Prom, given Friday
evening by the jun
ior Glass for the
graduates, is happi-
~ over. and without any dis
turbing aftermath. There will
be those who thought Fate was
a little unkind to them, because
Of the lessened activities, but
time does so much to change
ones thinking and in the years
ahead they will respect the
wise counsel Of the older folk.
From the accounts Of the eve
ning's affairs, it would seem
that there could not have been
a better time for the upper
classes. Miss Martha Wilson
had about a hundred at her
home for an intermission party.
That included the members of
the Junior Glass and their es-
corts and girls. And Miss June
Reed entertained the same
group at her home for break
fast Saturday morning from
two to four, when chicken and
Waffles were served. Mrs. Reed
was assisted by Mrs. Melvin
James and Mrs. John B. Baker.
It all sounds like such fun. one
wishes those young days could
be repeated.
