A tropical luau was the theme of a father-daughter dance May 31 for nearly 180 Indiana Lakeland Council Girl Scouts, their escorts and Girl Scout volunteers. The girls and their escorts dressed in Hawaiian attire, danced to music spun by a disc jockey, and enjoyed a catered dinner, games, and prizes. Tia and Tony Croy enjoyed the evening.
Girl Scouts and their mothers or adult friends recognized Mother’s Day at the Syracuse Community Building by learning how to make corsages. Following the theme of “Teacups and Bonnets,” the 130 girls and their guests drank from their favorite teacups and wore their best bonnets. Emily Sandberg brought her mother, Paula, and grandmother, Anna Sees.

Kosciusko County tax collections from November 1937 to May 1938, total $373,088.27 as compared to collections of $444,877.42 collected during a similar period for the previous year. This shows a falling off of $71,789.19 in collections.
