After Mr. Bickett's address and a
beautiful musical selection had been

for dinner. The patrons of the
school spread a bountiful, attractive
and hunger satisfying dinner on the
.grounds and all present seemed to

was left for another round.
At 2:30 p. m. the crowd reas

to a Jively debate by the junior de

'The Oaks". The guests were met
by the hostess and ushered into the
parlor, which was dantily decorated
with prink and white. After a brief
business session the guesta enjoyed
general conversation while they were
busily engaged in doing various
