SCHOOL BAzAR
FOR TR|PFUND
Local High School Seniors to
Use Proceeds for Trip to
Washington

What promises to be the most
elaborate bazar ever conducted in
this city will be held at the local
high school, Friday, February 16
under the auspices of the senior class
of the high school. The proceeds
will be added to the Washington
Trip fund.
Every year, the graduating class
travels to the national capital and
there sees the machinery of the gov
ernment in motion. The trip is high
iy educational besides being a social
success, as the entire expenses of
the trip would be a considerable bur-
den on the shoulders of most of the
members of the class. Various
forms of entertainments, muslcales,
ETC., are held during the school year.
So far this year, but one musical
has been held, namely, the Angelo
Patricolo concert. The city sup
ported this affair in grand fashion
and additional support is being
looked for during the bazar which
will be novelty. The general
committee in charge of the affair
is doing everything within it's pow
er to make it one to be long re-
membered. The faculty committee
ence Stauffer and Miss Rose Nc
Cormick.
The corridors of the high school
will be hardly recognizable after
senior artists get through putting up
their booths. There will be booths
of ali kinds and characters; there
being one for fancy novelties, ar
other with a chocolate booth with
pretty dairy maids assisting, a
grab bag and others too numerous
to mention. One of the features
will be a fortune telling tent which
will be situated in one of the cor
ners of the hall.
The class colors of gold and white
will predominate while the school
insignia of crimson and white will
be prominently displayed. Each
booth will have a color scheme
which will act as a magnet to draw
crowds to them. Besides the above
novel features in the corridors, the
auditorium will be the scene of a.
one act play entitled THE Florist
Shop" and a sketch by the embryo
Irish comedians" Kushinsky and
De Andrea, who are members of the
senior class. The actors in the
playet are being coached by Miss
floreBce Stauffer, head of the Eng
lish department. Miss Stauffer has
coached the Dramatic Club plays
with great success for the last few
years and the success of the one
act comedy is assured.
There will also be a clown dance
by a group of girls. The boy ex-
ponents of gymnastics will hold
forth in pyramid building while
Miss Sadie Miller will give several
declamations.
What will furnish the greatest
amusement and probably be the hit
of the evening will be the singing
Of topical songs, the words having
been written by members of the
senior class. These dittos have
been set to music Of popular pres.
ent day airs and they should liter.
ally bring down the house.
Last but not least will be the
Japanese tea room. This oriental
setting will be staged in the Domes-
tic science room. Dainty maids in
costume will act as floaters.
Tickets for the entertainment are
out and may be procured from any
member of the senior class.
