The btnquet was sponsored by tha English VI1-B Club who bad aa their guests the other senior English classes, which, of course; Included every member ot the senior class. In all there were sixty-five persons pres ent which included the principal' ot the high school and the orchestra. Previous to the banquet all seniors met, much to the surprise of some in the music room of the high " school - building. There they enjoyed a splen didly arranged and executed program. Charles Thurston, president of tho entertalnlug club, was in charge of the program. The first number was a selection by the high school orchestra followed by a skit entitled, "Tbe Learned Family.' This last was high ly humorous and elicited much ap plause. Those members ot the Eng lish VII D Club who took part in this part of the program were: Lucien -Cobb, Clarice Peters, Mabel Kronke, Hilda Common, Nova Lough, Carmen Attorbury, Vivian Orcutt and Dale Smith. , Next followed a delightful solo by Gertrude Wlckham. Miss Rosa B. Parrott followed this with one of thosa stories which have long since characterized her aa a splendid story teller. After another number by the orchestra the meeting was de clared adjourned to the banquet room. Long banquet tables, neatly ar ranged, were laid with the correct number of covers and soon hungry and hannv seniors surrounded them. Roll call for the host-class was called and answered with a short poem about each of the visitors much to the embarrassment of some and delight of others. The roll call was followed throughout the entire luncheon period by toasts given by various club mem bers. Miss Parrott and Principal Johnson were also called upon for toasts and gladly responded. Through'. out the whole banquet hour the sen iors were very obviously in the high est of spirits and each expressed him self as having the best time ever. These English clubs, It may be well to explain, are composed of the mem bers of tbe EngllBh classes In 8enlor English, under the instruction of Miss Rosa B. Parrott.
