Senior Class Events ’—{Continued) The Bazaar The Fifth Annual Bazaar was held in the High School Auditorium March 18, 1911. Each Bazaar has sur- passed the one before it and 1911 followed the established precedents. The grand total of the profits was $275.37, but there can be no summing up of the fun and good time every person had who was present. Peace Day Peace Day was observed in High School on the morning of May 18th. Mr. George R. Miller, Sr., was the speaker and made a splendid address. He spoke on the relation of education to the Peace movement and placed spec- ial emphasis upon what we. as individuals, could do to hasten the era of Universal Peace. 23
