M prom is the very
IA best? The loyalty
goes with each class
and so much is done to make
the evening outstanding and
the very most enjoyable OF all.
This one of last Friday eve
ming was just one of those nice
affairs that will go on record
as being all that those who
were responsible wanted it to
be. Not only the prom at school
but the part afterward, held at
the VF'W Home near town. The
Junior mothers did themselves
proud, too. They had arranged
a veritable beach party for the
juniors and their partners.
about two hundred and fifty in
number. 1t was a most enjoy
able time from one-thirty a.
m. on. Lighted tables were
there for the couples to sit
while they enjoyed hamburg
ers, cooked on the nearby roar
ing fire. And the other things
that go with an outdoor party
were on hand to complete the
repast for the hungry guests.
Nothing seemed to be forgotten
by the parents, for there was a
movie, music and dancing that
continued for a few hours. Re-
warding was the fact that most
OF the couples stayed right
there for all of the time and
their courtesy to those who
were responsible for the party
was marked and most certainly
appreciated. 1t made a good
finale to a gay evening and the
vFW Home. right on the lovely
Haven Lake, seemed the right
setting for 1t.
