A regular meeting of the Society for Community Betterment was held Jan. 9, 1921, the president and the secretary being present. The minutes of the last meeting were read and approved.
Mr. A offered the following resolution: "Resolved, That ill-nourished children in our public schools should be furnished with a hot luncheon." Mr. B moved to postpone it to the next regular meeting. These motions were laid on the table after the chair, in response to a parliamentary inquiry, had explained that a motion was not killed by being laid on the table, but that it could be taken from the table by a majority vote at any time not assigned to another subject, provided no question was pending.[1]
- ↑ All rulings of the chair that may be of value as a precedent should be entered in the minutes. Similar answers to parliamentary inquiries should also be entered.
