AYCOCK P. T. A.
December 6, 1934
THE P. T. A.
Seventh grade parents please come
to P. T. A.
You'll never regret the gas bill you
had to pay.
We want you to get acquainted with
our teacher and school,
Then you will see why we are anxious
to keep each and every rule,
Too, we are working for a prize,
A lovely prize that delights all eyes,
The prize is a beautiful picture of the
Pilgrims so brave.
Who were going to church, their re-
ligion to save.
If you are coming be early please,
And stand up promptly, at your ease.
The seventh grade is excited and
wants the prize so much.
The beautiful picture of the Pilgrims
going to church.
If you have motherless children who
have to live with another.
You stand up for them as if you were
their mother.
So please on
Dec. 6 come to the
P. T. A.
And win this beautiful picture for us
forever and a day.
To ever have this inspiring picture
before our eyes.
It will help us to higher and nobler
things rise.
