If you care, you too may see_ There are faeries.—Verily, There are faeries. There are faeries. I could swear I have seen them busy, where Roses loose their scented hair, In the moonlight weaving, weaving, Out of starlight and the dew, Glinting gown and shimmering shoe; Or, within a glowworm lair, From the dark earth slowly heaving Mushrooms whiter than the moon, On whose tops they sit and croon, With their grig-like mandolins, To fair faery ladykins, Leaning from the windowsill Of a rose or daffodil, Listening to their serenade All of cricket-music made. Follow me, oh, follow me! Ho! away to Faerie! Where your eyes like mine may see There are faeries.—Verily, There are faeries. There are faeries. Elves that swing In a wild and rainbow ring Through the air; or mount the wing Of a bat to courier news To the faery King and Queen: Fays, who stretch the gossamers On which twilight hangs the dews; Who, within the moonlight sheen , Whisper dimly in the ears Of the flowers words so sweet That their hearts are turned to musk And to honey; things that beat In their veins of gold and blue: Ouphes, that shepherd moths of dusk— Soft of wing and gray of hue— Forth to pasture on the dew. There are faeries; verily; Verily: | For the old owl in the tree, Hollow tree, He who maketh melody For them tripping merrily, Told it me. There are faeries.—Verily, There are faeries. —MaADIson CAWEIN.

I, Betty Emery, am the only one of that group of eager and hopeful girls who is left. Several unusual parties and the impressive Y. W. C. A. candle lighting service initiated us into Fairfax Hall, so that we immediately felt perfectly at home. We as Freshmen looked on with envy but with anticipation at the various dances given by the upper classmen to which friends from the near-by schools were guests. But we had to be content with a Baby Party, which was more appropriate for our class and which did justice to our little group. The passing of our beloved founder and friend, Mr. John Noble Maxwell, made us realize that we were “‘not at the top but climbing” towards the ideals and hopes which he had inspired in us. The first commencement we witnessed provoked awe and wonderment, but it served as an incentive to make us work harder toward our final goal of ‘“Seniorhood.” CHAPTER II In our Sophomore year, we partook of the fun of initiating new girls into the Land of Make Believe. We also enjoyed many unusual and interesting extracurricula events, such as; The Kreisler concert at the University of Virginia; S. M. A.’s “Struttin’ fo’ de Kake;” Miss Steward’s lecture; and a piano concert by Mrs. Clindblom. When May rolled around, and with it the Junior-Senior Reception, we were not yet privileged to attend, but we were consoled by the thought that we must postpone this pleasure for only one more short year. Commencement with its lovely and impressive exercises made us feel that we were “lifting better up to best,” and were making strides toward our ultimate aim. CHAPTER? IIL Now, we as the Junior Class had two aims towards which to strive: first, to work so that next year we could take up that position of high and mighty Seniors; second, to give the Senior Class a year that they would always remember. To our group we added Jane Nelson, our President, Kitty Gordon, and ‘Muriel Mason. | q Among the events that we shall look back on as never-to-be-forgotten ones are: The V. M. L-U. of Va. football game; Mr. Harold Loring, lecturer on Indian life; The New English Singers at Staunton; The Kingsland Marionettes; and at Charlottes- ville, the well known pianist, Myra Hess. At last came the long-waited-for Junior-Senior Reception. The enjoyable evening spent by the guests, as well as the hostesses, well rewarded us for our efforts in planning this party. So it was that “labor omnia vincit” proved true, for next year we were to be Seniors! CHAPTER IV It finally came true that we were Seniors. Jane Nelson reigned as our Queen; and Kitty Gordon, Muriel Mason, Betty Emery, Lolita Main, Catherine Mulligan, Virginia Munson, and Norma Bernts were her loyal subjects. “Knowledge is power.” With that maxim in mind, we strove to make our last year one that would be indelibly etched on our minds and hearts as one of happiness and accomplishment. Some of the memories we have stored away are: a lovely tea at “Maxwelton;” a a dance at the Fishburne Military School; $. M. A.—F. M. S. football game; S. M. A. Orchestra and Glee Club recital; and concert by Franceska Larsen, soprano. Concerning our home talent, we cannot forget “Friend Hannah” and “The Mikado,” both remarkable and successful productions. As for our class undertakings, we have great pride in the success and enjoyment of the Senior party in October, the Senior Tea Dance in April, and the May Breakfast. The Junior-Senior Reception meant more to us this year than it had meant before, for we were the guests of faultless hostesses—the Junior Class. As our own Commencement drew near, we were left with the feeling that our four years in Fairfax had been a glorious dream, and that we after all had been living in the Land of Heart’s Desire. The reception, recitals, and exercises that took place at Commencement made us feel that we had done our best and were ready to step out into the world through the four gateways of worship, work, play, and friendship. . —Betty Emery, Historian a I I TT EE a The Senior Class Will E, THE loyal subjects of our fairy Queen, Jane Titania Nelson, being light of heart, gay in spirit, and realizing that the army of Calibans has been chased from the Land of Heart’s Desire, do feel it proper and fitting in the Year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and thirty-five, to make certain bequests to those spirits who next will tread the steep but merry hill to the “Land of Make Believe.” Accordingly, we hereby draw up, publish, and declare this our last will and testa- ment. ARTICLES SEcTION I—To Fairfax Hall, our own Alma Mater, we leave a magic spell to be cast over our fairy fancies and youthful dreams that they may come true for our successors. SECTION II—To Miss Post, our fairy godmother, we leave our sincere appreciation and gratitude for her help in making Fairfax Hall a “Land of Heart’s Desire.” SECTION III—To the Maxwells, the competent officers of the “Ariel Troupe,” in ap- preciation for the sympathy, encouragement, and untiring guidance they have bestowed on us during our four years’ sojourn here, we leave a friendship necklace of dewdrop pearls. SECTION IV—To the faculty that safely guided us through our numerous difficulties and misunderstandings, we leave fairy wands as tokens of our undying friendship. ARIIGLESIL PERSONAL BEQUESTS SECTION I—I, Virginia Munson, leave my will power to diet to Peggy Groff. SECTION II—I, Kitty Gordon, leave my boisterous laughter to the dining room and the halls, that its echoes may last throughout the years. SECTION III—I, Betty Emery, leave my quiet ways to Barbara Hartley. SecTION IV—I, Katherine Mulligan, leave my Perfolastic to Violet Ventress. SecTION V—I, Muriel Mason, leave my ablity to sing on perfect pitch to Marjorie White. SECTION VI—I, Jane Nelson, leave my executive ability to Elise Keeney. SECTION VII—I, Lolita Main, leave my grades in Spanish to the future Spanish II class. SECTION VHI—I, Norma Bernts, leave my naturally curly hair to Fifi Fischer. (Note: Fifi, the curl dosen’t come out when you go riding in the snow or rain.) To this document, duly witnessed, we the loyal subjects of the Queen, on this twenty-sixth day of May, in the Year of Our Lord nineteen hundred and thirty-five, do wave our magic wands and in pansy juice afhix our hand and seal. —Louita Main, Attorney.

Since my childhood I had longed to take a trip around the world My wish to have this trip as a graduation gift was unfulfilled. Now, ten years after I left Fairfax, I was taking that trip, not as most people take it— on dirty, rattling, bumping trains, and on rolling, pitching ships—but on a deli- cate, fleecy, white cloud with a fairy-like creature as my pilot. How fast we could go! How breath-taking it was to fly in a minute from my flower garden to Madison, Wisconsin! Here my ethereal little pilot lowered me on a snowflake parchute to the roof of the Good Health Hospital, where very plainly I could see the Queen of our Senior Class, Jane Nelson, dressed in a uniform and minis- tering to the poor sick people. Quickly my little partner and I mounted our cloud again and sailed away to Baltimore, Maryland, where we espied Betty Emery in a mansion on a beautiful estate. Her uniform, which was not unlike Jane’s, told us that Betty was not the mistress of this home, but that she was there in the capacity of a trained nurse, relieving the aches and pains of the old Dowager who lived in the Blue Room. Whew! Making Norway from Baltimore in two and one-half minutes almost took my breath! My little pilot successfully landed our cloud in a beautiful fiord, where she waited until I had a glimpse of Norma Bernts. Goodness, what a cosmopolite ten years of traveling had made of her. She was in Norway for a short reunion with her family before she again set sail. The sprite and I left our mooring in Norway, took a quick trip into Germany, then lazily glided down to Italy in search of Kitty Gordon. We found that she had left Italy some time ago, and was scheduled to make her debut at the Metropolitan Opera House in an hour. At top speed my partner and I raced across the Atlantic, and arrived in New York in time to see Kitty take her numerous curtain calls. Our little cloud became weary, so we coasted down to Pennsylvania, and there we saw a peculiar spectacular sight—a woman undertaker handling a glorious funeral for Luey Hong, who had committed suicide because of his failure to be elected Dictator of the United States. As we got closer, we saw that the undertaker was my classmate, Kay Mulligan, and that she was using an old fashioned hearse, drawn by ten of her own blue-ribbon race horses. As we cruised along on our weary little cloud, it began to weep, and make huge raindrops, on which we glided down to the window-sill of a comfortable, cosy-looking bungalow. When we gained our equilibrium, we peeped into the window and to our amazement saw Ginny Munson and her prosperous-looking husband having dinner. We could hear him explaining how they were to spend the fabulous fee he had collect- ed that day as payment for his winning in court the privilege for the Fairfax girls to use their private airplanes during “rec” hour. Our tiny conveyance became fleecy-white again, and we dashed away full speed ahead. In an incredibly short while we were hovering over an unfamiliar yet beautiful EEE EEE Re city, from which floated a peculiarly familiar voice—one I hadn’t heard fo r ten years. On closer observation we discovered that we were over Mexico City, and there was no mistaking that the voice was Lolita Main’s. The blinking lights in front of the theatre told us that she was the star of the season’s musical comedy hit, ‘SMy Man.” My dream barge left Mexico in a whirl and made record time back to New York. Just before my crack pilot landed me, I insisted that she let me take a peak at Muriel Mason who was in the metropolis training a young violinist who was to enter Fairfax the next fall, and take the place her teacher had held in 1935. Muriel was also a composer of sundry compositions suitable for Rotary Clubs, Church Suppers, Chapel Exercises in Fairfax, Fashion Shows, and Pink Teas. Now since I’d seen all the members of the 1935 graduating class at Fairfax, I was willing to dismiss my darling little pilot and her cloud, and be satisfied with the memories of a glorious trip which had made my childhood dream a reality. —Mouriet Mason, Prophet. . ene he Wak “RL TRA WOLD al 4 oe “p ‘haaioee: wall ee : The Merrymakers Titania’s Palace A silver palace washed by starlight, In the magic forest stood; Elfin voices, elfin music Tinkled sweetly through the wood. In the lighted halls within, the blaze Of jewelled armour glowed, As fairy prince and fairy knight To their queen in homage bowed. Dainty dancers wrapped in moon-mist, Rainbows, stars, and morning dew Whirled and spun to fairy music, Paused—then laughing—dipped anew. A golden bird in a golden cage Sang a song of love and power; A fountain played, star-dust fell, Titania smiling, plucked a flower. The moon its silver crescent dipped Behind a velvet mountain top, The sun rose palely in the East, Six chimes were heard from the fairy clock. The dancers paused, their revels ceased, On silent feet they quickly sped. The palace faded into mist, Rainbows, stars, and morning dew, —Louita Main. i { { uy i ' ’ i i : i MEE SESS High School Junior Class MOTTO “Today we follow, tomorrow we lead” COLORS FLOWER | Blue and Silver White Rose MIs$ CLUT Bin. ihice. 2 oke os gucaneett omer ocait Protec m pane tired ere ue ea ihre postcard emer Sponsor JuLia RAMSAY Yok: Ole ee, eens, os ere ne har einen nee President VIRGIN TAG ILOD Da net = ae CATHERINE ERRETT Betty LINDSEY BERNICE HERSTEIN MaRIAN STONE Marie LAWRENCE HELEN DUNKLE ZAIDA BRAVO SSS BARBARA HARTLEY Rosa WINE ze a ee ee) ei oz | Sophomore and Freshman Class f MOTTO “To be without pretence or sham exactly what men think I am” } COLORS FLOWER Periwinkle and Jade Wisteria !

W. C. A. In the beginning of the year an impressive and beautiful candle lighting service was held in which all af the girls of the school pledged allegiance to the organization. Just before graduation another candle lighting service was held, the purpose of which was to make indelible the ideals, aims, and hopes which were inspired by the Y. W. C. A. during the year. Leica Throughout the year, the Y. W. sponsored the Sunday vesper services, which were held on each Sabbath evening, with Waynesboro Ministers and Fairfax students alternat- ing as leaders. Under the student leaders, a conn-cted study of the New Testament and the life of Christ was presented. At the Christmas season, the girls selected proteges from a list of the unfortunate children in the vicinity and helped to make their Christmas brighter and m-rrier. The formal presentation of gifts to these children was a part of the Vesper Service on “White Sunday” evening—the last meeting before the Christmas vacation. While the Y. W. C. A. has been particularly concerned with the spiritual develop- ment of its members, it has not been unmindful that social development is a vital part of its work, and has sponsored several enjoyable parties and entertainments during the year. or SE 1 CORR ©) 0b y ene erent ret a eeteire rein at hu onus chee sa tic reads Suc ans Sponsor MARION. ‘CHAPPELD: Sh. cua een ats etree eee ae ee eee Treasurer JEANETTE MAS WEE Di ttee ate teg aot eet ieee ee eee re Librarian and Accompanist The Glee Club of Fairfax Hall is a worthy evidence of the musical talents and interests of the student body. Each Wednesday evening those who are “musically minded’’ assemble to practice, under the splendid direction of Miss Clute, programs for chapel and for various other oc- casions. The most outstanding and creditable achievement of the Glee Club this year was the presentation of the “Mikado,” Gilbert and Sullivan’s popular light opera. The produc- tion, which was given in its entirety on March 29, was deemed a tremendous success. The applause from an enthusiastic audience was shared by the Fairfax Players, who worked faithfully in conjunction with the Glee Club in giving this excellent production. The Glee Club has succeeded in increasing the musical activities of Fairfax Hall students and has been a source of pleasure to both its members and its audiences.

This body of singers, under the direction of Miss Clute, has become an integral part of the school life. Throughout the year at regular intervals, the Choir has sung in chapel. Among the most interesting and delightful programs was one containing an aria from ‘Hansel and Gretel;” “Lift Thine Eyes,” from “Elijah;” and several folk songs. The Fairfax Hall Choir assists in the Y. W. C. A. meetings and does much to add to the dignity and impressiveness of the services. This group has sung upon several oc- casions at the Methodist and the Presbyterian Churches of Waynesboro. On March 29 the Choir lent its support to the Glee Club and the Fairfax Players in their excellent production of ‘The Mikado.” The Choir completed a successful year in June with its contribution to the Baccalaureate Service.

The entire evening afforded much pleasure to all, and at the same time gave an opportunity to invite new members to join the troupe. The first production of the season was “Friend Hannah,’ which presented the tragic love story of King George III and a beautiful Quaker maid. The brilliancy with which the first act opened ‘continued throughout the play. The properties were especially appropriate, for all were genuine antiques, even to a small harpsichord. The Christmas pageant was surpassed in its histrionism only by its beauty. The indescribable loveliness of the Nativity Tableau will remain after many other pictures of Fairfax are forgotten. The aes music which accompanied the play seemed almost etherial, and the singing of Handel’s ‘Hallelujah Chorus” by the Fairfax Choir was superb. On March 29 the Fairfax Players assisted the Glee Club in giving “The Mikado,” a production which because of its finish and brilliance was enthusiastically received by an appreciative audience. Fast becoming a tradition at Fairfax, “Robin Hood” retained its popularity of last year as a Com- mencement production. The outdoor pool and the surrounding terraces afforded ideal scenery and background; with the aid of costumes, horses, and Maypoles, the campus was transformed into a veritable Sherwood Forest. eee eee eee 2 RS A RT A SB a RE ERE LS FOIA LI EE EI LIE I IO yi TT TT j AK Me y= ) VRS cme ELOSKIN Seater eens ne neha yer be LE Re ace in eee eee ae Oe te eee Sponsor i OR EN CR MED A TUN ES Wren ee tet he en a ie Sere 9 Rees leh ahs ips e casero eBid Peat snakes Got President POSE PRIN ERD ARNE IT (ae ee tee rays peace eas wens octee te cee Treasurer and Scribe LECLAIRE JOYCE MartIaN CHAPPELL ¥ JEANETTE MAXWELL Mary LEE Capy LILLIAN PRICE BERNICE HERSTEIN f The members of the Scribbler’s Club, as yet the baby organization of the school, met and organized in nineteen hundred thirty-five under the sponsorship of Mrs. ; Hoskins.

A., as is its custom, spon- sored a very spooky, yet delightful Hallowe'en party. In January the classes vied with one another for honors in basketball, another popular sport. During the winter season Badminton and ping-pong maintained their status as favorite indoor sports at Fairfax. In the spring, tennis and golf replaced indoor sports, and shouts from the swim- ming pool reminded that Red Cross Life Saving was well under way. The Athletic Exhibition on the evening of June 8 brought to a close a happy and successful year in athletics. — HocKEY BASKETBALL VoLLEY BALL SWIMMING = sn 2s sa = a 2 a SD SES A FEL SII EEE TS SESE ET = SE SSL SE TE RIDING he a pe a oa | Court Fairy Queen and Her The hy = Ee - MISS FAIRFAX TITANIA (JANE NELSON) BES Pes 1 UDENg: ARIEL (VIOLET VENTRESS) BEST FRIEND—BEST ATHLETE PUCK (Mayorre PICKER) A Wish Sometimes I wish that I might Go back to the lovely shore, And watch the waves at twilight, Rolling in with their deep, sonorous roar. I Long to sit there silent On the sea-washed sand, And let my restless thoughts be content To glide smoothly o’er the glistening band Of green and gold that goes Beyond the sun-burnt horizon To some far-off place, Where tropical winds blow Languorously, and lift the lazy palms in place, To gaily gaze upon the azure blue— As though that were all they had to do. I wish that I might Go back to that lovely shore And watch the waves at twilight, Rolling in with their deep, sonorous roar. —JOSEPHINE BARNETT. The Fairies’ Ball The Queen of Fairies held a ball Just within our garden wall, And she invited every sprite To help her celebrate the night. Each came, dressed in her loveliest gown Of rose-leaf silk, with ice-jewels bound; And they did dance with steps so fine, And sing, and drink their dewdrop wine. But some, I think, imbibed too much, For they began to throw, in such A manner—to my dismay— The loveliest of their jewels away. They madly tossed on bush and tree Their strings of finest jewelry. Old Mr. Moon climbed o’er the wall, Making shadows slim and tall. At first he frowned with all his might, Then turned each jewel into a light That shamed each fairy into seeing Her resemblance to a human being; And each went home to sleep it off On fairy couch and bed so soft. Next day, before the culprits woke, Sol taught a lesson, played a joke; For filled with wrath of drunken play He melted all their jewels away. —LeECLAIRE JoYcE. Stardust I lived, a blind and twisted shape That saw no light, that knew no love; A cynic stifled ’neath the cap Of Logic, from the stars above: I looked with mockery on the Spring Despised the robin’s crimson best And held his hymn a hateful thing. My soul was dwarfed with lifeless zest. I screamed in pain and hid my face, But furies held me in their sway While burning flowers plunged from space And rained gold pollen, as I lay - Upon my shriveled, twisted soul; And lo! its withered shape was whole! —LEC.arrE Joyce. Pinkie INKIE, for that was the fairy lady’s name, was weeping bitterly because she couldn’t P attend the fairy Beauty Contest which was to be held that very night. While she was weeping, Tripit came flying by. Trip was a gallant little fairy man and a great favorite among the ladies of the court, so of course he couldn’t pass by a maiden in distress. He flew to a large red tulip across from Pinkie’s white one and said in his squeaky little voice, “Why are you crying?” The little mite looked up at the intruder, and as she did, Tripit nearly fell from his tulip swing; she was so lovely. Indeed she was, and her name suited her perfectly—skin as pink as cherry blossoms, golden brown hair, large starry eyes, and a perfect little body which would fit in the palm of a human hand. Although Pinkie’s family was classed F. F. F. (first family of Fairyland) in the Fairyland social register, it had been greatly affected by the depression, and Pinkie no longer had lovely clothes. Because of this she had not mingled with other fairies of the court for several years. This accounted for Trip’s not recognizing her, as he was the Chief Messenger of the King recently come from Dew City to Blossomville. “I’m crying” she answered, “because I can’t go to the Fairy Beauty Contest.” It was plain that Tripit meant to help her. However, he told her she must stop weeping and practice the newest flying dip. You see the fairies were to be judged not only for their beauty but also for their grace in flying. He looked at her for five long fairy seconds and then disappeared. Now Tripit was something of a connoisseur on styles; indeed, at one time he had seriously con- sidered designing fairy court gowns. In a short time he reappeared carrying across his arm a gossamer drape of mist. The little man gathered a handful of rose petals— pink, rose-red, and scarlet hued—and with the rose petals proceeded to dye the misty cloth, matching the color with the faint rosy glow of the dying sunset. When he had finished, the cloth was a silvery rose color—material fit for the Queen! He draped the robe around Pinkie, fastening it with diamond dewdrop clasps. On her ee ea Se curls he placed a wreath made from the tiniest rose petals. It seemed that Trip couldn’t — do enough, Next he brought forth silver sandals made from the finest cobwebs. He flew to the western sky and pulled down a tiny fluffy cloud. From this he fashioned a lovely cloak which, when put over the silvery rose dress, made Pinkie look like a fairy dream. The lady of the moon had lit her lamp, and all the street lights of heaven had come on, drenching the garden in silvery sheen. The little evening breezes were play- ing tag in the garden, making all the flowers nod to and fro to one another. Pale mignonettes, roses, hollyhocks, pinks, tulips, poppies, and many others were looking their very best this evening. It was almost time for the gala affair to begin. Oh! There were the little elfin scouts with their firefly torches leading the way for the goblin slaves who were carrying the huge calla lily thrones. Next came the royal guard of fays and gnomes on their horsefly steeds. And then! Their Majesties the King and Queen approached! What sovereigns in their fairy coaches of sea shells drawn by four handsome dragon-flies! There was a buzz, buzz, buzz! Why, of course it was the fairy court approaching, and the fluttering of their little wings sounded like the buzzing of many bees. The dainty King and Queen were seated on their thrones with their court around them. Many of the fairy maidens sat on the magnolias around the thrones, and the little gnomes and fays each picked a flower chair. Directly in front of the throne was a lovely sunken pool which gave back a picture exquisite in its beauty! The firefly lantcrns and glowworm torches of the little elfin men blinked on and off, making the EPL IL ITY EP LEM GEM ALT BEDI IOP Saat CE picture clearer at some times than at others. A little fay was ringing a lily-of-the- valley, and the silvery chimes of the tiny bells tinkled in the clear air of the garden. The moonlight playing about showed at intervals tiny waterfalls and cascades of dew falling from the stones of the rock garden. From a nearby hedge came faint strains of fantastic music. The fairy orchestra was composed of crickets and grasshoppers playing on acorn drums or dew cymbals, and one little fellow was playing a harp with golden strings made from moonbeams. The soloist of the evening was a nightingale that trilled sweet songs at various intervals. By this time the flower seats were all taken and there was a fairy lady and gentleman on every blossom of the two huge magnolias. We must remember that this was one of the greatest of the fairy fetes and tiny people had come from Blosomville, Dew City, Poppytown, and numerous other fairy villages to watch the spectacle. At last! The fairy trumpet heralding the way for the parade! Such lovely fairy ladies hadn’t been seen in many long years. The gowns were gorgeous, made from the finest rose de chine, cobweb crepe, and dew satin. Blond fairies, brunette fairies, and even red-haired fairies flew and tripped around the judges’ stand, which was, by the way, a hug? toadstool. Everyone thought the contest was over, and a faint murmur of tinkling voices could be heard, when sud- denly from out of nowhere appeared a little fay who bowed and flew aside to usher in the loveliest vision the fairies had ever seen. Every fairy gave a tiny fairy gasp as the unknown beauty in the silvery rose gown flew gracefully around the toadstool and then danced to and fro on a tiny shaft of moonlight. All seemed anxious to know who this exquisite creature was except one who, although he clapped a fairy clap with the others, smiled smugly as Pinkie returned to join the group on the mushroom benches near the judge’s stand. After several long fairy minutes, the judges announced the winner to be the “Unknown Silver Rose.” Of course this was Pinkie, and her tiny heart was beat- ing so fast it made her little wings flutter! Tripet was the first to congratulate her, after the King and the Queen, which made her tiny heart beat so fast it nearly took her breath away. Already the orchestra was tuning up for the ball, and Tripit, the dream fairy of all the fairy maidens, asked Pinkie to be his partner for the evening. The silver dream brigantine, which was sailing through the dark blue sea and tossing on the cloudy white caps, was soon moored outsid: a bedroom window. The mistress of the moon turned out her lamp and retired to let her brother, Mr. Sun, keep watch. Mr. Sun was already creeping up in the eastern sky and peeping through the same bedroom windw. A tiny breeze made the brigantine bump against its dock, and a sleepy-eyed little girl awoke to a beautiful morning and to the realization she’d been “Lady for a Night.” FLORENCE BARNES Prologue To write sincerely, and to turn at will A drifting fancy into words, One must scribble lightly first upon some inner page, And with a bluebird’s feather for a quill, Dip deep into the crystal drop that rests within the heart Of one red velvet rose. And one must gather all the loveliness that one knows— The laughing bubble of a brook that brought A fallen petal drifting down its stream, Awood-dove’s call, the glancing beauty of the stars themselyes— And one must needs ask the help of elves, The punctuation mark of dreams. —VIOLET VENTRESS. Silence Silence is a multi-colored thing That makes the soul weep and sing. In the place Where angry words alone remain, There is stricken Silence writhing in speechless pain, Waiting only to sink despairingly upon its face. The Silence that speaks the heart’s supreme design— Mightier than the mightiest word ever flung— Explains the beauty of the song unsung, And reaches heights that weakly words can never find. Silence is a strange, fantastic thing That makes this life a golden string. —JOsEPHINE BARNETT On Trying to Write a Poem First I get some notebook paper, Then I point my Parker’s taper. I sit a while, and then I jot A line or two, and then I blot. Then I ramble up and down, And screw my face into a frown. I bite my nails and tear my hair, And al] the while just sit and stare. I gaze upon some books piled high, But there’s no inspiration nigh. Then I get a sudden shock— The lightbell rings—it’s ten o’clock. In vain [’ve tried a poem to write, For all Pve done is sit tonight. I guess I must be mighty dumb, But inspiration just won’t come! LILLIAN PRICE A Prayer God, guide me every day, Teach my lonely heart to pray. Give me strength to climb the road; Let me gladly bear the load. God, make my every thought to be Some sweet psalm to sing to Thee. —JOsEPHINE BARNETT. mew gS ———— MIKADO THE Rosin Hoop a a ee a a Entertainment and Social Calendar 1934 Old girls’ reception to new girls... fun........

Limericks FLORENCE BARNES Most people wait till one’s dead To heap compliments on his head; But you so rate, We'll say you’re great While you’re alive, instead. JOSEPHINE BARNETT There’s Paderewski and Hess, we know, Who the world their talents show; But you'll find our own star Will surpass them by far, For we’ve great hopes for our Jo. NORMA BERNTS Her hair is like spun gold, Her form did Venus mold; Her cheerful way, Her smile so gay Will aid her till she’s old. ZAIDA BRAVO We like her accent and her charm, And we feel quite sure that no harm Will come to this Miss Who lives in the bliss Of protection neath Dame Fortune’s arm. MARY LEE CADY Her eyebrows grow in a way That makes each one of us say, “Oh, please don’t pluck, They’re surely good luck; And, what’s more, we like them that � ”� way. MARION CHAPPELL We like that part you had When you raved and stormed like mad; Though your acting was good, We all understood You found it hard to be bad. CATHERINE COYNER We hardly know you at all, For since you began in the fall, Your time you co nsume In Miss Maxwell’s room, Except for Commercial Law. MARJORIE CRANDALL And then there was Marjorie Crandall, To whom Venus could not hold a candle; She lives in hot water Because, said the daughter, She found Burns so pleasant to handle! HELEN DUNKLE With softened looks and smiles, She many a heart beguiles. We’re in a position To judge disposition, And hers isn’t equaled for miles. BETTY EMERY True patience is better than riches; If typing could only make stitches, She’d free those twelve brothers And save many others With sweaters that broke spells of witches. CATHERINE ERRETT Then there’s a girl from Ohio Who keeps us in stitches—oh, my, oh! She puts us in panics With all of her antics, This charming young girl from Ohio. LOUISE FISCHER You like her as soon as you meet her, The gods with kindness did treat her;.. She’d accomplish ’fore long Success with her song If she were not a “lotus eater.” KITTY GORDON Katrushka, for what suits her better, It’s Kitty in each single letter; Her voice, rich and rare , Her heart and her hair Were found to be gold when we met her. PEGGY GROFF Oh fates, if I only could With Hanzel and Gretal have stood When their eyes discovered And longingly hovered On that house made entirely of food. BERNICE HERSTEIN Some day you’ll make your mark If to Fortune’s knock you hark; You're filled with grace Of form and face af And own ambition’s spark. BARBARA HARTLEY Of your intellect we’re well aware, Of your athletic ability, rare; But when you sang and fanned, We could only stand In speechless surprise and stare. BE GEYSLOUSHIETON We asked, “Oh Dickey’s bird, why Do you sit and moon and sigh? She said, “Oh, dear, I'd love it here If ’twere closer to town, oh my!” LECLAIRE JOYCE We’ve heard your songs for hours In your room, the halls, and the showers; We'd like to suggest With very much zest We wish you had tried the towers. ELISE KEENEY Her hands slide from pose to pose, She’s pert from her head to her toes; For chief assets We place our bets On her eyes and quaint Irish nose, BARBARA KERR She’s borrowed Miss Goldy lock’s hair, Which curls in a way that is rare; We’re sure that she will Never one minute kill Except when she’s knitting with care. BEVERLEY KING A Puck, that was sent to earth To fill our days with mirth. She’s small in size, Yet one’s surprized How much to us she’s worth ELIZABETH KLINE Hickory, dickory, dock, She’s as quiet as the mouse in the clock; If she’d even stoop To sometimes snoop, She’d give to us all a great shock. MARIE LAWRENCE With her grace almost sublime, Her dancing, most divine, Is duly noted And always voted The best by each stag line. BETTY LINDSEY Her voice is like a chime Heard at mellow eve’n time; Hear heart is gold. Her courage bold Is an armor of truth woven fine. MARGARET McGEHEE Your houskeeping’s not so good; Sometimes you don’t act as you should; But tho you’re bad, We're almost glad And woudn’t change you if we could. LOLITA MAIN She has the gift of song, And it never takes her long To move your heart To take her part Even though she’s wrong. MURIEL MASON Thoush we must say adieu When this school year is thru, We'd like to know Before we go If there’s one thing you can’t do. JEANETTE MAXWELL We’re sure her laugh she took From a babbling, tinkling brook; But please don’t insist On an attribute list, For that would fill up this book. CATHERINE MULLIGAN We'd like to ask in this rhyme (For the pictures you paint are sub- lime. ) Could we join forces And ride your horses And come up to see you sometime? VIRGINIA MUNSON The personification of honey! And if charm could be used for money, She’d have no trouble In obtaining double The share of a life that is sunny. JANE NELSON “Love envieth not and is kind.” This verse she brings to mind; It shows as well What we would tell As any words one could find. MARJORIE PICKER This verse superfluous seems; The statistics and the teams All prove her worth, Personality, and mirth, Good luck, “Crip”, and fulfilment of dreams. PAILEIAINSPRICE She walks with a Southern crawl; She talks with a Southern drawl; But tho slow in her actions, She’s blessed with attractions That make her endeared to us all. JULIA RAMSAY You’d know her a princess by sight, Just made for a brave handsome knight; If she’d lived long ago, He’d have conquered his foe And carried her off in the night. STEELESSHERW OOD We never could quite guess The secret of her success Until, we recall, She drove a white ball Across the campus—no less! FRANCES STEPHENSON We thought we saw a man Cloaked head and foot and hand; But we did make A great mistake, Cause it was only Fran. MARION STONE We’re in a curious mind, So we would like to find Why you feel better With a Baltimore letter, Before we end this ryhme? VIRGINIA TODD Like magic grinding mill, Her closet the fairies fill; So tho she tore Each dress she wore, There’d surely be scores left still. VIOLET VENTRESS In mind she’s keen and bright; In heart she’s strong and right; Tho we must part, She’s in our heart DOLLY WASEK For her to think is a care; Her knowledge of Fishburne is rare; She knows their names And favorite dames, And always has news to spare. PRISCILLA WEBBER She’s as clever as any old fox, But as quiet as a stored-away box. We'd like to know Before we go Did you ever finish those socks? MARJORIE WHITE She’s one little maid of three Who, besides being pleasing to see, Has the humor of Puck And is certain of luck Yet far removed from sight. s Wherever she happens to be. ROSA WINE If Rosa in class is slow And her lessons she dosen’t know, We find it’s true To this it’s due— Over the week-end, she had a beau!

The first means that every detail in your book be of the highest order. It means that the product shall be as nearly flawless as possible. We be- lieve that our books have this quality as year after year they receive honors in all contests entered. The word service is usually depicted as meaning to produce some thing in due time. We feel that in our work this word has a broader meaning. Our service on your yearbook means giving the editor and staff helpful criticisms, ideas that are new and different, layouts that are attractive and years of ex- perience to help you make your imaginative ideas—printed realizations.
