That there is much artistic talent in the school was evidenced by the exclama tions of many onlookers. The pupils, who were staunch and full-time (except for school) veterans of the exhibit, were charging one dollar each for their works in order to raise funds to purchase one of the originals for their school. The pupils contributing were Sally Gifford, John Hemmer, Graham Johnston, Joan John ston and Evelyn Maddox. Of much interest to the vis itors was the % picture presented to Lily Pons from Walt Dis ney at the opening of the ex hibit in Florida. BETTY JAMESON LOSES TO MRS. FREDA NOLAN ST.

I don’t pretend to have all the answers to all the questions, but I have my own answers to a few that nobody has answered yet. It may be because I am a salesman of laundry supplies but there are many things in this country I’d like to see thoroughly cleansed, and I’d like to have a hand in the cleansing.
