Teacher, Alumni Reunion

At Milwaukee Reunion

A revival of the annual get-to-
gethor banquet of the alumni and
faculty of the River Falls normal
school, after a suspension Of ten
wears, was held at the Wisconsin
Teachers association convention IN
Milwaukee last week 1t proved a
great success.
Seventy-eight people, faculty mem
bcrs and graduates, gathered for the
banquet, which was held in the Mil
waukee Y. M. C. A. building at SIX
o'clock last Friday evening.
The arrangements had been per-
fected by Miss Laura Kellar, Univer-
sity School principal at Shorewood,
and Reynold Jensen, employed at the
Milwaukee Y. M. C. A. The organic
ing ability and leadership of these
two assured from the beginning the
success which the affair turned out
to be-
Sixty-sour graduates and fourteen
faculty members were present. The
graduates represented classes all the
way from 1882 to several from the
class of 1925.
Each of the faculty members and a
plumber of the graduates Were called
upon for words of greeting. The old
school songs and yells were INDUCED
in under such able leadership as
Reynold Jensen, Gilbert Anderson
and Percy Clapp.
There was no more enthusiastic
person in the group than Mr.. A. c.
Kriesel of the Glass Of 1882, now
teaching in Milwaukee. H. W. Kir-
cher, Glass of '96, City Superinten-
dent of Sheboygon; Mrs. John Hale,
go. and r. C. Winger, 'O4, were
among the enthusiastic present.
Ethel Lemmer De Wire, H. E. Hay
ward, Mary B. Mcmillan and Mrs.
Geo. B. Skogmo, all ex-faculty mem
bers, joined in the pleasurers of the
evening and contributed their bits.
In closing, all joined in expressing
their appreciation to Miss Kellar and
Mr.. Jensen, and We're unanimous in
the opinion that it was the best ever.
