The Junior Class Cap Affair © ,p- |i :N10R and Senior Classes, having profiled by the experience of former years, have concluded that peace . J orc en j 0 yable than war, and for this reason evidences of class spirit have been somewhat wanting. What little excitement we have had has been created with the right spirit, and we are glad to say, has been taken in ' ' C The most exciting incident that has occurred is the Junior Class Cap Affair.” One night shortly after our ation when the Seniors were all at the Library, they began to wonder if the Juniors were not getting tired of wait- Christmas .u a ' anrval of their caps, and, thinking it a good chance to do a good, kind, neighborly act, for which they were ,ng so long j“ . j ,[ lcy at once set about to construct the headgear, and. in a short time, forty-two beautiful caps were com- ever in r ' jj nce S cn j 0 rs desired it to be a complete surprise, the most difficult thing was to decide where to conceal P| ti j (he’time of delivery. Many places, such as behind the books, on top of the ' i T children ' s cloak-rooms, ninth grade room, etc., were suggested, but no satisfac- hel ' lace of concealment could be found until our ever faithful Mrs. Niblett appeared P time (as usual) to offer her room and key. which proved to be the most convenient tal place os. next morn j ng m assern bly. Prof. Wilson read among other announcements the following c | ass ca ps have arrived, and the same may be obtained by calling upon their class teachers at once. The last words had hardly been spoken when two Seniors entered the stage and placed in front of Miss Thomas and Miss Wilcox a pile of caps on which were bril- l-antly painted ' 07.” The caps were about two feet in height and shaped somewhat hke a cone (it is barely possible that some of you have seen such worn by small children standing in the corner of a school-room, with their faces to the wall). When the 07 class president had time to collect his senses, he marched up and delivered the caps, which he and his appreciative classmates wore all day. We can ' t exactly account for it, but the shape seemed to just suit each member’s particular style of beauty, and in fact, to add to that distinguished class the needed fin¬ ishing touch. But the strangest thing about it all is, that as the Juniors did not take any extra pains to let the Seniors know that they had sent for the caps, it should nevertheless be found out, and it is still the great mystery in their minds. HOW DO THE SENIORS FIND OUT SO MANY THINGS? DDE 25

i A dear little maiden named Pete,” Made candy that couldn ' t be beat; When asked how ' twas done, She said just for fun, I put in only my looks which are sweet.” A curly young girl named Schoeraffe, Went to ride on a long-necked giraffe; Cried she, The commotion Of this critter’s motion Is enough to make anyone laugh. TO OUR SCHOOL Tune: Vive La Compagnie. Come cheerful companions, unite m our song: Here ' s to the school we love! May heaven continue its life to prolong! Here s to the school we love! Our school spirit deepens whenever we sing, W hen wide o ' er the campus our class yells we ring: Here’s to our school! Here s to our school! Here’s to the school And here s to the faculty faithful and true. Here s to our faculty! Their beautiful lives are for me and for you, Here ' s to our faculty! May they all think it pleasure to stay, Altho we are forced to go far away. Here s to the faculty! • Here’s to the faculty! Here s to the faculty we love! e love! Here s to the students, the great and the small, Here s to the students we love! May they never be late to respond to roll-call; Here s to the students we love! May we never forget the friends we have made. Nor the many hard tasks we were so afraid; Here ' s to the students! Here s to the students! Here s to the students we love! Now Flora again comes to view, (Of Miss Salladay I m speaking to you) ; Tho the class has no Roses, There s no lack of poses, But of Floras the Seniors have two. There is a sweet maiden named Jessie, She writes, but it s never an essie; AVith the Muses she strives And finally arrives With a song that is equal to Tessie.” 14
