The annual junior-senior banquet

worked out in blue and white, the

Dutch. A speech by Principal V. E.
Anderson was the main feature OF
the program. Mr.. Anderson has been
with the seniors through their high
school years. His speech first brought
out some of the impressions which
he had of the seniors in their fresh
man year. He finished by giving the
graduating class some good advice for
the future. Other features of the pro-
gram were as follows: a song by a
quartet Of girls, a tap dance, piano
duet, a guitar duet, violin solo, the
reading of the class will and pro-
phecy, and finally group singing OF
appropriate songs. Several juniors
and seniors were called upon for i'm
promptu speeches. Sigurd Buck, the
Junior class president, acted as toast
master and delivered the welcome ad-
dress, after which Ellen Smidt, the
senior class president, gave the re-
Spouse. The Junior class advisor,
