Show day was a scene of color with the visiting guests intermingling with and being welcomed by their col-legiate hosts. "The campus is yours" signs in¬formed the seniors, and guides were always on hand to point out places of interest and answer any and all questions. The day's pro¬gram was crammed with events and entertainment and an idle mo¬ment had to wait until early the next morning to creep in. There were countless things that left their impressions on the guests and it would be hopeless to single out any one as being the most im¬pressive; perhaps it was the beauty of the campus, the hospitality of the Utes, or the efficiency of the departments. Whereas one student would be content to watch the classic track and field meet and tennis contests, another would spend his entire day wandering from one building to another inspecting and examining everything in his path. A "Senior Week" would be need¬ed to thoroughly acquaint the eager investigators. CLIMAX TO WORK Senior day is the climax to the year's work in all the schools, and it is on this gala day of pleasure and purpose that all activities, mental and physical, face their su¬preme test. Competition is the strictest, and the survivors are su¬perior. To develop music, act, de¬bating, athletics and everything that enriches the life of the state through the young is the motive and not to draw students from other institutions. To inspire in the minds of those seniors who did not want to continue in school the incentive to go on and grasp the opportunity their high school di¬plomas entitle them to and have prepared them for. If the happy throng of high school graduates received as much pleasure in being there as their hosts did in having them there, the day's purpose was successful. And they did.—Rex Greaves. HIGH SCHOOL DAY Last Friday, annual High School day, seniors of all the high schools in the state were entertained at the University of Utah. Trailing up the wide walk, through dignified pine trees and dainty blossoming cherry trees, the students were impressed by their first glimpse of the beautiful uni¬versity buildings, and all of them were warmed by the fluttering banner, "Welcome, High School Students." In front of a magnificent white building, friendly university guides in snappy red and white uniforms met the rather timid high school students and started them on tours of the campus, giving general— very general—information as they went along. STONE STANDS GUARD The rostrum, a huge red bowlder with its painted white "U," stands on guard beneath the flagpole. This rock, the guides said, was brought from Boulder in 1913, a symbol of a famous football game. There was a maze of buildings —rphysics buildings, medicine build¬ings, music buildings, art buildings, engineering buildings, but the Parks building is the center of all student activities. On the floor in the center of the large hall is the great seal, on which one must not step on any consideration; it has never been trodden upon. Facing the stairs Is a great statue of John Parks, the man to whom the build¬ing is dedicated, and on either side are trophy cases, well filled with the cups and trophies which have been won by the students. In the lobby is a miniature model of the Union building, now under con¬struction, which is being paid for entirely with student funds. It is a tradition of the school that no freshmen must pass through the great front doors of the Parks building. Outside, past perfect tennis courts and more beautiful trees, tucked away in a field is a muddy little pond where, on a certain day everyone available is given a thorough ducking. At noon, students formed a long "bread line," and if one ever reach¬ed his goal, he was given a most welcome luncheon, prepared by the college girls. CONTESTS DURING DAY There were contests all day long. At 1 o'clock in the Stuart biulding, one of that maze, was the most interesting one-act play contest, where Ogden's "Not Quite Such a Goose," won first place. At 7, at a special assembly un¬der a darkening sky, the winners of the band contest gave an open- air concert and awards for all of the contests were presented to the winners. The day was brought to a close with a beautiful dance at the U gymnasium, and the high school students gaily carried away a last¬ing memory of beautiful buildings, friendly students, starlight and cherry blossoms.—Edith Cross.

The junior class salaams before your haughty pride and gigantic abilities which you have fully por¬trayed in the past year. May we only prove as great as you in the coming year. Next week you will literally step out into life; success to you and re¬member your rewards will always be in proportion to your endeavors. "As ye sow, so shall ye reap." Some of the upper class wil lenter institutions of higher .learning. Some a vocation, but wherever you .may ro or whatever you may do. we wish you happiness and success. The Juniors In the quarries should you toil, Make your mark; Do you delv6 upon the soil, Make your mark; In whatever path you go,I In whatever place you staodS Mowing swift, or mowing slow, a With a firm and honest hand jfl Make your mark. —David Barker.
