60 THE TARGET Carnival It is needless to say the Eighth Annual Carnival was a success. It Would have been hard for it to be otherwise. Much of the credit, however, for this year's event was due to the Director General and the Business Man- ager, both of Whom vvere untiring in their efforts to make the 4'shoW a good one. Every seat was sold considerably in advance and the Athletic Asso- ciation Treasury has profited accordingly. C 3I'1'1iV3,l OHTCCFS Director General, SERGT. Z. WARD Musical Director, MR. G. A.

62 THE TARGET Officers' Club Hop THIS important social function took place on schedule time, December 9. Carpenters and painters had been busy in the drill hall for some days previous to the occasion, and had left it in such a greatly improved condi- tion that the work of decorating was comparatively easy. Suspended from the ceiling were festoons of red and blue bunting, relieved at regular inter- vals by the national colors. The white arches were trimmed with sprays of holly, and on the side walls were wreaths and artistically arranged sabres and rifles. The electrician had been busy, too, and from arches and side walls gleamed rows of electric lights. The decorations, on the whole, were simple, but massive and strikingly effective. The hop proper was initiated by the grand march, in which seventy- iive or more couples joined, after which followed an evening of rare pleasure. The usual regrets were expressed when tattoo sounded, good- nights were said, and the Officers' Club Hop had passed into history. Students' Informal ' An informal dance, promoted by the older students of the academy, was given on Saturday evening, January 28. Although quiet and unos- tentatious, the affair was greatly enjoyed by all who took part in it. ,Halloween a La Carte CKWHOOPI Heap big Injun chief no-like pale face. Stop thet!

Tunk! Put on the air and give her a little more gasoline, now, try the sparker. VVhfish! BANGIW' And they all came down in a bunch. Just about this time the academy orchestra struck up a popular two- step and the grand march began. Everyone who took part in the dancing and various amusements gave evidence of having a glorious time. Among the amusing features were the apple-eating contest and the scramble for nuts, which were the source of much merry laughter.
