1924 Cedrus Yearbook

The CEDRUS 1924 The Halloween Party mr....•••••••••••••••• 410.1••••• ANHIMPOIP HIS IS AN ANNUAL PARTY given one year by the Y. M. C. A., and the following year by the Y. W. C. A. This year the girls were entertained by the boys at a masquerade ball held in the Gym. Many funny and interesting persons were present, and a prize was given to the best character represented. Mr. Donald Wickerham, dressed as a woman, and pushing his wife in a small doll buggy, kept the crowd guessing who they were and rightfully won the prize. Before the crowd unmasked a flash-light picture was taken which was very good. Many interesting games were played and two gypsies were there to tell for- tunes. While all sat frightened in the dark, Mr. Markle told a most interesting ghost story, which was vividly illustrated. Delicious and bountiful refreshments were served with pre-Volstead cider al- ways at hand. After spending a very enjoyable evening we repaired to our homes at an hour within the limits of the faculty rule. The Girls' Banquet The lady members of the faculty decided that the girls of the College should be given a few lessons in etiquette. A committee was appointed with Miss Koehler as chairman, to plan our first lesson which was to be a six o'clock dinner served in the Community Hall. After much talking, trying to decide which evening gown we should wear,and after the committee had had a hot debate in deciding how to lay the silverware properly on the table, about sixty attended the banquet. A three course dinner was served in just the proper way and all ate with fear and trembling. The out of town guests were Dr. Whitney, New York City; and Supt. and Mrs. Aultman, Xenia, Ohio. The affair was very successful and will long be re- membered by the girls. - ••••1•••••• „ ‘Vl arrs— •••• • Sixty-eight _
