January 6Th, The nighf of The Prom, was The highlighT in The Seniors' socal liTe. This aTfair was anTicipaTed wiTh The greaTesT enThusiasm imaginable, and, Therefore, was very insTrumenTal in The paymenl' oT dues. And so The Senior boy, fresh from his shower, and The Senior girl a Trifle Tired from her elaborafe painsTaking in dressing, buT, neverfheless, joyous and eager, enfered The KnighTs of Columbus To be greefed by The melodious music of Merrill Hughes and his orchesTra. True To The Lincoln TradiTion, iT was raining, which made The affair seem more homelike. Under The influence of The semi-formal cloThes, The behavior of The group was more or less dignified, and iT was difficulf To know aT a glance wheTher iT was a Teacher or a sTudenT whom you were so warmly greeTing. Such was The aTmosphere, ThaT The Lindy was diminuendoed down To a slow walTz. SpoTIighT dancing was feaTured during The evening, and The mosT delighTful of all The surprises were The beauTiful dance favors which were immediaTely puT away as memenTos. Groups formed around The floor. From The balcony, The onlookers could see a moving mass of blending colors as The seniors danced abouT. When mid- nighT approached, The floor slowly began To clear.
