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.
