C H A P li L A V P . J R ; (3;|v VVICE during- the year, faculty and students have come together, socially, in llie A r) Chapel. Such occasions give a chance to see how well we know each other. uV These opportunltes, always welcome, are especially so now, since our course has O been so arranged that members of the Collegiate department recite in the after- noon and of the Preparatory in the morning. Recitation hours being different, study and recreation hours differ also, so that, were it not for something of this sort, there would almost necessarily be many students who would be unfamiliar with even the faces of each other. When the y ;n ' s s ' IkioI commenced, all were invited, as usual, to the Senior reception. To the old t u.lirii this is one of the most pleasant events of the year. For the first time since ciMiiin; ' lia -k he spends a social evening with many of his college friends, and forms the ac(juaintances of their friends who have returned with them. To the new student it is a most useful but trying ordeal. He shakes hands with everyone, speaks for a moment to each one. and finally goes home, knowing a great many names and faces, but not knowing which name applies to which face. I5ut the May Party was something new. The first day of the spring term, after chapel exercises, beautiful little May-basket invitations, tied with A. li. L. and Alethio- rian colors, were given to each one personally by young ladies from these societies. The meaning of it was. the two ladies ' societies invited the rest of the college to a May Party in the chapel. April 30th. And they meant it. too. A reception committee at the head of the stairs asked us to vote for a May qaeen, who, when chosen, was to occupy the throne upon the rostrum. Miss Margaret Dunbar was chosen, and with stately grace, did the honors of the occasion splendidly. Then fourteen maidens, as fair as e ' er the sun shone on. with tripping feet, twice wound and then unwound the colors about the May-Pole. ' Twas a beautiful sig-ht. But, alas, all such things must end. After another social hour, during which, light refreshments were served, the Vied rang and we bade adieu, fully satis- fied that there were no girls in all the land like those of Monmouth college.
