Christmas Party An annual party, where the girls learned who had been sending them those cakes, pies, candy, letters, and other tokens of friendships, so mysteriously signed "Your Secret Pal," was held at the home of Eleanor Bull, December 20. A beautiful Christmas tree, all trimmed with twinkling lights welcomed the girls. Packages of all sizes lay beneath the tree's protecting branches. Games of various kinds in keeping with the season were played. The girls joined in singing old familiar carols. Gifts were unwrapped and many a girl was surprised when she learned the name of her "Secret Pal." A delicious lunch of fruit jello, little crescent cakes, and hot cocoa was served. Fav- ors, small candles to throw out little flames of Christmas light, were given the girls. Guess Who and Who-Else The annual mock wedding of the Y. W. was held at the Alford Gym at 8:00 P.

The bride—And-who-Else—entered on the arm of her father— Luella Robe—follow- ed by the little ring-bearer—Master Lois Bradley—carrying the ring in a daffodil.
