quiet him down and make him
return to the fold with the oth-

which seemed to have met with
general approval. The cooks and
waitresses were swamped with
orders for suppers and the plates
were sold as fast as they could
be made up and served.
The lib:go booth was also very
popular, and was filled the most
of the opening. Other booths we’e
penny-pitching, seeing stars,
sketches drawn by the class art-
ist, hot dogs, cold drinks, the for-
tune tellers and a fish pond.
The hot dog ,makers and sell-
ers were probably the most un-
happy lot of the Carnival work-
ers. The hot dog stand had been
put up and decorated, and the
hot dogs ana buns had been pur-
chased, but, when the customers
began pouring in, the stove refus-
ed to work. As a last resort the
hot dogs were taken down to thei
Room Mothers at the Mexican
Supper booth, but the Room
Mothers, busy as bees, held their
ground, and refused to relinquish
their stoves. After the Mexican
suppers were all sold out the
hot dog makers took over there
and delicious hot dogs were
served from that booth.
About 10:30 the crowd began
to thin out, and a very happy
group of seniors began to relax
after a very successful carnival.
The Senior Class extends their
heartfelt thanks to the people
who came out and helped make
this Carnival a “roaring success”
and filled the tills to finance their
Senior Day trip in the Spring.
And to the merchants who help-
ed in various ways, they extend
special thanks.
