Cartoon for Tar Baby On Monday morning at 10:30 o’clock the College Auditorium was the scene of the Class Day excrcises of the Senior Class. The Sophomores, clad in organdy of various colors, and bearing the Daisy Chain on theiv shoulders, marched into the chapel singing the Daisy Chain song which lias been handed down from the class of 1917 to the succeeding classes which gi-ad- uate during the odd years. An aisle was formed by the Sophomores through which the Seniors marched, wearing white or gandy frocks. Tile Program began with songs to Alma Mater, to the classes of ’19 and ’23 and with their responses. The Play presented by the Senior Class was entitled ‘ ‘ The Forest of Knowledge. ’ ’ The Plot centered around the seai’ch for tlie Stone of the Wise, composed of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness. Those engaged in the search were the Seer, representing the class of ’21 as Freshmen: the Hearer, the class as Sophomores; the Poet, the class as Juniors; Perseverance, the class as Sen iors. The first tliree persons failed in their search because tlieir senses, on which tlioy relietl, were ruined by their evil geniuses. Per.soverance also was tempted, hut was called bach to her duty by her good Fairy the nuiscot of the class. After this her eyes whieii liitherto had been l)lind, were opened, and at tlie end of the rahibow, she saw the pot of gold wiiieli contained the diplomas of tlie class of '21—their passports in!o the world, to live, to love and to serve. At the conclusion of the play the Sopho mores again formed an aisle with the Daisy Chain through winch tl\c Seniors passed, all singing Alma Mater. FRESHMEN WIN CHAMPION SHIP IN TENNIS MATCH The championship teiniis game was play ed Tuesday afternoon at 4:30, the score be ing 6-1, in favor of the freshmen. Annie Louise Reese and Gladys Gibbs played for the freshmen, and Sybil Smith and Edna Eai'le Hinton for the senioi*s. One of the most enjoyable events of the season was the delightful camp-breakfast given on Wednesday morning to the Sen iors by Mr. John Henry Williams, a mem ber of the faculty of State College. The Seniors, accompanied by Miss Campbell and Miss Law, a.ssembled on the campu.« promptly at seven-thirty ])repared for a good time. The street car conveyed the merry crowd to Lassiter’s Mill, aiid there breakfast was served in true camp shle. The menu eonsisted of grapefruit, bacon and eggs, “liot-dogs,” rolls and coffee. Every one was in liigh spirits and Mr. Wil liams proved to be a most entertaiuing host. After breakfast the Seniors tried to express their appreciation by songs and yells. Then the dishes, knives and forks \vere ])aeked up and the crowd started back to school tired but happy. We all join with the Seniors in saying “three cheers for Mr. Williams.” MISS CAMPBELL DELIGHTFULL'^ ENTERTAINS SENIORS. On Thursday night, ten o’clock, May 12, all the Seniors gathered around their festal board and enjoyed for the last time an ex clusive feast prepared for tliem by tlieir good Fairy Godmothers, Old Jlother Ilub- bartl and The Old Woman Wlio Lives in a Shoe. One would have thought that they were a. group of fairies themselves; for they presented a very bewitching picture in their gay kimonas. However, those who witnessed this gala occasion knew from the way the coeoanut cake, punch and other goodies disappeared that they were forty- tliree veiy hungry mortals. After tlie feast they sang their tluuiks to tlie donor of this treat, and them with happy hearts disap peared to their respective places in dream land. Mrs. Alfred Ilarriss, of Charlottesville, Virginia, is hex’o to spend Coumencement with Misses Moultrie Drake, Louis Pow ell, Evelyn Bridges, Mary White and Bert Laurens.
