This was the suggestion made at the regular meeting of the Stanley Humphries Parent Tea- cher Association in the Library Room of the high school Monday evening. It grew out of a discussion of the pros‘ and cons of the point system whereby the House at the the largest number of parents re- presented at each PTA meeting, is awarded five points. Mrs, J, Raine suggested that parents shouldn't need such an incentive to become PTA mem- bers and attend meetings regu- larly. Some students are objecting to the scheme, too, reported Mr, J. Buhr, it wins them points t have not earned, A LITTLE ADVICE Give your livestock a lift to sturdy “health .and rapid growth wiht BALAN- CED feed, containing the proper propor- tions of antibiotics, ‘trace minerals and ‘vitamins, Remember: it ‘isn't HOW a they eat, but WHAT they. eat that makes the big difference in your live- stock profits, If you have a feeding prob- lem, we have the answer.

At Monday's meeting, there were 16 parents represent- ing House Two and 13 for each of the others. House Two thus wins five points and each of the others, three points. ; G. Martini explained that intensive efforts are being made by the executive to secure a larger membership and attend- ance at meetings. PTA member- ship here totals 50 out of .some 300 families. The point scheme is an effort to induce more parents to attend, “However,” Mrs,. Martini quip- ped, “I think we need a diamond pin to get the parents out.” _Families in Canada’s large cities spent an average of $6.78 per person per week for food in the first half of 1953, compared of 1952, with $7.52 in the last four months Life At With Mercedes S.HHS.
