Debating Club John Marshal1's Debating Club, under the direction of Philip jenkins, was organized to acquaint students with the proper procedure in debating, to aid them to present their arguments in a clear, concise manner, and to detect flaws in their opponent's line of reasoning. Two debates with Franklin High have been held, and it is hoped that the club will 'hold several more with other schools next year. Dramatics Club The Dramatics Club, organized under the direction of Mr. Fred Myers, is the largest of the various John Marshall Clubs. The club gives an opportunity for an extensive study of plays, playwrights and actors, the history of the stage and theater, and the use of stage costumes of various forms. C- French Club Beta Chapter of Les Babillardsn has been kept busy this term under the siipervision of Mrs. Merritt Baker. It has helped in the publication of Les lgiavardsn the French paper and furnished an entertainment for the supper attended by all the chapters in the city. Girls' Choral Club Girls' Choral Club was organizediby Miss Mary MacQueen for girls inter- ested in singing. - They hold their meetings every Friday morning before school. Their voluntary entertainments in assemblies and in the halls have been greatly appreciated. twenty-two 1 Jo-Mar Under the able direction of Mr. Ward Miller the Jo-Mar has continued its monthly publications at Marshall in spite of the financial depression. It is a valuable influence as the medium of unity between all the students. Latin Club Gamma Chapter of the Optimates, Latin Honor Society, has been organized for the purpose of furthering an interest in Roman classics among the students. Under the Latin Department it has made a fine start with thirty-five new members. . Library Club ' Members of the Library Club have been receiving excellent experience as librarians. They offer one or more periods of service a week to Miss Besse Grinnell. Their assistance proved invaluable in the moving of the library to its new and larger quarters. Literary Club The Literary Club of john Marshall High School, under the supervision of Miss Katharine Monaghan, meets once every two weeks and its purpose is to better the literary knowledge of its members, by studying novels, novelties and the styles of different authors-not only American authors but foreign as well. They also have speakers of note come to speak to them about certainliterary topics.

GIRLS' SPORTS i Among the leading girls' sports baseball has the most followers. Eight organized teams play every Monday night under the direction of Miss Ruth Van De Walle. Her dancing class is also well attended, especially by freshmen. Girls interested in hiking follow this sport under the leadership of Miss Doris Foster, who is also in charge of tennis, which is held two nights during the week. twentygfour Basketball Tearri Top row, left to right: Nucchi, Klein, Berner, managerg Gratzer, Sizerg bottom row: Triano, Smith, Sonderman, Pilaroacia. ' . . - As predicted at the beginning of the season, Marshall's basketball team proved to be a championship one. b Composed of four veterans from' last' year's varsity squad and the remainder from last year's reserves, it proved itself. as fast, clever, and practically unbeatable quint. -They won thirteen out of the fourteen league games, being defeated by Tech after they had the pennant in theirhandsq They owe a .great deal to the brilliant coaching of Albert Makin. H 7 4 Nucchi and Smith did excellent jobs at forwards, Sondermangoutjumped all but one center, and Gratzer and Triano made up the backbone of the defense at the guard positions. The pony boys Klein, Sizer, Pilaroscja, and Isabella showed their mettle in many games. Nucchi and Sonderman were elected to the Times4Union and Democrat and Chronicle all-scholastic teams. ' E , , Winning the city championship, the Marshall cohorts had the privilege of representing Rochester in the State sectional meet at the University of Rochester. They easily defeated Geneseo, 46-24, but were eliminated after a tough battle with Canandaigua by the score of 32-23. They would not end the season with a loss, however, and copped their consolation game with Lyons by 29 to 20. Also, Nick Nucchi brought honor to Marshall, by winning the foul shooting contest. He tossed in 26 out of 30 fouls. At the end of the season the team was given a dinner by the two Hi-Y's, at which each member was presented with a gold basketball charm by Mr. Ulrich. This brought an end to a very colorful basketball season. The reserve team also were very successful. They ended up in second place which proves that there is good material for future varsity squads. twenty five ' mlm I -, LIIHEIAI' Extreme Measures Prize Story 5 ARK eyes peering from between cool green leaves watched from on high the tiny speck' of white. Under the blazing sun of the 'A ' 'J' South Seas the speck drifted lazily out to sea with the tide. The two occupants of the yawl waved a final good-bye to the islanders, and then busied themslves with the sails as a breeze caught the mainsail and sent it scurrying across the deck. They're a wonderful people, Doc! ex- claimed Mr. XVilliam Gwlnnet, jr., better known as Bill to Doc. Right you are, Bill, said the Doc, whose name when written in full was Doctor Henry Richards. And so carefree and so hospitable, Bill went on, not noticing the Doc's reply. You know, Doc, I'd like to live down here. Not much to do, I mean not much work is neces- sary, and it's so restful and romantic and . . . Yeah, interrupted the Doc, and there are snakes and sharks and storms and-oh well, all of my people, American I mean, all think the same way. It's all right when you're just vacationing down here Bill, but as to living here the rest of one's life, I don't know. Uh huh, grunted Bill in a dreamy wayg anyway, I think I'd like to stay here just the same. The Doc looked at Bill and sighed. Yes, he knew how Bill felt. But that feeling would be entirely gone when they were once more out at sea. W'ork does wonder for a man, twenty-six and work, he hoped, would do wonders for Bill. Doc knew about Bill's being shell- shocked during the war. Bad case too, accord- ing to government reports. Not that Bill showed any signs of it. Quite the contrary. He was a calm, intelligent person, quiet in his ways and not bothering anyone. Nice chap, Doc decided, and he reached for an orange that was rolling aimlessly about the deck. Bill watched Doc reach for the orange. A queer duck, he thought, But he liked Doc. Doc had met Bill in a New York club, and Bill in a friendly moment had mentioned that he had been over-seas. Doc said that he too had been in France. Bill invited Doc to his apartment the next night and Doc invited Bill to go on a round-the-world cruise. And that's how they happened to be sailing in this para- dise. Bright -blue skies above and warm blue waters surrounding them. Ah, truly a heaven. Yes, truly a heaven until Doc stretched languidly and gently hinted that it was Bill's turn to get the meal. Bill grunted an unin- telligible reply and turned over. Doc slid gently across the smooth deck, abandoning the tiller for a moment, and struck Bill a resound- ing whack on the head. Bill jumped up, just in time to meet the mainsail, which, when Doc let the tiller go, had caught the breeze and swung sharply to port. XVith a slight gasp he sank motionless to the deck. Doc secured the tiller with the guide ropes along the side of the yawl, and then gently lifted Bill to the cabin below the deck. After inspecting the wound, Doc bandaged Bill's head and settled him comfortably on the bed. Bill, he thought, would be unconscious for a few minutes. He decided to go up on deck and see how the weather looked. It wouldn't do to go too far to sea with Bill injured. Arriving on deck Doc gazed out over the waters. Not a ship in sight. Vtfeather con- ditions seemed very favorable. He lit his pipe and sat down, with his back to the tiller, look- ing in the direction of the little island, which had already disappeared. A slight noise interrupted the thinking man and he turned around. There, framed in the doorway, stood Bill, with a broomstick in his hands, held like a bayonet. Hair disheveled, eyes wild, and mouth twisted in a diabolical grin he charged the Doc, muttering incoherent noises. He jabbed viciously at Doc with the broomstick and Doc jumped hastily aside. Turning quickly Doc met Bill's second rush with a well aimed blow. Down Bill went, but he soon recovered. He jumped to his feet, grunting something about a rotten, dirty bunch, the whole gang of you, and hit Doc a stinging crack. Back and forth they swayed, punching and grunting. Finally Doc, with a strong right-hand blow, felled Bill. Bill dropped and could not rise. Doc picked him up and took him below. The yawl was headed into the wind, churn- ing the waters at every foot. Spray dashed over the bow and sprinkled Doc, who was settled amidships, from head to toe. Doc's eyes were bleary, but he had an alert air, as is expecting something to happen. But Bill appeared quietly from the cabin, greeted the medical man carelessly, and inquired about their next stop. Oh, I don't know, answered Doc, I thought maybe y0u'd like to stop at the Isle of Yari, an interesting volcanic formation, and we can get food and water again. Yeh, said Bill absently, how long will it take to get there? Oh, we should get there by evening, he answereditlioughtfully, that is, if the wind holds out like this. But-a-we- Bill stammerecl, bewild- ered, then he went below abruptly, without finishing his question. He reappeared shortly, smoking a cigarette. He leaned on the rail, gazing thoughtfully out to sea. Doc, he said slowly, what has been going on around here? We shouldn't need water as far as I knowg yet I just looked and found we did. And your desk calendar is five days ahead of schedule, as far as I can figure out. The food is lower too, and how did I get this gash on my forehead ? Well, Doc answered, looking up at him seriously, I'll tell you the whole story. You may remember that I took a swing at you in fun when you didn't want to cook dinner. I was a fool to get playful with that mainsail swinging back and forth. Anyway, it hit you a nasty crack on the head, but the gash wasn't the only result. To come to the point, Bill, you went back to war, and mistook me for a Heinie. Lucky thing I knew about your case, it saved both of us. I managed to bring back your reason, but you were still in bad shape-- nervous strain. mostly, and the blow itself didn't help any. So I kept you under morphine to give your brain a -chance to heal, afraid you might get more notions about the war. You came out of it this morning, and thank God, you're O. K. Bill flicked his cigarette stub over the rail. I see, he said quietly. How on earth did you bring back my senses FU Not so difficult as it might seem, Bill. I simply scared you into your wits, since you were already out of them. A few dish-pans and covers tied on to the flapping sail so they'd hit together and make enough racket and con- fusion to sound like a battlefield scene to your hazy brain, I fired a few shots to give you the smell of powder. You were bound securely to the mast, and yelling rather incoherently. Then, shouting all the German curses I could think of, I lunged at you with a bayonet made twenty-seven of the broomstick and a kitchen knife. .But instead of the knife hitting you, a piece of ice I had in my hand-my right hand steadying the knife-'sliced' you, and the knife only carved up the mast a bit. But your foggy head misinterpreted signals, and you thought you were killed. Quite a shock, naturally, and you came out of it. The younger man turned toward the doctor with a twisted grin on his face. Screaming wildly, Get that Heinie, the dirty rat, he jerked his hand out of his pocket leveled the revolver he always carried, at the doctor, and fired all six shots rapidly into the body of his companion. Laughing crazily he' stumbled forward toward the body. But, with a loud creak, the mainsail whizzed across the deck again. Poor crazed Bill was knocked overboard, unconscious. And there are sharks in the waters of the southern Pacific. A steamer sailing majestically along its course noted that a yawl nearly in its path failed to return the pilot's warning. All on board were completely mystified to learn the results of the investigation which followed. A man was found on board, dead, with six bullets in his body. No one else was aboard, and the only gun on the boat contained six unfired cartridges. THOMAS ENRIGHT, Il-l --.oL1Qi-u--- Advertisements OULDN'T it be strange to open a magazine or newspaper and Find no advertisements? Yet it would be sad too, for what is more in- ' vigorating than the funny but absurd ads that are in these papers or books. Perhaps the best known of any advertise- ment is the much talked of T1lCj'FIGHgllCd-'Zt'lLC7l- I-sat-dotwz-to-play one. That really is funny. The witty person will go on and on trying to Find or originate a good ending to it. So far he hasn't succeeded. If you are trying to be the life of the party, pull that one. It fits in at any occasion and always draws a dirty look. Another sort of ad that always gets a laugh is the usual letters from Mrs. Asparagus on how she weighed 295 pounds and couldn't lose an ounce until Mrs. Carrots told her about the famous I lllaku Slim Pills. Now she has fallen away to only 294. Or it may be some- thing like this: A picture of an old man with a flowing white beard and numerous wrinkles, or should I say crow's feet, is seen on one side of the page. On the other side we see youth in all its glory depicted by a Pepsodent grin, beautiful curly hair, an arrow collar, and a rosy complexion. This is the some man after one night's sleep on Sleep-Eze Beal Springs. We turn the page, and our eyes behold a gorgeous blond creature, in amoreigorgeous twenty-eight evening-gown, on her hands and knees mop- ping the kitchen Hoor, and on her face is the patient and beatific smile of an angel. Under the picture is written VVhy let mopping be a drudge? Simple buy an Eye-Catclmm Dirt Mop. Even your best friendsbwill mop your floor for you then. Soap advertisements are as funny as a Micky-Mouse Comedy. One finds Mrs. XX-'hite hanging out a beautiful snow-white wash in her backyard. Over the fence we catch a glimpse of Mrs. Black staggering under the load of a smoky-toned wash in an old battered basket. Here we also spy several holes in the good family linen. In the next scene, Mrs. Xlfhite rushes to the gate, beckons to Mrs. Black and says, My dear Mrs. Black, what a dirty wash you have. See how white mine it. Next month, you must try Dip-fmd- If's-Clmii-Soap. I always use it. The more you look, the more you laugh, and so you continue on and on through the book, forgetful of the thrilling murder 'story you started to read. And if you feel ill on a streetcar, just look at the advertisements of soup, soap, tooth-paste, fountain-pens, re- frigerators, Hoor-wax, linoleum, molasses, typewriters, chewing-gum, F lit, and corn- plasters. You'll feel much better. .. Dorothy Leonard, .IV-2. r si I Qu, iles? Q T . t . 5 X 'Q ' . af'a 2.

Previously our thoughts dwelt on duffle bags, moccasins, woolen shirts, newly- sharpened hatchets, and haversacks in disre- pair.

There is a tugging at our hearts-a hunger for the open road, for the solace of the blazing stars, impersonal yet somehow near, as the camp-fire embers dull to gray, and the smoke-spirals vanish overhead. I cannot praise summer without a thought of other seasons, for they are equally enjoy- able in my experience. The late fall months are ideal hiking and camping months.

Camping has no great popularity today because men have the idea that it is possible only after an expensive journey to the wildernessg and women that it is inconvenient, dirty, and dangerous. These are errors. They have arisen because camp- ing as an art has not been understood. When intelligently followed, camplife must take its place as a cheap and delightful way of living, as well as a mental and physical savior of those strained or broken by the grind of the over-busy world. Coupled with camp-life is the enthralling camp-Fire. What is camp without a camp-fire? No camp at all, but a chilly place in a land- scape. where some people happen to have some things. VVhen First the brutal anthrapoicl stood up and walked we had man. The great event was symbolized by the lighting of the first campfire. For millions of years our race has seen in the fire the emblem of light, warmth, pro- tection, friendly gathering, and council. The center of ancient thought was in the hearth and fireside. The home tie itself was weak- ened with the waning of the home-fire. Not in the steam radiator can we find the spellg not in the water coil or even the gas log-they do not reach the heart. Only the sacred fire of wood has power to touch and thrill the chords of the memory. When men sit together at the camp-fire they seem to shed all modern form and poise, to hark back to the primitive -to meet as man to man. Your campfire partner wins your love, or hate, mostly your loveg and having camped in peace together, there exists a lasting bond of union-however wide your worlds may be apart. John VVilcox, iv-2. My Pup ' ' is often said that man's best friend is his dogg I should say that that the truth of this state- ment rests upon the dog. How many stories one has read, how many pictures one has seen that illustrate the unsellish devotion of a dog for his master. Supposing, like Plato, one is determined not to take another's word on this, but experiment for oneself. The first requisite is, of course, the dog. You betake yourself to a kennel or pet store, and if you can make your request audible over the shrill, excited yapping issuing from the rear regions, signify your desire to be shown some particular breed of dogs, spaniels, for example. It takes a heart of flint and steel to resist a cocker spaniel's soulful brown eyes and long, silky, iiapping earsg and you find yourself trotting out of the shop with a warm, doggy, little bundle under arm, a pedigree in hand, and some thirty-live dollars less in the pocket. Arriving home, you release the puppy and watch him wabble about the rooms on his ridiculous legs, exploring every corner. Al- though you d0n't realize it, he is discovering prospective meals in the form of shoes and rubbers, and convenient furniture on which to manicure his little claws. , V Puppy is very lonely on his first night in his new home, as he naturally would be, being deprived of the congenial society of his kennel matesg if you don't believe it, listen to those anguished, terrified yelps issuing from back of the kitchen stove. Perhaps by midnight or later he will have exhausted his sturdy little lungs, and merciful sleep will have overtaken him, and, incidentally, yourself. Dawn brings with it another lonesome spell, and instead of sleeping an extra hour or two, you find it more profitable to get up. Arriving at the kitchen door, you are dismayed to find it scratched into a state of ruin. At your knees, rubbing a cold, black nose against you, sits the innocent-looking, brown-eyed culprit. Oh, well! A can of varnish will fix that doorg the pup is too young to appreciate wood- work. As it happens, you are to discover that not only does the puppy lack an appreciation for polished expanses of wood, but that such an appreciation cannot be drilled into his hard little head. The next innovation to be discov- ered is the kitchen broom, although it took a minute or so for your dull brain to recognize it. Although puppy was given a good supper, he evidently became hungry during the night. Oh, no! There is the rest of the broom be- hind the stoveg he must have wanted some- thing with which to amuse himself and forget his troubles. This, however, is only a beginning. If, after the first month or so of puppy's society, you haven't lost a shoe or two, had your news- papers chewed to fragments, and had numer- ous other equally pleasant experiences, your puppy isn't a puppyg it's some strange freak of young doghood. A puppy's appetite is something that can't be accounted forg he turns up a freckled little muzzle when pre- sented with a prepared dog food, but when a shoe, preferably a new one. or a rubber, can be nosed out of some dark corner, he treats it as if it were nectar and ambrosia. A greasy old bone, dug up in the back yard, where some other miser has buried it, is nauseating, par- ticularly when puppy chooses your living room rug as a banquet table. Perhaps it never occurred to you, until your little canine friend discovered it, that silk stockings are as use- ful as furniture for sharpening his clawsg unfortunately, varnish won't repair the dam- age to a stocking, but this is just another inconvenience you have to bear for the privilege of owning a pup. Yes, a dog is man's best friend-after he has graduated from puppyhood. Evelyn McMahon, IV-2. PALE MOON High above the pine-covered mountains You creep, and light the world.

Amber Bailey, I-2. thirty-one Q Uncle Bill'sIPresent ARIE Sexton could not sleep. At seventeen, one does not have in- somnia, yet she lay awake, gazing into the starless sky. Uncle Bill was leaving in the morning for the Urient, and had hinted that he might have a surprise in store for Marie and her brother jack before he sailed. Uncle Bill was very wealthy and very generous, so Marie lay awake, wondering what he would consider worthy enough to be a parting gift for his favorite niece. There was a beautiful neck- lace of amethysts and pearls that she had admired in the window of an exclusive down- town jeweler's. Imagine the envy of the other girls if she got it in time to wear with her lavender chiffon to the sorority dance! Per- haps it might be that coat with the luxurious sable collar that had haunted her dreams. Well, whatever it was, it would surely be something to display proudly before her chums. So thinking, she dozed off to sleep. At breakfast the following morning, Uncle Bill rose and beamed benignly upon his sister, her husband, and his niece and nephew. Ever since I left college, he began, I have been a traveler and adventurer. Two years ago I got tired of sleeping in Pullman cars or dirty foreign hotels, and ruining my digestion on foreign food, so I decided to be domestic for a while. I came to visit you, intending to spend about a fortnight, but your gracious hospitality was irresistible to a lonely old bachelorg I remained almost a year. A short time ago I re-read The Royal Road to Romance, and it reminded me that I was a gypsy at heart, so I have to be OE again. I know I am going to miss you, so I have bought a present for each one in hopes that they will remind you of me sometimes while I am wandering through the crooked streets of Japan or China. With this little speech, he gave a package to each one except jack, to whom he said, Yours is in the garage Song I hope you like it, but try not to wrap it around a telegraph pole the first day. With an exultant shout, Jack dashed out. Mrs. Sexton opened her package first. With a long drawn out Ooohhh! she lifted out a thirty-t'1,oo necklace of perfectly matched pearls. Fasten- ing them around her throat, she ran to the hall mirror to admire them. She was as excited as a girl and, forgetting that she was a matron with a son almost old enough to vote, she clasped both arms 'around her brother's neck and kissed his bald spot. Bill, that is the loveliest present I' ever received ! she exclaimed. Meanwhile, Mr. Sexton had opened his package. It contained a check for two thousand dollars. Adverse to any display of emotion, he simply clasped Bill's hand in gratitude. Now it was Marie's turn to open her pack- age. All eyes were fixed upon her expectantly. XVith fumbling fingers she untied the ribbon and tore off the lid. To everyone's surprise, the contents of the box was a mirror, Its back and handle were of hammered silver. It was an attractive mirror, one that might de- light a lover of old-fashioned silver, but it was of no great value. Uncle Bill watched the expressions on the faces of the family with amusement. I tried to find something pretty for you, Marie, but the prettiest thing I know of it you. I thought that by giving you a mirror, you could look at your own refiection and know that it is the loveliest thing your old Vagabond uncle has ever seen. It's-it's beautiful, Uncle Bill-I'm flat- tered that you think me so attractive. Er- thank you very much, the keenly disappointed girl replied, and, feeling that it was her duty, she kissed him. At that moment Jack burst into the room. Say, folks, I've got the keenest roadster you ever saw. It's green and black and has a cigarette lighter, and a musical horn, and- and even a radio ! he exclaimed breathlessly. Thanks heaps, Uncle Bill, you're the swellest uncle a fellow ever had, and that's the swellest present a fellow ever got. just wait till that little snob, Peggy Mason, sees me speeding along! VVill she be sorry she snubbed me ! Marie's thoughts were very bitter. Mother with her priceless pearls, Dad with his im- mense check, even Jack with his sporty roadster, everyone had received a beautiful, valuable present but her. What would her girl friends think? She felt like crying. Mut- tering some excuse, she fled to her room. After lunch she felt that she could not bear the family's incessant delight over their gifts, so she said that she was going for a walk. Why not take your mirror along and show it to your friends F Jack suggested. There was an undercurrent of sarcasm in his remark. Oh, mind your own business ! she ex- claimed crossly and fied, taking the mirror with her. Marie wandered moodily through the park and finally sat down on a bench. She gazed at the mirror in contempt, and suddenly, in fury, threw in on the grass. A studious-look- ing middle-aged man who was reading a book nearby glanced up in mild surprise. He noted the object lying in the grass, and, thinking it had fallen out of her lap, picked it up and held it out to her. She tossed her head haughtily and ignored him. He glanced at the mirror in his hand and, with increasing interest, ex- amined it more closely. Suddenly he asked her if she would sell the mirror to him. Sell it P She laughed derisively with tears in her eyes. You can have it ! He thought a moment and then sat down beside her. I see that you are not aware of it, Miss, but your mirror is very valuable. I'm not positive, of course, but I would be willing to wager that this mirror once belonged to Marie Antoinette. This aroused her interest, and she promised to let him bring her a copy of a book on some famous pieces of silver, which described in minute detail a silver hand mirror that once belonged to the wife of a king of France. A rapid investigation followed, and a famous collector offered her a large sum of money for it. Marie, however, was a romantic young girl. and when she held the mirror in her hand and thought of the beautiful queen who had also held it, and admired her powdered hair in it, she refused to part with it. Let jack have his roadsterg long after the car was in some junk pile she would have her mirror. And the nicest part of it was, her treasure became more valuable as it grew older. That night she wrote a long letter to Uncle Bill, apologizing for her ingratitude, and tell- ing him that she could think of nothing she would rather have than the mirror. Then Marie fell asleep and dreamed of another Marie, supreme in the extravagant court of Louis XIV. From the recesses of her regal gown, she drew forth a mirror and gazed into the beautiful, frivilous countenance. Ella Morgan, H-2.

Madeline M ong, I V-2. thirty-three i Buying a Hat Feminine Version PRING again! and we herald that very important festival of the church year, Easter. This aus- picious occasion in turn heralds t-215 rims! . the appearance of our new spring togs-if we are so fortunate as to have the wherewithal to purchase them. This year Easter has crept upon me with little cat feet, and it was not until yesterday that I decided that last year's bonnet just wouldn't do. For me, the selection of a hat is not a particularly delectable task and I was in none too good humor as I set out on my shopping tour in the steady downpour of an unexpected April sl1ower. At times I delight in a refreshing shower, but on this occasion the pelting of the drops on my umbrella made a very dismal sound. ' Formerly, I have discarded hats a short time after buying them because they didn't give satisfaction. I made up my mind as I entered the millin- ery shop that should my fancy so incline, I should decidedly veto the selection of a green hat. For the last few seasons green has been the predomi- nant color in my wardrobe and I am rapidly tiring of remarks made by my so-called friends about my wearing green to match my personality. Unlike the women in the story who, uponwhearing that the hat shop she fre- quented had just received a shipment of two thousand hats, pounced upon the mousy clerk and demanded to be shown them, I like to loll around and inspect the specimens at my leisure. Hats, hats, hats! a real source of pleasure when one doesn't have to choose a specific one, but the bane of our lives when we have to strike a bargain. Personally, I am partial to soft, floppy hats, not only because they become me more but because they are handier. VV'hen they're not th irty-fo-ufr in use they may be folded and tucked away- or just tucked away-without injury. The color, too, is important when one is making an economic purchase. If, like myself, one is unable to afford a hat for each individual costume, it is well to choose a hat of a pleas- ing color, and one which one won't tire of too quickly. Beige and black are the favor- ites for such constant wear. After trying on and appraising every hat which attracted my eye, I had a pretty good conception of the stock, styles, and prices of the milliner. There was every kind of hat from the cute, saucy-looking toque adorned with a pert, stiff veil, to a perfectly plain, mannish, felt fedora. Despite my bewilderment at the color- ful array, I had presence of mind enough to turn down the red one because it didn't bring out the coloring in my eyes. The blue one with the white feathers was adorable but-it wouldn't match the rest of my outfit. The white soils so easily and the black is too drab-a bad influence on my disposition, already void of sunlight. Finally, after much debate with the clerk who repeatedly said, Madame looks well in anything, and This one is most becomingf' after each trial, I made my selection and prepared to leave. Needless to say, by this time, the April shower was over, and the busy shoppers were milling in the streets again. After having gone about two blocks, I suddenly recalled having carried an umbrella, so, with a groan, I retracecl my steps and, after assuring the proprietor that the parasol really was mine, I again made my departure with my precious green hat.

It has happened, however, on too-frequent occasions that the male member of the family has been, literally speaking, dragged along to help in the selection of mi-lady's bonnet. I must confess that I can not understand the viewpoint of the fair sex in this action, unless the luckless male is expected to lend an air to the festive shock of hair in a more or less combed con- dition. I believe there was one occasion when I weakened. I was traveling with my parents, who happened to feel that it was a decided disgrace to the family to have an only child hatless. Hence a speedy visit to a hat shop was paid and I, the luckless victim ,came out in a conspicuously new-looking hat.

I wonder how many of our friends, who each Easter, Christmas, Spring, and Fall season go in search of the latest style that Paris has decreed for the particular occasion, have ever stopped to consider the fact that we have problems relating to the adequate covering for our .heads-problems which are fully as momentous as those pondered over in the selection of any Easter hat? It is my own particular problem that I wish to relate. Up to the last week I had belonged to the class who thought it the virile thing to be seen in the most inclement weather with- out any protection against the cold save a the ideal frame of mind- from the salesman's stand- point. I was walking down the street when my eye was caught by the array of hats in a shop window. Having walked down the street a block, all the while seriously consider- ing the whole matter, I resolved to come back and have one more look. It was this last look that turned the trick and I entered the store with the idea that it was to be now or never. This was an occasion that I had not experienced for so long that I was assailed with fear, wondering how one should address a clerk in a hat storey perhaps they were very sensitive and did not like to be hailed as a mere clerk in an ordinary store. I-Iowever, I thirty-five was not allowed much time to consider the proper method of attack for a clerk was com- ing from the back of a store with all the speed of a charging army. Summoning all the courage which I felt as though I had left gazing at the hats in the window, I said, Something in a hat-gray. Gray seemed to be the most inoffensive color that I could think of at the moment. While still in a semi-conscious state, there appeared as though by magic countless num- bers of dark gray, light gray, and medium gray hats with various types of brims. The clerk urged me to step over to the mirror and try some of them on. Alas, here was my Vtlaterloog though I had witnessed many of my friends put on hats, the technique was utterly strange when I became involved in the act. Determined not to appear too naive to the clerk who, I felt, must be struggling to keep the laughter back, I pulled on one feel- ing that it was the most logical way to get the whole affair Finished quickly. NVhat a sight appeared in the glass! I felt sure that I would appear like the young gentleman in the poster which formed the background of the display in the window. Surely I must have suffered under delusions of grandeur! After having tried on numberless hats till I had found one which was not too startling in its shade and which did not make me seem too much like a clown, I hastily paid the clerk and hurried out of the store with my new hat in a lovely looking box. It only I could carry the box and not be forced to wear the hat in the futureg I knew I would look less like those pictures of the Texaco Fire Chief, Ed VVynn, which seem to be the source of so much laughter. Then followed the unpleasantness of appear- ing before the parents under cover of the new purchase. VVould they know me? Much laughter was the only greeting that I received and there followed the remark, too often repeated for my comfort, that I certainly did look strange. I must frankly admit that it was a radical change. The next step was to accustom myself to the hat. After many hours of parading before the mirror in the privacy of my room I have almost determined to appear in public. No one will ever know the qualms that I shall suffer every time I shall don the new pur- chase. Or shall I become in the far distant future somewhat hardened to the sight of my- self in a hat?

It is dress rehearsal Thursday night before the Friday GA K, evening performance. I am hastily climbing the steps to the third Hoor to my dressing room. I happen to have No. 23 this time. There are three girls besides myself in our dressing room. We have every convenience, including full length mirrors, steam heat, dressing tables, and many bright lights which line the sides of the mirrors. Each girl has her own table and mirror. There are two tiers of iron racks for shoes, street clothes, eats and odd things, beneath the dress- ing tables. On the top of each table we have our own individual make-up layout. There is a long wooden rack in one end of the room on which all of our costumes are hung. For this particular show we have five costumes each, which makes twenty costumes in all. The first one we use is a nun, or convent maid costume of blue and white, the second, a Spanish Senorita costume of a brilliant red trimmed with black which, by the way, was my favorite costumeg it was a beauty 5 the third was a French casket maid costume of brightly colored stripes and great large puff sleeves and cerise bandana, the fourth was a peasant cos- tume, very plain and simple, and the fifth a seventeenth century court lady s costume with bustle and white wig foh, those contemptible white wigs !j The buzzer sounds for opening of first act. Almost instantly all the dressing room doors open and the colorfully costumed parade starts for the stage. The orchestra in the pit is playing the overture. Everyone is all antici- pation, every muscle is tense. The signal for curtain is given and the show commences. We get as far as the end of the first dance and the director decides to stop us. Our dance routine was messy and poorly done, our entrances ragged and our exits too slow. Too many girls entered from in front of the first traveler which, by the way, is the first curtain behind the red plush. Maybe Mr. Price stops us to rearrange the entire settingfwhich, many times, is the case. He may cut an entire scene or dance. I-Ie may add something. One never knows what to expect. Many times he stops the show to. correct one individual which is 1 . Ju K7 . thirty-eight extremely embarrassing. The ensemble is responsible for most of the interruptions. The principals generally know what they're doing and aren't corrected unless the dialogue is to be altered or the scene is to be changed. Between acts and scenes we usually have time to catch our breath. In this show, which happens to be Naughty Marietta, we have a reasonable amount of time for each costume change, but in the preceding we had to make one very quick change back-stage. Mr. Price tells us that if one is practised and well trained he should be able to make any change in two minutes, no matter how many pieces it in- volves. .lust to illustrate this I will cite an instance in my own case. During iiBabes in Toyland, I had to change from a peasant costume into an old English gentleman's court costume, which included a white wig. I'm telling you it was no easy job. My peasant or farmer outfit consisted of a pair of red and white, knee-length overalls, a straw hat and black tap shoes. My court costume, made of white satin and trimmed with gold braid, con- sisted of six pieces in all, which were a pair of knee-length trousers, a vest with a half-dozen strings attached to the back to tie, a long elaborate coat, a lace vestee, two large silver buckles which were fastened to by shoes, and, a white wig, a most horrid thing to try to put on in a hurry. Cnr hair had to be completely concealed beneath the wig which was one hair- pulling job. Imagine putting all this on over overalls and dancing before three tiers of glar- ing footlights which radiated a terriftic heat. Only six of us had to make this change, how- ever, Friday night only five girls got on stage in time but all were able to make the change in time for the other two performances with the aid of stage hands. . Another item deserving no slight consider- ation is the instant change of character. In th farmer outfit we danced the cakewalk and steps of similar nature and in the court cos- tume weclanced a stately and majestic minuet which called for muscle control and much rigidity. Stage work is a quite trying and nervous business at times but if you like it and enjoy every minute of it, the scolding, worrying, hurrying, and scurrying is soon forgotten. Grace Fay, IV-1. Typewriting About last December when I was filling out my registration blank for this term, I found that I had ten credits more than I actually needed. I naturally decided that I would take only three subjects this term and thus have an easy time of it. My hopes for an easy term were dashed, however, when I was in- formed by the office that the minimum num- ber of subjects I could take was four. So I went to a lot of trouble to find a course that wouldnit require any homework and in which I wouldn't have to exert my brain working out hard problems. In other words, I wanted to take a cinch course. I finally decided to take Typewriting I. A few days after signing up for Type, I learned that a special class of upper classmen was being formed and that I was in the class. The knowledge that I was in a special class elated me no little and I went around bragging of the fact to every one. I dicln't feel so elated, however, when I also learned that in the special class we were going to complete in one term the work that ordinarily takes two terms. In fact, I felt deucedly low, for I reasoned that I would have to work twice as hard as I thought I'd have to, but to me it seemed that to back out then wouldn't me a very good indication of a strong character. The Hrst time I sat down in front ,of the typewriter I was awed by the complexity of the thing. It seemed to me that it was a bunch of levers slung together and for a while I was too scared to touch anything. Instead, I gazed around the room and to my surprise I saw that most of the others in the class seemed to be perfectly at home. Some of them were already typing on scraps of paper while others were making a great show of touching certain levers which made the top part of the type- writer C which I later learned was the carriagej swing back and forth. Not to be out-done, I leaned cautiously forward and touched a small lever which, although I didn't know it then, was the carriage release. W'hen I touched the lever I was given the greatest surprise and scare in my life, for the carriage swung to the left with a large crash almost taking along with it my left hand which I had unconsciously placed upon it. I am not en- tirely over that scare yet, for I still jump whenever I touch the tabular key. My next discovery was something of a mystery to me. VVhile I was rummaging in one of the drawers of my typewriting table, I found what appeared to nie to be a 'dilapi- dated toothbrush. I looked around for a tube of toothpaste wondering if by chance I had wandered into a dental clinic. It was a good thing I kept my thoughts to myself, for the next day I learned that the brush was not used to remove the film from the typist's teeth but to remove the dirt from the face of the keys. For the next few days the teacher instructed us on the use of the various levers of the typewriter, and those were the most dangerous days I have ever had during my school life. To my pleasure -those days finally passed and we commenced to type. This wasn't any bet- ter, for my fingers seemed all thumbs. Now everyone who has had any experience with a typewriter knows that if two or more keys are struck at once they interlock like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. But instead of trying to put the keys together I tried to keep them apart. I tried in vain, however, and I spent most of the time prying apart the interlocked keys. After a few days my fingers became more limber and I found that I could hit one key at a time, sharply and firmly. Even then my dilliculties were not over, for although I usually struck the right key I would strike it at the wrong time. The letter combinations that resulted looked as if they had been made by a Chinaman typing with a Russian type- writer. Even this difficulty gradually disappeared and I began to write without many mistakes. Then came the greatest strain upon my tem- per. 'We had to type perfect copies of cer- tain exercises taken from the typewriting book. Imagine my disgust when time after time I would successfully type to the very last line of the exercise and then make a mis- take. It's a good thing that I don't use pro- fanity or the typewriting class would have been treated to more than one outburst. Everyone has his off days, typists especially. XVhen I have an off day in typewriting it seems as though I can't do anything right, Lately I have discovered that the best way to fContfimzed on page 432 thirty-nine The Pleasure of Idling ORK has ever been my policy. I have always been jndgstruqus ani , e ia? jf conscientious in sc ioo ant in a my other activities. Never would I think of coming unprepared to a classg a low mark makes me very unhappy, I have always studied hard, and get along well in school. I have never been late. Some of my friends have scoffed at me for working so hard, and asked me what use it would all be. Even if I wasn't in school, I was always busy doing something or going somewhere. Many times I regretted not having been able to indulge in a few pastimes and to be idle for awhile. For a couple of days last week, however, a great change came over me, and everyone was astonished. One evening, as an assignment for an English class, I read Stevenson's essay entitled An. Apology for Idlcrs. At one point it explains that probably many people, like Stevenson himself, looking back on their school days remember the hours of truancy with pleasure rather than with regret. These are more important in his mind than studying a science or history. He feels also that it is better to be idle in the sense of watching people, and having a little knowledge of many things than to be trained in just one subject and to condemn other people who have differ- ent ideas. After finishing the essay, I began to think of the good things I had missed by leading the strenuous life similar to the one that Theodore Roosevelt enjoyedg in his essay he explained an idea the exact opposite of the one portrayed by Robert Louis Stevenson. Roosevelt believed that hard work was neces- sary for success, and he thought that people should always be doing something useful. He felt that they should strive continually and never be idle. I pictured all the amusement that Stevenson mentioned, why just imagine! I had enjoyed very few of them. Some of the very pleasures he spoke of, such as being in the streets watch- ing people or taking a trip in the country, are delights that I have always cravedg but never had I the time to do as I pleased. There was always an assignment to complete, or a house- hold task to do. forty After pondering over the essay for about an hour, I decided to take it to heart. There was another essay in that same demoralizing book that told us how the things that we learned were of no value unless we put them into practice. I made up my mind to turn over a Stevenson leaf the very next day. Probably, I argued, it would be better for my health to be in the open air a great deal than to be cooped up working in the house. The next day I arose at the usual hour as I wanted to get as much out of the day as possible. Instead of gulping down my break-- fast and hurrying to school, I took my time and really enjoyed my toast with orange mar- malade and coffee. Instead of just hurrying to school without noticing anything around me, I strolled. In- stead of putting my mind on a coming French test, I had my eyes wide open. I noticed six pigeons on some steps busily eating a few crumbs. I stopped for a few minutes to watch them. A few houses further on I noticed a robin, the first this springg he was hopping along cocking his head from side to side, and he just seemed to be listening for the sound of a worm. I also observed two children all dressed spic and span, with shiny faces ready for schoolg they seemed happy to hustle on their ways, Roosevelt would have approved of them. VVhen I passed near the neighborhood theatre, there was a death-like silence. How different it was from the busy hum of the eveningg it seemed good, and I hesitated for a few moments to glance at the pictures. The movie, They just Had To Get Married, was the feature, and the advertisements showed that it was a sort of happy and comical picture, which fitted in with my mood perfectly. I finished my stroll to school, and on enter- ing the building, I noticed that the halls were very quiet, the last bell must have rung. But curiously, I didn't care at all. In my home- room, however, I was requested to fill out a tardy slip, and I was sent to seventh period. It made me wonder a bit. Couldn't the teacher see that I had accomplished more by strolling to school than by hastening? Evidently he couldn'tg I felt like giving him Stevenson's essay to read so he could see my point of view. My first period was an intermediate algebra class where we discussed logarithms. I was very boredg logarithms meant nothing to me. Instead of listening to the discussion, my mind was about fifteen miles away in thoughts of a future trip to the woods. I wanted to roam around that little brook with arbutus all around itg I had noticed it while driving past there last spring, and I was hankering for the chance to explore. Suddenly I heard my name called. I was greatly startled when my mind returned to room 105 and I found out that I was expected to answer something. I felt sorrier for the teacher than for myself. He thought that math was more interesting than day dreaming. Poor man! VVhat a bore he would probably be if he got into a lively group who' weren't interested in math, that was prob- ably almost all he could talk about. But then. he no doubt hadn't read Stevenson's essay and he couldn't be expected to understand. I couldn't wait until the next period which was a study hall. There, instead of bothering to find out my assignment, I finished planning my trip to the woods and started writing a story on spring, the title inspired me, and I felt in the writing mood. But the period was all too short. I was just getting warmed up, when again the gong sounded. Personally the wish to stay there was strong within meg it would have been much better than going to a typewriting class, but I had to continue on my way and pound on keys. The next two periods seemed like five hours instead of one hundred minutes. The last class was English, and our assignment for the next day was to read two essays and then analyze them. I was almost dumbfounded. It was in this class that we had read An Apology for Idlers, and our teacher had seemed to sympathize with the view point in it. What did I want to analyze essays for? Evidently even this teacher had forgotten the essay already. She was the one on whom I was counting for the sympathetic understanding which would let me write when I preferred and on what I wanted. Appar- ently, her reading doesn't really educate her. Still, there was seventh period. I thought that perhaps I would keep writing the story, but that mood had disappeared. Instead I sat there studying the countenances of the girls around me. I tried to make up a story about each one. It is surprising how much fun one can have in doing this. They were all study- ing hard, and I pitied themg how could they enjoy life in that manner? Thus the period passed. I ran to my locker and dumped all of my books into it. I wasn't going home with any books! For one evening I would be idleg not idle in the sense of doing nothing, but in reading a good book, or going for a ride. My school work would wait until the next day. This day was to be perfect, not marred by doing an assignment. I spent a delightful evening reading a good travel book, The Royal Road to Romance, by Richard Halliburton. I got more out of traveling with him than by figuring logarithms or reading French. That night, before retiring, I thought over the eventful day. Every minute not spent in class had been profitable. If I hadn't attended school, I would probably have learned more. I agreed with Stevenson. I decided, however, that since I was almost through with school, I'd better work and graduate. After that I could lead my own life. But, here I was, putting this ambition out of mind for awhile until I graduated. After graduation shall I be able to lead the kind of life I want, or, will there always be something standing in the way? .Shall I always be making compromises that will force me to lead the strenuous life? Perhaps I am one of those whose destiny is work and per- haps the lot of intelligent idling falls only to the chosen few. Ruth Lipsky, IV-2.

George Ball, III-2. forty-one JBA The Greatest Show ARNUM and Bailey owned a great lshowkg rfioreover, theji had the A75'N7 'nac o getting peope to come to the circus. They had the big- gest, the best and the largest number of anything which would draw crowds. By putting a price on sometimes worthless things, they could inveigle people into paying to see obvious frauds. It is often said that the American people like to be fooled. But there is a greater spectacle than any circus ever held under canvas, and one which does not have to be exaggerated to draw audience. Strange as kit may seem, this magnificent attraction costs absolutely nothing and will be a joy to the beholder until his sight fails and his last breath is spent. All this sounds like high-pressure salesmanship, I suppose, but I only wish all agents told as much truth about their goods. If you would like to take in this sight, go outdoors some cloudless night, tilt your head back, and gaze at the starry heavens. There above you is a sight the most won- derful and awe-inspiring ever seen by man, it is the master creation. No circus has ever boasted such an exhibit, none of Shakespeare's plays can compare with it in popularity, and it has run more nights than the total of all the movies ever produced. I doubt whether any form of night entertainment has a more de- voted following than the study of the stars and constellations. In grandeur, inspiration, and beauty nothing has equaled the Greatest Show which features 87 major characters, or constellations, and a total cast of nearly 3000 different stars which are visible to the unaided eye. But to stand and crane one's neck is no way to do the sky, so a few essentials of star gazing at this point may prevent a case of stiff neck. My advice is to pick some soft spot far away from the distracting lights and noises of the city with its closely-built houses and canyon-like streets and, with a blanket to keep the chill of night off, to stretch at full length on the ground and let the eye roam over the deep blue dome above. As is the case with any worthwhile per- formance, to appreciate fully and get the most out of't'tl1is'sojourn with nature, a person must forty-two know something about and understand what he or she is seeing, to the uninitiated the sky will seem but a meaningless arrangement of points of light, but for he who has studied it, the jeweled sky is full of meaning. A friend who has already a knowledge of the heavens is a most valuable asset, but a sky map, a Hash light, and a little perseverance is all that is required to open a most fascinating field of knowledge. Last summer I often lay wrapped in my blankets after a hard day's paddle on Adiron- dack lakes and picked out different constella- tion through the pine boughs high above me. I could almost imagine that the Lyre directly overhead was sending sweet strains of music to put me to sleep, I thought of how the same figures I was seeing were visible from number- less other places on this side of the globe: On the sea there were perhaps ships whose courses were plotted by those same far-distant suns. The folks at home could see from the porch the same beautiful constellations of Aquila, the Eagle, and Sagittarius, the Archer. To lie thus under the stars with the mighty Hercules and Perseus for guardians gave me an exhilar- ated feeling which couldn't be crushed by the realization of the magnitude of the universe and my relative unimportance. It was an experience which will remain in my mind always, and one which I shall want to repeat often. No reserved seat is necessary nor must any gate fee be paid to see these wonders of the universe. Though observatories might be con- sidered as box seats and are fun to occupy once in a while, if I want to, I can call my own backyard a front seat and can make it more comfortable than many theatre seats I have occupied. The study of the heavens can obviously be- come a very deep and complex subject. But the study of the constellations, the groups of stars which have been given names, is some- thing which everyone can enjoy. Since the stars are not uniformly scattered, it was natural for the ancients to take them in their natural groupings and give them names, often times very fanciful, such as the Scorpion, the Twins, the Dragon, the Hunter. Although in most cases the outlines formed bear no re- semblance to the animal or object named, there are some exceptions, such as the Northern Crown, which is a semicircle of stars. The Indians called this a camp circle, and it is not difficult to imagine that the indi- vidual stars are warriors seated around a camp fire. The Big Dipper constitutes another ex- ception. This, and perhaps the stars forming Orion's belt, are most widely known and recog- nized, but how many know the dagger that hangs from Orion's Belt? It is a much more potent article. An evening under the high vaulted heavens is good tonic for any trouble. There you will find faithful friends and good companions who will travel with you around the world if you take the time to make their acquaintance. There you will find sympathetic listeners to whom you can pour out your troubled soul with the assurance that no secrets will be told and inner peace and composure will be yours from the experience. Stanley Gutelius, IV-2. 'k LIFE The sea so wide, so deep, Under whose mighty 'waves Many a ship has sunk, Whose very banners waved But victory the day before. So man goes down beneath the 'waves of time, Yet never dies, Because upon the page of history He leaves for all eternity, A record fraught, With victory or defeat. Elizabeth Willrner, I-2. Typewriting A IContinned from page 39j spend my type period on off days is to try to work out strange figures with certain letter combinations. One of the best I can do so far is the one of the soldiers. By using an apostrophe for a hat, the small o for the head, the zero for the body, the quotation marks for the legs and the diagonal line for a gun, one can make a fair representation of a soldier presenting arms. If a whole row of them is made they look very militaristic. I remember the first day I made the soldiers. It was a very bad off-day for me. There was one exercise which I couldn't type without making a mistake. After trying it over so many times that I knew it by heart, I gave it up and started to make the soldiers. lt happened that Mr. Burt decided to visit our class that day. I was busily engaged typing a line of soldiers when I noticed someone standing at my side. I looked up. It was Mr. Burt. My heart dropped down into my shoes before I saw that he wasn't looking at me, but at the typist on the other side of me. The way I snatched that paper from the type- writer couldn't have been done faster by Sir Malcolm Campbell. In spite of all these difficulties I like type- writing but there is one person that I don't envy. That's the typewriting teacher. After listening to the clatter of the typewriters tive days a week and answering all the dumb ques- tions that students, like me, ask, it's a wonder the teacher doesn't have a nervous breakdown. So in spite of all the difficulties I have gone through in typewriting, I am glad I'm only a beginner. Edward Nellis, IV-Z.

A sharp report rang out through the darkness ..... black as the dark- est night. The labored breathing and mutter- ings of one of the men cut the silence. Charlie, tired and haggard-looking, crawled to his feet and gropingly felt his way in the all-too-apparent wetness that attended such occasions. He reached over to his buddy and touched him apprehensievly on the arm. Can you reach it, Jack old boy ? A fleet- ing light rested on the shiny, ominous metal of their world-familiar utensils. Pray, Charlie, pray! called the man hoarsely. Just a few more inches. Silence once more ..... As Charlie moved. the swish, swish of the moisture measured his tread. Round and round he went gazing fear- fully upward. Suddenly there was a burst of light. E Two simultaneous gasps of delight came f rom two throats. Good for you, jack! I was kinda worried for a minute. Now that the lights are on we can see to fix that leak in the water pipe. Right, replied jack looking down from his perch before the electric light fuse box. Run up and ask Mrs. Smith if thexliving- room lights are on now. We'll have to hurry with that leak in the pipe 'cause Molly's having spaghetti tonight. When those lights went out I was Fit to cry 'cause I thought we'd never be through and Molly says next time I come in late from a plumbing job Illl find the dog eating my spaghetti.

There are those who are Q56 ,ta in . filled with a light exuberance when i I 'N first the blossoms bud and the sun shines brilliantly after a dreary winter. There are those who feel the call to wander- anywhere in this wide world. There are those romanticists who feel the urge to write in flowing poetic words. But when first I feel the cool wind ruffie my hair and the sun smile down on me, I am filled with memories of other happy days replete with laughter and the joy of living. One time in particular I remember as vividly as if it had occurred only yesterday. It was a beautiful, clear dayg the sun took the nip out of the breeze. VVith a group of close friends I drove out of the laboring city to enjoy a day in the open. Not to one of the public parks where tired women carry crying babes and overworked men loll on the grass which is strewn with rubbish and debris. Not a public picnic ground but a secluded, unfrequentecl spot with the alluring name of Chimney Bluffs was the scene of our little outing. A two-hours' drive-and there before us was the rocky shore of a lake. Above us rose a high hill and after a steep climb we reached the crest and laughingly extended a hand to our comrades below. The wind was brisk but the sun shone lustrously on a glorious scene. Cliff after cliff rose before our eyes, great pinnacles with deep valleys dividing them and in the background the bluish-green waters of the lake stretched to meet the paler blue of the sky. A narrow trail led us along the main- landg first fiowers nodded their heads in greet- ingg the branches of the trees bent low to em- brace us. And always below us lay the lake and cliffs. VVe stood high above-yet we were almost infinitesimal compared with the majesty surrounding us. If time were measured by the beauty one has witnessed, then I lived a lifetime that day. And all I need to send me into a glory of memory is such a day-a cool breeze and a brilliant sun-and I again relive that day filled with laughter and the joy of living for Chimney Bluffs is spring to me. Nellie Sauer, III-1. Blufling Bluffing isn't an ordinary procedure as most people thinkg it is an art that requires scien- tific thought. The more you practice it the better you becomeg by that I mean practicing it on different people. If you have mastered the art, you will have to do your homework only about once or twice a weekg but if not, you had better do it all the time, V ' If you didn't study your French lesson and the teacher calls on you for a translation don't tell her that you didn't studyg start to trans- late and when you get to a word you don't know just say that you forgot what it means. Now is the test of your ability as a bluffer to keep a straight face and look intelligent. If you do, the teacher won't suspect anything, and before realizing it she has translated most of the French for you. XVhen the history teacher asks the class a question and you have gone out the night before, neglecting your homework, look as if you were thinking, then suddenly appear intelligent. but be sure you are the ninth or tenth person to do so and put up your hand. Chances are that you won't be called on, but if you are simply state that you forgot what you were going to say. In algebra you have to be a little more experienced. Raise your hand in answer to a problem, but not firstg if you are not called on, all rightg if you are called on, make up an answer far from rightg then if the teacher asks for an explanation, ask what page it was on and then say that you were on the wrong page. - Homework isn't the only thing that you can bluffg when you have become adept at this, try it out in music, business, and poker.
