Decatur County Journal Leon, Iowa Thursday, November 16, 1911 The pie supper and programme at the Lone Star school Friday night, drew a large crowd in spite of the bad roads. The house was crowded to its utmost capacity. The program was something new and pleasing to all. Decorated envelopes were sold. The sale being cried by Captain J.L. Gooding, of Kellerton. He is surely a good auctioneer and had lots of fun out of the boys over the pies they bought. His good work will long be remembered by the Lone Star people. There were thirty-four pies and the sale amounted to thirty dollars making an average of 88 cents per pie. The proceeds are for the purpose of building up the school library. The highest price paid for a pie was $4.50. After the supper was over the people from Decatur City sang some songs and gave their yells and were answered by Lone Star and Leon with their yells. After this three cheers for the Lone Star teacher, Miss Nina Still were given and all departed hoping they would have an opportunity to return this winter. ---------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert December 14, 2009 [email protected]
