Teen-Age Event Who says the teen-agers never have any fun around here? The Horizon Club of teen-age girls recently sponsored a Hamburger Fry and Swimming Party. Everyone passing the Commuinty House that night (June 15th) slowed down to watch the girls cook hamburgers over an open charcoal grill ? a new addition to the Community recreational equipment. It was a new experience?that was evident! Sometimes the grease caused the flames to soar, scaring the cooks to death, but all agreed that the result was delish. The Club hopes to sponsor several parties and trips this summer for the teens of the village. If you want to get in on the fun, call 311 for information. See you at the next party.

He finished with the words, "And the son returned, and the father was so glad that he killed the fatted calf in his honor," and then asked if any member of the class could tell a similar story. One small boy stood up and announced: "My brother ran away from home, sir, and after a long time he returned." "Yes," encouraged the teacher, "And 1 suppose your father killed the fatted calf for him?" "Not exactly," said the lad, "But he half killed the prodigal son."
