A little living with a little play, A little laughter in a dreary day, A hasly tear: and then a wanderer ' s way Through paths unknown Where all alone We act our part, Nor know from start To finish where we go Or why, save that there blow From some far land, Across a dim and distant strand, The echoes of a mighty band That have been men. Armed with the Strength of what has been, Clad in the hope of things unseen, We casl our lot with the moving play As it folds our lives into yesterday. Anne R.

We, the students, present annually our college play, one year of life on this campus. The actors are as varied as the places from which they come. They have, how- ever, one thing in common, the wish for success. It is a swift play. Mistakes must be corrected even as they are made; there is no time to rehearse our parts. The directions must be given as the play moves on, and their effectiveness can be judged only by the smoothness of the subsequent action. In this book we have tried to give per- manence to some suggestive scenes from our passing drama of 1930-1931. - - Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy Statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end. Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart. Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do 1 delight. Psalms I 19: 33, 34, 35. And It Was Called Day Morning sits quietly, somberly. Rut wide-awake. Beside a dark pool in the woods. Watching wet dragon flies Dry themselves. Water lilies W ake and smile up at her. A soft, playful breeze Ruffles her hair and dress As she smiles back at the lilies. Noon lolls lazily, sleepily At the foot of a hay-cock. And yawns as he shoves The heel of his boot Into the roots of the hay-stubble. The clouds overhead Are like huge pirate-ships. Rut he is too droivsy to go adventuring. Resides, the sun is too bright — It hurts his eyes to look up. Dusk trudges slowly, wearily Up the well-worn path — The implements of his days work Across his shoulder. The gray dust From the fields and hay sifts off him. He reaches home and stands on his threshold, Gazing back across his fields. Seeing all, yet only half. Throwing down his tools, he settles Himself with his pipe, and draws Across his weary shoulders A dark, worn, old coat — For it has grown cool. — Sarah Dutrow Jackson Torch South Lawn Harrison Haii Maury Hall HlLLCRES I Practice House The South Arch At the Ninth Tee Cleveland Co - j i age The Little Gate Some day perhaps I shan ' t even care Whether that stately row of poplars Shall be clothed gracefully in green ( )r whether a soft breeze Shall make them sway in one direction. Rut now, when they Are brazenly immodest In their nakedness And let the light from yonder moon Shine through them, Something in the silhouetted hlc Calls forth a protest against my Loneliness. 1 would that spring would come. — Sarah Dutrow vt.tS B ■fR WT P A%. ■ ' ■ .,-J3 BSfc. - - IK ■ That our daughters may be as cornerstones, polished after the similitude of a palace.

Senior Class Hislory The Four-Year Pageant Here Enacted by the Class of 1931 THE PLAY ' S THE THING WAS after the theater. A group of men and women in eve- ning dress were talking together. From their midst came frag- ments of lively conversation — . . . there, in the second act. when she made that dramatic hit. . . . -- Hut I disagree; the climax came in the third act. — Have you forgotten the garden scene ? - - Well, how about his first entrance? standing a little away and holding himself so as to appear apart, spoke suddenly — without abruptness, hut with a tone and meaning that was finality — ' Why bother to disagree? The play on the whole was superb. The scenery for our play has been the majestic, ever-changing panorama of earth, mountain, and sky, shifted — not with each act but with the seasons — im- perceptibly from one beauty to another. In a sense the whole world has been our theater, and the whole world our audience. A better audience no other troupe has ever had — an audience that sacrificed for us, wept and laughed for us, encouraged us, and expected the high- est from us. There has been no single author of this play, yet the greatest Author has guarded and guided us. The influence and aid of directors and stage managers has been immeasurable. We have had the music of human voices, of birds, of instruments, of all living things; we have had the greatest stage lights and the least: sun, moon, stars, and — green electric bulbs. Above all, it was truly our own play — ours to mold, to make into a comedy or a tragedy. We have indeed touched it with both elements; yet who dares to classify it, remembering both the jollity and the pathos? Our first act was one of adjustment — halting, stumbling, sometimes losing our lines, sometimes failing from stage fright, but finally achieving adjustment. Stunt night, new girl- ddinj drl receptions, basketball, holidays, Spanish dancers. Sketch Book, baby caps, commencement, and our first seniority service. — What glorious scenes these were! Sophomores — wise fools! Just a little bit surer of ourselves, more class spirit, deeper friendship, keener appreciation of our own part in the tremendous pageant of living. Cock-sure enough to toss our heads and say, What Does It Matter? we yet could thrill with the heritage of traditions and ideals left by those who had passed off this stage in June — left for us to carry high. Oh, the jolly, rollicking Junior days! We had a sister class; we turned mental somersaults; we tried to acquire poise; we had responsibilities given to us, and we worked to live up to the trust : we had new privileges, new ideals, new visions — and we came up on top, wiser, somewhat bruised, but Smilin ' Through ! Because the fourth act has been the last act, and because every day has brought more clearly to us that realization and its unmistakable meaning, we have fought any semblance of grief or fear. We have made fun of ourselves and of everyone else. We have lived each day to its fullest, reveling and lingering in the enjoyment of every opportunity. We have mocked melodrama in such a way as to terrify an audience In the Dead of Night ; we have welcomed back alumnae; we have seen a new build- ing grow and trees spring up ; we have danced under black and white ; we have worn caps and gowns ; we have filled out application blanks ; we have graduated. Are we very different from those girls who came in September four years ago — seeking? Have we found our treasure? Will we take it to others? How will we complete our play? For every r.ctor, there is some dearest memory — an exciting game, the smile of a friend, an adventure in reading, a walk under stars or in the rain, a dance, a song, a laugh, a sense of peace, an understanding — but for all the play has been superb ! Henta A jingle of spurs, A crimson flash, A laughing jest in the quiet air, A glitter of steel in the sun ' s bright rav, And high adventure beyond compare. Gaily, with heads erect, they came — With but themselves And their faith in God — Through rushing streams Where shadows fell ; Up over rocks that were bare and hard They faltered not, but onward pressed Across blue hills to a blue sky ' s hem. They passed : the road is ours. God grant That we be not unfit to follow them. Prophecy of the Class of ' 3 1 T WAS 1951, and airplanes had become as prevalent and cheap as second-hand Fords. After teaching constantly for twenty years, I had saved enough money to make the first payment on .1 little machine called the Flighty Four and set out to spend my vacation seeing the world from the air. 1 took along a powerful telescope in order to be able to fly high and -.till not miss any- thing. The thing that interested me especially was the way in which the mem- bers of the Class of 31 at H. T. C. had scattered over the globe, and the remark- able variety of their occupations. After I left Kalamazoo, where for long years I had been instructing the rising generation in the wax ' s of the wicked world, the first thing to come to m attention was a catalog lying on the seat beside me. On the cover was: Helen Marbut School of Physical Education — faculty Includes Marion Cicerale, Well- ford Smith, and Evelyn Wilson. So our Big Sister, Miss Marbut. is nationally known: and her faculty, judging from the samples, is excellent. There was a radio in my plane that 1 must try as we went along. I turned it on: Mr. John Mcllwraith has just won the golf championship of the United States, a speaker was saying. The Big Brother of the class of ' 31 has indeed amassed, through the years, countless cups as golf trophies. Another station conies on: The great Kathleen Pickett dances before a gathering of European Royalty and brings down the house. What! The same Kathleen, the mascot of our class? Without a doubt, the same! Now to observe the land below. There is a huge sign reading: This week an exhibition of paintings by the famous artist, Edith Andes. Includes poses of her models, Elizabeth Kagey and Henrietta Blanton. By a winding river is a dairy farm, where, seated, surrounded by milk cans and supremely happy, is Jingle. The milkmaids. Fan ami Rosa Pell, are always busy bringing up more supplies of lacteal fluid. A race-track adjoins this, and crowds are waiting to see the race. The horses come out, and the sight of the jockeys gives me rather a jolt. There, mounted upon the noble steeds, are Gwyn Somers, Alice Elam, Mary Holler, and Sadie Longe. Farther along is a factory, on the top of which is this advertisement : Popless Chewing Gum — Try it — Your friends will never know you chew! In- vented and manufactured by Sue Ayres and demonstrated by Ruth Beeson, Hattie Gibson, and Inez Killinger. To the south are spreading green fields, in which grows the ( Idorless )nion, a boon to man, perfected by I. aura Cameron and Rebecca Beverage, renowned scientists. A track meet is in progress at a nearby city. Sara Ellen Bowers and Eliza- beth Plank have tied for championship. They attrib ute their success to the good influence of their thrice-daily sprints to the dining room at II. T. C. In the central square of the city an immense crowd is gathered around Lillian Walker, who speaks from a soap box in favor of Ken Bird as governor and Nathalie Hardy and Ella Stover for Congress. Now we are in Virginia. There is V. M. I., but much changed. Alas, it has gone co-ed, and a bronze statue of Virginia Thomas, the first cadetette, is prominent. Some of the other members of that first class were Jeanette Gore, Kathrvn Firebaugh, and Grace Blalock. Down on the coast of Florida in the warm sun some figures are lying. Though they look it. the} ' are not dead. On closer inspection the features of Mary Watt, Louise Coleman, and Marie Burnette appear. They spend their time basking in the sun and sleeping in a Rip Van Winkle-ish way. Now another plane flies near. It is piloted by Lillie Frances Blankenbaker, and Helen McNeely is ensconced in the passenger ' s seat. They fly toward a large gray cloud, and Helen, carrying a bucket and brush, climbs out on the wing. Great blobs of gold streak the air as she paints the cloud with sunshine. Over in Kansas a large threshing rig is in action. The boss, Mae Brown, must have something against the grain, from the way she insists that her assistants, Martha Moore and Florence Stephenson, shall have it properly threshed. In Wyoming there is a ranch filled with horses of the bucking bronco variety. From the ground, where one has just pitched her, Lena Bones is being assisted to arise by Sara Frances Ralston, who has just finished breaking the wildest bronco by merely sitting on it. Two small pack burros are trudging across the sand, followed by Dorothy Borum an d Rowena Crush — prospecting the hills for the elusive gold. Down near the Mexican border, where they live in huge Spanish-style houses, Lucile Bywaters and Emile Groseclose are being serenaded by two gay caballeros with tinkling guitars. A band of wandering musicians that travel all through the South pass below. Sadie Finkelstein, carrying a grand piano, is in the lead, and behind her come Kathleen Temple, who plays on a comb, Mary Ellen Sanford, with a xylophone, and Gaye Phillippi, carrying her bagpipe. This orchestra is enthusiastically re- ceived by audiences all over the country. Now we go over Hollywood, and it is gratifying to see who of the class of ' 31 are in the movies. Vivien Turner, Verice Stephenson, Elise Ouisenberry, and Elspeth Peyton have all made great names for themselves and live in great castle- like houses in Berkeley Hills. In the Yucatan section of Mexico, Mary Ann Nichols and Mayre Lowman, renowned archeologists. are digging up the remains of long-dead tribes and bring- ing to light all manner of unusual things. Out in the Pacific floats an immense glittering yacht. The captain, Maria Minor, is discussing with the owner, Virginia Case, the course to be followed. A sailor, Mary Lou McFaddin, is climbing up to the crow ' s nest to look over the ocean. Upon arriving at the Hawaiian Islands, I was rather surprised to find that Jane Campbell, who had gone there to teach, had gone native and was queen of the islands, wearing a grass skirt and looking very much changed. The ladies in her court were Sue Glover, Elizabeth Downey, Audrey Cassell, and Rebecca Emory. It was a wise choice — the costumes were so becoming. In the Philippines, Evelyn Click is Governor and Xettie Humphries com- mander of the army. Politics are duck soup for them. There was a lovely little Chinese house near Shanghai, where Frances Snyder, Daisy Nash, and Blanche Schuler sat smoking opium and dreaming of them good old days at H. T. C. In the- interior of the country is a mission school in which Grace Kerr. Nancy Carter Lambert, and Dorothy Rodes are enlightening the heathen. They love the work. Virginia Stark married the Sultan of Turkey and is the power behind the throne. Her poor hen-pecked husband is frightened at his own voice. Tulia Becton and Irma Orange are trying frantically to raise the status of the Turkish women. Alas, their efforts are in vain! Elizabeth Jones and Ruth Maloy are the most enthusiastic Soviets in Russia. They always did like red. Elizabeth Oakes and Airs. Nora Moyers rashly defied their power and are to be shot at sunrise. It was hard to pass over Italy because Harriet Pearson, who lived there, was singing in the garden by her villa. We flew around several times listening to her. It was necessary to circle Mt. Blanc twice in order to enjov fully the spec- tacle of Eleanor Wall and Lois Mitchell bravely trying to climb to the top. Their long-suffering guide, Florene Collins, was putting up a good fight to get them there. On the beach at Deauville sat Eleanor Wrenn twittering French glibly to a group of friends. Frances McGhee with her husband, the Count of Monte Cristo. sat at a nearby table; while gracefully riding a surfboard over the waves was no other than Elizabeth Carroll. Lola Davis and Virginia Harlin have rented the Rock of Gibraltar and are there seeking solitude from the hordes of people who hunt them out — Lola for her beauty, and Virginia for her sweet voice. As we went over Buckingham Palace, we were greeted by the sight of Vir- ginia Gilliam and Delphine Hurst coming from being presented at Court. It was hard to recognize them, all dressed up like plush horses. Virginia is a poet uni- versally known, and Delphine is representing the United States in a national beauty contest. After crossing the Atlantic we welcomed the sight of the sky-line of New York. Brightly lighted words flashed out before us as we arrived. Anne Trott — here this week only, seats ten dollars and up. Anne has put Ruth Draper in the shade long ago. Near by another form of entertainment is offered. Miller ' s Theatre — Shirley writes all her own words and music, and Nellie Cowan is her leading lady. Frances Matthews, Man ' Lowman, and Maxine Karnes are impres- sionistic dancers also giving performances in this theatre. Now an artistic and very imposing sign attracts my attention: Donalene Harvev, Social Adviser — Anything from Birthday Parties to Funeral s. Donalene has put her versatility to good use. A house of gigantic size on the edge of town is the residence of Lois Winston, leader of New York ' s Four Hundred, all of whom, at this very moment she is entertaining at a garden party. Near Newport are the huge mansions of Mrs. McRockerbilt, formerly Ethel Willard, and one of her neighbors, Gertrude Rust, a landscape painter of unusual ability. Each dav Gertrude turns from her door droves of aspiring suitors. Having seen the success and happiness of every member of the Class of ' 31 at H. T. C. I returned to my school, the only one who had really taught school for twenty years. —Louise Wine xf jfe ih STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE.

The library of James Madison Senior Plays of Former Years Since the first years of the college it has always been customary for the graduating class to present a play during commencement week.

What significance could that cage-like affair have? When the sixth floor of a department store is one ' s des- tination after a tiresome afternoon of shopping, an elevator is a gift of the gods. When Dr. Pullem is waiting above to extract a tooth, and one is a-quiver with dread and excitement, its final jerk is almost a death-blow from the Satanic hand. At least, no further significance had impressed me until my first experience on a self-operating lift. Heretofore, there had been the usual boy with his caution, Watch your step, please. Hence, a ride on an elevator in which the passenger and operator were one had not been included in my experience until my junior year in college. It all came about the evening of the annual banquet in honor of the diningr room girls. I was among other students assigned to serve. My first task was to go down to the senior dining room and bring twenty-seven dinner plates up to the kitchen. Being thus instructed, I stood looking blankly about for a stairway lead- ing down to my destination. A comrade came up and reminded me that a perfectly good elevator was at my disposal if I chose to find it and step in. I lost no time in finding it and stepping in. I awaited the arrival of one who would carry me down. I waited, and waited, but no such person appeared. Was there such a one ? Must I walk? Just then my eyes took in a row of little black buttons. Ah, so my opportunity had come ! Well, I would certainly lose no time in starting. I closed myself in and again sought the buttons. Yes, there they were, four of them — just four more than I knew how to manipulate. I must choose. And there my trouble began. Hoping Number One would be the correct button, I pressed firmly down upon it. No sooner had I touched it than I felt myself flying downward at full speed — past the dining room and headed straight for the laundry — and there was noth- ing I could do. A push upon another such button would probably send me through the roof ! They were all meaningless to me. Just as suddenly as I had started, I stopped ! The sudden halt brought me to my senses, and I was only too glad to step from my cage of despair. To think that twenty-seven dinner plates had caused all that agony ! Well, I must find them, anyway. With loaded arms, I again mounted the machine — but too soon realized my previous predicament, and was glad enough to back off. Seeing a nearby door, 1 headed that way. Yes, there were the steps leading to the kitchen. I planted my foot firmly on the first step and began my upward climb. Now, at least, my fate was not dependent upon those four little black buttons which might have led to my de- struction — and even to the destruction of twenty-seven perfectly good dinner plates. — Katye Wray Brown Sophomore Class Dr. H.

On with the dance! let joy be unconfincd ; No sleep till morn, when youth and pleasure meet. Sophomore Class Hislory X THE record of every nation, events that apparently mean nothing, items of little or no importance, results that are insig- nificant as viewed by outsiders, stand out prominently — veritable landmarks of history to that people. So it is with every class ; and to every graduating class especially comes the cognizance of deeply imbedded, heretofore unrecognized truths — realizations of just how much certain incidents in our school life here meant to us. The recognition that, for some of us at least, college life is at an end is overwhelming, and a flood of memories surge over us. First — September 23, 1929 — what a wealth of food for meditation — and in what throngs does the date conjure up in our minds the happenings of that day — the era of our college life begun ! The teas, receptions, dances, and parties which filled our social calendar recall many hours plesantly spent which otherwise would have been indeed dull and drear. Many moons will come and go ere we lose the memory of some of them. The perusal of the gems of wisdom found between the pseudo-innocent purple-and-gold covers of the handbook seemed to us, in our ignorance, rigorous torture. Even that phase of our freshman life is cloaked now with an atmosphere of pleasure which kind memory always leaves. Excitement ran high at the Old Girl-New Girl basketball game, and even a lofty senior here and there was known to doff her dignity for a while at least and join in the cheering. Even though we didn ' t exactly win that game, we felt that we were a great deal richer in sportsmanship than ever before. Then one beautiful golden day in October — one of those glorious autumnal days you read about — a wedding was solemnized. With vows of undying friend- ship, loyalty, and love, the Old Girls and the New pledged their troth. We signed our first Student Government pledge three weeks later. With her individual signature, each realized that she gave her solemn pledge to uphold Stu- dent Government and all that the name implies. Hockey season came and went, and with our pride in our team ' s victories went an intense interest in the game. Even those of us who were not athletically inclined seemed not at all averse to learning the rules. Strange, you say? But not so strange when one recalls that even the most charming of instructors gives tests — and the inevitable exam ! The most longed-for day of the whole year came — the beginning of Christmas holidays. With light hearts but increased avoirdupois, we boarded trains, busses, and cars for home. Never was vacation more enjoyed, and never did time seem to go by quite so quickly. But all pleasant things must end, and we soon found ourselves back at school with renewed vigor and zeal for classes, sports, and Liberal Arts Commissions. (In later years, along with other thoughts of our freshman year at H. T. C, will go vivid memories of the long-heralded visits of Liberal Arts Commissions!) Joyfully we viewed the enviable records of the basketball team and thrilled at the thought of our team. The swimming varsity ' s triumph brought forth more pride — pardonable pride when one reflects that, after all, the posession of four members of that team does call for a little excitement. Valentines ! — and a party for our Big Sisters, the Juniors. Shall any of us ever forget the beauty of the queen, the handsomeness of the king, the jollity of the court — or, for that matter, any of the events of that evening? Gay red jackets, flamboyant kerchiefs, tinkling tambourines, lilting song — Freshman Day ! Throughout that day in April, the gipsy red-and-white reigned, and that evening, with The Gipsy Camp, a most successful day came to an end. Vacation ! — and three months of untrammeled freedom. Our first summer holiday as college students naturally was an eventful one. Everyone at home was so much interested in us and so anxious to see how we had changed. The three months passed as if on winged feet, and we soon found ourselves back at Harrisonburg — Sophomores ! Everything took on a different aspect from that of our freshman year, for were we not Old Girls now? We were truly conscious of our newly-found dignity and strove in every way to live up to it and to what everyone expected of us. The increased supply of meal cuts, the even- ings out, and other privileges — all these we truly appreciated and took ad- vantage of. The first activity which united the Sophomore Class into a composite whole was the inter-class hockey games. The Sophomores here proved their mettle with a splendid record. Then, too, we claimed one of the varsity members as our very own. Basketball proved another source of common interest, especially because of the fact that two varsity players were members of our class. At last arrived the crowning event — our day of days ! On March 6, 1931, we celebrated our second Class Day. Originality and modernity were everywhere evinced by the distinctive scheme of the occasion. The green-and-white incorpor- ated in the headgear and impedimenta of the Sophomore aviatrix and, indeed, in every decoration of the day — even to the most minute detail — was very much in evidence. That night the Sophomore Class scored a grand success with the orig- inal production, High-minded. The next day we were thrilled beyond expres- sion when we were informed that pictures of us in our airy costumes, in air- plane formation, were to be made for publication, and that our originality re- ceived the approbation of our fellow students. Then the Senior-Sophomore Dance — what more pleasant could we have had than that ? Everything was wonderful — the decorations — the music — everything ! It could truly be said that a more delightful dance was never given at Harrison- burg, and that the Seniors should certainly receive full credit for instituting and carrying out such a charming affair. Everyone and everything, sooner or later, must come to an end — a terminus. For some of us the break comes now ; for others it is delayed for two more years. Some of us walk across the platform — the cynosure of all eyes — and receive material evidence, in the form of a diploma, of knowledge gained, viewpoints broadened, and dreams realized. It is to those who graduate, while the rest of us look on proudly, that we would say a word of appreciation for what they have contributed to the class. We wish for them every iota of possible success which they, as individuals, may achieve. May those of us who return next year strive to carry high the standards which they have set for us and to uphold the traditions of our Alma Mater! — Cheistobel Chu.ds Sophomore Prophecy MY DIARY OF 1941 January 1 Dear Diary, I made a resolution last night as the New Year rang in. For the first time in my life I have a year to spend exactly as I please. I still wonder why I chose Standard Oil, but I made a sweep anyway. When I was sophomore prophet at H. T. C. I prophesied a wild and romantic future for each of my classmates. Now I ' d like to know how near I came to the real truth. My resolution is to find out what each of those classmates is doing. Do you think I can do it? Wait and see. January 14 I haven ' t made much progress since the last entry, hut I ' m going about it in an organized manner now. I got out the annual of ' 31 and reacquainted myself with the face of every girl. The alphabetical order of pictures and addresses helps a lot. It seems that Sidney Aldhizer, after making good money as a teacher, gave it up lor the wanderlust. She is now in Naples. Frieda Baily is abroad too — in Paris modeling for a very competent young artist. Jack Baker is head of the Red Cross stations throughout Vir- ginia. Great work. Had tea with Man Haga yesterday. She has a book-nook in Wash- ington, the cutest thing, and the latest in poetry. No, she ' s not married. January 27 Dearest Diary. I ' ve dune lots lately. Alice Ashby, though married, is teaching in New Jersey. Catherine Bard is in China doing missionary work. Who ' d ' ve thunk it! Fthel Bat- ten and Ruby Powers have a fine dairy near Lacey Spring. Elizabeth Biller has opened a school for girls in Baltimore. Frances Blackwell is a nurse at Johns Hopkins Hospital — one of their best. Gladda Blose and her husband have a huge farm near Harrisonburg. Those Booker twins, Adele and Ruth, are doing a sister-act in New : York Vaudeville. And run- ning the most modernistic filling station, near Lexington, is Elizabeth Boggs ! Mary Page Bondurant married a guy with oodles of money, and she ' s reclining in the lap of luxury. Oh, yes, Betty Bush wrote me from London. She ' s over there studying voice. She is to be married in New York in June. February 3 I ' m still enthusiastic in spite of the hard work. Bernice Bowden suddenly developed a genius for sculpture and already has won several prizes. Margaret Boykin is known as the Woman Skipper and has her yacht and uniform to match. Marian Bradham has been sent by the government on a mission to Porto Rico. Lola Brumback must have married a cow- boy ; she ' s away out on a Texas ranch. Social service work has won a lot of those sophs : Mildred Burfoot is helping the slums in New York and Martha E llison the Y. W. C. A. Marialyce Collie is with the Salvation Army in Detroit. My latest news was that Ratie Lee Burton is the head waitress in the Ritz-Carlton in N. Y. She says it ' s all due to practice in dear old Blue-Stone. February 11 Dearest Diary, great results since last entry! Emily Bushong sends word she ' s happy in a Tennessee cottage. Mercia Cash and her husband are in the roofing business; and Louise Cave and Lois Revercomb are traveling agents for the Revised-Book-of-Rnowledge com- pany. The well-known Christobel Childs has written several successful novels. Margaret Campbell and Bob Lackey have a dancing school in Richmond, where the Dove twins are running an electrical shop. Pat Clark, the Coyner twins, and Bernice English are on the Women ' s National Athletic Board for Basketball. See what H. T. C. did for them? Here ' s another keeping a book-shop — Frances Land. The Philippines got a great many of our class: Izzy Fridinger, Camilla Dovel, Mabel Gordon and Eunice Fansler; while Elizabeth Dishman, Mae Claytor, Frances Diehl and Madeline Leavell are teaching in Cuba. They say, It pays; come on down ! Mary Coyner has a position in Mary Baldwin College, teaching voice. Quite a few of our bunch landed jobs in colleges. Helen Whitehead is at Hollins, Ida Roach at Farmville, Pete Peterson at the University of Florida, all teaching physical ed. Lois Drewry and Yesta Landes are teaching French and history respectively at Westhampton. February 28 Dear Diary, even more results. Mildred Dickerson and Alice Coleman are teaching in North Carolina; while Beck Comer, Anna Page Edwards, and Julia Fansler are teaching in New York. Speaking of New York, Dorothy Martin is artin ' away for art ' s sake in her own little studio up there. Syd Henderson is doing the same thing in Paris. Louise Dunford is head of the Playground Department for Washington, D. C. Martha Franklin, Lillian Hicks, and Dot Needy went on a pleasure trip to Alaska and stayed. They send word that the spell of the Yukon got them. Modeling for an exclusive dressmaker in New York is Sarah Face. Maurine Gibson is dietitian at Martha Washington College. Dorothy Spencer says she has a wonderful job sampling all the products at a huge bakery in Charleston, W. ' a. And three of our high-fliers have turned aviatrix : Virginia Hallett, Hotense Poyner, and Lillian Holland. Katherine Francis is the matron in a girls ' school in Illinois. March 15 Dear Diary, the girls are getting slow. I may have to send them a second notice. Here ' s the latest: Marguerite Farrar teaching near Roanoke and spanking six daily.

C, and in the same city Alar} ' Sue Goode ' s husband runs a tobacco mill. Jean Gills is Petersburg ' s finest seamstress ; while there, too, is Thelma Frye as woman-police. She ' s showin ' ' em ! The world of journalism has caught quite a number: Sarah McCue, Mary Lasley, Frances Land, and Virginia Fugate send word that they ' re writing for the New York Times. Lee Warren Hammer is editor of the Daily Nezvs-Record of Harrisonburg, and Geneva Getz and Sue Beth Hudson are working with her. Dorothy Gillie is a supervisor in a Columbia training school. Ann Hendricks and Mary Grove are running a Ford place in Birmingham. Mary Sue Goode has Edith McCollum as her partner in a Staunton ice cream establish- ment. Ellen Gordon has one of the largest chicken incubators in the U. S. Hollywood has lured some of our old classmates too: Dot Harley, Gertrude Jones, Louise McMellon, and Lena Reynolds.

Here they are : Elizabeth Kingsolver in Quebec, Bertha Halterman in Chicago, Gladys Groton in New Orleans, Melvina Hammond in Dallas, Betty Harris in Porto Rico, Sarah Johnson in Winchester, Martha Keller in Washington, Lena Joyce in Page County, Sara Jones in Oregon, Laura Humphries in Philadelphia, Thelma Kidd in Kansas City, and Constance MacCorkle in Los Angeles.

It fell one day from the high, protected shelf. Its shell-like exquisiteness rudely shattered : The fragments were slowly, tenderly upgathered, As if the falling had not mattered. — Martha Boaz roems By Frances Snyder REMEMBRANCE 1 did not mind the loneliness, Nor weep that you had gone ; I felt quite self-sufficient, My life went on — and on.

Thf Cross Float The Red Cross Ever since the need was felt for student participation in the work of the National Red Cross, there has been a fine sense of cooperation on our campus. In recent years this enthusiasm has been organized into a working committee under the superv ision of the chairman of the Rockingham County Chapter. The committee, with a student at its head and a member of the faculty acting as an adviser, has been successful in securing definite contributions from a large ma- jority of the students and faculty of the college. The campus drive opened this fall with an assembly program presenting the local as well as the national need for financial aid. For one week the work was pushed energetically forward by willing and generous hands. The drive was brought to a close with the construction of a most significant and attractive float for the Armistice Day parade. Anne R.

The secondary aim of the society is to train girls for member- ship in the other literary societies on the campus and to help these societies to find girls most interested in literary work. The society is organized in small groups, each group choosing the work they wish to study. Various phases of literature were thus studied in these different sections this year.

It was founded on October 8, 1909, and named in honor of Sidney Lanier, the well-loved Southern poet. The Laniers in former years emphasized the study of poetry since their ideal, Sidney Lanier, was a poet. However, this year they have spent two quarters studying the modern novel and have devoted only one to the study of poetry. In thus broaden- ing their field they are true to their aim of progressiveness and purpose.

Since their establishment, the Lees have aspired to uphold the standards set by the founders. This year they have made inter- esting studies of modern poetry, short stories, and drama.

I have become quite a staunch upholder of his numbers. In fact. I believed I had discovered a few more, but alas, so has the rest of the class by now ! Muscles have been a sore point with me for quite a while. After much thinking and meditation I am on the verge, as soon as I can bend my knees, of praying for rubber muscles. Thev would be much more elastic in the long run. I have been told that our present exercises originated for the poor, plodding Danish peasants. No wonder they had such a pessimistic outlook upon life. Even my day dreams are nightmares. 1 never believed Friday a hoodoo dav until after my emergence from gym class two weeks ago, with the consolation that out of sympathy and consideration for beginners a lenient modification of the exercises had been given us. So much can happen from one Friday to another that the suspense is indeed painful. By Thursday I can make a trans-campus flight in three minutes. By Saturday I manipulate a fair representation of a rabbit hop to classes. future generation, 1 am feeling for you. With the farsightedness of the experimental scientist and the Utopian dreams of a reformer, I vision our children clinging to poles and walking on their heads. 1 am in a fathomless predicament. When I should be conjugating verbs, I am singing off commands. Even my room-mate threatens to gag me if I do not stop groaning in my sleep. Other people stare queerly at me when I begin jump- ing like a jumping jack or break into a goose step. After walking on my heels and stepping on my toes, my feet get so mixed up that I can never decide in which direction I am going. Nevertheless, I am quite proud of my one accomplishment, which I owe entirely to the Danish influence. My greatest drawback, especially at meal time, has been my short arms. Now I can actually hold my own at the dinner table. In case I emerge victorious over these Fridays. I am considering very seriously joining a circus this summer, as a human contortionist. However, from my present feelings, after two more Fridays I shall be in excellent trim for a reclining vacation. — Hilda Hisey Athletic Council OFFICERS Mary Watt President Lena Bones ' ice-President ( Ilive Roberson Secretary Mary Haga Treasurer Kitty Wherrett Business Manager MEMBERS Mary Haga Basketball Sport Leader Martha Warren Baseball Sport Leader Frances Ralston Hockey Spurt Leader Hortense Poyner Tennis Sport Leader Evelyn Wilson Swimming Sport Leader Wellford Smith Senior Representative Olive Roberson Junior Representative Emilyn Peterson Sophomore Representative Virginia Sterne Freshman Representative COLLEGE CHEER LEADERS Sally Face Laura Melchor Virginia Carmines R O BERSON W 2, 9 • ■ V ' ' ' ' HAGA WARREN ROLSTON ATH LETI C COUNCIL COYNER, L.

The swimming meets, with their various stunts — gotten up by the several classes — and contests, the life-saving examinations, and the annual visits of Captain Carr make this sport rank high in importance. There are classes for beginners and also for advanced swimmers, each having its respec- tive meets and contests. T ennis Tennis is no new sport at the college, but began with the first year of the school. The Pinquet and Racquet clubs were organized in 1909, and held their first tournament in 1911. Class tennis took the place of these clubs in 1927, and varsity tennis came into being in 1928. Our courts have been in demand all spring. The main feature of tennis this season was the ladder contest, which was greeted enthusiastically by all the tennis lovers. This contest seemed to be quite a drawing card in interesting the beginners in the game. Golf Golf is steadily gaining in popularity on the campus, and the nine-hole course is a favorite resort. It is not only a fasci- nating sport, but the very thing to pep one up after the day ' s work. Those who are beginners are taught in a special class and thus given a good opportunity for learning the game. Not only the students, but also many of the faculty find that a great deal of spare time can profitably be spent on the links.. Class Hockey and Basketball Competition More enthusiasm than ever before was shown in class games this year. The classes arranged inter-class games. The sched- ules and scores for hockey were as follows: Seniors vs. Juniors 0-4 Seniors vs. Sophomores 1-2 Seniors vs. Freshmen 4-0 Juniors vs. Sophomores 0-0 Juniors vs. Freshmen 7-1 Sophomores vs. Freshmen 3-0 The following inter-class basketball games were played : Sophomores vs. Freshmen 37-30 Juniors vs. Freshmen 40-24 Seniors vs. Juniors 4-49 Seniors vs. Sophomores 22-43 Seniors vs. Freshmen 27 25 Sophomores vs. [uniors 13 47 The Juniors were the champions of the season MARY GRACE WATT Best-All-Round HARRIET ATKINSON PEARSON Best Looking SHIRLEY ELIZABETH MILLER Most Dependable S J JEANNETTE CUTTLE INGLE Most Friendly VIRGINIA RUFFIN GILLIAM Most Okic.inal ANNE RADFORD TROTT Most Intellectual LENA BONES Most Athletic HELEN SHELTON McNEELY Most Artistic VIRGINIA LEE STRAILMAN Best Dancer ALMA DONALENE HARVEY Most Dramatic SHIRLEY ELIZABETH MILLER Most Musical EMMA VIRGINIA ZEHMER Wittiest MILLER CICERALE THOMAS BEST ALL ROUND-MOST FRIENDLY MOST ATHLETIC -WITTIEST MOST DRAMATIC-BEST DANCER UNDERSTUDIES HURST TROTT MOST INTELLECTUAL M OST DEPEN DAB LE H BOWERS MOST MUSICAL COLLINS MOST ARTI5T1C STARK SEST LOOKING DUTROW MOST ORIGINAL Supers Best-All-Round Most Intellectual Catherine Wherrett Catherine Markham Most Athletic Franc es Rolston Most Dramatic Most Musical Anne Trott Sadie Finkelstein Most Friendly Lois Winston Best Looking Most Original Grace Dalgety-Kerr Wittiest Louise Wine Frances Snyder Most Artistic Best Dancer Sue Glover Catherine Markham The College Year-Play ACT I •$aS.

The Poet A fool there was, And he lay all day Under the shade of a tree, And he wrote his thoughts With a grey goose quill. Men called him a poet And read his words ; They called him a genius, But all he did Was to lie on the hill And write his thoughts With a grey goose quill. -Lois Funkhouser Old Girl-New Girl Wedding X 2 Expressive Noses Some people speak of our eyes as expressing our character, of kindness shining from these organs or hardness glittering in them. Others tell us that the mouth is the true index to personality, that turned-up corners signify a happy disposition, and downward-sloping ones mean a gloomy frame of mind. But I speak to let you into a secret by means of which you may quickly and accurately catalog a person ' s character and disposition in your mind : Observe his nose. When you have lost at bridge and go dispiritedly to the pawnshop to say Au revoir to your only watch, you are confronted by an old, dried-up, dirty-looking Jewish bargainer who spreads a toothless, oily smile over you. If you go by your old standards, you will allow that friendly smile and those guileless eyes to convince you that your watch is worn out and worthless after all. But wait — follow my advice and study his nose. One can soften the expression of his eyes and mouth, but only a plastic surgeon can change the expression of a nose. Ignore his deception and observe that he has a hooked nose. This will tell you that he is crafty and cunning and that he really should let you have ten dollars on your watch instead of five. Just the opposite of this type is the possessor of the Grecian nose. He is slightly cold and reserved, but very likely to be artis f ic and beautiful himself. Did not nature give him a delicately beautiful nose to start with ? Fortunate is the owner of this type of olfactory organ, for with it goes some talent pertaining to the arts and assuring him success in this line. When you meet the Roman type of nose, look out for strong will and determination. This person will be fond of having his own waj r ; so if you would manage him, take this fact into consideration and conduct your maneuvers accordingly. You see, nose study has its compensation in gaining for us many useful little ideas as to how to get what we want from people whom we did not know how to approach formerly. But I fall in defeat when it comes to advising you upon the character of the unfortunate owner of the upturned, or pug, nose. I can only say that it is a nose of contradictions. According to all laws of reason, this person should be frivolous and undignified. I must confess that I belong to this class, so I can give you the inside information. However, it is a mass of confusion. Take me, for instance. All my life dignity and suavity have been my ideals. Greta Garbo, of all the screen actresses, has the greatest appeal for me. At times, I attain high levels of seriousness and think that I am about to become something worth while, when the force of that upturned nose asserts itself and I see something silly to laugh at or think of something perfectly childish to do. I am beginning to realize that I am hope- lessly tied down for life to bouncing from spells in which I desire to write poetry to periods in which a toasted chocolate sandwich and coca-cola, along with a copy of College Humor, satisfy all my needs, spiritual as well as physical. Of course, I do not mean that all people are clearly divided into these four classes. There is a multitude who seem to belong to no special type. These people combine the char- acteristics of several of the distinct molds. I do not claim that my statement holds true in every case, either, but it is interesting to watch how very frequently a person ' s nose pro- claims his individuality and announces what we may expect of him. This has come to be my most absorbing hobby when in a crowd, and I will recommend it as a delightful pastime. — Madaline Newbill @E a. (Ehrslry S.

Once in a while the branches of the trees, too heavily burdened, released their load with a sudden slithering sound. The forest was silent with that silence that only a snowstorm brings, while the whole world lies waiting with hushed voice. All night the big, white flakes fell, until they came farther and farther apart, and finally ceased. Dawn came, and the rising sun cast a rosy glow over a white world. In a tiny cabin at the edge of a little clearing two eyes slowly opened, but at the sight of what lay outside the window they widened swiftly and happily. David jumped up and ran to the window, gazing excitedly out. Grandfather, look! he exclaimed. It snowed last night and covered everything! The grandfather rose more slowly and walked over to David ' s side. Oh, boy, it is beautiful, but it means that one more winter has come. We must make a trip down to the city today, he went on, half to himself, before the heavy snows come. It is late, almost the end of December, and that means that we ' ll be snowed in late in the spring. Still talking, he walked over to the stove and, stirring up last night ' s embers, began to prepare breakfast. When the meal was finished, he turned to David: Hoy, there is enough snow to use a sled, and 1 must go to Newman. Would you like to go too? O Grandfather, you know 1 would! I ' ve never been there, and I ' m almost eight years old. He ran to the old man and caught him happily by the hand. Well, well, said grandfather, patting the child on the head. I ' m glad you like the idea so well. Now run and get ready, for it is a long journey, and it will be mid-afternoon before we get there. All day the sled glided smoothly between the forest walls, both the old man and the child coasting down the slopes and walking on the up-grades. There was no track, and they passed no sign of human habitation, but it never occurred to David to doubt that his grandfather knew the road. By four o ' clock it was dark, but the glow in the sky ahead told them they w : ould soon reach Newman. In a moment they topped a rise, and there below them lay opened a casket, lined with black velvet and filled with diamonds and pearls. See that, David? asked the grandfather softly. The} paused a minute more and then started down the slope into the fairyland. Nor was David disappointed in that fairyland. To him, the streets were not filled with slush; the people were not jostling and hurried; the glitter of the lights and windows was not mere tinsel. To him was not revealed the lust, the greed, the hatred, in the eyes of many passers-by. All the world must be happy because of his happiness. Then suddenly just before him stood a jolly-looking, white-whiskered man, all dressed in red. He was standing by a brick chimney. It seemed that all the children in the world were crowding around him, gleefully shouting and laughing. Hello, there, little one! Was he — could he be — really talking to David? What do you want for Chr istmas? The child looked around timidly for his grandfather, but he was talking to some man standing near. Please, sir, ventured the boy, I don ' t know. Oh, come now. Don ' t be afraid. What do you want Santa Claus to bring you? ' Please, sir — who is Santa Claus? And what is Christmas? The man ' s eyes widened. He reached down and picked up David, and stand- ing him there on the chimney, in the glare and noise and bustle of the city, told him the story of the Christ-child. When he finished, the grandfather was standing by his side. Thank you, he said in a low voice. His mother would thank you, sir, if she were living. Somehow, I could never tell him — after she died. Then he and David dis- appeared in the crowd. Who is that bird? the Santa Claus asked the man to whom the grandfather had been talking. He lives up there in the mountains all by himself with the boy. First time I ' ve ever seen the kid. Don ' t know why they stay up there in the backwoods. The old man worshipped the child ' s mother. Well. I ' ll be dog-goned ! I wonder .... Say, listen ... Two days later the cabin in the forest was occupied again. Life went on as before, except that, before the fire in the evening, after the boy was in bed and asleep, the old man sat and worked. Under his knife, bits of wood turned into Indians, soldiers, cows, horses, and dogs. I have neglected Christmas these many years, and I haven ' t much money; but David ' s first Christmas shall be the best I can make it, he murmured. The fire-light flickered and gleamed through the dark cabin night after night until the last toy was finished. The day before Christmas the old man set out to find the Christmas tree, leaving David in the cabin to act as housekeeper and have everything all nice and warm. The snow was deep, and snowshoes made the exercise hard. He walked slowly, watching for a good tree. Only a perfect one would he have ; the best was none too good for David. Here and there in the snow, tracks showed. Sometimes it was a rabbit and sometimes a fox, and once it yas a big wolf. Bushes cracked stealthily now and then, and sudden rustlings could be heard. Once he startled some ptarmigan, and then saw a fox sneak off silently through the underbrush. Again a big shadow drifted silently overhead and then as silently was gone. Nearby he heard a sudden scuffle, a squeak, and all was still again. It was noon, and he stopped to eat his bit of lunch. Good trees were certainly hard to find. He started on aga in, thinking that he ought to be heading back soon. Perhaps on the other side of the next ridge he would find his tree. He walked on. The bare trunks of the pines made black patterns on the snow. Their branches loked like lace against the sky. A grey squirrel jerked his tail and ran up a pine tree, only to leap across into the next one. At last he found it. It was perfect — not too tall, not too bushy, but graceful and well-shaped. He cut it down and, dragging it behind him, started back to- ward the cabin. The shadows lengthened and deepened, and the sun dropped behind a peak. The moon grew brighter and. as the last traces of daylight faded away, rode serenely in the sky. She turned the forest into a mysterious place, an abode for departed spirits, a fit haunt for ghosts. From far away rose a haunting, lonely call, floating, drifting out over the still forest and going on and on. The rustling sounds in the undergrowth grew louder and more frequent. Silent feet fell into the soft snow. Sometimes even the bushes moved. No, they didn ' t; it was just the effect of the moonlight. The Christmas tree was taking root again — or was some big animal sitting on it to keep him from getting it to David? Where was David? In the cabin, of course. But how (lid one reach the cabin? Where was it? North, south, east, or west? And where was north? lie was lost. In spite of the many years he had lived in the forest, he was lost. His eyes were getting old, and the moonlight could play queer tricks. Hut David — what would happen to David? The old man sank to his knees in the soft, pure snow and lifted his eyes to heaven. ( ) God, hear me. I know I don ' t deserve to be heard, but for the sake of thy dear son. hear me. who ask this for one of thy little ones. I don ' t mind dying when my time has come, for I am old and have no fear of death. If this is my time. Lord. 1 bow my head in resignation. But, God, what will become of David ? 1 le will be alone in the wilderness. He doesn ' t know the way to the city, and no one would come up here after him. He is young, and has his life to live and his work to do in the world. Please, ( God, let me live until I see that he is safe. Then I ' ll be content. You sent a star to lead the Wise Men to Bethlehem. Won ' t you send me a star to guide me to my boy? As he prayed, a light shone in the sky. and a shining white star shot across the heaven to disappear behind a ridge. Stumbling to his feet, with a patan of joy in his heart and on his lips, the old man walked unsteadily toward the crest of the ridge. Pulling the Christmas tree behind him, he went on until he came to the top. There below him gleamed a tiny light, shining through a little cabin window. He hastened on as fast as his faltering steps would permit, and the light shone brighter and brighter. At last his hand was on the latch. He opened the door and looked straight into David ' s corner. The boy was asleep. Then he turned. There on the floor stood a tree, shining and sparkling with crystal and tinsel. On the floor were books, toy animals, a farmhouse, a drum, a picture of the Boy Jesus. Under this was a note, on which was inscribed, Merry Christmas from Santa Clans and then, below it, I will be back tomorrow. The old man sank upon his knees, whispering. Thank you. God, and then slipped quietly to the floor — his heart at rest. The slumbering boy smiled peacefully. They say children are dreaming of angels when they smile in their sleep. — Sarah Lemmon hHHD 415 .i f ' : i s. ; in ,x t «, T ,.: Wedd ings March 15, 1929 .Miss Matilda Finley P.ell to Mr. Harold Ross Stone Charleston, West Virginia August 1, 1929 Miss Pauline Harbine Callender to Dr. Frank Herbert Gorham Rockingham November 26, 1929 Miss Dorothy Rebecca Cox to Mr. Charles S.

Never would 1 play bridge with married women again. 1 could not enter into the conversation, he- cause I had no child who had nearly scared me to death when he swallowed a pin ; neither was I worried because the baby refused his orange juice. The fact that the baby ' s diet list now allowed him scraped beef did not interest me in the least. Why must women worry and talk so much about their children? I looked at my watch. It was five minutes past time for Fido ' s afternoon walk. — Kathkyn Firehavoh ECHOES There is a cove by the seashore, a cool, secluded cove where the waves send echoes. Tall pine trees, with slim, strong branches and silky winds in their leaves, stand calmly there. ( ne might think them guards in a giant fairyland, watching over the hall of their queen. Soft waves slush quietly against the sands, wind-driven waves come to the edge of the cove, rush back to the sea. Mostly it is cool there, with quiet echoes and rustling winds. Some- times seagulls scream above the water. And a fat man in overalls comes there to eat his lunch. — Blanche Schulf.r THE PERSON ACROSS THE HALL What a nuisance the person across the hall can be. She comes in at any hour and talks whether you want to talk or not. She bobs in to ask your opinion on something and then pays as much attention to your advice as if you ' d never given it. She stops in to ask what time it is. to borrow your best dress or anything else she may need. Yes, there ' s no doubt about it, the person across the hall is a big nuisance. I often wish I could do away with her entirely. But then, whom would I talk to, ask advice of, and borrow from? — Ken Bird THE CHRYSLER TOWER In the early morning sunshine the man-made monument to the god Business gleamed like a medieval knight ' s shining spear thrust upright into the ground. Thin and tapering to a shining metallic point near the soft contrasting blue of the sky stood this giant of business. The atmosphere around seemed saturated with an air of serenity borrowed from it. One would not believe that inside there could be telephones that jangled and typewriters that clicked and a busy hurry-flurry of people taking care of millions of dollars. But in front of the Chrysler tower, built out of the fortune an automobile had created, two upstate honeymooners had hitched their horse and buggy. — Audrey Cassell INSPIRATION Taking a deep breath, the professor continued his lecture in a scholarly tone. He wasn ' t a failure after all. If his class was a source of real interest and inspiration to one person — just one — then he had not lived and taught in vain. At last he had discovered that one person. She sat near the back of the room taking notes diligently from time to time. Her black hair waved softly back from her forehead, and her serious brown eyes looked steadily at the professor when she wasn ' t busy writing in her notebook. There was something about her that told him that she was a girl w 7 ith common sense, a girl of taste and refinement, am- bitious and intellectual — a girl who really appreciated the influence of the ancient Greeks and Romans upon modern civilization. The businesslike way in which she seemed to be taking notes inspired him to greater eloquence. He didn ' t know that the words she was writing were addressed to a girl friend and concerned a certain cadet with blue eyes and light curly hair. — Frances Rose Wood The Midwinter Dance POP Comedy In a discussion at the table, Virginia Stark said, No use to worry over stu- dent teaching; just remember the children don ' t know as much as you do. Martha Boaz asked at once, Did you teach the ungraded section? Heard at the Alumnae Minstrel: Mr. Hanson : I had the funniest dream last night. 1 dreamt that 1 was in heaven walking down the street, and I met Mr. Mcllwraith. Dk. Pickett: Oh, you were not in heaven. In a Sophomore English Class, an answer on a test paper read as follows: Drama originated among the ancient Greeks with the worship of the wine- god Dionysius, at Christmas and Easter. Student (to Librarian) : Have you any books on art? Librarian : Yes, quite a number. Student : My art teacher said something about two — one thick and the other thin. I ' ll take the thin one. Mr. Chappelear says he can ' t tell his wife any secrets. Not that she can ' t keep them; it ' s just that her friends can ' t. Speaking of absent-minded professors, Dr. Howe looked at her watch the other day to find out the date, and Miss Coe started out to breakfast one rainy morning with a whiskbroom instead of an umbrella. Did Mr. Duke swathe the new boxwood shrubs head-and-ears in burlap so that he might have an unveiling as part of the ceremony on Dedication Day? Nancy Trott (to Evelyn Wilson, who was pouring the last of the cream into her coffee) : Evelyn, is that enough cream? Evelyn : Yes, if nobody wants any more. Ouizzie (in dining hall Sunday ) : Take your paper bag and pass out. Pauline Carmines: Huh — well, 1 guess I will after I eat it.

This fire is to welcome back the Sun after his long pilgrimage in the frosts and darkness of Winter. After sacrifices are offered, Aillil, Queen of the May and High Priestess of the Altar Fire, rekindles the flame by her magic power. Procession of Priests (Gaelic words) Brvn Mawr Lantern Song Glee Club Greeting to the Sun Old Irish Tune Glee Club ' Tis May, M ay-day, we ' re gathered here To welcome from his travels afar The glorious Sun. O Sun, O Sun, bringer of light and joy, In praise of thy radiant face so rare We sing to thee.

Her lovely face full of radiance, So luminous with purity and wisdom rare ; All graceful things of word and thought The gods have brought ; The greatest gifts that can be given Beauty and power. Aillil, Aillil waits to light the fire. And those who would her guardians be Must prove their worth. A valiant band, bravest of all the brave, To guard the honor of the Queen Throughout the year.

Many printers do as good work as we, and a few do better, perhaps. But those that do better, charge a great deal more. We believe we are the second largest printers of annuals in Virginia. We know that year after year we print the same books, which indicates that our customers like our work. Fur- thermore we usually do any new annual that is put out in our territory, which indicates that our work is appre- ciated where we are best known. We always strive to carry out intelligently and in good taste the theme a staff selects. Intelligence, good taste, what wonderful words are these when applied to an annual. They mean ' that the printer is to enter into the spirit of the work and transfer to the printed page the vision of beauty pictured in the mind of the editor. The} ' mean that he is to guard the staff against the visionary, the gaudy, and the need- lessly expensive, by constructive and conscientious advice.
