By Hazel Armstrong, Freshman Initiation The morning of On. 15 found the Sophomores all smiles, while the |xx r Freshies looked extremely down-hearted. That evening the Sophomores initiated the new-comers of the High School. We must admit, however, that the F’reshies were g xxl s|x rts and t x k their medicine with a smile and we congratulate the Sophomores on their cleverness. After the initiation, delightful refreshments were served and we are sure the Freshmen went home with light hearts, lx -lieving the Sophomores’ friendship worthwhile and every one acknowledging them splendid entertainers. Freshies Entertain On the evening of Nov. 6, the Freshmen entertained the whole school with a return party to the Sophomores. This event was the first party to be held in our new ( ymnasium. 1 he first part of the evening games were played, under the supervision of Miss Jones. Later on the music came and we spent the rest of the evening dancing. Delightful refreshments were served by the Freshmen girls. The evening was enjoyed by all and we considered the Freshies royal entertainers. Vagt Thirly-one
