The Carnival Carnival Committee Loretta Bremer Zeta Thomas Beulah Beamish March 8, Carnival day was the biggest day of the school year. Big- gest and best because it was not the work of a single organization or class but the combined efforts of the entire student body working for a definite goal, that goal was the 1924 year book. A huge red and white “Welcome” was the first evidence of ho pitality, then one was directed downstairs to the dining room. The students themselves could hardly realize the wonderful change they wrought in the dark basement class hall. Red and white paper emerging from green boughs had been caught around a great white light forming a cone like balcony over two long white tables. The cozy corner under the stairway with its porch furniture and shaded lamps proved to be a popular place. The lab. had been tuined into a regular self serve counter, and certainly was an active place carnival night. Loretta, Zeta, Gladys and Grace helped our hungry guests and Dave and Pete exer- cised on the ice cream dip. Henry and Clarence H. actually washed dishes. After supper was over you were ready for upstairs and such a gala place as it was. The same decorating scheme had been carried out as was used in the lower hall. One could hardly imagine such a large crowd in our school house or such a gay one. Everyone wore bright and giddy clown hats, everyone was talking at the same time. Boys with sqawkers raised the pitch just a little and the Tin Pan side show orchestra was promenading about doing their bit. Si Ault’s, “They’re hot, they’re all hot” echoed by a similar statement from Emma could be heard when you came near their red and white dog stand just outside the High room. In an adjoining booth Laverne and Bee sold pounds of wonderful home made candy. The fish pond delighted the children and Clara and Margaret were kept busy supplying fish. Miss Winslow’s room had blossomed into a regular Jeffers Strand vaudeville. Dainty Ruth Margaret Beaver and Gertrude Thomas gave a much appreciated character song and dance. Ernestine and Mary made a hit as black face comedians and cleverly sang Southern darkie songs. Carmon and Eugene startled all with their clever magic. Myrtle and Gladys McBratnie dressed as ragged tramps, were well received with a program of jokes and comic songs. Thelma Kline’s solo added much to the program. The High room was the home of the movie. Two excellent com- edies, “Apple Sauce” and “All Wet” kept our guests in an uproar of laughter. “Fine pictures”, “Just as good as you see in Saginaw,” were some remarks heard concerning them. A radio concert was also en- joyed. The Dippy House had just the right amount of horror. One minute you were frightened to death and the next you were laughing wildly. A clever one act play was put on in Miss Pahl’s room. Hulda War- din as a talkative country woman waiting for the train was certainly a character. Clarence Fiting portrayed the handsome young station agent who was much bored at the lady’s remarks. The Tin Pan orchestra also gave a few special numbers. Carrie and Delia, highly painted and Gipsy attired would tell you your past, present and future for just a little tip. The Carnival was a great financial success and it made our year book possible. But the biggest victory was that of school spirit. The students of Hetnlock High School realize that we are a body working and playing together. GRACE BAXTER.
