PUBLIC SCHOOL NOTES

Friday evening Ethel MALONE, Carl KIRK and Vera NELSON entertained the seniors and high school teachers at the home of the latter. The evening was pleasantly spent with puzzles and various other games. Unplanned for amusement was provided for in rescuing the ice cream. The senior colors were used in the decorations and the color scheme was carried out in the refreshments.

Saturday, at 4:30 p.m., Wilma ROBERTS, Bessie BALDWIN and Merlyn RAWLINGS entertained the seniors, teachers and janitor and wife in a novel way. First the guests met at the ROBERTS home. Punch and wafers were served. Then after following the leader by a roundabout way the crowd finally came to the GALLUP home. There they listened to a Victrola concert for about an hour. Many pleasing numbers were given, among which the "Sextette" from Lucia and "Uncle Josh" seemed most popular. The next move was at the RAWLINGS home where a dainty three-course dinner was served on tables tastily decorated with bridal wreath and ferns.

Monday evening the seniors gave the return banquet to the juniors and high school teachers at the library auditorium. The rooms were decorated with pennants and the juniors' colors, champagne and red. The table was plus shaped and in the center was a large bouquet of red and cream roses. Miss KENNEY acted as toastmistress and called on several who made splendid replies. The only musical number on the program was a song by the senior girls' quartette. The waiters were Gordon BECK, Lorenz POSCHEL, Gerald BENNETT, Bob LORENZ, Gerald BARRETT and Rob CONRAD. Miss Edna SELLERS, a former member of the senior class was the guest of honor.
