They attempted to put us to sleep with their musical talents but the attempt Was a sad failure. Would you believe Hady Humphrey was noisy? You should hear him play Horne Sweet Home and My Bonnie Lies Over The 0cean, and be disillusioned. About five o'clock Miss Hanchette left us at Geneva. A little later We were put off at the junction to wait for the eight o'clock train. At last the train came and we started on the last lap. At Pavilion we watched Stewart bid a fond farewell to his girl friend. While at Wyoming we watched Eddie depart with many farewells. At last the train reached Warsaw and friends waited to welcome us. Our trip was over, with many new friends, new experiences, and a deadly tiredness to pay for it. 1 IMAGINE! Max Regan without a crush, Stuart Gay without books. Sher Baker quiet for five minutes.

Some of our party went sightseeing, two or three of the boys rented cars and went riding, some went swimming at the Ambassador, while the rest stayed at the hotel and slept or read or visited. ln the evening some of us went to a show while others remained at the hotel and threw sneezing powder at anyone who came near them. We paraded the halls until early in the morning and then to bed but try and sleep! ! Wednesday Oh yes! I remember now. It was on the Wednesday A. M. about 4:30 that Harold Byrant awoke from dreams of happy childhood, to find himself sharing his bed with a quantity of ice water. Against our wishes we arose at an early hour and packed our baggage to leave the towers and domes of the Capital City. At 9:30 we set out on a last bus tour of historic Washington together with the scenic beauty of its parks. We stopped for ten minutes at the Lincoln Memorial and then toured through the park along the banks of the Potomac. The roadway was bordered by thejapanese flowering cherry trees in full bloom. We passed by Ford's theatre where Lincoln was assassinated and then visited the section of the foreign ministers. We returned to our hotel about II 215 and were held up in the hotel until a large part of our baggage had been searched and a large number of room numbers recovered. We lunched hurriedly and left in busses for Union Station. At one o'clock we left Washington and after an hour and a half of monotonous travel we arrived in Annapolis where we fol- lowed guides on a walking tour of the various churches, state buildings and naval academy where the guard was marching and other cadets were engaged in spring football, baseball, handball and gym exercises. We left the Academy in electric cars and then came three more hours of train travel. We reached Philadelphia only to find ourselves enveloped in a snow storm. lt reminded us of good ol New York state. The trip was almost over. The busses which were to take us to the station were waiting. We boarded them and very shortly arrived at Reading Terminal and after lugging our baggage u a long flight of stairs faced the fact that the gates were closed and we wouldjhave to wait. Sitting around on our luggage we couldn't have looked as dejected as we felt for a stranger in passing asked if this was a stage troup. lt was about this time that Hady Humphrey while buying a magazine con- fided to the sales girl that Car. Keeney was his sister. At last the gates were open and we boarded the train. After lugging our heavy suitcases the length of the train in a vain search for the Warsaw car we were informed there was no such thing. We discovered friends and prepared for the ride home. About ten o'clock a gang of boys togged out from all suitcases appeared to patrol the train. They deemed it necessary to pass out white slips to everyone in the car. About the only casualty was the loss of Car. Keeney's box of salt water taffy. gif? ff-- Avi N ttf' 'iif 1 2l K1
