ll. G.-H. S. TOMAHAVVK 192-l THE SUNSHINE CHRISTMAS EXCHANGE GE? At the December meeting of the Sunshine Society, it was decided to have a Christmas exchange and also a potluck lunch. Friday, Dec. 21, was the date set and all the girls were very anxious for that day to come. At last the day came and each girl brought a present which was put on our Christmas tree, and also a well filled basket, the contents of which were spread on the table in the Music room. VVe attended classes in the morning and at noon we passed down to the Music room and ate a very delicious lunch. After lunch all the girls took their chairs and formed a semi-circle around the Christmas tree. The President of the S. S. S. then read the names and the presents were distributed by four girls. After every one had opened her presents, we passed into the gymnasium and enjoyed a Christmas program given by the whole school. THE PEANUT FROLIC V GE? One morning Mr. lNlcClanahan gave each of the seniors a peanut with a red cord tied around it. We untied the cord, the peanut fell open. and in- side we found an invitation to a Peanut Frolic on December 27, at his home. This was in the Christmas vacation and of course we were glad to get together again. Such fun we had! First we hunted for peanuts that were hidden all around. Morris Driscol won the prize for Ending the most. W'e carried peanuts on knives, dressed peanut dolls, chose up sides and wrote newspapers about each other, and enioyed other interesting contests. Martin Chamberlain, Willard Ransdell, Bessie Rush, and George McCol- lough, were awarded prizes. Dainty refreshments were served by Mrs. McC1anahan. At a late hour we departed feeling that we had had the best time ever. -. BASKETBALL BANQUET 5? On Thursdav evening, March 13, at the M. E. church gym, Coach VVi1son and his squad, Vocational team, Eighth Grade team, Trainer Cassadav, and Yell Leader McLean were entertained by the Young Men's class of the local M. E. church.

Preceding the party, the ceremony which is customary in taking new girls into the society was held. Then the never-to-be-forgotten first Sun- shine party with its fun and frolic followed. As the party was held in the gym, we had plenty of room to play. VVe pushed back the chairs and then, such a time! We played drop-the-handker- chief, double-supper, three-deep, charades, and many other lively games. About nine-thirty we once more took our chairs, and gold and white ice-cream and crescents were served. The color scheme, white and gold CSunshine colorsj was effectively carried out in decorations and refreshments. Each girl departed for her home, or that of a friend, carrying in her heart the Sunshine creed and the memories of a very pleasant evening. FATHER AND soN BANQUET On Monday evening, December 10, 1923, in the gymnasium of the M. E. Church a father and son banquet was held. At six o'clock the fathers and sons congregated in the auditorium where an hour was spent in talking and getting acquainted. The fathers without sons were introduced to boys who were assigned to them as their sons for the evening. At seven o'clock a call for supper was heard. The supper was a delicious three-course affair and was greatly enjoyed by all. After the slipper was over speeches by our most influential citizens were heard. A talk by Rev. VVil- liams, of LaFayette, completed the evening's program. Every one left with the feeling that a great deal had been accomplished toward bringing fathers and sons together. It was hoped by every one that more evenings of this kind might be spent in the future. Page forty-six
