QUHIKZHM E E 2: mm DONNYBROOKLET Zilmmwugwx gemma HE First news that greeted us as Seniors, that Dr. Killicott was to leave Coucher in order to work with the Food Administration, was a verifica- tion of the rumors many of us had already heard. and had refused to believe because it couldn't be 50f and nhow could we ever get along without him P Then we were far from our present realization of the war and its demands upon us: and it was with difficulty that we resigned our- selves to this loss. In time, however, we were so proud to have him there in such important service that we reconciled ourselves to his absence, and made the most of the Sunday afternoons which he so generously shared with us. As soon as we had convinced ourselves that we were not nseeing things and that 1921 was not a transient young army, but had come to stay, we con- sidered it high time to enter the Seniors, and though but 96 strong, attempt to have everyone become acquainted with everyone else. We did so by making our Senior welcome to the Freshmen a literal tttea'i at which cookies and tea were served by the class officers at a number of little tables scattered about the rotunda.

Points of view, philosophies of life, estimates of what is worth while and of what counts most in the long run, standards of service and of individual usefulness, all are being revised and regrouped into new kaleidoscopic mental pictures? To add to the general abnormality of the year, while the weather was colder than it had been for 40 years, we were trying desperately at the same time to hoard our one ton of coal, and to make it heat the II college buildings.
