The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1915-04-03

By far the largest and most sue
cessful social event of the week was
the now famous coed party which
was planned by Miss Hoover and
cleverly carried out by the universe
ty girls The numerous skits and
feats were received with a storm of
applause, and, if any doubt existed
before that girls can have great jol-
LITIGATION without the aid of boys.
that doubt was forever dispelled on
last Saturday evening. The gymnas-
ium has never been the scene of a
merrier or more original party.
The showers during the past week
have doubtless caused many young
maid to sigh over the sad prospect of
not being able to christen her brand
new Easter bonnet tomorrow, but the
youngsters who expect to hunt East
er eggs out of doors will consider
themselves the real martyrs if Jup-
tier Pluvius continues to soak the
den hooks where the nimble Easter
bunny is wont to lay the multi-color-
ed Easter greetings.
The vanity that makes adults re-
main away from services unless they
have new garments to display is so
shocking as to be not at all amusing.
On the other hand the eager interest
of a fresh-faced girl in her new rib
bons and coat for Easter Sunday are
somehow an endearing sight. 1t seems
a harmless weakness that only makes
the older, graver folk realize how en-
tirely youths charm resides in the
fact of youth, and how little any deck
ing out can enhance the charm of
modest girlhood.

by Miss Hoover. The gym" wore the
festive air of mardi gras celebration.
and the color and variety of costumes
made watching almost more fun than
dancing. 1t seemed as if every imagin-
able character were represented from
gay cavaliers and somber quakers, to
motley clowns and very realistic little
boys, from stately Juliets to gypsies
and circus riders. 1t was astonish-

Interspersed between dances were +
some very clever stunts, the first of
which was shadow play by the
faculty women Miss Brashear read
"Lochinvar" and the others acted it
out so that, by an arrangement of

a great deal of amusement. Some of
