SOCIETY ANNUAL FRESHMAN RECEPTION On Friday evening, September 30, the Freshmen were en- tertained by the Sophomores. Part of the evening was spent in teaching them the ways of P. H. S. life. By nine- thirty the Freshmen were very wise bunch after one lesson form the Sophs. Light refreshments were served. At ten o'clock the Juniors and Seniors joined them and proceeded to teach them how to dance. The party had broke up at eleven o'clock. All had enjoyed themselves immensely- thanks to the Sophomore of '22. THE FRESHMAN PARTY The Freshman class entertained the Sophomores at Dreamland Hall, Friday evening, October 14. Dancing was the main feature of the evening. A lunch was served at nine o'clock. At ten the upper classmen joined them in the dance. A good time was enjoyed by everyone. HOME COMING ' On the 23rd of November the High School had a Home Coming for the Alumni. There was a parade at 1:30 by members of the student body' A football game was played at 2:30, Walnut vs Prophets- town High. P. H. S. were the victors. Many of the Walnut boys were persuaded to stay for the banquet and dance in the evening. The domestics science classes served the banquet' at the Congregational church dining room. The dance was held at Dudley's Auditorium at 9:00. Music was furnished by the Country Club orchestra of Morrison, Ill. The whole affair proved to be a success and 'tis hoped that one may be given each year. BAZAAR On Saturday, February 25, the school was given permis- sion by the Town Board to use the Town Hall for a Bazaar. Each class organization had a booth of some descrip- tion where they sold various articles. The money which was made by the High School was divided between the school and the organization or class. The school received seventy-five percent which will be used for a library in P. H. S. The grades are going to use theirs for necessary equip- ment in their rooms. The athletic girls put on a vaudeville show. It was a won- derful success and was considered the main part of the whole affair. The entire Bazaar was a success and was pat- ronized by the town people. JUNIOR PARTY The Junior felt the need of a little money a short time ago so they invited the whole school to a party at the Town Hall. Each person was taxed a quarter. It certainly was worth it. They played progressive euchre and danced. Light re- freshments were served. Everyone had a lovely time. I believe the Juniors collected the right number of quarters

too so of course it was a success. Leave it to the Juniors to entertain! THE PROM Due to the wonderful ability of the Juniors to entertain, we are eagerly looking forward to May 5. It is a dreadful mystery. We're all busting with curiosity. The Juniors, when asked, don't seem to know anything about it. Oh, it is the Prom. The Prom is what every Senior looks forward to and what we worked hard to give the Seniors last year. How do we know the date? Never mind, We know it! Leave it to the Junior to keep a secret. I wish I could tell you all about it-but I can't because we can't wait until May 5 to print this book. Therefore we are all in a terible suspense.
