THE RED CROSS NURSE
MISS MARY GRASKAMF
PRESENTS A PKOCRAM
As a climax to the twelve weeks of
activities conducted by the National
Red Cross Nurse, Miss Mary Gras
liamp, both in the Public School and
St. Mary's Academy, the pupils of her
classes in both .-chool ’ and the adult
I class presented an Achievement pro
gram in the auditbrium of the public
school building Thursday evening to
a crowded house.
The high school orchestra played
several selections at the opening of
i the program and ut intervals through
out the evening. ,
Mrs. P. J. O’Donnell, chairman of
the local chapter of the Red Cross
gave a very interesting resume of the
O’Neill Red Cross; he spoke very
highly of the work done by Miss Gras
kamp during the twe lvc week3 that
she spent in O'N* ill.
The first demonstration on the pro
gram was a playlet given by members
of the Hygiene cla of the public
school, entitled ' A Picnic. The de
monstration consisted of first aid work
in a series of accident that are liable
to happen at any picnic and covered
a range of a scratch an the finger to
drowning. Those who took part in the
program were Lona Cromwell, Leta
Johnson, Stella VanEvery, Eva Spang
ler, Helen Gain., Virgil Johnson,
Harold Shoemaker, Francis Tenborg,
Robert Lamb, George Robertson and
Levi Hull. ,
The next demonstration was given
by pupils of the -ame class, entitled
“The Baby's Bath." The part of the
mother was taken by Mildred Gran
dorff, the nurse, Marjorie Gretsch;
visitors, Neva Oberle and Amolia Mer
rill. The visitors represented the
“nosey” type of women who sometimes
visit the new baby and are chock full
of the old time theories; these two
visitors were exceptionally clever.
The members of St. Mnry's Home
' Hygiene class contributed u playlet
and two readings to the program. The
playlet “An Auto Accident” dealt with
the proper emergency treatment for a
dislocated shoulder and other injuries.
Those taking part were: Mildred
Agnes. Gertrude Connelly, Margaret
and Eleanor Dunne, Bernadette Gal
ligan, June Scanlon, Lenore Shoe
maker, Genevieve Lydon, Josephine
Wabs and Nellie Whiting.
“Maggie McCarthy on Dieting,” was
read by Loretta Carr, and “The Boy
and His Father,” by Catherine Zas
trowe.
Besides first aid kits exhibited by
the high school classes there was a
very fine “health” sand table showing
a town, the houses, streets and side
walks, all of which were constructed
of some kind1 of cereal.
The last number on the program
was presented by the adult class show
ing the use of homemade appliances
in the care of a patient. The ladies
were Mrs. Frank Oberle, patient; Mrs.
W. C. Templeton, nurse; Mrs. John
Stauffer, assistant nurse; Mrs. James
McPharlin and Mrs. Katherine Miller,
visitors. The visitors caused many
good laughs by their inquisitiveness
and by their conversation embodying
the untimely remarks that are often
heard in the sick room; the remarks
were considerably overdrawn but were
greatly enjoyed' by the audience .
A SURPRISE PARTY.
How refreshing it is after reading
continually the cold calculating items
of news about business, politics and
ordinary society affairs such as we
see, for the most part, in the papers,
to read of a surprise party such as
was given to R. J. Hatch, Monday
night. April 15th, in honor of his
sixtieth birthday anniversary and it
was a real surprise.
They assembled at the home of Roy
Cole about eight o’clock in the evening
and greeted Mr. Hatch with wishes
for many happy returns; some nice
presents were presented to him.
After that he, with most of the
young people, engaged in some out
door games until eleven o’clock, when
a lunch of many different kinds of nice
cakes and coffee was served.
On the table was one cake decorated
with sixty candles lighted and burn
ing and Mr. Hutch, a scustom usualy
is observed, blew out the candles, then
the crowd proceeded to partake of the
rereshments. Afterwards indoor
games were played until nearly one
o’clock, after which the party broke
up with the statement that they all
enjoyed themselves very much.

CELIA NEWS.
A fiine rain fell throughout the
country, Saturday night and Sunday.
As the weather is getting better
people are starting out to get ac
quainted again after hybe- .ilie so
to speak, through the long bard win
ter.
The dirtfarmers are all qi.r’te busy
sowing small grain, oats and bn~Vv.
Also spring rye; congress wdl likely
have a tremendous job this fall caring
for the surplus, which there certainly
will be if every kernel biings a hun
dred fold. The chickens are nothing
but chinmusic yet, awai ng warmer
weather.
The O. A. Hammerburg family
helped dismantle a twenty-pound tur
key, and Mr. and Mrs. Henry Smith
and George were dinner guests at
Willard Greenwoods. The Johnson’s
expected some dinner guests from
O Neill, too. The Harry Bowen family
but supposedly, on account of the rain,
did not arrive, and thus lost out on the
turkey.
The northwest schoolma’am. Miss
Alpha, says if it isn’t one thing its
two, and thinks the “chevy” which she
drives back and forth to school, tried
to commit suicide Monday; it’s been
in good working order in all gears and
always started when stepped on, but
Monday evening it started fire instead
of speed and tried to burn itself up.
Fay Cams, with the help of the other
children, got the fire put out before
any serious damage was done. Frank
Kohlschmidt' with his tin lizzie hap
pened along and brought the bunch
home. The “chevy” was pulled home
later in the evening.
GRETA GARBO GLORIOUSLY
ALLURING IN DANCES
OF HER NEW FILM
Greta Garbo, who during her entire
residence in Hollywood has never par
ticipated in the social whirl of the
screen capital, preferring the seclu
sion of her Santa Monica apartment,
had to learn the newest ballroom steps
for her latest screen vehicle.
“Wild Orchids" shown at Royal
Theatre, O’Neill, Sunday and Monday.
Sedate Scandinavian waltz rhythms
and the syncopated fast-moving
dance numbers popular in the United
States are as far apart, obviously, as
a tropical breeze and a Canadian
snowstorm. Miss Garbo’s early train
ing in the principles of the dance at
the Royal Dramatic Academy in Stock
holm proved of little value when it
came to going through a half-dozen
Hurried fox trots and semi-Charles
tons. Dance instructors were hurridly
summoned from a Los Angeles school
and the young Swedish actress quickly
re-learned the basic points of 1928
ballroom dancing, Western Hemis
phere style.
The scenes in “Wild Orchids” call
ing for ballroom dancing take place

Enjoy the Spring Roads
Comfortably/
SpRING, the motoring reason, is here. Everyone
wants to be out taking advantage of the weather.
Week-end trips, after-dinner drives, long rides on
Sundays-everything is justigreat-excepf the roads.
Many roads are still bad—wet, muddy and cut
up by the frost.
To enjoy the pleasant weather, there is one ab
solute necessity—good, dependable tires.
That’s why we suggest that you look over
your tires now and replace the doubtful ones with
United States Tires. They will carry you smoothly
and safely over the worst of roads. They will allow
you to enjoy every minute of the spring season.
Come in and let us show you how we can help
you with Royal and USCO Cords.
