Senior Class rendered Reception
Thursday Evening.

One of the most pleasant remem-
brances of Commencement in the
memories of the class of 1914 as
they look back upon the events of
their last few days at p. A. will be
the reception rendered them by the
members of the Junior class. The
receiving line was made up of mem
bers of the Junior class, William
Meacham, pesident; Beryl Stewart,
secretary; treasurer, Harley Wilson;
Wylie Tiff and Bessie Coburn. Those
having charge of the wraps were
Misses Marion Slayton and Beulah
Sherwood, who also ushered the,
guests from the second to the third
floor. Misses Shirley Parker and
Alice Grout were stationed at the
entrance to Academy hall and
ushered them to the receiving line,
from thence to the seats provided
for them in the back of the hall.
This portion OF the hall was trans
formed into coy apartment by the.
use of art squares, couch covers, sofa
cushions, chairs etc., and here the.
guests were entertained. Instru-
mental numbers were given by
Harley Wilson and humorous
sketch was given by Mr.. and Mrs.
A. w. Ruff.
The hall was tastefully decorated
in the class colors, dark green and
white, and the effect was very
pretty. An arch made of evergreen
boughs was formed at the entrance
to the hall and streamers of green
paper extended from one electrolier
to another, while each light bore
shades cut of green and white crepe
paper to form very natural pond
lilies and suspended from the center
of this trimming was a large paper
pond lily. This trimming was used
in the center of the hall, which was
reserved for the serving of refresh
ments, the tables being arranged
with the faculty at one end of the
enclosure and the class on either
side. A similar decoration of green
and white was used over the part Of
the hall. where the guests were en-
tanned.
A four-course supper consisting of
chicken. rolls, saltines, salad, olives,
ice cream, cake and coffee were
served. Carnations were used as
the centerpieces on the tables and
place cards decorated in the class
coors were furnished. Music on
the Victrola was enjoyed during the
serving of supper.
Whittier Gates as president of the
Senior class expressed in behalf of
the Seniors it's appreciation for the
pleasure given the class through the
efforts of the Juniors, the Junior
class president responding.

+, DAYS In June

Mid.June has been associated in re-
markable way with the progress of polit
teal freedom in AngIo-Saxon lands. 1t
was on the 18th of June, 1915, that forty
allied barons of England, with four earls
as their leaders and an army to back
them compelled King John to sign the
Magma Charta at Runnimede. Though
this act of the king was annulled by the
Pope and in after years strong kings
continued to disregard some of it's pro-
visions, it has remained the great defense
of personal liberty in anglo-saXou lands.
1t declares that no person is to be de.
prived of life, liberty or prosperity save
on Judgment of jury of those who are
his equals.
In June, 1881, there was an uprising of
peasantry in the English county of Kent,
caused by the tyrannous and insulting
manner in which the tax-collectors forced
their claims upon the people. The up
rising was suppressed after the treacher-
Gus murder of its leader. Wat Tyler, in the
presence of the king. Richard II, near
Blackheath on the 18th day of June.
The 18th of June is always memorable
to Americans as the anniversary of the
Battle of Bunker Hill On almost the
fortieth anniversary of that battle, June
10, 1915. was fought the far greater
contest at Waterloo that completed the
ruin OF the hopes of Napoleon Bonaparte.

Court Notes

Mrs. Laird again occupies the stenog
rapher's desk and Miss Doris DeNio acts
as the clerks assistant.
H. M. Cornell, who was "side judge
twenty years ago, came up from Jeffer.
sonville, Just to see the wheels go
round"
w. M. Smith still retains the honor of
the Beau Brummel of the sheriff's depu-
ties, while "the smile that won't co me
off," is still with W. H. Jones
Among the lawyers from outside the
county in attendance upon court the first
day were Guy Hort on and V. A. Billiard
of Burlington, D. E. Porter and Guy
Hill of st. Tohnsbury, B. E. Billiard of
Hardwick, and H. F. Graham of Crafts
bury.
An interesting feature of the opening OF
court Tuesday was the presence of Col.
E. B. Sawyer, who was admitted to the
Lamoile County Bar in June 1S49-sixty-
FIVE years ago. The Colonel was also
present at the first term of court held in
this county in 1886 and is the only sur
vivor of those then present. The county
was organized in 1885 and the first clerk
was Philo G. Camp of Stowe, who
was clerk for twelve years. "who," the
the colonel says, never made record
unless called upon for a certified copy"
Afterwards the colonel was authorized
by the court to make up the records for
that period and he, with the assistance of
Miss Pennock, afterwards his wife, did
the work and did it we'll.
Another interesting feature" was the
presence of that member of 1.-THE old
guard" Wallace Parker of Cambridge
He was admitted in 1873 and is lust as
young as he used to be-" and in active
practice. There are many good years be-
fore him yet we all hope.

more than $50 victims every day in the
