final plans


FINAL PLANS have been made by the Ladies of the Altar Society for the Children’s Carnival to be held today (February 13th) at 7 p.m. Admission will be 15c for children and 25c for adults.
     This will be the first carnival held here in Catahoula and from the looks of costumes it will be one of the prettiest being held around this part of the parish.
     The identity of the king and queen will be kept a secret until the grand entrance at the school gym. The king’s name has been chosen as Pierre Du Bois I and the queen, Marie Belle Chance I. 
     Maids to complete the court will be Misses Ethel Savoy, Elise Latiolais, Adeline Guidry, Shirley Doucet, Laura Mae Barras, Helen Barras and Helen Courville.
     Young boys have been chosen as escorts. They are: Mervin Guidry, Charles Blanchard, Douglas Guidry, Shelby Guilbeau, Sherman Olivier and Kirby Guidry. as
