The Blues, of which Priscilla Lord

Context - explained by ACL:

The Blues won the Skowhegan High School Magazine Sale Contest, raising money for the school athletic association, an amount the item says is about the same as last year, and crediting the business manager, Ralph Studley, for his management and effort. Shorter notes record a teacher's return home after a visit in Brewer, a departure for Fredericton, N. B., and a couple from Corinna moving into a house at the corner of West Front and Pine streets.

The Blues, of which Priscilla Lord and Louis LeCroie were the captains, of the Skowhegan High School Magazine Sale Contest, won. The magazines sold were The Ladies' Home Journal, The Country Gentleman and the Saturday Evening Post. Something over a $100.00 will be netted for the school athletic association, which is about the same as last year. Considerable credit is due Ralph Studley, the business manager of the contest for excellent management and much effort put into the work.

Miss Alta Porter, who has been a guest of Miss Charlotte Kirk, a former roommate, in Brewer, where Miss Porter taught last year, returned home Monday night.

Mrs. William Doyle left Monday night for Fredericton, N. B., where she is to be a guest of Mrs. Thomas Donnelly.
