Miss Donna Jean Roberts Judge Bowden Hun Speaks At Recent P of Polk County was the principal Judge Hunt chose as his topic without the experience of adults. “When they read of today’s frigh- | tening scientific developments they view these with special alarm be- | | cause they do not have the back-| ground of a first hand knowledge | of history to stabilize their think-| ing. It is important to teach our) children the value of honesty. “Young people today are no bet-/| ter or worse than they ever were | but today’s youth has less super- vision than ever before because the diversified interests of different age groups keep parents and chil- dren apart. They do not work and play together in family groups. “Down through the ages the church has been the center of cul- tural activity and so it should be today. “All children need to learn of religion and be on ‘speaking terms’ with God so that in times when human beings fail in fulfilling their needs they know how to turn to a higher power. “Children should be taught res- ponsibility, we try to shield them from the hard knocks, but it is through these that they grow. Un- til we teach our children discipline they will never learn to discipline themselves.” Mrs. H. E. Cunio of Miami, pre- sident of Dist. 10, F. C. P. T., pre- sided at the meeting. The Invoca- tion was by Rev. Richard Coulter of the Southernmost Presbyterian Church. Guests were welcomed by Mrs. H. C, Campbell, president of Mon- roe County Council P. T. A. and by Mr. Horace O’Bryant, Superin- tendent of Public Instruction. Mr. O'Bryant spoke briefly say- ing, “In order to retain our world leadership we must out-train our future citizens. “We have 57,000 more school chil- dren in the state of Florida now than a year ago so that more class- rooms and more teachers are im- perative if we are to maintain our educational standards. Mrs. Cunio introduced the follow- ing state officers and guests, Mrs. W. L. Mussett, vice president. F. C. P. T.; Mrs. T. V. Oxtoby, vice president F. C. P. T.; Judge Bow- den Hunt, Judge of Juvenile Dom- estic Relations Court of Polk Coun- ty; Judge Eva Warner Gibson, Ju- venile Court, Monroe County; Mr Robert Turner, past president F. E.

A.,” was ably discussed by Mrs. Mussett, Mrs. Oxtoby, Mrs. Russell and Judge Hunt. At 12:10 a delightful sandwich luncheon was served in the dining hall by the women of Southern- most Presbyterian Church. The afternoon session was open- ed with community singing led by Mrs, Robert Dopp. A round table discussion followed with Mrs. W. L. Mussett as moderator.
