The Bazaar The Fourth Annual Bazaar of the school was held on March 19. and what a success it was! I'nrivalcd by any of the preceding, yielding a profit of $262.55, remarkable! This success was due mainly to the efforts of our able manager, Fred Me Elroy. but the spirit of the school in general was to l e admired. The greatest interest was shown by all and the great crowd of Alumni and friends that attended were well rewarded for their visit. Historical Essays As usual the Seniors competed in an Historical Essay Contest for two prizes offered by the George Taylor Chapter of the H. A. R. The faculty judges, who chose the best six essays from the contesting number, were Messrs. Mcllhaney, I'hler and Mitman. These worthy judges decided upon Misses R. Edna Godley, Beatrice Emory, Emily Young, Florence YYoodring. Myrtle Ackerman and Mr. Russell K. Laros as the successful contestants in the pre- liminaries. After the essays had bec-11 in the hands of the judges. Dr. 15. Rush Field, Mr. H. D. Maxwell and Mr. Magee, the contest was held on the afternoon of May 13, at 3 o'clock. The essays were all very fine, and as Dr. Field said in rendering the decision of the judges: Although they all were excellent and there was little to choose between them, yet there is always one just a shade better than the rest. This one was Miss Emory's, for which she received first prize. The second prize was awarded to Mr. Laros, probably out of sympathy, since he was the only young man in the contest. Peace Day On the morning of May 18. Peace Day, Rev. Ford of the Second Street Methodist Church, gave the school a very fine address on the appropriate topic. His talk was illuminated by many brilliant figures, which aided in preserving interest and attention. We all profited greatly by his ideas and suggestions and the school as a whole thanked him heartily for the benefit derived from his address on The Hague Peace Conference. 23
