BOYS GIVE PARTY TO
GIRLS AND TEACHERS
A Christmas party was given to the
girls of the low eighth grade and the
teachers of San Jacinto school Friday
afternoon by the boys of the low
eighth grade. The party was given in

lovable "Carol." Her enunciation was son Mrs. A. Johnston Mrs. Willis;

teacher of the school and the only
"grown up" in the play was a revela-
tion in the part of "Mrs. Ruggles."
Her make up was capital and she en-
tered into the spirit of the part in
such a whole hearted way as to capti-
vate her audience with her excellent
character acting.
The scenes in the Ruccleses home
I were wonderfully human with the ir
repressible nine liuggieses swarming
about. Mrs. Ruggles's attempt to
"scrub up the bunch" and "fetch them
up In manners" were a big hit. All
of the children acted splendidly and
seemed to be enjoying the perform-
ance as much as the audience. Dor-
othy Williams as "Uncle Jack" and
Birdie Krupp as "Mr. Bird" made two
awfully good looking young men when-
made up and their handling of their
characters was very well done.
"Con" acted by Minda Laskin was
a typical little street gamin and the
other "Ruggleses kids" were equally
good character bits. Between the
scenes and as a background to some
of the action the church choir "next
doer." sane these old' Christmas carols:
"We Three Kings of Orient Are." "It 1
Came Upon the Midnight Clear" and

Miss Anna Shelton. Mrs. Hubbard read

"Quashing" Court Suits
Doesn't Mean Hurling
Them Out the Window
Student Get First Glimpse of Court
i-roceuure in Round of Busi-
nesses and Professions.
He was a high school student. So
was she. They were being initiated
into the intricacies of the law. Their
first lesson was received in the 34th
district court room. The two with
other high school students occupied
one of the front benches in the oourt
room. The trip to the court was a
part of the plan of showing; the stu-
dents who are on the verge of select-
ing a vocation in life. Just how things
are done in various vocations and busi-
nesses. Flour mills railroads and
newspapers are included in the itiner-
ary. The idea is that some one busi-
ness or profession may enlist the in-
terest of some who are undecided and
definitely fix their choice on a life
vocation.
Before entering the court room they
were taken to the district clerk's of-
fice. They were shown the file docket;
saw district clerk J. A. Escajeda issue
the citations for a suit Just filed. They
followed deputy district clerk N. Phil-
lips to the sheriffs office where the
citations were delivered to chief dep-
uty sheriff Stanley Good. They saw
Good hand the citation to a deputy to
serve. The parties defendant presum-
ably were In court.
But this was a criminal case that
was being tried on the day the stu-
dents visited the court room. The de-
fendant was oeing tried on a charge
of receiving and concealing stolen prop-
erty. Tom Lea was representing the
defendant and making an effort to
quash the indictment. District attor-
ney W. W. BrWgers was arguing
against the granting of the motion.
"He" and 'he" caught the word
"quash."
"What does that mean?" she asked
the boy.
"That means." he reDlied with a su
perior air 'that the case would be
thrown out of conrt." He admitted
that he had read something about eom-
mereial law.
"Wouldn't that be cute." she said
"Let's watch them throw it out."
"Aw. they don't throw anything out"
he said with a trace of something like
disgust In his voice. "It means that
that would be the end of the case. That
is Just a technical expression."
JOh I see. How simple. But I would
not waste so much time if I were a
lawyer on that 'quash' business."
The court refused to quash the in-
dictment and the defendant went tc
trial. Time was consumed in the ar-
guments on the admissibility of certain
evidence.
"This is rather a bore" she said
"Let's go and see how they make
flour."
