Mrs. Holliday-Sponsor Jean Rudd-President Estelle McCarthy-Reporter * * * The Mothers’ Council enjoyed an unusual meeting at the “Y”. Mon day, February 27. Many features were a part of the program, main ly Mrs. Travers' lecture on “Fam ily Relations”. The topic, “In . I.aws”, was most effective being applicable to all. She related reali sympathy would abound in the hemes if the parents would in help- i ful ways put themselves in each] others’ place. If kindly and for giving regards were the rule in all (households, how it would vanish barriers and domestic misunder standings Joy would supersede conflict. Just such simple rules would solve the world’s problems. Another feature being the chor us, which Miss Rao Lee Jones con ducts. She put forth more zeal r.nd vivacity than the chorus had ever known. The group respond ed in Ike manner with their voices in the song “Trouble Don’t Last Always’’ after which a handker chief shower was presented to Miss j Jones as a token of appreciation for her services. Miss Jones has accepted a position in the South which will mean a loss to the many Chorus’ and Glee Clubs of the ci ty. She has the gift of enabling one to sing whether he thinks he ran or not. Many clubs will miss her, however, Miss Willis, who accom panied Miss Jones, will take up her work with the assistance of Mrs. Hieronymous, member of the Mo thers’ Council. Mesdames Gladys j Bell and Marie Robinson will con I t'nue as soloist. .
