0 w rO0 f I3.T.Cll Cmrarwuvmn Another memorable evening was provided by the Parent- Teacher's Association which held its annual carnival on the evening of November 9, 1945. Nearly an hour before the time set for serving the din- ner, people began lining up for the delicious baked ham which had everyone's mouth watering. Of course, this penny supper included all the trimmings. For those who starved themselves all day in anticipation of this event. Dessert in the form of pop and ice cream was sold all during the evening. f As can be seen in one of the pictures on the next page, the ticket seller had a busy night. These tickets were good at any of the concessions stands. A good many people tried their skill at the throwball and a few won gorgeous dolls they could call their own. For the less adventuresome were cake and candy sales, fish pond. There was ieven a live chicken sale! The Minstrel players of the school provided a laugh-a- minute interspersed with excellent singing and dancing. Mr. Keller directed the minstrel which was presented by the Pub- lic Speaking Class and the Girls' Glee Club. Dick Kbenigsek- er was interlocutor and was rather surprised when he found that one of his cast had rolled right off the stage into the audience. The queen of the carnival was Martha Black. She was chosen by the public who cast their votes all during the affair. A short while after the minstrel show the dancing began to the music of Burton Bender and his orchestra. With squares and rounds being called the group was plenty glad to rest a while and applaud when the queen received her award at ten o'clock. Aside from the amusements offered most of Whitehouse and vicinity enjoyed the gpod fun of just associating with their friends and all were in a carnival mood. 0130 go ofluoo Q00 1

1 FREEDOM Freedom is a word, an image-- A pearl-shell enclosing emptiness Near the shore where wild waves rage Only this, and nothing less? It is something for which men wage Their souls with deathless courage It is an idol all men worship, bles This strange word dreamed by a sage: so It is a phantom, it stands afar, Personifying strength and right-- It flickers as a fallen star In the blackness of the night, Lighting for a moment the dark sky, Then silently falling through space E. E. Keller THE PACIFIC These waves that wash the dead ashore From your Wounded, bleeding bosom Dnce clear as a sapphire in the night Hold those secrets. Protect, save O God, those we love -- those men Who brave your stormy waters. Roll on, 0 bleeding ocean -- Have courage to hold, protect, Bring back safely to the shore The valiant, the brave, the bold, - To pray that the sun may shine again, That the moon and the stars shine aga That the moon and the stars reflect Forever, on your wounded breast The symbol of everlasting peace.
