HIGH NEWS SENIORS VISIT FROSTBURG NORMAL SCHOOL t’our Representatives Very Much Pleased With the School After the visit of Prof. J. L. Dunkle, on April the 10th, to Smithsburg High, a letter was received inviting the Senior Class and our Faculty to visit the Normal School at Frostburg. Only four of the class were able to go. They were: Josephine Pryor, Charlotte For- rest, Robert Clopper and Richard Martin. Due to the illness of his father-in-law, Mr. Hartle (the principal) was unable to accomp- any them. Mr. C. M. Clopper went with them on the trip. The party left Smithsburg about 9:15 on Saturday morning. May the 4th, and arrived at their destination at 11:40 a. m. They were welcomed by former graduates of S. H. S. and friends. Before luncheon, Prof. Dunkle talked with the visiting students. Luncheon, consisting of baked beans, salad, rasin bread, butter and cocoa was served at one o'clock. The afternoon was spent in meeting the students, resting and viewing the town. Some of the important places which they saw were: the homes of the teach- ers and boys, the public swimming pool, the high school building and the large churches. Dinner was served at 6:00. It consisted of meat, potatoes, peas, dressing, salad, hot rolls, butter and coffee or milk. Dessert was chopped pineapple. After dinner, there was a social time in the living room. Danc- ing was held on the bridge between the dormitory and the main building. This bridge is not like the ones we see over rivers, but is similar to a large hallway. A vic- trola furnished music for the couples. Page II At 7:00 p. m. the students went up the street. They were all in by 10:15, but they did not retire until the bed-time hour. Breakfast was served at 8:30 on Sunday. It was made up of grape-fruit, cereal, bacon, hot rolls, butter and coffee or milk. About nine o’clock in the morning there was a social hour in the living room where all en- joyed themselves. During the time spent at Normal, special privileges were given to the friends of the visiting students. In their leisure moments, the visitors were shown through the main building, where they saw the class rooms, a spacious gymnas- ium (where athletics, assemblies, dances and other entertainments are held) and the lock- ers. The girls were shown through the dormitory, where they spent the night. This building appealed to the girls, as it was very homelike. The school is much more attrac- tive than it is when pictured to us by photo- graphs. After spending a very enjoyable time, the S. H. S. students started on their homeward journey at 10:00 a. m. The girls were loath to leave on account of both old and new friends and the pleasing impression that the school had made upon them. They arrived home at 12:30 p. m. and they seemed extremely pleased at having made the visit. The Senior Class of S. H. S. wish to ex- press their gratitude to Prof. Dunkle, the Faculty and the Student Body of the Normal School for having so delightfully entertained their representatives. (All the schools of Washington County had been invited but Smithsburg was the only one represented). «S» «£» • ❖❖ «5 • $h§h|m§ ♦« The Smithsburg Fruit Cooperage Evaporating Co.
