Page Ninety-four SOCIAL ACTIVITIES The social life of the institution has come into great prominence during our last year. The privileges granted have been many and appreciated. Tuesday and Friday evenings we've been permitted to entertain. Tuesday has developed into quite THE one night in the week. Such an orchestra, and-well, who wouldn't be proud of them? They are our doctors! There have been several benefit dances, given by the Senior group. Between the excitement of choosing escorts and planning the dance, these events have inf volved every member of the class. Interest was high, and, even to those few who did not attend, those nights were important. Shadowed lights at breakfast, the day before, warned everyone that the time was short before the coming night. Although we have had no formal gathering of our class, so far, there was a great representation at the Alumnae Dance. Through the courtesy of the adminisf trating staff, many more activities have been tended the Seniors. We take this opportunity of saying Thank You.

F EASTS AND SPREADS To each section of our class there were big moments, surprisingly commonplace to the older observer, which served to enliven dormitory life to such an interesting strata that they are often whispered about, and ref whispered among ourselves. Miss Wilson guided the home sick subfjuniors, on Christmas Eve at Walnut Street. The party was gay, and if the spirit reminded one of home everyone did their best to uput it over for the other fellow, who might feel worse than he. But parties were not always so carefully supervised. The January group's get acquainted parties started with a group of strangers, who talked of divergent ways of obtaining food, as well as colloquial dancing and today we find one of our most closely bound groups of loyal friends. The initiation of the Walnut Street girls to Mat dorms may be a thing of the past but say-did it start off those happy days with a bang. And was there any competition for the prettiest trees in December? Those little parties in the late evening. Myths? Then how did that cake tin roll down all those stairs-Was it a dream? Here at the nurses' home we've attempted to be dig' nified-but whispered Good nights in the middle of rounds often cost two hours. There's not a -moment most of us wouldn't like to recall. The good natured, cleanf cut fun has done much to improve and maintain morale. T -5 s Pm! Page Nmetx -six
