they would give the boys a dose of

worried to death to find US gone,"
the girls reasoned.
At $3.50 am. the girls arrived
home, clomped into their respec-

best TO awaken a sleeping spouse.
That wasn't possible, because the
spouses weren't home yeti
Next morning one Of the girls
asked her husband
What time did you get home last
night, dear?"
"Oh, I think it was about $780,"
he replied off-hand.

Forum:

There have been some questions
about inviting underclassmen and
also the alumni to the junior prom.
Below we have asked four students
to give their opinions on the sub
ject
Raymond Rubard: | think a gen.
eral invitation should be made to
all alumni, because formerly some
were invited and others were over
looked | think freshmen and
sophomores should be allowed to
come if they pay dollar, as has
been the custom for several years.
| don't think they should let them
in free because this would cause too
big crowd at the prom. Besides,
the prom is supposed to be in hon
or OF the seniors, and If everyone
was admitted, it wouldn't be any
different from a public dance.
Patsy Manion: | think that all the
alumni that want to come for dol
lar, ought to be able to come.
also think the underclassmen ought
to be able TO come for the same
price. Last year the underclassmen
were invited and not many came, so
if the same thing happens this year
the juniors will at least be able to
say they invited them. The same
thing goes too for the alumni.
Joyce Morrill, | think the under
classmen should be invited to the
prom providing they pay the adj
mission because we would get just
as much enjoyment out of it as
some Of the upperclassmen. I think

EDITORIAL
Easter Tidings

This year when we receive East
er baskets and all the things that
60 with them, let US remember that
Easter ought to mean a great deal
more to us than that. Let's put
baskets and Easter eggs out of our
thoughts for while, and spend
some time in sincere thought and
meditation. Above all let us be
thankful that we live in America
where we are free to worship and
do as we see fit rather than living
in some Wartorn country of Eu-
rope. Easter should have deeper
and truer meaning than simply a
time to dress up in new dress
When we come back to school. we
then shall be ready and eager to
commence our work with added
zeal and energy.
