On Friday afternoon, Decem-
ber 20, the Homemakers’ club
sponsored a community tea jn
the new Homemaking depart-
ment. The room was beautifully
decorated In the Christmas
motif. There was a small, lovely
Christmas tree and soft-glowing
candles on the table. Radio
music added further harmony to
the Christmas theme. .
Soon after the noon hour the
guests began arriving and were
shown the homemaking depart-
ment by the hostesses.

Its gralttude and thanks foC.the

3. The third Item to be consid-
ered Is the donation method. X
never did believe strongly In
asking for free gifts for the fi-
nancing of such an enterprise.
In this particular Instance, how-
ever, there is a different angle.
The fact that fifteen hundred
school children from the county
were preparing for a trip to Dal-
las would mean quite an In-
crease In the buying power of
these fifteen hundred individ-
uals. The dry goods merchant,
the grocerman, the garageman,
the barber and. in fact, practi-
cally every type of business firm
would share in the extra spend-
ing of these individuals. An-
other item to consider Is the
tact that a big majority of the
total expenditure for such a trip
would be spent at home in pre-
paration for this trip.
Thus, it would not be amiss to
give every business firm in every
community in the county an op-
portunity to contribute a bit to
the financing of the Centennial
trip.
I repeat again, that I believe it
altogether possible, from a fi-
nancial point of view, for every
public school student in Mills
county to go to the Centennial.
MR. AND MRS. E. A. DUREN
HOST AND HOSTESS
Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Duren were
at home to about fifty friends
Sunday. Honor guest was Dr.
Jewel Daugherty of Brownwood.
The feast was more than the
fatted calf. It also consisted of
the king of birds. The dinner
was typical of Mrs. Duron's and
Miss Duren’s culinary arts.

warm hospitality radiated to all
