This year the Philos won again. so the Whittiers being good sports, decided in a hurry scurry way to give the Philos a little pa1'ty. We invited them to-day and to- morrow we had it. They all thought it was a bluff, be-ause they thought we couldn't get anything up so quick. The evening was spent in playing games. after which a light lunch was served. They then went home, thinking what a fine time they had. N S YO JUNIOR AND SENIOR PARTY On February 21, 1919 the Junior and Senior girls decided to entertain the remainder of the High School. While we were planning for it at our first meeting. Brownie crawled to the attic and listened to what was said, but being good, did not tell anybody. Every one was getting sort of suspicious now. henr- ing of Junior and Senior girls having meetings, but in the end it was a What Party. Until the end they did not know what it was. Everyone was say- ing. What is it? They all came and they saw what it was-a jolly good time. N. S. '20.

There is a jolly bunch of men, The same is our School Boardg To any who know a better group, We'll offer a reward. We sent ambassadors to themg A certain day last Fall, That Board just voted unanimously To buy us a Basket Ball. And when we showed our enthusiasm They knew one would not do, So quickly took the hint and said, We'll get the girls one too. The next trouble that confronted us Was lack of a place to play, And our Board took up that matter And acted without delay. They considered the matter wiselyg Then sent us to Emrick'sg And as we cleared that school house out We voted those men, just Bricks. OUR BOARD 50. They gave us fifty dollars too, To buy our base ball suits, And as we play and beat all teams The school stands back and routs. And one day later they said to us, 'tlf you do your Very best We'll back you straight in every thing, And pay for the whole contest. Now listen O, ye people, all Hearken and give ear, We've gladly used these gifts of yours Throughout the whole school year. The next term's work will soon begin, To do the things we love We'll need a gym all fitted up With an auditorium above. Please grant us this-our one request, And then no school can vie.
