Sunday in Wa-Keeney.
Last Tuesday evening Mr.. and Mrs.
J. G. Cortright and Vernon Reppert
very pleasantly entertained the Sen
ior boys and Mr.. Niesley at a rock
party at the Cortright home. After
some very exciting games. the boys
were invited to the dining room
where delicious three course supper
was served. After supper they were
entertained with some of the latest
selections on the graphonola, which
were very pleasing. The boys report
a great time.
Friday, pril 10th, will be 'sschool
meetin' day. in Wa-Keeney. And,
by the way the new form of printed
notice of the annual meeting being
SO different from the old, familiar
form-attracts more than usual at
tentiod. 1t also arouses some curios-
ity las we'll as comment) on the part
of those who take the trouble to rea d
the notice, particularly because the
printed part of the notice and expla-
nation refers to the rate of tax levy
which may be made. There is no
cause for alarm. The new form of
notice simply enables the people to
comply with the later tax laws. How
evea, since our heaviest taxes are
those we vote upon ourselves Tor al
low our neighbors to vote upon u.s.
every voter should attend the annual
school meeting. and thereafter hold
their peace. Being present, if any
body tputs one over on him, he wi
at least know how it was done.
