Gayle Eckert and Leann Wade. Two small crownbearers, Randy Frank and Eleanor Falk, com pleted the royal party. At the conclusion of the coronation Rev. erly and Duane left the stage to lead all dancers through the pat terms of the Grand March.
 Juniors, working almost the entire week on decorations for the prom, transformed the gym nasium into an outdoor flower garden. Rows of tiny evergreen trees outlined the dancing floor. Dancers led their partners out on the floor through four ever green arches through which hun dreds of colorful flowers had been twined. Closely twi n e d streamers of blue festooned the ceiling, while evergreen trimmed draperies hung from every avail able Wallspace.
 The student diningroom of the school, scene of the senior ban quet which preceded the prom, also was garlanded with ever greens and gayly colored flow CTS.
 The formal gowns of the danc- CTS, of every imaginable color, completed the illusion of gay floweYgarden

 The petition points out that it appears quite possible that Palmer vii become an incor- porated town before the next legislature convenes, thereby ob- viating the necessity for the con- tinued appointment of a territor- ial law enforcement officer here.
 The petition, drawn up under date of May 2, had been signed by 16 local merchants at press time. Other businessmen who wish to add their names to the petition will find copy at the office of the Palmer Cold Stor- age.

 Victor Rivers, Anchorage ar chitect and engineer who was guest speaker at Fridays ban quet, said he believed that for every dollar raised in Palmer, you will probably be able to raise an equal or even double amount in other parts of the territory" He pointed out that the $15,OO0 sum also gives Pal mer a substantial backlog to point to, when requesting both Federal and territorial aid to help finance hospital construc- tion.
 Federal fund s must be matched, two for one, but ter ritorial funds, when available, are an outright gift.
 MT. Rivers spoke encourag- ingly of the Valleys future, say ing that he felt the construction of new hospital in Palmer and the development of the Palmer

The Honemaker's
Corner
By MARY DOUGLAS

With the sun bearing down here
at home, l sure would like to re-
turn this morning to the spot where,
with my sister, spent two weeks
vacation - Piney Mountain Inn in
the nearby Pennsylvania noun
tains. There it was so cool that it
was always necessary to have a
jacket or sweater handy, SO it's
needless to say that this 95-degree
and up temperature seems like a
furnace.
Around these vacation spots one
always meets many lovely people.
Three that l met while at the Inn
were from Baltimore. The Misses
Ressmyer (sisters) and Miss Daisy
Wilkens, music teacher. Miss Will
kens was just recovering from an
illness and found it hard to get a
good nights sleep when she first
arrived, and sometimes, in the mid
die of the night, she would pass the
hours doing something to occupy her
mind. One night she wrote a little
jingle about the Inn, which was
quite good and am passing it along
to you.
Piney Mountain Inn
Proudly the Inn lifts its lofty head
Among the forest trees,
1t looks so cool and lovely there,
Through the woods there rustles a
breeze.
The tired city folks here repair
When they have time and money to
spare,
They laugh and frolic, play games
galore,
While down the road the old
trucks roar
The beds are soft, the food is fine
And nothing's left to worry the mind
So when the return trip looms
ahead
A good time was had when every
things said.
