YW.CANotes pHERB have been parties and par- JL ties, but never before such a party for genuine fun as was that given un der the name of "A May Carnival" on last Tuesday night for the girls of the Young Women's Christian Association. The carnival parade was announced for 9 o'clock, and a peep behind the scenes shortly before that hour found the Young Women's Christian Association social committee busy with pins, scis sors, old duds and newspapers trans forming girls Into all sorts of charac ters. Many ox the costumes made en tirely of newspapers were works of art. In the parade different departments of the Young Women's Christian Asso ciation work were represented. In the fore ranks came the cafeteria. Four girls dressed as cooks wheeled a serv ing table covered with flowers, in the center of which was a large pan of doughnuts. These with "weinies" which formed necklaces for the girls were thrown to the onlookers. Follow ing the cooks came the band with pots and pans for instruments. Small fruit baskets trimmed with the new Spring vegetables made excellent caps for this delegation. Six girls each in cap arid gown with a candle in her hand represented the Young Women's Christian Association dormitories. Grotesque figures with rubber type writer covers for their heads danced for the commercial department. Perhaps the most artistic float was the May pole float in charge of the re ligious department. Seated in a little wagon drawn by Miss Wicher and her companions dressed as boys in knick erbockers was the May queen carrying the May pole, the streamers of which were held by attendants on either side. The toot of a horn announced the ar rival of an automobile, the wheels of which were open umbrellas which were vigorously twirled to give action to the float, which was in charge of Miss Corey. With the strains of the wedding march, the announcement was made that the Young Women's Christian As sociation bridal party was about to en ter and later, as the bride and her at tendants were about to leave the room, the call came: "Is there a bridegroom in the audience?" The queen of the car nival of course was there with her at tendants, smiling and bowing to th enthusiastic crowd. The dancing Topsies was one of the special features of the programme and the leader of the little pickaniny danc ers was a certain Miss Illackwell, well known in Young Women's Christian As sociation circles. - When the hilarity was at its height the entrance of a tall, stalwart police man caused no small commotion. The whole crowd was arrested' for disturb ing the peace and all were sentenced to eat ice cream and cake. This was the last indoor social gath ering for the season. A launch party is announced for next Saturday. IJridse-Lishting System to Be Fixed.
