No 10 o’clock Scholars At Dunn School Dunn, April 14.—Maybe some hids don’t like to go to school but that’s’ not the case at the Dnnn grammar school. The boys and girls like it so well that they’ve been going an hour too early every morning and staying late in the afternoon. Officials almost have to beg them to stay home, the situation has gotten so bsd. E. G. Bourne, superintendent of city schools, today made an ap peal to the parents through the newspapers not to allow their ohildren to go to school before 8 o’clock. “The teachers are not on duty before that time and it is impos- alble to look after them proper ly,” the official explianed. Mr. Bourne declared some have been going a.s early as 6:30 in the morning. But, sure, there’s a reason: New playground equip ment has just been installed on the school grounds.

All Records Broken For Egg Rolling Washington, April 14. — All records for egg rolling—that pe culiar Washington Easter Monday ^ree—were as shattered tonight as the bits of gaily colored egg shells that 4 6 gardeners raked up from the trampled White House lawns. Between 9 a. m. and .7 p. m.. ■>3.2.58 children and adults janim- 'd their way into the White House grotinds to roll eggs down iiinny slopes, eat picnic lunches, listen to bands and hear a word of greeting from President Roose velt. The old record, set in 1939 was 53.1(10. The rule is that adults may en 'cr only if accompanying a chtul, but each child seemed to have two or three adults in tow. W'hen President Rodsevelt came out on the south portico to say “Hello,” he observed: “I’m not sure the grown-up.s don't enjoy it as much as the youngsters.” Altogether, the day was a huge One Cent 8i»Te, »• ibnOUnaing taring sales event et mrame Th-QK etmpanr, will open; t^arsdny morttinA and continue [tU^^ SatnMay, A^l ^19. ■ This sales event "afforts the public opportunltj' to buy OTmer- ouB articles In the Peiial*r_^lln® drugs and drug sundries'at re markable savings.

Gene was always an extra good boy at school, and no matter what task he was given to do, he al ways did it with a smile. 1 can say for all the school that we ■miss Gene and his smiles. But I feel sure that our loss Is heav en’s gain. Once there was a man working away from home. On his way home he was killed in an auto mobile wreck. The undertakers found this note In his vest pocket. “Please hurry home daddy.” I believe if Gene could write us, or his parents a little note it would be something like this. “Hurry and come on up to Heav en to stay with me.” Written by his teacher—Carl Church.
