Such a gay, merry-making, light-hearted assemblage has seldom congressed at Judd Hall of the Presbyterian Col lege and the laughter, chatter of feminine voices were only Words set to the strains of melodious music that wafted from the instruments of Georgia’s best music-makers, Fulch er’s Ten-piece Novelty Orchestra. Such a congress of feminine beau ty has seldom been gathered togeth- r at a social frmetion of the Junior- Senior class. Wearing gowns that bore the characteristics of master needle-work and the fashion of Gay Paree, the ladies were attractive, charming and winsome. As a complement to physical beau ty the decorations of garnet and blue, blue and white, white and gold, of the college, senior and junior class es respectively were hung in a man ner that made a picture both tasteful and harmonious. The new dining hall with its glistening floors, its air of newness and the work of the decor ators reminded the merry-makers of the fable of Nero’s feast. i* « The favors were the feature of the *24 banquet. To the ladies was presented a sterling silver dorine of a square design with the seal of the college in the upper right-hand cor ner. The men were presented with a sterling silver belto-gram with the college sekl affixed. No more beau tiful, more attractive and more use ful souvenirs have ever been pre sented to the guests of a Junior-Sen ior banquet. The toasts provided for wit, humor, seriousness and flights of oratory. The toasters were selected from a wide range of competent speakers which insured the toast as one of the f features of the banquet. - The scheme of tiie program revealed that the titles of the toasts were names of pieces of famous literature by fam ous writers. Tis rumored that Thomas Carlyle smiled with satis faction as Miss Lucy Bailey respond ed to the toast to the ladies with the title of her toast as “Heroes and Hero Worship.” Col. Glasgow paled the attempts of Rudy and Kipling as he paid tribute to “The Ladies.” The following was the program of toasts: The prelude—F. K. Clarke. Crossing the Bar—W. J. Cherry. I To the Ladies—Col. E. L. Glasgow. Heroes and Hero Worship—Miss Lucy Bailey. Much Ado About Nothing—Dr. D. M. Douglas. A Man’s a Man for A’ That—Coach W. A. Johnson. Paradise Lost—Dudley McCall. Paradise Regained—Harry Hol land. Fare Thee Well—E. T. Wilson. The menu which was prepared in a palatable and appetizing manner would have easily been Tit for kings and princes. Each course was de licious and the Clinton ladies, who served the banquet, need to be con gratulated for the following menu:.. Grape Fruit Roast Turkey Carolina Rice Giblet Gravy Creamed Asparagus on Toast Spiced' Dressing ' Pickles Cranberry Sauce Hot Rolls Iced Tea Fruit Salad Crackers' Olives Nut Bread Ice Cream Angel Cake > .
