The different work to be done was in charge of the girls of the four classes. All Seniors were on the menu committee. The Iuniors ar- ranged the tables in a very pretty manner and took charge of all things con- nected with the serving of the banquet. The Sopho- mores decorated the gymnas- ium very beautifully in pink and white. The Freshmen girls couldn't be excluded so they were all on the dishwashing committee. Chairmen were chosen by the president of the club, Minnie Kelley, to take charge of the different groups. They were: Seniors -- Virginia Challstrom. luniors -- lean Bartlett. Sophomores -- Doris Mellander. Freshmen -- Beverly Hanlin. The group assembled early in the evening and a good time was had by all until adjournment.

The Seniors were officially welcomed into the ranks of the Alumni Association of the Mount Iewett High School.

As the year ebbed slowly by, it became more and more distinct. Finally, on May 19, it arrived, with the Iuniors and Seniors anxiously awaiting 8:00 o'clock. Shortly after eight, everyone had assembled, ready for a good time-- and a good time was had. The gym was attractively decorated in the colors of the two classes: red and white, and purple and gold. A delightfully, entertaining program was presented by the Iuniors. A very appetizing lunch was served. The rest of the evening was spent in dancing. At twelve o'clock we went home, tired but happy and contented. SENIOR FAREWELL A Senior Farewell Party was held for the Senior members of the Girl Reserves in the spring in the gymnasium. The place was prettily decorated and lunch was served. All the Senior Girl Reserves were guests of the lower class members of the club. The loss of these Senior members will be noticed next year but there are many others willing to take their places and help to improve and make the organization a success. -E. M. M. THE CICERONIAN CIRCLE An advanced Latin Class was again formed this year in which the speeches of Cicero were studied. There were three Iuniors: Minnie Kelley, Doris Iohnson, and Francena Malmroseg and five Seniors: Roxie Sloppy, Harriet Kymer, Lenora Billitier, Viola Millard and Venus Dane. The class was instructed by Mrs, Lester I. Ordiway. The name Ciceronian comes from the name of Marcus Tullius Cicero. Cicero was a famous orator of Rome, who laid bare the conspiracy of Cataline. He lived from 106 B. C. to 43 B. C. On December 17, 1931, the Ciceronian Circle was entertained at a Satur- nalian Party at the home of Mrs. Clarence Okerlund, sister of Viola Millard. At a late hour the lunch of the old Romans, fruit and nuts, was served. Gifts were exchanged and games were played. Mrs. Ordiway entertained the Ciceronian Circle at her home to a candy party. Everyone made candy, and at a late hour a lunch was served. Every- one reported a very good time. -V. D. V32 5 I 55? I ' Forty Four 'L' f ' I if . ,
