The Lee Lantern describes Easter activities at Lee Junior College Baytown Texas with egg hunting scenes and messages about celebrating Easter. It notes eggs of various types, the practice of saving baskets and leaving more eggs next year.
The piece celebrates Easter rituals from gift purchases to egg dyeing and hiding eggs for children. It notes adults’ involvement in outfits and candy, with families coordinating to create festive moments as kids search for dyed eggs.
The piece compares personal drive to a lamp that needs a switch to light. It argues power exists in every person but remains latent until desire ignites action. It warns against overreliance on others, especially parents, who may hinder independence by doing for us. Each person should use their own spark to progress.
A lively school page mixes names and classroom chatter at LJC with April 1 humor. Students wander from Felton's Ford to benches, cafes, and the hallways while pranks, dances, and dating anecdotes color the day.
A playful roundup contrasts spring’s romantic rush and outdoor misadventures with expectations of serious study. It parodies socialist and industrial ownership fables, then ribbingly imagines Loyola University Chicago adopting a Chicago Plan style, ending with the April Fool note that the story has no authority.
