COSTUMES UNIQUE AND PRETTY
Marked Masquerade at Goddard Sem
mary Saturday Evening.

Seventy-fve couples fell into line anC
| took up the fantastic trip around the
| floor at Goddard seminary Saturday
evening, when Bruces orchestra played
| the opening strains for the masquerade
dance given annually by the senior class
on the hill. To many members of the
| faculty who have witnessed occasions of
| a like nature in years gone by, the mas
| querade Saturday night eclipsed these
| former affairs in its riot of costumes,
| colors and wide variety of make.ups.
| The dance was held in the upper chapel
at the seminary and no pains We're
| spared in making the surroundings for
the evening as charming as possible.
| Three delightful cosy corners We're estab-
lished in different parts of the hall and
the walls were tastefully decorated with
banners of Goddard and other schools.
The grand march began promptly at s
O'Clock, and nearly every one of the $50
odd dancers on the floor were dressed in
costume. AT the end of the fourth fig
ure the entire company unmasked and
the judges awarded the prizes. Miss
Bradford's costume of a Spanish dane
ing girl received the unqualified approx
al of the judges for the first lady's
prize, and II. A. Averill, dressed in the
gRrb of a retired gentleman Of the early
'70's, was given the first award for the
men Mr.. Averill was the only member
of the faculty to be thus honored, all
though several Others came in for hon
orable mention.
The first prize for the girl student
making the most marked impression on
the judges was evenly divided between
Miss Avis keir and Miss ella Calef both
OF whom We're "dolled" out in baby
clothes This honor carried with it
number of complimentary tickets to the
Dreamland, generously donated for the
occasion by the manager. Bernard Hale
was awarded the first prize for boy
students costume. Mr. Hale was dressed
as Spanish gyspy woman and the dis
glise was so perfect that several young
men for obvious reasons were rather
astonished when the masquerader I'M
masked. The second prize went to Phil
lip Goodere, who impersonated "Sunbon-
net Sue
Throughout the evening and during
short intermission held in the middle of
the dance order, several of the young
women served delicious refreshments,
consisting of punch and waters. Among
those who attended the masquerade were
number of people from this and 9TH
err cities, as well as members of the
seminary alumni association.
