Formal Socials Highlight Early Week in Armory and Opera House
An informal dance for about fifteen couples occurred Monday after drill hours at the armory. Mrs. Lawrence Hasselquist ended her dancing school term with a successful recital in the opera house annex on Wednesday. Strawberry ice cream was served. The musical club met last Friday with Miss Jessie McIntire, focusing on Beethoven and a life sketch by Miss Hazel Baker, followed by selections from his works. Miss Fay Connell hosted a six o'clock dinner Friday, May 27, honoring Miss Cora Spears of Elgin and guests from Corydon and town, with a red rose themed decor and elaborate menu.
