jfamltg 9390mm QEIuh U for very many affairs as a body this year, with the exception of the notable achievement of bringing Helen Keller t0 the Normal; although some delightful social functions have been held. Lively and varied are the accounts which have come to our ears concerning the farewell tea given by the Club to the President, Mrs. George, on the eve of her departure for Switzerland. Clever decora- tions adorned the Faculty room, arranged under the direetion of Miss Post, and songs and speeches enlivened the meeting. A delectable menu, planned by Miss MaeKenzie, was served. Steamer letters, which containedfables in verse, etc., giving advice concerning traveling, were contributed by various members of the Faculty, inserted in the covers of geography pamphlets from various countries. The unexpected ap- pearance of Dr. Shallenberger during the course of the tea added the last note of enjoyment to the affair. For some time it has been the delightful custom for the Faculty iWomenis Club to give a reception to the young women of each gradu- ating class. Informal as these affairs are, they partake of the nature of a ritual or ceremony, by which the women of Faculty, now no longer teachers and supervisors ttoverT the girls, but friends and good corn- rades all, welcome into the ranks of the teaching profession the girls who have studied and worked at Normal. - The Christmas reception carried out the holiday idea in a charm- ing fashion; a lighted Christmas tree and many decorated little tables adorned the South Society Hall. Tea was served, and old Santa ap- peared in person to give each graduate a bag of candy. The affair was a great success and forms a link in the chain of pleasant memories which keep the Normal dear to the hearts of the Alumni. The March class was cleverly entertained at a reception and tea on St. Patrick7s Day. The tea tables were decorated with the shamrock Of Ireland, and the whole room was artistically wreathed in green. Miss Beal gave a notable speech in which she so cleverly lttook 0ff7i and characterized the members of the Faculty, that everyone present recognized each word-portrait, even though no names were mentioned. Several other interesting speeches were made, and the girls left feeling that the bond had been drawn a little closer between them and inspir- ing women with whom they had worked and studied. v-The June reception is, needless to say, the biggest reception of the year, and will be larger than ever this year, as over three hundred young women will be graduated. Clever and extensive decorations are planned, and with as many witty speakers as we have on our Faculty, an enjoyable affair is anticipated by the Seniors. But, however much fun there may be, back of all the merry-making there is a little tug at the heart-strings at the thought of parting, and going out far and wide T HE members of. the Faculty W01nen7s Club have not found time
