D.: The Senior play given tonight was pronounced a success. We're plenty glad for it means Mr. Ramsey is going to feed us. He sure has been a trump to us all the may through.

S'funny to see how awkward they ere when sewing, but I heard the men say they bet we girls couldn't fix that good a meal. Wc'll bet they are just

So do we. MAY l. Tonight we eat. The Senior play cast is to go to Pine Hill for a picnic. Miss Stewart has helped the cooks fix the chicken, and it certainly is delicious.

Recuperating from the picnic, but I'm not the only one who has to recuperate. Did we eat! 5. Starting work on the last issue of nThe Mirrorn for this year. Bet Miss Brown is glad. 6. This operetta practice is exhausdng everyone. I'd just as soon play hockey myself, but Mr. Wilkins might call it hockey playing instead of Hhitch hiking 7.
