Rousing Success
The community Christmas tree
and entertainment given in the
high school auditoriam Monday
. evening was a great success in
every way. About 200 peeple
were present. Decorations were
artistic and the program was
well rendered. Treats were
generously provided everyone,
and local residents who were not
priviledged to be present were
remembered by Santa'3 faithful
representatives the next morn
ing who made the trips around
to homes.
This is the first attempt for
anything of the kind Maupin as
a community has undertaken for
several years and those who
have so unselfisiy put forth so
much effort are to be congratu
lated on their -thorough success.
