gr-- , Zluninr Gllama lginturg Extrarta Zllrum a Biarg September 15, 1905. At last I'm here! At last I've reached the Col- lege girl stage. To begin at the beginning. I arrived here this morning just inqtime for chapel exercises. I know I'm going to enjoy chapel ever so much-I wonder why they don't have more of it at the high schools. Afterwards we were given a reception in Middle Hall which I enjoyed about as much as I do all receptions. From what I saw this morning, there are some of the best girls in the Freshman class, although I heard some of the older girls saying that we were not as many as usual. We'll have to make up in quality what we lack in quantity I guess. I had an awful time getting to some of my class rooms-I don't believe I'll ever be able to End my way in all those halls and corridors. There will be a reception for the new girls tomorrow night, guess I'll go. 'October 13, 1905. Now we're really and truly Rockford College girls- tried and proven and not found wanting. We had Tolo initiation tonight. We were the first to be initiated-all the old girls are charter members- and we gave them such a successful entertainment that they're going to continue the practice next year and every other next year. They divided us into groups of three, each group furnishing live minute entertainments. Some of them were great. There were ghosts, prima donnas fwho couldn't sing any more than a rabbitj, an organ grinder of the most approved type with two of the best monkeys, except that one was minus a tail before the end of the performance, old fashioned country school marm with her class, professional reader, and many more, besides some just plain good things. If a class with such an amount of originality, resourcefulness, and abilty to produce everything out of nothing doesn't make its mark-it won't be our fault. ' November 12, 1905. Had our first class meeting today. We unan- imously elected our president and secretary, and chose dark red and a dark red rose for our class color and flower. Also, we decided to have a class banquet and invite the Juniors-even a small class sometimes has its ad- vantages. March 16, 1906. At last We've had our long planned for banquet. But then, you never wait too long for a good time-and this certainly was worth waiting for. The tables looked so pretty with the dark red roses in the center and dark red lettering on the place-cards with everything else 1211
