CLEVER DECORATING

Shades OF trigonometry, Latin, Al
zebra and German have been Danish
ed from the Keokuk high school. The
building has blossomed into VERT
able garden of beauty and color under
the guiding hands of the junior class.
1t is as If some fairy had waved her
wand over the long halls, or some
GENT had rubbed an Aladdin's lamp.
The occasion for this transformation
Is the juniors banquet and farewell
to this senior class which will be held
this evening.
Although restricted to the use OF
the two halls and two small rooms,
the juniors have accomplished a re-
suit which bids fair to outshine the
efforts of previous classes. They have
made the two long corridors of the
high school exceptionally beautiful.
On entering one is greeted by the
school monogram in block letters.
Myriads of streamers OF green and
white. the senior colors, form a canopy
over the short stairway to the hall
floor. Here a garden spot has been
made out Of the usually sober hall
ways.
A fountain plays in the middle. and
straight ahead is big white TX" out
lined in green electric light globes.
To the left as one enters, Is lattice
work in green and white, and arched
entrances lead to a cozy corner OF
the hall fitted with furniture and thu
floor covered with rugs. At the Eighth
street end Of the hall is long lat
tice work of green and white. and
in the corner here cascade tumbles
down from its rocky height to the
ferns below.
