Sleepin Raw Night Poem About Sleeping Nude In Family Bed

A playful verse contrasts night attire in a family. It humorously asserts the narrator sleeps bare under a skin-tight night and mocks others' outfits from pink gowns to silk pajamas while noting shared sleepless nights. The tone remains light and cheeky throughout.

Lower Bear Creek School News and Events Recap

Cecil Benefiel has recovered enough to go out and improve is hoped. Dorothy Chriss and Velma Brummitt, pupils from Lower Bear Creek School, visited. Rev Oral Brown was absent for a church society meeting. A masquerade party at Wm Brewer’s home yielded a good time. Some boys suspected of Halloween pranks. Frank Robertson and Wm Brewer installed a new line take for a local store, much appreciated. The bi monthly test showed improvement over the first month though results were not ideal. Absence at school remains high with hope for a drop next month.
