JUNIOR MAJESTIC
Friday night May 1 n large
eiowd was highlv entertained by
lie limine Class Tlie program
consisted of varied numbers the
first being an overall and gingham
chorus Burns Noble was very
ablv assisted by six of the Junior
gills in his interpretation of That
Old Sweetheart of Mine It is also
beleivcd that Aimer and Marjorie
made an excellent Romeo
and Juliet and that the Discovery
of America was very real
and artistic Many a laugh was
had over it any way The rainbow
chorus was very pretty not only
the music but also the dresses
and especially the umbrellas
If any body could find a better
Prof than Marvin Collett we
would be willing to pay them a
reward heeaue he certainly made
an excellent one Well for that
matter the whole faculty was
mocked well so none of the tench
crs took offense Miss Roots nuin
hers were enthusiastically neeiv
ed and the Corn Fed Cut Up
brought a laugh from start to finish
Tin Juniors had an cxeellent
rowd and took in about sixty
dollars which is a good sura considering
the prices Most of the
proceeds from this entertainment
will be given to the High School
Athletic Association
The Juniors wish to thank eery
mu who patronized it and feel
assured that they received their
moneys worth

MOTHER
Tho you mill search from pole to pelo
You ll never find another
Who can take the place of one frinnd
God gave us but one mother
Death stood neur here when who bora you
Agony was hers to know
Vet she bracl faced it for yon
fjfflfltai in her time of woe
Down the years how oft yon tried her
Often selfish hecdlwsh blind
Yet with love alone to guide hor
She was ever true and kind
Show her you have not forgot ton
Try to cheer nnd make her glad
But dont give her every blossom
Save n bloom for poor old Dad
Just a tiny little rose hud
In rouiomherance fond nnd sweet
Shows him you have not forgotten
lie too once helped guide your feet
Tenderly over Lifes Pathway
Kro you learned to walk alone
Far away from seenus of danger
Until voti had older grown
