' I ' liis rl.,rs iK.t imply thai I- resliiiu 11 are infants, or that Seniors are the last word in maturilv and so| histica- liiiii. Ol ' teii, quite tile contrary is the case. If college is the place for one to grow up, it would lie interesting to study the situation in that light, to sec in what one wants to grow, if the conditions at college are conducive to growth, and to find if one is actually growing up. What, then, are some of the things that people grow into during college days? First, a hroadcr outlook on life, the aliility to see a hroad expanse of the world at one view. The small lioy with a cheap but relatively powerful telescope ]daced at one eye can sec clearly a small porlidii ol the distant mciunlain; a pair of modern liinoculars will hring into ision the entire niiuiiitainsi le. So the educated mind may liecoiiie the lenses ami lirisms of the liinocu- lars to the individual, and enalile him to emisage humanity, to integrate the ex|icrirnces of mankind, to gras)) the unity of Truth. Here is found the basis of a rcasonalile tolerance. . s corallaries of this princijile of the breadth of vision of the educated person, one should mention an aniuiated intellectual curiosity and a discriminating sense of alues. The one is necessary to continued growth, the other, to happiness and usefulness. . capacity for hard work constitutes another goal of growth, for long-continued, con- sistent, hard work. This feature distinguishes the real college man or woman. It is recog- nized today as one of the characteristics rendering colle,ge men and wemicn jiarticnlarly de- sirable for positions of trust in the great organizations. A sense of the dignity and worth of man, coupled with a true setise of humility in the presence of Truth, represents another goal in education. One ' s ability to sense, to discover, to grasp, to know truth, suggests one ' s kinship with the Infinite. Therefore, the cry concept of the Infinite lirings humility to the reverent mind. ()bser ing another characteristic of educated people, one would see as a goal, the allain- iii.5 lo inlellerlnal imlependc nrc. Not intellectual egoti.sni or snobbishness, not that manifes- l.itioii of fancied iiilelleelnal superiority sometiincs known as high-brovvisin, which often appears as an indication that a certain person has been educated beyond his intelligence; luit rather that degree of poise and self-reliance, that sense of security which comes Irom sane activities based ujion the certainties of sound intellectual processes. Finally, a firm religious faith is indicated as an essential attainment in tin- growth of the modern college person. This might be called the necessary imiilication of the other things that have been mentitMied. A real breadth of vision, and a true sense of values, must lead one to recognize the spiritual content of life and to evaluate life in terms of the spiritual. Is the atmosphere at Mary Baldwin such as to encourage growth into these ideals? Do traditions, customs, ideals, college spirit, work lo this end? Is the College endeavoring to build U]ion the basis of principles rather than upon the basis of personalities? Do you be- lie r thai the College will lead students into a broader outlook on life, into a capacity for bard work, into a sense of dignity, self-resiHCt, and self-reliance, with huniilil ' ; into an attitude eif intellectual independence colored with the spirit of tolerance, into a stronger religious faith ? If you 1ielie e these things lo be true, then Io e and support your (. illegc. If in an ' jiarticular. they are not true, help us to build ihem into the colle.ge life and ideals; help us to project these visions of nobility and attainment into the life of the College and into the lives of our students this year, and of the large group that will be coming to us as Freshmen next September. The earnest desire of the College and of the President is that each of you may grow ' into that abundant life for which Mary Baldwin stands, and that you may help guide others into that life. — L.

Not to the stirring music of the mart. Nor to the ancient Orphic melody. From high Olympus sprung, But to the beating of the human heart. Be this our measure, sung. O, woman with the crowned brow. What chaplct shalt thou wear? Shall we From our low earthly shrine. Bring ivy, or the laurel-tree For brow of thine? For other laurels wearest thou Than those w e twine. 1 see her now! Frayer on her lips doth move: Children arc at her feet; she seems to rise More womanly than woman, with the love Which is her woman ' s glory, in her eyes, iid on her brow faith, like an aureole. In the world ' s heart, held dearly as its soul: Held tenderly, as any mother holds Her year-old baby, white with ruddy lips. On which the first sweet utterance tn| s; Or as a wee bird, which the hands eiilold, (Irimy and small, that found it in the grass, nd half afraid to hold so strange a thing. Lest haply (world ' s delight) the bird should smg. Oh as we treasure ringlets, ringlets which the years Have dulled, or letters full of tears. So the world holds all reverently apart The flower of perfect girlhood in its heart ; . n with such care and beauty and delight. She held the flower of girlhood on her breast ; She turned the face of girlhood to the light, That so the sun might ripen fruitage blest . nd by the growth of something wise and good, i ' ersuade the world of perfect womanhood. As mute as yon bird, by the window-sill (, golden roundelay, and all is still), So ends her life ' s unbroken harmony 111 Millness and the rest for which men long; So to hir life .shall death ' s pure radiance lie The dew of silence, in the flower of song. — VlRGlNl.

RlUULL Miss ViKMNiA Maki.aijki Siiulm.lk History of Mary bdldiuin College HNSTITL ' TIONS of learning differ not so essentially in their huiidings or en- dowments, in their physical equipment or courses of study, as in the men and women who have shaped their character and determined their spirit, w ho have moulded their inner life. They are rich and great only as great personalities have lived within their walls and have influenced and guided the young lives that have touched their own. In the historic little city of .Staunton guarded hy the noble mountains that flank the .Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, stands Mary I aldwin College, an insti- tution around which for well nigh a century have gathered some of the richest social and cultural traditions of Virginia and the old .South, and whose history from its foundation has been linked with the high intellectual and spiritual ideals of the Southern Presbyterian Church. As Augusta Female Seminary it was established in 1842 by a consecrated Presbyterian minister, Rev. Rufus r ailey. who to quote the tribute of a bi- ographer, was a man of superior ability who could not have resided anywhere without being felt as a power in the community. Supported by a group of Pres- byterian ministers and laymen, he opened the Seminary with the avowed purpose 38 .

In 1843 the lirst permanent huilding was ereeted on a liil lielongin.t; Id tlie Presbyterian Church, with a guarantee from the ehnrcli trustees that the seminary should have possession in perpetuity of the said hnildinj;. provided always that the institution l)e directed by a board of which three-fourths should be ministers or members of the Old School Presbyterian Churcli. In 1849, after seven years of valued service, Mr. P ailey resigned his connection with the seminary to become agent for the American Colonization Society, llis portrait hangs today in the |)arlor of Mary ISaldwin College. Fourteen checjuered ears followed his administration. Rev. William (I. Campbell, Rev. W. P . Provvne, Mr. W. H. Marquiss, Mr. J. P . Tinslcy, in turn assimied control of the school, with varying degrees of success. In 1863 Miss Mary Julia Paldwin was elected principal, with Miss Agnes McClung as her as- sistant. Grim-visaged war then stalked through the beautiful valley ; its encircling hills echoed to the tramp of marching armies; want and danger often threatened the very existence of the school. But with a courage which was a heritage from Revolutionary forbears and unswerving faith in an Almighty God, thev braved the dangers and met the difificulties of those tragic years. In 1880 Miss McClung died, and Miss Baldwin became the sole head of the school. It was given her to 39 . x A CJrAiNi ()iii ' ii;u (ii M m I ' .aliiwix Skmi l; ■ sec it grow grealK ' in pi ' csligc and in puwcv. ami in lS ' ' .i. h ' an act i)t llic ir- ginia Legislature, it was named in lier iinndr, .Mary I ' .aldw in Seminary. Miss r.aldw in was a pioneer in the liel i of wnmaii ' s edueation. (uuraf r. Iiinad vision, deep sipiritualilw passion for service — these were the dominant elements in her character, combined vvitii a warm, sympathetic faitli in young womanhood and its ideals, and an eager yearning to provide for the girls of her day academic opportunities as high as those which colleges were offering to their brothers. On her death in 1897 her will gave expression to her aspirations for the school and to her confidence in the Church which she had loved and served. As early as 1873, what had been an indefinite relation with the First Pres- byterian Church, of Staunton, had become a distinct and official affiliation. The Presbyterian congregation, having grown too large for its house of worship, built a larger church on a lot purchased and donated for the purpose by Misses McClung and Baldwin. In return, the old church building w as given over to the seminary. Instead of a deed of trust, Miss Baldwin accepted a long lease of the property, free of rent, and the trustees of the congregation transferred the title to the seminary board, witln the provision that a majority of that board should always be members of the church making the deed. To meet the growing needs of the school, Miss Baldwin acquired and erected other buildings on land she purchased at the rear of the original plant. These, with her other real estate and most of her personal property, she left to the same self-perpetuating board that controlled the structure leased from the church, with the evident desire to linU her 40 Mahv Daluwi.x Se.mi.nakv ix Eaklv V. life and its achievement with tlie church to which she belonged, and through it to pniji ' it tier inllucnce into tin- lives nf futiu-e generations of women. I ' .arly in Miss Baldwin ' s administration she hrnuglit into the school as her business manager, Mr. W. W. King, and from that day until now his name has been enshrined in the hearts of Mary Baldwin girls. Not only by his able adminis- tration of the finances of the institution, but by his devoted adherence to its finest traditions and his happy comradeship with its students, he has built himself into its life and has become inseparably associated with its expanding developments. Miss Ella Claire Weimar, who since 1889 had been assistant principal, in 1897 succeeded Miss Baldwin as principal of the seminary. In this office she gave to the school nineteen years of loyal and sellless service, made distinct and far- reaching contributions to its academic growth, and left the abiding impress of her sincere and earnest nature on many young lives entrusted to her care. During Miss Weimar ' s regime there was a period of great physical expansion at Mary Baldwin, and the institution was officially accredited as a junior college. In the re-organization and correlation of its curriculum to comply with the stand- ards of the State r oard she was ably assisted by one of her faculty. Miss Marianna I ' . Higgins. On the resignation of Miss Weimar in 1916 Miss Higgins succeeded her as principal of Mary Baldwin Seminary, . ' he is a woman of distinguished presence, charming personality, fine administrative gifts, and the highest ideals of scholar- ship and character. — Nancy W. Mer ' AKLAM). Q ' he office of Miss Mary Julia baldiuin 32 TH I ' , oltue at prcst ' iit (iccufiifd by Miss Ilij gins lias al a s been the center of activity. In Miss I ' aldwin ' s day tlie five offices we liave now were all in one. iVot all of the present bniidiniL;s were in existence at that time. The functions of y cadeniic Hall were carried on in Main and other houses. Since most of the present ofifice space was then used for either dormitory or academic purposes, the administrative work out of necessity had to be centralized. Augu.sta Female Seminary was built up and made by Miss Baldwin, so all the business during her life passed through her hands. She was sole director of tlie institution, assi.sted by Miss Weimar and Mr. King. As the school grew and expanded, a larger executive force was needed and more room was vital for the carrying out of new functions. The old library was changed into a business oftice w ith Mr. King as manager. This year three new offices have been opened, that of the [)resident, the dean of wf)men, and the alumna secretar}-. The furnishings in Miss Baldwin ' s office are still in evidence today. The safe, the swivel chair, the secretary ' s desk and two large pictures are now a part of the equipment of the business office. Miss Weimar ' s desk was transferred to the Bible class room. Miss I ' aldwin ' s large table was moved out. The chairs are at present scattered throughout the college. The old rocker now occupies Miss Meyer ' s room. Even the knick-knacks are still seen. The old wooden mortar and pestle which was sent directl)- to Miss Baldwin from Japan is now to be noticed on the mantel in T ' resident Jarman ' s office. Mary Baldwin, like its office, has grown and e.xpanded. et its old traditions. like its old furniture, have lived and grown richer and more valuable with the years. 42 ' 5 Qlimpses of the Past ' ANY of the alumiis will gaze upon Ihese familiar landmarks w itli happy reminiscences and associations. To those students who have come to Mary Ilaldwin since the days of Miss Mary Julia Baldwin these figures are likewise familiar through story and legend. Miss Baldwin was beloved by all the servants. Uncle Chess was the school mail carrier. His admiration for Miss Baldwin was shown by this little incident: One day Miss Baldwin wanted some- thing from the drug store. Slie sent Uncle Chess on the errand. She wrote the order Inirriedly. In order that no mistake would be made, Uncle Chess was sent back lo Miss Baldwin with the note. His pride in his mistress w ' ould not allow him to admit anything was wrong, so he said, Miss Mary Julia, there warn ' t none o ' um nigh learnt enough to read it. Another familiar figure of those old days was Mr. Thompson, the night watchman. He always carried a lantern in making his rounds at night. He even carried a pistol in his coat pocket, and when he saw any trespasser on the grounds he would call out, Wait, my friend, until 1 shoot you. Miss Baldwin loved pets. Bruno, a very large dog, was her particular pet. Her parrot displayed some degree of intelligence at times, and deserved to live in such an institution as Augusta Female Seminary. If, b ' chance, his mistress forgot to feed him, the parrot would trip down the stejis to the dining room and percli upon the back of Miss Baldwin ' s chair until lie was fed. 43 - : lit X ' Ml.MllUIAl. W IXIKIVV 44 t Jf, ULiss bdldu7m ' s Codl of Arms HF YOU will examine the beautiful Memorial Window in the Mary Baldwin Chapel, you will see a strange device which is very dear to all of us at Mary IJalilwin. This historic window was dedicated to the memory of Miss I ' aldwin by the Alumna;, who in this way sou.i hl to perpetuate their devotion, adniir.ilion, and reverence for the distinguished woman whose stately monument is built on the hillside here in Staunton. Prior to the dedication of this window in 1901, Mrs. Nellie llotchkiss Holmes, an honored and beloved member of the . lumn;e. now of Charleston, South Carolina, wrote a most interesting sketch of Augusta Female Seminary, and Mrs. Holmes in a recent letter speaks of the great pleasure she experiencd in studying the annals of English heraldry in reference to the Baldwin Coat-of-Arms. In the Baldwin Genealogy from 1500 to 1881 by Charles Candee Baldwin we find the following description : The Arms of Sir John Baldwin appear, in Dug- dale ' s ' Origines Juridicales ' as thrge oak leaves slipped in pairs. In Lipscomb, they are given as three oak leaves slipped, acorned proper (natural color). These Arms appear, unacorned in the Middle Temple, as Arms of Richard Baldwin ; and upon the tomb of Samuel Baldwin, in St. Leonard ' s. The following is a descrip- tion of the Arms as found in .St. Leonard ' s Chapel : Three oak leaves slipped, unacorned, with it is the usual crest of the Baldwins of that vicinity, ' a squirrel sejant, ' or a squirrel sitting, colored in gold. It is generally or always represented as holding a ' sprig of hazel, ' or oak, sometimes acorned or unacorned. The Arms granted in 1662 to Edward Baldwin, of Wilton, are described as ' argent a chevron ermine, between three oak branches proper. ' The same Arms are used by the Baldwins of County Cork, Irelantl, who emigrated there contemporary to Uueen Elizabeth, and who probably came from County F ' ucks, The use of Miss Baldwin ' s coat-of-arms is a priceless heritage to the honored school which bears her name. Her descent from William the Conqueror, Alfred the Great, Charlemagne, and others, brought to her a noble strain, and it also brought responsibility to perform deeds of valor of a different nature, but which have left a lasting impress upon the thousands of young women whose characters have been molded by her influence. This device, which by some has been inter- preted to mean that the squirrel represents industry and that the oak leaves sym- bolize strength, is an emblem held sacred by the school. Even a glimpse of the white and gold shield used for so many fruitful years on the Mary Baldwin Setninary catalogue, and now in black on the plain gray Mary Baldwin College catalogue, on the invitations, on the stationery, and in many, many ways to gratify the taste and whims of young college students, will arouse a feeling of reverence and affection from thousands of girls. We trust that this sacred heritage may be guarded and always used to arouse a desire to accomplish deeds of valor and thus to emulate the example of the noble woni;m whose life was a benediction and whose memory is honored and revered. — Marianna p.

Wr ha c tho cherricst i)t1icc and the gayest ol ' tice fcirce you can imagine — two alunuue and our tiles. These files are a real part of the olVicc force because they are alixc. and form the great link between the alumna; and our Alma Alater. Our ofiice, so accessible for alumna;, faculty and students, has many visitors, and the ollicc force already feels itself very much a part of the College. We, as an association and as individuals, are eager that the Ijond between the students and alumnx be a steadily growing one, because our old girls, 5800 strong, see themselves re-incarnated in you. Today you are tumbling down the covered way for breakfast — you are chatting with Mr. King — you are loafing on the Back Gallery — you are digging at Horace and Livy — and doing all the other dilTicult and charming things we used to do. It is you who are even now building yourselves into the traditions and making the history of our Alma Mater. You have a rich heritage — a background of years of service to young American woman- hcjod rendered by a long line of splendid teachers — a background of ideals moulded by the lives of illustrious leaders — a background of charm and graciousness built up by the culture and Ineeding of gentle women. You are doing your part to aid in the building of your college and have that loyalty and pride that all true daughters have in their Alma Mater. During your sojourn in her halls you are giving and getting — receiving from her in proportion as you are giving yourself to her, and because of this giving and getting today there will always exist a nuitual loyalty and responsibility. Soon you will be going from her doors to carry into a new life the spirit and influence of Afary Baldwin. As you are building your own lives, remeinber that your college is also building the rich maturity of her life, and will need you in the days to come as she is need- ing you today. May this be a eovenant and a jirouiise between us — students and alinnnse. ?

I hear the echo of your tripping feet, yKs on the terrace there we used to meet In the soft dusk! In happy laughing i airs. We walked and talked and dreamed — and knew no care; Upon the terrace there ahove the street ! Ah, yes! we wandered there and talketl and dreamed — A radiant wonder there the future seemed ! We planned what we should do when school was done. And turned to life, as flowers to the sun ! How slow time seemed to our impatient feet That trod the ten-ace there above the street! Oh, comrades in the dusk of memor -. Where are you now? has life been good to you Or death? Have all your girlish dreams come true? ( )n gay young faces that come back to me, What lines are written now, if one could see? And is the laughter hushed that once T knew ? Ah, do you see it there in memory, too, The terrace where we walked so happily? And those gay feet that w alked it once, dream-shod. What paths of care and trouble have they trod? How bruised upon the stones of life ' s rough ways, Dear young companions of golden days? Across the years, I send a song to greet You on the terrace there above the street !

But the biggest thing in college is to be neces- sary to the whole organization, and Manie holds a very vital place in Mary Baldwin. The class found that it needed her in athletics, and the college felt it needed her for president of the Athletic Association. In this office Manie has given such valuable service to the Association that we are not able to picture the athletic field witliotit seeing Manie in action. 68 m. ) it MARY EIM:iAK llEnCAK)) Upper Montclaik, New Jersey Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Dcyrcc Y.

She has the ability of developing all sides of her personalit - at once, for while others are buzzing with worry over their college career, she goes quietly on sewing, studying and enjoying her life to the fullest.

Tin- most dependable girl of 1929 is the most reliable girl of 193U. No duty could overtask her. No need her will outrun, Or ever our lips could ask her. Her hands the work had done. Libby is one of the very few people who can accomplish much quietly and anonymously. Both idealistic and practical, a leader yet co-operative, she stands high in every one ' s estimation. Student Government is stronger because of her vice-presidency. 77 - ' 7 KI.IZAIIETH WOODS TsiNG KiANG Pu, China Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree Y. W. C. A. •2()--,«), Y. W. C. A.

No name coitlrl better lit this smallest member of the class of ' 30 than Liberty. Lib thinks her own tiioughts, and holds her o mi beliefs with con- viction and yet with openmindedness. .Vnd though she is independent she is absolutely co-operative. Honor and idealism and spirit are very vital to Liberty, and she makes them real to others. Here is a well-rounded character, developed on every side. Though it seems a paradox, Liberty is big. 78 ' ' m M Senior ITlemory book BREATHLESS (|iiiot |itrv;ukil the cIlisshmhii ana an cliservi-r vvmild have iioticeil an odd, whimsical, half-sad cxprcssicin on the faces iif the tvventy-nnc who occii|iie l tin- semi-circle of chairs. In the midst of that stillness the page of a hook was slowly turned as the I ' resident of the Class of 1930 pressed int|i place a list of the ear ' s graduates. .As her hand rested on the volume, which we knew to he the class niemor hook, the deep amethyst of her class ring glistened in the sunlight. That was indeed a liond of union and the seal on its side acc irded with the feelings of the class in these moments. Soon they would leave their College marked with its ideals, Not for time, Imt eternity. Before this memory hook he closed forever, we would turn hack its leaves for a last glimpse. September 1926, forty-three strong they invaded the school. That group on the rocker is indeed a crowd, and as yet we do not distinguish individualities. Soon they gain confi- dence, and the invitation so neatly pasted on this page is to a tea given hy these Ireshmen to their faculty. A memory book within a memory book appears with this in itation for. in Iiantomime, they showed their professors the freshie ' s scrap-book. One lone candle graces this next page, but as they look ahead the class sees Dean Higgins li.ghting a new one each year until the four lilaze out in triumph at the final birthday party — Alice in Wonderlaiul ' s treat. That first little gleam trembles, but burns on, and the class decides esse qitaiii I ' idcri (to be rather than to seem). Now organized and resolved, they forge their red aiul gold banner, an enlargement of this book ' s treasured miniature, into a firm i)lace in college his- tory, guided by their sponsor. Miss Mildred Campbell ( Frs. Cyril Broome). I ' rograms ap- pear on the turned page, and Fascinating Fannie Brown, The Elopment of Ellen, Mr. Bob, and Nothing But the Truth arc acted again in memory, recalling the marked dramatic talent of the class. This portrait facing us shows a true friend, 1 )r. A. . 1. Eraser, president of the college and pastor of the college church. A train schedule, beginning the page dedicated to a new school year, is an ctTective bridge into sophomore rank and old-girl privileges. Thoroughly at home, they are soon welded into an indissoluble class. Another page is turned and on opposite sides we meet the nize liebe and the growing-up of Caiiil ' us Coiiimciils in 1927 and 1930. Both bear the editorshij) and contributory workmanshii) of members of this illustrious class. The same class features in the Miscellany, giving the magazine an editor in 1928- ' 30. The same year it bestows its blessing and fifty dollars on the beloved Blukstockinc. These are cold biU smiling counte- nances looking out from this group of snaps taken at Natural Bridge, and to distinguish — the wisest looking are the Seniors of ' 28! The sister sophomores jiroved good entertainers. They are upper classmen and with a real thrill of accomplishment the Juniors begin work on the inherited Annual. The final product is well-worthy of the class. The next pages are dedicated to the Y. W. C. A., a most vital part of school life, recruiting many workers from this class. Who needs pictorial reminders of those delightful teas and the crowning event of the year — the Junior- Senior banquet? These are class-day pictures. Amid the beauty of the terraced court and the enclosing liuildings the Seminary participates for the last time. Juniors in attendants ' costumes are prominent in the ceremonies. Seniors! Among the joys which accompany this distinction appear new guides. These portraits before us are of Ur. Jarman, who assumes the position of President, and of Miss Pfohl, Dean of Women. Both soon win secure places in every heart. Under their guidance Student Government is launched and the Seniors contribute the President and si.x council members. Witness the hand-book here placed in tribute to the success of this new venture ! A bridal ribbon — what place can it have in the Seniors ' memory book? It marks the mar- riage of their sponsor and the beginning of the equally successful regime of Miss Abbie McFarland as class adviser. The class has more and more get-togethers, which are but sad reminders that gradu- ation is drawing nigh. Senior Sings have become traditional, and this copy of the class song is indispensable to their treasured possessions. These pages of class teams are mute evidence of the good-fellowship and co-operative spirit in outside activities. Seniin- Day, Alumnffi Day, and Graduation now are here — soon are to be liut memories. What a host of reminders are on these last pages — reminders that we can no longer remaiTi in this College built of dreams ! The semi-circle is again silent, and the same hand seals this memory book with the great gold College seal. A soft whisper echoes, Oh, Mary Baldwin, can we say farewell? 79 Constancy The cherry hldssoin ])clals drift idiiij lil ; S(fflly thi- maple ' s pak- i vn dress slips uverlu-ad, And spring uindlls her iiiat ic carpel hrinht l ' i)r stray iiKidiilieanis lu pattern as they dance. .Ml day the mists were i atherini; (jn the hills, And now from out the silver veil the shadows ciee]) To laufjh upon the campus now so still, And licjhtlv dimh familiar steps again. Where llill Top ' s columns make dark shadows on the j rass A ghost from Godey ' s book sits down t j rest. I ' or she has come across years long and vast To smile this night and lind sweet Vdulh and sjiring. The moon looks close u|ion the old sun dial Where bending low to catch once more the golden hom ' s, A slender ghost clad in the hour glass style Awaits her Cfimrades on the terrace still. A (iibson girl with racket lightly poised Stands in the stippled shadows on the tennis court. Hearing again her partner ' s laughing voice. She thinks of .all those joyous yesterdays. Two old bron e dogs w ith condescending mien Look down upon a little ghost who puzzles long Over a map, where pins denote the line Of armies far beyond these peaceful walls. So with the Spring they all come back again. Each blossom bears the love of one long gone before. Thus does the love for Mary Baldwin still remain Fresh, fragrant, fair thru all eternitv. And now we leave the tall white columns and the terrace green. We may not see that mountain line with ajiple bloom again ; But when the maple ' s soft green dress slips overhead. We, too, shall keep the tryst and laugh and sing. -f J 1. - 80 v 1 1 : L The Junior Class MOTTO I irlns iiiilia scuta COLORS FLOWER White and Green I.il of the ' ;illfy OFFICERS Agnes Junkin Prcsiilriil Nellie Werner irr-t ' rfs ' uicnl Elizabeth Fields S ' l-crrhiry Anna Parker Trrasiirrr M iss PIia.EN r.oATFiia.D Ftiiiill V .

Wasn ' t there a hike at the liefjinning ill the Bald-a ' in Brevities. Oh, yes, the Freshmen seenu-d a little liliie, f.ii to cheer them up we took a little hike around Ciypsy Hill Park. Quite a reminder of the zoo — feeding the hear and the swans. We took some pictures for the Bi.iiKSToCKiNd snapshot contest. Quite warm for Septemhcr — especially after hiking -ironnd the goif course — so we were more than ready for cake and punch on our return, Then the next hi.g thing was the Senior linestiture Service. When was that ? Octohcr 4th, the hrst linn in llie history of the schocd that the Seniors have heen in- vested with caps and gowns. W C, their sister class, were very proud to attend them as pages. Isn ' t it ciistoniar.v for the Sophomores to entertain the Seniors in the late fall? Yes, this year, after talking the matter over we decided that Charlottesville with Monti- cello was our hest bet. We piled into buses one Saturday afternoon in October and enjoyed every minute of the ride over the mountain, gorgeous in its auturnn dress. .After visiting Monticello we returned to Charlottesville for tea at the Monticello Hotel. On the way home we stopped for a little while at the University, visiting various points of interest. It w as a beautiful moonlight night, and the ride home passed fpiickly with songs and conversation. Who is the Sojihomore class adviser? Miss Foust, and one . ' -iafurday in November she Ka e us an ' alfresco ' breakfast at the college orchard, and we all ha. I a big time, . fter the breakfast we all turned ipuI for hockey practice at the field. How did your hockey games come out? Well — the Sophomores had rather tou,gh luck, the Seniors defeated us in the first game of the series. However, it was our sister class, so wc tried to take our defeat like good sports, hoping for liettcr luck in basketball. I understand that Brr-r-rrrr—r !.!.!. !.!.!. Crack!.!. Hello — hello! Are you there? What happened? Cut off, I think — quite a break — must have been Christmas vacation. I imagine that when you returned, there were few activities? Yes — prospects of exams, quieted even the most exuberant spirits. Notices for basket- ball inacticc soon went up, creating quite a divergence from studies. W ' c went up against the Freshmen and came out with a score of 32-5. Then the Juniors were met and thrust aside — but not without a struggle, 17-11. A close game and a good one, but we were left victors on the field. At this game for the first time we displayed our class banner — Yellow and White of our Alma Mater interwoven with our own purple and gold. Has the class presented a play? Yes, wc presented Lady Windcrman ' s Fan on the 28th of March — our first attempt at any such production and an opportunity to display our ability. We were all surprised and pleased at the latent talent in the class. Both the play and the Sophomore Sweet Shop were very successful. ■ Thus the curtain was rung down on a successful Sophomore vear. The only thing left to do is to shift the tassels on our mortar boards, and then at last we will be UI ' PF.R- CLASSMEN ! 104 1 The Freshman Class MOTTO COLORS Sidera Ferimus I-avL-mler and White OFFICERS Wanda Lef.

The teacher looked up when addressed. And answered with thought the question profound, .She is wisest whose gift is the best. And the maiden whose gift is to pl;iy or to sing Is truly a giver; she can Exalt us or calm us or set us on tire ; She speaks to the heart of a man.

As years passed the annual has taken on a formality and dignity as befitted a college. The book became an orderly rec- ord instead of a memory book.

I ' or the memories woidd be those of long ago — of that lime when Kentucky sunshine made a summer afternoon in the garden a golden age peopled hy rose and white porcelain lieings. There is a wistful longing aliont such memories. No one cares to hear them now and they, like silver haired old maids hate to he forgotten. So why not let the ghost of that childhood kecj) tryst with the ghosts of the garden? What does it matter if .sentiment and romance spill themselves on the i)agc like too much perfume from the purple lilac hush? Ghosts should have certain privileges not accorded to mortals. To the west of the old hrick house lay the garden. I- ' ar down near the lirancli where Ihc tad|ioles were, grew the egetalilcs. Between the rows of beans and the everlasting sweet peas which rambled along the fence near the brick house, nature and custom of an olden day played a harinonious melody. I never saw anyone in the Garden hut Miss Althea and Carranza, but of course there were the tombstones. On the northern side down jiast the red magnolia tree and the roses of Sharon was the family burying ground. It never interested me iiarticularly except that Captain Charlie was buried there and Miss Althca ' s sister. Miss Lydia, who had gone into a decline. Miss Althea would Icll me all about them while I helped cut the long grass that almost obliterated the graves. What did I care when people said Miss .Althea was terribly queer. I knew she had a hump on her back and wore A most peculiar old garden bat, but she told such beautiful stories and her flowers were so pretty. There was a yellow rose bush that had come all the way from England and some sweet shrubs Captain Charlie had planted before he went to Yale. Then there was Carranza, the great gray cat, who padded softly back of us down the .cardcn path or climbed the white marker at Captain Charlie ' s grave, and sat looking olT down the branch wishing no doubt ihal the tadjioles were fi.shes. T thought it quite won- derful that Carranza was a life member of Ihc foreign missionary society and that he had made a pledge not to eat any more sparrows. There was a certain understanding between us. My brown eyes smiled into his topaz ones when fiss Althea came to this part of the story, and T never told her of encounters T had had with the mighty hunter down in the pasture. Down under the (icar tree was an old stone bench. Here, when the June dav had sjient itself into sweet gray twilight, my long legged skinniness would huddle close to liss .Althea, while Carranza, a huge, dusty shadow, would hunt among the rose hushes for moths and lightning bugs. Now, tell mc things. Miss Althea, T would beg. What things, dearie? Oh, the sad cryey stories about fiss Lydia. What did she look like. Miss Althea? Why, Lucy, you ' ve seen her picture over the cnr e in the stairway, haven ' t you? She had the bluest eyes — Jack Gorden ne er could jiaint the color fif her eves — and such little feet, tiny little feet. But it ' s been such a long, long time since Jack Gorden and Brother Charlie went to war, and I ' m an old woman now — none of them left, not one but Sister . nn ' s son who won ' t even live in Kentnckv. Only Carranza and black Lafayette left with mc — I ' m afraid we ' re a mighty poor guard for such memories! Why they should be guarded by a King ' s Army. Can ' t I help. Miss Althea? Carranza and I, we can run and fight a bit. e ' ll lie ihe soldiers to guard your memories. But now finish the story — tell me about Captain Charlie being killed, and Mr. Jack and You must never ask me about Mr. Jack again, little Lucy. He — he deserted and it broke poor Lydia ' s heart. She got so thin and listless and finally took to her bed- in that little room that looks out over the pasture. One day she felt stronger and she and Sister 140 - : L Ann went out for a drive in the carriage. When she came back, one of her slippers was gone. The darkies searched everywhere for it, but they never found it and from that time on the curse of death was on the bouse. You know, little girl, that is one of the darkies ' beliefs. Did she die. Miss .■ lthea? Yes, she died about a month after that and so have they all. I ' m an old, ild woman here by myself. But 1 have the menmries, and you and C ' arranza will help me keep ibem, won ' t you? It ' s real dark now, little l.ucy, and your father will be coinina; soon lo take you home. You call t arranza and we ' ll go in and sing our vesper hymn. If you come back tomorrow, we will rtnd some long dresses in the east bedrocjm that lielonged to Sister . nn, and you can play in them out here in tbe garden. C arranza and I get real lonesome sometimes . So, closel) followed by the great gray cat, 1 ran after Miss .Althea, glancing over my sboulder at the old garden where fireflies twinkled in the magnolia scented air and petals of the roses of Sharon curled themselves to sleep and dropped softly to the ground. It was late dusk when Mrs. Langton, driving her cigarette end into her dessert jilate, gave the signal for her guests to leave the table. 1 understand, ' murmured my host, that you were once a great friend (.f that neculiar relative of mine. Aunt Althea. Yes, I knew her when I was a little girl. Strange how 1 never liked tu talk about m Miss Althea to these peojile. I ' m thinking of writing a liook about these quaint old Kentucky relatives of mine Come on out in the garden and tell me about the old place in its days of rack and ruin. V(mi haven ' t seen the new l)ird baths either. Not so enthusiastically 1 followed my interesting host into the garden. Almost blindly I walked the neat geometric paths, only half listening to the charming New York murmur. Rather lovely this square with the fountain, dcjn ' t you think? In the Spring there wa iris. Now the gladioli and the hydrangeas are colorful. 1 am having the branch dammed up — miniature lake you know. Starks, vou know you luet biui at dinner, says there are umold possibilities in the old place. Rather decent of Aunt Althea after all, to leave it to her repro- bate nephew. 1 should have come to claim it long ago. W hy if s been about ten years since she died, but there was the divorce and all, and the new book. Mr. Langton, what did you do with the old English rose bush that grew here, ' ou know Miss Althea ' s uncle shipped it over from England — Well, that ' s interesting, but I ' m sure I don ' t know what became of it. Probably died from old age or Starks had it dug up; out of harmony with his plan more than likely. Now let ' s sit here, and do tell me all you can remember concerning that cracked old aunt of mine. This pear tree will certainly have to come down in t he spring. Too much shade, too much shade. I ' ll have to speak to Starks about it. Just look al those lireflies. Who said this wasn ' t the jilace for a broken down writer to get new inspiration. Half fearfully I stole a glance over my shoulder. Perhaps Captain Charlie ' s monument was there to stand with me. Perhaps we might remember together. But no — , What did you do with the old burying ground, Mr. Langton? . h, you must get over such colloquial terms, my dear. Did you think my guests would like that little feature? Why I just had them all luoved up to Myrtle Hill, and 1 even sent the red magnolia tree with them lor good measure. Thought Aunt Althea might like it better than Starks. I looked at the place where the red magnolia had been, where Carranza had been l)uried with such pomp and ceremony. Surely his gray shadow would come and stand with me while we put up the last defense. Oh you see my new bird bath. Come e-xamine it before the dusk is too thick. . bird bath over the grave of the mighty hunter! Could anything be more ironic than the laughter of this new garden? What, what the hell — oh pardon me, dear, but 1 must speak to that lazy gardener about these jiaths. I distinctly felt something leaping at me. It must have been a frog, but it ' s gotten so dark — I ' m surely glad I followed Stark ' s advice and had the contents of that ceme- tery removed. The place is creepy enough anyway. Let ' s go in and have some bridge and Something to — ■ Yes, let ' s do, Mr. Langton. But deeji in tbe heart of me, while 1 walked quickly over the prim pathway, the ghost of that golden age. Childhood, called to tbe Diher gray ghost, C arranza ! .And there was a triumph in the call that hushed the ironic laughter. — W ' lLHELMINA CooKE EsKRIDGE. 141 u-X 1 IC 142 l2l Minnie Lee Mahoney Editor-iii-Chii ' f Frances Dessalet Assistant Editor Elizabeth Crawford Business Manager The ITliscelldny Slafj Minnie Lee Mahonkv Editur-iii-Cli ' u-f Frances Dessalet .IssisluHl liditor I ' XiZABETH Cover Sactal Editor J ' Ilizai ' .eth Crawfoki) Business Muiuii rr I ' kances Ckafton Adx ' crtisiiui Ma)uuicr Mary Wattkks Advertising Mamii cr Anvilla I ' rkscott.

I m ' magazine, issued quarterly, has always been a composite of stories, essays, and IT verse representing the finest talent possessed by the students. A democratic spirit al- ways governs the selection of the material, one of the most characteristic qualities of Mary Baldwin being thus recognized. Each girl is given the chance and is urged to de- veli)]i any literary ainbition. The continued interest of that distinguished alumna of Mary Baldwin, Mrs. Roselle Mercier Montgomery, has been a great inspiration to contributors for the past two years. .Mrs. Montgomery awards a five-dollar prize annually to the author of the best poem pub- lished in The Miscellany. The content of the various issues is noteworthy for a distinctive quality which gives to the prodnctiiin an enviable position in ccjniparison with similar college magazines. i44 ss . 12l The TTliscelldnij IDins Stale Honors THE Misrclliniy is a m;igazine uf Iiigh iirdcr of nicril. Wo have long lieen aware of thai fact; and this year the trnlh has had ontside and imhhc recognition in a tangible form. In ihi- annual convi-niiim uf the Virginia Intercollegiate Press Association the Mixccllaiiy was awarded the silver loving cup as the best literary inagazine. The Miscellany was entered into the contest with the magazines of all the colleges and universities of the state. Such competition affords fine training; it broadens the outlook of the college pulilications, increases their journalistic scope, and keeps their literary quality up to the mark. To obtain this acknowledgment of rank is an exceedingly worth while thing. It involves good literature, careful editing, balanced paging, attractive composition, clear and legible ])rinting. It means a magazine of excellent workmanship on the part of the writers, the editcirs, and the printers. The Miu-i ' llaiiy has dislinguislied itself and the college; it has added another cnii to the array in the trophy case. Tlie cup is a thing of beauty in itself, fur it is an artistic prize. But it will be to lis a jcy forever because of all that it signifies. The possession of the cup is a distinction; but the possession of a prize-winning magazine is an even greater honor. The Miscellany is the second Mary Baldwin publication to bring back a loving cup from the ciinvention; first the Bluestockini; achieved this distinction and then the Miscellany. Literature is something which cainiot be made in a minute. A literary magazine requires more than lUcre page balance, it calls for more than mere craftsmanship, it demands real talent. With good material a inagazine has its substance, yet it needs form to give it finish. Both of these are possessed in a high degree by the Miscellany. For it is well worth looking at and well worth reading. 145 it }-. niiscelldny Prize Poems SORROW Kl)h, c],] cruel ll(i(K! ! riic iiieaiKnNS ui my litart stand dt-ep.

It is inevitable that sooner or later all things grow np. For many years Ham and Jam have rested their condescending eyes upon groups of merry Mary Baldwin school girls, Seminary girls, College girls. Now, with the assnm|)tion of self government, with the atmosphere of graver responsibilities and a career in the ofiing, college women walk that terrace there above the street. It is our sincere hope that our present form of Student Government will strengthen and prepare each student to meet this greater citizenship. The Mary Baldwin girl has always been the possessor of a distinct individuality. We have striven to keep the best of the old that has made for this outstanding personality. There are traditions and ideals of the Mary Baldwin of the past which her daughters will reverence and cherish for aye. .Vs time has always ]n-oven, it is the complete harmony of the best of the old with the most promising of the new that makes for perfection. It is only obvious that such perfection is hard to achieve in a transition year, but a most promising progress toward that goal has been evident. The words in the Foreword of the first yellow and white llaiikhook have liecome fa- miliar phrases of every day usage. Lest into their careless repetition there should creep any of the contempt of familiarity we write them now, considering them with care : Student Government is a modern movement among college students. It is based upon the principles of honor and co-operation. Student Goxernment brings to students privileges and responsibilities. If one is received, honor demands that the other be borne. The privi- leges of self-regulation and self-government are obvious. The responsibilities arc two-fold. Each student must endeavor to obey Student Government regulations and must demand that other students do so. Each student will co-operate with the Student Government officers in demanding strict observance of all regulations and promjit report of all infractions. 152 Klizabi ' i j[ C ' uAwroui 1 ' rances I.)essai,i:t BiissiE Lewis Although the Foreword t-xprt-ssly slates that such a form of govcrMiiiriit ilcals with all rriattcrs involving academic honesty, it has not stopped with this alone, h ' .ach silnalion which might arise in college life has hcen carefully considered and thoughtfully met. Much nl the hroad and successful adaptation of this government to the needs of the Mary }5aldwin Campus is due to the tireless and efficient etTorts of the Dean of Women, Miss Elizaheth I ' fohl, under whose capable direction the Student Council has had the pleasure of working. In the religif)US, intellectual, and social phases of college life her influence has lieeii felt, and as we pass further milestones in self-government, the realization of what nur 1 )ean of Women has meant to us this first year will become clearer and greater. The personnel of the Council shows clearly that a thorough representation of the Stu- dent Body is sought. The representatives of each class, together with the Presidents of the Y. W. C. A., the Athletic Association, and the Day Students ' Club constitute a group well aware of the problems confronting the Mary Baldwin Student. A thoroushly democratic sjiirit has been maintained in the organization throughout the year; the cotnicil, bearing, judging, and pronouncing decisions, has sought always to uphold justice. The last paragraph of the b ' orewcird seems a fitting summary of i ur ( iTmIs nf Ibis first year: In all community life the individual surrenders certain personal liberties, thai broader rights may be vouchsafed to all. So it is in college life. Student Government is the result ; the administration of student activilies by students.

We purpose to influence students to devote themselves in united effort with all Chris- tians to make the will of God effective in human society and in extending the kingdom of Cind throughout the world. With these purposes as the inspiration for lives of service, our college students work through the Young Women ' s Christian Association to mold their lives into well rounded Christian womanhood; to achieve an existence in which no phase of development is neglected and so to present themselves ready for the work of advancing His kingdom on earth. Every Sunday evening the vesper service, planned by the Program Committee, is held in the chapel. The meetings are led by members of the association with an occasional outside speaker.

It purposes to develop the musical appreciation and talent of its meinliers. It was organized three years ago and since that time there has been a steady growth in membership as well as general interest in the cluli. Meetings arc held once every month, and the programs are both interesting and inspirational. This year the Music Club sponsored a concert by the Davidson Glee Club, which proved a most delightful enter- tainment. Mary Baldwin, who has always fostered the best in music, is justly pniiid of the organ- ization representing the extra-curricular musical activities of the cullege. 159 IT-M. r.. liowni;in. I ' ..

The Cdee Chib was lieguti late in the ear, Init it was started with eiithnsiasm. The Ckib was organized to enter the contest of the glee clubs of the women ' s colleges of the state, and as is rarely the case with origitial jjurposes, this was accomplished. The group studied diligently and went to Roanoke to compete. Iti this contest the Mary Baldwin Club took third place, a fact which is not to be disregarded when we consider the club was making its first appearance of this kind and was still iti its infancy. Besides this participatioti in the ititer-collegiate competition, they have sung in college atid in town. The Glee Club is an organization which is very inuch alive, and its life is an active and joyful one. The plans for next year are for even more extensive attainments. 160 f. S J. TO Right— M.

To promote its purpose, which is to develop the social life of its members, the club gives three dances during the college year. Only club members and their special guests attend these dances. Every effort is made to keep a high standard of inembership and con- duct in the club. As the club plays an active part in college life, membership in it is a dis- tinctive honor. The club has been organized for many years at Mary Baldwin. It is one of the contributing factors to the social distinction with which Mary Baldwin girls have always been endowed. 161 -v-s : t Le Cercle Francdis LES OFFICIERS Laura Martin Jarman Presideute DnROTn Y Withers Vicc-Fresidenic ArARi.uiauTF.

KiNc Sponsor :l }-, THE most unique organization in Mary Baldwin College is the Red Headed Club. Al- lliiiugh only one qualification is required for membership, only a very limited number of the student body is eligible for entrance into this select and favored group. All members must have the crowning glory of glints of auburn hues in their tresses. Mr. King, founder of the club, and the ever faithful admirer and loyal friend of these auburn haired damsels, takes much interest and pride in sponsoring this unique organ- ization. His cordial hospitality to the club members is shown by his genial cordiality in en- tertaining these maidens, with the copper-hued glints, at the Chrysanthemum Show and turkey dinner in November. By his appreciation of the beauty of colorful locks, a treat at the drug store and a thoughtful kindness, Mr. King brings happy hours to these select members of the Red Headed Club, who are subjects of envy among the less favored young ladies with tresses of the more commonplace shades of golden, brown, or raven locks. Mary Baldwin College is one place where red hair proves to be a blessing in disguise, and the possessors of it beam with pride and happiness in a loyal and sympathetic circle of their very own. 164 The Qrdndddughlers Club OFFICERS Elizabeth Woous Pn-siilnit ¥,iA7.. mi H Smith Vicc-Prcsiilcul l riss HicciNS ' I ' oii.uir THI , nicmlicrs of itn- Gratuldaughlirs ' Chili have a very ilistinguisliril Ihhkii- in llic sin flnit life of Mary Baldwin Colk-gc. The Granddaughters arc the descendants of the mothers and grandmothers who helped to cstahlish the traditions and ideals of the former Mary Baldwin Seminary, and who have left a priceless heritage of the richer and fuller blessings of life, not only to the Granddaughters, hut also to all students of the present Mary Baldwin College. The ideal of the members of this club is to carry on these traditions which they, more than all others, should know and cherish. Fortune smiles on these young ladies and makes them the recipients of pleasures and honors which their station in the college life accords them. But the members of this chdi find their greatest pleasure in having Miss Higgins for their leader, adviser, and frienil. Miss Higgins, with her characteristic graciousness, was the charming hostess of the club at a Christmas dinner party. This year they had the special privilege of attending the Chr san- themum Show with Mr. King. The greatest ambition of the members of the Club is to be worthy of the name of Granddaughters and to honor Mary Baldwin College, of which they are so justly proud. They can be said to constitute the aristocracy of the school, and they have contributed much to its new traditions. The presence of the second and third generations bears testimony to the loyalty of the alumn;e and the lasting worth of the college. 165 : W 1 1 .iU  iHlk iifm m ll sm ■ P j ' t • Ifc W! i u UJ I pi-ia Kack Row, Left to Right— B.

This year the old Whites and Yellows were absorbed by the four col- lege classes, whose unity and function have been increasing rapidly during the past year. The class athletic managers and captains of teams represent this growing patriotism, for they have helped create it. They have kept the standards up to a high level. Stirring uii their side they have appreciated and lauded the fine playing of opposing teams.

L IJt 7 Juniors Hockey Champions TirANKSGlViNG murning witnessed the climax uf the huckey season when the Juniors met the Seniors in a inost exciting game. Both the teatns had met sister classes and vanquished them and competition for class supremacy was keen and spirited. Large crowds gathered and soon became divided into two rooting sections, offering various and numerous yells to the general air of excitement and suspense. The intense cold had both teams at some disadvantage, but soon quick iilaying overcame this and from then on the game was thick and fast. The game demonstrated what can be accomplished with a little practice, for both teams nsi d skilled pass-work to great advantage. Elizabeth Woods, diminutive Senior center, made her team ' s first two goals, playing an accurate game, backed by team-play. The Seniors scored yet once more in the half, Bagiey as left wing, going through for a fast, hard goal. The score at the half was 3-0. The Seniors were at the better side of victory, but they did not cease playing their best, having to put up a stiff fight to hold the invincible Juniors. The second half was distinctly in the Juniors ' favor. . ' Ml the violent, steady fighting of the Seniors could not stop the Junior squad. Mutt Cover got into speedy action and sent i er one of her famous hard balls. Mary Bair Bowman, captain of the squad, quickly fol- lowed her. The start worked like a charm, and before the half Cover and Bow ' man both scored again. Jane Griffm brought the game to a triumphant finish with a fifth goal. This final game gave the Juniors the inter-class chanqiionship. This game was a hard fought battle. The teams were well matched, and both iilayed Will. The siiirit exhibited by the contesting classes and their sister classes was characteristic of llie entire tournainent and also of the whole athletic program of the year. 178 ' X - — m 1.

It was a fitting climax to the most nerve-wracking tournament, and brought two of the most formidalile girl teams ever seen in action into comliat for the cham- pionship. The Junior team went down liattling to the last minute, Ijut the So|ih(imores rcfuseil tn lie hcaten, and therein lies the story of the Sophomore victory. There was little to choose between the two teams, but the Sophomores did have a slight edge in the center of the court, and it was the gallant work of [cAlliste and Stone that paved the way for the Sophomore offensive to get within shooting distance. And then, too, Spear and Harris, cool and brilliant forwards, performed their task in a notable manner, never once getting excited during the trying minutes of the game. Both teams working smoothly made a fine start and held a 2-2 score at the end of the first quarter. The Junior centers, Carlile and Wilson, succeeded several times in breaking up the Sophomore passes. At the end of the first half Cammie F ' arker had thrown two one- arm goals for the Juniors, and Harris and Spear together had scored nine points, so the score stood 9-7 in favor of the Sophomores. The second half of the game was much nmre exciting. The Sophomore guards halted the Junior attack and permitted only two shots during the remainder of the game. However, the Junior forwards tried gallantly to pass their way around the two Soi)homore guards, but were unable to succeed to any great extent. There was wonderful spirit and good siiortsmunship shown lioth on the ]iart of the players and the spectators. The faculty cheered bistil. ' for both sides as lbe ' f.iughl their way to the finish. Roth teams worked hard and gave the speclnh.rs a thrilling hour. At the finish the score stoo.l 17-11 in favor uf the Soi)honi(ires. X - ' 179 M X ' nu, I.I I I r.. KuiHT— M. liasley, U.

Thesf walls have held a generous shaie of beauty and aristocratic grace which harmonizes with the hack ground of the green terraces and stately pillars. Rut the Mary Baldwin girl has beauty of character and attain- ment which is far deeper than her beauty of face. Our highest ideal of womanhood is the ideal of Miss Mary Julia Baldwin herself, whose life was a model of sacrificial service and inspiring vision, and so this year the college has selected from the senior class the girl who seems to embody the ideals of Mary Baldwin. Each class has also selected its most worthy representative. The requirements for such distinction are broad and the qualities deep, for the ideal Mary I ' .aldw in girl is of sterling character, glorious without and within. 191 m. =. x , Evelyn Baker 1 Jic Must Represeniativc Senior 193 SS :i C ' El.lZAUETll FlELUS The Must Represenlaline Junior 194 - - n 3!

In the siiring of nineteen iwinty-nine the Stanntcni American Legion offered prizes for the hcst posters entered in a contest open to all in the city. The first and third prizes were awarded to two Mary Baldwin girls, Rhea Mildrrd Kincaid and Fr;uiees Toonur. The poster emmnittee of 20 l2l till ' Young Women ' s Chilstiun Association makes posters lor all Y. W. service ' s, that need advertising. Every year a laborious and monumental piece oi work is accomplished — that of producing the illustrations for the I ' l.UESTocKiNt;. Every drawing for the ainuial is original. Besides this, there is the rcgidar class work — designing, sketching, |)ainting, land- scape, portraits, and still life. The art exhibit at Mary Baldwin has risen ahovc the usual display. Miss Meyer is the guiding spirit of all this work, and by some magic stroke of her hand the art departtiieut turns out creations undreamed of by the students at the beginning of the college year. 209 lUhen Spring Comes Up the Shenandodh When Spring- comt-s up tlie Shenandoah She makes a sudden sally — Swift as a blush on Beauty ' s cheek- She flushes up the Valley ! She passes as in royal state — The rivers rush to meet her, The mountains smile as she goes by, The orchards bloom to greet her! All P.eauty ' s cohorts, lining up. Salute their sov ' reign, passing — The vagrant breezes mobilize. Their fragrant forces massing. The birds make music for her march, The hoarse bees add their humming — The joyful cattle on the hills, Deep-throated, hail her coming! Tlie dogwood flings white banners out To greet her every turning, And high on steep, blue mountain sides, Are red-bud beacons burning. . .So .Spring comes up the Shenandoah ! I, who have seen her, pity Those who must be content to see Her passing — in a city ! — ROSELLF. MkRCIKR MONTGOMERY. 1 - ( ' 210 f. III |«}i ' P, ; % |[ ' 4 WVV« yXV rV ? « ,« vAii M )iV XKxy 1 .

Many printers do as good work as we, and a few ilo better, perhaps. l!ut those that do l)etter, 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- therniorc we usually ilo any new annual that is put out in iiui ' teiritory, which indicates that our (irk is appre- ciated where we are l)est known. We always .strive to carry out intelligently and in gooil taste the theme a staff .selects. Intelligence, good taste, wlial wonderful words are the.se when applied to an auiiual. 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. They mean that he is to guard the staff against the visionary, the gaudy, and the need- lessly expensive, by construcli c and conscientious advice.
