The Hallowe’en Party
(Herald’s Special C. C. News Service)
The much anticipated Hallowe’en
party came off last Friday night. It
was announced that the doors would
open at eight o'clock and trouble to be­
gin immediately. The four different
rooms were decorated to represent
Earth, Purgatory, Hades and Heaven.
The entertainment, decorations, and
characters in each room carried out the
idea which the room represented. The
guests were admitted one or two at a
time. At the entrance they came face
to face with a spooky looking skull.
This they had to salute as the skull and
cross bones is the emblem of the class
of '17. An usher now took charge of
them and they were taken upstairs to
earth where an old witch told their for­
tunes. On their departure from earth
they werff blindfolded and escorted by
Death to Purgatory. Here Belzebub,
Satan’s favorite imp, subjected them
to an account of their sins and giving
each a beauty mark sent them to
Hades. In Hades, Satan nimself took
charge of them. After a short period
of torture they were allowed to escape.
Beginning with this year, a Hal­
lowe’en party is to be given annually
by each succeeding senior class. It is
given in the high school building for
the high school students.
Some games were played in thg lower
hall until the guests were called to the
laboratory where a lunch consisting of
sandwiches and coffee was served. The
next thing after refreshments an as­
sembly was called upstairs into rooms
I and II (which represented Heaven
and Earth respectively) where Alfred

This Company is anxious to see that all lines owned by
other parties and connected with its switchboards give effi­
cient service. Where the owners of rural lines are respon­
sible for their upkeep, we want to cooperate with them.
All lines require a thorough overhauling occasionally if the
best service is to be obtained. We recommend that every
line be overhauled at least once a year, add that at least one
experienced telephone man assist in this work. This cost will
be more than offset by the improved service.
If owners of rural telephone lines are experiencing trouble,
we will appieciate their taking the matter up with us. We
will gladly do what we can toward helping improve the line
conditions.
