cured and the fact that the affair is
given under the auspices of the Cir
cle guarantees its success. It is not
the intention of the members to de
vote any time to an advance ticket
sale, their time being taken up with
other matters, but the attendance of
the general public is solicited and
all who go will have a most delight
ful time tripping the light fantas
tic on the smooth Itoor in this pop
ular dance hall.

crenlit to the teacher and pupils. Miss
Barker also gave anyone who had
not signed before a chance to sign
the food cards and so do their bit
to help the Government in the con
servation of food. Miss Barker is
just the kind of a teacher needed to
help the boys and girls grow up into
