The lovely weather this weekend reminded us of Easter, and Easter reminds us of our special dinner here at the dorm on Palm Sund<ry._ The Dormites and their guests identified their places by colored eggs which were used for name cards. Each egg was placed in its own nest of purple confetti. The centerpieces of pink and orchid sweetpeas, and pink lighted candles was set against a background of white linen table coverings. The buffet.reflected color from the tables in the tall pink tapers which glowed brightly against the mirrors. The March birthday dinner was held on Monday, March 26. Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Steiner were the guests. Tiny cliina rabbits and colored jelly beans served as decorations for the birthday table.

From all looks of the party-goers, and from their enthusiastic comments, the party at the "Little Red Schoolhouse" last Friday night was a big success. Every one had a grand time dancing the square dances, but we couldn't help wondering what women did back in the old days when such dances were common? Can you imagine what it must have been like to dance for an evening laced to within an inch of your life and draped with about 10 yards of homespun? It seems other folks had a good time this weekend too.

Just as in any office little things happen every day to make the life of the receptionist a little more exciting. It seems some of the many former male residents of Nelson Hall forgot to tell their friends that they have moved away. One day 'the telephone rang, and a certain Lieutenant was asked for. It was quite a while before the operator was made to understand that civilians have once again taken over the hall. · Speaking of telephone calls, most any time of the day or night a long distance call will come through for one of the girls. In case she isn't in, the desk girl has a good time-talking with the operator from another state. Of course, there are those calls when a sleepy voice will ask, 'Could you tell me what time it is?" Telephone calls are not the only interesting things that happen, (unusual people come in often.) One day an old lady came in who wanted to know in which room she'd find the County Welfare Agency. When she was told this was a Dormitory she muttered that she knew the desk girl didn't know anything, and she would find it herself. Since the woman's English vocabulary was limited, it took quite a bit of persua· t o ger1 h er t o 1eave "th e D orm swn peacefully. And then there are the situations that bring excitement in the form of embarrassment. One that rates high is when the desk girl calls the wrong date for the fellow waiting in the living room. And it isn't exactly fun to insist that closing hours are at 12:30 and then lock the door upon a final lingering good-night. WELSBY'S.
