SCHOOL CHRONICLE Mrs. Stephens, put on an unusually fine program today. It was based on a typical American homo, with a United States Marine graciously portraying the father, Kay Black the mother, Betts Hansen their daughter, and Leland Bull their son. As in pre- ceding years, food, clothing and money were brought for our Thanksgiving offerings, the latter to be taken to the Seattle Children's Home. December 16- The traditional Manor Hall of Bush opened its portals to welcome the mothers and dads tonight. For the new parents, who were greeted by Phil Rattray and Midi Sawyer Cas the Lord and Ladyl, it was a thrilling sight to see the stained glass windows, the tapestries, and the many wreathes and evergreen chains. Another nice thing was that during the course of the evening, there was a time when every parent could say, That's my Johnny or, there's Susie. The program consisted of several dances by Parkside, two by Bush, music from the chorus and orchestra, and the Junior class presentation of The Juggler of Our Lady. When the program was complete, the cast of the play and the members of the Glee Club piled into three station wagons and were whisked away to the Se- attle Children's Home to give a command performance.

Mrs. Paul Pigott generously gave us the use of her ballroom,-and did we have fun! After the dance, half of us stayed over night lby this time it was morn- ingl with Ann Pigott and the other half with Margot Royce. Noon found us over at the Pigotts' eating breakfast, cleaning up, and hearing who had a date with whom after this very successful mixer. October 29- Today, as the colors of orange and black loomed before us, we realized the gym stage was set for the annual Halloween party. The upper school under Mr. LaGrille and the social committee officiated, and the program included many novel- ties. In the parade of costumes, Alan Greiner won first prize modeling the scare-crow his mother had made, and Shirley fthe birdl Steele was outstanding. Games and races of all types followed, and were climaxed by the passing out of ice- cream, and nuts which appealed to young and old C?J alike. November 24 This year at Thanksgiving, more than ever before, we of Helen Bush School realized how much we have to be grateful for. Keeping this in mind, the sophomores, with the help of iam
