As usual all enjoyed themselves and pronounced the evening all too short. Mr. A. Mann, '23, Mr. F. Davidson, '20, Mr. L. Hill, '24, Mr. E. Wolstenholme, '24, were present. The decorations in the parlor were of red and gold with hearts attached at each crossing of the streamers, which ran the length and breadth of the room. In the corner stood a table lamp which cast a soft glow over the entire room. In the other two rooms the decorations were of black and gold. Best of all, however, and what appealed most strongly was the soft, warm glowing blaze in the \fireplace.\ This room is always the haven of many couples at the end of a dance. The Scarlet Serenaders played such snappy pieces as to fairly give wings to the feet of the dancer?. Everyone seemed to be having \the time of his life,\ and so they were from all reports. Refreshments were served and at midnight with weary feet but light hearts the dancers turned homeward wishing that the evening were only beginning. Senior Class The programs-for Moving Up Day and Com- mencement Exercises have been carefully planned so as to bring the fullest measure of enjoyment and satisfaction.
