Harry Davis was elected president, Beatrice Couch, vice- president, Gertrude Hoffman, secretary, and Walter Loree, treasurer. The class of 1916 entertained the class of 1919 near the close of the term. That year the poor Freshies were subject to hours entirely out of the ordinaryf iClasses began at eleven o'clock and were dis- missed at three-thirty, allowing twenty minutes for lunch. . At the beginning of the Sophomore year, Harry Davis was elected president, Gertrude Hoffman, vice-president, Mildred Niper, secre- tary, and Harold Karn, trea urer. The Juniors and Sophomores com- bined forces and entertaine the Seniors near the end of the second term. The class was well representedin the Junior Industrial Army. In the Junior year, Harry Davis was again elected president, Beatrice Couch, vice-president, Gertrude Hoffman, secretary, and Harold Karn, treasurer. Near the middle of the term the Juniors and Sophomores entertained the Senior Class. The class was againwell represented in the Junior Industrial Army which was organized during the month of April. 'I The class of 1919 began its high school career in the year of 1915, ' The class came together early in the Senior year and had an elec- tion of officers. Harry Davis was elected president for the fourth time, Louise Bockoven, vice-president, Gertrude Hoffman, secretary, and Harold Karn, treasurer. The class immediately began to revive and started plans for a class dance. The dance was in December and was a great success. In February, Green Stockings was decided upon as the class play and rehearsals were started immediately. It proved a great success and was commended by all. A goodly number of the class purchased class banners 'which were maroon with gold letters. In April the Juniors condescended to ask the Seniors to a dance in the gymnasium. This affair was enjoyed by all. The class was well represented in athletics. Three of the boys were members of the first high school team, and two of the girls were members of the girls' team. A Senior class team for boys and one for girls were organized and played a good many games. The class has shown by their spirit throughout the year that they lived up to their motto, Deeds Not Words.

H. Davis, as I was reading 'Carmen Glanville'sA Collinsville Breezef, my eye fell upon these startling headlines: Sarah Bohm Swims the Atlantic and is VVelcomed at Brest by hfliss J ulyann Dalglish who is studying art in Paris. Turning to the personal column I saw that Miss' Emily Rood, the belle of suburban society, had enter- tained at her home, Skunks lVIisery,,' a few of her friends. Among the names were those of Mme. Virginia Dickinson, the Fifth Avenue modiste, Marian Moodey, the President of the VVomen's Land Army, Mme. Marjorie Coursen, the spiritualist, Miss Beatrice Cline, the walk- ing agent for O'Sullivan's Rubber Heels, and Josephine Burnett, the President oaf the New Jersey Gigglers' Association. I also happened to see an advertisement of the Mendham-Morristown Transportation Company, Frank Apgar, proprietor. 'Q 1 When I arrived in Washington, I was driven to the New VVillard Hotel which had just come under the management of Charles Toms. VVhen I went to register Frances Luby offered me the pen. As I turned I met Albert Young, who was in VVashington to preside over the annual convention of the Sons of Rest. - That evening I inquired what the attrs ctions were at the various theatres and on learning that Elizabeth Holly with her famous jazz orchestra made up of Pauline and Ruth Udall and Helen Eichlin was giving a series of interpretative dances at the Empire Burlesque Theatre and that at the same place were Anna Day and Marie Brod- erick in their side-splitting impersonations of Mutt and Jeff, I decided that this entertainment would furnish the most amusement, although at the National Theatre, John Reed was presenting Miss Frances Nappin in Green Stockings, and at the Garrick Theatre, Mlle. Mae Sutton was giving a series of aesthetic dances. . The next night I went to the inaugural ball. As I entered, Gen- eral Lewis Thompson, was driven up to the door by his chauffeur, John Eccles. At the ball I saw Admiral John Gaty with his brother the famous physicist, Lewis Gaty, Senator Harold Karn, the Honorable Roland Clark, theinfant champion of the Republican Party, Secretary of Agriculture Roland Chamberlain, Griffith Vaughan, the leader of the Prohibition Party, Nelson Schaenen, the director-general of gov- ernment-owned railroads, Cornelia Pierson, the famous naturalist, Ali- son Guild, the first woman senator, and Clara Beckwith, who had been sent to Washington by the New York Times especially to report the ball. The airship which I took to New York was driven by Miss Louise Bockoven, and as I was in a great hurrv to get back to my office, I 3 ., ummmguuauuilHMihai:immmumiimluiiliutlmninuliiliulnlnullumnuimsiwlnslnlmn1l1l'nnrnllmiilx31nllMillxnmnlx1'Mwlxv3ulhilnihlnl
