WHOOPEE!
And that’s exactly what is was
when the Juniors entertained the
seniors Thursday night, April 1.
The annual Junior-senior ban-
quet was held in the basement
of the Methodist church and
never has any scene reflected so
much galty, fun and general
pleasure.
The decoration motif was col-
onial. The tables were arranged
wlthJacy dollies and UU candles.
The place cards, containing the
menu and program, were clever
I''..Me scenes of the covered wag-
on days. Petite waitresses ' l®:
hoop' skirts,' lace and flounces
presented all the ladles with cor-
sages of violets.
The menu consisted of an en-
Uee of pineapple Juice, followed
by the main course of white
meat of chicken on toast, green
beans, deviled eggs, gelatin fruit
t>alad, latticed potatoes and Dut-
ttied rolls. Iced tea accompan-
ied this course. Desert consUst-
-xt of Bluebird special ice eream Qoldthwalte got
a view of school boys and girls
decked out In all their glory. And
the girls had an opportuMty to'
show- off their new evening
dresses.
The members of the senior
class would like to give the jun-
iors all their thanks and a rous-
ing cheer for giving them the
grandest evening probably any
claA: ever had.

upon the commission of Don

appointment, but his commission
