Philogians' Society Feast.
An old swinging bridge, just north
of the city, overhung with dense
green foliage and surrounded by a
soft carpet of ferns and short grass,
was as picturesquely beautiful a spot
as could possibly have been chosen
for the D. ' H. S. Philogian society's
feast on Wednesday night. Miss Jean
Kuykendall (one of the chaperones),
was undoubtedly mistress of cere
monies, spending most of her time
building fires, toasting marshmat
lows, reading and introducing jokes.
During the evening she read "Pigs is
Pigs," after which Miss Lillian Fel
lows read "Fleas is Fleas,' by the
same author, both of which caused a
great deal of merriment. This pop
ular young women's society is strict
ly a feminine organization, composed
I of about 37 co-eds of the Dallas High.
One of the rules of the society Is -that
'no male members shall be admitted,
i to ridicule its secret workings. It
! has been a decided success this year,
most of the girls being faithful and
regular in their attendance at 'its
weekly 'meetings, held on Monday
nights. Each girl has taken her
tnrn" on the different programs pre
sented, which were highly interesting
'and entertaining, as well as educa
tional. The celebrated debating team
!of the school was taken from the
ranks of this exclusive society. The
jchaperones Wednesday night were:
I Miss O'Connell, Miss Cora Rossiter,
; Miss Marguerite 'McCosky, and Miss
Jean Kuykendall. The members of
'jthe society and guests were: Misses
.Miriam Hart, Lola Ramsey, Susie
