INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL
School began again Monday after
our two days Thanksgiving recess.
We wish to thank the parents who
helped paper the school room. We
surely appreciate it as it is so much
lighter than before. Hot lunches are
surely success. Mrs Arthur
Huff's baked beans, brown bread and
salad have been talked about ever
since they arrived. We never want
for anything but often have more than
we need. This is due to the help
of all the parents and we thank each
and every one.
Visitors the past month are Mrs.
Guy Boone, Mrs Mildred Webb, Mrs.
Steward Webb, MrsS Goss, Mrs. Henry
Hussey, Virginia Hussey, Mrs. Good
rich, Mrs. Nellie Taylor, Mrs Mabelle
Miller, Mrs. Florence Carr and little
son Robert, Mrs. Sadie Clark, Mrs.
Dinsmore and Bertha Young. We
were glad to welcome little Robert
Miller back to school again Monday
after several weeks absence due to i'll
health.
We are all busy getting our enter
tainment ready for Christmas now.
Probably to be given near the TWEEN
ty-first of December
Rena Tracey is the only one who
did not miss any words for the past
