first Friday in each month, Janu

What with dances, carnivals
banquets, movies and open house
teas, it would seem that O’Brien
School has become the center of
community activity. We under
stand the Friday night Square

almost more people than space
and everyone sad when the last
waltz shooed them home. Members
