These knights and ladies were assigned to the western part of the field and were given a grand-stand and official box. They chose court advisors and ministers to help their gracious queen, Miss Elizabeth Sullivan. Court Councilor, Sir Maurice Hartnett, one of the busiest men in his- tory, with a blarc 0f trumpets announced a series of contests, the first of which challenged the knights and ladies to 100727 for the entire Year 00 monthw in HTeddyis News. All responded, and their names were entered in a manuscript which holds honorable place in the grand-stand. Banking was also an event which carried off the blue ribbon. Next, fifteen names received honorable mention for 10070 attendance for the vear. Among the delightful social affairs was the Halloween Frolic held at the castle of Lady Kathleen Dunstan, a most charming hostess. We can only mention the jolly sleigh-ride which afforded so much fun at the feast that was had at a wayside inn known as the Green Parrot. A Book Party was announced by the Rulers of the Castle. Damsels Sinderson and Ward, dressed in novel costumes, attended and came off with first honors, greatly to the delight of their comrades. The grand climax came when 10070 subscriptions were gathered for the Year- book. With the help of the queen, councilor, advisors, and whole-hearted striving by all, these knights and ladies have carried on to a field of glory. Page twenty-four
