On S aturday evening the m onthly
social was held in the school house.
There was a very good audience, in
fact the room was well filled and ev­
erybody seemed to be enjoying them ­
selves immensely. An item which
caused much m errim ent was a sor.g
of local hits by Fred H orner, whic’i
hit about everybody in the district,
and everyone enjoyed the joke on
the other fellow. T here w ere many
other enjoyable item s on the pro­
gram , but the central one was the
play, “ An Economical Boom erang.”
It was well given and pleased the
audience too.
A fter the program
came the usual free lunch and a fine
lunch, too. Seems like the people
enjoy this item best of all, not l e
cause of the refreshm ents only, but
because of the social tim * togetbe

subjects and th e jokes are always
present.
