Teen-Tattler —
‘Get Ready for This’ and ‘Practice for That’
But in 3 Short Weeks It’ll All Be Over
Hi kids!
That busiest time of the
school year is here now and in
full swing. It’s “get ready for
> this” and
“practice for
that,” until
we are wound
up and going
in circles. But
i n 3 short
weeks it’ll be
over, and the
seniors will be
saying good
bye to their
high school
days.
Barbara Sunday, Ap
Bennett ril 23, the FF
A and FHA of
O’Neill high school had a pic
nic. They went to Long Pine’s
Hidden Paradise. It was a beau
tiful day and most of the kids
came home with sunburns. Next
day some of the girls were
proudly showing off their beau
tiful cherry red “sun tans” (not
burns, tans—they would claim.)
Friday a track meet at Bas
sett was called off because of
snow. Yes, snow! I said in my
last column I'd better not say
anything about nice weather
or we'd have another snow
storm. We did.
Class night practice is under
way at St. Mary’s academy. It’s
going to be in the form of a
court with each senior being
brought up to trial.
Tuesday night, April 25, the
Lions club gave a banquet for
all the kids who had played or
sang for them during the year.
There were about 35 altogether.
Pens were presented to Mr.
PC

George and Miss Vondracek in
appreciation.
At OHS the grade school pre
sented a very fine operetta,
“Polly Makebelieve.” Carol
Fredrickson portrayed “Polly”
and the grades up to the sixth
made up the supporting cast.
The 7th and 8th grades sang
3 songs, one of them, “Dry
Bones,” was exceptionally good.
That’s all for this time. See
you.

stocker-feeder club met Thurs
day night, April 27, at the Del
bert Edwards home. All mem
bers answered roll call by nam
ing a wild flower.
After the business meeting,,
we received 4-H material and j
discussed choosing our calves'
soon.
We sang songs and played
games. Lunch was served by
Mrs. Delbert Edwards and Mrs.
