A very laughable farce program , rep resen tin g the class in reg u la r session, preceded a n u m b er of guessing contests and num erous u n iq u e diversions, and the en tire evening was devoted to so cial pleasures. T here was n o t a dull m om ent for any of the guests or others. A t an appointed tim e th e p resid en t, Roy C ourville, announced th a t it was in order for a procession to be form ed, headed by the S u p erin ten d en t and w ife, and all repaired to th e dom estic science d in in g hall for th e b an q u et. O u r beautiful dom estic science dining room never looked p rettier. Mrs. Brickell and her ju n io r class prepared th e splendid d in n er w hich was served by th e ju n io rs faultlessly.
