Reception at Miss Randall’s One Saturday in March the German Classes met together and boarded a car for Alton to spend the afternoon with Miss Randall. A splendid pro- gram was arranged, talent being taken from the different German Classes. German songs were sung and various interesting games were played. A delightful luncheon was served, after which the students departed for their homes. As all the students do not take German, Miss Randall invited the English Classes to visit her, so that all the High School students might have the opportunity to visit her home. The English students were not quite so fortunate as the German classes, as the day was very stormy, but in spite of this there was a splendid crowd and every one had a delightful time. One of the important features of the afternoon was several scenes from Twelfth N’ight, the characters being made up of the English students and coached by Miss Randall. The one thing most enjoyed by all was, after it cleared up they were allowed to pick lilies of the valley from Miss Randall’s yard. The luncheon served was dainty and enjoyed by all. 29

The occasion was a banquet given by the Senior Class in honor of the boys who made our school the first in basket ball in Southern Illinois and third in the State. The merry crowd assembled in the gymnasium, which was decorated in black and red, the High School colors, where games were played and a short program was rendered. They then adjourned to the dining room, which was decorated in the Senior colors, lavender and maize, where a delightful luncheon was served. At a late hour all departed, voting the Seniors royal entertainers. L. P. 28
