PAGE FOUR GOLDSBORO HI N EWS April 18, 1941 Seniors Will Sponsor Barn Dance April 25 “Swing your partners” to the Senior’s Barn Dance at the William Street gym on April 25, given to make money for the senior gift. As boys enter in overalls and straw hats and girls in milk-maid costumes, they will be confronted by an ideal barn dance scene. All over the floor straw will be scattered; at one end a barn loft piled high with hay and scattered here and there, harnesses, horse collars, and wagon wheels to com plete the barn-hke atmosphere. As entertainment, naturally there will be hill-billy musicians, an ex pert figure-caller for you to “hi-ho and away we go” into the square dance. Cake walks, a country store, and other special numbers will pro vide added entertainment for all fun-loving folks. For the “pause that refreshes,” hot dogs with trimmings, cold drinks and candy will be ready for dry throats when the time comes. Committees working on the barn dance are: Decorations, Virginia Weatherly, chairman; Billy Charl ton, Lillian Jenkins, Vernon South erland, Mary Hicks, Gray Whitford, and Dwight Pate. Refreshments: Dot Grant, chair man; Tommy Bland, Dorothy Smith, Annie Mae Christenbury, Louise Holloman, Bobby Harrington, Flor ence Horne, and Ray Carr.

JUNIORS’ CHILDHOOD CAPERS While still a little tot, Herbert Barbour, in an attempt to aid his mother get to town, serviced her car with water and sand. Way back in 1937, Charlie T. hung by his hands out of a second story William Street schoolroom for 30 seconds. Ruth Weil once summoned five policemen to investigate a squeak ing door. Dees Pollock caught the Florida Special to come from Wilson to Goldsboro on a cold Christmas Eve night. Luckily he got off in time and had to walk only four miles to town in the dark. Mary Emma Rouse played with fire one time too many and burned her grandmother’s house up. Charles O’Steen once had to sit in the principal’s office all day for walking the ledge on the Walnut Street School. In primary school Margaret Jean Thornton beat up Dickey W.

PLACE YOUR ORDER For Your Mother’s Day Candy At The OPERA SHOPPE Ruth Minton’s mother tied her to a tree one time for dropping her sunbonnet in the Big Ditch and then going after it. Lorraine Baddour once crawled under the house through a hole in the brick foundation and was closed in by the mason. Lizzie Mae Adams before reaching the age of six cut off her curls to keep in style. Edwin Pittman, while still very small, tried to swipe a puppy, but the big dog turned the tables and swiped a piece of Edwin’s pants. Ray Alston found a new use for staples when he didn’t have a safety pin. He “stapled” his pajama coat from chin to hem. Elaine Brown, although she still was very small, decided “it was time to go home” when some of her friends cut her long curls. Linwood Harrell, in his mischev- ious days (?), insisted upon rubbing phosphofooSM between his hands, and as a result nursed bandaged hands for several weeks. Nancy Paige Swift found, after comparing herself with a turkey, that she and the turkey had the same features.

Jack Gue once ran away to look for his mother, who was in the hospital. Instead of the hospital, he found a school, walked in, and look ed it over. Dot Perkins used to love to play with matches. She set the curtains on fire and damaged a bedroom considerably. She was so scared that her mother didn’t even spank her. Virginia Hopewell tried to gyp her grandfather out of a couple of drink bottles by taking them off his back porch and carrying them to his store and trying to get fiis money for them. But, oh, no, she didn’t. Some people’ll bet on these Juniors’ Capers as taking the cake, but the Rimplegars of “Three- Cornered Moon” fame are running neck to neck in the race. A. M.
