hair. It is May Day, the Juniors' own day, and as the sun rises, they plant, with solemn rites and ceremonies, the little vine that is to symbolize their love for their Alma Materg ever climbing, ever green. SCENE IV Once more the tennis court: once more our heroines are victorious, and this time there is a beautiful silver cup on which their names are to be inscribed, and so once more the class of 1910 has proved its worth. SCENE Y Class Day has come and the juniors must make their last appearance, so they show how the beautiful little princess was christened and blessed and crowned in the palace of the king, her father, and how she became the Sleep- ing Beauty, and how she was finally awakened by the handsome prince. There is much applause from the spectators scattered on the campus green. And now the fatal moment has arrived and here before them all, their friends and well-wishers, they receive from the out-going class the sign of Seniordom, the cap and gown, which is to grace and dignify them through the coming year. S ACT IY-SCENE I Time-The year IQOQ-IO Behold evolution at work! Once they were Sophomores, bowing low before the Seniors, now they are Seniors and are bowed to in turn. Tonight the bowing takes the form of a theater-party, and the Sophomores are doing their best to make the Seniors forget their cares and troubles and return to the days of their youth. And the Sophomores are successful. SCENE II The Seniors give a supper to the Sophomores in the Senior room. The scalloped potatoes refuse to scallop, and they forget the gravy, and there is no salt in the peas, but the supper is a grand success. The Sophomores over- look any little shortcomings and every one is happy. EPILOGVE Here ends the manuscript. But there is a foreshadowing of things to come. Tree Day and Commencement and then long and happy lives for each and every one of us, with our hearts and minds trained and strengthened by our Alma Mater and by the life that we have spent within her walls. 16
