The junior class is having its troubles.
Last years junior class held reception and
dancing party in the armory and this years
class has desire to do the same. Supt.
Austin however declined to give the class
the privilege of using the armory, partly on
the grounds that as the schools were In ses-
sion In the building every day there would
be no opportunity for getting the armory
ready for the reception without interfering
with the work of the schools. A class COM
mittee took the matter to the board and
found even more opposition than Supt
Austin had shown to their plans. The
board went so far as to inform them that as
irons of the school that the junior party or
reception should not be dancing party, they
did not like to have them give such party
and recommended that they do not give the
same, at least as dancing party, out of re-
spect to the wishes of those patrons of the
schools who are opposed to it. The class is
not exactly unanimous however in Its
acquiescence In the views of the members
of the school board and is considering the
advisability of securing other quarters for
the party.
Owing to some unexplainable oversight
THE TINES neglected to say in Its last
weeks report of the meeting of the Maple
River Farmers Club that the club men,
bers, the party Of nearly dozen OwOsso
citizens who were present. and Its own
representative were all most royalty enter |
tanned by Mr.. and Mrs. 8. r. Cook and |
their son and daughter, Mr.. Will and Miss |
Otie Cook. 1t Is said that the truest hospl- |
tally is the kind that makes Its recipients |
forget that they are guests, but THE TIMES |
Is not In the habit Of finding itself so COM
pletely forgetful Of the fact that 1t has been
as to leave out all reference to |
the hosts and hostesses to whom It was in
debted for entertainment and who were at /
the same time the hosts and h0stesses of
the society whose meeting 1t was reporting,
when 1t comes to print the report Of that |
And this is especially true when |
the mere statement of the names Of the en-
tertainers would have been sufficient to let |
almost every reader Of this paper know that |
the entertainment provided, from the mo-
ment the guests drove into the yard to the |
time when, after a most delightful and SUBJ |
stantial supper, where the boards almost |
literally wsrped from the weight of the
good things to eat, was of the most pleas
ant and considerate kind. And, as is usual
in such cases, THE TIMES presumes that the
omission Of the names Of the hosts and
hostesscs was really matter of relief to
them; that they would rather entertain two
club meetings than to hear or see them
selves commended for single one. But
The TIMES owes them, the club, its read
ere, and Itself an apology for the omission.
