Instead of the usual J unior-Senior banquet, this year the class of '19 has wisely decided to give a six o'clock luncheon which will take the form of the usual banquet as to center- tainment and toast program, but at the same time be more in keeping with the war times. - We do not know what the special features are. That is a deep, dark secret. Because of the mysterious looking pack- ages that are being taken to and from the Domestic Science rooms by the Juniors and because of the whispering tha-t always ceases whenever a Senior approaches. We look for- ward to something unusual for the evening's entertainment. The Juniors are noted for doing things right, so we know this feature of their high school activities will in every way measure up to their former high standards. The luncheon will be held May 10th, at the Y, The toast program will be as follows: Pictures of Memory. Toastmaster L ...,..............................,....,,..........

'rum M. P. H. s. TATTLER 21 A Hiking Club has been formed in connection with the Y. W. C. A. The girls who walk seventy-five miles will re- ceive letters for their sweaters. They have shown much in- terest in this. The girls have also adopted a French war orphan and in this way are trying to do their bit for the war. We are sure the Y. W. C. A. is a permanent organi- zation for our High School. ....,1.-l. SOCIAL THE JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET, 191-7. It has become a custom for the junior class of Mt. Pleas- ant High School to give a banquet for the Seniors. There- fore on Friday evening, May 25th, the two classes and the High School faculty gathered at the Y. M. C. A. to enjoy the banquet which had been prepared by the Juniors. Although there had been much contention between the two classes over colors and party intrusions, all were willing to forget their past injuries and join in having a pleasant evening. This banquet really marked a climax in the events of the year, for here the two classes met on equal ground and a feeling of peace and friendship was established be- tween them. V The large banquet room of the Y was fittingly deco- rated in the Senior colors, pink and green. Ferns, foliage and sweet peas adorned the tables. A huge rainbow hung on the north wall, the significance of which was in keeping with the toast program. At eight o'clock all were seated. One feature which tended to relieve the formality of the occasion was the singing of the High' School song. . For it's always fair weather, When school fellows get together. Between courses the classes sang songs to each other. The menu was as follows: S Strawberries Veal with Mushrooms New Potatoes Peas on Rosettes Orange Ice Rose Radishes ....s.fQea - I

THE M. I'. II. S. TATTLER 23 SENIOR STUNT. One of the great events of our Senior Year was the Senior Stunt, which was held at the High School building April 13th. Only one week was given us in which to work out our ideas for the affair. Each one did his share of the work. Not one tried to shirk and because of the co-opera- tion of the faculty and class, everything went off like clock work. The entire school building had been transformed into a place of amusement, the assembly being used for the main stunt. The main stunt was divided into three parts: first, an operettag second, a minstrel showy and last, a tableau. The main fioor down stairs gave the appearance of the midway at a county fair. Various side shows had been planned and a jazz band patrolled the street to keep order. Perhaps the room that attracted the most attention was the Domestic Science room, which was converted into a mess tent where sandwiches and Ades were sold. The other sideshows onthe midway were: The Hawaiian. Girls, The Doll Shop, Polly's Predicament, Franco the Ma- gician, Our Own Movies and Shoot the Kaiser. 1 HONORARY ' This page is dedicated to those students who have distinguish- ed themselves along any one line during their four years high school course.
