R1c:HARDs joHN J. KASER Roaem V. TAYLOR Secretary Treasure1 President VicefPresident The Freshman Class of 1926 was one of the largest ever enrolled in the Central Evening Preparatory School. But it is not merely for numbers that we claim dis' tinction: we have greater things whereof to boast. We have entered into all the ac- tivities of the School with an enthusiastic spirit knowing that we cannot hope to get out of school life any more than we put into it. The Freshmen have taken an especially eager interest in the activities of the Lincoln Club and make up nearly a third of its membership. Apparently many of our fresh' men intend to make their success in the world by means of their ability to debate and speak in public. And who shall say that these are not powerful adjuncts to success in any line of endeavor? In the preliminary debates some of the Freshmen showed marked ability, often matching their wits successfully against experienced opponents. At the Inter-Class Mixer, which is the famous yearly social event of the Evening School, the Freshmen were in full attendance. Through active participation in the evening's festivities, they proved themselves to be good mixers and accordingly won their share of the prizes offered for the best mixers present. Likewise at the Junior Prom, the Freshies did their bit to make the event a happy and successful one, In fact, in every activity of the School our Freshmen were repref sented, and always with that enthusiastic spirit of good fellowship which made their presence welcome. Our own special event was the Theatre Party and Dinner held on the evening of April IO for and by the Freshmen, The play was Kempy, a pleasing comedy, and we had the best seats Central Theatre affords. Afterwards came the dinner, a social time for getting better acquainted. W.'xLTeR T. Rictnsans. Page fortyffoiu' . -.., ..... ......Y- ........- ....-.,...Y. Y W .

FRESHMEN EVENING AN EVENING SCENE FROM THE FIELD MUSEUM Chicago is like a charming prima donna. To see her at her best, avoid the gaudy light of da . Get the halfftones of earl morning, or better still, the dusk of evening. . Y Y . i . Go near the Field Museurii. From there a veritable fairyland springs into view. Behold, in glittering Michigan Avenue, with its multitude of brilliant hues, beautiful boulevard lights arranged along its length, the precious gown of the Prima, and in the red, green, and orange signals, the thousands of dim headlights on the motor cars, here and there colored bulbs showing on runningboards or fenders, her beautiful train. See her gorgeous tiara in the crown of lights around the top of the Blackstone, and the myriads of illuminated windows in the many hotels and oihce buildings along the drive. Observe her infinite purity in the Wrigley Building, shimmering through the dusk like a legendary ice palace, drowned in a flood of purest light, with its beacon on top piercing the sky. Veritable millions of lights spring into view with a glance toward the north at eventide. Then turn about, and gaze toward the east. An Illinois Central train, with its bright headli fht, and the man diml lighted windows of the coaches, oes rumblin rw L Y Y s. g fl' b . Afar out on the lake the steamers, with li hts along their decks, Ylide u on the Y g e is P placid waters. The Municipal Pier, with its myriad of bright stars, twinkling in the deep blaeknesses of night, and the lighthouses in this same section, also present a gorgeous sight to the eye of an interested spectator. The Prima Donna of the work 'I' if at Chicago in all its glory 'k 'l' 'F pride of the country. ELMER JESSEN SCHEER. Page furtyffive 4 1 . at . ei, ,AM ,M .
