Misses Margaret Bums, Harriet Todd, Annie Lee Young, Edna Hartness, and Mrs. H. O. Swiften berg are the ladies who take part in this comedy to be pre sented at the high school auditorium. The gentlemen may do their part, but how could there be a play with out the ladies? I’m fer ’em! Kotex or Modess 20c, 2 for 39c Easter Surprise A very noveil way of giving a shower was witnessed by those taking part in the Easter egg hunt at Mc Cullough school house last week. The McCullough Sunday School sponsored the hunt, and about fifty members of the school were present to enjoy it. The ladies of the community told the preacher, Rev. C. A. Calcote to look in the school house until he found a nest, and after looking vainly, the preacher gave up. Then the curtain was raised and on the stage was a very atbtractive “nest”—in the center of which was canned goods and other edibles. The nest was made of pine needles, intertwined with jonquils and daffodils. “Aunt Ban” Many of you probably know with out even reading this who “Aunt Ban” is, for so many know her by that name. To those of you who don’t, I would describe her as one of the most thoughtful, kindest, and sweet est persons I have ever known—Mrs. Eugene S. Blease. The reason for this “bouquet”? To express my ap preciation for the nice things she has done for me. MRS. M. A.
