Valentine Social

The ladies of Syringa Circle No.
21, w. o. W., gave one of the best
entertainment of the season at their
hall in this city Monday evening,
to the members of Woodmen camp
and invited friends.
Hearts were trump during the
entire evening. The hall wa S
beautifully decorated with festoons
of hearts. You drew your partner
for the evening by matching brok-
en- heart, the candies, the cakes
and the sandwiches for lunch were
hearts.
The ladies had prepared a nice
program, the first number of which
was a piono solo by Miss Lelah
Bartholomew, then a duet by Miss
Esther Copeland and Mrs. F. N.
Hayden, and then was presented
a farce comedy entitled Toby, the
Fool" which was well received,
A piono solo by Mrs. ]. w. Wilson.
Then came trouble for the gentle
men. The names of four gentle
men were drawn and the unlucky
four were taken to the ante room
where they were given paper and
pencil and compelled to decribe the
dress of their lady partner. Then
they were brought in and read their
description to the crowd. Accord
ing to these descriptions there were
some very peculiar dresses worn
that evening. Four more gentle
men were drawn who had to tell
the exact manner in which they
proposed to the girl who is now
their wife. The style of asking
her" has not changed much from
what it was when we we're young.
Then came the postoffice where
everybody received their valentine,
after which other proceedings were
stopped and lunch was served. 1t
is entirely unnecessary to say that
this lunch was equal to any lunch
served by these autocrats of the
home, and the hungry crowd plain
ly showed that it was appreciated.
And last, but not least, was pres
ented little game called Bingo".
Everybody took a hand at the game
and everybody bingoed until they
were tired out.

Syringa Circle will live to give a

The Parents and
Teachers Meeting


Twenty of the parents, teachers
and school officers met at the High
School building last Saturday pur-
suant to a call of County School
Superintendent Coin, and many
matters pertaining to the welfare
of the schools were brought up and
discussed.
The first speaker was C. B. Cros-
no, who spoke on school laws, and
in the discussions which followed
answered many questions. Mr..
Crosno is an enthusiastic school
man, and having been school
officer for the past twenty or more
years, is well versed in all questions
pertaining to schools.
Prof. Weber spoke on "Athle-
tics". Here Mr.. Weber is in his
element, he enjoys athletics and be-
lieves they are essential to the
school boy and girl. He raised the
proposition of building a gymnas-
ium for the school. He wants a
building built near the school house
where the pupils may at all times
go and exercise. He had an esti-
mate of a building 40X70 which
would cost in the neighborhood of
500, and wondered if those pres
ent thought it possible to build
such a building. In the discussion
which followed Mr.. Weber was as
sured that nothing was impossible
when it came to any needs of the
school in Toledo. The High School
boys and girls will start the ball
rolling to raise funds for this build
ing within a few days.
Prof. Wilson spoke on school
grounds, which is serious question
with our school. We haven't much
of ground, even in summer, and
in the winter we have only a nice
soft muddy place for the children
to play on. Considerable discus
sion was made on the subject.
Some thought the basement of the
school house should be fitted up as
a play ground for the rainy season.
Someone said Toledo was dead
and away behind the times, which
was enthusiastically denied by Mr..
Crosno and others who cited the
fact that there is never an improve
ment asked of our people that is
turned down. Toledo is always
alive about matters pertaining to
/ the welfare of the town or schools.
Toledo has always had DIS good or
better schools than any town of her
size in this or any other state. We
have always kept ahead Of the
times in our school work, and al
ways will.
At 1850 O'Clock in the evening
the meeting was again called, when
much larger number were present.
Speakers for the evening were Miss
Ewing, Hans Olson, Prof. Weber,
Mrs. Coin and Rev. Rogers. All
their subjects were interesting and
much interesting discussion was
made on the different topics.
These meetings are always pro-
ductive of much good and it is hop
ed they may be held often.
