Decorations Are Secret
Charles Daie. Kay Bowes, Catherine Cook, Margaret Co^ra, and Clarence Mutchler, cha.rnien o£ the Junior Prom comiiiittees, have been putting in some hectic se.sJloiis getting
all plans ready tor May 'o. The Big
Night, according to their plans, is to
be more cheerlui, moie elaborate,
more collegiate, than any dauce ot
the season.
The class colors, silver and jade,
will dominate tiie decorations, the
unique plans lor which cannot be
pr,ed out of Cat.ieuue Cook. "All
I'.l Eay is," she burbles, ''that absolutely nothing l.kj them have been
tried here."
Margaret Coira's program committee has selected a program from
Wr.'ght's, of Phiiadelphia, made of
heavy silver-grey i;aper, embossed
with jade, and bearing the school
seal in gold. The new college seal
will appear for tho first time on programs; the die nee led tor the stamping is new being engraved, and wil!
be ready in ample time.

Few students were among the
missing when the annual Kid Party
came off Marcli 31, and those few
missed the best time since they wore
pinafores and rompers and spent
their pennies for lollipops.
All sorts of kids crammed the
gymnasium. Big tat sissies, prim little lassies, bashful boys ot' all shapes
and sizes—if any—, and even many
ot the faculty members, all of them

Goose.

as sissy as she could be, and "a per"cct scream, girls." Gert Haight had
the cutest romper suit, and Peggy
.Ma tin had the biggest butterfly how
on her hair that a k:'d could possibly
wear.
It was a real party. There were
'amcs and stunts every minute, recitations, pri-'es, lollipops to suck,
tovies, dances, following each other

make us want to stand and take our
hats off when we hear it; one that
we wal be proud to claim our own.
This Alma Mater song of ours
must be one that will carry on after
we who create it are gone. It must
lead the tradition of the college. To
do this. It must not only express our
school ideals in words but it must
also express them in beautiful harmony. And this not just by the ordinary, common chords, but by beautiful, unusual combinations. Someone
who knows music, who could mold
the words and music together should
write It.
Most colleges have two songs: one
a rousing, "rah, rah," loyal one and
the other a quiet beautiful hymn.
They sing both but they consider the
loyal type their real Alma Mater.
Our song must not be written hurriedly. It must be studied, for into it
must be incorporated that which will
make it live, our ideals, our school's
pride, our love and our loyalty.
It must appeal to us who are now
here, to the alumni and to the future students. Our Alma Mater must
be a song unforgetable, so that old
"grads" hearing it will thrill again
to the remembrances, and C. S. T.
C. will be proud to acclaim it her
own.

came, to place themselves lor

the rising sounds of voices proclaiming the marvelousness of these Seniors and Juniors.

Charles Daie. Kay Bowes, Catherine Cook, Margaret Co^ra, and Clarence Mutchler, cha.rnien o£ the Junior Prom comiiiittees, have been putting in some hectic se.sJloiis getting
all plans ready tor May 'o. The Big
Night, according to their plans, is to
be more cheerlui, moie elaborate,
more collegiate, than any dauce ot
the season.
The class colors, silver and jade,
will dominate tiie decorations, the
unique plans lor which cannot be
pr,ed out of Cat.ieuue Cook. "All
I'.l Eay is," she burbles, ''that absolutely nothing l.kj them have been
tried here."
Margaret Coira's program committee has selected a program from
Wr.'ght's, of Phiiadelphia, made of
heavy silver-grey i;aper, embossed
with jade, and bearing the school
seal in gold. The new college seal
will appear for tho first time on programs; the die nee led tor the stamping is new being engraved, and wil!

Few students were among the
missing when the annual Kid Party
came off Marcli 31, and those few
missed the best time since they wore
pinafores and rompers and spent
their pennies for lollipops.
All sorts of kids crammed the
gymnasium. Big tat sissies, prim little lassies, bashful boys ot' all shapes
and sizes—if any—, and even many

make us want to stand and take our
hats off when we hear it; one that
we wal be proud to claim our own.
This Alma Mater song of ours
must be one that will carry on after
we who create it are gone. It must
lead the tradition of the college. To
do this. It must not only express our
school ideals in words but it must
also express them in beautiful harmony. And this not just by the ordinary, common chords, but by beautiful, unusual combinations. Someone
who knows music, who could mold
the words and music together should
write It.
Most colleges have two songs: one
a rousing, "rah, rah," loyal one and
the other a quiet beautiful hymn.
They sing both but they consider the
loyal type their real Alma Mater.
Our song must not be written hurriedly. It must be studied, for into it
must be incorporated that which will
make it live, our ideals, our school's
pride, our love and our loyalty.
It must appeal to us who are now
here, to the alumni and to the future students. Our Alma Mater must
be a song unforgetable, so that old
"grads" hearing it will thrill again
to the remembrances, and C. S. T.
C. will be proud to acclaim it her
own.
