Upon returning to the High School we had our gift exchange. The Chapter presented Mrs. Nuppenau, advisor, with a poinsetta plant. Mrs. Swanson, Chapter Mother, and Mrs. Nuppenau served refreshments. The party was then adjourned. We all had a wonderful time. I'm sure all of us had the meaning of Christmas brought closer to us through this fellowship.
