The gym was transformed into a place of beauty. The walls and the ceilings were artistically decorated with a network of blue and gold crepe paper, while baskets of Howers, here and there, added to the effect. An excellent orches- tra furnished music for the dancing. The delicate spring shades of dresses Worn by the girls seemed to complete the picture. Although it was the Senior Prom of the Class of 1926, it seemed a veritable Fairyland. Page 20 L 1
