office in arnival-Land C4 ELLO, Alice, would you like to go to the carnival up at North Dallas to- nightil' Oh, Billy, I'd love itl I have always wanted to go to a real carnival. live heard they are so excitingl And so somewhat later, Alice and her friend were hurrying up the steps of a great building where glorious surprises and happy thrills awaited them. AS Soon as they reached the main corridor, they were besieged by numerous pirates selling confetti. Alice scattered the brightly colored paper down the hall to a gypsy camp over-run by brilliantly clothed, fascinating, dusky gypsies and containing a fortune-teller's booth. Here she waited her turn with hated breath. At last her turn came, and with wildly heating heart, she pushed aside the many- colored curtain and entered. She was in the fortune-teller's stall for quite awhile. VVhen finally she emerged, Billy asked her how she liked her fortune. lVIarvelousl she answered with shining eyes. And that was all the answer Billy got. Next she went to the booth Where a magic man was performing miraculous feats before a spell-bound audience. From here she proceeded down the hall to the lish- pond and then to the hot-dogn stand. After this she watched Billy at the shooting gallery. And now in the gymnasium the orchestra was calling, and the two strolled in to dance. The music was fine, but after five straight dances our Wanderers were slightly tired and warm, so they went to rest in an adorable Japanese Tea-room. Later, holding ice-cream sandwiches in one hand and candy in the other, Alice was lured into the i'House of a Thousand Wondersn. It was indeed wonderful, as could be seen by the smiles of all who came out. 5 Alice and Billy were no exceptions, as they enjoyed it greatly. Billy, glancing at his watch, found it to be twelve o'clock, and Alice with a sigh, told him they must go, as she had promised to be home at that time. Billy, l surely thank you for taking me to that North Dallas carnival. I have had the most wonderful evening everl' she said as he took her to her door. 'KGood- night. If a girl like Alice who has been to Wtiiitlerlalid and through the looking-glass could appreciate the carnival, it must have been some carnivall And I'll bet Billy made a much more charming escort than a white rabbit, too. i THE SENIOR DANCE As the Viking goes to press we find the seniors all looking forward to their Senior Prom to be given the night of April 20 at Glen-Haven Country Club. An excellent orchestra has been chosen and the plans are those of a wonderfully success- ful dance. It is our belief that this prom will be the l'11OSt enjoyable affair ever put on by a senior class of North Dallas.
