The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing. - A splendid time was reported by all those present, and the boys think the Senior girls royal entertainers. 'ws ., Senior'-Junior Banquet April 25th, 1919. the W. R. C. Hall was the scene of a delightful social event, when the Junior class of the high school entertained the Seniors at a dinner dance, at which the members of the high school faculty also were guests. The rooms had been appropriately decorated for the affair, the dining room in the purple and white of the Juniors and the dancing hall in the old rose and black of the Senior class. In the dining room the window hangings, the festoons from the ceiling, the drapings of the pillars and the shades of the electric lights were all in purple and white. The tables also were most pleasing in appearance. Crystal candle-sticks, and beautiful flower baskets bearing white roses were tied with bows of purple tulle. The napkins and most of the china service were in violet design. Places were laid for 97 guests, and the delicious three course dinner in charge of the ladies of the W. R. C. was served at 6:30, the serving being done by the girls of the Sophomore class. Following the dinner, a brief program was given, James Biggs of the Junior class, presiding' George Anderson, a Senior, responded to the address of wel- come. Supt. W. H. Ray gave a brief talk. Miss Helen W'right, a Junior, and Arthur McHugh, a Senior, made very clever after dinner speeches. Before ad- journing from the dining room, the Juniors sang two very clever little songs, one in honor ofthe Seniors and the other in way of sounding their own praises, the words for both of which had been written and set to music by Miss Margaret Sager of the Junior class. The party then repaired to the dancing hall, which they found prettily dec- orated in honor of the Seniors, and there the rest of the evening was passed most enjoyably, when the guests departed to their homes, the Seniors voting that in the way of entertaining, at least. the Juniors had proven themselves past masters. -W.

lTwenty-sixl Class Prophecy TIME 1935. Do you remember the class of old '19? The most famous class that ever was seen? Sixteen years have now passed by, Since we left the doors of old Waverly High. Our class-mates are scattered the wide world o'er, So call up your memories of each once more. For I'm oing to tell you in a rhyme, What eai is doing at this time. Alvin Freie, you remember, so gallant and gay, Is still a bachelor, so they say. Many a maiden desired to be His fair espouse, but woo none, did he. Xvinifred Bailey, now don't be shocked, Is reforming bums in Broadway block. And dances and sings for charity, too, Such a philanthropic soul I never knew. Onalee Kelley and Margaret Cruthers Are writing books for the benefit of others. Such books as The joys of an Idle Life, Our Work in Suffrage, or Womans' Strifef' And speaking of suffrage, by the way, There's an important thing I have to say. Lynn Saylor is devoting his life to the cause, And is a firm believer in suffragette laws. NVhile attending a movie in the west, I saw a great actress at her best. Crowds thronged to the theater in order to see, Mme' Nafus in Carrie Nation's Plea. Josie Colbu-m is a matron prim, Of an Orphan Asylum, and is now quite thin. She is putting to use her High School knowledge, Though she never received a degree from college. Caroline Osincup, such a studious girl, Has tired at last of the social whirl, And has settled down in NVaverly, To cook for a hardware man, you see. Roland Schulze now on Broadway, Is the proprietor of a cabaret. And two of the dancers, the mos-t brilliant yet known Are Bernice Hagemann and Estella VanDorn. George Anderson is on the Emerald Isle, just resting up for a little while. But always ambitious and looking for work, He is running a sprinkling cart in Dunkirk. Glancing at a Democrat the other day, I noticed an ad which had to say, Let Pape, the plumber, tix it for you, And they say he's built up a good business, too. Marion McHugh, who possessed much knowledge, Is Dean of Women at Wartburg College.
