the Williamsport Y. M. C. A. team, at Williamsport, on New

The evening of December io brought with it one of the most
enjoyable social events of the season. It was the occasion of a
reception and banquet tendered to the Senior class by Miss
Mabelle Thompson, at her home, east of the college. The in
terior decorations of the Thompson home were in the class colors,
red and black, and were most tastefully and artistically arranged.
Beside these, there were all the trophy cups which Ninety-eight
has won during her career. The entire affair was a splendid
success, and as such will long be remembered by the Senior
class. The banquet, which was enjoyed by eighty-four guests,
was without an equal in the history of the class. Our honored
friend, Dr. Colfelt, was present, and delighted the assemblage
with a most appropriate address. The following toasts were pro
posed and responded to most heartily
