As we look back upon our whole career from our present position, it comes to us that we have reason to doubt the soundness of that old saying, happy are they whose annals are simple, for our annals have not been thus, but we have indeed been happy here. We have but one wish — may those to come be as happy. Charlotte Bruns, EmEline Benard, Anna Seaman.

The toys of those far-distant years of our childhood came to life on the afternoon of December twenty- third, when Tunothy Tackhammer ' s shop awakened for the Seniors ' amusement. The constant tin soldiers were remarkably life-like and entirely satisfactory. Probably ' the most important event in our Senior year was our class dance. For weeks beforehand our dreams centred themselves about certain visions of bright colors, filmy gowns and white shirt-bosoms. u,hich dreams became a reahtv in the form of a howling success on the evening of January twenty-fourth, nineteen nineteen. In spite of the excellent music provided by the Jazz Band, advantage was taken ot the kindergarten room which had been especially arranged for - indoor sports, It was comfortably furnished and pictures and pennants adorned the walls. The effect was further enhanced by the subdued lights; while special seats were reserved in the corner of the gymnasium for a crtain exclusive young lady and her partner. Having been duly advertised by a huge placard, these seats were used to the best advantage. When the inevitable bell announced the hour for closing, all were agreed that the e emng had passed only too quickly. In manv ways our career has been an eventful one. X ' arious changes in the school have taken place and we have been ' made to suffer some privations. Near the end of our Junior B term. Miss MacMullan was called from the head of the English department to be the mistress of a home. But somehow fortune favored us and Miss Fennel! was ready to take her place. During our Junior A term Miss Scatchard left us for a similar reason. Then Miss Andem terminating her short but successful career here in a like m anner left us at the end of the term. Roman conqueror in the days of old never received a more thrilling and far- sounding triumph than the Class of 1919 gave to Miss Andem on her last day with us when they bore the blushing bride-to-be in triumph to her room after chapel. A third privation came in our Senior year when Dr. Monroe answered the call of his country and had a share in making it possible to form a just and lasting peace. However, we were permitted to enjoy his instruction for a short time before we departed. During our stay at Normal School Miss Morris, assistant instructor in psychology. Miss Bull in the physical training department. Miss Aagason in the English department, and Miss Childs, who is taking Miss Anderson ' s place in the Art department, have been added to the faculty.
