McM. —’14 THE SPRING AND THE VIOLET Mother earth had many children; among them was one named Violet. She was exceedingly beautiful and had a countless num her of suitors. She was never,seen with her other sisters, but could always be found in the woods among the birds and flowers. One of her suitors, Apollo, was determined to win her. He had tried by playing to her on different instruments, by making the birds sing more sweetly, but all was in vain. At last he determin- ed to get her by force. One day while Violet was roaming about in the wood, she heard a slight noise, and, turning around, she beheld Apollo with a teri- rible expression on his face. She became frightened and began to running as fast as she could. She was soon breathless and, not being able to run any longer, she called for help. In an instant Mother Earth changed her into a httleblue flower which still bears her nsoie. Apollo, seeing that she had disappeared, sat down at the foot of the bill, whore she had passed from view, and began sobbing. Here he sat and wept for many years. He was at last changed into a stons projecting from the hill side. Immediately below this rock may be seen a little spring which was caused by the tears shed by Apollo. During the summer months, both the spring and the violets may be seen on the East bank of Willow River about a half mile from the undergound bridge. F. A. ’14 FAVORITE BOOKS.

A Sophomore stood upon a mountain, And looked into the plain: J He saw something green that looked like waving grass, But looking again, He saw that it was nothing but a Freshman class.
