planning on visiting the school

3Oth, is Homecoming Day
with open house to all alumni,
eliminating in a banquet at
$50 with music and entertain
ment and an informal pro-
gram which should make this
affair one that will stand out
in the history of Sank Centre

the Junior High School Audi

tifully and deliberately decor
ated so that it will present a
fairy land scene which will
live in memory for years.

anceship and meet school mates
with whom you have COM
mon bond in your allegiance
to S. G. H. S. Your presence
