AT seven O'Clock 50 people sat down
in Odd Fellows hall to an elegant BAN
quet, prepared and served by the ladies
of the Episcopal church. Toastmaster
Ollie Thorson, Secretary McReavy, and
the members of the school board sat
at the head of the table and the grad
uating class and faculty were seated
at their right and left, the other alumni
members taking their places in order.
Mr.. Thorson, the POSTMASTER, read
several written and telegraphic COM
nun cations from a number of gradu-
ates of other years, which told some :.
thing of the work which each of the
individuals is accomplishing. These
communications were very interesting
and greatly enjoyed by all present.
Mr.. Thorson also gave brief his
tory of the first school in Glenwood
lSprings. Superintendent s. j. Staples
and j. c. Schwarz, member of the
school board, were called upon for
few remarks and each emphasized the
value of good schools to the community.
The following program was then
given from representatives of the fol-

Mrs. r. P. Coulter of New Castle,
in representing the class Of 1891, re-
called the school life of years ago, tell
ing something of the hardships that
were necessary to gain an education at
that time.
One Of the most interesting numbers
of the program was the history of the
class of 1917, written in poetic form
and read by Miss Erma Hubbard. It
brought forth much laughter from the
listeners and was literally applauded.
Following the banquet new officers
were elected for the ensuing year, G.
l.. Hubbard being elected president;
Rollin Smith, first vice-president; Erma
Hubbard, second vice-president; Esther
Weyand, secretary, and Helen Patter.
son, treasurer.
Then followed the part of the pro-
gram which had so eagerly (f) been an
ticipatcd by the class of '2l. Because
of the lack Of time only few of the
were subjected to the -initia-
ton ceremony. Chalmer Noren, Alfred
Hadley and Dominick Gallo each took
his medicine with true sportman's
grace, but all were glad when they
passed beyond the realm Of novitiates.
The party then Adjourned to Armory
hall, which was beautifully and appro-
priatcly decorated with pennants, ten
mis- requests and colored light in addi-
tion to the regular American Legion
decorations. With Red = orchestra fur
nishing the music, dancing was enjoyed
by a large number until late hour,
and it was declared the best ard most
successful dance Of ths season.
The s6air was decided sueesss from
every point Of view, and u l. hoped
that II nay be an annual event an&
