Many humorous experiences were related in reply to the roll call — "Our Most Embarrassing Moment". Arrangements were made for holding a third euchre on March 16 in Legion Hall. Tentative plans were also begun for the holding of a bazaar and baking sale during the second week of April. All proceeds will go to Hospital Fund- Mrs. Moir gave a report of course taken in Zurich and members who attended are being requested to display their work at the next meeting. A beautiful hand-made lace tablecloth was presented to the Institute by Mrs. Bruce Tuckey on behalf of her mother, Mrs, West. This lovely piece of work represents years of painstaking work. Appreciation of the gift was voiced, by the meeting and a committee was appointed to arrange for a ticket sale and subsequent draw. The proceeds from this sale should give the donation to the Hospital Fund a substantial boost.

Dorothy Baruch in her "We have to educate a person’s feelings as well as his thinking. It’s no good a man’s learning to make business in­ vestments if the knowledge is used to cheat other people. It’s no good learning about explos­ ives if the knowledge is iput to blowing up the world. We can’t let the seeds of strife and dis­ sension, prejudice and war multi­ ply unseen inside our children until they have overgrown the Whole of their emotional lives." Dr. Baruch also reminds us, "On the shoulders of parents and teachers falls the major task of imparting ways of our It is their privilege and their responsibility to make civilized people out of little little angels alike.” Fortunately, for and- parent, the children belong in way between these two extremes. Nevertheless, problems in his learning habits, his conduct,* his attitude yvill arise and only when teachers' and parents pool in­ formation and suggestions, are we doing our best ‘by Johnny. Ordinarily, during Education Week parents would be invited to spend an afternoon at school visiting the diffefrent classrooms and chatting with the teacher about their progress. At the Exeter Public School, Education week has caught us with our curtains down and all our thoughts concetrated on pre­ parations for the coming move. After the official opening, we are planning to give the parents an opportunity to visit the school during an afternoon and see the pupils in action. Since we can’t extend an invitation to visit the school during education week, we hope every parent will plan to visit us in our new classrooms after the Easter vacation. Dr. Harold C. Hunt Superin­ tendent of the Chicago Schools, has written a poem which is an inspiration to all teachers. We quote it in the sure knowledge that most Exeter parents real­ ize the immensity of the task they share with us.
