Page 46 flbcaminatiun Ennis Name: Any Rockford College Student except a Senior. Subject: A matter of great importance. Date: This year . Question I: What is a Senior? Answer Cby a Freshmanj 2 A senior is a person of great dignity and importance with an inexhaustible fund of information expressible in an ever ready flow of language upon subjects incomprehensible and equally uninteresting to the Fresh- manfs mindg a person to be envied because of highly valued privileges, such as lack of chaperones, moreover a person to be admired as being extraordinarily clever in successfully outwitting the Faculty to such a degree that the long sought diploma is at last within reachg a person to be humored with attentions denoting the utmost respect of under classmen, and yet on the whole rather to be pitied for having a distorted idea of the relative values of study and fun. Answer Cby a Sophomorejz A senior is a person to be very much admired because of her achievements in the various phases of college lifeg hence she furnishes a good example to strive to emulateg one to be loved for her kindly interest in, and thoughtful consideration of the members of her sister class, one who has grasped the full signincance of the college spirit to which she has made her own contributiong one who can converse intelligently, and meet every situation resourcefully, in fact one who is of great importance in influencing the spirit of the school. Answer thy a Juniorj: A senior is one who has reached the highest step in the plane toward which all the classes are striving, one to be respected and admired duly because of greater experience and maturer years, but to be made to realize that she must not rate her superiority too highly, because there are others not far behind herg but most of all one with whom the Juniors cooperate, not only setting the right kind of an example to under classmen in every phase of the college activities, but to help them in every way possible by being their sisters in the highest sense of the word. Question II: Of what importance is a Senior? Answer Callbz Absolutely essential! Page 47 Page 48 Eepartments HELEN DENT Rockford High School, Rockford, Illinois 1916.

THE PERFECT GIRL We've heard so much of the perfect girl Who's neither too fat nor too thin Who is bright as a dollar and full of life With plenty of pep and vim. Now the Sophs have concocted a brilliant scheme. In plain language we have Usome bunch. We've decided to put all our virtues together And fit out that girl from the bunch. We'll saw off Margaret Adams and put it on Flipp The result: one of just the right height And since we're so united we're quite satisfied That the different parts wont fight. She'll study like Mary, play hockey like Tweed, With the pep of the class you can bet But as Socrates said when his lantern went out 'iYou don't know half of it yet.

WUZANUTT Sept. 18-Born, Tuesday, Sept. 16, to Mrs. Dere Aresee, a charming infant daughter. Mother and babe are reported to be doing as well as could be expected. Oct. 9-The shaded lawns on Seminary Street presented a festive spectacle indeed this afternoon when little Miss Twentie Three stepped forth in gala attire, at the bidding of her elders. Her coiffure was especially noticed by the spectators as one conducive to the future young Miss's ringlets. Nov. 10-An evening sociable, tree to guests, was held at the seminary on Sat- urday last. About two hundred of the younger generation was in attendance tripping the light fantastic until the late hour of 11 p. m. was chimed, when the guests departed, voting their hostesses royal entertainers Nov. 22-Yesterday afternoon a scrappy contest with shinny sticks is stated by one of our live wire reporters to have been staged in the Northeast corner of Mrs. Arcsee's spacious lawn, bet.ween little Miss Twentie Three and her elder sister. Although the child put up a sturdy battle she was vanquished by the superior skill of her opponent. Dec. 15-We regret to state that an outbreak of an epidemic has necessitated a sudden change in climate for the daughters of Mrs. Dere Aresee. In consequence the social center of the community has been paralyzed temporarily. The Clarion extends its heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved Mother in her loneliness. Jan. 31-A short course in mental tennosity has been instituted amongthe pre- cocious offspring of our social leader, and until it is completed all other plans are suspended into the future. Feb. 29-Two of the most brilliant successes of the season have been those at Seminary House during the past month, the first. being a formal ball and the latter a costume affair on George Washington Day. According to widespread reports, a good time was had by all those present on both occasions, everyone partaking being loath to depart. March 8-We are glad to welcome a new effort in the region of journalism into the editorial fraternity of our circle, the aforementioned being styled the Freshman Taper and being the product of the fertile cerebrum cells of Miss Twentie Three, who appears to be developing into a capable young lady one who will in time be a pillar of our community. ' March 14-Tlie coming-out promenade of Mrs. D. Aresee's youngest daugh- ter ,which was held last evening, was undoubtedly the most gorgeous affair of many months. The debutante wore a gown of rainbow cloth, charming in the extreme. A sumptuous dinner was served and dancing was indulged in to the strains of a five piece orchestra. Judging from the beginning already made, the infant whom the Clarion heralded with trumpet blast is in a fair way toward developing into a useful and noble woman, standing for a real uplift to those with whom she comes in touch.

The Freshmen established themselves in the good graces of the upperclassmen at the beginning of the year by their thorough good sportsmanship at the time when they were formally admitted to membership in the Day Students' Organization. Upon that occasion our plans for a picnic were interfered with by a severe thunder storm, but a grange house furnished adequate shelter and a very acceptable setting for the enjoyment of our eats and usual fun. The ever popular spreads helped a great deal in making the girls better acquainted with one another. Not a holiday missed being celebrated in this fashion, in fact there were a few extra spreads, if for no other reason, just because the girls were hungry. 'The Christmas grab bag served a double purpose, for it afforded the girls vast amusement with the childish toys which were later to give pleasure to some little tots of Rockford. A more detailed account of the Day Students' activities Would, of course, involve the pursuits of the Student body as a whole, but there are a few notable characteristics among the Day Students. 'tFlr instance, Dot's pranks, Bess's stories, Ruth Ellenls highly developed ar- borial propensities, Fran Regan's Sylph like qualities, Rose Green's studiousness, Bee's conversation, K. Olson's attention to her coiffure, Anna Eaton's sedateness, and above all, general discussions. DoRoTHY MANDEVILLE . Preridenz TTUTH WILLIAMS . . Viva-Preridenr EMELINE KING .

Marjorie seated in a chair at the left of the fireplace is reading in a dramatic voice from a fat, red, volume. Suddenly a log snaps, and a shower of sparks fly out. A stifled scream, then intense silence. Marjorie Creadingj- Killed herself? Yes,yes. So everybody will say. But I know, I helped to kill her, if I'd only been merciful. tMarjorie shuts the book slowly-A long silence, broken only by the rain rattling thewindow panesj. Ruth-Hels mighty hard on women. Nan-Yes he's a manl But then women are intolerant with each other and only too easy when dealing with men. Look at Elleau! Aline-Yes, she was horrid. Paula was the strongest character, and she was unhappy. There's a big plea for tolerance there. I wonder whether Pinero means that as a solution for the double standard. - Dorothea-I don't know, but then we can't solve the problems of the universe. Besides I'm hungry!

I shivered as a cold moist lock of hair stirred upon my foreheadiit was as though a departed shade had laid his icy finger upon 'me. I started fearfully and wrapped my classic robes about me more tightlyg but they were as thin as the mist and seemed to mock my attempts.

I - X' Q bm, This year with the addition to the faculty of one who had just come from the Y-huts of France, and with the union with the student body of two girls who had been born and educated in France came an increased interest in the French language, traditions and customs. To satiate this desire a French club was formed, called Le Cercle Petain after the French general. In the beginning, the meetings were held under the direction of the head of the French department. French songs were sung, stories read, a short play enacted by the more advanced students, and informal talks given by those who had just returned from France. The large attendance showed an encouraging interest in affairs outside our own country. Finally, officers were elected and the club turned over to the students. A con- stitution was written and the club put on a firm working basis. The large group composed of all those in the French classes and all those interested meets every two weeks. On the weeks between these two meetings, it is planned to hold meetings of those in the two most advanced classes to study plays,or perhaps a novel. OFFICERS ALINE BARTHOLOMEW .

At the monthly meetings very helpful talks are given by the faculty members, and the students are given the opportunity to discuss the different phases of the work. Dinners are also given once a month which serve to give a little social life to the club, as Well as giving the girls a chance to apply their knowledge in a very practical manner. Before the close of the year Miss Bennet of the Women's Collegate Bureau of Occupations is coming to the college to tell us of the broadening fields for women's work and especially to assist in anv way she can those girls who are now ready to enter one of these fields of Work.

' The Social Service Club was reorganized with new vigor this year under the leadership of Prof. Eldrige, head of the sociology department. A constitution was formed and new ofhcers, consisting of a President and an executive committee were elected. Some very interesting meetings have been held, at which talks were given by some of the members on such subjects as Child Welfare and Its Problems, Labor and Its Problems , and Social Work in the Factories . The work of the club has been along several linesg a number of classes have been taken by the girls at the settlement house,a story hour is conducted on Saturday afternoons at the W. C. T. U. Building, and cooking classes are conducted at the Boys Club by the home economic girls. The club was also instrumental in getting the girls to give several subscriptions to the National Child Labor Committee, as well as in making sales in the Christmas Red Cross Seal drive.

' GENERAL COMPOSITION. This profoundly estimable society is composed of the whole student body, and all others who care to partake of its privileges, ad- vantages, joys, and sorrows. The sorrows, however, are not predominant, being mostly apparent on Dues Day, and at those trying times when the skating-pond- that-was-to-be more closely resembles a mud-puddle. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES. To the casual observer this may seem to be merely a seething mass of active children, young girls, and women fkindly note the omission of menj bent on having a good time at any cost and in any manner,but on closer observation the aforesaid casual observer would observe that it is really a hom- egenous and decidedly united whole, composed of very distinct and definite per- sonalities. Each and every one of these distinct and definite personalities is en- tirely ruled and governed by two ideas, and two only. The first and foremost and most important of these two large and guiding ideas is her intense interest and love for the school as a whole, and the second is her love for her class and class- mates. These two ideals influence her in every action of the day and every dream of the night. They lead her higher and higher, from one lofty peak to another, toward the goal of absolute perfection. Of course self has long since been forgotten, she is actuated by only the most noble motives, and by the time she reaches the staid and honored position of SENIOR, she is the acme of all that can be desired in sweet, unselfish, public-spirited devotion. The most favored and most perfect ones reach the star that shines above the highest and most lofty of all these lofty peaks. That star of gold, formed of two letters curiously entwined, which only those of the highest and most superior merit can obtain. CHEMICAL PROPERTIES. The chief constituent of this active and vigorous Organization is live and positively charged Pep. This necessary ingredient of all successful enterprize is quite common in the world in general,but it is entirely and sadly lacking in some individuals. There is a popular opinion to the effect that charitable institutions should be established throughout the country to relieve society of its horrible burden of pepless people. May we say in passing, however, that the individuals that go to make up this association are either plentifully supplied with this all-important ingredient when they enter it or they contract it soon afterwards. The other ingredient which is incorporated into the material under observation and discussion is Good Sportsmanship. This constituent is equally as important and as much to be desired as the aforementioned Pep, but it is not present in as large a quantity. This element has the curious quality of never being conspicuous except bv its absence. Its importance in any event is never fully realized until it is found to be partially or entirely lacking, and then all the pep in the world can not suffice. Besides Pep and Good Sportsmanship there is a small percentage of rare elements which cannot definitely he determined. Thus, have we striven to show how this worthy, dignified, and highly respectable Hall of Learning is graced and adorned by the beautifully coordinated, and per- fectly harmonized Athletic Association.

Goal LOUISE ORTMAN LUCILE CASEY MARIAN STYLES DOROTHY WHITE VIRGINIA WATKINS iiannkep Qliircus Once, back in the bygone ages, the effervescence of our juvenility, long crushed under the heel of suppression, burst its bonds. Yea, it leaped into the firmament as do the flames from under a boiling caldron, and our infantile spirits were fain to gambol with the lamblets of the meadows. Then an August member of that class which now stands at the brink of life, arising in our midst, spake forth her soul, and the souls of us all in silent accord fluttered neath the spell of her syllables and the galetea of our middies. And she hailed us: Up, comrades, up! This is not the hour for idle Meditation! Let us leap like the hart and the roe forth to the field of battle, armed in silverC20centsD and panting for the conflict. Furthermore, let it lie hereby decreed that whosoever shall appear on that spot in the garb of a N atural-born citizen of the realm, the same shall be bathed in tar, ornamentedwith pluinage, and conveyed about upon a rail. Forward, then and on to Victoryln Hearing these words, we arose and departed, pondering in our hearts as to what manner of assemblage we had been ordered, and what new astonishments the day would liring forth. But at the hour of one, from our chambers we heard the sound of many footprints and looking forth from the casements beheld a group of the order of K. lVl., armed with utensils and giving forth curious and wonderful in- tonations. And hard behind them pressed a score and two fair maidens,attired, some in purple, some in scarlet, and bearing in their hands heavy wands of oak and maple. And behind them appeared a divers Multitude: The babe in its carriage, the patriarch leaning on his cane, the man in middle life, with rotund form and goatee flying to the breeze, the youth and maid, whose eyes shed tender- ness, wliose lips spoke love, and other populace of high and low degree, all thronging from their portals. And controlling the motley horde were two stern officers of the law with ever ready club and shining star. And forsooth, ere the day was done, more than one sturdy citizen was forced to summon aid,for twas discovered a band of highwaymen was abroad. And now the maids proceeded out on the field, and with them a solitary black figure. And to the melody of her whistle they dashed hither and thither in pursuit of a round white object, which they tapped ever and anon with their wands. But some fell by the wayside, and gasping forth t.heir protestations, were borne away to the loving solicitude of the seers and leeches in attendance. And some, fainting were revived by the gentle ministrations of the water boys, whose tender forms were little able to endure the vicissitudes of their calling, as they were buffeted about from one expiring heroine to another, while from the side lines the spectators looked on with hoots or with acclamations. But it was a day of joy, indeed a day of joy all unrestrained, and we gloried in it. And when the triumph of the Purple was complete, and we wended our way back to our abodes, our spirits were at rest and our souls were filled with an ever- lasting peace.

The way she sticks is ll appalling. t'Make E. R. get out from under the basket-that proximity worries me. Was there ever such a game '? what's the score? H22, 24 and one more minute to play. A breathless silence-then Eaton throws a basket just as the time keepers whistle gives the signal for every one to break into riotous howls of delight. Teacher tries in vain to quell the spirits of this motley crowd but not until every one has shoutedlherself hoarse is it quiet enough for Miss Bockins to make her report. This Senior-Freshmen game completes our Basketball season of 1920 with a score of 22-24. As you remember the Senior-Sophomore score was 32-18 and the Junior-Freshnien was 10-20. This has been a hard earned victory for the Freshmen,and they have in every way shown themselves worthy of the silver cup. The Seniors too have played a clean game straight through. On the whole, the spirit shown this year has been splendid: Every one has come out well and worked hard. I hope this same spirit may continue through our following Basket- ball seasons. Thank you!

'Cause then you can snatch up friend racket and hie you to the tennis court, there to caper and frolic to your heart's content. Canlt you just feel your old blood go like wild fire thru all your veins and don't you know your cheeks are rosy pink and your eyes like regular jewels? But mostly you're just glad you're you-you with a ball and a racquet and another starry eyed some one with whom to play. Gr, if you are really serious, then there's joy in pitting wits against a like minded partner and playing the game with might and main. There's all the exhilaration in life in being able to put the ball just exactly where you wanted it and in being able to serve and return and volly and cut and all the other gleeful processes. And whether you win or whether you lose it's all the same-if you've lost it's been to a better man, if you 've won-you've only played for the fun anyway. Oh, it is marvelous to have the hands and feet and 1'acket and day for a wonderful game of tennis! SKATING The winter season opened this year with bright prospects for skating, but the weather man, working together with fate, seemed to be against us. Before Christmas we shoveled the snow from the campus east of Sill, and the Fire Department Hooded the ground, so that there was good skating during the holidays. Upon our return from Christmas vacation, since we found our ice covered with snow, diligently set to work to clear it, only to learn upon the comple- tion of this task, that the city was short of water, making it impossible for the Fire Department to reflood the ice. Even so, skating on the campus was fairly good for a short time, but many girls also availed themselves of the opportunity of skating on Rock River. The Cityof Rockford planned an ice Carnival inwhich the college girlswere to participate in a game of ice hockey, but after the ice hockey sticks were purchased, the date was postponed, because of the flu, until sometime between semesters. Once again we were disappointed. As a result we have for the remainder of the season resorted to roller skating. The winter Garden is open to the College girls every other Monday morning, and much enthusiasm has been shown by the skaters. SWIMMING On Tuesday evenings of each week a small party of girls enjoy a dip at the Rockford High School swimming tank. Here one often sees some fancy diving or a demonstration of some new stroke. And those who are not capable of fancy diving make a brave attempt to cover, in some way, the distance between the diving board and the water. Tuesday evenings are looked forward to with great pleasure by those who enjoy swimming.

You know we had a dance, and We could ask men to it, and we could dance until a quarter of eleven. We had a really truly jazzy orchestra and we had so much fun. I was so sorry it had to end. I love-just love-to dance with men. From the Sophomores diary: 'tTolo gave another of their dances last evening.

Cifhairrnan of this popular dance-Sarah Mercer '22. winter iinfnrmal The girls came back to school January sixth after three weeks of vacation marked by several, possibly a great many dances. They still loved to dance though as they showed by their attendance at the second informal of the year when a corps of girls, mostly Willing freslnnen, under the leadership of Elizabeth Shedd '23, staged a most successful dance. The gym was prettily decorated and cozy corners were scattered ad. lib. about the public thorough-fares. The punch was most refreshing and novel after five cups of coffee,cocoa and water,and hot water and lemon. The girls who attended the dance thanked and now thank again the various committees which made such a jolly, happy evening possible. Page 108 Tltipper Qllassmen lninrmal NOVEMBER 29, 1919 tWitl1 apologies to Longfellowj I stood on the stairs that evening, And my heart was all aglow, For the strain of jazz stole up to me. As I watched the dancers helow. I saw the Upper Classmen In gowns of daintiest hue, And their escorts in Heiviesl' or khaki Trip lightly before my view. There were little maids in black and white To serve and to open the door, And the rooms were very festive With autumn leaves galore. And the old Clock down in lVIiddle Looked wisely up at me For he was in the midst of it all And saw things I couldn't see. How often, O how often, I longed to join the fun, But that was not for sueh as I In College just begun. Page 109 :freshman from The odor of incense permeated the atmosphere. Groups of merry young people gaily tripped down the stairs to the dining room. China-town, did you say? Millions of brightly colored tags were swinging from the ceiling, huge lanterns dimmed the lights, while Chinese candles and shades shed a soft glow over the tables. Oh, what a jolly meal! Brilliant headdresses and coolie hats bobbed up and down while everyone enjoyed a luscious dinner. All too soon, it was time to wend our way to the dancing hall. Here we found Spring blossomed out in bowers of lavendar and yellow f1owers,cElmbing over lattices and around posts. Each corner seemed a bit of a transplanted summer house. The music was a dream almost too good to be true. It enhanced every- one to dance and to dance unendingly. Oh, what a short evening! But so brim- ful of joys, men, and good things to eat that it lingers permanently in the memory of every participant. And a good time was had by all. -s ----...U--.,... a 'R 4' N '. ,-M 5 6-,ff A '-. gil le E . Y? E 9 kia- 1 ,s Q .. . ,. I ---- 1 4 D v . I 1 5 . f--1 N rj: i Q I' va: . . v 'a- - . 3 Q- . P R lp .

All society was present in gala attire, ladies in their chiffons and satins and jewels, gentlemen in the conventional dark evening suits or in the blue or drab of America's defenders. Rarely has the dining salon been as gay as it was that night. Handsome young gallants, their daredevil eyes sparkling under a smooth C?j dark pompadeur, their tiny black mustaches bristling with excitement, cast luring glances at the demure ladies by their sides, as they enjoyed the elaborate three course dinner. But there was more to enjoy besides the dinner and the dancing between courses. The surprise of the year occurred when the dance music changed toa wedding march and down the long aisle came a bridal procession. It had been surmised for some time that the wedding would not be far in the future, but no one had any idea that this evening of festivity would be chosen After the bride and groom were made one,the party adjourned to the ballroom. There, until the clock chimed 11:45, men and maids danced to the strains of the best jazz money could buy. Dainty refreshments were served in the parlors during the evening. VVhen at last Home Sweet Home proclaimed the end of a perfect evening, there were not many who could say that Mock Prom had been a failure. Page III ofher oose to Porgy And it came to pass, that the days were fulfilled that the freshmen should be initiated. For lol up from the daughters of Rockford there arose a great cry, a babel on this wise: They must be chastened, yea, even as their sisters before them. 'fLet there be judgment, as in the days of old, where the goats shall be separated from the sheep and cast out into wailing and gnashing of teeth! Watch ye, for the day cometh! O now ye are a stiff necked people, living on the fat of the land, the time approacheth when ye shall be weighed in the balance and found wanting. And there were heard whispers of vengeance, and the sword and fire- Baby Party! But behold, a voice spake from on high, saying: Hearken, oh ye upperclassmen, hearken and be still. For she that smiteth her little sister in any Wise shall surely be punished and shall live in sackcloth and ashes all the days of her life. And it came to pass that the voice ceased, and the elders conferred one with the other as to what they should do, according to the commandments. And in time it happened that the new daughters of Rockford were charged to appear in divers conditions of raiment on the set night, in the person of children of the tribe of Mother Goose. And some rebelled, but the wise-hearted among them counselled prudence, for they knew whereof they spoke. So upon the eve appointed, there assembled together a great multitude, clad after the manner of days of yore. Behold! there were revealed to our wondering eyes Simon Whom the legends have named Simple, and Peter, and John the Lean, and an host of Marys and Jills and Jacks and others unto the fourth generation behind us. And there stood up before them a righteous judge, calling them by name unto their doom. But it came to pass that their burdens were made light and their tasks easy, as it was ordained. So the tears of them that wept were dried, and the fear of the tremulous passed away. And the freshmen went out from the assembly with high heads and undaunted courage, for their dreaded punishment had been merely a return to nursery days, and their hearts had been set at rest. Page 112 illinln Zlnittatiun The Follies of 1919 played to a capacity house at Rockford College on October 20, 1919. Mr. Ziegiield himself should have been proud to possess all stage rights on this wonderful production. Did you ever see such cunning young- sters as those who slept behind the footlights or any so well trained as those in the blocks in the Episode of the Nursery? Just off the S. S. Freshman came five jolly sailors with their lassies and snappy songs of the sea. They delighted us all, and made us long to do the horn-pipe with them. Queen Ukeliptus and her train of South Sea Beauties who could surely make their ukeleles talk carried us faraway to the land of Hawaiian maidens and eternal sunshine. The sprightly dance of 1923 in the class colors showed to the Rockford College Spirits the gaiety and frivolity of the new girls. The last episode was laid in a beautiful garden of flowers, whose drowsy heads were nodding until the gardener woke them by a song. The entire company gathered on the stage for the Grande Finale, and the Freshmen song was sung for the first time. Not content with having the Follies here with the original cast, a culinary orchestra held the audience spellbound by their musical efforts. Hrdlicka, Shedd, Pelham, and Lewis were the directors leading the new girls who worked hard toward the success of the f'Follies of 1919 . Page 115 beniur Bay There is little of distinction about the cap and gown day of one year from those of every other year, except to the seniors whose day it isg that distinction is that it is their day. And to the seniors of this year, the memory of it is quite dis- parate from that of any other cap and gown day.

CONGRATULATIONS in a charmingly material form, viz: a plant from Class of 1919, ten pounds of chocolates from Class of 1921, an abundance of red roses from Class of 1922, and individual corsages from Class of 1923.

Here were the juniors,all dressed inwhite and Wearing Wreaths of ivy. As the shower subsided, We went out and Watched the juniors plant the ivy. This ceremony over, they proceeded to make the rising bells un- necessary, by singing junior songs in the court, closing with our Alma Mater. But did you see them at their Breakfast Banquet? Corsages, chrysanthemums, roses, and candy from the different classes. And oh! boy! beaucoup de grape juice! Last of all they marched into the chapel which was charmingly decorated with fruit and ivy. The services Were devoted to the Junior Class.

Last evening was a pleasantly memorable one for the students and those fortunate enough to be guests at Rockford College, where a Hallovve'en Masquerade was given under the auspices of the Tolo Club. Dinner was served at 6:15 in the candle-lighted dining room, where the decora- tions carried out in orange and black formed a pleasing background for the light party dresses of the girls. During the meal, Miss Clara Shaw of Donovon, Ill. sang, and Miss Marjorie Tyler of Rockford gave a solo dance. An enthusiastic encore brought both of the girls back again to repeat their numbers. Soon after dinner the guests proceeded to the appropriately decorated gym- nasium, where from the stage they had an excellent view of the Whole room. When the masqueraders began to arrive, it was difficult to recognize in the motley crowd any of the girls one had met in the dining room. Besides the usual ghosts and witches there were all manner of characters from Japanese ladies to clowns and ti-amps. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Frost were announced. They appeared, and executed the the intricate steps of a skater's danceg after which they led the grand march of queerly assorted couples. When uninasked, the skaters proved to be Miss Bockius of the physical education department and Miss Ruth Wilson of Rockford The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing which the girls all enjoy and without which none of their parties are complete.

When the dinner bell sounded there were the final applications of corn starch to the hair, beauty patches to the face, and a general survey of one's self in the mirror where one was confronted by either a dignified George or Martha. Then followed a procession into the dining-room which rivaled any that Mount Vernon itself has seen. Here in the dining-room with its many tables, each with its glowing candles giving a softness to the decorations, one might well imagine it a true colonial banquet. Even the songs with which Clara Shaw entertained us during dinner helped to make the colonial spirit more emphatic. On the other hand one was pleasantly reminded of the present by the music furnished by an orchestra which played tunes that would have made George himself want to fox trot had he been there. From dinner one went to the gymnasium which looked its best due to the or- iginality of the decorating committee. In this setting, surrounded by an impressive group eight couples danced the ininuet in as graceful a manner as Could have been done in former days. 'tViolet.te , a delightful dance was given by Marjorie Tyler, followed by a Balloon Dance given by six of the girls. After this pleasing program the chairs went back against the walls and the rest of the evening was spent in dancing steps not known to our fore fathers. Late that night there were many tired Georges and Marthas, but every one wished that George Washington could have more than one birthday a year.

We were on our way to replenish ourselves after the Review of Reviews, when Hops espied a sign which read, Breathe air you must, but not the dust! Well, she proceeded down the street with that cultivated blank look of hers, and when ever she met anyone, she chanted out, in the most sepulchral of voices, Breath air you must but not the dust. Betty did her best to keep her quiet but the incorrigible Hops could not be shut up. She saw a policeman standing on the corner and she wandered list- lessly toward him and chanted her little chant. His eyes fairly bulged out and he turned to Betty and said. Say, Madam, yould better take her in VVe dontt allow- He didn't finish his sentence for Hops interrupted with a long drawn out ''Breath-air-you-must-but-not-the-dust. The officer fairly trembled when he said, Gee, but she's crazy, ain't she? Or what's the trouble? Betty, oh she was a scream, looked him square in the eye and said, Pardon, sir, but its only a little inactivity on the part of her medulla ablongata, and her cerebrum has been incapacitated by the under exertion of her cerebellum during examination week. The policeman just gasped and said, Examinations, whatfs them? VVell take her home or I'll lock'er up. R. Von Scheader Geel but Ive got an awful tooth ache. I wish I'd been born without teeth. M.

So here's a bravo, and a treat To those who serve us what we eat! Each day at morn, at night and noon we gather round the board, we sup the soup and lick the spoon, and joy it doth afford. The tender steak we masticate, with squash and taters brown 3 the Boston beans, the wayside greens, they all go slipping down. We revel in the slabs of mush and in the pancakes flat, which give us all our muscles and our sinews and our fat. So let us hold our diaphragms and breathe a good long breath, while we let out half a dozen cheers and a tiger for the chef! Across the court, he goes each day Always burdened in the same old way, For, for us he carries something to eat, And sometimes they're Irish-but oft times they're sweet, Sometimes they're baked, and sometimes they're burned, Sometimes they're served both noon and morn. But for all o' that and all we may say We're thankful that Fred brings 'em everyday. Page 133 GIRLS! PLEASE WALK ON WEST SIDE OF MAIN ST. , CE. dz W.

Main St. Philosophy of a Freshman When a fellow student asks to see your Latin, let him see it. It is almost always wrong and he will get it wrong. When the teacher Hbawls him outl' he will learn a lesson and won't ask you or anybody else if he can look at your Latin, science, etc., again. When a fellow student 'L pulls a boner in class laugh at him. Maybe he is sensitive and then he will take better care to get better lessons next time. When a classmate comes to you and asks if he can borrow a dime because he forgot his lunch, donlt let him have it. If he goes hungry, next time he will bring his lunch. By the time he has learned all these lessons by experience he will be as independ- ent as a sophomore.-Franklin High School Posts IFS Weisefs for Blouses The smartest of new styles in the up-to-the-minute fabrics.
