Farm Women Raise Funds for Schoolhouse Stage, May 6, 1926

Paid $1,100 for Stage Fixtures for School House

Burgaw, N.C., May 4 (AP)—Farm women of the Atkinson community in Pender county have paid $1,100 for scenery and fixtures for the stage in the schoolhouse at Atkinson. The money was secured by a campaign for selling advertising space on the new curtain, which was sponsored by the parent-teacher association of the community, explains Miss Georgia Piland, the home agent.

Club members at the Rocky Point school were treated to a picnic recently, the agent reports, and plans were made for getting these girls to attend the short course at State College this summer.
