Miss Rosette Williams Will Attend ETSC with Farmersville Kin

    A Scandinavian buffet at the Texas City home of the R. M.(Pete)
Williams, was the setting Sunday afternoon of a farewell party for their
daughter, Miss Rosette Williams.

    A mid-term graduate of Texas City High School, Miss Williams plans to
reside with her grandmother, Mrs. Corene Milton of Farmersville, from whence
the pair will commute to ETSC, Commerce, during the spring semester.  Mrs.
Milton is a senior student, her granddaughter will be entering as a freshman.

    Among the twenty guests Sunday was Mrs. Anne Covey, a former teacher who
evinced special interest in Rosette and her twin (Mrs. Roselyn Williams
Wolfe) during their junior-high years.  Mrs. Covey recalled that 'her lovely
proteges, THE ROSES, took twenty-one awards in the ninth grade, including the
large speech trophy, which they "copped" cooperatively as the outstanding
speech pupils of the year!'  On Awards Day, no sooner would one of the girls
deposit an award with their mother who was sitting in the audience, until the
other had been summoned to accept another.  It came to be ludicrous after
awhile, even to proud mama!  For there were awards in the field of science,
speech, Interscholastic meets, special homeroom and ninth grade medals and
citations.

    A graduate of the Beau Ideale School of Charm, Rosette combined vacation
with summer school in Key West, Florida, last year in order to complete high
school at mid-term.  Her green eyes sparkled as she opened graduation gifts
and congratulatory greetings.  "Since Roselyn married and left," she said, "I
feel that I've just been marking time.  I want to get on with something
challenging...and what could be more exciting than going to school with
Grandy?  We only wish that Mother could to with us, but I suspect Dad and my
two little sisters would have plenty to say about that!"
