The Gavelyte, April 1911

THE GAVELYTE, clared Winifred. "Come on, girls, let's do it all alon . Boys, get ready for our dinner. The circle will not be broken.'' The girls took a straight road for the country. Winifred explained as they went that from the top of the college hill she had seen a buggy drive out that same road. "I came to the conclusion, girls, that that horrid Dan Hughes took Jim out to their old farm and hid him on the premises somewhere. You know there is no one living there now. A least we can go search the place for it isn't a long walk and it r;ay pay us. Let's search the barn first for the house will be locked, but we'll break in there if we have to. I'm desperate and I"l1 take the blame if Dan has us up for house-breaking. Betty, you and Coreen go look in the barn. He must be in one of those places." But the girls came back to the yard with long faces; Jim had not been found. "Do you suppose he is in that little corn crib? I am going to look anyway. I'm bound not to be defeated." Winifred ran and opened the door and then gave a scream of delight. "Here he is, girls! What did I tell you? Oh, Jim, you poor old hero! But the g.old and white still waves, so you suffered in a good cause. Hurry up or we will miss that dinner. Aren't you hungry? I'm almost famished." "Don't talk to me about heroes. What did I do lying out here not moving a muscle? And I miss.ed the very best part of it all and don't get to share the glory." "Yes you do, Jim, too. We're all proud of you. Remember the m_otto in the college hall, 'They also serve who only stand and wait.' You were lying down while you waited but it's all the same. So don't say you didn't do any– thing, for the thought of your capture led the boys t') victory. Come on, it's four-thirty now." An hour later when the four girls entered the dorm parlor where nine very blue boys were waiting, Jim was in the midst of them. At sight of him they gave three tremendous yells for Marsh, and Marsh responded by a hearty ''Three cheers for our Senior Relief Corps.'' · Easter Senior Dinner. With the approach of the Easter season and the spring vacation came the usual restlessness of the Senior class which culminated in a Senior dinner given at the beautiful country home of Miss Bertha Stormont. The color scheme of old gold and white, the class colors, were carried out in the decorations. The center piece was a basket of grass containing a hen and chicken!'i, and small yellow chickens, easter eggs, and white rabbits, were used as table decorations, and also as dainty souvenirs. Sweet scented narcissuses were the fbwers used on this O(!Cas:on. The table was lighted with a candelabra containing yellow candles. The following menu was served: Tomato Bouillon Fruit Compte Pressed Chicken Creamed Potatoes Pea Patties Omelet Ground Cherries Buns Butter Pine Apple Ice Cake Candy The evening w2s spent by this jolly crowd of Seniors around the cozy open fire-place, and will long be remembered after the class has joined the ranks of the alumni.
