The usual entertainment will be cut somewhat and time given to that is a good question. What are we waiting for? This business of education is everybody's every-body's business.

Alumni committee members, Tillman Till-man Johnson, Wanda Beckwith, Ward Killpack, Ruth Steele, Choral Clark and Rex Harris, are working overtime to assure that a large crowd of alumni and partners will be present at the annual affair. Delta High School needs support from you former students ALL OF YOU. There is not a graduate who could not g've more support to DHS through the Alumni Ass'n than he is now doing. And there is a place for partners I'm finding out. I'm not a graduate of DHS, but I intend in-tend to have four graduates from DHS ) beginning next year) and I am very interested in the school. Principal Bennett's philosophy of a high school, and oil of the teaching teach-ing staff that I have talked with at any time on the subject. In the December issue of "Wo man's Day" is an article by Dr. Charles A. Bucher, Professor of Education, Ed-ucation, New York University. The article "What Makes A Good High School? , is highly provocative, Dr. Bucher begins the article with "A great many Americans to- ky and J. Ward Moody. as I have can't help but know that new things can be made of old. For years all the dresses that Lyn-ette Lyn-ette had were ones that I had made out of old garments. I still do the same thing. The house that we live in is part old and part new. Red and LoRayne Van did a very good job of remod eling and adding on.. Yet, our house is as modern as any in town I daresay and in as good condition. YouTl find Mr. Ashworth's rec ommendations on the front page, so I hope that you will read them carefully. I further hope that they can be fulfilled. That decision will have to wait. But, every time I pass DHS and DJHS, I can just see those plans a reality. At the risk of repeating re-peating myself, I LIKED THEM. With Christmas getting nearer every day, one would think that I would be as busy as everyone else is preparing for the big day. The truth is I have been rather busy getting ready for Christmas, but this school business is my all consuming con-suming "passion" these days. So puddings, fruitcakes, candies, cards and everything else are taking a back seat! When one of my little Lyric Lore Club Is Entertained The Lyric Lore Thanksgiving Par-1 ty was held in Delta Elementary School hot lunch room, with Cora 1 Harris, Reva Skidmore, Eleanor Skidmore and Verna Gardner as hostesses.

The end task is t0 be done! A plain old product of the high school years is very often disappointing to our youth as well as to our educators a fatefully nurturing group in which the parents are very much .included." So now we are asking each other oth-er "What Makes A Good High School?" To find the answer to that question, ques-tion, Dr. Bucher traveled for three years and asked hundreds of students, stu-dents, teachers, parents and leaders. lead-ers. In his article Dr. Bucher presents pre-sents a corporate recipe which contains con-tains seven ingredients. These ingredients are: A Sense oi Purpose; Parents who help ch:ld-ren ch:ld-ren "hold fast to the dream"; Students Stu-dents Who Assume Responsibility; Teachers Who Insist Upon Teaching; Teach-ing; Inspiring Leadership and Ad- mmistrat'on; A Far-Sighted School Board and A Supportive Commun ity. Dr. Bucher explores all seven in gredients in an easy to read man ner which causes the reader to think In terms of his own high school. In summing up Dr. Bucher points out that it takes a good community commun-ity to produce a good high schooL This community should not only include students, teachers, parents and adm'nistrators. it should, also include all people in the commun' ity, whether their children or grand children are enrolled or not, What is needed most is a change of attitude on everyone's part so it would seem that accepting in dividual responsibility would be the prevailing recommendation. The article closed with "And so. hypocrite, that's me. The other day, Myrna came home and started pressuring me to bake bread because "Lois' mother (Nor ma Waddingham) does." Some day I'm go ng to surprise that little gal. and when she comes home, I'll have the whole house slicked up, me in a lovely little cotton house dress and bread just a-bakin' all over the place. And when Kris bounces in and says, "Mom, I'm starving, what's to eat. I'm so hungry." I'll take that little child by the hand to the freshly baked bread and say, "Mother "Mo-ther baked today. How about a piece of fresh bread and butter?" But, unt 1 that day arrives, I'll keep reading everything I can get my hands on that about education on all levels. By the way the American Legion Hall is beautifully decorated and Our lion hunters, Arthur Cooper and Jesse Martin, didn't have any luck In getting their cougar this year. They saw evidence of cougar cou-gar kills (dead deer). This fall had been too mild and the deer and cats are still very high up. They crossed the trail of a big puma, but it was too cold to follow. They said that they saw lots of fresh activity ac-tivity of young mountain lions, but every time it seemed that they were a day behind their prize. These good men came down from their high camp last Wednesday evening and showed us an excellent excel-lent display of hunting skill with their hounds no, they didn't turn any house cats loose for the hounds to catch and tear up but they did show us 8-mm films in color of their bear, racoon and bobcat hunts. The people of Callao turned out in good number at the church house and were well rewarded by experiencing, as it were, real hunts with these good friends. They want to come back in March and try the mountains again. In all their hunts they have taken their movie camera cam-era along. We want to thank them again for their sharing with us the riches of their adventurous hobby. Greet Guests at Wedding Reception Miss Venice Moody became the bride of Ken Bishop Saturday, Nov.

Beverly Petersen, a charming and gracious lady was perfect in her part. Her philosophy of life was simply beautiful. Mar garet Ekins was sweet and shed real tears and had us all wiping our tears away. John Wright, a newspaper man, who was going blind, did his role magnificently. Spencer Ashby, the little henpecked hen-pecked husband of DeeAnn Niel-son, Niel-son, who was demanding, each played their parts to perfection. The doctor, Robert Barber, was all a trusting doctor should be. Shirley Iverson. a friend of the family, did well, and all helped to make it a wonderful play. They say 350 viewed view-ed the performance, but they were mostly Jr. and Sr. high students As I looked around at the people there, the thought struck me. "A lot has been said and written and meetings held to talk about build ing more and better buildings this past week, but those very people who claim to be so interested in spending so much money weren't even there to see what the school could do." Of course, with me, 1 1 haven't had a kid in high school I for over six years, but I am like the old man river, I go on and on and never miss anything. Anyway those k'ds and teachers spent many a long hour learning that play and if you weren't there you should be Delma Jean Galli, guest prize.

WE GIFT WRAP We all were blessed in many ways for coming to church on the Lord's Day. It seemed the spirit of Christmas Christ-mas was very much in the air this Holy Day. It is too bad when many of our Heavenly Father's children never go to His houses to learn of him and never share in the greatest great-est brotherhood the Christian brotherhood. A Christmas program will be shared with everyone who can come to the Callao School House, Friday night, Dec. 22, at 7:00 p.m. If anyone would be so kind as to take a part on this special program, pro-gram, they are very welcome to occupy some of the time. Mothers, Moth-ers, do you have a special story or favorite song you could offer us? Fathers, can you bring your mouth organ or banjo? Come on, kiddies, show us your talents that the Lord has blessed you with. Yes, it is more blessed to give than to receive but sharing is the perfect blend of both. Let's come to the party to have a sharing-good-time! Those who would like to bring a small gift to exchange with someone some-one else, are encouraged to do so. Let's keep these surprises under 25 cents. Sometime during the party par-ty we will exchange gifts and open them. Doesn't it all sound exciting and fun? Saturday, the 23rd, at 2 p.m., a baby shower will be given for Leah Leland at the Callao Church. It couldn't be a prettier time of the year to have a baby shower than at Christmas time. We hope to have a good group of ladies out to enjoy getting together once a-gain. WTFIMI finfFS is j law J Hill will j Ul J . o Take your pick.
