The Pre sbyterian-Episcopalian Sunday School classes have
certainly been having some intriguing aswell as informative
classes lately. Each session isheldSunday mornings. Thanks
to Wesley Knorpp, there'splentyofgood hot coffee on hand.
This is one class where you better talk back to the teacher.
Enrollment has averaged out to almost a dozen. However,
like I said, there's plenty of coffee and chairs are waiting
to be filled. The meetingplace is in the Presbyterian base-
ment.
To date, the class lessons have involved the basic church
doctrine. Each session is designed to invite investigation,
stucnd discussion.
Betty Boston's home was the scene of the February Les
Beaux Arts meeting held last Friday afternoon. Acting as
this month's hostesses were Mrs. W. K. Hardin and Mrs.
Jimmy Roberts.
Betty Boston presented the program. This is needle-point
for the group. Having previously taught a course on the
subject, Betty was able to demonstrate new skills and "tricks
of the trade." Each attending member brought an article that
she had designed herself.
Mrs. L. E. Holloway, this year's President, conducted the
business meeting. Plans for future products were taken
under discussion.
Coffee, tea, finger sandwiches and strawberrycream cUvi-
pities were served after the program.
I don't know who got the most compliments -- the straw-
berry cream divinities or Betty's enthusiastic program!
The Les Beauxs really are the "Busy Beesl" The club is
planning to sponsor an art exhibit in the Farmer's State Bank
April 29. Ben Coals' specialty of Southwest Art will be the
featured display. If all goes asplanned, a showing of a local
collection of Indian artifacts and relics will be on hand to
accentuate Mr. Conls' work.
The Frank Whites and Heckle Starks returned from their
Ft. Worth trip Friday. The couples have been traveling to
"Cow Town" for years together and always enjoy themsel-
ves immensely.
To situate themselves between convenient shopping facili-
ties and the stock show, the foursome lodged at the Broadway
Hotel on Lancaster Boulevard.
Highlighting the excursion was their tour of the Kimbell
Art Museum. The museum boosts of EuropeanandAmerlcan
19th century works of leading masters.
"For next year's trip we're looking forward to attending the
automobile showing," replied Mrs. Stark.
Golfing enthusiasts during "spring break" in the middle
of winter have been: Dorothy Breedlove, Mary Ann Sawyer,
Catherine Cain, Nell Barnhill, Avis Benson and Maxine
Hardin.

Association, is presently collecting funds for this most worthy
