HOW TO STUDY FOR AN EXAM I don’t pretend to know everything about studying for an exami- nation, but I do know a few tricks of the trade. Not that I get good marks on my exams or anything like that, but I often wonder what kind of marks I would get if I studied differently. It’s not a pleasant thought. When I study for an exam, I always surround myself with food so that whenever I get hungry, which I frequently do, I don’t always have to run out to the kitchen. For people on diets who can easily forget them, this is fine, but for the unlucky person who has a conscience, it is not advisable. Another way is to study in the kitchen, but to avoid interruptions such as the constant opening and dosing of tire icebox door and tire general confusion which usually centers itself in our kitchen—I always study in the library. A good thing to do is to tell your family that your next exam is going to be really tough. Try it sometime and you'll find yourself in the lap of luxury. You’ll be waited on hand and foot. Last year I tried this and, surprisingly enough, it worked. My younger sister, who would ordinarily do anything in her power to avoid helping me, took tele- phone messages and replenished my supply of Coca Cola whenever it ran low. My mother cooked my favorite dinner and brought it in to me at my convenience. When exam week was over, it took me a while to get back into the regular routine of serving myself. If you aren’t really pressed for time, it’s sometimes fun to take a break. Now going to the A P with my mother is not my idea of fun, but I went one day just to get my mind off history for a while. (For some people taking their minds off a subject can be disastrous, but it doesn’t seem to bother me.) Somehow, the exciting atmosphere of the A P did not sufficiently keep my mind off history, and I began re- citing aloud the deeds of Henry VIII while hunting for a bottle of Clorox. I soon noticed the many questioning stares which were directed toward me, and I could imagine people saying, “How peculiar, how singularly odd, whatever is wrong with the girl? I was extremely embarrassed. For reasons known only to me and the people who read this, I manage to have fun while preparing for an exam. That I am not a master of the art, though, is made evident by my exam grades, and I still have a lot to leam. What I have learned is that, although it doesn't happen very often, once in a while studying can be fun. . . . Julie Graham THE DANCING GIRLS It was a cold day. The last birds were flying south. The wind whistled around the trees and put them snugly into bed for the long winter ahead. Squirrels could be seen scampering up and down with last minute shopping. The two dancing girls on the edge of Kingswood lake smiled at the coming of Winter, for they knew that Lady Winter had just about finished her sparkling blanket and was ready to lay it silently over the earth. As the last little animal and tree went to bed, down came the snow. Softly it rested on the ground. It gathered in sparkling tufts on the arms and shoulders of the dancing girls, and even made white tiaras for their crowns. “Don't I look lovely, exclaimed one excitedly. Look at my gown, whispered the other. The snow kept falling. Soon it covered the trees, making the scene into fairyland. The lake also had a glistening cover, and skaters could be seen twirling about. Laughter filled the air. and the smell of Christ- mas was at hand. Christmas trees and lovely decorations were in every window and store. School closed and joyous shouts could be heard. “Merry, Merry Christmas! Happy New Year! The dancing girls were all alone. The trees, the flowers, the squirrels, everything was quiet. The lake in its massive splendor, die falling, swirling snow fascinated the girls. Each sparkle on the lake and every different snowflake was like music to them. As the months went by. the earth lost its barrenness. Mistress Spring painted the earth with her beautiful blossoms and green grass. Birds filled the once-barren trees which were now stretching and yawning after the long sleep. Squirrels scampered through the trees. The lake had lost its sparkling cover. Gently it carried the beautiful reflections around it. The blossoms soon fell from the trees like a shower of pink and white snow. Summer had begun, The thought of Summer was sad, foe the seniors would say good-bye to Kingswood. the Dancing Girls, and the quiet rippling lake. But it was not all sad, for in a little while, many new faces would come to Kingswood and enjoy the beauty of it and become part of it and proud of it as so many others had before. Tills kept their hearts happy. . . Alison War drop
