POINT NOIR SCHOOL

Crowley Signal April 18, 1929

(note: The title and the content of the article do not agree. I can only assume the 
meeting was held in the Point Noir school)

The Point Noir Woman’s Club met Monday April 15. Mrs. Erin D. Canan came to 
complete arrangements for local house dress contest which will be held Thursday, 
April 25.

Eleven of the eighteen women who entered the contest had their dresses ready for 
inspection.  Mrs. Canan commented upon the great improvement in the dresses 
over last year.

It will be a much tighter race for first place this year than last for there are so many 
more well made dresses of becoming and harmonious colors.

In February Mrs. Canan gave a “pie demonstration” at the home of Mrs. Gabriel 
Daigle, which was great success.

The children have pie in their lunches more often now and the ladies put into 
practice every thing they are learning.

Some of the club members attended the demonstration given by Mrs. Cline in 
Church Point in March.  We wish to express our appreciation for their lovely 
hospitality.

The value of these clubs to a community cannot be estimated.  The ladies are 
putting into practice what they learn and their families are getting the benefit.
“Dad and children” have better meals and more attractive homes to come home to 
at the close of the day and everyone is happier.
