JUNIOR RECEPTION WAS VERY PLEASANT AFFAIR

The annual Junior reception to the Seniors held at the armory Wednesday evening was a most enjoyable one and was attended by many of the alumni and out-of-town visitors in addition to the members of the graduating class and others from here. Pawling’s orchestra of Watseka, Hl., furnished the music for the occasion and it is estimated that there were one hundred couples who danced during the evening. There were many others present who did not dance and, from the number of programs given out, it is thought that there were about two hundred and forty attending the function. Tiie hall was tastefully decorated in the class colors and the scene was a very pretty one. The out-of-town guests were: Miss Jessie McCarter, of Topeka, Kans.; Miss Mabel Nelson, of Lafayette; Parker Van Voorst, of Monticello; Elmo Blakemore, of Kennet, Mo.; Miss Sammons, of Kentland; Misses Lillian and Monta Oglesby, Miss Martha Taylor, Delos York and Clark Short, of Gary; Lester Gorham of Chicago; Hope and Frank Babcock, of Goodland; and Miss Dorothy Sigler, of Mt Ayr.
