The Paront-Te:ichcrs Association
of tho Central Building met Decem
ber 20 1921 w Ith Blxteen members
present.
The moetlng was opened by' Mrs.
ed Grayum the president. Mrs.
Karnest Ashbury acted us secretary
in tho absence of Mrs. Hob Strayhorn
The work of the sanitation committee
not being completed they asked for
longer time which was granted. The
Kit Aid committee reported to have
furnished Ued Cross dressings and
drugs to the amount of $4.04 to the
Central and West Ward schools. The
report was adopted und the treasurer
instructed to pay the amount from
th' treasury of tho Association.
The program for tho meeting was
opened with respouso to rol'-call be
ing answered with an opinion on the
idvisabilty of women occupying po
sitions on the school board. Pome
good talks were made on wom;iu's fit
ness for such a place. This thought
was allowed to run into Woman Suf-
frage which led to an Appeal from
the president for all women to ay
their poM-tax in due time to get the
privilege to vote at the elections for
bonds for the new school building
now under consideration. If a word
from the reporter will add any
weight to this appeal she would like
to urge that heed be given to tho call.
The future wcfare of Snyder schools
and the coming generation do so
much depend on the success of this
movement to furnish nnd equip for
better teaching In our community.
Good rosponso was made by all on
program and the hour was pleasant-
ly Rpont In a profitable work of vital
interest to every citizen of Snyder
for the welfare of any town rests
very largely In the education of the
young children who are to become
the future citizens of that town or
some other town of our state.
