It must be carefully sought among the thick foliage of schedules, classes, and club meetings, and must be plucked before fully ripe. MONEY: Money accumulates slowly in this climate. When ob- tained it should be sterilized immediately in boiling economy to prevent the development of the bacteria of extravagance and thriftlessness, which are always present. ORIGINALITY: Grows wild in all schools; but frequently goes to seed for lack of care. The more delicate cultivated varieties lack the appetizing freshness of the wild form, but are more easily preserved. An- nuals usually suffer more from lack of this spice than from an over-supply.

And she dv elt under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment. And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedesh-naphtali, and said unto him, Hath not the Lord God of Israel commanded, saying, Go and draw toward mount Tabor, and take with tliee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun ? And I will draw unto thee to the river Kishon Sisera, the captain of Jabin ' s army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into thy hand. And Barak said unto her, If thou wilt go with me, then I will go : but if thou wilt not go with me, then I will not go. And she said, I will surely go with thee. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh. And Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh; and he went up with ten thousand men at his feet: and Deborah went up with him. So God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel. And the hand of the chil- dren of Israel prospered, and prevailed against Jabin the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan. Then sang Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam on that day, saying, Praise ye the Lord for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves. draper ALMIGHTY Father of love, wisdom, and power: thy people here in this temple of light give thee glory and honor. From year to year thy mercies have crowned our lahors, and from day to day thou hast led us on. Be with us still! In this full hour of bless- ing and opportunity and need we sing thy praise and we invoke thy favor. Bless the young women of Virginia that are here assembled. May they truly become prophetesses of God, to whom the children of the land may safely come for counsel and for judgment. May the life and the honor of Virginia be safe in their hands. In the schools and in the homes may their voices be heard, and may each school be a temple and each hearth a shrine because of them. And if ever in any crisis the courage of Virginia manhood should fail, may the valiant spirit of Virginia womanhood, like Deborah of Israel, cry out, Up! this, this, and no other is the day! And in every day of crisis, in every hour of duty, when the hosts of God are called for battle to the heights of Kedesh, may the women of our land rise up with the men, strengthening their hearts, inspiring ' hem with valor, and pointing them to victory. May our labors here be a helpful preparation for all good work hereafter. In Christ ' s name we pray, Amen. Calenbar September 22, 1914. — Registration. September 23. — Classification.

Senior iHagquerabe NE wonderful night in February the Seniors were taken by storm by their honorary member, Miss Gregg. Invitations to a masquerade ball ! ! The whole school shared the overflowing excitement. What are you going to wear? Are you going to be a lady or a gentleman? What kind of mask a ' - e you going to wear— black or white? Greater still was the enthusiasm when, on the night of the ball, hand- some young cadets, sailors, and other gentlemen were getting themselves confused with fairies, Colonial dames, gypsies, Indians, and people of every nationality. Even Faust, with all his cunningness, was in close touch with a priest who had been summoned to join, in holy matrimony, a blushing bride and a brave gallant. The strains of the wedding march were soon changed into a lively one- step and immediately the throng began to sway, this way and that, up and down, round and round, like some work of an ingenious mechanical toy-maker. A dreamy Hesitation soon made more evident the graceful swaying of the dancers. Before fond lovers (damsels in soldier uniform) could whisper into the ears of their partners various words of endearment, the attention of all was transferred to an irresistible Fox Trot. In contrast with this were the feature dances of the Colonial belles and beaux. The minuet and the lancers were presented with so much spirit and grace that an on-looker could easily have imagined that his an- cestors moved before him. Various kinds of games and merry-making soon whiled away the time. The climax of fun and excitement was reached when a human box — or rather, stack of boxes — walked in unannounced. Mystery and curi- osity ran riot. Who could it be? Oft came the lid and what should we see but the beaming face of our President, Mr. Burruss. Surprised anew were the guests when they were presented with ham and eggs, lobster, chicken and fruit — all on plates not much larger than a fifty-cent piece. This, however, proved to be only a sample of the abun- dance of real delicacies that were lavished on all. Junior Ctrcug N the night of December 12th, dumb bells clung to the walls in terror. Never had the gym seen the like of this before. Sawdust strewed the floor, tents stood about, and at one end of the room lay all the soft mats. Through the door poured a miscellaneous crowd. Soon interested spectators were strolling about the tents, marveling at the paper animals so carefully pasted to the green blackboard, and peeping fearfully at the monstrous fat lady — six feet tall and fully ten inches around. Fne organ grinder and Mutt, the monkey, stirred about, aiding and abetting the three never-resting clowns, who industrious- ly told everybody privately and separately what the joke was. Suddenly, at three sharp cracks from the whip of the handsome Ringmaster, silence fell, and the wondrous Comb Band marched in. Vondrous were they indeed, but more wondrous was their music. After them came the dancers, and the dumb bells slightly relaxed their tight hold in order to watch. They continued relaxing and nearly fell off when the Trained Flea showed his brown paws and keen intelligence. But their freedom was short-lived, for the very next numbers were the daring Bare Back Rider and the dauntless Tight Rope Walker. Loudly cracked the whip of the Ringmaster, and the crowd held its breath while the leather horse was led out and planted firmly on its pol- ished oak legs. Then the music struck up a lively air and the agile red- gowned equestrienne danced out and sprang lightly upon the horse ' s back. She went through with a series of intricate steps. When she had twice repeated her success, the cheering crowd permitted her to go. and the Ringmaster announced the next number. Amidst a tense silence the two helpers spread on the floor the rope, which was perilously small, from one end of the stage to the other, and the poor dumb bells tried desperately to hide in the splinters while the fair-haired child started on her journey, painfully balancing herself with a frail parasol. Finally she was safe across, and the cheering crowd began to resuscitate themselves with ice-cream cones — Five cents! The best of the circus was now over; and when the cones had plave 1 out, the crowd drifted hilariously awav, the actors made a few quick changes of scene, and soon the dumb bells and Indian clubs were swinging free and happy again in their places; for in the calm dark only the smell of sawdust remained to tell of the terrors that had been. Hje Junior panquet February the twentieth, nineteen hundred fifteen, was made notable at the State Normal by the most elaborate banquet ever given at the institution, in which the Juniors were hostesses to the Seniors and the Faculty. The decorations and color scheme were adapted finely to commemorate George Washington ' s birthday, favors, place-cards, and candle-shades were decorated with cher- ries and hatcnets. All the Juniors appeared in Martha Washington costume, with powdered hair and beauty curls. Throughout the evening lovely music floated out from behind the palm- and flowers. Plates were laid for one hundred and sixty. Miss Greaves was toast- mistress and .presided with effect and grace. She first called upon Miss Mary Bennett, who gave a toast to the Faculty. Professor James C- Johnston responded in most happy style. Miss Jennie Loving next proposed a toast to the President, Mr. burruss, and that gentleman made a fitting acknowledgement in a speech that was characteristic in both modesty and practical content. Miss Esther Hubbard gave the toast to Mrs. Broo ke, the Matron, and that lady, in responding, proposed a toast to the Juniors, Lucile Early and Annie Douglass, and to the Senior, Laura Jones, who were absent inopportunely ill. Next, the whole corps of Seniors was toast- ed by Miss Virginia Ridenour; and Miss Lillian Millner, the efficient captain of the corps, responded. The toast to Alma Mater was proposed by Miss Margaret Ropp and responded to by Miss Frances Mackey, one of the alumnae, now a member of the faculty. The last formal toast was given to Washington, the Father of His Country, by Miss Ruth Witt, and responded to by Dr. Wayland, the professor of history. Voluntary toasts were then called for. Miss Clarice Guthrie had the glasses clinked and lowered to the training school, Miss Gregg, supervisor of teacher-training, making a happy response. Miss Elizabeth Cleveland T___ - proposed a toast to Miss Natalie Lancaster, of the —  faculty, now absent on leave at Columbia University. Another toast was then proposed to Professors Smithey anci FTeatwole, both of whom were absent at Cincinnati, attending the meeting of the National Educational Association. At the playing of My Country ' tis of Thee every one rose, joined hands in lock-stitch fashion, and moved slowly around the tables and out the door, singing the national song. THE NEW VIRGINIA THEATRE OPERETTA W t American §ixl SYNOPSIS Eva May Hope, an American girl, is travelling in England with her father, who is suddenly called to Germany on business, and arranges for his daughters, accompanied by her maid, to stay with his sister, Lady Melton, at Belford Hall. By some mistake Eva comes to Belford House, a summer school under the direction of Miss Carew, who is expecting a new pupil from Ireland. Eva arrives during the temporary absence of Miss Carew and soon discovers her error, but agrees with two of the girls to stay for a day and pretend that she is the Irish girl. This leads to some amusing inci- dents, as Miss Carew, who is slightly deaf, is completely deceived. CAST Vera Burdett . . . . i , Ruth Fisher Myra Burdett . . . - Pupils at Belford House. ...

OUTDOOR THEATRE SYNOPSIS Gustave Count Woroffski, has married Poleska de Fermestein, only to find that early in the honeymoon she develops such traits of temper and pride as will render their married life insupportable, unless he can find some means to subdue her. He accordingly goes before her to an estate, lately become his by inheritance, where he enters the service of a shoemaker, Ivan, under the assumed name of Alexis Petrovitch, and awaits the coming of his wife. Upon her arrival he tells her that he is Alexis, a serf, having married her on a false pretense, and that she, being his wife, is a serf too- He sets her to sew and spin; he tames her as Petruchio tamed Kath- erine. She, however, manages to send an appeal to the Count ' s sister for protection, and the second act closes with the arrest of Alexis by his own guards. The third act shows a drawing-room in the Chateau Woroffski, where the Baroness has summoned Poleska to state her wrongs. Poleska obtains from the Baroness an order of separation, and, having obtained it, repents, declaring that though her husband is a serf, she cannot leave him. She finally sees Gustave appear in his true character. Love has conquered pride.

Now they put up the sail, Send her from shore, look out proudly upon her, Lift up their voices, together cry, Hail! Hail to the hope of our sisters and mothers! Hail to the joy of our fathers and brothers! And do you ask why the throng is so eager ? Why for this fisherman ' s boat do they cheer? Because of its beauty, its size, or its swiftness? Because it has never a danger to fear ? Nay, ' tis their handiwork. Pray God to helm it, Gird it with strength that nothing o ' erwhelm it. The sea is so treacherous, deep, and so cruel ; Many the dangers that lurking do hide; Our craft is fashioned to weather the tempest — Hail to the builders whose work shall abide! Folk at the wharf, how they wave us God-speed, Sending us forth to humanity ' s need! Many another has gone out before us — Fisherman ' s craft by the same workmen made, Floating the Green and the White as its colors — Sailed from this haven to face unafraid Crises, or commonplace uses to learn ; Noble their service, and glad their return. Off sails the Green-and-White out of the harbor! Lightly site skims o ' er the untraveled sea! — May we not drift, but go earnestly forward, Happy and strong. Is our Pilot not He Who hushed the mad breakers to quiet again, Made them of Galilee fishers of men ? Class fttstorp L T R Senior Class history is the brief record of a few of the hopes, fears, and aspirations that have attended our school life. Four years ago it seemed to the eight Freshmen who are now Seniors that today, our Class Day, would never come. When a few of us rose very early one morning and sat on the boardwalk, making clover chams to use in decorating for the Seniors on their Class Day, we said to one another, Well, some day it will be our time, and shan ' t we be glad ! How we loved our little freshman class and how proud we were of it! Why, we even considered the idea of entertaining the Juniors! We were very indignant when some one spoke of the little Freshmen and laughed at our important air over our class meetings. Our Sophomore year soon passed and we again had the privilege of decorating for the Seniors, this time at the Assembly Hall in town. As we festooned the greenery around the columns and along the footlights, we again said to one another, Some day they will be decorating for us. We always knew that to be a Junior would be nice, but when the time came we found it even nicer than we had thought. A great many new girls came, and together we made a big class — the pride of our hearts. Then did we not have the pleasure of entertaining the Seniors at a most beautiful Apple Blossom Tea? And did we not breakfast in the orchard with them one May morning? When we came back last fall we had a feeling of inward trepidation, although outwardly we maintained an air of confidence and dignity. Could we get through on practice teaching? Could we live up to the high standards set for us? Anyway, we resolved to try, and to stand together in all problems that might confront us. No class ever had a better president than Lillian made for us in our Junior year — except the president that she has been to us in this our Senior year. At first our class meetings were quite a novelty, and we enjoyed the distinction of having Room 15 for our very own. Dr. Wayland would even defer his office hours to give us right of way. After we had had meetings for weeks and months, the novelty wore off; but still we faithfully attended them. However much we may have disagreed on other subjects, we always unanimously seconded the motion to adjourn. Since those fall days we have found that all things come to those who wait — even Senior privileges. Each of us has demonstrated that she can apply successfully at least a few of the methods that have been instilled into our minds. Some have even proved capable of teaching a country school. Above all we have learned that it is possible to write more essays and papers in the last quarter of the Senior year than in the other two quarters together. Of all the things that we have helped to accomplish, nothing means more to us than the inauguration of Student Government. This we leave as a sacred trust to those who come after. This June day we go out from school, leaving room for another Senior class. To them we extend the wish that success may crown their every effort, that they may attain their highest ideal, may spread them- selves in the new Students ' Building, and may win the basket ball cham- pionship. o H en Z X o ' — t w z w D - A COLORS FLOWER Gold and Black Pansy MOTTO Esse quam videri.

Heatwole o « o 2 D junior Spirit It isn ' t a que stion of numbers, It isn ' t a matter of size; The Juniors have both to perfection — But in neither their spirit lies. If each could do as she pleases, She would not in vanity dream ; For the Junior Class has a motto: To be, rather than to seem. ' ' To be to the Class ever helpful, To be to the School ever true — Herein is the Junior ambition, Their motto and class spirit too. Our spirit must never be lagging — There ' s rooting that must be done ; The team may fail if we falter — There ' s always a game to be won. That spirit must ever hold steady, For there ' s never a day so fair Hut noontide may halt in a shadow, And souls lack courage to dare. In faithfulness one to the other, The strong to the weak ever true, The Juniors will all stand together, In honor and lovaltv too. Our Captain says, Work with the spirit, Do well what you set out to do ; Meet bravely each task that ' s before you — Don ' t frown — with a smile push it through.

Here we are at the aeroplane landing at Harrison- burg. Let me see. 1915—1965. Why, Tom, it has been fijly years since I was here. I can ' t believe it. It seems only yesterday. See all those rows of buildings on the hill where the Normal used to stand. It must be an asylum — what. ' ' The Normal. ' ' The idea! Where is the board walk? Cement walks! Did you ever? — and fountains! I ' ve always loved fountains so. 1 he girls surely must be crazy about this. Oh! I feel so frustrated as the girls used to say. I feel as if I were sixteen. Look, they are coming out from classes now. I wish I were with them. What time is it, Tom? 5:40? I thought it was about 4:45. Poor girls! It is a shame they have to stay so late. Let ' s fly around this way. Look at those girls on the old jumping board. They go over at least twenty feet? Yes, there are the athletic grounds, I ' m sure. Those little cottages must be the ones Mr. Burruss wanted for the Household Arts Department. Well! Well! 1 he orchard is full of blossoms and bee hives. The new Italian stingless bees, no doubt. — Yes, those are the long white poultry houses! See the peacocks strutting about! I know that breed of chickens — the world-famous King Specials. Read the signs for me, Tom, I can ' t see them. ROLLER ' S ROOTLESS RADISHES! Marvelous, isn ' t it? Those patches are almost as pretty and even as ours were. And that is the same old cottage. Can I believe my eyes? If that isn ' t the yew tree, more bent over than ever with old age! Look, Tom; they see us. Did you ever see so many middy blouses? It looks like old times. Let ' s fly lower and see them closer. What is this we are landing by? — a barrel — full of tomato cans, as I live ! So middy blouses and tomatoes haven ' t gone out of style at the Normal yet. Well! Well! Not all things change, even in a Normal School! Atr Casstle I build my castles in the air, They end in smoke — why need I care? I build a castle in sunny bpain; I watch it grow; my dreams I gain. — Its splendor quivers to the fall; Ah! Now I have no castle at all. I roam o ' er the land where skies are blue, And fair lakes match the skies in hue. This land to me is most divine, All other lands it doth outshine; I see the Alps, those mountains far. — It falls, my castle, like a star. I hie to the land of the shamrock green, The land of the pixie, the fairy queen; My castle here is of beauty sheen, It matches the home of the wee folks ' queen.- But now like the mists that pass in the night My castle has vanished from my sight. ' Tis thus I travel from land to land ; ' Tis thus I build mv castles grand. ' Tis true they last but a fleeting minute, But many a wonder happens in it. I build mv castles in the air, They end in smoke — why need I care? -Madge Bryan.

Stribling A. STRIBLING Aim — Always to make A x tubent oberument OR several years the question of Student Government has been agitated among groups of students, but onlv in the last few months has this matter been taken up and settled bv the student body as a whole. The Honor Committee, being the nearest thing to Student Government then exist- ing in the school, began in the fall to investigate the mat- ter to see what could be done. In the meantime the members of that committee tried to create a sentiment among the students in favor of self-government. The Honor Committee found that thev could use as a basis for a constitution one which had been drawn up here several years ago by a group of students. After the desired changes had been made, this was handed to the proper Faculty Committee. This committee went over it carefully and returned it with a few suggestions as to changes. Next, in order to gain some idea of the number of students who were in favor of this new movement and to give all a clearer idea of its import, the proposed constitution was read in the several class groups and explained, and then tentatively voted upon by each of the four principal class organizations. A majority in each group favoring it, the constitution was then formally presented to the student body as a whole, and was adopted by a majority vote- The next step was to submit to the Faculty a copy of the constitution and a petition from the student body asking that we might be granted the rights of Student Government as based upon that constitution. A few suggestions as to changes were made by the faculty, but thev gladly grant- ed the right of self-government. Thev also recommended that the officers of the Honor Committee should be the first officers of the Student Govern- ment organization, and that the Honor Committee should form the first Executive Board. A few days later a meeting was held at chapel time, and President Burruss and Dr. J. W. Wayland talked on the responsibility and the advantages of Student Government. Mr. Burruss then presented the recommendation offered by the faculty, and this was accepted bv the students. The faculty then withdrew and Miss Agness Stribling, President of the Student Body, took the chair. After reading several clauses of the constitution and explaining them, she announced that Student Government was that day, February 25, 1915, inaugurated in the Harrisonburg Normal School.

JStgW As the sun dropped low o ' er the western hills, And the world seemed to pause on its way, The birdies all snuggled down in their nests, For they knew ' twas the close of the day. The sky in the west was the rosiest hue ; The bright colors came and went ; And then a soft gray settled down over all, Till the daylight was quite spent. Then the stars peeped out from their hiding place, And twinkled so pretty and bright That the eyes of thousands were turned that way, To witness the wonderful sight. Then the little stars did their very best, To make this dark world bright ; For they knew that the sun had gone to bed, So they shone, and the dark grew light. Then all night long in that clear, cool sky, When the world was hushed and still, While each little bird had its own little dream, They shone with a right good will. So they sailed along in that dark blue sky Like a ship, knowing just where to go; Till those that were low went high in the sky, And those that were high dropped low. At last when their course was entirely spent, And the sun was about to rise, Like good little children tired of play, They shut their star-bright eyes. -Lillie Massey. I i. Cfje Utttle J igftt people If you will watch out on a clear summer ' s night, When the big moon is shining so full and so round, And moonbeams are scattered about, gleaming brignt, I think I can tell you just what will be found. On little green mounds dotted over the hill, Each fairy will come with a light tripping tread From homes in the blossoms in wood, field, and rill, They come in great numbers, by the fairy queen led. Listen ever so closely ; you surely will hear The faint tinkle, tinkle, of tiny blue bells ; Now look and you ' ll see the wee fairies appear, Tripping to flower chimes down in the dells. The fairy queen, clad all in shimmering white, Jeweled in moonbeams with settings of gold Made from the pollen of violets bright, Waves her magical wand — all beauties unfold. The rest of the fairies wear gossamers fine Of hues just as many as are found in the flowers, Trimmed in bright dewdrops which sparkle and shine As the dancing goes on through the long summer hours. The flower musicians begin to play then The gayest and brightest and sweetest of tunes ; And all of the fairies dance till the new sun Bids them hide in the cups of the blossoms again. Go then again, when the morning draws near, To visit the same little green fairy mound; The jewels you ' ll find thai the fairies left there Are the glittering dewdrops, so clear and so round. — Mary Davis. gtijlettc gteoctatton OFFICERS President .

Paul was sitting just three seats be- hind Brownie, too — a fact which was most vexatious. She could feel his angry eyes bor- ing thru the back of her head like twin augers of blue steel. No, she had not turned around to look, but she felt them bore just the same. How could they be anything but angry after what she had said to Paul this morning at the Byrds ' ? Brownie again goes over the sudden quarrel in which her wrath had flared up until she had stamped her little foot on the ground and tired, almost in one breath, I hate you ! And I wouldn ' t marry you, Paul Denny, if you were the last man on earth! She had shot the choking postscript over her shoulder, Never speak to me again! Leave me forever! The young man had answered, ' Never ' is a long time, Brown; bet- ter make it the day before. Then she remembered how Paul had tried to make up, but she had continued industriously not to hear a word he said. Yes, she had regard- ed the scenery with fond interest all the time he was talking, until he had walked off without saying anything more. Brownie closed her eyes and gave herself up to further thought. Her brain seemed whirling, and it was tense with pictures. She could see again the big grand-stand at A. and M. College; and there on the field she saw a madly fighting figure, soiled and bloody, tearing his way thru a tangle of surging forms — the swelling roar ending in a victorious yell! Yes, that was the first time she had ever seen him — the idol of his fellows. And that evening, at the reception given by the Meredith girls, was the first time she had met him. Every man at the reception had a thump for his back, and the girls were wild about him; yet she had had his whole at- tention for half an hour, and how proud she had been! Brownie wondered if he was really angry — that big, kind, brotherly Paul — but then, what did it matter now that they had parted forever? Heavens! that horrid mirror at the front of the car! Brownie could see all the passengers reading or dozing — and there was Paul ' s shoulder, but his face was hidden. How big those shoulders looked! And they were shaking! It couldn ' t be so serious as that. — What? Shaking with laughter — a copy of Life in his hand! Well, that settled it. She might have re- lented after ten years — or even a week — but now! Yes, it was over for good and all. Brownie stared indifferently out of the window at the whirling land- scape. Her fingers drummed the pane just loud enough to let Paul hear how carefree she really was. Why didn ' t he have the decency to take another train? But no mat- ter; she was going home to mother and to eternal forgetfulness.. Forever ? — What a word! Twenty years of feminine Life shrank to a pretty small proportion beside forever. Brownie felt that she might miss Paul a trifle, his candy, his flowers, and so forth; and there he was behind her making a perfect fool of himself over those trashy old jokes. Maggerzines and papers! The train-boy ' s yell recalled her with a jump. Here y ' are! All the latest! Have you a copy of Scribner ' s? Git it fer you right away, Miss! The boy returning said, The Scribner ' s is done sold, Miss, but here ' s the latest copy of Life. I don ' t care for that, thank you. I got to leave it tho ' — that gent three seats back said I must. The boy moved on down the aisle calling loudly, Maggerzines! All the latest Maggerzines! Hra! said Brownie to herself. Just fancy the impertinence. For several minutes she stared out of the window. The magazine lay neglected, and presently it fell to the floor, opening wide at the picture of two little tots. The little bov was saying to his sweetheart, who was pouting, Don ' t be cross, dear; let ' s make up. The whole picture had been traced around with a blue pencil and a big N. B. was written over it. Brownie frowned, smiled, and then laughed outright. Evidently her lacerated feelings were disposed of; for in a few minutes Paul saw her little silver pencil making curious quadrangles around certain words in the advertising column, which were eminently satisfactory: SAUNDERS BOYD Roomjs, Flats, and Houses to Let | in | Park Place Engage Choice | Seat |s for Olive Kline with Johnson and | brown Ticket Agents Paul lost no time in transferring himself to her seat, and my! how the train did fly ! Why, he had only had time to beg just one more con- versation when the cars plunged into the big Union Depot at Norfolk. Brownie was returning unexpectedly, and no one was there to meet her; so theie was nothing tor haul to uo but to get a taxi and see her sale home. Taxis are so much nicer than old street cars anyway, especially when there is to be only one more conversation forever. The City Park looked inviting as they drove past; so Paul suggested that they have their chat out under the big willows. Brownie hesitated for a moment, but finally yielded to the appeal of the fresh air and the landscape. Beautiful, isn ' t it? she murmured presently, apropos of scenic effect- Lovely, agreed Paul, his mind and eyes monopolized by living pictures. There was no doubt about the fact that the brown-haired, blue-eyed girl beside him was a beauty. Everything seems so restful and peaceful, she added. Hm! Do you think peaceful quite the word? Paul didn ' t — nor restful, for that matter. Of course that ' s the word. What would you call it? Everything that I see is lovely and charming, but with the possibility of gusty storms always present. How stupid! The weather is perfect to-day, she told him impa- tiently. Oh, the weather! Yes — and this park is a very Garden of Eden, agreed Paul, looking at Eve lazily. Brownie shot an amused glance at him and then ventured, Paul, I do wish you would have an attack of common sense and stop sighing for the unattainable. I don ' t recognize any desirable thing as unattainable. When T see anything I want, I ask for it. Apparently so; and one and one make two. Yes, and two and one will make three askings, he added cheer- fully. Why not spare vourself the trouble of that? No trouble to show goods, ma ' am. But I am not purchasing to-day. she said with velvety gentleness, though I am sure what you have to offer is of the very best material ' •mall I show it to some other girl? I iust wish you would. Who, for instance? Oh, anv nice girl that suits vou. Mary Dudley? Not good enough for you. Sarah Dodson? She is too old. Blanche Daniel? A child in short dresses. That exhausts my list and brings me back to you. Brownie, will you marry me? Again? I didn ' t know that it had happened once. O crazy! I mean you are asking me again. That makes three times. Does it? Make it my luckv number. Do I hear you say ' Yes ' ? You hear me say ' No ' , and you will please say no more about the subject, said Brownie, sweeping a catlike glance at her mouse. You are c harming as a comrade, but as a — I mean in any other role — I don ' t like you so well. Paul turned his head and looked at her; and, in contradiction to his gay wooing, his eyes were stony with pain. I can ' t say I ' m feeling greatly complimented, Brown, not to speak of the ' leaden heart ' — we read of that heavily laden organ in books you know — but I suppose you have the right to say no. I have often laughed at such metaphors regarding the state of the heart, but I never will again! It ' s a sinker all right. I see I was too confident of victory now. Because I can not do without you, I just thought you would come over after awhile. It i? my fate to love you, and mv duty as I see it to tag on behind in case I ' m wanted. I never cared much for girls, but you held me the minute I saw you at the reception you Meredith girls gave us after we won the game; and I ' ve been tagging on ever since. — Heavens ! Why didn ' t I have the brains to stop boring you? O Brownie, I wonder if you have the most remote idea of what this means to me ? The girl ' s lashes were wet as she returned his gaze and her sweet, set mouth auivered as she explained, It is dreadfully hard to tell vou, Paul, but I — I can ' t go on deceiving you. Fortunately or unfortunately, I have a mind as well as a heart. And it is my mind that hesitates to follow where my heart might lead me. The truth is, I have a temper, as you evidently noticed this morning, and it is the quality of my temper mainly that prompted me to say no. Paul, she continued, when I get married, I intend to stav married, and happily married, for divorce is a clumsy, last resort for shortsighted people; and my temper together with yours — for you have one too — would not make the happiest home in the world, I ' m afraid. I have hurt you so much more than I intended — I didn ' t think you could ever look like that. Let ' s still be friends though — here ' s my hand on it. A sob choked her, and she applied her pretext for a handkerchief to suspicious drops that started. Come, come, my dear little Brown, said Paul kindly, sitting very erect with squared shoulders. I confess I was hard hit, Brown, and 1 suppose I growled and felt injured too much this morning. But it ' s just the nature of the beast; so don ' t you worry about it now- And as far as temper goes, I think, it a poor sort of love that can ' t control temper, don ' t you? If that is the only reason, it is an absurd one to me. The temper you have would only spice life; I ' m afraid you have a rather exaggerated opinion of it, little girl. The real question is, do you love me r If silence had been golden, the atmosphere would at that moment have been surcharged with wealth. Brownie was fighting against surrender; but when he asked the question again, she replied, I don ' t know. She turned her eyes from him, but he took her face in one of his hands, compelling her gaze, and asked, You do love me, don ' t you? Brownie found the ghost of a smile and shyly said, I guess I ' m like Baby Ned when Dad asked him if he loved him. What did he say? Paul asked eagerly. Well, after trying his best to get out of it, he finally said, l I do; but I ain ' t going to tell you.

I stood at the window and watched them float Out of the leaden sky; I listened as if to hear them call As they fluttered silently by. Little white tokens of something pure, Little white tokens of love. Sent as a message to me they come Down from the angels above. Little white snowflake, how pure you are! How lovely and soft and white ! Tiny you may be, but shaped like a star, That melts away from my sight. -Catherine Brown.

To do this, take it to the bath room and turn the needle bath on it. This will usually make it just damp enough. Re- turning, give one stroke under the first bed, one under the other, and a couple of sweeps in the middle of the room, and it is clean. Sweep the dirt to the door. Here you must be very careful to look up and down the hall to see if Mrs. Brooke is coming. If she is not coming, with one siveep send the dirt into the hall and close the door quickly. If there should be any dirt that was missed, sweep it under the table and set the waste basket on it. But always be careful to stop anybody who goes to move the waste basket, or the whole process may have to be repeated.

How is the mumps? they questioned; We woke in great surprise. It is much better, thank you. And we rubbed our sleepy eyes. Are you dead sure we ' ve got it? We queried in one breath; And we waited for their answer With a silence still as death.

MOST INTELLECTUAL MOSTCHEERFUL MOST STRIKING MOST DEPENDABLE MOST ORIGINAL pparttton£ It was near the close of the first year that Ellen had spent in a boarding school. She walked slowly out of the Science Hall and instead of going to the dormitory strolled into the orchard and dropped limply under and apple tree. She had Veen in school since the twenty-first of Sep- tember. Now the term was near its close, and Ellen was not prepared for the end. She was tired of school work, but one awful fact stared her in the face- Exams would begin to-morrow ! It seemed so hard to make even C, and she had no hopes of a B. She slowly opened her Latin book and attempted to read, but unfor- tunately came to a line untranslatable. With a sigh the girl tossed the book on the ground exclaiming, I can ' t read Latin! and soon was fast asleep. When Ellen reached Dreamland she saw, standing right in front of her, a little man scarcely a foot high. He was shaking a tiny forefinger at her and using so many irregular verbs, ablative absolutes, periphrastics, and indirect discourses in his speech that she could scarcely comprehend him. However, she did understand when he said, The fates having been unwilling, and all Gaul having been divided into three parts, thou canst not remain in the Latin Class unless thy impedimenta shall have been re- moved in the space of twenty-four hours. Then warning Ellen to Beware the Ides of March, which she inter- preted to mean the third of June, he disappeared. The Junior sighed in her sleep, but as she did so an- other little figure appeared. It seemed to be a lady aiming right at Ellen with a wee rubber-tipped pointer. Her tiny neck made obtuse and acute angles with her shoulders, for her head was cocked on one side. The aforesaid head was a perfect circle, with a curved line for the mouth, di- minutive isosceles triangles for eyes, and for a nose the three little dots meaning therefore. The rim of her queer little hat was a tangent and the crown an equiangular tri- angle. She was dressed in a gown made of tiny squares, triangles, circles, and right angles. Ellen flinched in her c leep, for this stern little apparition also spoke threatening- ly. Beware of this exam! Prepare! Prepare! This quaint small person had scarcely disappeared when up jumped a little figure who wore a tiny white apron and cap. In one hand she held a large cooking spoon; in the other, a gigantic notebook. In a shrill voice, emphasizing each word with her spoon, she demanded, If it takes fifteen minutes for one biscuit to cook, how long will it take for two? Thirty minutes, screamed Ellen with algebraic accuracy. The weird woman, enraged by such an answer, hurled her notebook at the sleeping girl, who in her efforts to dodge it awoke. In her ears still sounded the doom pronounced by the vanishing spectre cook, What thou stewest, thou shalt eat. — Esther Hubbard. W )t ©rrijarb Sweet blossoming apple trees about Embower our halls of stone, reach out White arms and rosy finger-tips. And kiss their strength with fragrant lips. Song birds in spring come there to dwell, And hang their nests o ' er the shady dell, Where the pretty wee violet, timid and shy. Rivals in color the blue of the sky. We schoolgirls, too, love the shady nooks. Where our minds can wander away from our books, Back to the old apple orchards at home Where in earlier da s we loved to roam. And search for the robin ' s, the oriole ' s nest, The meadow lark ' s, peewee ' s, and all the rest; And climb the trees to their topmost bound, To see if the earth would then look round. In winter too, when all is still, And a silver sheen lies over the hill, And all of nature seems fast asleep. Those trees, like ghosts, their vigils keep. -Anna Brunk. €too jHtmiteg to et to Ireatoast Better hurry up. It is only five minutes before the doors ' are shut, and you will miss your breakfast.

Having tried in vain to sell my treatises on The Underestimated Value of Foreign Languages at the Harrisonburg State Normal for Women, The Increasing Necessity for the Culture of Cattle in the United States, etc., etc., I have recently been concocting a scheme which I hope will meet with your ready approval and co-operation. I am hereby applying for the position of Controller-General of the Noises of Harrisonburg State Normal. For credentials concerning my vociferous activity I refer you to Miss Natalie Lancaster, who is well ac- quainted with it. The noises of H. N. S. may be divided into two classes, vocal and instrumental. The state of the latter is that of so great chaos as to de- mand immediate attention. Indeed a dustpan is allowed to be beaten so persistently as to awake a whole hall hours before breakfast time. The noise made by chairs dragged a cross the floor above one ' s head is intoler- able. A fearfully jarring sound is that of a radiator out of tune. The comb, which really has musical qualities, is overworked. The watchman ' s thump at midnight startles us in our beds as much as the breaking in of a thief. For the last-named noise I should suggest that the board walk be padded with the feathers of the numberless fowls which we consume daily. All these other instruments will be regulated and modulated by my skill, so that they will serve only to lull one back into dreamland. The vocal cries are incomprehensible in their compass. In fact they are so unbelievably discordant that visitors and even passers-by are justly astounded. One cry, Hurry up, quick! which should be uttered in deep mournful notes in accordance with the results produced — for it is indeed a solemn thing to miss one ' s breakfast — is cried in notes two octaves above middle C. Likewise should that cry, heart-piercing to studious as well as to otherwise-inclined maids, be rendered in not so sharp a tone, Lights out, girls! These and other cries which give the chin an attraction for the corners of the hearer ' s mouth, such as: No mail for this table, No dessert to-day, and its echo, No pie since Christmas! and Take this, please, should be so softened and harmonized that the very music in them would soothe the savage breast, for what passions cannot music raise or quell? A very common noise heard three times a day is that very harsh mingling of voices in the dining room. (The sound emitted by the cutlery alone is wonderfully melodious- This was tested April 1, 1915.) This reminds one of the old adage, Much cry but little wool. I should pre- scribe a few more bass notes and a little more wool. A most ostensible defect in these noises is that they have neither time nor measure. Shrieks are so common that a fire, a holiday, and a mouse are not distinguishable. I admit that all three of them should be called in quick time, but there should certainly be greater difference. Nor must I omit under this head those excessive alarms of privileged Seniors return- ing from some midnight revelry. They should be put into a house to themselves. Several slow cries that promise future greatness and that may be easily ouickened and made more lively are Ye-es, that is so, but why? and I believe it is getting about time for another little written quiz. Then there are those cries that are very tunable, but which we do not hear but three times a year, such as: Do we get our reports to-day? Have you got any books to sell? and Did you get all A ' s? Owing to the pretty tones these airs might have different words set to them. Another fault I have to find is that of crying so as not to be understood. Whether or no they have learned this from some of our affected singers, I will not take upon me to say ; but such absurd mistakes have been made as girls ' going to the north door of the Science Hall for mail upon being told that ice-cream was for sale there. Feeling that there is a real need for controlling and harmonizing these incongruous sounds, I beg that vou consider me in choosing a capable overseer, or overhearer. Your most obedient servant, Harmony Doolittle. [A humble admirer of Joseph Addison.]  t- is omeijoto, is ometofjere, g omt Bap — Mr. Johnston will use simple words. Lillie Massey will sing a solo.

New girl, trembling: Oh, was that an earthquake? Senior: Not exactly; Geneva Moore fell down the steps. ■ - Mr. Heatwole: I wonder where my brain is. Student: I think you left it in Mr. Smithey ' s room. Old girl: Are you a Methodist? New girl: No, I am a Freshman. Every one in the library was busy. Much disturbed, she leaned o er her neighbor ' s shoulder and said, Pardon me, but can you tell me in what year Christ was born? Mr. Burruss (in chapel) : You may invite all your friends to Mr. Petrone ' s Recital. There will be no admission. Senior: Have you ever taken chloroform? New girl: No, who teaches it? Ellen (looking eagerly out of the window) : Here comes Campbell ' s Bakery up the street. Ouestion on a test: Define climate. Answer: Climate is what man and beast alike have to endure. Agnes (leaving the gymnasium after seeing Hiawatha played) : Oh, I didn ' t want Minnehaha to die! Lilla : Why, you know that is the way Shakefpeare intended it to be. Bees are instincts. All instincts have six legs and four wings They tell me that Garland Farrar sings with great expression. Greatest expression you ever saw. Her own friends can ' t recognize her face when she is singing. Language — Used only by the teachers. Lives of great cooks all remind us, We can make our fudge sublime, And departing leave behind us Nothing upon which to dine. Old girl: We had a lovely feast once last year. We had toasts and everything nice New girl: How in the world did you make toast? My radiator isn ' t hot enough. Senior (after seeing the proofs of her picture) : Mr. Dean, can ' t you do something to this picture? The hair doesn ' t look right in the back, but I think a hairpin would fix it. There was to be an illustrated lecture on John Bunyan ' s Pilgrim ' s Progress one Sunday evening. Marian remarked, I am crazy to go to the Baptist church tonight to see John Bunny. I wonder if he is as funny in steroptain pictures as he was in the movies last night. President of the Junior Class: Mr. Heatwole, our honorary member, is going to talk to us tonight. I am sure it is a great pleasure for him to come. Sophomore to Dr. Wayland: Who wrote the Monroe Doctrine? Lilla came in chapel with her hair arranged high on her head. Said her friend, I like your hair when you wear it on your head. Mr. Heatwole (discussing the times of Pestalozzi) : Now we must not lose sight of historical facts in connection with our study of Pestalozzi. Just what time is it? Sleepy student (looking at her watch) : Half-past three. Dr. Wavland, crossing the hill from school, looked at his watch to see hov much after five o ' clock it was. His mind had traveled faster than time, for it was only four o ' clock. Meekly he returned to meet the waiting class. Chairman of Program Committee : Oh, let Mary read this Thomas Nelson Page story! She gets the negro intellect so well. Miss Bell: In what animal are we most interested? Girls: Man! Syndics of Cloth Hull she ought to have written as the title of Rembrandt ' s picture; but she wrote l he Men of Cornstalk. Student opening a letter and finding a check in it: I am going to write my name on the back of this check so that it will be returned to me if it is lost and found. Invitation shouted down the hall: Everybody that is hungry come to room sixty-six. Explanation later to expectant crowd: Oh, I just wanted company. I am hungry too. Sewing pupil (in a lesson plan) : How would you determine the length of a dress for a lady? Answer: By the age of the person. If you find anything sentimental in the Schoolma ' am, just remem- ber that a new girl dropped a letter in the Annual box, thinking it was the mail box. Piedmont girl: What is a pheasant? Tidewater girl: Why, a farmer, of course. From the bulletin-board: Found: A black fountain peri coming up the board walk. Junior: Columbus sailed to America in the Mayflower. Question on a test: What is a salad? Answer: A salad is a harmonious mixture of meats, vegetables, fish, fruit, and nuts, seasoned with a continent and flavored with a salad dressing. Mr- Smithey: You can ' t take Sewing because it conflicts with Natural Science. Special: I don ' t see why, because the Natural Science class meets in Room B, and the sewing class meets in Room 17. Freshman (glancing ever the program for the Violin Recital and seeing the fifth number, Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso) : This pro- gram is all mixed up. They have the introduction for the last number. ome JSormal Conunbrumsf Why will H. N. S. make a formidable opponent in case of war? Because of her famous generals, — Alexander, Grant, Sherman, Lee, and Jackson. Why should H. N. S- rank high in literature? Because of her noted writers, — Lamb, Johnson, Cooper, Scott and Burns. Why should H. N. S. advocate votes for women? Because of her great statesmen, — Adams, Monroe, Davis, and Wil- son. Why is it that Elizabeth Greaves? Because Miss Dyer has crossed the Jordan. Which two Seniors does M ' ss King need most in her poultry class? Misses Hatcher and Cooper. If Elizabeth Tardy were more often Early, would her classmates be Happy -er? No, for they have too much Witt to stop writing their Darhnp; English Long enough to see so Strange a thing. If Margaret Purcell is always late, is Lucile Early? If Mrs. Vernon Castle can dance, can Nellie Pace? If Stella Burns, will Lois Cooke? If Elizabeth Greaves, will Madge sympathize? If we should cry, would Elizabeth Pettus? When Hawthorne blooms, does Mullin wither? If Wheatley likes Happy, does she care for Geneva Moore? If Mary should fall into a Brooke, would Ruth Fisher out? No, but Evelyn Woodland her. — - X - JO JO ; •, Jn I i V) -t CJ c k 3 D, cd CD -3 cd a C C J ja o 0) B O cu E o cd en tJ -a c c cd cd 3 rtl Cd CU l_ G en en O 1 c O ed ._ T3 g « O . -a cu • — o H Ih pq u 3 2 en ht -3 n C bt c c Ml u B i_ CO cu en c ? c £ 3 — c O - cd o u O en 3 o U eu C E o U think of them M i- .. 1 C 3 Ih ed U f U cu a; c c ed G ' Sc Cd E Ih c u ed cd CD u ed cu -o CU — en +■ CU •f ed CO D- en CU — 3 13 ' C u QJ p, gj Ih bJC u ed 1-1 e - .— cd « tn Cw CO cu -3 en w ed c C CO CU E cu ' c cd 1 cs 3 u (J u cd 0) C cu 5: cu C- en cu M cd c o Ih P2 _C c 3 u ed CO bc « i: £! 3 en eu u . 3 ►3 DO eg CO Ch en ed ' cu en ed (U cd eu O u o E J pq c _r — u o X O o E o z 1—1 0) ¥ fc O u en ; — ; - 53 s h-1 ' u CO s , CO $ u hC E en VC _c en ra en CU [ o CO ■ ed en J o en 1 O u p CJ -, 3 en 3 = .= ed T3 Cd Ih ' o o W u CO CO 2 cd ■o c n V c c V 1u n E o X c 3 hi c QJ S CO e3 CQ c c Bfl U -a ' ►J V) an cfi en m en is 1 S S en is 1j 1 ft 3 tn 2 = J .2 ■3 c k a c en o J: C i i 2 3r of Orthography instor of Spelling S  J g ' a a.

D. Professor of English Literature in Richmond College, Professor of English Lit- erature in the University of Virginia Summer School, Author of History of English Literature A fuller treatment of Southern writers is to be found in Metcalf ' s American Literature than in any similar text. In the last decade or two the recognition of the literary contribution of the South has steadily grown, until the space allotted to the subject has assumed respectable proportions. In recent histories it covers many pages. Even yet, however, we have only imperfectly come to understand the far-reaching consequence in South- ern literary developement since 1870; while the sterling worth of a few older authors is just now becoming more apparent as we are getting far enough away from the adverse conditions under which they wrote to see things in the right perspective. 415 pages, illustrated.

An annual or a catalogue must be handled well — cheap, care- less printing will not do. This work requires the best in machinery and equipment, and ex- perienced men in handling and oversight. For a number of years we have specialized on college printing, and it is gratifying in the ex- treme to have our customers return to us year after year; and we believe this attests the satis- faction of our service.
