On Wednesday evening, April 13, the Seniors of Meredith College were most delightfully entertained in the college parlors by their class president, Miss Lucile Kelly. To meet the Seniors she had as her guest about 50 of the young men from State College, Wake Forest and Raleigh.
Receiving at the door were Miss Annie Hall Baity and little Miss Louise Allen, the class mascot. At the entrance of the parlors Miss Evelyn Campbell, Dean of Women at Meredith, presented the guests to Mr. And Mrs. W.D. Kelly of Clinton, N.C., parents of the hostess. Miss Kelly was assisted in receiving her guests by Misses Helen H. Law and Laura Eiberg, sponsors of the class.
At the end of the receiving line Misses Ruth Livermon, Elizabeth Knight, and Bernice White, attired as Japanese maidens, presented the guests with paper almonds each containing a tiny souvenir and the name of a partner.
In the hall in a mass of Japanese decorations was the punch bowl, which was presided over by Misses Thelma Johnson, Barre Pritchett, and Beulah Rowland, also in Japanese costumes. Roses and sweet peas were used in the parlors.
During the evening the guests participated in progressive conversation and fortune telling carried out in various unique ways.
Delicious refreshments, consisting of chicken salad, cheese straws, pickles, salted almonds, coffee and cake were served.
