Dallas PTA Had
Successful Year
Student Participation
Helped Boost Interest
The school year drawing to a
close has been one of the most suc-
cessful in the history of the Dallas
Borough Parent-Teacher Associa-
tion.
Although | membership tickets
were not sold this year, the collec-
tion taken at each meeting reached
a satisfactory total before the end
of the year, enabling the Associa-
tion to close its chosen project, the
furnishing of sand tables to the five
lower grades. These tables were
completed in the school shop de-
partment, by pupils who worked
under the supervision of Howard
Tinsley.
Entertainment this year was fur-
nished almost entirely by the stu-
dent body. The only social affair
was the farmer dance held in Oc-
tober, a financial success.
The membership was increased
this year, the opinion being that
the participation of students in the
meetings tended to increase the in-
terest of the parents.
Special credit is given to mem-
bers of the school band, who, un-
der the direction of Howard Hal-
lock, entertained at every meet-
ing. The part of the entertaining
done by the classes was entirely
voluntary, no teacher having been
called upon to present his or her
class, but volunteering to do so.
The annual banquet went off as
smoothly as usual, and it was evi-
dent that the athletes, the band
members and the parents enjoyed
themselves.. The officers, headed by
Mrs. Frank Ferry, who has been re-
elected president, are looking for-
ward to a resumption of activities
in the fall, with increased interest,
and there are indications already of
an interesting program for 1939-40.
Germany Invites Band
Montrose School Band, directed
by M. D. Taylor, has been invited
to make a tour of Germany this
summer with all expenses paid by,
the German government. The in- |
vitation was made by the Music;
Department of the Reich Culture
Chamber, Berlin. The invitation
was not accepted for many reasons,
among them being the youth of
many of the players whose parents
would hardly consent to their go-
ing on such a long journey. So
far as is known the offer is the
first of its kind ever made to a
high school band. Although it will
not go to Germany, the Montrose
Bank will make a trip to the
World's Fair in New York City.
Gets College Honor
The election of forty-six students
to membership in the Dramatic
Club of Cornell University has been
announced. Among them is Miss
Jane Banker, '42, College of Arts
and Sciences, ‘of Hays Corners. She
was elected to associate member-
ship in the costumes department.

To Receive Coveted Legion Award
Harold Brobst and Irene Blessing,
members of the eighth grade class
of Dallas Borough schools, have
been recommended for the coveted
American Legion scholastic award,
according to T. A. Williammee,
supervising principal.
The awards are being sponsored
in the borough and in several other
local schools by Daddow-Isaacs Post,
American Legion. The choice in
the borough school was made by
the faculty.
Brobst was chosen because of
outstanding qualities of honor, cour-
age, scholarship, leadership and ser-
vice. Miss Blessing was recom-
mended because she best fulfilled
the qualifications of courage, com-
panionship, character, service and
scholarship.
The awards will be made at an
assembly program, with American
Legionnaires in charge.

that this Beacon Feeding Plan helps to pro-
duce big, rugged pullets—at low cost. Briefly,
you feed 70% of scratch grain with only 30%
of Beacon “18” Growing Mash. This mash is
so rich in digestible proteins that it actually
takes 70% of scratch grains to balance it.
