The Rise of Jericho
Of course it will be an honor to
see such distinguished gentlemen as
Charlie Bowers, Kibler Williamson,
Henry Pruitt, George Cody and Carl
Ringer all in one play, the play being
“The Rise of Jericho” which is to be
at the high school tonight (April 4th),
but it will be even more of a pleasure
to see the ladies who are to be in it,
and who, heretofore have not even
had much mention. 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!

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.

army life up to the time he was kill
