Then guests begin to arrive at the hotel and register as Miss or Mr. Smith. Then we learn that when Ginger Gay is exci- ted she is subject to violent spells of hiecoughs. Then all the girls start an epidemic of hiccoughing and in turn each is sus- pected of being the missing heiress. Amusing situations develop such as MacNulty's being locked in e closet, and Ginger Gay's and George, the porter's being put in a chest. Besides this, Minnie, the maid, hears a conversation in which Peggy and Sue talk about chloroforming Ginger, their dog, but Minnie thinks they mean Ginger Gay. This further com- plicates things. Finally Ginger Gay is found, and we find out that she has been a victim of amnesia. The pearls are found and thenve find out the minor details. MacNulty and Corrie are detectives. Sue and Peggy are actresses who are trying to skip their hotel bill. Bobby and Jackie are a boy and girl in love. With the heiress and the pearls being found, and Jackie and Bobby being married by the Constable everything ends happily.

' ' ' 'TWT-e 'Hr' f H4 ' ' Ya'hnP1 - .194 ACTIVITIES Along in October, the Junior Class put up their pennant starting the annual pennant rush between the Junior and Senior Classes. Try as they might, the Seniors were unable to find it, looking on all the telephone poles except the right one near Jack Shedenhelm's. Even after it was Nflashed' the Juniors still protected it and kept it, in spite of a determined onslaught by the Seniors. Then in April the Seniors put up their pennant, the Juniors spent a busy night searching for it, but to no avail they neglected to look closely in the neighborhood of Ginny Sander's. The next day when the two classes came to school it looked like 'tacky day.' The Seniors, to be avenged on the before conquering Juniors, fought back valiantly against the foe, and emerged victorious, the pennant still in their possession, In addition to our faculty, we have many more persons who have been of valuable assistance about the school this year. Mr. Swope, known as WPeenie' by most of us, has worked faithfully and has accomplished a great deal in keep- ing clean and improving our schoolhouse and surrounding grounds. We appreciate his assistance in putting up stage scenery and many other little things, that he has voluntanly offered to help us do. - Mr. Jones, our bus driver, has been of great service in bringing us to school each day, as well as taking us places for ball games and other special occasions. He is punctual and can be depended upon to be at any place at the time arranged for the meeting. Another great aid to us students is the library, We have been assisted in finding what we wanted by Miss Opal Eckert and June Zimmerman. They are always ready to help us in our work, spending much time in helping us find the required reference books. Our cafeteria where lots of us eat our lunch every day could not have been operated with efficiency that it has maintained without Mrs. Diebert and Mrs. Sager. We appre- iiate the time that they have spent in preparing our good unches. Last, but not least, our N Y,A. student have been of great help to us, They seem continually to be some- thing for the teachers or preparing tests on the and the like. We could not get along without them.
