Rural High School Pupils Face Snowbound Trip Home
Rural high school pupils spent Tuesday night in De Soto as heavy snow blocked roads. Those who returned home did so reluctantly, with horseback or a lumber wagon the only way when shovels failed. Snow plows and drags cleared paths by Wednesday afternoon. Mrs. Vida Heymer and Mrs. Clarence Hodge are sick. The Haskell Institute chorus, about 80 voices, will sing before Easter services Sunday at 2 o clock. A chicken pie dinner and sale is planned Saturday noon at the Baptist Church 8th and Kentucky, price 50 cents.
