JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET On Saturday evening, April 23, the Junior class entertained the Senior class with a formal banquet given in the dining hall. The hall was beauti fully decorated in rose and gray, the Senior colors. The tables were placed in three rows the entire length of the dining hall, and were decorated to carry out the Junior colors, green and white. The waiters were dressed In blue coats and white trousers, while the waitresses wore solid white di’esses with green and white aprons and caps. At 6:45 the Juniors and Seniors of both the College and Academy as sembled in the auditorium where they were delightfully entertained by a mock wedding, presented by the stu dents of the Academic department. After this, the college students formed in a line and followed Mr. P. C. String- field, honorary member of the Senior class. Into the dining hall. Here the receiving line, composed of officers of C-I class and several fac ulty members gave each student a hearty welcome. When those present had been con. ducted to their assigned places, Ray mond Long, president of Junior class, delivered his speech of welcome, to which R. Festus Welch, Senior class president, gave a response. The first course was served, during which the C-I orchestra gave some excellent music. Next came a toast to the faculty, by E. L. Bradley. This brought forth a humorous, instructive, and altogether delightful response from Mr. Stringfield. During the second course, the C-I quartet, composed of Messrs. W. S. Hughes, Edward Harrell, Frank Kirby, and G. T. Cornwell, rendered a beauti ful selection. As an encore they sang two very- snappy pieces which met with hearty applause. A toast to the trustees, by C. H. Sullivan, received an instant re sponse by Mr. Gibbs of Mars Hill. The third course was served, during which the orchestra again played. Then came the address given by Mr. L. M. Tjee. During the last course, a play was given by several members of the Junior Class. This play portrayed, in part, the lives of some of the Seniors ten years hence.

Fun! Y'es, the Clios had fun April 14. Several interesting numbers were given, but the outstanding feature of the program was the Old Maids’ Con vention. The old maids were: Gilma Baity, Maryon Hoffman, Myrtle Barnette, Myr tle Blevens, Luna Cranflll, Edith King, and Emma Hartsell. Different ways of attracting the at tention of bachelors, young men. single men, and married men were discussed. The continuous powdering of the nose and winking of the eye were decided to be essential. Encouraging reports were made by all the delegates at the convention. Several of the clubs had not been very successful; but two of the clubs had succeeded in getting three ladle.s mar ried within ten years. The ladies discussed changing the name of the convention. It was voted on and in the future it shall be known as “The Ladies-in-Wating Society.” After several .matters of business were negotiated, the president of the conven tion asked all the ladies who had dates for the evening to stand. Only one lady responded to the call. Miss Myrtle Bar nette. It was rumored that she had an engagement with a member of the fac ulty. “The Ladies-in-Waiting" adjourned to “doll up" for the Bachelors’ Banquet that was to be given in the O. E. Sams dining hall that evening.
