Suggestions ranged from the Clifton Cliffs to the Bermuda Islands. After due consideration Snider's Park, Springfield, was chosen and thence we journeyed that twentieth of May. It is needless to say we did have "eats" and lots of them, and the afternoon was spent in tennis, golf, and swimming as well as various amusements afforded in the park. Evening brought the close of another pleasant day for C.C. students. JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET OF 1926 On May the sixth, the Junior-Senior Banquet was held in the main dining hall of the Engineers' Club of Dayton. Fifty guests were seated at the large U-shaped table, which was cleverly decorated in the Senior colors, green and white. Three large baskets of American Beauty roses adorned the table. The favors were green and white crystal candy sticks made in the form of a tripod, holding small white place cards on the top. Tiny green baskets of mints on the white medallion were placed under the tripod. A very delicious four-course dinner was served by the club consisting of: Fruit cocktail; creamed chicken on patties, French fried potatoes, green lima beans, Parker House rolls, and butter; head lettuce with Thousand Island dressing; Neapolitan ice-cream, cake and coffee. Miss Marie Koehnen of Dayton gave a program of selections on the harp dur- ing the dinner hour. The program of the evening was suggestive of Browning's "Pippa Passes,"— morning, noon, and night. The toast, "Morning," representingthe Youth, was given by Miss Martha Dean,followed with a solo,"At Dawning," by Miss Stuckey. The "Noon," representing the Activity, was given by Prof. H. H.Smith, followed with a solo,"My Task," by Miss Burbick. "Evening," representing Retrospection, was given by Miss Dobbins,followed with a solo,"The End of a Perfect Day," by Miss Elizabeth Creswell. Dr. W. R. McChesney gave the concluding toast—the "Charge to the Classes." Mr. Carl Shank's, President of the Junior Class, acted as toastmaster. —E• C.
