"WHITE FEATHER"
By Margaret Koebrick
OARAH V A 1. f) E R A S makes
headlines in the fashion world
when she shows off a toast-color-
ed sweater worn over a white
blouse, sugar-coasted with blue
and yellow figures. This is team-
ed with a black, straight skirt.
A gleaming gold bracelet, white
bobby sox and brown loafers
complete a fool proof receipe for
compliments.
One boy with that happy-go-
lucky air is Jean Whinery when
he sails by in a slate-blue, cotton
shirt and levis. High points are
pink and black socks and black
shoes.
Betty Miles is eye-arresting as
she exhibits a blue, three-quar-
ter length sleeved blouse invit-
ingly detailed with tiny tucks
racing down the bodice, paired
with a navy-blue skirt. A delib-
erate simplicity of styling is
achieved with the addition of a
dark, blue purse, white bobby
sox and black loafers.
Beautifully in tune with the
times is Cliffreda Smith arrayed
in a deep-purple, corduroy skirt,
ideally mated with a shell-while
blouse conjured with an abun-
dance of ruffles, piped with navy
trimming, flowing down the bod-
ice. A poised effect is achioved
with a camel-colored belt and
flats.
A beautiful sight to see, com-
ing or going is Joy Kepler in a
frosty-white blouse worn under
a yellow, black and brown color-
ed jumper, styled with an ex-
pansive skirt. A matching tie
situated beneath the collar, white
bobby sox and white loafers dis-
close a profusion of practical
fashion taste.
Joe Young appears to be going
places as he flashes by wearing
levis and a vibrant, tangy-color-
ed shirt, shot with tiny black ar-
rows on the pocket and collar.
Softening influences are red,
black and brown socks, and
brown shoes.
rooms of EHS
| She is a member of the Pepelts,
BMC, Adelante, and FHA and
served as student librarian the
first of the year. She was also an
employee of the Carnegie library.
Some of her favorites are listed
as color; red, subject; English,
sport; football, flower; rose, mag-
azine, Vogue, and orchestra; Guy
Lombardo.
Her favorite pastime is reading
which incidentally is a great com-
fort to her now. “A penny saved is
a penny earned" is her favorite
quotation and her pet peeve is peo-
ple who show irreverence during a
prayer.
Betty says her mose exciting
event was when she enrolled in
EHS.
Miss Shanklin’s second hour
American history class was honor-
ed last Monday when Mr. H. M.
Woods visited the class and gave
a talk on the history of El Reno
and the surrounding vicinity. His-
tory students have made tenative
plans lor organizing a junior his-
torical society in effort to promote
more interest in local historical
surroundings.
Mr. Woods spoke to the students
about the history of El Reno and
Fort Reno. He supplied the stu-
dents with many interesting un-
known facts about a town called
Frisco which was located north of
Yukon, and Reno City which was
located many years ago north of
El Reno across the North Cana-
dian river bridge.
The students enjoyed the many
pictures which tell the story of
the first run in 1889 and facts
about the settlers. Mr. Woods also
showed the class many other pic-
tures of El Reno when it was a
town of tents and wooden struc-
tures with false fronts.
The students enjoyed listening to
their guest speaker and state that
they now have a better idea of
the town in which they live.
Teacher Thrilled'
As Honor Awarded
PUBLISHED IN INTEREST OF SCHOOL SPIRI
"Thrill of a lifetime!” was the
feeling expressed by Mrs. Edna
Kelly, who further commented, “I
was never so excited and happy in
all my life." Mrs. Kelly who has
been a teacher in El Reno Public
schools for thirty-two years was
honored as woman of the year in a
contest sponsored by the Jaycee
Jaynes. Mrs. Kelly was nominated
by the American Association of
University Women and El Reno
Business and Professional Womens
club.

Leaping sutkienly out of the night might
be a youngsters idea of fun.
But when "kid .tuff” driven. shoot out
of the dark without a light-that’s no
laughing matter.
All careful drivers remember to switch

Forgetting causes an appalling loss of life
