l AS in former years, through the fine cooperation of the Daughters of ! the American Revolution, and the Ladies auxiliary of the American l Legion, awards were made to all students who were perfect in at tendance. The local chapter of the 1 D. A. k, cooperating with the state organization, awarded beautiful gold buttons to all pupils in the foreign born classes. while to those students who had perfect attendance for three years, s2.50 gold pieces were presented. The Ladies auxiliary of the Legion awarded appropriate | certificates to all pupils in the ele- mentary grades who had been faith full in attendance. and also gave spe- cial certificates 10 all foreign born pupils who attended for two years without missing a session.
 Thirty eight pupils. q young men and 17 young women were gradu- atod from the elementary grade classes Of the evening schools and received diplomas at the graduation eXerclses held at the Central junior high school on April | This year as in the past the graduating class and women. who appreciated the opportunities afforded them to gain further education. The class heard an inspiring address by Dr. Abel Ahlquist and another by George Lc- Witt, chairman of the evening school committee.
 An analysis of the records of all students for the year disclosos some very interesting data. It is now considered very ordinary for a man and wife. or brothers and sisters to come to school every night. rain Or otherwise, in order to acquire a knowledge Of the English language and to otherwise improve them selves.
 Thirty-onc teachers and three principals were employed to teach the various classes in our evening schools. Twenty gave instruc ton to the classes for the foreign born adults. five instructed in the elementary grade classes, and one typepriting teacher vas employed. In. addition to this force. specialists in supervised games, dances. etc. were engaged to serve every two weeks for the socials conducted dur ing these intervals. Programs ln cluded supervised dancing, games. instrumental and vocal music by both teachers and pupils, commun- ity sings and educational movies. Clubs were formed for those pupils, particularly girls. who did not wish 10 participate in the usual games and dances. etc. and meetings were held every social night. and the time. under the guidance of two teachers vas devoted to scarf paint ing and designing, as we'll as lace work
 The recent successful exhibit held at the senior high School served as a fine vehicle for the display of some of the work accomplished by all the students in our evening schools. The progress made by these students showed evidences Of hard work on their part and excel lent help from the various teachers on the force. Of particular interest in the exhibit were the photogra phs of the various classes in operation and of those who had distinguished themselves by superior work and faithful attendance,

bridge and Celia danced or amused
herself with the younger crowd.
Lisi Duncan came TOR her on two
separate afternoons and they drove
to the beach Celia summed herself
lazily on the sand while Lisi swan
and played in the breakers.
Wherever Lisi went there was al
ways a group gathered around her.
Lisi accepted Celia as one of her
playmates, and others followed I'M
questioningly.
Celia's father adopted the habit
of driving to hardwood two or
three evenings each week. Occa-
sionally he arrived in time for din
ner, sometimes later.
He seemed drawn by the home
like atmosphere of the place. On
these evenings Evelyn Parsons al
ways spent a little more time at her
dressing table. She affected sheer
black and white or pale green cos
tunes which brought out the gold
Of her hair.
She wore perfume with the faint
est touch of heady, exotic sweetness,
When the three IF them were to-
gether, Evelyn found frequent OPP
portunities for showing her affec-
ton for Celia. She praised the girl
constantly. At such times John
Mitchell looked pleased.
Tod Jordan called often. Some
times he drove down in the after
noon. 1t did not seem strange to
Celia that Jordan never was ham
pered by business ties.
In this new world men and women
both lived leiSurely. No one she
knew seemed to work except her
father. Once or twice she had
heard Jordan speak vaguely of e'in-
veStments." Celia supposed that re-
lieved him of labor.
AS the days slipped by she began
to take a new interest in Jordan.
No answer had arrived from her
letter to Barney. When Celia was
alone she pondered about this and
pouted.
When Jordan appeared she was
less restrained in her greeting
Barney was neglecting her and be-
ing hateful. Very well-she'd show
how much she cared!
Celia's changed attitude was not
lost on Evelyn Parsons. With in
finite pains and care Mrs. Parsons
was setting the stage for her
triumph.
On a Saturday morning Lisi ar
ranged a picnic. It was to take
place that afternoon. BY a miracle
Dicky Caruthers was able to get
away from town, and Celia and
Jordan were to join them.
Lisi had wheedled from her father
permission to drive the coupIe-on
an invented excuse, of course. She
would have the lunch packed, pick
up the two men and call for Celia
at 4 o'clock.
But fathers coming down to-
night" the girl said, still holding
the telephone and turning to Mrs.
Parsons. "What'll I do?"
ooh, we can manage that. Run
along. I'll tell him you're having
dinner with friends. It will be ali
right.

HOOVER IGNORES
ARGUMENT OVER
CUSTOMS HEADS
Prohibition Battle Stirred by

BY JOSEPH F. WASNEY
United Press stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-Prest-
dent Hoover today had been drawn
directly into the situation caused
BY Anti-Saloon League charges
against customs officials in New
York, which have stirred up again
the wet and dry controversy here.
The President, however, will take
no immediate part in the con
troversy resulting from efforts Of
lanes K. Shields, superintendent
OF the New Jersey Anti-Saloon
League, to prevent the reappoin:-
ment of Colonel Arthur F. Foran,
comptroller Of customs at New
York.
This was learned authoritatively
today at the White House where 1t
was said Hoover would assume re-
sponsibility for the matter only
when the actual business of reap
pointing Foran comes to the Presl-
dents desk. Meanwhile, Hoover Is
leaving the matter in the hands OF
the treasury department, which
recommend customs officials Tor

Shields has no appointment with
the President today, it was learned.
although it was reported he would
seek an audience at the White
House. Philip Citing, collector OF
customs at New York, and other
port executives also are targets OF
the dry leaders fire.
Foran's term expires Jan. 81.
Thus the matter of his reappoint-
ment is up to F. esident Hoover. De-

that sparkIes F!

No one can deny the Importance
of having the hair arranged in the
style best suited to the individual
type. Much of the effect is lost,
however, unless the hair is kept
soft, abundant, lustrous.
A million busy women and girls
know the easiest way to keep the
hair in perfect condition is with
Dapderine. The first application
will show you how marvelously it
removes excess oil from the hair; /
cleanses it; makes it sparkle with
new life and lustre. It's so simple
to use Danderine. All you do is put
a little on your brush each time
you arrange your hair! The con-
siStent use of Danderine will dis
solve the worst crust of dandruff;
soothe, heal the scalp: stimulate the
growth of long, silky abundant hair.
Danderine isn't sticky or oily;
doesn't show. 1t makes the hair
easy to manage; holds it in place
for hours. "Set" your waves with
it and see how much longer they
stay in.
