P.-T. A. Provides Aid for Needy Shortridge Pupils

Proceeds From Program to Be Given Nov. 24 to Help Fund. Shortridge high school pupils, whose parents are unable at present to keep them in school, are assisted by various agencies within the school itself. Foremost among these agencies is the Student Aid Fund, which is maintained chiefly through the work of the Parent-Teacher Association. Five years ago the only source of income for assistance was a small amount raised through the sale of lost and found articles. The responsibility became so great that it was assumed by the ParentTeacher Association under the presidency of Mrs. Thaddeus Baker. The work was continued under the administration of Mrs. George Losey. The officers for this year are as follows: President, Mrs. John J. Brandon; first vice-president and corresponding secretary, Mrs. s. M. Raymond: second vice-president and chairman student aid, Mrs. Glen Riser; third vice-president, Mrs. Mary Dye Beach; treasurer, Mrs. Oscar B. Brown; recording secretary, Miss Trella M. Wood; delegate to federation. Mrs. Thomas A. Cooper; social chairman, Mrs. E. C. Belzer; program chairman. Mrs. Ray Shearer Trent; music chairman, Mrs. L. S. Koehne; ways and means chairman, Mrs. Earl L. Shafer, and chairman of hostesses, Mrs. Lewis G Ferguson. To the ways and means committee is given the task of raising money. Last year, the association spent $1,000.98 for the following items for students who could stayin school only through this aid: Lunches, transportation. graduation expenses, Christmas baskets and books. The money is raised through voluntary contributions by members, gifts from clubs, classes, and individuals, and entertainments. Last week brought a check for SIOO from an interested man, “not even a parent,” as the ways and means committee explained. Last semester a play and dance netted more than $250 for the fund, and a similar entertainment is planned for Nov. 24 of this year. Books must be supplied to pupils more than 16 who can not afford them; the school city supplies them to younger pupils. Coats, shoes, even underwear, must be obtained in case of need. Sometimes another school in distress will call on Shortridge for coats or books. Students in better circumstances are asked to supply clothes and discarded books. Some of the school organizations assist in the collections and with gifts of money. The social committee, which gives 10-cent parties, devotes its surplus to student aid, as well as subscribing to the Community Fund. The dental clinic receives aid from the social committee. Five dollars will give some care to the teeth of eight children. The Christmas relief work includes baskets of food and clothing. and gifts of money made by students teachers and friends. Last Christmas the social committee supplied with food and clothing twenty groups of persons ranging from two to eight eachc. Gifts of canned goods contributed at a special performance at the Zaring theater were distributed through the Parent-Teacher Association. The administration makes every effort to adapt the program of the needy student and the working student to his necessities. It is sometimes made possible for those who can not afford to lunch at school to have short programs so that they may go home. Every effort is made to assist those who have jobs to carry on rheir work. Most of the relief work is carried on through the offices of Mrs. Della Thompson dean of girls; Miss Ina school nurse, and Miss Helen Pearson, home visitor for the public schools. The scholarship committee, under Miss Reeta Clark, of the English department, recommends for scholarships students who could not otherwise afford to attend college. Among the institutions granting such scholarships are the Indianapolis Foundation, Butler. Indiana university extension and Hanover. fe
