Apqor Ball Come
hy Apqar School

by AP0aT oCnooI
We're pretty happy that w
have had our picnic and that w
had a wonderful day for it.
The mothers had just been wait
ing for the right weather report
The report Thursday noon sale
Friday would be clear. Everyone
sprang to action. Five gallons o.
ice cream to order, cakes, salads
hot dishes to make.
We intended to have our picnic
at Sprague but the camp grounds
looked pretty full so we went to
Fish creek. There were 70 to 80
of us.
Such a grand time, wonderful
food, and perfect day. The high
light as usual was the ball game
between the school children and
the mothers. The school children
won. Some mothers who had prac-
ticed not wisely but too well in
preparation for the game and were
unable to play in the real game
formed a cheering section. mike"
Vincent very ably umpired the
game.
The day ended with a candy
bar hunt and the children just
barely beat the gophers to them.
The gophers had dragged off a
candy bar and nibbled both ends
of another.
Mr.. Salansky brought the APP
gar school a dozen tulips from
Spokane. We enjoyed them very
much.
Wednesday Mrs. Price and Mrs.
Kee had a surprise birthday par
ty for Mrs. Fitzmaurice. There
were 10 grown-ups and four chill
dren.
MRS WILEs LEAVES
Mrs. Nellie Wiles left Sunday
morning by bus for Great Falls
for an indefinite visit with her
son Tom and family. She was to
arrive for late Mothers day din
ner. We think Mrs. Nellie Wiles,
almost 80, pretty remarkable. She
splits and piles her winter wood
supply, makes her own very at
tractive dresses, and even suits,
and does a great deal of fancy
work, a lot OF reading and is al
ways busy. Eighty years young!
