(Eanmrnl The Carnival, which was initiated in 1921 and has since become an annual event, was given in the High School’s Gym and Auditorium in the early part of the school year, listed as the first big event of the High School. The gymnasium was similar to a circus, filled with booths and tents of all descriptions decked out with bunting of every color in the rain- bow. A great deal of ingenuity was used in arranging the booths and “stunts.” After an hour had been pleasantly spent in the gymnasium the crowd was admitted into the auditorium, where they were entertained for an hour by “stunts” performed by the various classes. The Freshmen, proud of the fact that they had mastered the alpha- bet at last, attempted to pass their knowledge on to someone else by representing the letters on the stage; the Sophomores impersonated va- rious advertisements seen in every-day life; the Juniors brought forth the “Family Album,” and the Seniors gave an exhibition of the talent in the class in so far as singing, dancing, and flirting is concerned. Senior Jirnm The Senior Prom, the second of its kind, was given in April in the High School auditorium and pronounced a grand success. A goodly number attended and everyone appeared to be having a good time. Excellent music was furnished by the Millard-Osborne orchestra. Danc- ing began at 8 and lasted until midnight. Pljijfiiral iEituratian The physical training classes are combining work and play to de- velop stronger and healthier bodies. Some days are spent in trapeze work and others in playing games. The girls have quite a notable base- ball team in practice and scheduled some games between the classes. Also some of the girls have been practicing running and jumping and will soon be prepared to compete with the boys.
