.1. .1- v- v- ACTIVITIES Q. a- at at V- v- .1- v- Slumber Party of Senior Girls HE Senior girls, thinking it necessary T to live up to their new title of dignity, decided to have a slumber party. This was held at the home of Hollie Per- singer Sept. 11, on the large sleeping porch. In order to have a proper beginning, they all attended revival meetings; then, going back to the house, they toasted marshmallows, sang songs and told ghost stories. About eleven thir- ty, thinking it time to ll slumber? they all retired to the sleeping porch, but slumber did not come until they had tired of pillow fights and the like. Lights were extinguished and everything was calm. All seemed asleep, when 10! uIs it rain- ingW, some one asked. On investigation Annie Weller was found nearly drowned in .her bed. Below stood the noble Ol Senior boys, holding the hose and demanding a handout. They were given lemons, all that could be found, and soon .. left, and again silence reigned'over all. Once more asleep, but not for long, for from Miss Belschnerls corner levidently having for- gotten time and placel she awoke the girls with iiDarn that roosterlll It was morning, and the girls thanked Chanticleer for his early GU crow- ing. They had awakened just in time to partake of a waffles breakfast. After breakfast pictures were taken, and at noon all went home wonder- ing what had become of the slumber in the slum- ber party. Senior Reception As soon as the gymnasium of the new high school building was completed the Seniors gave a reception to the other classes and the Faculty. t 1. On this particular occasion, which we hope will be established as an annual affair, teachers and pupils mingled for the purpose of becoming bet- ter acquainted with one another and to establish the feeling of eo-operation which marked the whole school year. ii A newspaper, with Randal Morrow as editor, was one of the best features of the evening. Here, in the lost and ,found column,,we found many of our lost articles. The ll Style and Bean- ty Page? also served as an invaluable aid in the

Punch and wafers were served by the Senior girls, while the guests listened to music by the Victrola. I About eleven the guests departed for their homes, each tired but happy, dreaming of more receptions to come with each succeeding year. Christmas Dinner The Senior Class tendered Harvey Abel a Christmas dinner December 18, 1914. This was in the form of a farewell dinner, as we were to lose him from our ranks. We were sorry to lose him, as he was a faithful and much esteemed member of our class, and his leaving also left our number of boys still smaller. We now have only five. i Two tables were set and prettily decorated with red and white. In order to have llmusic with our meal,H we listened to the music of the Victrola; A sumptuous three-course dinner was served. Every one ate of the good things until there was no more to eat. We departed at a late hour with only one regret-that we were to lose one of our old schoolmates. Valentine Party The Valentine party given by the sponsors of Classes '15 and 16 the evening of February 15 in the High School gym will be remembered by all those present as one of the many real good times of theH. S. career. As the guests arrived, about eight olclock, they found the gym tastefully decorated with red hearts. Heart tallies were given out and amuse- ment was furnished in the way of progressive games. Different occupations were carried on at each table. We wish we had time and space to describe some of the valentines made, or to repeat some of the valentine telegram messages sent. H. A., 15, and E.
