Jones. the mem-bers of the lloard of liducation. and the school faculty. Each mem- ber of the society was allowed to invite one guest. Over one hundred people were there to enjoy the party so successfully planned by the various committees. The lunchroom and auditorium were effectively decorated with red and green crepe paper. Before the arrival of Mr. Seeley. who was unavoidably delayed. the other guests and students sang some school songs in the old auditorium. After .Xlr. Seeley's arrival the group went to the lunchroom where the banquet was served by a capable committee of the Ilonor Society. .Xfter the banquet Klr. llorend called on the various grades for their contribution of either a yell. song. or recita- tion. Finally, Mr. Seeley was callediin for his words of wisdom. Ile made many humorous remarks about the speakers. Then he held everybody in suspense with his speech. Aint The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing and play- ing games. As a result of the banquet there were a few bills unpaid. lt was decided to take charge of one of the monthly movie programs. To arouse more interest and enthusiasm a ticket-selling campaign was organized. Two teams. The Comet nd 'AThe Skyrocketf' were formed. with lidmund tlicrczynski nd Tommy Moccia as leaders. The contest was a trip to the moon. This proved, as other contests, the fine spirit of cooperation which .Xrdsley students have. The last social affair of the year. sponsored by the llonor Society. was the annual picnic held in May. The Comets had thc pleasure of doing the kitchen police ' duty.
