28 THE OCKSHEPERIDA To Emma Rose we give this horn, that she may lie able to attract more attention. To Everett Shores we give this girl, for him to take to the next commission dance. Walter McGoogan can't get a date, so we t x k pity on him and got this package of “dates’’ for him. Helen Taffner has one idol, and that is “Jeff” of “Mutt and Jeff” fame, so we give her this statue of him. Louise Dalke and Bertha Mayland will have to go fifty-fifty on these wienes, the remnants of a German dachshund. Lastly, a few of the Seniors were given graduation presents by the Juniors. ith Gerald Duncan, as toastmaster, equal to the occasion at all times, everything passed merrily to the end.
