We have now (March 1,1913) a paid membership of forty-five and have had as many as seventy-three in attendance at a single meeting. Our annual dues are only twenty-five cents, as we have no expense except postage. We meet in the courthouse at the same time the men hold their meeting in the same building. At the last meeting, February 22, several of the men left their meeting to come over to ours, especially to hear Mrs. Staples talk on Pettis County Home Makers' Conference. To stir up interest Mrs. Sneed and I telephoned every woman in the county we could reach by telephone and had each one tell her neighbors whom we could not reach in this way. The majority of our members are country women and we hope eventually to have representatives from every community in the county. We are especially anxious to get in close touch with the rural schools and in this endeavor we are meeting with hearty co-operation from the teachers and from the county superintendent of schools, Mr. T. R. Luckett. Results can be seen already in the schools, and we are aiming to make our Pettis county rural schools the best in the State. We are also planning to send a goodly delegation to the S'tate conference at Columbia next year and hope by that time to be able to report on much work Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Missouri.
