24 The Hamiltonian EIGHTH GRADE NEWS pHE second class party of the Eighth grade class was held on Thursday, April 30th. Forfeits, spin the cover, and winkem were some games enjoyed. Miss Anderson, Miss Edmondson, and Mr. Smerage chap- eroned, and Mrs. James Ma cDonald and Mrs. Robert Chittick were guests. Dainty refreshments were served by the committee. Everyone had an enjoyable time and we are all looking forward to parties during our freshman year. pAN Monday, October 14, 1935, classes eight and nine had the pleasure of visiting Pioneer Village in Salem to see many antiques such as the John Winthrop House, the old Indian huts, the stocks for public punishment, and many other inter- esting sights. Upon returning, we passed Salem Harbor where the Arhella was an- chored, but it was our misfortune that they were repairing it, so we could not go aboard. Transportation was furnished by the school buses.
