School Notes t The Blue and White Board is a great institution. The editor gets the blame, the business manager the experience, and the printer the money-if there is any. Everyone was grieved when they heard of Mr. Tilleyls resignation, but all of us Wish him success as a lawyer. We Welcome Mr. Dummer to Hope Street High School as one of us. The school was pleasantly surprised one Tuesday morning by an entertainment given by the Schumann Trio and Miss Glynes. WVe hope that We shall be surprised often. '-T90 8

The greatest step forward has been made this year when the debt was reduced from 34,000 to nothing. A friend who had given 3100 promised 951,000 on the condition that the rest of the debt be collected by January first, and it is through the never-tiring Work of Mr. Dennis that the amount Was raised. The next proposition is the track Plans have been made and it was found that a quarter-mile track could be built on the field. Along With the plans for the track are more plans. Plans to build a hockey rink, plans for beautifying the field with trees and Well kept lawn, plans for sanitary buildings, and still more plans to make the Hope Street High School Athletic Field the best school Held Within miles. So Juniors, Sophomores, Freshmen, and those to come, you see that there is still a place for loyalty. The annual athletic play was voted by all to be the funniest and most successful play ever given at Hope. The title was Me an' Otis. Those who took part Were: Dick Davis, a student at Hale college, fond of football and girls. George YV. Waterman. Byron Makepeace Thornton, his room-mate, not fond of football and girls. Frederick A. Ballou, Jr. Betty Tewksbury, Otis' daughter . . . . Elizabeth H. Walker. Florence Follet, Betty's city friend . . . . Elizabeth J. Aldrich. Sophronia Ruggles, F lorenee's maiden aunt . . , Doris Field. Rosilla Tewksbury of' Perkinsville, Wife of Otis . Vera Stockard. Otis Tewksbury of Perkinsville, Betty's father . . H. Russell Burbank. Sam Scullyan, TeWksbury's hired man ..., George H. Pickering. Reginald Thomas, A young man of fashion . . Russell M. WVilson. Mary Cooper, a friend ........ Emma E. Nye. Betty Tewksbury, While visiting Florence in the city, is invited to visit her friend, Dick Davis, at college, and Witness a great football game. Betty and Florence come, chaperoned by Miss Ruggles. They are entertained by Dick's room-mate While Dick takes part in the game. Dick thinks Betty's friend charming, and before the first act ends, his room-mate acknowledges that he thinks Betty quite interesting. In the second act, Florence is visiting Betty, in the country. Dick and his friend are also in the country, and Dick Writes to Florence to meet him at a certain place, While Byron does the same thing in regards to Betty, thinking that he can deceive Dick. All four meet, and many funny incidents occur. In the fourth act, the Tewksburys have moved to the city, and on this particular night are holding a reception. Mr. and Mrs. Tewksbury caused a great deal of amuse- ment in their evening dress, and then there is a dance and everybody lives happily ever after. Waterman and Ballon carried out their parts remarkably Well as did Misses Walker and Aldrich. Miss Field made a capital chaperone, and Miss Stockard was an excellent head of the family. Burbank and Pickering furnished the amusement, keeping the audience laughing while they were on the stage. Although Miss Nye and Wilson took only minor parts, each one appeared to advantage. The committee of arrangements was Frederick A. Ballou, Jr., H. Russell Burbank, and Harry A. Carroll. Great credit is due Miss Slack for the undisputed success of our athletic play. 10
