Lost Lake Woman
Welcomed Home
From California
By Doris Hiekson
LOST LAKE It seems that
most of the Lost Lake people
keep themselves busy and hidden,
because when I tried to get in
touch with them for this newsy
little column they weren't to be
found. And the one I did get in
touch with seemed to be hungry
as you will see in the following.
The H, A. Loertseher family
were among the dinner guests of
the "Welcome Home Grandma"
dinner held in honor of Mrs. Bo-
ney Loertscher on her return home
from California.
Others enjoying this fine din-
ner and family get together were
Sandy Mattson of Shelton, Joy and
Bernard Loertscher of Elma, Mr.
and Mrs. Rudy Loertscher and
Fred of N[ontesano and Miss Bea
Nason of Dayton Commtmity. To
their dismay there were no Sour
Dough Biscuits se'ved.
The hungry dinner guests of
Miss Peggy Bloomfield were the
Clyde McIrvin's.
Miss Patty Parker was the Sun-
day evening guest in the Don Sac-
get home.
Incidentally, Donda and Kathy
Saeger. like most teenagers, are
hungry all the time, so late Sun-
day evening they baked them-
selves a cake to enjoy as an af-
ter dinner, before bedtime snack.

he put it, "I decided I wanted to

Flu, Other Aihnents Cut Attendaace
And Force Cancellation of Activities
Attendance figures for the past
two weeks have been much below
no1Taal due to a series of epidem-
ics that particularly afflict young-
sters m adition to assorted flu
viruses that are not partial to any
age group. To accompany wide-
spread cases of flu we are hav-
ing mumps, measles and chicken
pox. From 21 to 24 daily absences
were reported last week with the
number constantly increasing as
those who were exposed became
ill. It was necessary to cancel
a number of school activities in-
cluding, the swim program and a
postponement of group pictures
for the annual.
Dr. DeShay, district health of-
ricer, and Delores Skinner, school
nurse, made a special trip to the
area to investigate the situation
and visit homes of those afflicted.
The type of flu virus has not been
identified and as a result half
a dozen different blood specimens
were taken which were sent to
Washington, D.C. for analysis. The
results of these laboratory tests
have not yet been received.
A pink-pong table was recently
added to the gym equipment. It
is constantly in use during the
noon hour and regular gym per-
iods. Another new and decidedly
more lethal item is the "bucking
broncho" which is used by only
the more adventurous who might
be interested in a rodeo career.
The critter, which almost defies
description, is a steel barrel upon
which is placed a saddle and the
bucking action is produced by
ropes suspended from the ceiling.
When one's sadistic friends get
hold of those ropes it is only the
best riders who can remain aboard
without pulling leather.
AN ARMED SERVICES prog-

Representatives from the various
military services will be present
to present the advantages to be
gained from their particular
branch.
A special school board meeting
was held last week to consider
the matter of setting up a special
English remedial program in the
elementary grades. All lower
grades would place special em-
phasis on training in basic phon-
ics. Small groups would also be
assigned to an improved reading
class. Our teachers have been
aware for some time that students
Hummel's 5th and 6th grade room
last week. The various art ob-
jects were made and decorated
by the students themselves and
ranged all the way from exotic
tropical butterflies to ballarinas.
The entire display showed origin-
ality and imagination far beyond
what one might expect from stu-
dents of their age group.
FROM THE LIBRARY
By ShiHee Murphy
The new books are processed
and on the shelves. There will be
about 20 new titles arriving be-
fore the end of the school term
to complete this year's selection.
The children have read wide-
ly from the 398's and the 500's
since Christmas. Perhaps the "fact
finding" excursions and the "plea-
sure trips" we have taken were
worth while.
Student librarian Judy Landis
has begun typing sets of catalog
cards. This is excellent training in
preparation for employment she
hopes to secure with the State
Library following graduation this
spring.
Loretta Beerbower is makin a
poster to arouse interest in or
coming Big Circus of Books. This
display will he shown to our PTO
group April 10. Famous big top
entries, "The Fat Lady" freaks,
thrills galore, wild animals and a
"Parade of Star Performers" will
be waiting to delight one and all.
See you there.

by the domestic science depart-
ment under the direction of Mrs.

darling centerpiece was the subject
of much admiration. It consisted
of madrona branches inserted in

hats made of nut cups.adorned the
branches, giviug an unusually
pleasing effect.
