If in any case the menagerie should es cape, we advise the lower classmen to follow the Seniors’ ex- ample. So don’t be frightened if you see atiny, fuzzy quadruped come down the ventilator, but let him play with your shoe-string and keep your — mind on your work. w We offer a cordial welcome to all the new pupils who have entered old L.

—— THE MAGNET 15 for her on the way. Ella timidly knocked at the door of the little cottage. A tall woman came, with outstretched hands, to meet her. Ella gave the leaves to Grace. Then she asked Mrs. Alden if Grace might come. The mother thought Grace was not strong enough. But both girls pleaded, and Ella promised she would take care of her, so Mrs. Alden consented. Poor little Grace was in an ecstasy of joy, because Ella Martin, the president of the Girls’ Club,” had invited her to a Hallowe’en party. She could hardly wait for night to come, but it did come at last, for “ the long- est day has a night.” The Goblins assembled in a barn which they had hired. They were having refreshments in the“hay-loft, when the cry of fire arose. Some one had forgotten to put out their candle, and it had set the dry hay on fire. There was one moment of silence. Then all the Goblins rushed for the lad- der. The girls helped Grace out. They were all out safely, when some one said, ‘Where is Ella Martin?” By this time a good-sized crowd was at the scene. Mrs. Martin had Marguerite, but Ella was missing. Little Grace was standing white and trembling when, as if moved by magic, she made one spring for the ladder. She pulled herself up by her hands to the door, She caught hold of Ella’s hand, and dragged her over to the ladder. Ella’s father sprang up the lad- der, and brought the girls down to two frightened mothers. Ella was over the shock soon, but poor little Grace was in bed for a Jong while. She was happy, though, for every one loved her now, instead of shunning her be- cause she couldn’t walk like the rest of the girls. Marguerite and Ella came every day with their arms laden with roses. Ever after that Marguerite never thought of having an entertainment | or party without having the “ Goblia Heroine” present. oo eee oO eee” or ETHEL M. Ryan, ’I5. Charlie (at a children’s party): Now I am going to do a clever con- juring trick, and I want three plums and three hats. The plums and the hats being provided, he proceeded to eat up the three plums. Now,” he said, “under which hat would you like to see these plums?” The particular hat being indicated, he placed it on his head. “Only fools are certain, Tommy; wise men hesitate.” “ Are you sure, uncle?” “Yes, my boy; certain of it.”

The first one went up to the gate- tender and said: “I’m Starlight’s owner,” then passed in. The second stepped up and said: “Starlight’s driver,” he also went in. The third one looked at the gate- tender, and in a low voice said: ‘ I’m Starlight,” and then joined his com- panions. w HEADS OF HOUSES. Germany—husband. France—wife. England—eldest son. America—daughter. w Scamp’ring through the halls you see them, Like untrained colts in the meadows green; | Never look where they are going, | Only of themselves they dream. | But every one must be a Freshman To reach that goal four years away; So don’t find fault with these beginners, Let them be happy in their play. w Miss Grant: What do we have in the mouth of the Kennebec River? Pupil: Bath.
