Egg Hunt For
ScKool Cnildren
The teachers at the Thi rd Ward
School, Misses Ethel Hines, Mar¬
garet Eutory, Louise Fisher, Wil¬
lie Willis, and Mi's. R. E. Lee,
complimented their pupils with a
most enjoyable Easter Egg Hunt
yesterday afternoon, the hunt be-
ing given on the school grounds.
There were about one thousand
vari-colored eggs and two rabbits
hidden by the teachers, and look¬
ing for them afforded the boys
and girls a delightful pastime of
about an hour.
The Third Ward School campus
is delightfully adapted for Egg
Hunts and in fact almost any kind
of lawn entertainment, since the
teachers have made the grounds
so attractive with schrubbery,
hedges and flowers, and the affair
of yesterday was quite a success.
