x ' as A 5 1:1-,...:-xA.:-v.,1 ' 1 .f JL, gi THE IDES OF MARCH The Freshies gave a splendid St. Patrick party the 17th of March. Decorations were carried out in green and white. Ferns were placed around the room. Green and white colors were worked out in the re- freshments as well as decorations. Games and dancing were features of the entertainment. We were very well assisted by the following faculty members: Mrs. Fleming, Miss Keate, Miss Ware, Mr. Gardner, Mr. Russon, Mr. and Mrs. Parkinson and Miss Hartley. THE CHRISTMAS TREE PARTY The Seniors were the honored guests at a Sophomore Christmas party, December 22, 1919. It proved very enjoyable and the Sophomore entertainment committees' fears were soon abated when the 'dignified Seniors entered into the spirit of the affair. We don 't know what caused it, probably the mistletoe. The Senior boys still remember it. The center of attraction was a large Christmas tree, a real one, too, all gayly decorated and lighted, and gifts for everyone. Don 't you re- member? The Seniors do. After receiving their toys the jolly crowd retired to the gymnasium, where games and dancing were indulged in. Oh, boy! Did you say Hula, hula? Ask Miss VVare. Lastly-Eats. Those Sophs certainly are there with the eats. Too bad for the fellows that were training. MARCH NINETEEN March 19 proved the date of one of our most splendid parties, and members of the class will readily recall the party for a long time to come. Our class gathered in the gymnasium on the afternoon of March 19 for a few hours of frolic. In the far corner of the gym was a booth, artisti- cally decorated in green and white, our class colors, where doughnuts and punch were served. A splendid program, followed by games and dancing, furnished the entertainment for the rest of the afternoon. Every seventh grader who was there will never forget the games, especially the suit-case race. We are sorry, but we blush even yet when we think of it, boys. A HALLOWEEN PARTY Halloween night found the eighth grade revellers out in the cold. Maybe Dick was afraid to venture forth that night. However, he did turn up and let them in the gym building. As soon as We got warm our good spirit became livened and we re- tired to the gym to participate in games and dancing. Girls in Halloween caps and aprons served us delicious sherbet and cake.

Surely this party will go down in the history of the Senior class, for who could forget the hit that Mr. Gardner made when he donned the neat and nifty fudge apron, or the boys' display of their culinary art. Only one balked when he was tenderly asked to Wash the dishes, but the girls said he was justified in doing so. Woiidei' who it was and why? Well, We Won't tell on you, ah-Mr.-excuse meg no, we Won't tell. It was whispered about that some of the Seniors had severe pains the next day, but cheer up, girls, let 's not believe it was the cooking that did it, oh, no, it was just the fact that they couldn't have a dinner party like this one every day. JUNIOR PROM Our first Annual Junior Prom was a decided success. It was the biggest social event of the season. The music Was peppery and jazzy, and added life to the event. The decorations were carried out in red and white, the Junior class colors. From the center of the ceiling an umbrella of red and White design was hung, covering the orchestra, which was enclosed in a similar umbrella surrounded by palms and ferns and draped with red and white streamers. The J uniors' booth was carried out in the scheme of a Dutch Wind- mill. decorated with Dutch blue and white. Punch was served. The Seniors' booth was very attractive, the scheme representing a summer tea garden. Decorations were carried out in green, and climbing morning glories. Japanese lanterns were hung from the roof. Mints in the class colors of bluc and gold were served. An Oriental booth offered great attractions and the Sophomore-s deserve credit for such an original idea. The Freshmen worked out a booth in green and white. Party sticks were served. The Alumni had an original booth. A large A, decorated in blue and white. Pop corn balls were served by two little coeds.

J The side we were working on sloped toward the river and was bare of trees and so exceedingly muddy. I was driving stakes when I real- ized that it was growing dark. I looked at my watch and found it was half-past four. Let's call it a day, Bill, I said as I glanced at the sky, which was a muddy color and promised snow. Bill answered without raising his head. Only got a little more to do, and besides, it 's not as muddy on the other side of the river. ' An instant later a long, solitary howl sounded off to our right. Bill, sweat- covered and muddy, looked up. I'm ready to go any time, said he, that fellow sounds hungry to me. . That long howl that carries so far and makes the mountaineer glad to be close to his fireside, had made us both freeze in our boots. We picked up our instruments and started up the stream to the bridge. By this time a dozen howls had sounded to the right and be- hind, which informed us that a good-sized pack was gathering. HThose wolves are out for blood tonight, I heard Bill whisper under his breath. Yes, and we are the blood, I returned with a quiver of excitement in my voice. Don't worry, said Bill, Uthey're half a mile back and not coming yet. Despite our anxiety to hurry, it was impossible to travel faster than a walk, because of the thick mud on our boots. I heard Bill cuss under his breath as he stumbled over a hidden stump. Let's throw our tripods up on this bank. Yes, and have them stolen by some hobo Indians tomorrow, Re- turned Bill. c Indians or no Indians, I declared as I tossed my tripod up on the bank, I'm going into camp light. We could tell by the howls all coming from one place that the wolves had packed and had now picked our scent. By this time Bill was S .a.,.,.- Hmmm.
