The house was attractively decorated in the holiday colors with holly, mistletoe and balloons. in the spacious dining room was a brilliantly lighted Xmas tree heavily loaded with presents for all. The music was furnished by the Victrola and the Crazy S nging Orchestra. Delightful refreshments of tea, sand- wiches, stuffed dates and home-made cindy were served with a sprig of holly with berries on each plate. F 001' BALL November 4, 1921, marks an event of especial importance , as it was the cele- bration of our sixth foot ball victory.

FOOT BALL BOYS BANQUETED Last Saturday evening the dining room of the Conroe High school was a fitting scene for the well deserved send off of this foot ball season. The Senior girls, assisted by a number of Juniors and chaperoned by Mrs. W. S, Turney, gave a banquet for the foot ball team and had as other guests Mr. A. W. Runyan, the big bossg W. P. McComb, coach, Rev. A, T. Walker, chaplain, Dr. O. M. Tinsley, physician, Mrs. Faifer and Miss Everett, Business Manager Mahaffey being unable to attend. The meal itself was a delight just to look at, so artistical- ly were the tables laid. To partake of it was to realize how well the meal was prepared, how charmingly it was ser- ved, and how capable are the girls of Conroe High School. The chicken and dressing with cream- ed potatoes and English peas, cranberry sauce, olives, and hot biscuit, made every foot ball boy present realize the truth of the old saying concerning the way to a man's heart , while the candle salad which looked almost too good to be true, caused quite an argument as to just which girl made it, each boy feeling sure that he knew who deserved the honor. After dessert course came coffee and mints. By this time everyone was feeling en- tirely too good to keep quiet, so the girls were asked in and everybody was in- formally at home while general speech making took place. The first speech, by Coach McComb, expressed much pleas- ure in the season's victories, in the spirit of the players, and appreciation of the charming entertainment of the girls. Then came Mr. Runyan, and knowing him to be long on speech making great things were expected from him. And no one was disappointed, for so highly did he compliment the girls and so great was his praise of the boys that it seemed there was nothing left to say until Dr. Tinsley and Bro. Walker proved the con- trary. Then when Jake Alley and Guy James were heard from the whole party was feeling like a big family. Every football man from the captain to Gunga Din, the mascot, expressed his pleasure in the past foot ball season and the loyalty of the girls who have shown in more than one way that the favorite foot ball song was sun straight from their hearts, We Love Nobody But You . The girls came very near having the proverbial last word and spoke with genuine enthusiasm of the grand old team of 21. Mr. Anderson left his work and came in and made a talk that made everyone feel how incomplete the whole evening would have been had he not appeared on the scene just when he did. Then the girls returned to the kitchen while the boys remained to elect a cap- tain for next season. This was scarcely done when a lusty fifteen rahs and dishes, dishes, dishes! came from the kitchen. This was answered by the boys with wash em, wash em, wash em! Then fifteen more and help9 help, help! from the girls brought a grand rush of boys into the kitchen and aprons were on in a jiffy. But they were conducted to the adjoining room where the Victrola was played and the star performers fwho won't allow us to use their narnesl did their best jigs for the enjoyment of all, The dishes, and there must have been a million, were done to the time and tune of yells and foot ball songs given by the boys and girls in turn. The girls de- clared they had never had so much fun washing dishes and the boys said they never saw them done so quickly, while everyone had the best time of the entire season. BON FIRES The foot ball boys, in order to have a little fun, built a bon fire Wednesday night at Lewis Park. The fire alarm was sounded and quite a number of people went out to see the fire but when they arrived saw Bryan burning in effigy and the boys practicing with a white foot- ball.
