Senior Reception to Juniors a Splendid High School Function.

The most interesting social event of the winter in high school circles, and probably the most important of all events prior to the commencement period was the senior reception to the juniors which took place Tuesday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. A. F. Long, their daughter, Miss Martha, being a member of the senior class. The juniors and the high school teachers were thfe guests. The'Long home was beautifully decorated. The reception hall was decorated in the junior colors, gold and black, the dining room in the senior colors, white and green and the parlors in the high school colors, red and black. A cobweb of delicate white and green was strung throughout the house and the decorations shqwed an unusual amount of skill and taste on the part of the committee that had charge of that feature of the reception. The young folks secured their partners for supper by drawing and matching hearts and this proved a very pleasant feature of the evening. There was no fixed program of entertainment Several games were played and a number of songs were sung and the occasion was declarel a fine success by the seventy-five that participated in it
