at Meeting With Mrs. Mitchell, Leader.
~~~
To The Democrat:
With each member reading and emphasizing parts of the Children's Charter, the
Blue Ridge Parent - Teacher meeting of November 20 proved an instructive one.
With Mrs. B. E. Mitchell, program chairman, Miss Eunice Swinnea was presented
and gave the "History and Origin of the White House Conference," at which time
the children's charter was outlined. A most entertaining feature of the program
was the singing of several songs by the pupils. State and national dues were
reported paid and individual members cards distributed.
During the business session it was decided to have a pre - Thanksgiving sale of
farm products.
