I night, May 7. This was given by
the ninth grade, and being an
, honor never before accorded to

by the latter. The
large upper halls and library
of the school building were
' thrown open for this occasion.
These had been so beautified by
'the use of pot plants, cut flowers,
rugs, pictures and other
decorations that it seemed
scarcely possible that they were
not the lovely parlors in someone's
home. At the head of the
stairs, in the doorway of one of
the cloak rooms, perfectly delicious
punch was served lo all

Capped the Climax.
This example of abounding patriotism
occurred at a fourth of Julv
dinner given by the American colony
of a Swiss city. When the gentleman
who had been designated to respond
to the toast of "Tlie United States"
had completed his remarks he called
upon those present to drink "to the
prosperity of the great American republic,
bounded on the north by the
Dominion of Canada and on the
south by Mexico; on tbe east by the
Atlantic and on the west by the Pacific
ocean." Another gentleman,
carried away by the whirlwind of patriotic
enthusiaui, leaped to his feet
and again proposed the toast of the
United States of America, "bounded
on tire north by the North pole and
on the south by the South pole; 011
^ ? n/1 am flin
Lilt: CUbL UJ 111C uuvt vu vuv
west by the setting sun." When the
laughter and the applause had died
away there arose at the far end of
the table a little old gentleman unknown
to the others present. "Fellow-citizens,"
he exclaimed in a
shrill and squeaky voice, "I beg you
fill your glasses and drink ouoe more
to the prosperity of our glorious
American motherland; bounded on
the north by the aurora boreal is and
on the south by the precession of the
pleiades; on the east by primeval
rhfioa and on the west bv the dav of

judgment."
