The Juniors Hold A Reception For
The Seniors With The Faculty
And The Board As Invited

mencement week in the Lewes
schools was the Junior Senior re-
ception in honor of the senior class
with the board of education and fac
ulty as guests.
The auditorium, by the busy hands
of the juniors under the direction of
Miss Cronmiller, class dean, was
transformed into a large reception
hall. Potted plants, beautiful lamps
and lighting, coy restful chairs,
and burning candles-all breathed
an air of restfulness pleasantness
and welcome. Then too, the pleasing
music of an orchestra composed of
Mrs. Albertson at the piano, Doctor
Robinson, viOlinist, Doctor Wiltbank,
cornetist, and Mr.. Marshall, clarinet
list. completed the necessary atmOs-
phere for a delightful evening.
Those who stood with Mr.. Brinser
in the receiving line were: Allen
Vessels, president of the senior
class; Miss Isabelle Ross, dean of
the senior class; Miss Helena Ter
den, president of the junior class,
and Miss Josephine Cronmiller. dean
of the junior class.
By an ingenious method of label
ing. each person soon became ac-
uuainted in a novel fashion. While
this unseemingly mirth was in pro-
gress. John Vessels of the junior
class reminded the guests of SER
ious yet pleasant duty which he had
to perform. This little duty was the
presentation, to the members of the
faculty, of little tokens which, to use
Burns happy phrase-to give the
faculty the power to see themselves
as others see them. Mr.. vessels hui
NOR was of the first water.
A one act playlet in which Theo-
dore Hazard, Coleman Willard, En-
lily Joseph, Robert Legares, William
Ingram and Elsie Beebe took part, |
added very much to the evenings
pleasantness.

evealed the stage in a setting of an
