He must have tried a dozen
ways to scare them off. But no

Then Easy thought of an old
stuffed owl he had in his attic. He
propped it on the roof so’s all

They Do
'Give A Hoot" For Easy
From where I sit, quite often
a “bright idea” will turn out to be
“not so bright” after all. That’s
why we should never be too cock-
sure of our ideas and opinions—
but always try to keep an open
mind. I believe a refreshing glass
of beer is the best thirst-quencher
— you may believe differently.
But who’s to say one’s right and
the other is wrong? Let’s just
practice tolerance. It’ll save a lot
of hootin’ and hollerin’.

GAMMA PI MEETS IN DILLEY
The Gamma Pi Chapter of the
Delta Kappa Chapter Society, honor-
ary society for women teachers, met
in the home of Mrs. Minnie Saekville
in Dilley, Monday evening, Feb. 18,
with seventeen members present.
Members were reminded of the
present festive month by pictures of
Lincoln and pictures of both George
and Martha Washington on display,
by a plastic valentine centerpiece
supplimented by boquets of red roses
and verbinas, and by plastic valen-
! tine favors. Refreshments of cher-
ry pie and hot tea continued the re-
iininder. —
Before they had their regular pro-
gram, interesting facts and legends
were told about St. Valentine’s Day
by the Dilley members; about George
j \\ ashington by the Cotulla members,
| and about Abraham Lincoln by the
I Pearsall members.
i Mis. John Wildenthal then gave a
| very interesting talk on the educa-
i tion system, customs and living con-
| ditions of the natives of British Hon-
I duras, of Central America. She also
i showed costumes and exquisite handi-
j work of the natives of that province.
| After Mrs. Wildenthal’s colorful
program Gamma Pi had a brief busi-
ness meeting, with Mrs. Waneta
| Weatherford, their president, presid-
