first duty was to help the new juniors get acquainted and we soon found that this was not a duty but a pleasure. Some other duties which we found very enjoyable, were making mittens for the Belgian children and doing Red Cross work when we had study periods. The school calendar stated that the Senior prom would be on January twenty- sixth, but we appointed ourselves Julius Caesars just long enough to change that part of the calendar. We decided to give up our one big Senior party because our country's needs were calling for all our spare time and money, as well as most of the young men. Very soon after we had decided to get along without our prom, Dr. Bliss told us that we would have to get along without a school building, because we had very little coal. Mr. Garfield himself could not have consented to this more cheerfully than did the pupils at N. P. N. The grade children were especially patriotic! Never shall we forget those weeks of boarding house schools! We talked, danced, sang and crocheted between classes, and during our classes we demonstrated the fact that we are intelligent human beings by quickly adjusting ourselves to the new methods of class work. The sands in Father Time's hour glass ran very fast during our Senior year and almost before we thought of our graduation dresses, we made plans for Class day and Senior's were told to bring their invitation money. The few short weeks of May and June dropped quickly into the past, and when we left our Alma lylater we were already wondering when we would be able to save the price of a trip hack to old New Paltz. 28
