. ' m R Evlrzw The evening was spent in playing Bunco and other games. Delicious refreshments consisting of fruit salad and cookies were served. Everyone declared they had had a fine time in spite of the fact that someone tried to ruin the eats by adding a liberal amount of pepper. St. Patrick's Party The Junior class issued an invitation to the rest of the High School students for a St. Patrick's Day party at the High School gym. The gym was decorated in green and white in honor of the good St. Patrick. The party began with a game of Going to Jerusalem, using shamrocks pasted on the walls in the place of chairs. After this a contest consisting of several events was held in which members from each class participated. The Sophomore class easily won the contest as their contestants took sev- eral first and second places. Refreshments consisting of sandwiches, pickles, green and white ice cream, shamrock cookies and cocoa were served. After playing several other games, the guests departed, voting the Juniors royal entertainers. Freshmen Parties At the beginning of the school year, the Latin 1 class was divided into two groups known as the Astra and the Semper Parati. During the year vocabulary contests were held and the loser of each contest gave a party in honor of the winner. Three such parties were given this year. The first given by the Semper ?arati was a Christmas party. Games appropriate to the occasion were indulged in and delicious refreshments were served. The second, a Valentine party, was given by the Astra. A valentine box, with valentines made by each person present, was the feature of the evening. The Astra also gave the third party which was in the form of a treas- ure hunt. The party was very successful in spite of the fact that part of the refreshments disappeared in a most mysterious way. Weiner Roast On Monday evening, May 7, the High School students journeyed to Spain's Bridge to attend a weiner roast given by the Sophomore class. Various games were played until the exercise made everyone hungry. Then weiners and marshmallows were roasted and buns, pickles and coffee were served. When the eats had been disposed of, Bud Hasselbring en- tertained us by singing and playing his uke until the party broke up. J unior-Senior Banquet On the evening of May 26, the Juniors gave a banquet in honor of the Senior class. They motored to Danville, Where the banquet was served at seven o'clock at the Hotel Grier-Lincoln. After partaking of a bountiful repast, they went to a show at the Ter- race Theater. Everyone enjoyed the banquet very much and the Seniors expressed their thanks to the Junior class for the splendid entertainment.

forty-eight 153 REVIEW T0 THE JUNIORS Blessings on thee, Junior Class, As from school the Seniors pass, You must fill their places now, Bear their burdens, take their vow. With your wisdom, wiser still, Aided by an iron will, With dignity upon your face, You may imitate their grace. From their hearts they wish you well. More than parting words can tell. fWith apologies to John Greenleaf Whittier.l -Roma Dryden. SPRING Why is everyone so gay? I musingly asked myself today. It seemed so strange for yesterday The world was cold and sad and gray. But now all things seemed diiferent quite For everyone within my sight Was happy and gay, with joy at its height Like birds that sing at morn's first light. I spied a child over there in a swing And I asked her the cause of this wonderful thing. As a robin above us began to sing She smiled and said, Don't you know 'Tis Spring. ' -Frances Whitaker. MUD PIE DAYS Down in a little back garden, Under a sunny sky. We made mud pies together- My little pal and I. Stained was the little pink apron, Dirty the little White hands, As we stirred, and mixed, and tasted And put the dough in pans. Why do I dream of that garden As the days go creeping by? Why am I longing, longing, For one of those little mud pies? Oh. for the little pink apron, Oh. for the tea set too, For the blessed faith of childhood When friendships seem more true. -Hulda Knake AUTOGRAPH ALBUMS Once a year it strikes us This epidemic great. And once again the albums Circle round at furious rate. The fountain pens have all gone dry, Our brains are most worn out. While, Oh, dear! What shall I write? Is the most prevailing doubt. The teachers really are beseiged, The Seniors' memories fail. And that is all there is to tell About this awful tale. ' -Mary Dryden.
