participated in the skit, Hamlet, Oh, Hamlet, Where Have You Been?”, which proved very entertaining. A group of girls sang two songs accompanied by Gloria Giv- son playing the flute. We had a Christmas Party on the last Friday before vacation. Names were exchanged beforehand so everyone received a joke or present. We saw many of the Christ- mas carols also. On Friday morning Clayton Placey exhibited and talked about K-rations and showed various insignia. Inella Brock, of the Spars, visited music class and told us what singing meant to the Spars. DANCES School dances, held in the clubhouse, have been suc- cessful throughout the year. The Freshman Reception was held September 15 and was followed by a number of dances sponsored by the following classes: Junior High dances—Sept. 18, Feb. 9 Senior dance—Sept. 29 Junior dances—Oct. 20, April 6 Home Ec. dance—Nov. 17 Dances were also held after the Junior and Senior plays. Music was furnished by the Juke Box. We wish to thank Mrs. Rowe, Mrs. Gibson, Miss Tip- ping and Mr. and Mrs. King, who gave their time to act as chaperons to make these dances successful. HOME ECONOMICS The Home Economics Class has undertaken many worthwhile activities this year which include fixing a sup- ply cabinet for hot lunch, cleaning the lunch room, paint- ing the girls’ basement, and adding a few furnishings. These improvements are greatly appreciated by the students
