grand parade through the principal
streets of the town, advertising the
carnival anu box social which.-was to be
given at night. Each grade was dress.
ed to represent something different,
some being Red Cross nurses, others
doctors and comedians.
The parade was led by one of the
towns Oldest citizens dressed as Uncle
Sam carrying Old Glory, followed by
the high school band, and each class in
order.
At one thirty in the afternoon the
students and patrons assembled to wit
