FRESHMEN INITIATED.

The initiation OF the freshmen un-
der the auspices Of the senior, jun
ior, and sophomore girls, ably assist
I'd by the young ms,. occurred at the
high school building Thursday even
ing and was greatly enjoyed by stu
dents and teachers. The reception
room was beautifully decorated for
the occasion with festoons of orange
and black, the school colors; and
with pennants Of score Of high
were artistically decorated with ap-
propriate notices complimentary to
the upper classes and supposedly in
structive to the freshmen. The fresh
men were placed under guard in the
hallway and were admitted blind
folded to receive the solemn oath Of
allegiance to the high school, to the
teachers and to the upper classmen.
Each Freshman solemnized his oath
by kissing the book of Webster three
times, at T for truth, at D for devo-
ton and at L for luck. Each third
time a dignified senior substituted
a pan Of flour for the book and the
freshman face arose in a halo Of
white. The Freshman was then re-
Quired to drink a toast to the school
and was considered a duly initiated
member of the Urion High school.
The girls served delicious refresh
ments, cocoa, cake, fruit and candies;
games were played, everyone had a
good time and the new folks got ac-
quainted.
Altogether the initiation was one
of the most delightful social gather
ings the school has had for a long
while and the young people who
planned it so successfully deserves
great credit. We trust that such oc-
casions may occur often. School life
when it includes such social pleas
ures. They will be happily recalled
in later years.
