Show Page 154 EtonianVol. II StumorEYOND a doubt the Junior Prom, of 1908 was the most successful ever given in our gymnasium. Considerable time and means were spent in preparation, and when the day arrived ideal weather prevailed. Everything indicated a great success. ,As one entered, a blaze of lights and artistic decorations greeted the eye. Streamers of lights radiated from a large '08 in the center of the room to the corners. Booths, erected by the various fraternal organizations, and artistically decorated were arranged around three sides of the room, while on the fourth a large orchestra stand was hung against the wall. The decorations of this were exceedingly unique and effective.Governor and Mrs. Cutler led the grand march. A large U was formed when the Juniors gave the '08 yell and the dance was declared formally opened. Dancing continued until 1:30, when all dispersed, expressing themselves as having had a most enjoyable time. ,. |
