F1112 Banff The Annual Sixth Form Dance, held on Friday, February the seventeenth, was a great success. In addition to the main dance on Friday, there was an informal dance on Saturday night. There were twenty-two couples and twenty-live stags present. Un Friday afternoon Mrs. Olmsted very kindly gave a tea dance at her house. In the evening the dance was held at the Main House. There were twelve card dances, each having an encore, and after them came general dancing until eleven o'clock, when a flashlight picture of the dance was taken. Immediately after this XYagstaff led the Cotillion, during which the favors were distributed. Supper was served at twelve o'clock. On Saturday all the guests lunched at the school. and another dance was held in the Com- mon Room at live o'clock. There was also informal dancing after the moving picture, "Two Arabian Knights." The School owes much gratitude to Mrs. Olmsted for all that she did to make the Dance the success that it was, and the Sixth Form wishes to take this opportunity of thanking the patronesses, Mrs. Bowden and Mrs. Carr, for their help. Much appreciation is also due to Miss Chase.
