MESA
MESA TEACHERS
ARE ENTERTAINERS
The Guests Grammar and High School
Boards and Others.

That the teachers of the grammar
can deny, least Of all those who were
present at the most delightful social
held at the new school building on
East Newell avenue. The grammar
school teachers were hosts and host
esses, and the grammar school board,
the nigh school board and the high
school teachers, besides a number of
invited guests, were the guests OF
honor. The entertaining board did
themselves proud, and those who were
present Will long remember the occa-
sion.
In the court of the new building a
splendid program was rendered. A
piano solo by Miss Maude Shrine was
the first number on the program, then
a double quartet by pupils of Mrs.
Huber, which was very fine, and a
great deal of favorable comment was
heard. Miss Ruth Turner then re-
cited very beautifully, ''Laska.' Mrs.
L. w. Bartholomew sang most sue
cessfully, Sing Me to Sleep" Mrs.
Clair II. COombs gave a very humor-
Gus reading that pleased all, following
a selection which was appreciated by
all. Then the evening for a short
time was given to games and CONVEX
sation, after which the guests were
invited into Miss Gibson's room, which
had been most beautifully arranged
as a dining room. The decorations
were very artistically arranged, the
color scheme being purple and gold,
even the flowers carried out the beau
tiful effects. The table was very apt
ly arranged. and all in all the scene
presented a most restful and pleasing
effect Hand painted place cords of
California peoples, done by grammar
school pupils, were at each plate, and
in themselves were a work of art.
The lunch was delicious and very
daintily served by students of the
grammar school, who acted as walters
and Mattresses. Toasts were given
by a number of those present, Pro-
fessor p. NJ. Jones acting as toast
