Garten is a lobesiome Efjutg IF Cedy hadn ' t caught scarlet fever and retired to the infirmary, taking Ruth with her, the Sophomore banquet wouldn ' t have been postponed and we should have lived to tell a different tale about April 24, 1914. As it was, instead of having our plans formulated by a committee appointed by the chair, we had no plans and all things worked together for originality. Each member of our precocious class had a chance to react to her environment, and we responded nobly. As the last frilly, fluffy Senior (and Junior) disappeared through the gym door at seven-thirty, bound for a peaceful and congenial evening together (an event in itself memorable enough), we leaped through the window of Taylor and took possession.
