Lecture by Dr Henry Houck Delights Local Teachers
The hall was packed with teachers as Dr Henry Houck of Pennsylvania deputy State superintendent spoke at the high school hall last night. A pre event dinner was hosted by the training school faculty and pupils for about 60 people including the superintendent and school board members and their families. Miss Gertrude Edmund acted as toastmaster and Miss Tan replied for the school. The talk praised music in schools and teaching students to study, and supported a retired teachers fund and public speaking training.
