tEI)t Senior Snformal One day just as the classes were changing, a little, piping voice was distinctly heard asking some of the senior boys (who were standing around looking wise) whether or not they knew how to dance. They looked down and saw their old friends, Bessie Hafemister and Julia Creer. The boys informed the young ladies that they were not familiar with the terpsichorean art. Upon this, the chief executors walked away with looks of discouragement. This, however, was the beginning of the senior party, which took place, Wednesday evening, December twenty-second, 1909. At about six P. M. of that all important day, the first comers arrived before the “Temple of Knowledge” and at six-thirty all repaired to the dining room where they had supper. After this enjoyable feast extemporaneous speeches were given by our principal, Mr. Weimer, and several other members of the faculty. At this time our “Basement Bat” informed us that the gymnasium doors were open and thither we went. The “gym” had been previously decorated in the class colors and school pennants in honor of the occasion. Here games were played for some time and as a reward for brilliant playing prizes were given. To complete the evening’s enjoyment the seniors then spent a short time in dancing. But all too soon the time for the informal to close arrived. Reluctantly the happy company disbanded, all wending their way homeward, each agreeing that he had had a good time, and congratulating the executive committee on the success of the first senior party. 30
