    Let’s Be Sociable
Social Events Many
At School End
Social events have been many
at 'Vernonia high school during
the last two weeks of classes.
Most obvious event was the
seniors' skip day, which they ob­
served Friday by disappearing at
10:30 to Big Eddy park. Before
dinner time the class of '43 had
a treasure hunt in the hills be­
hind the park. Until the seniors
left at 3:30, the afternoon was
spent in playing softball, both
the boys’ and the girls’ teams
claiming victory.
That evening the Girls’ Athletic
association sponsored a social ev­
ening at the high school gym,
where they entertained the bas­
ketball boys with dancing and
games. Refreshments were served
in the home economics room.
During the activity period on
Wednesday of last week
the
drama club enjoyed quantities of
ice cream and cake, while on
Monday the Timberline paper
staff celebrated its last meeting
with ice cream, cake and pop.
Tuesday night the junior and
sophomore classes had picnics.

and “Mother McCrea,” by Mrs.
Herman Dickson and Mrs. Oscar

Rationing makes pointing very necessary; that
is, deciding how you can best spend your points.
We’ll be glad to help you “point” to the best ad­
vantage. Buying unrationed foods such as fresh
fruits and vegetables and cereals will help to
stretch those points.
