lent hostess and Loudon Dickson was a very elegant toastmaster. After the banquet one hundred and fifty guests danced to their hearts’ content. One evening during the play practice we had a chafing dish party in the basement. As we were about to pre- pare the lobster Newberg the door came crashing in and also a number of Juniors, Sophomores and Freshmen. After a long argument they, being unable to find our refreshments, departed, taking with them Anna Merrill. After many trials and tribulations she succeeded in get- ting back and the party continued. The night before Marion Burroughs was to leave for Savery, Wyo., Van Gooding entertained the class at a 5-o’clock dinner in her honor. A most enjoyable evening was spent playing cards and singing. On the 18th of April the members of the cast in “Anne of Old Salem” gave Anna Merrill the surprise of her life by going up to spend the evening with her. The chief event was the triple wedding performed by Rev. Cotton Mather.

 0C In the year of 1910 as Freshmen the social events were few and far between. However, the one function of the year was a party at Love’s. The evening was spent mostly as a musical entertainment. Refreshments were served and the “little ones” departed for home at an early hour, all voting Harry a delightful host. The following year was more eventful. As Sopho- mores we started the year off with a rousing party given by Jessie Brooks at the home of Mrs. Gumprecht. Juniors and Freshmen had a great desire to devastate the kitchen larder with good things to eat. Then, spurred on by hun- ger. succeeded by cunning strategy, iti getting a few “eats,” mostly cocoa and milk. We were again entertained at Love’s. Games of all sorts were played. The fun was not interrupted by the Freshmen and Juniors, as the hose was ready for imme- diate use. The Seniors next entertained us at the home of Grace Remington. Mesmerizing was the interesting feature of the evening. Van charmed us by singing a delightful solo entitled. “The Morning Glory.” In the third year one of our members, Trevinia Clark, moved to Denver. On the evening before her departure Marjorie Dins entertained the class in her honor at a taffy pull. Hallowe’en night soon came and with it many masked figures. An immense skeleton led the guests up a ladder to the second story window of the school house, where they were received by two ghosts. Weird noises, min- tctp gled with the screeches of the frightened guests were heard throughout the building. The gypsy offered each one a plate ladened with eats.” After unmasking the guests grew accustomed to the unusual scenes and it was a late hour before they departed. On March 27 the Juniors gave a sumptuous banquet in honor of the class of T3 at the Cabin hotel. Toasts and jokes had their usual part during the feast. At a later hour more guests assembled and the rest of the evening was spent in dancing. The Juniors love eats” as well as ant' one so, as our friends, the Freshmen, were having a picnic with the teachers, we invited ourselves and very politely took a portion of their refreshments. When they discovered us sitting across the street calmly eating their food they became enraged and going to the pool hall each bought himself a 5-cent sandwich. The Juniors finished the day with a sunset supper on the Sulphur cave. Last but not least of that happy year we were enter- tained at a lawn party at the Bath house by the class of T3. Although it rained and Van ruined a pair of trousers we all enjoyed ourselves immensely. Our fourth year began with an auto ride to Hayden bridge, where we had a true camp supper. The Senior sunset supper was held at the school house on account of rain. On March 27 the Seniors were royally entertained by the class of T5 at a banquet given at the Cabin hotel. The president of the Junior class, Ocy Nelson, made an excel-
