At 2:45 everything began to grow dark. The sun was hidden, street lights and home lights had to be used.  The sky was red!  We dismissed at 3:00  and didn’t get home any too soon before a good rain! The sky cleared.  Went to the Woman’s Club and Alyce Claire played before Velma had play practice.  Church dramatic club gives “Patty Makes Things Hum”  on Saturday night.
