Oh!! Who gave you that? Aren't those pretty. Such were the expressions used Decemberl5, at the all school party when Santa Claus distributed the ppgg sents among the studans and fac- ulty. Santa Claus evidently thought the students were all good, as everyone received manyr presents. The party started wth many of the students going caroling at the County Home, Mrs. lKeith's Rest Home, Jail, Yeater Hall and East Hall. After returning to the lounge the program began wth Miss Paula Griffith reading 'the poem, Hvrwae The Night tBefore Christmasn and then carols were sung led by Barbara Utt and accompanied by Miss Brooks. Edf lowing the presentation of gifts refreshments were' served by the Student Council. It was agreed, by all, that the party was a great success.

Reverend James Sill gave the invocation and Miss Paula Miffith, a drama teacher last term, introduced the speaker.

The choir .prob vided the musical background for certain scenes in the pantomime. fModern dance forms were used for illustrating the em0tionS and character of the dancers.
