the courses the members of the so
ciety entertained themselves with a
large reportoire of choice songs, of
which the most popular appeared to be
“ Oh Home Ain’t Nothin’ like This.”
The vocalists sang with so much en
thusiasm that they made the welkin
ring—also the dining room. After the
last course had been cleared away
there followed a succession of bright
and witty toasts including the follow
ing: . “ The Winner” by Mr. Wirtz;
“ The Coach” by Mr. Russell Bates,
“ The Debaters” by Mr. Gates, and
“ Our Friends the Enemy” by Mr.
Thompson. Mr. Edgar Meresse spoke
in behalf of the “ Has-Beens” and Mr.
Peters responded to the clamor for a
speech. Mr. Smith discussed “ The
Future of Gamma Sigma,” Mr. Gilbert
“ The Philos” and Mr. Hugh Sparks
gave the closing toast “Gamma
Sigma.” The party broke up and the
diners returned to their homes with
many pleasant memories and a loyalty
even greater than before for old
Gamma Sigma.

in three months, these dances are one
of the leading social functions of our

until twelve o’clock, when they re
turned to their homes, agreeing that
the last Students Dance was a decided
success.
