HAMLINE COLLEGE,

1t has been rather lively week So
cially in comparison with the quiet ones
which have been the rule for a month
past. but it is not often that holiday
comes so OPPORTUNITY as does Good
Friday, giving two whole days for rec
reation, and the college classes were not
slow to take advantage Of this Oppor-
tunity. The senior ladies inaugurated
festivities Tuesday evening by very
select little reception given to the gem
tlemen of their number and few others
more favored than ordinary mortals.
The music room on the third floor, to-
gether with the small library rooms ad-
joining, were utilized for the occasion,
and were made to look very pretty in
deed by the good taste and nimble
fingers of the ladies. Misses Morgan
and Clark received. One of the excit-
ing features of the evenings fun was
huge bread pan filled with all sorts of
horrid little animals, with strings at
tached, each one present being
ceive as souvenir of the even
ing one of the hideous things
there was snake among them-only
make-belieye, of courSe-but it fell to
the lot OF one of the gentlemen, and one
of the senior girls triumphantly re-
marked afterwards, Even he was
afraid of it, Refreshments were
served in the library. to which full JUS
tice was done, and afterwards five of
the young ladies created diversion bv
appearing clad in Sombre senior robes,
masked, waiting to be identified. It
was rather hard work to do it, but some
of the gentlemen succeeded better than
could have been imagined. Those pres
ent were Misses Dunlap, Albertson,
Clark, Morgan, Palmer, Seegar, Stew
ems; Messrs. Farrar, Lord, Norton,
Bean, Maxwell, Judson.

other, Thursday evening, in the same
rooms used by the Seniors, with the adj

areception room. The principal amuse-
ment was spelling, and it is needless to
say that the ladies carried off all the
honcrs. The party was given in honor
of Miss Gertrude Davis, one of the most
popular ladies of the class, but who is

and though rather an impromptu af-
fair in every way, was yet thoroughly
enjoyed by all present. The full class
