Page 10 TRADITIONS The observance of the traditions of the Arriba High School begins each year with the initiation of the freshmen. This ordeal is heralded about as possessing horrors unmentionable, but usually proves less terrifying than the freshmen have been led to believe it will be. After they have been put thr,ough the vario-us stunts devised by the upperclassmen, they are still able to enjoy the delicious refreshments which are served to them. A very popular event of each year is the school carnival. It is the first public entertainment of the school year, and always attracts a large crowd and nets a good sum of money which is used to finance the various proj- ects undertaken by the school. On the afternoon preceding the Christmas vacation, a Christmas party is given in the auditoriumg faculty and pupils join in the merry-making, and a gayly l3I'iH1m9d ChI'iStmaS tree With gifts for everyone adds to the enjoy- ment of the occasion. The preparation for and presentation of an operetta by the music de- partment Of the SC11001 is 21 Yearly CL1Stom. It was observed this year by the rendering Of the Japanese operetta, Yanki San, on the evening of March twenty-third. The dramatic events of the year consist chiefly of the plays given re- spectively by the members of the junior and senior classes in the spring. A gift presented by the senior class to the high school is an annual custom. The most significant social observance is the banquet served yearly by the juniors in honor of the seniors. Class Day exercises are held by the Senior class. Upon this occasion they read their history, prophecy, poem, and Will, and sing class songs. For the past three years the class in Journalism has published a school paper, the Arriban. This year it W as changed from a bi-monthly to a monthly publication. The issuance of a school annual is the most ambitious of our school projects, involving much time and labor. The class in Journalism takes just pride in presenting the volume of 1928.
