CHRISTMAS GIFTS. When Santa Olaus visited Westport this year, he left at The Herald office the following gifts: Mr. Underwood's stock- ing was large enough to contain the plans and specifications for the new school. The Seniors were each presented with a dic- tionary of words of one syllab-le. He brought each Junior a large-sized Roose- velt bear with a baby blue sash. The Soph- omores received knitted caps which will expand to suit the swelling heads. The Freshmen's gift came in four parts and arrived before Christmas. It was made to fit their size so as to give them famil- iar surroundings. They will soon be oth- cially presented the annexes. The faculty were given a complete set of substitutes. who are to perform the work, but not re- ceive the pay. The Round Tables were presented with a set of scenery for the newly-revived stock company. He left the Clionians a new set of Glee Olub songs. The I. K. Bfs pleaded fervently for a gentleman member of the faculty as adviser, but Santa denied them and brought them mirrors. He left the De- baters a new subject for discussio-nz Re- solved, That the Debaters and I. K. Bfs should be consolidated. Mr. Snedeger was presented with four more stoves to take care of in the annexes. These gifts have been carefully stored a.way in T he Herald sanctum, and if they are not soon- er appropriated by their eager owners, will be distributed on Ohristmas morning. RECIPE FOR COMPOSITION CAKE. Take two tablespoonfuls of introduc- tion, three cups o-f events, some descrip- tion, a few quo-tations, and one-half cup of conclusion. Stir a quotation or two in with the introduction, add a pinch of description, and mix well with a pencil in a bowl of scratch -paper. Then put the events, with some quotations and description to taste, into another bowl, and stir until smooth. If both bowls of batter are en- tirely satisfacto-ry, put them into pans of thought, and bake until the testing straw of criticism will pass through freely, Next melt the conclusion in a small thought saucer, and after placing the sec'- ond layer upon the first, spread the con- clusion on with care, so as to give the cake a smo-oth appearance. .- Now investigate closely, and if noth- ing is wrong, transfer the finished product to a platter of theme-paper and serve. Wifllirwn Guzfhrie, 910, - The Seniors are mighty and tall, The Freshies are greenish and small, The Sophomores talk Like the cocks of the walk, But they canit touch the Juniors at all. :i.4,,d- in , f pr, hfgzh, lr.. -.4 .a:4.:.- EF-1-E--ui-E-ri ' ' 1.1-ff. 1
