Supper Tuesday
Rev. J. P. Fleming is
Speaker on Father and
Son Relationships
Fathers were special guests at an
informal chili supper given by the
Hi-Y club Tuesday evening in the
high school cafeteria, in observ-
ance of national Father-Son week.
Carl Taylor of Dallas, area sec-
retary of YMCA, was present and
appeared on the program.
Harry Robinson, president of the
club, was toastmaster for the oc-
casion. and Supt. H. O. McCain
gave the invocation. Jack K. Bell,
Jr., welcomed the dads and W. E.
Chalmers gave- the response, fol-
lowed by a sing-song led by Tice
Davis.
“What the Hi-Y Means to Boys”
with changing the traditional date.
He has begun his proclamations
with "I, Franklin D. Roosevelt,
president of the United States,” in-
stead of the usual historical intro-
duction.
Although recent events have
brought about what may be a turn-
ing point in the greatest war in
our history, students will guage
the severity of the conflict by the
fact that the 1942 Thanksgiving is
proclaimed a day of solemnity and
prayer, and not of exultation.
