SOCIAL SEASON
With the Svudent Council Dance
over, Milné's social season is over,
with the exception or the Senior Ball
which traditionally falls on the same
night as class night. However, let us
omit that final affair which is of
concern to Seniors and a few Juniors
alone, and let us review hillne's
social calender, which has noticeably
been chan,ed within vhe past year.
The festivities were begun with
the annual reception in early November.
4& Junior High School Party followed,
while the Girl's athletic Club and the
Boy's Hi-Y Club sponsored a success—
ful dance Thanks,iving Eve. Whe ten-
lor High school, rorever restless,
decided to use their party money
before Christmas, und celebrated the
Feast of St. Nick with c gale afiair.
In early February, the two girl's lit-
erory societies enterteined the school
in c& joint dence, and a long time
elepsed before the annual Q.2.c.n.
followed late in april. «and les., but
not least, ceme the Student Council
ficir.
Upon s@unning the above resumé,
the reader cannot help noticing the
many chanses ind alterstions thut huve
been m.de since lust yoar, ‘there is
no Soph-Senior nor Frosh-Junior
iffair.
LVol I Number 34, p. a)
The Sigma dunce hus been ubundoned,
while severcl dances hive been :dded
in its stead. slto-,ether, there his
been %. tremendous shcke-up in tho
d.ncus themselves, while still other
changes hove been m.de in their spon-
soring und their presenti.tion.
Possibly more thin uny other,
this recent Student Council .1rf..ir
hus taught us < gre.v del in dunce
m.nigement. pirst, it wis the first
dence to be held in the old ,ymnesium
with no decorations; second, it wus
the first dinee to which purunts were
invited along with faculty ohiperones;
and thirdly, it proved thi.t no two
dinecvs whould be sponsored by the
choo] within the durction of three
weeks.
ech of these three observ:.tions
Ought to be of use to future di.nce
committees. any bilnite present ot
the siftir will suy how leasint wis
the .tmosphere of the old gymn..sium
ond the dunce committee will cvow
thit it is .m ides locction for en
economics] dence, for it nevds not
decorations. Every p:rent present
Mentioned how enjoy:.ble it wis to
witness <. school function of this
sobt, und expressed .. desire to be
ble to return. Therefore, whether
or not the di.nce was «. tremendous
finencial success or not, these
three facts have been discovered, +
ond by all logic, they ought to
in the better management of future
Milne affairs.
