Beginning November 20 we will grind

Television on the Farm
Back Childs’ home has become
mighty popular ever since he got
that television set—one of the few
sets in our town, outside of Andy’s
Garden Tavern.
Not only do the kids stay home
nights, but the neighbors drop in
to see whatever’s being telecast.
And Buck and the missus always
make them welcome, with a mellow
glass of beer or-ale (with cider and
cookies for the youngsters).
While I guess everyone a4pdts
that television still has far to go,
it’s not hard to see that it will some
day be as much a part of American
home and farm life as the temper-
ate glass of beer that Buck serves,
and the hospitality that goes with it.
And from where I sit, anything
that adds to gracious living in
America—brings folks together for
temperate, quiet entertainment—
is a boon to this home-loving land
of ours. (We’re thinking of buying
a television set ourselves!^
The Lavaca County Home
Demonstration Council met on
Nov. 16 at 2 p. m. in the La-
vaca County Court House.
There were eight members,
three guests and the agent
present, with five clubs repre-
sented.
The meeting opened with the
club pledge and the recreation
period followed. Mrs. Hoerig
won first prize and Mrs. Noah
second prize.
The minutes and treasury re-
port were read by the secre-
tary.
Orders for ironing boards
were taken at the meeting.
Plans were made for the
County Wide Christmas Party.
The members voted to have the
party at night with their fam-
ilies on December ninth at the
Sacred Heart Parish Hall in
Hallettsville. It was decided to
have a Christmas tree with ex-
change of gifts, and refresh-
ments of cake, sandwiches,
cookies, coffee and soda water.
The club voted to pay ten
dollars plus the 4-H Club
money to Mary Koenig for her
trip to the State Fair.
The meeting adjourned with
the club prayer.

SHINER HIGH
SCHOOL NEWS
Junior Class News ,
Last Tuesday the Shiner
High School had a basketball
game with St. Joseph High from
Yoakum. Sorry to say, we lost
35 to 38, but it was a very good
game and the next time we play
them we hope to win* You
junior boys will have to make
your knees stop shaking.
The volleyball girls of Shi-
ner High School played a very
exciting game against the Con-
vent last Wednesday, and won
two out of three games. Good
work, girls.
We have had a busy two
weeks. Last Friday the sixth
grade had an assembly that was
really cute.
Senior Class News
The Seniors very proudly se-
lected their graduation invita-
tions last week. Now that we
have ordered our invitations, it
seems as if graduation day is
just around, the comer.
Everyone certainly enjoyed
the basketball game; Shiner vs
St. Joseph of Yoakum. Although
we lost, we are real proud of
our players, considering that it
was some of the boys first
game. The basketball season has
a good start with plenty of
school spirit and boosting. The
