Homecoming at
Avalon Sunday
A throng of Avalon citizens
and former residents attended
the homecoming there Sunday
in the High School Gym. H. L.
Southard, president, presided at
a brief business meeting and
those attending were registered
by Mrs. Herschel Smith.
Barbecue, beans, salad, bread,
ice tea and dessert were served,
the food having been prepared
by a special committee of the
local experts.
Exes were there from almost
every state in the Union and
from many Texas towns, besides
the present residents- Glen
Smith was back for the first
time since moving to California
more than a quarter-century
ago, though his wife and chil-
dren have visited in Avalon a
number of times since the fam-
ily moved to California.
Reminiscing school days and
other times in the lives of the
present and past Avalon citizens
made up the lively time of the
enthusiastic group.
The homecoming is held ev-
ery second year.

in a recent letter, “so many
blessings and my heart full of
love for my friends and beauty
beyond measure our good Lord
provides in his wonderful crea-
tion.” Mrs. Castellaw loves good
books, poetry, humor. A 10-min-
ute visit with her will surely
change a “blue” day into a cher-
ished memory.
