THESE WESTERNERS took time out, in their colorful
pageantry at the Garden Home grade school, April 29, to
present a "Pioneer Born Donee" as the third and fourth
grace's contribution to the annual Spring plays, theme of
"Song and Dance "
Although the entertainment was wholly carried by the
youngsters, they were carefully trained and directed by the
school faculty Wayne S Thurman is principal at Garden
