We had all heard that Ruth had great dramatic ability, but we didn ' t realize how much she had made f her talent until after the Senior Play. If she should undertake a stage career, we know that with her usual determination, uot to say stubbornness, she would make good. We may have entertained a genius unawares.

Keep it up, Marea: you ' ll make our jaws drop yet. We wish we could boast of such brains.

One year. Wellesley Coll a Although Gertrude has been with us a very short time, we can easily see tbat she lias a decided bent for music, even orchestra playing.

Prom Committee: Senior Play. Ix future years we may find tbat Mary has acquired great wealth by her strict observance of the old saying. " Silence is golden. " Mary is very efficient and has many friends to vouch for her capability. Strange as it may seem that a girl should be fond of her home, Mary has a decided warm place in her heart for Worcester.

We thoughl Gret came from Bolland, bul guess we ' re mistaken, for she ' s from a good 1 I Boston suburb. We were all sorry that the Bradford Basket-ball game never came off, as Gret surely would have saved the day for us by the nifty way in which she can toss baskets. Then how she can play the piano! X le could ever get as much " pep " ' out of that instrument as Gre1 can. Here ' s to you in the future, Gret — we know you ' re glad the war is over.

The stairs haven ' t wrought any miraculous changes in Pearl ' s figure, either. Incidentally this same un- seemly plumpness was gained at Abbot. Mary is a good exam- ple of before and after. By the way. she objected strenuously to being called Pearl, but we jusl could n " t resist it. Oh, Wary, Want, you ' re no fairy, For now you ' re a true Abbot girl. You were thin when you came, but words are now lanu In describing our once sylph-likt Pearl. 9 MARION CHANDLER " Marnie " Xew Gloucester, Maine. Five years.

Marion came from " way down Maine five year- ago, and she ' s stuck by us all the way through. She ' s one of the corner-stones of old nineteen. We ' re all very fond of Marion, though she could n ' t be called exactly noisy ! She ' - a very efficient little Student Government secretary and never mislays any of our discredit-. Our Marion is a little girl Who ' s living high this She is so sweet a nil thotful, And certainly is dear. MARGARET FULLER CLARK " Mag " 169 Chestnut Street, Xorth Andover, Mass. Five years. Welleslev Colles Honor Roll ' 15, ' Hi. ' 17. ' 18; Odeon; Class Book Board ' 19; Senior Play: English V Plaj ' 18. Margaret ' s sunshiny hair is characteristic of her sunny dispo- sition, as are her brilliant blushes of her brilliant wit. She is a great favorite in the house as well as o ut. and can usually be found laughing, talking, tudvino-. or fooling with Gert Stark.

Cheer up, Kitty, even if you can " crawl through a flute without striking a note. " it certainly doesn ' t t oiir disposition, for which yon are famous. Though she holds a high official position, her spirit of good sportsmanship remains the same, ami for the success of this last year we can only thank ' you ami you alone.

We may have seen humorous people, hut of all we ' ve ever met, K. lias the dryesl humor and the most ludicrous. She can look perfectly sober and yet keep people in stitches of laughter. K. lias an excellent head, one which can think things through and think them through in the right way. Sailors have a greal at- traction for K. — she ' s not a hit partial to the army. Who could be in New L Ion ? We hare a i l who ' «, li. so droll, lint we nil know she ' II reach her goal.

Very few people know Helen as she really is. She seems on the surface to be a quiet, unassuming little blonde, but the old saying, " Still waters run deep, " applies to our Helen. " We licai ' she ' s taking a household science course, but the question is, when does s] lc take it? We never see her in class. Then is a maid in our school. 117(0 hates to keep a single rult : So ir]icn she wants, she cuts a class, lint somehow sit- can always pass. JENNIE MARR DUNAWAY " Jennie Marr " Virginia, HI. Two years. Senior Play: Senior-Middle Play. Jennie Mare ' s happy smile and hearty greeting are the best signs of her friendliness. .Moreover, her friends are never neglected because of her devotion to her studies. Scarcely anyone i more generous and good-natured than Jennie Marr. and she doesn ' t mind being teased because she i- broad. The occupation which delights her most is dabbing in the oils in the studio. painting china, or discoursing upon the never-ending merits of Illinois. Jennie Man has many traits, But of all things that she hates ' T is to study, rant, or write j She l ts ' cm go just out of spite.

Whatever her pro- fession, we sincerely hope that she won ' t become paralyzed when addressed by her domineering elders. But we hand it to Cora. that she lias made a great success towards our good behavior this year, and now we are ready to go out into the world true Abbot products — thank- to von. Cora!

Grace shines in " Lit ' and Psychology, and. on the whole, she is usually at cli ss - Her motto is. " Oh. how I hate to get up in the morning ' " anil consequently we often miss her smiling face at chapel. She is fond of drawing — if her books are not illustrated to begin with, they usually are in the end. Grace ' s home is in Andover. Ask her anything about the town and she " 11 tell vou.

" GLADYS MILDRED GLENDINNING " Gladys " 225 Jackson Street. Lawrence. Mass. Five years. Fidelio 16, ' 17. Gladys aspires to be a toe-dancer, and we all wish her the great- est success. Another little hobby of hers is roses. Ask her about then) sometime. Strange to say. however, these roses bloom at sea more than on land. Dare we to suggest that saying — " Ab- sence makes the heart grow fonder " ? There is n girl front Lawrence town Who never wears a single frown, And tin, she ' ll dance from dark till dawn, Cuns not for rhythmic on the limn. 17 MARGARET THORNTON GREELEY " Megs " 45 Orange Street, Nashua, X. H. One year. Senior Play. Margaret hasn ' t been with us very long, but we wish it had been longer, for her sweet disposition has made all love her who really know her well. We hear she is apt to get things twisted when excited, but we all make mistakes at times. you ' re had lira years of French And think gou ' re very bright, Just listen to Miss Greeley talk — You ' ll change your mind, all right. EVA JOSEPHINE HAMILTON " Jo " 3308 Robinwood Avenue, Toledo, Ohio. One year. Smith College. Odeon ' 19-; Secretary of Odeon " 10; Senior Play. She may be tiny and look innocent, but when she recites in Math, we wonder that one small person can be so wondrous wise. We ' ve been awfully glad to have her here this Senior Year, and feel that we ' ve made a true friend in " Jo, ' " and that she has done much for the class. If you go to (thin At anu time of gear.

If you want to borrow something, or want to tell your troubles to Bomeone who will sympathize, go to Harriette. She is always unselfish and ready to listen. Her tendency is to root pretty strongly for Williams. she makes " her mind, you can ' t change it No matter how hard you try. You might as well stop in the first place And not even bother to sigh.

Jane, what would we do in the History class if you didn ' t fill up the gaps in the conversation? Never mind, some of us envy you that art. Jane is an all-round good sport with never-ending pep. She keeps everyone busy, even the faculty. We all like Jane, she ' s so generous and good-natured and jolly. She might almost be called " Sunny Jim. ' ' Abbot certainly won ' t seem natural without her. For Jane is a day scholar, you know, She has n ' t a worry, not one, Rite drifts thru her Work Without even a quirk Just " leave it to Jane, " it ' s all done. MURIEL ARCHIBALD JOHNSON " Mooey " 20 Salem Street. Andover, Mass. Five years. Miss Wheeloek ' s School. Class Secretary ' 16; Class Treasurer " 17; Numerals, Hare and Hound ' 19; French Play: Sergeant. When wr consider how many excuses she has to find for chapel absences, we all agree that " Mooey ' has a wonderful imagina- tion. We sometimes wonder when she studies for this conversa- tion was overheard by a classmate: " Do you study in the afternoon? " -Oh. never! ' " ' " Do you study directly after dinner? " " Oh, no, I ' m usually busy until ten. " " You should never study after ten. " ' " I don ' t. I go to bed.

Dot is truly " a child of sunshine ' " and is always ready for a I time. When she arrived this year from far-off Janesville a day late, we were only the more glad to see her. We can ' t seem to think of Dot without also seeing Carol. If it ' s Dot. it V Carol, and if it ' Carol, it ' s Dot. Dot is little ami rate ami round.

Tali, and slender, Grace doesn ' t have to worry aboul " dieting. " .she loves to dance and she loves to sing. In fact, there ' s fun wherever Grace is, and her gay laugh has become a favorift ■. Grace really hates New York, and we always pity her vacation times. New Haven i also a town which w heartily despises. Her eyes are sparkling and bright, They ' re big and round and dark; The kind thai speak of love all right, A nd never miss their mark. HELEN TURNBULL LOCKE " Helen " ( Ihenchow, Hunan, China.

Two things we ' re sure of in Nadine — she ' ll never be called awkward, and she ' ll never be called a giant. Some of us wish that could be said of us, don ' t we?

Helex comes from Newburgh — we can tell by the way she says " down. " So can you. if you listen. As a scholar Helen more than dazzles us. We depend upon her almost entirely for reviews in class before exams. One of her specialties is geog- raphy. Ask her. for instance, about expeditions. She may tell you about the Lewis and Clark one. or just the plain Clark one. Helen ' s quite an actress, A Draper reader, too. Her jewelry ' s always shifting; Ye can ' t think it out. can you? 34 ( I ' i ! i • Intervale 35 Intervale ( " 1 ' m Always Chasing Rainbows " ) At the end of Exams comes our Intervale. And to go there so often we ' ve sighed, For we ' ve heard such tales of those mountain trails, And our dreams have long been denied. a Now we have really been there And we all love it so, Just wait until yon go there And then you ' ll really know " What fun is. It ' s worth Psych and Art History and College Mathematics. Our Intervale ( " For Lore " ) " We took goloshes: everybody ploshes In the snowdrifts, up there : We took our skates, too. cracked our little pate-, too, On the ice rifts up there. We are a crew well banged up, And so black and blue, But what ' s left of us, what s not reft of us, We have brought hack to you. ( " After You ' ve Gone " ) While we were gone, we did some skiing, Tobogganing and some sightseeing; We ve been glad, far from sad. And had the hestest time we ' ve ever had. You ' 11 go up there, now don ' t you miss it, Thought of exams, you just dismiss it. Oh girls! there ' s so much snow there, You eat and eat and eat and Oh, how you grow there! Wait till you go, up to Intervale. 36 As we stand before the symbol of the years that we have known, In this place of inspiration and of dreams, We are like the tiny argosies that ply their way alone, Setting out from peaceful havens, so to cany out their scheme-. And we ' re longing for the going with a haunting sense of pain That ever lead- us onward like a finger beckoning white. We go out our little parts to play, but we return again To our lire of inspiration, fading torches to relight. And a- we carry onward through our nagging daily cares. Over rocks and up the mountains to success, The thin " . ' that keep- us going and that keeps us out of snares 1- the tender memory, like a soft care--. Of tho-e hack here who love us, wait fulfillment of our dreams, And arc proud of every worthy thing we do; And who wait for our returning with a soothing love that seems To send us hack to battle strong anew. Oh, here we " e had our sorrows With little tragic pain, And here our gay tomorrows Always made each sadness gain, For we have all been comrade- here, Hut now our work is done. And we -et out w ithout a fear Our larger course to run. 3T The Outcome THE sky-way was almost deserted one bright June morning. Two dapper little planes were approaching each other at headlong speed with a swaying, swinging swagger which " he- tokened the absent-mindedness of their drivers. There was a collision ! ! ! ! And the two planes settled like tiny broken birds. Two be- goggled figures raised themselves from the debris. " What is the matter with you? " " It was all your fault ! " ' You were wrong. You don ' t know the sky regulations. " Very much heated by these vehement pro- tests, the two indignant pilots snatched off their helmets. " ( ' ami. " gasped one. " Why! It ' s Buzz.

My main reason, though, is to see Beth, who is making her first appearance at the Boston Opera House this week. " Where are you going? " " I ' m coming from Bonney ' s. She has heen made accountant for the foreign mail and has just given another Duxbury house party. All the old hunch were there. Hat has heen doing animated cartoons for the movies and Wygie has heen posing for her. Gret as a typist is a splendid pianist. Dot has taken over Marcellus Hofflin Co.. and 1 " m her traveling salesman. " " •• ( arol ! Of all things, that is news! Have you heard about Kathleen?

" ' " Let " - see. you heard, of course, that Marea bas settled down to sweet domesticity, having given up her quest for academic degrees. Betty Wright has designed a magnificent mansion for her. She has won other architectural laurels by designing a new conservatory at which Dotty Will is busy teaching the masculine element to do, re, me, fa, sol. " " Did you hear that Mary Cole is staff re- porter on the Kennehunk Sfitr? And Margaret Dane is doing reconstruction work in France. " •• How splendid! By the way. are you going to Intervale this winter? Millie Frost is tak- ing Mr. Bassett ' s place in conducting the Abbot Alumnae Tours. " " Xo ! Oh. Carol, I was in Xew York last month and I saw little Jo Hamilton, who ' s become the Maude Adams of the age in ' Peter Fan. ' Do you believe in fairies? " " I certainly do. Speaking of fairies, Mein- mie Chandler is married, lives down in Maine, has a cute little farm, an ' ducks, an ' pigs, an ' everything. " " ' Bless her heart ! I wonder what else I can tell you. Gladys Merrill is still doing research work in history and is one of the best authori- ties in the country. Times will change ! Her roommate, Dorcas King, is teaching Gym and, as Gym teachers usually do. has announced her engagement. " ' " 1 heard that Nadine Scovill is senator from Xew York state, and Dot Tyler is her secretary and campaign manager. " •■ Have vou heard that Clemmie has just de- feated Molla Bjursted for the International Tennis Championship? " queried Buzz. " Xo. but 1 saw Fizzie Armstrong last week.

' " " Xo, indeed, and you must sec Elizabeth Luce on your way home. She is training ballet dancers in Xew York. What do vou think of that? " ' " I declare! " laughed Carol. ' " But you know Ruth Alley never went on the stage at all. She is teaching Vocal Expression at Smith. Margaret Greeley has married Profes- sor Alhrecht. the eminent. Psychologist. " " Speaking of education. .Jane Holt is the head of the Andover Home for the Aged, and Grace Francis is drawing magazine-cover girls for the Metropolitan " said Buzz, with a well- known " he-he. " " That ' s nothing. Stark and Clark are run- ning a large clothing emporium in Ballardvale. and Frances Moses is giving swimming lessons at the X. Y. A. A. " Another laugh. " Did n ' t any of the girls go back to teach? " ■■ h. yes, Helen Locke is interpreting Chi- 38 nese at school. We got oul just in time, Carol. [rene Franklin is teaching Latin at Columbia where Gertrude Lombard is teaching Math: and is quite discou raged because she can ' t gel as many A " s out of her pupils ;is she u-e | to get herself. What is Mary Martin doing? " " Oh. she is queen of all stateswomen a Mayor of Warner, New Hampshire. Ami I just heard yesterday that Gertrude Bowman is an accompanist Tor Sousa ' s Band. " " Mary Brewer is happy. She ' s an influen- tial member of Worcester Society, and is run- ning the Charity Hull this year with Jennie Man- to assist her. " Rattle-de-bang, clap, clap, bang; a voice from the tumult. " Want any help? " An anti- quated Ford truck appeared, breathing out its last on the up-grade and coming to a stop with a final groan of despair. A majestic figure dis- mounted from the front seat and regarded the rear axle with motherly concern. " Copie, Copie! " ' screamed Carol, plowing through the remains of her splintered plane toward her beloved pal. " Copie! " and with another stride reached her outstretched arms and was clasped in a tight embrace. " Oh ! I am so glad to see you ! Buz , is here! Our planes hit each other, hut we weren ' t hurt. Come over and tell us all the spice. " " Hello, Buzz ' how are you? What have you and Carol been doing to each other? ' " " Oh. Copie, isn ' t this just like old times? What have you been doing? Do tell us all the spice. " " Why, 1 ' m patrol of the Newton Skyway. 1 ' e just been released from Naval duty and have been over to put my Caproni Biplane in the hangar. Let me see. what can 1 tell you? Well, Ruth Hathaway is leader of the National Community sings, and Ellie Taylor is in charge of the New Rochelle Branch, having made such a success that she managed to get Stibby away from the whirl of Springfield society long enough to captivate the hear ts of the hoys. ' ' " Up to their old 1 ricks. " said Buzz. " Jerry Murray has just published a pamphlet on ' How Lillian Bussed and I Retain Our Beauty. ' I Hi trying the treatment myself. " Carol, disgustedly, " Humph! " Copie. undisturbed, " I can tell you etome more if you -top discussing beauty long enough to listen. Bubbles never sees the old crowd anj more as she is so wrapped up in her beloved settlement work that she can ' t bear to Leave Worcester. And Pearl Button has finally formed the link between Vermont and Cali- fornia by her famous trip on which she tried, with great Buccess, the ' Eat and Crow Thin Diet!! ' And I ' ve heard about nearly all the girls that lived near Andover. Helen Hole i- head of the Lawrence City Mis-ions, and Dor- othy Evans has roused the people by her stirring speeches on factory conditions. Elizabeth Sjos- trom has founded the New Andover Jitney Sys- tem and is r unn ing back and forth and around for Phil(l)ip ' s friends and their Buitcases, and Mooev Johnson is doing kindergarten work on the bill. Dot Shapleigh is exhibiting remark- able china in her charming little Andover gift- shop. " " Isn ' t it just great to hear about what every- one is doing! " exclaimed Buzz. " I saw Gladys (ilendinning ' s name on a movie billboard the other day, and Grace Kepner is making mil- lions writing movie scenarios. " " Harriet Harrison is running a IIo te» House at Hotchkiss, " interposed Carol, " and Catherine Dan forth is doing her bit for the development of the ' Fleet. ' while Margaret Worman is posing for Harrison Fisher and is also taking a course in expert photography. By the way. isn ' t, or rather, wasn ' t my plane a beauty? T got it from ' K. ' Beck. She has been giving us all pointers in the aviation line. " Buzz, as usual. " My! but I ' m hungry, isn ' t there a dog-cart around here somewhere? 1 can ' t leave my plane. ' ' Copie. rising. " Come on up to the bouse for breakfast. As for the planes, we ' ll take them along. Hop in. I ' 11 pick them up. " Bang, clappety bang, clap . . . and the faithful little Ford once more took up its bur- den of life, said burden not by any means lessened by the addition of Carol and the splinters, to say nothing of Buzz! 39 FIELDS OF FRANCE Grey, green fields before me lie.

If thou hadst not thy forces forward hurled Against the tide of Evil ' s tyranny: Had not thy -on- with gladness fought the fi ht And stood the test throughout those fir t dark day-: Had they not sacrificed their lives, that right Should conquer might, that right should reign alway: If thou hadst bartered o ' er thy soul for gold. And had not answered when we called thy name, Thy name would never lie upon the roll Of those who stand within the Halls of Fame. ( England, ever in thy debt we stand, Who save thv life, thy all. to save our land. 40 THE ORPHANS OF FRANCE Tin war orphans speak: Our feet are so sine, and we ' ve wandered far, And we ' re tired, we orphans of France. And we ' ve no mother ' s arms into which we may creep To pour out our troubles and then fall asleep In that shelter of love all so cozy and deep. And the winters are cold, lure in France. Matin Earth speaks: Yes, winter must come as tlie seasons roll round. You poor tired babies of France. But I " 11 make a place on my frost-hardened breast Just as soft and as downy as any bird ' s nest. And there you may lie and may dream, as you rest, Of your mother ' s breast, orphans of France. Tin I ' n in speaks: And tho ' I must fall, I wont trouble your sleep, Little travel-worn babies of France. But gently I " 11 bathe the tear -tains from your face. And cool blistered feet till you dream for a space Of a happier time and a happier place, And your mother ' s hands, orphans of France. Tin Snow speaks: And I must dexend when the Winter commands, Little shivering bodies in France. But I ' 11 conic just a- gently, and fall -oft and white To make you a blanket through Winter ' s long night, And you ' 11 dream it s your mother ' s arms holding you tight. Those mother ' s arms, orphans of France Tin W ' inil sp ul.s : And I, too. am subject to Winter ' s command-. Little gun-deafened babies of France. But I ' 11 blow, oh so gently, and croon soft and low. And you sleeping sweetly there, under the -now. Will dream of a lullaby sung long ago, And your mother ' s love, orphans of Prance. 41 %4 : v i r • " 9 - v . V . : r . , •• A - C 3 CO U L o 42 DRGAPZATIDN5 . ' u: irr, itu HUM,, o f t-.M ' .

W.akkex Cast Richard Ford Pauline Miller Molly, his wife Catherine Gre enough Robert Shepard, Molly ' s brother Hope Allen M x Tex Eyck, a chum of Robert Virginia Miller Dorothy March, engaged to Max Martha Morse June Haverhill, Wellesley ' 06 Edna Dixon Johx Hume, Rector of St. Agnes ' s Julia Ablie Synopsis To Molly " great chagrin her maid elopes just after her guests, Dorothy March and Max Ten Eyck, have arrived. However, she is fortunate enough to get a supposed maid, really June Haverhill, Wellesley ' 06, who is doing some special investigation for eco- nomics courses Juring the summer. Embarrassing for June was the fact that, though to Molly she was known by the name of the first maid. Ellen, she was recognized by Bob, Molly ' s brother, who now falls in love with her. She is also recognized by Max. who is engaged to Dorothy because his late aunt ' s money was left to them both on condition that they marry each other. But Max is actually in love with June, while in the meanwhile an eccentric rector, John Hume, falls in love with Dorothy. Dorothy, how- ever, though sympathetic, is not in love with the lector. Molly ' - new ' maid ' ' is absent the next morning early and, though she is only golfing with Bob, all believe her to have followed the first maid ' s example in eloping. Meanwhile Mr. Hume leaves on the garden table a passionate note to Dorothy, expre-sing his de- sire to win her. and signed with his initials. J. H., which are also the initials of June Haverhill. Shortly afterward Max and Dorothy break their engagement. and hereupon Max finds Mr. Hume ' s note. He is much disturbed, thinking that it is from June to himself. On returning. Mr. Hume delights in the absence of the note, because he thinks that Dorothy has taken it. Before the garden party that evening. Mol ly finds out who her new maid is. It seem- to be an evening of proposals. To June ' s great di-gust Max proposes because he thinks it his duty, having had a former affair with her, and having read the note signed J. H. Finally, however, the misunderstanding is explained by the supposition that the note is one of Bob ' s jokes. Then June becomes angry with Boh. The second proposal is that of Mr. Hume to the horrified Dorothy. Max, however, who has decided that lie really loves her. comes to her rescue, and they again become engaged. Mr. Hume ' s proposal ex- plains the note, and so Bob and June, forgetting their quarrel, become engaged, and. as a good story should end. all live happily ever afterwards. 60 (( $L )t patc eD Cloafe • By Elizabeth Armstrong Cast Dickon, the tapster ' s knave Gwendolen Bossi SAM, helper to the hostler Anna Hussey The Landlord Martha Stockwell Lady Joan Eliza Ba i lej Sir Hugh Carol Perrin Synopsis Those with keen ears might have heard the fol- lowing conversation between Dickon and Sam soon after the great incident in the former lad ' s life as portrayed on the Abbot stage under the title of " The Patched Cloak " : Dickon. P faith, Sam, ' tis true, every word of it. Thou dost remember how 1 told thee of my wild hopes of adventure and untold fortune? I sat there shining the tankard-, and thou wert taking thine ease on yon bench by the fire. Give ear, then, and I will tell thee what did befall after the hostler had so rudely called thee away. As I sat alone dream- ing of that gorgeous cloak of Sir Walter Raleigh ' s all dripping with mud, — what dost thou think, Sam. — a lady opened the door! She would not have me take time to call mine host, but asked me to belp her. ' T was such a pretty talc she told of running away from a knavish brother who bid her marry against her will, that 1 sought to protect her. So ere the gentleman arrived, she donned my patched cloak and set to work shining the tankards. Sam. Hold, Dickon, did na the lord espy her ' . ' Dickon. Ay. but lie paid no heed to her when I rated her roundly for her lack of diligence as I would any scullery maid. He suspected that I knew of her whereabouts and grew so wroth that he would have thrashed me. had not the landlord happily come to my rescue. But he sided with the gentleman, and things wore like to go ill with me, when, in the nick of time, the lady revealed herself. And. Sam. ' t was all nought but a jest between Lady .loan and Sir Hugh, who was a guest of her father ' s. Sam. A jest. Dickon! Then how comest thou by the wondrous fortune that thou toldst me of now? DICKON. Marry, because I had taken part, though all unwittingly, in a wager they had betwixt them. Sir Hugh hath said that no man could insult her with him standing by and not presently receive a beating the like of which he hath ne ' er felt before. P faith, when 1 called her " slothful Janie " and " lazy wench " and Sir Hugh dealt me no thwacks for my rude words, lie thereby lost the wager and her for- feit of a kiss. My lady seemed well pleased and rewarded me loyally for my service in her behalf by helping my good Mother. But Sir Hugh was not content to accept defeat thus, for according to their wager, should he disregard an insult to hi- lady and another man champion her cause, she was to give her kiss to that other man. Sam. lie would have had Lady Jean give her kiss to me! Truly, I knew not what to say. and before I could gather my scattered wits lie offered to give me a place in his service it 1 would let him have her kiss. Was it not a right pretty bargain, Sam ' . ' Come Monday next. I am to be Sir Hugh ' s man, to wear his livery and earn fif- teen shillings a month. Sam. Thou ever wort a lucky fellow, Dickon. Me- thinks thy lord is strangely generous with his favors or else be sorely coveted the lady ' s klSS. Dosl think -he ha ' given it him. after all? DICKON. Ay, tor the landlord said tiny were right friendly at supper, and he doth not often see much farther than his nose. (il (( an affair of family " By Grace Bjepneb Cast Herbert HUNNEWELL, a wealthy business man Ruth Hathaway Emily Hu.x.neweix. his wife Elizaheth Xewton AIrs. Wixthrop Lowell, Mr. Hunnewell ' s sister Elizabeth Stewart Bobby Lowell, her son ' Bertha Worman Elizabeth Lowell, her step-daughter Dorothy Fisher Richard Johnson, a young business man Helen Locke Synopsis In his will, the late George Lowell inserted a clause which made it impossible for his daughter, Betty, to come into possession of her share of his estate if she married without the approval of her -tepmother, Mrs. George Winthrop Lowell. Airs. Lowell is strongly prejudiced against anyone who is not a member of one of the " first families " and consequently makes it very uncomfortable for Rich- ard .Johnson, a rising young business man who is in love with Betty. Airs. Lowell, with Betty and her -mall son, Bobby, is spending the summer with her brother, Air. Hunnewell. She is indignant because lie. a- Betty ' s guardian, allows Air. Johnson to visit them, and during one of his visits, while the young people, assisted by Bobby, who is jealous of both of them, are playing tennis, a heated discussion is held by the aristocratic Airs. Lowell, her brother and sister-in-law. Since the death of her own mother. Betty has spent the greater part of her time with her aunt and uncle, whom she loves as an own mother and father and who wish to let nothing stand in the way of her happiness. They are both very fond of Air. Johnson and believe him to be the finest of her admirers. Neither Betty nor Air. John- son know of her father ' s will, but Air. Johnson from a -ense of unwortbiness because he has no family. determines not to reveal his love for Betty, and until the day of which I speak, lie had not called at the Hunnewells ' for some time. During this visit they accidentally find that their love is mutual, and as Betty assures Richard that his family does not matter, they happily await Air. Hunnewell s return from a committee meeting to secure his consent. Betty tells Richard during the evening of her step- cousin, Dick Hunnewell. who was drowned at sea about ten years ago. and Richard is telling what he remembers of his life with his Uncle Dan, an old sea captain, when Airs. Lowell interrupts them with the pretense of looking for " Robert. " ' In the mean- time Bobby, in a playful tussle with Air. Johnson. has discovered a very interesting triangular bald spot on the top of that young man ' s head, which fact he confides to his aunt and finds that it excites her very much indeed. Richard asks Hr. Hunnewell to help him find his family, as L ' ncle Dan has told him that he is no relation to him and that he was picked up out at sea when he was about fifteen years old. Tints enabled by the bald spot on his head and the fact that he v. as picked up at sea, near Gloucester Air. and Airs. Hunnewell discover Richard Johnson to be their long-lost son, and Airs. Lowell, not will- ing to be found in error, asserts that she was deeply pained to object to " Air. John — er Richard. " but i- very glad that it is not necessary, and gives her consent, which completes the happiness of all. most of all, Bobby, for. all complications having been straightened out. lie can now see that fascinating bald spot again. 62 1 1 G3 Miss Howey. in History of Art: " We have a new lantern which is ilent.
