School Notes.
Last Saturday after school, the
children had gathered in the school
yard and came into the school house
with their arms laden with bundles of
all sizes and descriptions. How they
could manage to congregate all the
little folks without the knowledge of
the teachers and so quietly slip into
the school house is a miracle. The
older girls and boys served a very de-
licious lunch consisting of salad. sand
:yiches. cake and coffee After the
lunch both of the teachers were
presented with pair Of white gloves
and silver manicure file. This was a
'reaf' surprise to the teachers and will
long be remembered as such by them
The teachers Miss Flozdal and Miss
Eckblad. wish to thank all who helped
make this such pleasant surprise.
