The committee in charge was as fol- lows: Chairman Morton Lord, Romeo Duc- los, William Delehanty, Dorothy Law, and Elizabeth Morse. There were about eighty couples present and everybody appeared to enjoy a good time. Music was furnished by the Imperial Orchestra of this town. On September 30 the teachers gathered to- gether in the cooking room in honor of Miss Locke ' s coming marriage. Refreshments were first enjoyed. Then every one joined in a Spider web hunt. At the end of each string with the exception of Miss Locke ' s was found a stick of candy, but on hers was tied a table-cloth with napkins. The rest of the afternoon was spent in playing games. Every- body had a good time and many hope that some one else will follow in Miss Locke ' s footsteps, so that our faculty may again have a good excuse to be young not only in looks but in actions. On Wednesday afternoon, October 8, after the school session, part of the Holy Cross Jazz Orchestra, secured through the efforts of Miss Earls for the Girls ' Glee Club, gave a concert which lasted about an hour. Then they played for dancing until six o ' clock. Tickets for the concert were ten cents each. We all thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon and hope that another such treat may be in store for us soon. The committee in charge of the tickets, which was as follows: Chairman Elizabeth Morse, Linnea Norman, Dorothy Claflin, Marjorie Harris, Ruth Mansfield, and Frances Troy, made very attractive tickets. Posters were made by Elizabeth Morse and Eleanor Edwards. The girls ' gym classes have started once more. We hope that all our girls will join. The opportunity offered by the Y. M. C. A. is an exceptional one and we should show that we are appreciative of their kindness. Since we ourselves have no gym, we are nat- urally at a disadvantage as far as sports are concerned. But now opportunity is knock- ing at our door. Let us open to it. Join the classes, girls! Then we can have inter- scholastic sports. Show a little life ! All turn out to classes and see what you can do as basketball players. The fee for one year is $1.00, and there are very few who can not afford that amount to keep themselves phys- ically fit. PICK-UPS {Edited by Theckla Fitzgerald, ' 22.) THE CHEERFUL GUY Oh, it ' s easy enough to be grouchy When there ' s no cause to be that, But give me the guy Who, when things go awry, Can grin, as he goes up to bat. The first periodical since the armistice has arrived at Paris from Berlin, October 18, — an art publication. There is no sign of it ' s having been tampered with by any allied authority, but it was more than a week on the way.
