EDHUBE P. T. A.
Friday night is always a great
night in Edhube, as that is our P. T.
A. meeting time.
Nov. 9, we were entertained by a
program prepared by pupils from
the four lady teachers. It was well
prepared and enjoyed by the audi-
ence. The parents are to entertain
the pupils at our next meeting.
Aren’t you wondering who will be the
better?
A short business session was
transacted. Our teachers are saying,
“we want more books please.’’ The
demand is almost fulfilled.
The school grounds have been
landscaped and plans are to set out
shrubs as soon as we are favored with
a rain. Our goal is to have the pret-
tiest campus in the county.
Edhube has always stood 100 per
cent for education. But for the first
time in the history,, we are now
having night school, for the parents,
so it is not only getting. Tom. Dick
and Harry off to school but mother
and dad are now added to the list.
As one of our older settlers has
said Edhube is getting education,
you can just see it floating in the
air.
It was decided our P. T. A. would
meet every Friday night, thus keep-
ing the enthusiasm all in trim.
The deep well has been completed
a pump installed and water is no
longer a shortage at school.

this token of love on the part of her
friends. She wishes here to express

gift. There were 14'members pres-

Miss Eldridge was with us at this
time and was given the first of the
meeting as she was to meet with the
Ector P. T. A. She first discussed
the fair work and how we might im-
prove it another yeax*. Also outlined
the work for our club another year.
Then a demonstration on how we
might make our hooked rugs and
mats, which each member is required
to make, was given. We enjoyed
having Miss Eldridge with us but
were sorry she had to leave.

county and loans are now available
for repaii’ing residences.
In addition to repairing residences,
funds may be secured for improving
conveniences in the home. Details of
the plan may be secured by persuing
a booklet which Mr. Hendrix will be
glad to give those who are interested.
The money is available at a reason-

other workmen of this character, and
it is obvious that when improvements
are made on residences over the
county, that hundreds of men will be
given jobs.
The government estimates that it
will take $1,600,000,000 to properly
repair the residences of American
citizens and $200,000,000 are avail-
able now. In many cities already
thousands of contracts have'been let

REFLECTION
I’m but a dull and lifeless bit
Of baser metal quite unfit
To make the world a better place,
Dear Lord, without Thy wond’rous grace:
But, oh, since others’ lives are gray,
They need the glowing light of day—
Please polish up this metal base,
Reflect in it Thy shining face.

The Mission study book “Suzuki
Looks At Japan,” the W. M. S. First
Methodist church is studying is be-
ing presented in an intensely interest-
ing way by Mrs. A. S. Broadfoot. The
first chapter was given Monday af-
ternoon. At roll call each one re-
sponded with some item of interest
about Japan.
The playlet “An American Lady
Meets the Suzukis”, was very enter-
taining and instructive. The Ameri-
can visitor, Mrs. B. L. Adams, Mrs.
Suzuki, Mrs. J. C. Brannon the
Suzuki children, Eugenia and Mary
Ella Bi’annon. Their pretty costumes
and cozy little Japanese home added
much to the charm of the play. The
Suzuki family is one among many of
the educated Christian families of the
middle class, whose influence for
good is being wonderfully felt in the
turbulent Japan of today. The ladies
have been i*equested to give the play-
let in Ladonia.
Chapter 2 will be studied Monday
next. Mrs. Broadfoot says be sure
to have a question ready to ask about
Japan when the i*oll is called.
There was quite a large crowd
present, among our visitors wei*e Mrs.
G. W. Morgan and Miss Dora Light-
foot from Riverby and Mrs. Ike Big-
gerstaff, Mrs. Raleigh Ryan, Martha
Ann Ryan, Mary Jim Carmichael,
Eugenia and Mary Ella Bi’annon.
