At a class meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 3, the seniors were given a report by their entertainment committee. Arnold Nelson, chairman, announced that the dance, which is to be a no-date affair, has been planned for Saturday, Nov. 14 at 8:30. A committee, consisting of Rachel Lunde, chairman, Noel Jones, Florence Johnson, and Hughitt Hinderaker, was selected to provide entertainment for those persons who do not dance. Refreshments will be taken care of by another committee: Anna Tonette Hegland, chairman, Earl Nelson, Verna Anderson, and Willard Hunter. A class picnic will be held sometime next spring.

JUNIOR CLASS SELECTS RINGS For the purpose of appointing a committee to select class rings, a meeting of the Junior Class was called in Room 18, October 26, by the president, Helen Johnson. After many nominations, and much unnecessary confusion, Phyllis Roster, Eleanor Tripp, Lyle Drake, and John Scott won the majority of the votes. A class meeting was called on Nov. 4 and four rings were presented to the class for its approval. The rings were voted upon, the chosen one being from, the H. G. Hulberg stock. All students interested in purchasing rings were obliged to order them before Saturday, Nov. 7. Let Us Give Thanks We are thankful for the opportunity of living and working in the present age, the greatest age in the history of the world. We are thankful for the love and devotion of father and mother, for the love and respect of brothers and sisters and friends, and especially for the friends who are kind enough to point out to us the errors of our ways and, at the same time, point out to us a better way. We are thankful for all material things calculated for our benefit and for the benefit of those about us. We are thankful for our minds, for schools and for all the myriad opportunities we have to develop and train our minds. We are thankful for beauty in field and forest, in leaf or tree, for music that soothes the tired body, and for the music that inspires us to better living. We are thankful for the kindly word and the pleasant smile that help us on our journey. For these and all thy other blessings, we truly thank thee, Lord. —0. W. Herr.
