PAGE FOUR SOCIAL ACTIVITIES Harris School P.-T. A. Assn. | Holds Last Session Of Term Harris School Parent-Teacher Association held the last regular meeting of the term Wednesday afternoon in the Harris School auditorium. This was one of the largest attended and interesting meetings of the year. A splendid program was pre- pared by Mrs. Mary Ely, pro- gram chairman. The meeting was called to order by the presi- dent, Mrs. Carl Bervaldi, and the assembly joined in singing ‘Am- erica” which was followed by a prayer lead by Rev. Tolle. The spelling contest _partici- pated in by the 16 best spellers from all 4th, 5th and 6th grades was won by Burnell Sands who was given a hard fight by Thom- as Dion. Dr. Wm. R. Warren, city health | officer, who was the guest speak- er for the afternoon gave an en- lightening talk on the much dis- cussed subject of infantile para- lysis, which did much to eleviate | the fear so prevalent homes. Dr. Warren expressed pleasure in the large attendance, adding that it speaks well for the schools and community to find such in- terest of parents in the school. It is the opinion of Dr. Warren that the disease under discussion is not easily transmitted. It is not contagious in the same sense that measles, whooping cough, ete. is. Seldom do they find more than one in the family af- fected. Since there are but four cases reported in contradiction to “many” as rumor has it there is no necessity for closing the schools. As little is known by medical science concerning this form of sickness no precautions can be taken other than the avoidance of crowds, personal and home cleanliness, and clean, plain, wholesome foods. Rev. Tolle, general chairman of the lunch room project, thanked those who were instrumental in the progress and success of the lunch room. Since those who have had the opportunity to work on the pmject realize the great benefit derived from this branch of P.-T. A. work the as- sociation voted in favor of Mrs. Charlotte Haskins’ motion to sponsor the lunch room project the coming term if WPA authori- ties will assure them the neces- sary and greatly appreciated help as in the past. y: in many Lions’ Anniversary Charter Night Banquet Big Success; The Key West Lions Club held their First Anniversary Charter Night Banquet in honor of Lionesses and Guests last eve- ning at the Boca Chica Fishing Resort Restaurant, and everybody in attendance were loud in praise of the affair.
