MARGARET FORESMAN, Society Editor S:;OP HOPPING WITH JAXON Friday, and that little vacation | with Ronnie in Jamaica is al-| ready fading into the limbo of | memory. Well, gee it was won-| derful, and hello again! Tell you | all about it — any time I see} you, if yru’ll listen, that is. | Hey! Did you know that/ Mickey Mouse was born this; date ir 1928? That makes him | practically marrying age. Wonder | if Minnie knows. Gee, he’s a| great guy, loved by kids andj| grownups alike. A movie always | seems better to me if there is a cartoon with Mickey. He must also be quite a rich little fellow. Did you ever try to count up the number of articles made — all for kids, of course, with the Mickey Mouse label? They are really countless. Well, congratulations Mickey, we all | hope you live to be older than | Methuselah. Times may change, | and centuries turn, but people always like a nice little guy like you. Me took | Wher we walked into Ideal | Togs this week, we blinked, (though modern engineering stoppe“ and took a second — long look. Well, you couldn't blame us either. There on a jaunty tricycle was a jauntier monkey! He was complete with red cap, and all dressed up in a big red bow. He seem- ed to be trying to tell us some- thing — and it went like this — The dollies are here! Don't say we didn’t warn you, but we look to see dollies replacing babies any day now. There is a big twenty-four- leave these lonely little mites there. I suddenly thought, “what a wonderful Christmas or birthday present for some little girl.” Newest occupant at the Pet Shop — and the Peke's favor- ite playmate is a beautiful fo: squirrel wearing . jaunty vel- vet collar with ells. In spite of the danger of being termed “squirrely” I must report that we had quite a conversation, followed by hand holding, and the founding of . mutual ad- miration society. STORK ANNOUNCEMENT: Snonky, our favorite Siamese cat announces with pride the birth of twins! Two cute liitle white fellows with blue, blue eyes who will soon be show:ng their m:nma’s lovely and dis- tinciive coloring. Congrats to the proué mamma, and the Pet Shop too!

After writing pads on which the | members present were asked to make suggestions and criticism re- garding the meeting were distrib. uted. Each mother present rose and introduced her self ar? told what grade her children were in. The timely question “What is a | | good room mother?” was raised by Mrs. Thompson, and Mrs. Eliza- beth Singleton was asked for the reply. Mrs. Singleton stated that (1) a good room mother works in- dividually with the teacher on such | projects as class parties or picnics or on such activities as aiding in- digent families of children in the room. (2)) She also works collecti- vely with P. T. A. committees on fund raising affairs such as the Halloween carnival and May Day festival. Study course chairman, Mrs. Margaret Foresman, reminded the | group that a certain amout of time is devoted to the study course at each monthly meeting For this month’s lesson, Mrs. Foresman used the theme ‘‘Parent Children Behavior. It was poir’ ~ out that these attiludes constitute a happy home: giving and permissive parents who think of things for children to do in the way of helpful physical tasks; a positive attitude on the part of the parents with regard to school re- port cards offering help and not criticism in the case of poor cards; allowing children to romp and tum- ble playfully with one another; and a pleasant feeling of seniority be- ing assured older children in the | family. 4 Mrs. Bess DeLand led the dis- cussion on the Halloween festival to be held on the school grounds Friday, October 24, at 4 p. m.
