LO 3 iie »rorian£ c I jforetoorb r WAS Oliver Wendell Holmes who gave for h.s reason for having written many of his poems " Not for glory, not for pelf Not, be sure, to please myself, Not for any meaner ends, Always by " request of friends. " So, if we would give a rearon for our being what we are, we would echo that last sentiment, that it was because of " request of friends. " Yet, if it was at the " request of friends " that we accepted our pos.tions as members of the Annual Staff, it has been because of our love for our Alma Mater that we have put into it our time, our thought, and our energy. Before turning the pages of this Annual, we would ask you to remember that it is your Annual ; that you have made it what it n. We have endeavored to make your Annual a true reflection of your deeds and college life. Hence, as you turn the pages, be slow to criticise, for in doing so, bear in mind that you are criticizing your own self. You are gazing into the mirror of the lives of you and your fellow- students, and if you do not like the reflection you find there- in, remember it is your own fault, and if you would have a better Annual, examine and correct that which is lacking in your own life. " For life is tfe mirror of king and slave, ' Tis just what you are and do. Then give to the world the best you have. And the best will come back to you.

O 3 JHt ninian£ c Claft Htstorp IN SEPTEMBER, 1912, Anderson College first opened her doors to a throng of eager girls, earnestly bent on securing an education at all costs and hazards. In that throng were some of the members of the Class of 1915. We were ten in number that first year, and began our career in Anderson College as Sophomores. Oh, what joy to be able to look with condescending pity on the Freshmen, and to be treated as persons of superior wisdom by them ! After a few days of confusion, we banded ourselves together, formed a concti- tution, made numerous by-laws, elected our officers, and launched forth boldly into a sea of unknown waters, filled with many a dangerous reef of which we little dreamed. The days that followed were days of strenuous toil, with now and then a grand midnight feast to make us forget our trials and sorrows. Bright spots in the Sophomore year were the ten-course Thanksgiving dinner, and the Trustees ' Banquet. After inter- minable weeks, and numerous examinations of one kind and another, the year was finally at an end, and we were ready to take our departure for home, each with a world of expe- riences all her own. Time that once passed slowly seemed all at once to have quickened its pace to a most marvelous degree, and vacation was over. Once more we stood before the portals of our welcoming College. Again we were ten strong, but with only five of the original ten. Five new ones had joined our ranks, and right royally did we receive them into our midst, as part of our band. When we began delving into the unfathomable mysteries of Psychology and Economics, we felt that there was strength in numbers, and that, without the new recruits, five could never have accomplished what the ten victoriously achieved. In the beginning of the year, we felt seriously handicapped, as there had been so many changes in the Faculty, and we were as among strangers. But soon this feeling was over- come, and we realized that our new guides were gifted leaders; and a spir.t of comrade- ship sprang up between pupils and teachers, which grew steadily as the year passed. Although we still kept a tender spot in our minds and hearts for our first instructors, we learned to love the new ones just as much. Twenty-Six ty) o J|t r0iiai £ G Now, there is no accounting for the tricks of Cupid, and while we were all sup- posedly laboring, with minds stored with wisdom ' s lore, he stole a march into our midst, and captured the heart of one of our number, and persuaded her that love, when weighed in the balance with higher learning, was the thing worth while; so, after Christmas hob- days, she failed to return to us. Through the dark clouds that overshadowed our Junior year, the sun shone at many times, and we had each reached the mountain-top, and could feel the halo of Senior dignity already engulfing us. We forgot the dark days that had passed, and remem- bered only the brilliancy of the sun when it had broken through the rifts. Another vacation passed all too swiftly, and we once more roamed the College halls, this time as grave and stately Seniors, six in number, with only four of the original band of ten who had entered as wise Sophomores. Two who joined us this year came from far-away Minnesota. Again we welcomed the addition, for our responsibilities weighed heavily upon us, and we sadly m ' ssed the wise counsel of last year ' s Seniors, our staunch friends whom we had found tried and true. But as time passed, and we were daily consulted on matters of vast importance by the under-classmen, we realized more and more our exalted position, and grew more accustomed to pondering on weighty sub- jects placed before us; and our responsibilities became pleasures, and our dgnity sat not so heavily upon us. Day by day, we felt more sure of the long-sought goal ; day by day, we were rapidly passing the milestones; but as we drew nearer the journey ' s end, as we have reached the last milestone in our College career, the happiness is tinged with a feeling of genuine sadness that we are leaving the dear old College for the last time. The sweet friendships we have formed during the three years of our stay here will in a measure be broken. The friends we have known so intimately will be widely scattered, never to be reunited in the same bonds. Then comes the solemn thought that we are now begin- ning life, and that the future Yes long and straight before us, with many a hidden bypath to lure our timorous steps. So it is with a feeling of reluctance that we leave the pro- tecting walls of our Alma Mater, for the untried road ahead. — Willie Sullivan, ' I 5 Twenty-Seven Clatf ipropftecp Denver, Colo., May 15, 1920 EAREST MARY: — You will be quite surprised to hear from me so soon; I ■ but I have just had the most wildly exciting experience, and I am so anxious M W to tell you all about it that I can ' t wait any longer before writing. One day last week, I was wandering aimlessly around the streets, seek- ing something new and interesting, and my eye chanced to light on a sign nailed to the front door of the cutest little bungalow you ever saw. There was nothing particularly unusual in the sign, for these western cities are full of such placards, on each of which one reads about the same thing. On this par- ticular one I read, " Madame Vains, Medium, $2.00 per Interview. Information About Absent Friends a Specialty. " Anyone else except you might wonder why in the world that sign happened to catch my attention, and why it was that inside of five minutes I found myself in a queer- looking Oriental room, sitting opposite a large, rather handsome woman, whose coal-black eyes fascinated me. You alone of all my friends will really understand, because you, too, are always in search of some new adventure, and we are always doing things on the spur of the moment. Madame Vains, for she it was who was looking at me, asked me to name the friend about whom I wished to know; but I was so bewildered that for the life of me I couldn ' t think of a single person. Suddenly the thought of dear old Anderson College came to me, and quick as a flash the idea possessed me to ask about the girls of 1915, my classmates, about whom. I always love to hear. I mentioned Margaret CKnkscales first of all. You remember you told me about her yourself last time you wrote, and I thought that would be a good way to find out whether Madame was a fake or not. I was so excited and anxious to hear whether her statements would agree with yours that I could hardly wait, and — just think of it, Mary! She told me exactly the same thing, and in almost the very words you had written to me. She said Margaret was a Red Cross nurse in the universal war, and that, while recovering from a terrible wound, a handsome young army officer had seen her, and had immediately fallen in love with her. Yes ; Madame Vains even told me the date of their wedding; and you didn ' t even know that. After that, I couldn ' t help wondering if she were not worth questioning farther, so I asked her about Willie Sullivan. She described Willie as happily married, and living in Belton. When she told me Willie ' s husband ' s name, I felt that she surely must be right, for all that she said about Willie certainly agreed with what we used to predict while we were at College. What she said about Lethia, though, was such a surprise! Lethia offered the position at Wellesley College — the chair of philosophy left vacant last year by Miss Twenty-Eight .DH reiian$ c Calkins? I could hardly believe her; and I am so anxious to find out whether it is true or not. I was glad there weren ' t any more girls to ask about, because I felt that I couldn ' t stand any more surprises. I know you are wondering why I didn ' t ask about Hettie ; but when you stop to think about it, that would have been very foolish. You know she must have read about Hettie in the newspapers, and of course it would be no test of her power as a clairvoyant to ask about Hettie. Only this morning, I heard the newsboys crying an extra, " All about the National Suffrage Convention! President Hettie Jackson ' s speech printed in full. " After all, why should I doubt Madame Vains, if what she told me did seem strange? Haven ' t the girls that I have known about done just as odd things? Shall you ever forget how we laughed when we arrived at that little village in Western Canada, and saw Esther Joy, loaded down with all sorts of queer bundles, just coming out of the general store? Or shall you ever forget that long dusty ride in her Ford car out to her little two-roomed shack, " forty miles from nowhere, ' ' as we put it? Who would have dreamed that Esther Joy would take up a claim and go out and live on it all by herself, with only a chance visitor once in a long while ! Well, I mustn ' t write any longer, but I suppose I can ' t stop without " fessing up, " telling you the part about my interview that worries me, although I laugh and say that, of course, it won ' t ever come true. It is this: Just before I left, I asked Madame Vains to tell me a little about my future. She said it was customary to pay extra for that, but I, remembering my light purse, begged her just to include in the interview a sentence or so about me. She got up from her chair, crossed the room, and standing with her back to the window said rather disinterestedly: " You are now on your way to New York, to continue your vocal study. " Sur- prised and delighted at her correct statement, I unconsciously nodded my head, and she continued rapidly: " I see you ten years from now, standing on a crowded street corner. The night is chilly, and a fine drizzle of rain is falling. Your black and red Salvation Army bonnet is saturated with the rain, and you shiver slightly as you shout the chorus, " Onward, Christian Soldiers. " She ceased abruptly, turned, and stood looking out the window, giving me to understand very forcibly that my interview was ended. Of course, I tell myself that she was simply piqued that I did not ask for a whole interview, and pay extra for my fortune, and so in revenge she made up that dismal future for me, with no attempt to tell what she really saw. Well, I can ' t forget it all, and I catch myself shivering every time I think of it. Do write me soon, and tell me what you think of the whole thing ; and let ' s hope that either she was not telling the truth about me, or she was a fake all around. I can ' t believe all she said was faked; so do find out, if possible, about Lethia and Willie. As ever, — Bettie Lawrence, ' 15 Twenty-Nine LO DH Serorian C " w Hasit ®Stll anb Testament E, THE Class of Nineteen Hundred and Fifteen, of Anderson College, in the city of Anderson, in the County of Anderson, which is in the State of South Carolina, in the presence of these witnesses, do hereby ordain this to be our Last Will and Testament, written and recorded this fourth day of March, in the year One Thousand Nine Hundred and Fifteen.

Realizing that, as a member of the " Board of Managers, " Nelle Darracott must have many juicy bits of gossip hidden away in her brain, Betty Lawrence wishes to transmit to her, her unrivaled reputation as a talker. Item XXX. Inasmuch as our Lady Principal, Miss Helen Smith, has lived for some months directly below two of the members of the Senior Class, and is therefore able to realize the earnestness of purpose and seriousness of each word uttered by the Seniors, we do direct, constitute, and appoint her as sole executrix of this Will. In witness whereof, we, the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Fifteen, do set our hands and seals.

Fifty-Two s 2 -DH i eSororian c- " Jfltlabp ' g IStamonb " NAME is Mary Ford, and I have for years been friend, sister, com- ■ 1 I panion, all in one, to — I must call her " Milady " ; for if I should tell her J JL £ " • ' ! name, you would know her instantly. She is a very famous actress, noted the world over for her exquisite beauty, great talent, and for having in her possession three diamonds, the most magnificent that human eye has ever seen. I may tell this story, whxh I have kept a secret so long, but I must not reveal her name. To begin with, Milady was born on the same day and year as I was. That in a measure accounted for the intimacy which sprang up between us when we were mere children. Her parents came as complete strangers to our little country town, but it did not take me long to discover Milady. We soon sat together at school, stud:ed from the same book, and made our playhouses under the same old oak out in the pasture. When people saw one of us, they looked around for the other. She Lved a very happy life, until she was left completely alone by the death of her parents, two days apart. No-one knew of any relatives to whom she might be sent; even she never mentioned " grand- father " or " grandmother. " It was evident that she must be cared for, so one of the neighbors, Mr. Ord, took her to be " one of his children " ; but really to be treated far worse than a servant girl. My father and mother often pitied her, but they already had ten little mouths to feed, and so did not feel able to take her. Whenever she had the good fortune — which was rare — to get through with her work a little sooner than usual, she always came to me, and we went out in the woods, and lay down on the soft green turf, and gazed into the wide stretch of blue, beyond which she said her dear father and mother were resting. Sometimes, though, her grief became too great, and she cried on my shoulder for " Mother " until I clenched my fists and fairly quivered to fight, because nobody but me showed any love at all to her. This was a natural attitude, for I was a healthy, red-cheeked tomboy, while she was little and gentle and quiet. But I knew! Those big gray eyes I always adored, and that curly brown hair, showed me that Milady was going to be a beautiful woman. Then she would cheer up, and tell me of her ambition to become an actress — " one who would do some real good in the world. " It was then that I started calling her " Milady, " and it seemed to please her so that I ' ve always kept it up. In all her confidences to me, how- ever, down in the little old pasture, she never uttered a single reproach against Mr. Ord and his family for the way they treated her; she seemed to think that since she was entirely dependent on them, she must be only grateful for what they did give her. When she was e.ghteen, she gained Mr. Ord ' s consent to work her way through College, with a little aid from him — the only generous thing he ever did in his life. During her first year. Miss Gray, the Expression teacher, discovered Miladi ' s possib- ilities, and finding that the girl was poor, but deeply desirous of the training, gave Milady what had been her heart ' s desire, but what had seemed far beyond her reach. By the Fifty-Three LO 3 i|t r0iiai £ G time Milady finished College — with high honors — she was known to many a person for her Expression. After that, good fortune seemed to be at her beck and call. She was invited to go on a tour with Miss Gray, who had become very much attached to her, and it was then that she met a famous producer of plays. He was quick to recognize Milady ' s real talent, and offered her a place in a " feature " he was starting on. She never tired, but by dint of hard work, perseverance, and sheer force of will and courage went up until she became leading lady not only of that but of many other plays, which owed their success to her interpretation of the important role. She was sought after by great managers ; famous playwrights wrote especially for her ; and as for the men, women, and children who crowded to see her, they almost worshiped her. All this time I had been staying quietly at home, for my mother and father needed me sorely. I knew all of Milady ' s " history, " from the letters she never failed to send me ; and I was not surprised when she announced that she was going to England, and from there to the continent. But I Was surprised when she asked me to go with her. She begged me to go, saying she had wanted me every day since she had left home, and would not take " No " for an answer. After hesitating a long time, I decided to take the advice of my parents, and go; since I had my own adequate means of support, and would not be dependent on Milady. We have been together ever since ; shared everything, and gone everywhere together, for one could not do without the other. Well, to go on, Milady went on up until she became very rich. Then we bought — together, as in everything — a beautiful country place near Houston, S. C, and named it Greencastle, which, since my own parents had died in the meantime, was now my home. We had the old mansion remodeled, and the grounds planned by a land- scape gardener; and it was not long before Greencastle was known far and wide. Then Milady bought Land ' s End. This was a forsaken piece of land, not far from Greencastle. The old man who owned it in some way aroused her sympathy, and she took it, being assured by her lawyer that the transfer was all right. The negroes around the place always shuddered and rolled their eyes when Land ' s End was men- tioned, and on asking Aunt Dinah, who kept the house when we were away, why they did it, we always got the same answer, " Laws, Miss Ma ' y, dey done think the ' s a ghost out dar. Ah don ' t think; ah knows — fer Ahse seen hit wid mah own eyes. An ' it sho ' ly is de cu ' iousest thing the ' is, fer hit ' s got three o ' the biggest shiniest eyes. Urn iih! " One year we spent at Greencastle I remember especially. It was just after a season of hard work, and Milady and I were tired, and glad to get back to our beautiful home. We enjoyed as never before the loveliness of the spring and summer. We did nothing but eat, sleep, talk and walk. Walk ! We fairly scoured the country — up hill and down dale; and came back worn out, but rosy-cheeked, happy, and contented. It was an afternoon in N ay that, just as we were starting on our walk, Milady suddenly remarked, " Mary, I know the very place to go: Land ' s End! " " Where — ? " I had forgotten all about it. oJ SMororian £ c Drtn J " Stupid, don ' t you remember? The land I bought from the old white-haired man. ' ' " But — the ghost — " " Oh, let ' s rout the old ghost. Come on. " Accordingly, after crossing patch after patch of woods, and long stretches of pasture lands — with a few somewhat destructive experiences with barbed-wire fences — we came in sight of Land ' s End, a bare little hill. If it was not really the end of the land, it certainly seemed to be the end of civilization. We climbed to the top of the little elevation, and found that it looked somewhat like the mouth of an extinct volcano: the sides sloped gently down to a basin. Determined to go on, and find out all we could, we slid down to the basin, and there saw a large hole in the side of the hill, but so peculiarly placed that it could not be noticed by anyone who stood on the " rim. " " I dare you, Mary. " Now I never could take a dare, so I walked calmly into the cave; but I soon came out — a good deal less calmly. Milady laughed at me, but I told her to try for her- self; and she did the very same thing. I knew those two big glaring eyes in the back of the cave were enough to scare anybody half to death. " Mary, I — I don ' t believe the thing moved. Come on, and let ' s find out what it is. " There spoke Milady ' s courage; but I ' ll warrant she was trembling in her boots. So, armed with a hatpin, and a stick that couldn ' t have knocked down a kitten, we crept back into the hole. This time we were to be scared worse than ever, for we heard a deep voice say, " Wait. " You may be sure we did anything but wait; and for the third time that cave was left. Then something strange happened — the ghost came out. Only it was not a ghost at all, but a splendid-looking young man, whose laughing blue eyes and black hair betrayed Irish ancestry, and whose firm chin and high forehead betokened other strength than physical. To say the least, we were astonished. Milady and I shut our mouths, which no doubt had been open for the last five minutes — I suppose our eyes looked like saucers. " I beg your pardon; if I have frightened you. " We murmured something indistinctly. " If you will come into my humble home, I may be able to explain. " Still somewhat dazed, we followed him into the cave, at the end of which, on a level with those eyes, was a huge rock. Our leader rolled this away, and conducted us through a narrow passage to another rock, which disclosed a little room, lit by some lanterns. The earth was held up and back by stout boards, and the furniture was comprised of several rude chairs and a table. " This is my sitting-room. Will you have seats? Now, if I start from the beginning, the whole thing will no doubt be clearer. First, my name is Stanley Reid, Irishman. I was born in the " ould counthry, " and was but a year old when my parents Fifty-Five O D 5 rorianB came to America, and settled in Princeton, Va. Two years later, my father died, and Mother and I were left alone. She managed to send me to school until I was ten, when I went to work as an errand-boy for the manager of a famous diamond concern. I did my best, and it was not long before I was a clerk in the jewelry store, trusted by almost everybody. My mother taught me, from the first, three things: honesty, truthfulness, and sobriety ; and I have tried faithfully to keep to those teachings of hers. Finally, I became intensely interested in diamonds, and spent all my spare time in the diamond cutter ' s place, where I learned to know ' good ' diamonds when I saw them, and how to cut them. " Even while I was having all this good luck, I was worried about my mother, who grew more frail every day, although she never lost hope, courage, and cheerful- ness. The doctor told me if she did not go to a certain sanatorium, that she would not last longer than a month. I set to work harder than ever, for my wages were small, and after providing for her as well as I could I had saved very little money. Less than a month! A long time to get up two thousand dollars! I gradually gave up all hope of making it myself, and so, mustering up my courage, I explained everything to the president of the company I worked for, and asked him to help me a little. He was a stern man, though, and refused, saying he himself could hardly make ends meet. Then I puzzled my brain as to how I should get the money : but never seemed to get anywhere. " One day I was called to the president ' s office, and of course my first thought was that he had decided to let me have the money. Instead, two officers of the law showed me my overcoat, in the lining of which reposed two thousand dollars. I never knew how it got there. I was new as compared to the other employees ; I had asked for a loan, and had been refused. They wanted no more evidence. I was innocent, but had no explanation; so I went to prison, where I stayed three years. In the meantime, my mother had grown worse, and for two days before her death I was allowed to stay with her. She never knew my trouble. " Here he paused abruptly, and passed his hand over his eyes. I was close enough to hear him whisper brokenly, " Oh, me dear little mither! " Then he continued. " After I was let out, everybody seemed to know of my disgrace, and I could get hardly enough work to live. I did everything from shoveling snow to driving a grocery wagon ; but always, just as soon as I was getting accustomed to my work, 1 was dismissed. I resolved to leave Princeton, so I set out, and by walking, and sawing wood for people who lived along the road, I managed to get here. I just happened to see this hill, and made for the top, so as to view the surrounding country. I was not expecting to find a hole in it, though, and I fell down to the very mouth of the cave, where those same eyes frightened me. Then I found, by accident, that this part was hollow, too ; and it was not hard to fix it up to live in, since people seldom came around. By doing odd jobs around here, I can keep enough to eat, and have a nice little home. " By now, Milady and I were looking at h:m with interest. We knew instinctively that all he had said was true; and that he was a gentleman. His good use of English, •a Jw rorians G ' with only one or two lapses into the Irish brogue, showed that his parents had been refined and well educated. " But one thing I have been worried about: I have never been able to find out to whom this deserted place belongs. Can you tell me? " " It is mine, " Milady smiled, " Mr. Reid. This is Miss Mary Ford, my dearest friend; and I am — Milady. " " Miss — " " No. Just ' Milady ' is what Mary calls me. " " Well, Mil — Madame, you possess the most valuable diamond vein in the world. " This surely was an afternoon of surprises! I was beginning to think I would have to hold my mouth shut — it had got into the habit of dropping open continually. And, as for Milady — she was in the same fix. " It is the richest, even though it contains but three diamonds. " He opened a drawer, and took out a great lump, which looked as if it had been made of sunshine and starlight and a beautiful woman ' s smiles and tears. Mag- nificent? That was not the word for it. " But the other two? " Milady was not satisfied with one. " They are the other eyes of the ghost. We shall have to blind him; and then I ' ll have to move. He has been my guardian. " " Stay as long as you like, " said Milady. " But if you would, we should like to see you once in a while at Greencastle, our home. " After a little more conversation, Milady decided it was time to go home; so our host conducted us to his " front doo:, saying he hoped we would come again. " When we ' re in need of excitement — I can hardly talk now, I ' m so flustrated — we ' ll come back and look at our diamonds, won ' t we, Mary? ' ' Later: " What do you think of him, Mary? " I replied promptly — I came to conclusions very quickly; " I like him. He is honest and true and strong. And you. Milady? " " Oh — why look! It ' s nearly dark. Let ' s hurry, or we ' ll be late for dinner. " H- A year later — but what ' s the use? You know already. And, as the French say, what would you? At any rate, Milady found four diamonds that afternoon instead of three. She has them yet, too. — M. R.

This day hast W i i thou done well. ' And he gave to him of the fair daughters of the land, S the fairest; and so they were married, and lived happily ever after. " The old woman ended her story, and, closing the much worn and faded volume, turned to the little listener at her knees, and said, " And now, my lad, take the candle and get you to bed, for it is now far into the night, and high time all children were asleep. " " But, Granny, " said the child, " why don ' t I ever see any knights? Where does they all live? " " They do not live any longer, lad. You forget that that was long years ago. " " Oh, " exclaimed the little fellow, tremulously. " And I was a-going to begone when I got growed up; and now I can ' t; and I thought they was so be-au-ti-ful, " he ended chokingly, burying his head in the old woman ' s lap. " There now, child; do not take on so. Look up, and listen to what my father used to tell me: " True knighthood never dies. Of course you may not wear the lovely clothes, and live in wonderful castles; but your grandfather used to say that did not make the real knight. He told me that, to be a true knight, you must ever do all and give all for the woman you love. If this you do, then you will have proved yourself a knight, indeed. And now, Joe, let me not bid you again to get to bed; but take the candle and run along. " And though not wholly content with the explanation, the child trudged off to bed, to dream fantastic dreams of brave men, knights clad in glittering armor — all of whom were laying down ther lives for the woman they loved. Years had passed. Joe Kendon kept a little old second-hand bookshop, down in the slums of one of the greatest cities. Though deriving more pleasure perhaps than pecuniary gain from it, Joe was not di scouraged, for he was not overly ambitious. Yet there was one thing, in the possession of which he was indeed rich — his love of the strictest honesty; and his utter scorn for anything that failed to measure up to the standards he always set, commanded the deepest respect from all who knew him. Young Kendon, big-hearted as he was, was well thought of, even loved by his poor, simple friends. Of all the gatherings and merrymakings that mean so much to those lives in the slums, none was complete without his cheerful presence; and his merry blue eyes might have won the heart of many a maiden who coyly shot more than one coquettish glance and smile in his directon. But these smiles and glances were " lost on the desert air, " as far as Joe ' s interest in them was concerned, for his heart and smiles were for another — one rarely seen on these festive occasions. ■D H rorian Farther down, in one of the poorest and most wretched of tenement houses, dwelt beautiful Rosie Leeds and her old father! A hard life it was for Rosie, too, for the old father, who was very, very feeble, being partly paralyzed, and almost blind, needed much care and good food. Sometimes it seemed to Rosie she did not know how she would be able to continue to keep their bodies and souls together. She worked downtown in a cheap department store; but the wages were small, and there was the doctor ' s bill to pay, the food and medicine to be bought, and each day an angry landlady to plead with to give her but a week longer, and not to turn her old father out into the streets. But worse, by far, was the task of trying to keep heart and spirit in the old man, and to keep from him the knowledge of her bitter struggle with poverty. He was growing feebler each day, and if she might make his few remaining days comfortable and happy, she would ask no more. And this was the girl Joe Kendon loved, the girl whom he had asked to become his wife. Many wondered at his taste in choosing such a poor little creature ; but Joe did not wonder. Perhaps he had at first been attracted to her by her beauty, for she was indeed truly so, with her great dark eyes set in the pale white face, and her beautiful black hair falling gracefully down over her neck and shoulders. But it was not for her beauty alone that Joe loved her. Indeed, this became a minor attraction after he knew her better. He saw in her what many others did not see. He saw in her purity and goodness, and her great love for the childish old man, for whom she toiled night and day. It was his wish to marry Rosie, and thereby lessen the great burden she was bearing; but it was in vain that he pleaded, for Rosie had refused stoutly, saying that she would not bnng two burdens to him at one time, whispering tenderly into his ear that they must " bide a wee. " He could do nothing but submit. Yet it was done very unwillingly, and with a threat that if soon she did not change her mind, he would; and would take her away with him by main force. It was late in the afternoon of a cold December day — a wretched day it had been. The snow was falling fast, and along the streets the people hurried to and fro to escape the fast approaching snowstorm. Many shivered and crouched in corners or behind trees to cut off the biting wind and the driving gale. Joe, coming home from a fruitless journey, having tried to sell a few books to a, downtown bookshop, wearily boarded a passing street car. The car was crowded, and, tired though he was, he was obliged to stand among the crowd and cling to the straps. Business had been very dull and slow of late, and, for once, Joe was anxious as to his own future. For once his eyes looked saddened, and his heart felt heavy. But not so much about himself was Joe worried. It was Rosie! She had looked so sad and worn the last time he had seen her. Perhaps, had he known, and urged his suit then, he might have won (for, although Rosie confided much to her lover, she could not tell him of all her work and worry). But, as prospects then appeared, Joe could hardly see how he could manage to support one person — much less three; so instead of urging his suit he said to Rosie that perhaps she was right after all, and it might be best for them to " bide a wee. " Sixty LO 3 ife r0iian£ c Joe ' s mind, not being accustomed, however, to dwell long on subjects of a gloom} ' nature, soon turned its attention to his surroundings, and he became interested in his fellow-passengers. The car was closely crowded and ill-lighted, and hence it was almost impossible to recognize any familiar faces. One figure, however, attracted his attention — it was the slight figure of a girl, who stood several feet in front of him. She wore a long shabby coat about her head and shoulders. As he was often reminded of Rosie, he became interested in the nervous attitude she had assumed. She appeared to be extremely agitated, and kept glancing anxiously and nervously about her. Suddenly he understood the cause of her extreme nervousness and agitation. Standing just at her side, and clinging to the side of the seat next to which he was standing, was an old gentleman. Clad in his great coat, with his cane and gloves, he appeared to be very much out of place in this crowd, which consisted chiefly of rather poor people, wrapped in their meager shawls and shabby cloth. ng. So interested was he in trying to balance himself, and at the same time read a seemingly interesting letter, he was not aware of the manner in which the young girl was so closely observing him, nor the glances being cast by her at the pocket into which he had so carelessly dropped his purse, after paying his fare. But Joe did notice this. He was perhaps the only one in the car who was quite tall enough and at just the right angle to witness what was going on. As Joe watched the proceedings, his heart sank within him, and he became actually weak. Was it possible that the girl had any other motive than mere curiosity? Surely not! He tried to drown the suspicions that would arise in spite of h.s efforts to prevent them. But, as he continued to gaze, his worst fears were realized. He looked, and his very soul seemed to sicken as he saw the girl slowly, and with the cunn.ng that would do credit to the most shameful of crooks, let her hand slip deftly into the old man ' s pocket, and draw out the purse, and then quickly slip it into her own pocket. Then — but Joe did not see this, for he could no longer look, but turned his eyes in another direction. Then she, it would seem unconsciously, pressed back into the crowd, until she stood almost directly in front of Joe. Joe gazed absently out of the window, his heart full of sympathy and pity for the poor creature. The idea of arousng all those on the car, and pointing her out to them as a thief, never once entered his thoughts. Not for one moment did he think of her crime. Pity alone reigned supreme in his heart. Poor little creature! Suppose she were caught! He wondered who she could be! Just then the car turned the corner with a jerk, and Joe ' s reflections were checked as he turned himself about. He stifled the cry that rose to his lips at the sight that met his eyes. The jolt that made Joe start and turn around, had also shaken the shawl from about the face of the girl, and since she was nearer to Joe, he could see, and worse still could recognize, the face. A few moments ago he had wondered who the girl could be. Now he knew, and would have given all he owned never to have possessed that knowledge! Rosie! As the name Sixty-One CO D ijeSoTOrian echoed and re-echoed through his brain, it seemed to Joe that his heart was dying within him. A few moments ago, only pity and sympathy were to be found in his heart. Now they had all vanished. In a moment, all that pity and sympathy was transformed into anger, rage, and almost hate. His idol, his angel of goodness and purity, had been dashed to the ground and shattered. Perhaps it was this thought — the realization of his fallen ideals — that hurt, more than the actual deed itself. Again his eyes were turned on the girl. She stood there like some poor, fright- ened thing. She was trembling from head to foot with cold and fear, and, as Joe knew, with the knowledge of what she had done dawning upon her. Her bare hand, clasping the straps, was blue and tense. Then, as Joe gazed upon the poor, quivering form, again he forgot the crime and the horror of what she had done. He saw only the little trembling figure, and the wrath and scorn that had hitherto burned in his eyes were softened by tears of pily, and he began upbraiding h ' mself for h s harsh judgment of her. It was not Rosie ' s fault that she had done what she had, half so much as it was his own. She had not taken the money for her own sake, but for the support of the poor, dying father. If he had done his duty, he would have married her, as he had declared he would. Then nothing of the kind would have happened. It was his fault, and his alone. Far worse than he had blamed Rosie, he now blamed himself. Again he looked at Rose. Suppose the old gentleman should discover his loss ! Suppose she should be detected, and arrested ! The thought beat wildly through his brain. Rosie arrested — while the truly guilty one went blameless! Joe was waging the greatest battle he ever fought — a battle between his great and noble heart and his pride. But his heart, as usual, won the v ctory. He was the guilty one; Rosie the innocent. If anyone must suffer, it must be he; never Rose! He moved closer to Rosie, and quickly, and as skilfully as he had seen her perform the same act, he slipped the pocketbook out of her coat pocket, and passing it in his own stepped back to his former position. The car stopped, and Joe breathed a long sigh of relief as he saw Rosie leave the car and descend the steps. At any other time, he would have followed her, glad of the opportunity of walking with her to her home; but now he could not. He must ride on a little farther, and collect his thoughts — not once had he thought of himself as being in danger. Never had the thought entered his mind as to what might happen should be be discovered with the purse on him. But as the car moved on it did occur to him that he was standing there possessed of another man ' s property, to which he had no claim at all ; that he was a thief, or would be termed so, should the old man discover his loss, and start a search for its whereabouts. What should he do? He must get rid of it in some way. The very thought of its being in his possession was a torture to his honest soul. The idea of tossing it out of the window occurred to him; but he put it away immediately. It belonged to the old gentleman, and to him only should it be returned. But suppose the old man should think he had stolen it! At this thought his honest soul rebelled. Then before his eyes there flashed a picture of a thin, trembling figure, a shawl clutched tightly about her y) D (TO J cSororian £ c quivering shoulders. As if the vision had called to him, Joe shook himself, and walked up to the old gentleman, who was still engrossed in his letter. It was evident that he would most likely not think of his purse again till he should have need of it. " Sir, " Joe tapped the old man on the shoulder. He blinked at Joe from over his spectacles. " Eh? " he exclaimed, as though awakening out of a dream. Joe drew the purse out of his pocket. " I believe this is yours, is it not? The old man jumped so that he let go the seat he was holding to and almost pitched over on Joe. " To be sure it ' s mine, and how came you with it? " he demanded, harshly. Joe blushed, and with an effort kept back the angry words that rose to his lips, as he held the purse out to him. The old gentleman fairly snatched it from his hand. " Started to take it, and got scared, didn ' t you? " he sneered. At this, the people, whose attention had been attracted by the scene, giggled. Joe ' s face was crimson. " Be glad that you have it, sir; and let it go at that, " he said shortly, and leaned over and pressed the bell. As he walked home from the corner, the conflict in his heart was great. What should he do? Should he marry Rosie, in spite of what had happened? Should he take to himself as wife a woman who was a thief? Should he let the love in his heart wipe out the sn of the deed? Should he marry her, and never by any word or action let her know that he had been a witness of her weakness? For a long time he walked, regardless of where his footsteps led him. The storm had ceased, and a few stars had begun to appear in the heavens above. He walked on, gazing up at them, as though seeking from them an answer. Then it seemed that, from behind those stars, an answer did come. He stopped suddenly, his eyes still fixed on the stars above. But now another picture was formed, a picture in the heavens. Pla.nly he saw the figure of a worn little eld woman, with a ragged, gay-colored volume in her hand. At her knee a child sat, drinking in the words she read. Then it seemed he heard a feeble voice comforting a child ' s shattered hopes: " Yet thou, lad, may still be a knight. Remember at all times to do all for the woman you love; then will you have proved yourself a knight, indeed. " " Ah, " he mused to himself, " ' Twas a wise little old woman, my grandmother; a wise little old woman — And the smile on his lips, the determination about his mouth, needed no words to tell the story that Joe Kendon would never depart from those wise old teachings. And as Joe retraced his steps to Rosie ' s home, surely an angel in heaven, who had once been that grandmother on earth, must have caught up the threads of that old tale, and echoed, " Well done, my good and faithful knight. This day hast thou done well. " — C. S. ' 16 Sixty-Three STAFF L. BEWLEY N. BEWLEY L. N. McGEE Wyt Jltrror STAFF E. J. LAWRENCE M. NELSON U. PETTIGREW CHRISTMAS NUMBER DECEMBER 17, 1914 Dr. Pruitt is much con- cerned over the contagious malady which seems to he affecting the lady members of the Faculty. The symp- toms are nightly mutterings of the following character, " Chain five, picot, three double stitches, ten single, reverse. " Miss Maddox is thought to be responsible for spreading the disease. LOST — Louise, out of Bet- tie ' s sight. FOUND— Marie, in Geo- metry. " Heads of bald men all re- mind us Fickle hair will surely die, And, departing, leave behind it Nature ' s playground for a fly. ROBBIE: I hate to be shut up in a school. LUVONIA (maid): Yes, it sho ' is combining. Example of a remote cause of disease: Last spring, Mr. Faithfull got his feet wet; and now he has a cold. PERSONAL Julia: Rita, you look like something had scared you up out of the bushes. Rita: Well you look like the thing what scared me up. Miss N. Smith: I wouldn ' t marry the best man on earth.

Girls of all shapes and M k sizes, all faces and features, tramped loudly into the room — laughing girls, merry girls, W gloomy girls, and girls who looked as though they did not know where they belonged, undecided whether they should join the majority of that throng, whose mouths seemed to have been molded in an upward twist; or (if by some powerful discovering agency they should chance upon tho:e who might possess a small amount of any serious thinking process) should unite themselves with their feeble ranks. And the meaning of this gay, loud, and seemingly carefree throng? The object? Perhaps, for cne merely witnes:ing the scene, it would have been hard to believe that it was of the deepest and most serious nature. This was the night of the regular meeting of the " Student Board " of Anderson College. Now the object of this all-important meeting was to consider the members of the Faculty; to discuss their work, their conduct, and their acts; and to see if their undertakings met with their austere approval. And although their voices were pitched to the highest key, with the exception of an occasional bass- like note from a rather large young lady; and notwithstanding the fact that their laughter rang louder each moment, their hearts felt keenly the weight of their responsibility; and their seriousness of purpose, though deeply ingrained, could not have been doubted. The president knocked, or rather pounded, loudly upon the table with her gavel. " The meeting will please come to order, " she shrieked above the noise and chatter. " Young ladies, " she continued, rising to her full height; " to say that I am angry would by no means express to you my feelings. No, by no means am I angry. I am only shocked and hurt to think that you would for an instant forget the dignity expected of you as students of Anderson College, and come romping in like a crowd of school-children. Indeed, one would think you to be a crowd of noisy teachers rather than a group of dignified students. " She paused, seemingly to push in a place a few loose hairpins; in reality, to congratulate herself, secretly, upon the powerful speech she was delivering, and to collect her thoughts concerning what should follow. " Young ladies. " she went on, " I have often said this to you before, and I thought you already understood it to be true; we must always bear in mind that we come here strictly for business. It is the function of the organization to consider the teachers who are attending the institution, seeing if their works and acts are in keeping with the regulations of the College, at all times undertaking to find out where we may aid them in whatsoever they may do. After another pause, she continued, " The business of the meeting is now in order, and as usual we will ask the secretary to call the teachers ' names. " " Madame President, " spoke the secretary, a quiet and demure young person. " Madame Secretary, " returned the president. Sixty-Seven LO DH ife rarian G- " You hear the first name which has just been read, young ladies — Dr. Kinard. Being our most advanced teacher. Dr. Kinard should render very good work indeed. Let me see, Miss Schultz, I believe that Dr. Kinard is in your English class. How is he getting along. Miss Schultz? " " The only thing I can find to criticize in Dr. Kinard ' s work is that he emphasizes too much the baneful influence of the ' Movies ' in literature. He seems to think — " ; but her voice being almost drowned in the loud burst of laughter which followed her remark, she stopped suddenly to gaze blankly about her. The president flushed deeply, and called for order. " Miss Schultz, I fear that either you did not hear my question, or else you must be day-dreaming. My question was regarding your English class; but if Dr. Kinard is not able to maintain an unprejudiced attitude in presenting one of the most vital questions in our literary world today, this work must certainly be looked into. As 1 understand it. Dr. Kinard is ' unwilling ' for students to patronize the picture shows two or three times a week; but I do not think he has been impressed with the educational value of the ' Movies. ' I will appoint Miss Anna Tribble, who I understand is well versed upon that particular phase of the subject, as a com- mittee of one to speak to Dr. Kinard concerning this matter. " A chorus of hearty approval followed, all joining in except Miss Julia Ledbetter, who insisted that Dr. Kinard was right, and that she sincerely agreed with him in the stand he took. " The next name, Miss Jackson, " said the president. " Mr. Clarence Miraculous Faithfull, " read the secretary. " Yes, Mr. Faithfull! If I remember correctly, he is the one who teaches Psychology, Bible, etc. Has anyone anything to say about Mr. Faithfull? " " Madame President. " " Miss Petligrew. " " Mr. Faithfull is really a good teacher, but there is one thing about which I think he should be spoken to. In making the announcements in the dining-room, you know it is his custom to knock with his spoon or knife on the piece of chinaware nearest him. Now I am sure it must be due to nervousness on his part, but he has either damaged or utterly destroyed many of Mrs. Johnson ' s most valuable pitchers, and bent much of her most precious silver. " " Thank you, Miss Pettigrew. It is indeed an offence which at present may seem light, but which in time might result in serious consequences. I am certain that Mr. Faithfull would appre- ciate it if one of you young ladies would speak to him about it. I will ask the Secretary to proceed. " " The next name, Madame President, is that of Miss Helen Smith. " " Yes, our Lady Principal! I believe I have heard very few complaints in regard to her lately. What is that, Miss Ledbetter? " she asked, turning to a young lady who was wildly waving her arms in an effort to attract attention. " Well, I think it is time Miss Smith was letting the girls have a reception. Say; don ' t you-all? " she broke off, turning inquiringly to her fellow-students. Whereupon there followed a hearty burst of " Well I guess-so ' s, " and such another buzz of conversation started that the president came near upsetting the table as she called for order. " That ' s a good suggestion; one that will be attended to immediately. In the meantime, I will ask you. Miss Ledbetter. to begin collecting the funds necessary for the affair. " " All right; I was just going to say I had already started collecting the money. " " I believe there is nothing more to say about Miss Smith. Before going any further, I would ask Miss Nelson if she would mind stepping outside, and requesting Mr. Williams not to sing quite so loud. The teachers must remember that we are trying to carry on a business meeting in here, and they must be less noisy while we are thus occupied. The Secretary may read the next name. " " Mr. Goode ' s is the next one, Madame President. " " Ah, yes. Has anyone a criticism to offer concerning Mr. Goode ' s work? " " I ' d just like to say one thing about Mr. Goode. The other day " But she got no further, for at that point she was cut short in her remarks by a sofa pillow hurled at her by a rather irate young lady. " Look here, Maude Hamilton; if you say anything about Mr. Goode, I ' ll " and a second pillow cast in the same direction completed her threat. A scramble followed, and it was some time before order was again restored. " Young ladies, " exclaimed a flushed and angry President, " if better order cannot prevail during the remainder of the meeting, I shall have to call for an adjournment. As for you, Miss Henry and Miss Hamilton, your conduct is really unpardonable. I would suggest, Miss Henry, that it would do you no harm to ask Mr. Goode to exchange a few lessons in Music for several in ' Good Manners and Good Form. " She looked up just in time to catch two malicious glances cast in her direction. " The next name? " " Miss Sarah Stranathan. " " Miss Lawrence, being bound to her by closer ties than most of us, could perhaps report upon Miss Stranathan. " " Madame President, " broke in the Secretary, " that reminds me — I received the other day a letter from the head of the Woman ' s Suffrage Association, asking us to send a representative to their annual meeting next month. Miss Stranathan has gained fame from her speeches on that profound subject. I think we could find no better representative. " " An excellent suggestion. We must by all means be represented at this meeting. Is there a motion that we send Miss Stranathan? " " Miss Wakefield says she ' s going to represent us! " " But Aunt Sar-r-rah ' says she ' s going! " v Jfalmnmi c, ' " Indeed ! Really ! I must say that these teachers are becoming rather presumptuous. I think it would teach them a lesson they would not soon forget to allow neither of them to go. What say you? " Emphatic nods and hums of approval. " Very well, we will appoint someone from our own midst. Is there a motion to that effect? " " Let me go! " " No, I ' m going! " " I want to go! " In vain did the President pound the table for order. Then she decided to wait until they talked themselves out. Finding, however, thai that blessed time would never arrive, she made one more desperate attempt at restoring order. This time she was somewhat successful. " Young ladies, " she began indignantly. " Oh, there goes the dinner-bell! " " Oh, let ' s go! I ' m tired of this old meeting, anyway, " said another. The President breathed a sigh of relief. Her dignity once more restoring itself, she began: " The remainder of the business may stand until next meeting. Perhaps, since the bell has rung, we had better adjourn. We have had a very good meeting. I hope that you will not consider these meetings in any way lightly. They are of the most serious nature, and their purpose by no means trivial, although the teachers have not, as yet, come to recognize their importance and significance. I feel sure, however, that they will soon do so, and that the time is not far henc when they will consent to the meetings of the Students ' Council taking the place of the old and out-of-date ' Faculty Meetings. ' Before leaving, let me admonish you to remember at all times your position, and the dignity that should accompany it, as students of this school. Let me admonish you to behave you elves in a very seemly manner; ever to guard your acts and your conduct. Each of you has a personal responsibility, for it is to you that these teachers are looking for precept and example. In conclusion (at this welcomed word, a joyful sigh arose), " I would ask that you do not judge these teachers too harshly, for some day we, too, may be teachers (Several emphatic " Nevers " punctuated her remarks). As a whole, I am sure that they are a very good and well-behaved set of teachers, and I cannot but feel that they are endeavoring to do their best; we must not expect them to be perfect. We must not forget that, when all is said and done, they are, afer all, only ' teachers. ' The meeting stands adjourned. " — C.
