The First Party in the C. S. S. Dormitory Student Government made the rules for the new dormitory and Student Government gave us our first party. Promptly at nine o'clock on Hallowe’en Eve we closed our books and went over to the Club House, to be greeted there with fathomless darkness, hollow groans and clammy hands. Then after this ‘“‘spooky”’ reception, we all sat down and listened to the “‘sad but true” tale of the girl who died of happiness while at C.S.S. The important parts of her earthly body were then passed around in order to lend veracity to the story. We tossed her eyes about and felt of her brain, we carefully handled her tonsils and teeth, only to learn that her eyes were grapes; her brain, sticky dough; her tonsils, macaroni; and her teeth, unbaked Boston Beans. After we had sufficiently recovered our self-control, we were invited to visit the Mellowy Marshs and the Doenuts’s hole. When we had exercised all our skill in these places, we were asked to visit the Food Pushers’ Alley, and here we all did ourselves justice. What girl wouldn’t be happy with sweet cider, apples, doughnuts and cheese, and fifteen pounds of chocolates, provided by Dean Davis to gladden her heart? After we had eaten as much as we could, we sat around and sang until it was half-past-ten o’clock, when we all went to our 1espective rooms and hustled about it, too, in order to show our appreciation by having the lights out at eleven o'clock and the house absolutely quiet. ‘ And to whom were we especially indebted for this party? Well, Ruth Stick- ney had charge of the entertainment, Mildred Macleod planned the refreshments, and Miss Page was general manager of this first and very successful social affair. 135
