HIGH SCHOOL CLASS DAY

Celebrated in High School Hall Monday

BANQUET AT WHITMORE

The Junior Class President Carried Off Honors at the Banquet

Class day exercises were held in high school hall Monday at 2:30. The seniors did not manifest the enthusiasm that is often exhibited on such occasions, and had it not been for the juniors in the gallery they might have fallen asleep. The program was an interesting one, and consisted in an address by President Parry; class poem, Boyce Shutz; essay, "Twentieth Century Ideals," Arthur Cole; oration, 'The Influence of Literature," C. W. Gust; class prophecy, Elsa Eberbach.

The senior banquet at Whitmore Lake was largely attended, 75 dinners being served in all. Half a dozen toasts were given, but William Belknap, president of the junior class, whose subject was "The Class of "04," deserved and received the loudest applause. His speech sparkled with wit, and proved that his ability as an athlete is eclipsed by his literary genius. Following is a list of subjects and speakers: "The Class of '03," L. D. Wines; "The Class of '04," William K. Belknap; "TheFaculty," Miss Mildred Haire; "Athletics," Henry George; "Our Jolly Times," Miss Eleanor Hutzel; "Our Literary Achievements," Lawrence Todd.
