78 THE LANTERN I had received an invitation from Ruth Blotz to attend a banquet she was giving in honor of Raymond Wenikatys and Fred Fredericks, who were leaving on an exploration trip to the North Pole. Ruth was a successful business woman who was widely known. At the banquet were several notable personages, among them Louise Weidenhoeft, artist, Anna Fox, President of a Woman's Welfare Club, Grace Carlson, mayor of the fairy city, Bernice Kroger, owner of the city's only beauty shopg and Elizabeth Fischer, prominent in the social world. I returned home tired and glad to retire after my full day. On the ensuing morning my guide called for me again and we went for a stroll through a park. We found Francis johnson and Francis Gates in charge of a flower conservatory. On the way to our car we passed a lingerie shop, where we saw Lucille Schultz, Rose Kuzma and Lorraine Krause in charge of the sales. I visited the court house and found Ella Lauben, Anna Wichbrod and Roslyn Rose to he very successful police women. In the evening, wishing to see more of this interesting little city, I took a moonlight excursion. Strange to say, the boat was completely under the management of very competent women. Evelyn Dierdortf was captain, Barbara Kielezynski steward, Lucille Gold- enstein and Betty Jurica, and Lillian Johnson were other officers. 'llhe boat took me to a shore where there seemed to be great excitement. Harriet Dmoch had broken her finger while playing the piano for a group of enthusiastic dancers. From this scene of excitement, I went to a cafeteria to dine. I met Alice Steinberg, who told me of her success in the motion picture world. With her were Louise VVegner and Dorothy Smith, women of influence in the politica. field. Lucy Klein and Ethel Forbes entertained by singing two very beau- tiful duets. Aw l was afterward to learn, this day of recreation was my last, for although I retired in the hotel room that I occupied in that city, I awoke to find myself back in Spain. Perhaps it was just a dream. Who knows? But at any rate, it was surely a pleasant one. . Margaret Bowles.

292' THE LANTERN Glass Zfroplzecy After a long and somewhat tedious voyage on the Atlantic, I reached my destination, the land of dreams and romance-Spain. I had planned this voyage for the sole purpose of attending an exhibition of miniature schools, among which our Alma Mater, Hibbard, was displayed. My plans were, however, interrupted, for one day after I had seen the wonderful exhibition and was making arrangements to return to America, I was accosted by an odd-looking old woman who said, My dear, you have not forgotten to cherish your Alma Mater, she has not forgotten you and has asked me to show you what will follow to illustrate her appreciation of your thoughts of her. Suddenly she passed from my vision and I awoke in a large, grass-carpeted field and once more I saw this creature before me. She said nothing but beckoned me to follow. After walking a short distance, I sighted two immense gates which glittered as the sun threw its rays upon them. Still my guardian did not speak, but as I entered the gates she blew a whistle fit sounded just like Miss Hollenbergefsj and the gates were Hung open by Esther Hoffen, the guard of the city. She smiled sweetly and introduced Raymond Fiegal, the guide, who took me to a very exclusive hotel owned by Albin VVieser. XVhile inspecting the hotel I noticed two heads fvery closely togethery just above the top of a davenport. These heads belonged to Dorothy Sull-ten and Thorwald Anderson, honey-moonersl I signed my name to the register where I noticed that of Violet Hanselman also inscribed. Our guide politely informed me that Violet had just arrived and Margaret Christensen had already started a dancing studio where she taught the Charleston. That evening I went to an opera where Anna Gerts led the casz. She was now Europe's greatest prima donna. After the opera I went to a fashionable restaurant where Grace Norely was the hostess. She received me warmly and insisted upon my spending the night with her. She showed me her elaborate home. NVhile I was in the library, I picked up a book entitled The Value of Mock Trials, written by Natalie Terlikowski. Next, she showed me her wardrobe which had 'been designed by Gladys Christiansen and Ellen Trein. I left Grace in the morning and went to the Art Institute where I saw a very wonderful painting by Ida Bollinger. On the afternoon of that day I attended a drama given by a company of renowned actors. The title of it was They Conquer Who Believe They Can.

THE LANTERN 79 GRACE BODINE, President A better choice for president we could not have made. Popular, sweet, carefree and gay. She gained well-merited popularity thru the excellent service she rendered to the school and students serving as captain of the Hall Guards for two semesters. Grace has also served most gracefully as one of the oflicers of Mayfair Student Council. Our teachers are as unanimous as we are in the opinion that Grace deserves her place as first among the best. MARVIN NEss, Vice-President He is our vice-president and a good one, too. This youth is quiet, and good-looking, also a shark in Civics. You may always depend on Marvin, De- cause anything he starts, he always finishes. LUCILLE STEINBRINK, Secretary Lucille is a stately maid, tall, fair and slender, industrious, ambitious, and humorous. Her sweet disposition is one of her most admirable assets ,and her efliciency is highly commendable. BERNICE HEYNE, Treasurer We have found Bernice a capable treasurer. She is pretty and sweet, very studious, always deeply interested in and busy with her homework. By her faithful service and her fine loyalty to Mayfair's high ideals, she has won the respect of all her acquaintances. MILDRED PETTERSON, Class Historian We elected Mildred as Class Historian. She is a girl who is always willing to help generously and to co-operate in every project for the good of her class and her school. Our historian is surprisingly full of pep and remarkably pretty, even among the many other pretty girls of Mayfair. EDNA OSBERG, Class Prophet. Edna is a diligent worker whose winning smile and charming personality have won her many friends. If our future were truly in her hands we would all surely be happy.
