THE s1LHoUETTE. I7 IUNIOR RECEPTION. V ' AST JUNE the Class of '02, thinking by this means to make a htting end to the year and to commencement week, determined to inaugurate a custom of the Junior Class tendering each year a reception to the Seniors. After due deliberation and much to the delight of the staid Seniors this dream became a reality, In preparation for- this, the great event of the year, we juniors labored night and. day and a Friday evening, june 28, received the reward of our toils in .hearty applause and congratulations from the attending public and especially from the Class of ,OI.' It was a source of wonder to all that the halls and grounds could be made to assume such a beautiful appearance, and indeed the grounds lit by japanese lanterns and with globes of vari-colored light swinging from the trees afforded a perfect paradise for promenaders. The lower hall draped with bunting and decorated with tastefully arranged flowers made an ideal place for dance and merrymaking. The first part of the evening was given up to a debate between members of the junior Class. This portion of the evening's program was open to the public and taking advantage of the opportunity they came in goodly numbers. Introductory remarks were made by President Drummond and then the audience settled itself to an enjoy- ment of the debate proper. The question under consideration was : Resolved- That fiction has done more for the advancement of civilization than history. The affirmative was upheld by Miss Hemingway and Messrs. Osterhout and Stewart, the negative by Miss Sperry and Messrs. Murdock and Hom pe. Both sides handled the proposition in masterful style. Messrs. Aiken, Hoyt and Myer sat as judges 1 - ,BHl'flTlhYillfilas. 24. 2 '- fliliilllllllllliilll and after carefuldeliberation gave their de- cision in favor of the affirmative. As the remainder of the evening present- ed attractions only for the two upper classes, the general public dispersed leaving none but words of commendation and approval. After the departure of the crowd the Senior Class was received in the office by the reception committee of the juniors succeed- ing which a bountiful luncheon was served in the various rooms of which all partook with seeming pleasure and zest. It was whispered that some deemed this use of the recitation rooms quite superior to the intend- ed one. After this retrenchment'Stevensi orchestra furnished music for dancing which needless to say was thoroughly enjoyed by all. ' The reception finally ended, as of necessity do all things earthly, but not until the hours of early morn had filled our cup of ,pleasure to overflowing and though but a memory lingers of that j oysome hour yet will it linger long. . C The Class of 'oz sincerely desires and hopes that other classes will be encouraged by this hrst success and will perpetuate this reception until it becomes a tradition and a hallowed custom of our school. , KU Prof. Strong,-To a third year student who is having difriculty with his Geometry : Don't add like that.
