Riverside School Visits Highlight Cold Week

Miss Roe and Miss Flynn visited Riverside School amid illness reducing attendance. Seven pupils were absent this week. Mike Rebich left for a business trip to Butte and attended a farewell party with the Marovichs north of Dillon. The Country club party ended with a chicken pie supper and late visiting. Enrollment rose over the last month. The Spehar children were the last enrolled. A blizzard dropped temperatures to ten below zero, white ground sparkling with frost.
