We Juniors had a hand in Hricingu our Sponsor, Miss Boardman, when she became the bride of Charles Hamilton on April 17, in a beautiful candle-light ceremony at the Fairfield Methodist Church. We met at the high school and then drove to the church where we assembled with other students whose hands and pockets were full of rice. It was a nrice showeru and Miss Boardman had to nduckn to escape a deluge. On Nay 10, our Junior Class gave the departing Seniors the traditional Junior-Senior Banquet at Watchtower Inn, Black Hawk State Park, Rock Island. The tables were tastily decor- ated with soring flowers and royal blue and white tapers, carrying out the Senior class colors, were placed at intervals. Hand-decorated place cards, by which each guest found his place at the tables, were used, also, theblue and white combination of colors. As the class flower is the white carnation, this flower anoeared in white with the name of the guest written in blue. Tomato cocktail and wafers were served as the entree. The dinner course consisted of baked sugar cured ham, potato croquets, spring vegetables, and sa1ad.- French apple pie with coffee was served as the dessert course. The program for the evening follows: Invocation--Varvin Wuehle Welcome to the Seniors--Walter Bull, Junior class pres. Response--Larry Atkinson, Senior class president Address--Principal C.S.

Dancing was scheduled for 9 o'clock and the strains of HHome, Sweet Homou were played at midnight--a fitting farewell to a fine group of Seniors-twenty-six in all-our close friends and companions through three years of high school life at Port Byron. Not a good-bye, Seniors-only Adios! Nay hapoiness and success be yours. We Junior girls, following a precedent of years past, made the flower entwined arches, through which the Seniors passed on their way to the platform on Class Night. We give due credit to the Junior boys for helping us gather the flowers from . neighboring gardens. Not only did we make the arches but held them at Class Night as well.
