v-4 LEWAIN 1926 gf-iig.---f n NE jg-- - :fs 1 . THE SENIOR BALL Say, Buddy, you should have been to the Senior Ball at N. B. H. S. Gymnasium on February 26. It was something to be remem- bered and the Seniors can be justly proud of such an undertaking and its success. Music was furnished by Dud Seiters orchestra and they have a mean eye for musicfl Yes Sir! There were probably two hundred guests present who could not help but enjoy themselves. The decorations were very effective and were managed by Mary E. Pitney, Senior Class Advisor. They made a dream of a garden out of that building, doing it with Wisteria of lavendar and purple shades. Cherry blossoms of bright pink colors were tucked around in many places. Ferns, Wisteria and blossoms were hung in baskets 011 the walls, giving the finishing touch. The lights were shaded with Japanese lanterns. and with the vari-colored frocks of the dancers. the garden was a riot of rainbow colors. The musicians were placed in a woodland bower cf trees and shrubbery. Floor lamps and davenports added iten's of beauty and comfort for the guests. Punch and wafers were served from a little pagoda by dainty Japanese maids. and the Senior pennant held an honorable place above the booth. The patrons and patronesses were: Mr. and Mrs. L. M. Dimm- itt, Mr. and Mrs. E. S. Hill, and Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Brasen. A THE JUNIOR PROM The Junior Prom was held April 29 at the N. B. H. S. gymnasium and was one of the important features of the year. The decorations consisted of fest-sons of cedar boughs, sword ferns, and the class colors in crimson and white crepe paper. Two crystal balls, with colored spot- lights playing on them, lent color to the scene. An illuminated Wel- come at the end of the hall, confronted the guests when they entered.

5333 'Q-71 L E W A I N l 9 2 6 THE JUNIOR PARTY Some of the members missed out on the best time of the year when they didn't come to the Valentine Party at Mr. and Mrs. Lemon's home. The living room was decorated with crimson and white hearts which incidently are the class colors as well as symbolic of Valen- tine's Day. Guests were received in keeping with the day by being intro- duced to the Queen and Princess of Hearts and given a souvenier photograph. A series of very interesting games of varying types followed in which points were earned for the prize. The jar of hearts brought out considerable variation in guesses at the number of hearts contained, and Sally Mueller proved the best guesser. Refreshments consisted of sandwiches, cake, jello with whipped cream, and punch, the class color scheme being observed in these as well. While doing justice to the food, the points were added up. Dick Carmichael had the highest numbler of points and earned a clever prize for his efforts. The evening ended with song. GO 'l'O SCHOOL NIGHTH On the afternoon of March 5, school was dismissed early, with orders for all who could, to be present in the evening and attend the classes that had been arranged. Parents and friends were in- vited and in this way the parents and people of the town could see the students at work and observe how the classes are conducted. Afterward, assembly was called and entertainment was furnished by the chorus. Mr. Gannon entertained with several readings, which were very much enjoyed, judging by the applause. Last, but not least, Smoky Francis gave an exhibition of the Charleston, which brought down the house. Before the crowd dispersed, refreshments were served from the dining room. Page forty-nine

Now isn't that too bad? Well, you can come along with me and help me drag mine in. The boys were two of the many of the student body that went through the process of gettin! their tree to plant on Clagg'ett's field. The afternoon of April 16 was looked forward to all week as it was declared a holiday from school work, but we were required to plant a tree for the good of our school. Before school time began to collect behind the school house and there were big trees of all species. Between classes the thoughtful students and gave their trees a drink to keep them from becoming too the trees and little went out thirsty. The weather was as nice a spring day as anyone could order and at one o'clock assembly was called where -orders were given to be followed that afternoon, The party was split into two factions. The ones with their trees went with Mr. Lemon to plant them, or to watch the process of them being planted, while the others who were treeless were a clean-up committee whose business was to see that things were straightened and picked up on the campus. It took some time to get all these trees planted and watered to satisfaction. Among those planted were: pine, cottonw-ood, dogwood, vine maple, silver maple, alder, fir and cascara. It was estimated that around forty trees were planted this year, some replacing ones that had died from last year and new ones being put in. Everyone worked with a real school spirit as the announcement was no work-no eats. When the work of the day the Annual were taken consisting Annual Staff, Junior, Sophomore, declamation, debate, tennis, girls' ball groups. ba sketball, boys' basketball, was accomplished group pictures for of the campus picture, student body, and Freshman Class pictures, chorus, and foot- After all this the big time was on deck-the Campus Picnic, All adjourned to Camp Delight where the feast took place. After romping around, some enjoying a cold swim, others playing ball, etc., all were more than ready to do justice to the sandwiches, salad, cake, and lemonade. About six o'clock everybody was ready to go home, feeling happy that Campus Day had been a great success. Page fifty-one
