T401 EI, CAM PANII EL CAM PANIL Zin illilzmuriam ELEANOR MITCHELL, Ex-'22 SARAH LORRAINIE SILl.IMAN,' 23 'P+ B AN ELDERLY ROMANCE T wixs on the river boat "J, D. Petersfl plying between Stockton and San Fran- cisco, that the story began. "Miz Harvey, let me make you acquainted with Mrs. Gay. Gay by name and gay by nature,', said the first mate, with a chuckle at his little joke. Mr. Harvey found himself being favored with a jolly smile, and a small card- which read "Mrs, Carrie A. Gay, Advertising Agent, Real Estate Circulars a Specialty." The first mate continued: "I hope you two will get along real con- genial. Mrs. Gay is one of our regular passengers. Think a great deal of her- always give her the best stateroom and aim to have a bit of music when she's aboard. This gentleman, Mrs. Gay, is a fine fellow-just out from Alaska. lf you will excuse me now, I will be attending to business," and he departed. "I didn't quite catch the name-" "Harvey, Frank P. Harvey-regular old fsour-dough' for thirty years-retired miner at present-at your service, madamf' And they sat down and began talking about Alaska, about Mrs. Gayls brother who lived there, and finally about Mrs. Gay's husband, who had been stirred by the gold fever long after he was old enough to know better-had left his wife and gone adventuring, and had died before he could repent and come home. ' Mr. Harvey was a sympathetic, elderly gentleman with the usual "out-of-the- world-for-a-time" air about him and obviously not quite comfortable in his stiff shirt. From the first he greatly admired the "brave little womann beside him. He could admire the good business sense that had grown in Carrie A. Gay after the death of her husband and could, yes, hardened old boy that he was-could almost feel affection for that gift that had kept her 4'Gay by name and gay by naturen through it all. VVhen he looked at her she had a jolly air-humor lurked in her blue eyes-but none of this detracted from the dignity of her white hair, and her general air of being well kept. A plumed, purple hat, typified both this air of dignity and that of lighter humor. They dined that night at the Captain's table. The Captain had been a friend of Mr. Gay and had always maintained that if he hadn't had a wife and child at home he would have courted Carrie Gay long ago. During the course of the dinner he asked, "VVell, how goes business F" And Mrs. Gay answered that she was having trouble with "that man VVatts.', Mr. Harvey gathered that "that man Watts" was a real estate dealer, and that Mrs. Gay had become so absorbed in the glorious optimism of one of her real estate circulars that she had been led into the unwise purchase of a particularly promising bit. Had he but known it, it was this very confidence that made for Mrs. Gay's success. The things that interested her were just the things that appealed to hundreds of gullible people. She had a ready pen and so much New England conscience fshe had been a girl in Corinth, Vermontj that everything she said breathed dignified honesty, and she had implicit faith in everything she said. It was she who in her earlier days as a business woman had made the sign for the old Frenchman, veteran of the wars of 1870, who sat on the Scott Street corner. The old Yankee "Maple Syrup and Pure Bee Honey' man had her to thank for his clientele of fundamentally "down eastl' housewives. They could not resist the charm of maple groves at sapping time that breathed through her little pamphlet. I50l The Captain's dinner was a jolly meal, funny stories, and compliments of the older school were bandied about-and afterward they all retired to the salon. The iirst mate brought in his musicg a young fellow, a pianist member of the jazz band, was found to try his hand at the piano. The first mate sang tenor. Mr. llarvey was found to possess a superb bass voice, while Mrs. Gay sang a waver- ing soprano. A blond young man who had been working the territory with the "King Improved Harmonicau added to the enjoyment of the evening. The Captain sat near the door, with eyes closed, and hummed snatches of song throughout the evening, but could not be prevailed upon to sing. After "Alice, VVhere Art Thou," at midnight, the party broke up. The next morning found them at anchor in San Francisco Bay. Mr. Harvey discovered a mutual taste in Mrs. Gay's choice of hotels-modern, a bit out of town, hence at times almost quiet-and presided over by a friendly lady and her two sons, who really cared whether one got one's letters or notg who looked a bit askance if one asked for one's key a bit later than usual, and when one left they even invited one to return. "lim a plain man-simple in my tastes," said Mr. Harvey, and Mrs. Gay con- fessed that she always got lost in the bustle of a larger place. So they stayed at the "Sylvester." That morning Mrs. Gay tended to the business that had brought her to the city, and they met for lunch at a once famous cafe-Mr. Harvey remembered it from former days. It was now the essence of New England uprightness. having been renamed the ?'Plymouth Rock." The superior waiter, the undigniiied bustle, and the rather common crowd were disappointing to Mr. Harvey. He was sad as he struggled, unaided. into his overcoat, while the waiter pocketed his tip and brushed crumbs into Mrs. Gay's lap with cool indifference. It was disillusioning to the gentleman from Alaska. He tried to regain his spirits by taking Mrs. Gay to visit the "Diamond Palace," but here they were hounded about by suspicious clerks. ln disgust he presented Mrs. Gay with violets from a corner stand, only to lind that they were not fresh. In despair they climbed upon a rubber-neck wagon, and here, lulled by the rumble of the great bus, Mr. Harvey regained his complacency. Mrs Gay was feeling the early spring charm which had made her maple syrup pamphlet a success, and was gayer than ever. They passed a most pleasant afternoon. lt was as they were returning down Market Street, stopped by the traffic block at a corner, that a gay phrase died upon her lips. "Mr, Vylatts, there," she murmured in astonishment. XYith more astonishment she saw Mr. Frank Harvey leap down from his lofty seat, and descend upon the unsuspecting XYatts with a menacing look. XVatts discovered his presence and darted into the crowd, Mr. Harvey stumbled, then caught him, the crowd surrounded them, half interestedly, the traffic whistle blew, the bus lurched forward, and Mrs. Gay was forcibly carried from the scene. Dazedly, she descended at the next stop and made her way to the hotel. Much as a scene affected her dignity, she could not help feeling the nobility of Mr. Harvey. It was courteous of him to espouse her troubles. Her step-brother, for all he was an official of the great city of San Francisco, had never done as much. He was weak compared to this virile gentle- man from Alaska. just as the first bit of wonder as to how Mr. Harvey had picked XYatts from the crowd so easily began to make itself felt to Mrs. Gay. she pushed open the heavy door of the Sylvester and found herself confronted by her niece. who turned her about and hurried her into a waiting limousine. saying l51l petulantly, "Your letter only came this morning. Father wants you to come to dinner tonight. XVe don't see why you insist on staying in this dinky old hotel. lt's so bourgeois, and you know how it annoys mother." Her niece belonged most decidedly to the younger generation. She was seven- teen and already had a touch of the "well preserved" air which so suited her aunt. She was very outspoken with her family. Mrs. Gay was fond of her niece in a way, and was otherwise so occupied that she did not mind being carried olif in this peremptory fashion. They had a pleasant dinner. There were no other guests. XYhen Mrs. Gay saw her little step-brother with his rapidly growing bald spot she pitied him his weakness and set about to amuse him. Despite the bits of conversation which told him that his wife and daughter were plotting new plots. he was thoroughly entertained. But just as Mrs. Gay had finally worked around to the event of the afternoon, which was so growingly important to her, they were carried off to the theater. Yirile, red-blooded heroes called to Mrs. Gay from the movie posters. but she was not permitted to follow their lure. They saw an ultra-modern problem play, and came away purged by pity and terror. lt was late that night when the family car finally left Mrs. Gay at the Sylvester and darted off, with a puff of scorn from the exhaust for the ladies tailoring shop on the corner. The heavy door closed behind her and Mrs. Gay found herself again confronted. This time the friendly lady-proprietor pushed the telephone into her hands, HA gentleman been trying to get you all eveningf' "VVhat can have happened to Mr. Harvey P" she wondered. "T. L. Pusey of Pusey and Pusey, attorneys, speaking. Mrs. Gay. Can't we handle your legal matters? So sorry you have become involved in this late un- pleasantness. All our work absolutely confidential. XVhen can l come and call, some time in the morning ?" "Mr. Harvey! Poor fellow," she thought. 'fl don't think I am acquainted with you, Mr. Pusey. I don't understand," replied Mrs. Gay. A young gentleman wearing a green velour hat sprang out from the corner by the elevator, book in hand. Mrs. Gay was startled. "No, no, I'm quite certain l don't know you.', she concluded, and put up the receiver. She turned. Could this fellow be a reporter? XVhat had happened to Mr. Harvey? VVhatever it was, certainly she must be partly to blame. lrle had incited the lawless act. "Miz lflarvey tells me-'l he began. XVith disapproval darkening her erstwhile friendly countenance the hotel lady interrupted: "Two gentlemen in the parlor to see you, Mrs. Gay." She turned and followed to the door, thus efficiently blocking the approach of the young man with the velour hat. XVith trepidation Mrs. Gay entered the half-lighted parlor. A gentleman got up shakily, with the aid of a cane, and a younger fellow bounded up furtively after him. "Oh yes. it is-it is. T knew he would come back," she thought, but she said, "NVhy Mr. Harvey, however did you get into such a state P" 'fOh, this is nothing." answered Mr. Harvey, looking at his cane. "XYatts, pull up a chair for Mrs. Gay. VVe have some business to attend to." And Mrs. Gay l52l saw that the younger fellow was NVatts, looking a bit gray and unwilling to meet her eye. She sat down. A "Now jimi, about this land of yours," began Mr. Harvey, though there were many other things first, in the mind of Mrs. Gay. "VVatts here says he has been carrying your deed about with him for several weeks, so we just stepped into the City Hall and had it fixed up this afternoon. Give Mrs. Gay the deed, Vlfatts. Donlt worry about it now, Mrs. Gay. VVatts will stop here tonight, and tomorrow we can get in ,touch with your lawyer and finish it up. You have evidently made a good buy. Mrs. Gay. There's a real estate fellow in the lobby now waiting to get at youf, "I saw a man there as I came in. I thought he must be a reporter. It was very foolish of me but I was so worried-'I then realizing that business was the safest ground, "I don't think I want anything to do with real estate for a while. XVhat would you consider, Mr. Harvey ?', "lYatts, tell the fellow Mrs. Gay won't see him, and go on up to the rooms- you understandf' "Yes, Mr. Harvey. Good evening, Mrs. Gay," said VVatts almost respectfully. "Bad egg, that fellow," said Mr. Harvey, as he disappeared. The question which had been troubling Mrs. Gay came out. "You must have known him before ?" "Oh yes, I knew him in Alaska, once, to the tune of three thousand dollars. but that was man from man. To think of taking advantage of a woman, alone and trying to make her way in the worldln Mrs. Gay knew very well that she was not this lone, lorn creature, but sym- pathy was comforting, and after a fashion she was alone in the world where there was little enough chivalry. She was not primarily a woman of affairs. She was carried back to her girlhood-gay and helpless. "Yes," she sighed, "it has been hard since poor W'illiam's death," and so much did she believe herself that common sense did not even rear its head at this. "Sometimes I wonder what is to become of me. After I go to bed at night I worry about things till itls no wonder my hair is white. 1t's a hard thing to be alonef' "Poor, brave little woman," murmured Frank P. Harvey. Then after a while-"I'm alone i11 the world, too. You know-if you could ever forget Mr. Gay-" He continued with an ardor which took no account of age. "Do you think you ever could- Mrs.-ah-Mrs.--'I "My given name is Carrief' Later when they went through the lobby to the elevator, the interested friend- liness had returned to the countenance of the lady proprietor. 'fYou're up very late,'l remarked Mrs. Gay. "l had some business to attend to," she smiled significantly. "Congratulate us," burst out Mr. Harvey. 'fVVe are a happy couple." The next day there was much business to attend to. They lunched at the Plymouth Rock and found the waiters particularly affable. They went to the Diamond Palace, and found the clerks most trusting and helpful. The old man at the corner flower stand showered them with fresh violets. Later in the after- noon they called upon Mrs. Gay's step-brother in his modern. over-heated office. and left him in an almost invigorated condition. I53l At seven that evening the family limousine purred up to the Sylvester and, with the step-brother and the friendly landlady as attendants, and the sophisti- cated niece, that man Vlfatts, and the Captain of the HI. D. l'eters'l as guests, the ceremony was performed by the Congregational minister. Later they boarded the river-steamer "bl, D. Peters." The Captains table was a marvel to behold. The music in the salon lasted late, and after "Alice, XYhere Art Thou" the first mate remarked sadly, "lYell, shels not Gay by name any more, but she's still gay by nature. Nay she always be so," and chuckled at his little joke.

'2l. l 55 l THE SPIRIT OF HAPPINESS ULDA works in my kitchen, or, mayhap, in yours. Edythe is my cousin or dearest friend. Perhaps, she is your niece-it may be your daughter. Hulda is a tlaxen-haired, broad-bosomed amazon, who speaks with a decided Swedish accent. Ifdythe is a petite brunette. Her eyes sparkle with the joy of living. In comparison. lIulda's blue ones seem lustreless and dead. One scarcely dares to mention in the same breath the tiny arched feet of Edythe and the large flat feet of Iflulda. The result is ludicrous. Hulda's voice is harsh. loud and unmusical. XYhen she laughs it is as the clashing of drums and cymbals. When Iidythe laughs it is as if the wind were rippling the strings of a magic lute, and her voice is low, sweet and cultivated. But the world holds happiness for both of them! On Thursday night "Swede, Larson comes "a-courtinn' the maid, Hulda. On Thursday evening John llurke-VVorthington calls on Edythe. The hour before their arrival is filled with the business of becoming beautiful- lovely for the eyes of their respective suitors. Ilulda is resplendent in a brand new pink georgette blouse fmarked down from seven dollars and tifty cents to tive dollars and ninety-eight centsj. Yards of crocheted cotton lace and blue ribbon all quite conspicuous through its thinness. Pearl ear-rings, huge ones, accentuate the generous size of her ears. She wears. also, the shell beads which "Swede" bought on their last Sunday trip to Coney together. Edythe stands before her pier glass admiring Qshe can't help it, you knowib the lovely vision which the mirror reflects. She is in yellow and reminds one of the springetime daffodil, so graceful, so delicate is she. On the bosom of her dress are the orchids which John has sent. 'fStupid,,' she breathes, Uwhy couldn't he have sent me lilies--of-the-valley? He should know that I'm tired of orchids." Eight o'clock arrives and with the hour there comes a gentle ring at the front door-bell, and simultaneously a vigorous knocking at the back door. Two hearts flutter a wee bit at the sounds. "Swede" is admitted by llulda herself. He enters stamping the snow from his boots and beating it from his shoulders. After he has removed his mackinaw. he draws forth a paper-bag from one of his pockets and hands it to Ilulda. "You bane fond 0' gum-drops, llulda da1'lin', so I fetched ye some. XYhat do yuh say if we go to the movies 7' John llurke-Worthington presents his card to the butler who admitted him and waits in the reception hall-somewhat impatiently, it must be confessed. Edythe enters and greets him graciously. "I remembered your fondness for IIuyler's creams, my dear," says he, "so I brought you a box. Are you quite ready for the opera ?'l And who shall judge which is the happier, Hulda or Edythe?

His dark skin was wrinkled, and contrasted strangely with his white hair and long beard. His eyes were sparkling black, but they had a tired dreamy look. Ile puffed at a little black pipe slowly and almost mechanically, for his steady gaze was on the glittering blue of the ocean, many miles away. At length two tears formed in his eyes and forced their way down his swarthy cheeks. For Kalani was thinking again of his dreams. For three nights. while he slept. he had seen schools of red fish. with one black carp among them, and always the red fish brings death. Today ended the tenth year since Lehua, his wife, had died, and for ten years he had longed to follow her. Now, at last, he had dreamed of the red fish. Perhaps at last he could join Lehua. Suddenly he wakened from his reverie, rose from his seat and straightened his bent form. He started slowly across the stony plain to the house of Kahuna- nui who was wisest of all the Hawaiians in matters concerning dreams and omens. He was older and more bent even than Kalani, and his matted white hair fell about his dark. pock-marked face. His cruel black eyes Hashed out from under bushy white eyebrows, and gave a sinister, uncanny expression to his face. Now he was seated among his stone altars, offering prayer to the god of rain, and asking water to put an end to the drought. VVhen he had finished, he listened to Kalani's tale of the red fish, shaking his head during the tale. "You will go to join your beloved Lehuaf' he said. in his soft, musical lan- guage. "but l like not the presence of the black carp. lt bespeaks the wrath of gods who must be satisfied before your death. You must journey to the Sacred Falls of Keanoho in the Sacred Yalley. Only then may you die in peace." .Immediately Kalani set out on his pilgrimage. At the entrance to the valley stood an old stone temple where he offered prayer and a sacrifice of fish and "Nam," From here, the road led into a grove of stately kukui nut trees which seemed like sentinels of the temple. Their light green leaves trembled slightly in the afternoon breeze. Ripened black nuts were everywhere on the grassy, shaded ground. For some distance the way was bordered with guava, coffee. and lantana bushes, and here the ground was covered with yellow guavas, while wild coffee berries and many-hued lantana blossoms made bright spots of color against the somber, prevailing hue of the bushes. Kalani passed througha forest of mountain apple trees, but the inviting scarlet fruit on the ground was unheedel by the old man. Farther up the valley, koa trees grew near the path, and beautifully colored landshells could be seen on their branches. among the feathery green foliage. At every turn of the path stood a big boulder which served as an altar, and on every one Kalani placed a green leaf and a small stone. For the offering on each altar meant homage paid to some god. and herein was the significance of the journey to the Falls of Keanoho. And this is still the custom in the Sacred Valley. At length the path met the dry bed of the river, and Kalani continued his way on its smooth stones. Towering mountains. their slopes covered with green ferns, formed the walls of the valley and seemed almost to meet overhead. for they shut out everything but a narrow strip of blue sky. f5Sl Suddenly Kalani heard in the distance the sound of falling water, and his hands trembled as he placed his offering on the last altar. llis lagging step be- came more youthful. and eager anticipation lent him the strength to scramble over an earthen embankment, and look beyond, There the Falls of Keanoho rippled noisily down their rocky wall into a deep black pool at the base. On three sides of the pool were dark caverns, formed by the wear of time in the Walls of the mountains. .Xs Kalani watched he heard a crash of thunder, and soon it began to rain, and he knew that the prayer for rain from the plain below would be answered. Slowly he advanced, his eyes fastened on the silfht before him. until he reached the pool. Then he raised his arms skyward. "The gods are goodfl thought Kalani. and with a tired cry of "l.ehua" he sank into the bottomless pool. For the Sacred Valley of the Falls of Keanoho was for Kalani the Yalley of the Shadow of Death. b HON Towsis. '23. l 59 l SPRING NE Sunday of 1ny childs' year was quite the most thrilling, the first Spring Sunday, the first warm day for wearing 1ny new white frock, for walking clean shod to Sunday School, for peeking out at the new leaves through the wide open windows. My father and mother invariably thought it too early for spring feathers, but the desire to parade under 1ny pink parasol was so great that it won them over to 1ny view. I was dressed carefully, bidden to be a good girl and set on the dry path by my father's strong arms. I met other little girls and we preened and compared notes and adored ourselves until rude little boys jeered at our linery. Then I, for one, was a bit sorry not be in gingham, and running with them in the exultation of Spring. But we tossed our heads and gossiped very audibly. It was only in the late afternoon that we gave up our starched skirts and dignity for warm dresses and proper walks with fathers. After that first Sunday we took the Spring for granted. The whole fresh world was ours for play. SUMMER ACH summer there came one day of paramount importance. My father came home at noon, came driving the buggy, with a team of bays or blacks or sorrels. A hurried luncheon gave way to hurried packing. My fresh gingham was slipped on, the door locked and the journey to Mammoth begun. I waved excitedly to every child I saw. I was in a frenzy of impatience when we stopped to talk to a farmer on business. But soon, on the white road leading straight to the mountains, we settled to blissful enjoyment of the dust and heat. The sunflowers liked the sun no less than we. XYe jogged on through green fields. down a locust avenue, out to a desert stretch, up the Red l'Iill. Here we stopped to chat with the new French vineyard man. VVe drove through a great apple orchard, a few last alfalfa fields, and then the desert until we were in the lap of the mountains, Round Valley. It was dusk and father touched up the horses. The air was sweet and very clear, until night blurred the mountains' outlines and changed the road's direction and appearance. I was awakened by many barking dogs, by the hulloos of chil- dren, and exclamations of Mrs. Roberts, our hostess for the night. I drank deep of her famous Jersey cream. I began to renew old acquaintance with the big swing, with the dear little stream, with three collies, with the staring barefoot country children, so much wiser than I and so much more modest. I loved the least pebble in the brook. It was romance to me, that strange big dairy farm, snug under Mount Tom. Yery early, before the dew had given itself to the sun, we crawled up the Sherwin hills. Pines grew in size as we ascended. XVe were in a line forest when we slid down to the river bottom, following the yet unlit canyon to great rolling plains that seemed scarcely lower than the snow-covered peaks bordering them. I 60 l lVe passed the Casa Diablo hot mud springs in the early afternoon. The air was crisping. Clumps of manzanita outlined the hill curves. The creek appeared with a crash of sound as we topped a curve. Some miles up the pine-edged white- face stream was Mammoth. where we would spend two happy weeks. That all-embracing journey holds out fresh possibilities. I shall travel it on horse-back soon, and delight in memories more than realities. FALL N .x happy childhood, of all the seasons, the golden-lighted autumn gave me the greatest joy. Unconsciously I responded to the color that swept over the country in the early fall. The slender vivid yellow poplars edging the Fields of grain and pacing down the distant hillsides stand in memory as the dominant notes of the glowing Valley ranch. The clear air silhouetted the purple mountains. The creeks were less tumultu- ous since the snow had long melted and they gloried in the beauty of their banks. The wild rose-bushes Hecked with crimson haws, with yellow-leaved black-trunked willows, red-brown and yellow rushes drooping far over to divide their lovely selves in the flattering stream's slants. Great cottonwoods leaf by leaf changed from living green to clear yellow. They shaded the dusty roads and later showered them with rustling leaves so the children loved to drive past slowly. There were a very few roadside llowers there, golden as the sunlight that through the day drifts down upon the fruitful fields. The harvesting of apples. pumpkins, grains proceeds quietly and busily, the autumn satisfying each demand from her great plenty and in her God-given generosity. WINTER Y scHooI. was out at four, and it was beginning to grow dark at that hour in the winter afternoons. VVe bundled up before the great iron stove, pulled on gaiters, buckled overshoes, jerked down woolen caps, and, kissing the teacher a tiptoe good-bye, plumped down the stairs to the windy snow-covered school-yard. My path soon separated me from the others and l struggled on against a tre- mendous north wind that shook me and pinched me and nipped my nose and held me stock still every few yards. At length my gate was reached, and I was relieved to slip inside and start up the long path, through the poplars, that led to the dining room window. Perhaps the snow would have begun falling again, and the house would be scarcely visible through the whirling Hakes and the bending trees. So the porch would stand before me suddenly, and, there, the door Hung wide open, my mother would catch me, all wet and cold as I was, in her arms and draw me in. ller smooth hands warming me and feeding me, tucking me into a robe and slippersg the cheerful room, lighted and warm after an aching walkg these remain deep in my memory. l 61 l 'l'lllXGS 'l'll.X'l' OTHER XYOMIEN BUILD The things that other women build Are beautiful and fair and straight, XYhile mine but break within my hands .Xnd leave me naught to do but wait for other hands than mine to mend And build anew the glorious thing.

Lois H L' NTICR l62l 'X THE DESERT OF LONGING FOREVER 11RoUGH busy thoroughfares and peaceful lanes they traveled together, the Man and the Goddess. After many moons of journeying they came to the country of vast meadows, uncultivated fields, and deep forests. Happy was the Man in his days of travel, heavy was his sleep in beds of straw. For by night they rested at simple peasant homes along the path. Curly-headed children peered at them shyly over the rough board at supper time. They ate the simple food of the country, milk, cheese, black-bread and clear honey. Then, after the night, came their departure in the early morning followed by the good wishes of the family. How happy he was! llut often as the day grew old he would falter in his weariness, but the Goddess lent him a helping hand over the rough places in the path, and many would have been his falls without her. Sometimes a high mountain must be crossed, or a river forded, but Man was weak and only suc- ceeded with the smiling help of the Goddess. Then one day they passed by a beautiful park, and among the trees was an exquisite house. A girl stood at the gateway and beckoned to Man. He looked questioningly at the Goddess, but she pointed ahead to where the last rays of the dying sun shone on the gray head of a woman, shelling peas in front of her home. But the girl smiled, and Man followed her toward the house. The Goddess sadly held her steps to the path. Early the next morning the Goddess arose, refreshed by her sweet sleep, and set on her way. NVhen the sun was high in the heavens Man awoke in his downy bed. His head was heavy with revelry, he longed to lie in bed and drowse. Sud- denly he remembered the Goddess and her departure! He must hnd her. So, with a bound he sprang out of the low window and rushed up the rocky pathway whither she had gone. Hatless he was, in his haste, and the hot sun -beat merci- lessly upon him. Soon came welcome shade but here sharp bushes tore his clothing and his flesh as he hastened on. And all day he pursued her toiling over the rough path unaided, stumbling, but ever pressing on. At night fall he sought shelter at a tiny cottage, but he was not welcomed without the Goddess. He had not known that before. He had trusted her so blindly. After a night's rest by the roadside and a scant breakfast of nuts and berries he hurried on. How fast she must have gone! NVould he ever find her? And now the road grew rougher. Trees had fallen across his path, boulders blocked his way. With toil he pressed onward, and at sunset he faced a high hill. The path led up the side of high cliffs, almost impassable, loose stones denied Man a foothold. VV'as his journey to end here? He could not go alone. But lo! there at the foot of the hill was the Goddess. He had found her at last. XVith a glad cry he started forward, caught his foot on a trailing vine and fell. Then came black oblivion. W'hen he opened his eyes it was twilight. Pale stars winked at him from a near sky. A tiny crescent was just visible above him. He turned his eyes to the hill looming up in the gray light. Disappearing over the brow of the hill was the Goddess. She had gone, this once-met Goddess of Gpportunity, into the Land of Fulfilment, leaving him in the Desert of Longing, forever. MARGERY MCCUI.I.OUGII, '23. l 63 l .,, THE LAKE 1 llli wind harped an ancient melody among the quivering pine and fir boughs, while the lake nestling among the high mountains dimpled and coquetted with the warm August sun. The tiny waves danced merrily toward the shore, swishing among the pebbles of the beach, a wonderful beach, as multi-hued as a rainbow, for among the soft blues and grays of the ordinary pebbles jutted the brilliant red and yellow carnelians like tiny tongues of fire. A gray pall of smoke was creep- ing over the mountains, down toward the lakeg for the dreaded forest fires were raging once again in the Sierras. XYhere the huge trees lifted their proud heads to gaze forever on the stars stood a large log cabin. Morning glory and honeysuckle vines rioted over the walls and the tangled tendrils entwined lovingly over the front door. Cats, puppies and chickens slept blissfully together in the dooryard. Two children stood on the rocky shore where a rude wharf extended out into the water, the boy, a sturdy urchin of fourteen, watching the heavy cloud of smoke as it drifted sullenly over the mountains, but the slender girl of twelve was gazing quietly at the ever-changing surface of the lake with tender eyes. "Look at it, Claire." spoke the boy with a certain fierceness in his tone. "Sec it eats up tree after tree just like some cruel dragon. lt is creeping up more and more toward the mountains by the lake and all the trees and our house will be burned too." "No, Roy," calmly answered the little girl, "the lake is our friend and will protect us from the wicked fire dragon." "just like a girl. All you think of is the lake, and the trees and forests that are burning up don't worry you a bit. l hate itg l hate fire and l wish Dad would let me help them fight it." "'l'here comes the service launch," answered Claire, "perhaps Daddy will be on board." The two children watched the "Gray Goose," the United States Forest Service launch, as it approached from the main station far across the lake. The boy restlessly paced the beach, but the girl, whose eyes were as deep and blue and fathomless as the waters of the lake itself, stood gazing at the glittering wavelets. The old mountaineers who loved the lake with an unspeakable devotion were wont to say that Claire's eyes changed with every mood of the sparkling waters. XVhen the lake was golden with the morning sun, in Claire's eyes danced shafts of golden lightg if the lake lay gray and brooding underneath the dull November sky, the child's eyes were gray and brooding, toog if the waters were calm and still or lashed into black fury by the winds, the girl's eyes reflected the serene blue of the reflected sky. or were dilated and black with repressed passion. The children's father was a forest ranger and it was from him Claire had inherited her intense love for the mountain lake on whose shores she had been born and her mother had died. Hour after hour she sat gazing far into its mysterious depths and worshiping it every hour of the day, from the moment when the rising sun gilded the surface into a mass of molten gold until the tender moon sent it quivering in silver ripples. lfor several years she had loved it as one loves that which is wholly and supremely beautiful, a beloved friend and protector. I.64l Then one summer a party of campers had spent part of their vacation near their cabin and had become very friendly with the ranger and his two children. The two young boys in the party played frequently with Roy and Claire and the two children were very fond of these new playmates. XVith much labor they had brought a canoe along and looked forward to spending many hours on the lake. The ranger, however, had warned the1n not to use it on a mountain lake. "The thunder storms are sudden and fierce,'l he said, "we never know just what may happen within twenty minutes. The water becomes far too rough for a powerful launch and it would be certain death for anybody inexperienced in such matters to venture out." The two boys were loth to forego their long premeditated plans and after pri- vately deciding that the ranger was "too darn iinickyn secretly set out to explore the lake in the canoe. An hour after their departure a thunder storm sprang up without a moments warning. changing the gay, sparkling lake into a roaring demon. lt was soon over and the sun shone forth as if nothing had happened, when a white-faced woman tottered to the log cabin. "Oh, Mr. Handy," she implored the ranger, "please fmd my boys. The canoe is gone and no one has seen either Harold or Charles since morning. If, after what you told us, they went out in that awful storm-" she stopped horror- stricken and began to sob hysterically. Leaving the frantic woman to the care of the old Indian maid Mr. Handy had telephoned the main Forestry Office to send out the launch. When it arrived they set out to scour the lake. although these seasoned mountaineers felt that the search was hopeless. After three heart-breaking hours the launch returned towing the canoe which they had found Hoating far out in the lake. Of the boys there was no trace, for the mountain lake never gives up its victims. That night Nr. llandy had found Claire gazing somber-eyed upon the placid waters. "XYhat is it, little daughter ?" "lt's the lake. Daddy. You said the lake was our friend, that it would never hurt us. and now it has taken both Mrs. Raymond's boys. Oh, Daddy, it makes me afraid l" The ranger had then drawn the trembling child close in his arms. "The lake will always befriend those who love her, little daughter, for those who love her never break her laws. It is only those who break her commandments that she punishes. Remember that, and do not fear our friendf, During the three years following her first tragedy, Claire gradually lost this fear and now as she stood on the wharf waiting with Roy for her beloved father, her gaze lingered lovingly upon the azure water. As the "Gray Goose" docked, Mr. Handy, worn and grimy with several weeks' constant tire fighting, stepped ashore. He kissed his little daughter and turning to Roy said: "Son, get on your old corduroys and be ready to go back with me in two hours. Ylfe are short of lighters and even a fourteen-year-old boy can help a lot." 'fHurrah!,' shouted Roy. "You bet l'll be ready, Dad. Gee, Sis! won't I work. They'll want me to help again", and away he dashed. "Must I stay alone, Daddy ?" said Claire. I65l "No, dear, Mrs. Forster, the supervisor's wife, will come over before dark to take you back to the station. l'd take you over with me now but we are not going to stop but go straight across the lake. Are you afraid to stay alone until supper time ?,' KNO, Daddy. l have the lake and l'1l sit on the shore and listen to the beautiful secrets she tells me." "Yery well, dear, you will never be lonely with the lake to talk to you. Some day perhaps she may reward your love with a beautiful gift. Vvho knows ?" The "Gray Goosel' left in less than two hours and Claire wandered down beside the bright shore. Supper time came but with it no Mrs. Forster, darkness fell but still no shrill whistle broke the silence of the night, only the rustle of the wind in the trees and the ripple of the lake. Claire was not lonely, the lake crooned a lullaby as tenderly as could the mother who had slipped off into the Shadowy Valley so long ago. The little girl said her prayers, whispered good-night to her guardian lake and was soon asleep. Over the hills crept the cruel red glare, until the great Hames turned the lake into an angry crimson, but Claire slept on. Suddenly the wind became stronger and the fire shrieked like a hend from the infernal regions as one forest giant after another bowed under' its scourge. The hills in back of the cabin blazed tiercely and the choking smoke swirled thicker and thicker. Claire awoke gasping for breath and leaping out of bed saw the cabi11 was nearly surrounded by flames. VYhat could she do, alone and a mere child in the midst of this awful destruction? The only avenue of escape was the lake, but since the tragic death of the Raymond boys Claire had feared to venture in a rowboat or canoe alone! She looked at the hills, a blazing mass, the heat so intense that already she could feel her skin burn with its ferocity and the smoke so thick that she could scarcely breathe, she looked at the lake, cool in spite of its crimson color on the surface, and hesitated no longer. Seizing a towel and murmuring a frenzied little prayer, the child dashed to the wharf where her father's new boat was tied. Cntying the rope Claire shoved out, crawling down in the boat, the damp towel over her face, while the boat drifted off into the darkness. All through that night of terror she lay in the boat, trusting herself to the mercy of the friend she had loved and yet feared for so long. Early in the morning, just as dawn was breaking, Claire heard the siren of the "Gray Goose." The thick smoke prevented her seeing the launch and the noise of its machinery drowned her cries. A merciful Providence, however, guided the two boats near together and soon Claire was clasped tightly within her father's arms. "My dearest." said the man brokenly. "what merciful angel guided you away from the tire FM "lt was the lake, Daddy. l just got in the boat and the lake drifted the boat away from the shore right to you. The lake is my friend and because I love her she saved me from the fire and let me live."

'Z I PERSEVERE Neff. when I was very young, our family received a catalogue from a gen- tleman's clothing house. lt was a beautiful booklet. The gentlemen all wore peg-top trousers and flat hats and they nonchalantly strolled about in well known places in or about the city of San Francisco. .I curled up in the family armchair and pcrused the booklet carefully, though l should have been doing 1ny arith- metic-only too well did I know it. llut it was the delight of 1Jl'OCl'2lStlllZltlO1l, that half worried, half devil-may-care atmosphere, that made it all the more pleasant. I. turned to page fourteen, and there, pictured in black and white, was the realiza- tion of one of 1ny greatest dreams. There was a youth in one of "Our high- waisted modelsfi a handsome youth he was, too. There was also a beautiful young lady, and the handsome youth was leading her past the Campanile at Mills College. So this was all in the daily life of a college girl-the thrill of it. I knew immediately what my future should be. Although I was very young at the time I never forgot. It was this determination that held me through the agonies of high school "math.' 1 a Mills lfreshman. I picsently found that one does not Come to College lJI'11ll2111lN to' lead young gentl men past the Campanile, but the long-felt determination never faltercd. Presently the1'e was a "prom.' I scorned the male infants from home. My room-mate offered me a Hman." My first evening dress, a full moon, the man in perfect evening Clothes, and the Campanile chiming eleven seemed even more perfect than the picture of long ago. The night came. lt was rainy. There was no moon. The "man" was only a bit different from the Children at home. Only the chimes were stoically cheerful when they struck eleven. This was the only attempt of 1ny lireshman year. It was a failure. I was despondent. I was over- worked. I became a Sophomore man hater-and thus slipped by another year. Then l became a junior, dignified, Capable. I knew I could do it. A friend of mine sent out a friend of hers to call. Ile was an influential cub reporter on one of the dailies. In preparation for the occasion I took "The Ilrothers KHTZIIIHZOOIT under my arm and Hibben's "Logic-Deductive and Inductive" thlathematics or Logic-three units under plan A-see page forty-five of the Bulletinj in my hand and went out and sat on the Oval. The scene of action should be near in this Case. A serious academic air and the afternoon sun pouring over the shoulders of HEI Campanilw as it chimed four seemed beautiful to me. I waited until only Cold shadows fell upon the Oval and it was the dinner bell that finally Called me away. I learned later that a frothy young Freshman had met 1ny man as he came from the car and had kindly helped him to find me. They had hunted at the Lake, at Sunnyside. and all along the brook. I am still that junior, but nothing has hurt 1ny indomitable courage. It has just occurred to me that perhaps it is not essential that I be led past our Campanile on foot. I have heard of the friend of a distant member of 1ny family who is the possessor of a large and powerful Car. Perhaps some day next year he will drive up to Senior porch, preferably when the roses are in bloom. I will Come out with a rose veil over 1ny little hat, and we will speed off in the large and powerful Car, I waving triumphantly to my friends who will be hanging out of the front windows, and the gentleman busily stepping on the cut-out. XYe will dash past the Campanile and out at the gate with a pean of victory from the Klaxon. Finally the day Came when ,l. was eligible for the great adventure. I became 6 . . . I63l liut even here my common sense bids me stop and I know that 1ny prophecy is false. The gentleman will be one of those reckless souls who have a noble disdain for all traffic regulations. He will complacently turn to the left as he comes upon the Oval, and we will leave quietly with a perfunctory wave of the hand to a few of my acquaintances at the library windows. My college days will be over. But l know very well what will happen. After I have been out in the wide world for some time-how long l do not know, but some day when the under- graduates know me no longer-I will return to the campus. I will be led past the campanile by a staid and sensible business man who can no longer wear "high- waisted models"-and those few girls who do notice us will either say unkind things about my hat or smile tolerantly at an lndian summer romance. Truer still. something tells me that it will be summer on the Oval. and there will be no one to see but Peter, the gardener. li. ll.. '2l. l691 DAYS AT HOME X111 feels a certain distinction in arriving at the age when one is conscious of having reminiscences. lt is like the feeling that a girl has when she puts up her hair for the first time. Although proud, she is just a little bit afraid that someone will laugh at her. The "Good Old Days" have been just behind everyone, from Rameses until now. No doubt the new days that have followed have been far fuller and more serviceable than the old. lt seems to me, as l remember the time when l began to notice things, that I arrived on the scene just at the end of one set of "Good Old Days." To me they are represented by certain afternoons when I was decked out with laboriously curled hair and a very short. stiftiy starched dress with embroid- ery on it with a big blue sash and a sailor hat with long streamers. One's Mamma wore white gloves and a hat that probably perched fashionably on the tip top of her head. It was all most decorous. One sat with feet dangling on an upholstered rocking chair that refused to preserve its balance. but was too staid to behave in an interesting way, as those at home did with a little coaxing. One's elders carried on conversation about other elders. lt was hard to understand because sometimes they would shrug their shoulders and merely smile instead of telling each other about the most interesting part of the story. Sometimes they talked about one's self and used big words and smiled knowingly, thinking one didn't understand. And one grew somewhat uncomfortable and thought that she really did not know so much about people after allg then tea would be served and one would try to remember to say, "Thank youfi and not look too hungry while trying to locate the cookie with the most pink frosting on it. The "Good Qld Days" have passed. Even we who have not known them well enough to love them are sorry that they are gone. But we have never experienced the chagrin of passing a "day at home." with tea all prepared, without a single caller. Even party calls are almost a thing of the past, except when the callee is some dear old lady who is sure to be at home. One's intimates would be too likely to be in a dishevelled state over some new book on llolshevism or deep in preparations for the next party to be a ht subject for a call. As for a 'iDay at llome,', who would have time to put aside just for that? Many a hostess misses the little courtesy of acknowledgment for entertainment. Acquaintances that in the old, leisurely days could easily have been fostered are stifled for want of opportunityg and yet would that same hostess be willing to give up her weekly lecture or university extension classes or motor trips in order to have "a day at homeu? -XNNE ScoTT IRELAND, l2l.

The long-sought pillow-slip! I haven't taken it off the pillow. My laundry stages a rapid-change scene in which the treasured hat-bag is mortally wounded. With feverish hands I grasp the bulging and gluttonous pillow-slip and swing it over my shoulder.

And by and by, as the moon, pale and silvery .rose slowly, calmly over the tops of the trees. it retlected a sort of fairy palace formed of warm colored marbles, soft and lovely in the pale moonlight. All around was silence so deep that one could feel the harmony of it as of sweet melodies. Then slowly, shyly, the fairy folk came peeping out from among the flowers and from behind the marble pillars where there was yet the depths of night. They were dressed in the softest satin of the petals of flowers, and their wings were like the wings of butterHies. And as they danced on the shores of this lake in the wood, their scarfs of the purest dew sparkled in the moonlight like soft jewels from the rainbow. They sang as they played and danced, and the cadence of their fairy folk songs was like the music of the rustling leaves. like the lapping of water on a gentle shore, like mystic music unheard, but strangely, tauntingly familiar to the ear. llut the clouds came, the moon grew pale, and the palace melted away into the shadowsg the lake lay still and calm as the fairy folk went back to their iiowery beds and left me alone with the trees that stood watching like sentinels o'er the peace of the night.

He was young and brave and ambitious, and as he strode along the dappled path he was filled with great hopefulness. On either side of the way were tall bushes on which birds of all colors bloomed in gay profusion, filling the air with a melody of color. Flowers high in the trees poured forth joyous carols of perfumeg and the youth went on smiling. There were few wayfarers in the wood, and those whom the young adventurer met were old and carcworn, and returned his cheery greeting with weary grunts of satisfaction. The fairies in the forest regretted the attitude of the worldly wise travelers towards the handsome youth, so they decided to reward his exuberance with magic. They led him from the regular path to a spot in the deep, green wood where all the fairies were wont to hold high carnival. It was a meadowy place, surrounded by tall trees, and no human eyes had ever beheld it. In the center of the grass a clear spring bubbled up in crystal coolness. the sound and clearness of the water mingling harmoniously with the birds that bloomed on the bushes and the flowers that sang on the trees. As the young mortal entered the magic place a spell was cast over him, and he became one of the careless fairies.

PRICE, '22, I 75 l "I'M A-SCARED" 11112 peace that follows a long-fought battle had entered the liristol home that bleak November evening. The narrow, dimly-lighted living room had an air of snug satisfaction at having kept out the storm. At the far end of the room, near the fireplace, sat Daniel llristol, smoking an old pipe and rocking slowly to and fro in an old cane-backed chair whose rhythmic squeak had sung two genera- tions of children to sleep. :Xt frequent intervals he extended a long leg between the fire and the ball with which his two children were playing. l le had no apparent interest in his surroundingsg he was too tired even to look preoccupied. lle had grown old in his youth. There was one feature of this house that was not to be found in the home of any other farmer in liastbrook. That was a piano. Anna Bristol had been given a great square piano by her father on her wedding day, and it was still the greatest of her worldly possessions. A door opened slowly and a beam of light illumined an old jar of tobacco that stood upon the piano. Mrs. Bristol came in and set beside the jar an oil lamp that had lost one handle but that could still boast of four elaborately decorated feet. She seated herself silently at the piano and began playing KlacDowell's "At an Old Trysting Place." with that stiff regularity that comes from lack of practice. Almost immediately Sara, her whole four-year- old spirit exulting. ran over to the piano and crawled beneath it to hear the ring of the notes better. ln a voice as regular as her music Mrs. llristol said: "Sarah, don't stay under there, l'm afraid you'll interfere with the pedals." Sara was quite sure that the pedals left plenty of room for her. but she soon began to emerge reluctantly. copper toes first. Not daunted by one reproof. Sara fiattened one ear against the piano and stopped the other with her finger. The effect must have been all that was desired, for her little dark face refiected the bliss of Raphael's angels. Danny, who was a year older. occupied himself with logs of baywood that were burning in the fireplace, prodding them with a poker, and pulling them forward on the grate so that their fragrance began to fill the room. "VVhat are you trying to do, Dan, smoke us out ?" was Mr. l3ristol's inquiry. "Nope, l just like the smell." "lint you're filling the room with smoke, sonf' "I knowg but, Daddy, so's your pipe." "l guess that's true. too,'l said Mr. llristol. and they both continued their smoke-worship. A shrill whistle sounded in the distance. Mr. Bristol arose mechanically with an outward appearance of lethargy that would have made any occurrence seem quite ordinary. "That's a fire. Anna. You'd better take the children out and l'll pick up a few things in case it comes this far," he said calmly. Mrs. llristol helped the children into their coats and hats, and unfastening the door-bolt she said: f'You children go up on the road and wait for us. l'm going to stay a bit and help Daddy." The children went out hand-in-hand and picked their way up the long, wind- ing path that led uphill through the thick underbrush to the road. The foliage was so dense that the house was invisible from the road, and the children soon felt far from home. The sky was aglow from the fire and the air was filled with the l76l voices of refugees, some fully clad, some in bathrobes and wrappers, who had crowded into farm wagons and were now passing slowly along the road toward town. They had huddled together to avoid the cold, and were bewailing their woes in muflied tones. Sara clung to her brother's arm in fright. "Oh, Dannyf' she whispered, "I'm a-scared !" HI-Iush up, Sara, you haveuyt got nothin' to be a-scared of. jest think o' these people-they ain't got any houses. . They're all burned out. Vile got a house anyway." "But I want Daddy and Anna-Mother, and 1,111 a-scared our house will burn." "NVell, maybe we better go look," said Dan. They wound their way carefully down the slope, and as they turned at the last bend in the path they saw the little house burst into flame. The underbrush had been smoldering and had at last caught the house afire. The children called for "Daddy" and "Anna-Motherf, but when no answer came and the fire came near them they made their way up to the road again and wandered slowly along, waiting for the last farm wagon that never came. VVhen they arrived in town they became separated in the crowd and fell-under the protection of a mushroom charity organization and were later adopted by two families. Charles Bristol, a younger brother of their father, upon hearing of the death of Daniel and Anna, searched the country for the children, but did not find them. af :sf 4: as Pk wk Pk PK PF Pk x X During the sixteen years that followed the fire Charles Bristol had established himself as an attorney in a city not far from Eastbrook. On a certain autumn evening he was returning on an interurban railroad to the university town in which his home was situated. Upon arriving at his station he started toward the door of the train, but was interrupted by a voice behind him: "Pardon, sir, I believe this is your brief-casef' The voice was that of a young man whom Bristol had seen many times before alighting at that station. The two left the train and walked along together. "Your name is Bristol P" the young man asked. "I saw iCharles Bristol' on the brief-case." 'fYes,', said Bristol, 'land yours PM 'fSt. Clair, john St. Clair. I hope you don't mind my telling you that I have always had an uncanny interest in your name. It seems as if I had once known someone by that name-perhaps it was some boy I played With." "I don't suppose you could have known my niece and nephew," said Bristol. "They'd be about twenty now. I never saw them. Their parents lost their lives in a great fire that burned out all the farmers of Eastbrook, and I haven't been able to find either of the childrenfi 'flt may be that I knew them once, but I don't know them now.

UI don't know-I'd like to talk to you about it again. This is where I leave you." f'NVell, come up to 729 Howison Avenue some night and We'll talk it overf, A week passed and the festive night arrived upon which the university was to hold its biggest rally. There had been a great tumult along Howison Avenue earlier in the evening, but the bit of university populace that lived up and down the avenue had left, and an all-but-depressing silence had settled upon the whole neighborhood. ,The tranquil somberness of the Bristol home Qwhich it always l77l assumed when both son and daughter were gone for the eveningj was accentuated by the almost unnoticeable presence of Marion Masters, a student and friend who lived with the family. as she sat studying in the living room. Mr. and Mrs. llristol were sitting before the fire. pretending to read the evenings news. The din of the doorbell broke the spell of silence. Mr. Bristol went to the door and returned presently, bringing with him 'lohn St. Clair. The customary introductions were made rather hastily, and the four of them sat down imme- diately. They began to discuss the disappearance of the children of Daniel llristol as if they had all been waiting for an opportunity to seek a solution for the problem. "ls that baywood you have burning there." St. Clair asked. 'A "Yes," llristol replied, "we cut one of the trees down a while ago." "',l'hat smell-the fragrance of burning baywoodf' said St. Clair, "always reminds me of Ill-Y childhood, of a dimly-lighted room, an old squeaking rocking chair. lt calls up memories of a room that I don't recognize as any of the rooms in my father's house. I guess I must have gone to see someone who burned bay- wood some time. l don't remember the smell of it at home. It is connected with a memory of a be-overalled boy about live years old-a sort of a dreamer, but with a good deal of sense. l wonder if that was Daniel, and if I used to play with him." The conversation changed, and Marion, who had gradually absorbed some of the reminiscent feeling of it, asked Mrs. Bristol to play "At an Old Trysting Place." Mrs. llristol went to the piano and began to play, smoothly and softly. "Please make it a little more jerky and unpolished if you can, Mrs. Bristol," said Marion. "l want to hear it as-well, as it used to be." Mrs. lrlristol replied with the odd request. XYhen she had finished Marion said: "I always want to go and sit under the piano when I hear that-I like it, and yet it frightens me. It makes me feel restless, too-as if I had to leave a cosy room and go out into the stormy night. I always wonder why, because neither of my parents play the piano, and l know I never heard the piece at home." "Here. You children are getting too reminiscent," said Mr. llristol. "l.et's make a little noise." A party thus stirred up seldom resumes its pensive demeanor. Not long afterward shouting and rumbling of wheels was heard on the street. "Oh, there are the boys from the rallyf' Marion said. "Let's go out and see them." She and St. Clair went out to the street. The night was cold and windy and the sky was illumined by the reflection of the rally fire. The shouts grew more distinct until around the corner of the road came an old wagon filled with college boys dressed in variegated pajamas and drawn by a group of unfortunate Fresh- men. A wave of desolation swept over Marion and St. Clair as they stood there in the wind. Marion grasped his arm and- "Oh, Dannyf' she whispered, 'Tm a-scared V' "Hush up. Sara, you haven't got nothin' to be scared of. jest think o' these people-they haven't got any houses. They're all burnt out. XYe got a house, anywayfl "XVell, maybe we better go look," said Dan. lQ73l llut as they turned to enter the house they saw it there still somber and tranquil. They reached the door of the living room just in time to see Mr. llristol dis- appearing at the far end of the room. "Uh, lfnele Charlie," St. Clair sang out, "l'd like to have you meet Sara and Danny Vl- lXl.XR-I om li llOYLli, 722. l79l A FIR TREES CALI.

RUTH F1zRGUsoN, '23 lS0l A CHRISTMAS MORNING Their faces were aglow with the refreshment of cold water, and their wet hair stood on end as if it had been frightened by vehement combing. Their clothes had an air of hurried Christmas happiness. Four and six, these two boys were, and already that morning they had conquered imagined worlds. Away they ran, out among the other boys, vying vociferously with them, each contending for the excellence of his own possessions. The little, ruddy-cheeked, kindly English woman from down the street hurried cheerfully up the hill, taking the annual plum pudding to her friends. And as she passed the group of boys one of them shouted to her in his American way, "Look at the baseball l got! Isn't it swell?" AT THE SHOP Even the air she breathed had changed. The world of-activity that had en- compassed her but a moment before vanished. Shouts of "How did you come out, Alice ?" and "XVasn't that ex terrific ?" close beside her became an unintelligible din and then faded into obscurity. On one side an expectant crowd choked the doorway of the little postofficeg everyone glanced with nervously impatient toler- ance at her excited neighbors. On the other side a thin line of girls trailed out of the door. Some of their heads were bent down in attentive absorption, others in dejected disappointment. And there she stood reading a letter. blocking the traffic, oblivious of everyoneg her face bespeaking a relief unutterably tragic. Motionless she stood, without tranquility, every nerve paralyzed by the shock of the blessed and yet painful realization-she could not love him.

M INZI i.XRIQl'I'l'.X THE LOVE THAT PASSETI-I UNDERSTANDING 1112 wind came shrieking like a demented thing down the canyon. piling masses of snow into fantastic shapes and hurling itself furiously at the tall pines which, cracking and bending, dropped their heavy burdens of snow in order to combat the fierce blasts more freely. The clouds hung heavy and leaden, and the rocky walls of the canyon stood cold and impenetrable in their icy covering. The tiny pools which had formed in the crevices of the rocks in the bed of the river were covered with ice. but the main stream wound a tortured path through the boulders so black and cold it made one shudder to look at it. Absolute silence, the mysterious, awful silence of the mountain winter, where desolation reigns supreme and the footsteps of Death, Famine and Disease tread noiselessly over the marble expanse, surrounded and brooded over the world. The one note of warmth and human companionship lay in the heart of the canyon where the mining town of Wihiskey Diggings lay enshrouded in the snow. ln the old days it was wont to bid a riotous welcome to the few travelers who dared venture into the treacherous mountains where the scum and rot of the earth sought refuge from the code of civilization and relief from the terrors of conscience. llefore the coming of Geoffrey XYarren the very atmosphere had been foul with the black poisons of all that is worst in man-murder, hatred, and viciousness unspeakable, covered by the garish lights of the dance hall and the drunken ribaldry and the whirl of the roulette wheels in the saloons predominated. livery law, judicial and moral, was shamelessly violated, and as long as the mine owners waxed rich on the yellow wealth of the earth they cared little for the welfare of their men. Upon the death of old Angus XVarren, the l'resident of the Company, his son. Geoffrey, succeeded to his place as directing head. Forceful, vital, cleansed by the breath of the fierce winds in open places, and strong with the strength of the one who has met and conquered circumstances, Geoffrey XN'arren arrived to make a personal inspection of his new property. XVithin six months the last gambling hell had closed its doors forever and the lurid lights of the dance hall had been effectually dimmed. .X new era of peace, decency. and tranquillity descended upon this erstwhile turbulent region, the old and vicious crowd drifted away and a newer and better element came in their stead. Families came to settle and happy voices of children echoed down the canyon. The first winter passed without any untoward incident, and the following summer glided rapidly by. The mine was increasing its output and serene happi- ness reigned in the little camp. lfall came early and with it signs of a severe winter. The camp awoke one morning to gaze upon a voieeless white world, and from that day forward the sun hid behind an impregnable bank of clouds and winter brooded over the land. Then came diphtheriag how or from whence no one could guess. An Italian laborer became ill, and with the fear and superstition of the ignorant refused to call the mine doctor until all hope of aid was past and two-thirds of the laboring population had been in contact with him. The epidemic spread rapidly. although Dr. Ainsley and Geoffrey waged a stubborn, ceaseless war against it. lt was l33l impossible to procure anti-toxin for the weight of snow had broken the telephone and telegraph wires and the unending storms had made it impossible for any one to get out of the canyon to Downiville on the other side of the ridge. The one educated white woman in camp, Dr. john Ainsley's younger sister, Sibyl, did the work of a dozen, fighting side by side day and night with her brother and Geoffrey against this sinister foe, but to no avail, for from one cabin to another Death stalked forth and spared neither man, woman, nor child. To the stricken camp Sibyl Ainsley, because of previous hospital training, was the ministering angel. Since her arrival in the isolated little town two months before to spend the winter with her brother she had occupied the innermost shrine in the heart of Geoffrey XYarren, a place which had been kept through- out his forty years for her alone. From the very first the habitual wall of reserve with which he surrounded himself in the presence of women had broken down under her spell, and' the long-denied passion of love overwhelmed him. .-Xs she was the one woman in his life, so was he the one man in hers, and she poured unreservedly upon him the great gift of her love. NVith these two there was no need of words, so deep was the understanding existing between them. and the glorious sun of their mutual love shone blindly forth even down in that winter world. ln the living room of Geoffrey's cabin with its rough walls and clumsy furni- ture the winter twilight was rapidly fading and the fitful gleams of light from the huge open fireplace woke the dancing shadows in the far corners of the room and subdued the harsh angles of the place. .X drafting table stood under the two front windows. now banked high with snow, littered with mats. drawing utensils, and blueprints. A scarred roller-top desk, whose almost prim orderliness pained one after the confusion of the drafting table, dominated the whole end of the room with a glaring green-shaded drop light hanging over it. A bookcase crammed full of a miscellaneous assortment of books utilized the space between the desk and one end of the fireplace. A green log sizzled on the hearth, and on the high, dusty mantle stood a jelly glass, from which the water had long since evaporated, leaving a dirty brown stain on the glass, holding a few withered sprays of red mountain berriesg a battered ash tray overflowing with cigar stubs and ashes, and a picture of a wicked looking Airedale terrier in a brown frame. Two Remington pictures were pasted over the mantle, and the remainder of the furniture consisted of a green plush Morris chair in front of the fire, a rickety orange-drab couch at the other end of the room, and two heavy office chairs. Geoffrey sat in the great chair in front of the fire, his eyes closed and the part of his face that showed between the week's growth of beard lined with care and gray with fatigue. His heavy boots were soaked through and were beginning to steam from the heat of the fire, filling the room with the heavy odor of damp leather. He still wore his heavy outdoor clothes and his hair was as towsled as a small boy's. At his feet lay Slivers, the rough-coated Airedale of the picture on the mantle, watching his master intently. The fire sputtered fitfully and Slivers raised his head suddenly as steps sounded outside on the narrow board walk. The handle of the door turned and Sybil Ainsley stepped quietly into the room, closing the door after her. Despite f34l the tired droop of her mouth and the weary circles around her dark eyes her wonderful golden beauty lighted up the room for the man before the fire as no other celestial or earthly light could have done. She tossed the heavy blue serge cape from her shoulders with one capable white hand, and with the other caressed Slivers who had risen and walked over to greet her. Geoffrey rose, and after putting another log on the fire drew up a chair for her. She remained standing, however, close beside him and said quietly: "VVhat is it, Geoffrey ?U The man looked down on her with fathomless love in his eyes. "Sybil,,' he said, "this cannot go on. Little Terrence O'Rourke died this morn- ing and his mother is delirious and desperately ill, Italian Jake's twins are on the point of death and their father implored me to do something. XVe must have anti-toxin! I talked with Digger jim, our old Indian guide, and he says it will not snow again for twenty-four hours, and by that time I can get up the canyon wall and over the ridge to Downiville and help. There is not another man in the place able to take the risk, and l can't stand by and see these helpless little mites choke to death. I know I can make it.'y The girlls face had turned white, one hand was pressed hard against her throat but her eyes never faltered from his face. Ile put both hands on her shoulders and his voice took on a deeper note as he continued: "Beloved, I want you to tell me to go because I love you, love you as man never before loved a woman, I think, and I know you love me. I can stay here with you, God knows it is terrible to leave you in this pesthouse, but our love cannot be built on the lives of others. Shall I go? It is for you to say." The girl's face was ashen, but her voice was low and steady as she answered: "Yes, go. I cannot ask you to stay. A love like ours is too precious and beau- tiful a thing and God will not suffer it to end like that. "Hut, oh my dear," and here her voice broke and she clung to him frantically, "come back to me, come back to me safely." Too greatly moved to speak. Geoffrey could only fold her in his arms. :ff PF 4: X :sf :sf PF :ff Pk :af af :sc Two hours later Geoffrey and Digger jim were ready to commence the ascent of the canyon trail. The doctor and Sybil alone watched them make ready to start. "XVhen we reach Downivillef, said Geoffrey, "we will send aid as quickly as possible and return ourselves when we have rested. VVe should reach Downiville sometime in the morning. Every moment counts while it is not snowing and night or day the trails are the same to Digger Jim. Keep up the fight. By tomorrow night relief will be here." Sybil and her brother watched them slowly ascend the steep trail until the lirst line of timber hid them from view. Sybil raised her white face to the sky. "Keep him safe, dear God, keep him safe.', All that night they worked over the sufferers, fighting Death hand in hand. and all night long Sybil's heart walked beside her lover over the dangerous, exhausting trails to Downiville. In the early hours of the morning the doctor took Sybil home and administered a sleeping potion. The endless strain and fatigue of nursing and anxiety over Geoffrey were proving too much to be borne, and Sybil was fast approaching the breaking point. i351 At 110011 it began to s11ow again, a11d w'ith a heart full of foreboding for Lieotifrey, Dr. Ainsley anxiously watched tl1e canyon trail.

Everyone registered as a student at Mills is a member of this group, and is entitled to its privileges and responsible for living up to its pro- visions. Mills College is thoroughly under the student government system, and so this necessitates that the Associated Students be a very strong organization in order that campus affairs be well administered. Every other group on the campus is in a way responsible to this body, and every student is supposedly represented in its executive board. The ofhcers of the student body for this year are: President, Lucile Ernst. Vice-President, Hazel Jaeger. Treasurer, Luella Loy. Secretary, Judith Lippitt. Chairman of Social Committee, Adelaide Hovey. The executive board is composed of these members, the presidents of the four halls, president of the Drama Association, president of the Athletic Asso- ciation, and a member at large, who is for this semester Elizabeth Lytle, and for the second, Beatrice XValt0n. Hall organizations are independent in most respects, but they are really under the student body, and of course subject to its regulations. This same holds true of class and departmental groups. This organization of all others is one of the most tangible means for developing executive ability in the individual student. It is here that all appeals from students are made if they want some feature of self-government changed. The meetings must be well conducted, and through this experience of legislation on a small scale the lessons are learned that will be of tremendous value in the outside world. Then again through self-government a splendid feeling of integrity and individual responsibility is developed. The students learn to form a very rigid code of honor, and to rely on themselves for their judgments, and thus to become dis- tinctly more mature. After all, if college is a preparation for life the student body is one of the best means for such preparation. lt builds character, initiative. sense of responsibility and an unseltish interest in what is going on around you. Much or any more than that is not necessary to make one ready to live the right kind of life as a citizen in any community whatsoever. 1 1021 lCXI'Ii'l"I'IX'IC BOARD OF Tllli .XSSOCI,X'l'l'IIJ S'1'lfDEN'l'S Lucilc Ernst Hazol Jaeger Louise Mears liczltricc Walton Luella Loy lilizaheth Lytle Margaret Thomson NIZ11'gIll'Ct Long Esther Butters lilizalmvtll Cockcroft lbnrotlmy Crew .Xrlcigll ,Farrell Irene NYillia111son Ilmmwtlxy Calef .Xzla lleverialge .Mlclzxidc Hovey Y. W. C. A. HIS year has been a very happy one for Miss Y. The reason? Simply because shes been playing her favorite game, called "service," with a bigger and better Mills than ever before. Her tirst chance to play this year was on the shores of l.ake Aliso when she acted as hostess at a glorious "welcoming" picnic. Talks by such friends as l'resident Reinhardt, Professor lhirges Johnson of Yassar, Rosalind Cassidy and Marion l'ossons, as well as "eats" and games in Alumnae llall made the evening a regular starter for a big Mills year. And so with the joy of that first evening to start on, Miss Y began the year with a smile, determined to be a bigger and better friend to the campus than she had ever been before. One night, soon after registration, Mills llall was filled from top to bottom. The Seniors were helping Miss Y entertain the rest of the college at a myriad of informal nine o'clock teas. Then after a few weeks had passed and all her old friends had done their best to let the Freshmen know what kind of a "pal" Y. XY. could be, something known as a membership drive began and every girl was invited to give her pledge of friendship to Y. VV. At the convocation candle service when Dean lige explained the meaning of such a pledge, the bonds of friendship were sealed tight and Miss Y was convinced that she had the support of a goodly portion of the campus for the rest of the year. No one will forget the good times we have had around the Alumnae Hall tire on VVednesday nights. Once "Ecky" Dayman came and because of her own glorious experience could make us thrill over the joy of work. Another time Dr. XVhite of San Rafael set everyone to thinking with his "Khaki" testament talk, while Asilomar famed Doctor French of Los Angeles, Miss llentley, Miss Guthrie and our own President Reinhardt and Rosalind Cassidy have all been among the leaders of hours long to be remembered. Miss Y is a great believer in off-campus relationships whether they be with our next-door neighbors or with those across the Pacific. The steadily increasing friendship with the LT. C. Y. XY. C. A. stands out as delightful next-door-neighbor relationship. On the night when Lillie Margaret Sherman spoke the entire Berkeley Cabinet came out for dinner and met a hundred or more Mills girls at a social half hour held in Alumnae Hall after the regular meeting. Later in the year thirty or forty girls from Mills were entertained by an Asilomar afternoon and banquet in the new University of California Y. XY. C. A. building. Yarious types of Social Service work done in connection with the Oakland Y. VV. C. A. A most successful series of discussion groups, and a number of successful world fellowship meetings have done much to extend our sympathies and thoughts beyond the campus. Then when the nation-wide Student Yolunteer Convention, to be held at lies Moines, lowa, was announced, the entire campus proved its interest in world Christianity by generously helping to send Mills representatives there and further by receiving with enthusiasm the report which the delegates brought back from this great gathering of seven thousand Christian students. 11041 C.XI!lNli'l' OF THE Y.

In the first place its definite democratic principles exactly lit the progressive ideals of Mills College. The former organization, the Drama Club of last year and years before, was very unsatisfactory inasmuch as the membership was limited by the vote of the active members, its activities were little known, and its voice had practically no power. The plays produced on the campus were not under the club, but under the authority of each separate class, so that waste of materials, makeup, property, and the like resulted, ill feeling was more apt to arise between classes when one committee in a class misplaced something belong- ing to another class or organization. Now it is quite different. Anyone attending Mills College may be an active member of the Drama Association. The only requirement is the payment of yearly dues. But on paying the dues the student is given a card admitting her to all college and class productions that are under the supervision of the Drama Association. The members have the right of elect- ing their ofhcers, and the college play and all the class plays have now come into the jurisdiction of the Drama Association. It is not a body that is dominated by a few, but all those interested have an equal opportunity. The leadership of such an organization naturally is important, and this year Ada Beveridge as president proved her executive ability. Because of the unrestrained membership this organization ranks higher than a departmental club. Its voice is respected because its members are consulted in the case of any decision that has to do with the progress of dramatics on the college campus. The committees for properties. makeup, costumes and stage management have eliminated the confusion of not knowing what has been done with the college property after it has been used. Besides the practical work that is done in the production of plays, there is the regular fortnightly Thursday evening student study hour. At these meetings plays are read by members of the association. The first of these to be given was "Deurdu" by John Millington Synge, read by Lois Hunter. Marion Hedrick read "The Old Lady Shows Her Medals" by john Barrie. Margaret Smith read for the association the delightful play by Bernard Shaw, "Androcles and the Lion." The last of the March meetings Margaret Long read "Monsieur Beau- caire" by Booth Tarkington. One can easily see that the readings are exceptional selections, and ,varied in their appeal. 11061 OFFICERS OF THE DRAMA ASSOCIATION ,Xda Beveridge Katherine Simon Esther XVaite Margaret Long ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION HE Athletic Association plays a very vital part in our college life. ln spite of the fact that we are a girls' college we are very much interested and increasingly proficient in athletics. The officers of this association for this year are' l'resident, Irene W'illiamson. Vice-l'1'esident, Elizabeth Coffeen. Secretary, Mary Clark. Treasurer, Jean Bailard. Many branches of athletics are taken up at Mills. liarly in the year comes hockey, in which Mills usually competes with Stanford. This year the game was canceled because of rain which rendered the held too muddy for a game. Next on the calendar comes basketball, where Stanford was met. Handball was played against the University of California, and then the tennis matches were played off. liaseball practice begins at once, and then the year is ended with the lield meet. This year the field meet will have a very novel feature. The main events, such as the fifty-yard dash, seventy-live-yard dash, broad jump, high jump and relay race will be run and the records will be compared with those made by the students at liryn Mawr in a similar contest on the same day. Thus we will be able to get a rough estimate as to the comparative prowess of Eastern and XVestern girls. Liosi OFFICERS OF THE ATIILETIC ASSOCIATION Irene NVilliams0u Elizabeth CufIecn Mary Clark Jean llzlilanl WEEKLY llli Mills College l'Vvnkly is an organization which very truly retlects the growing spirit of Mills. .lt is a four-page paper which comes out every week, and although it has only been in existence three years it is now an integral part of our college life. Until this year the staff has been quite small, and has had a tendency to be rather unrepresentative of the true campus spirit. Now, however, the stan' itself has been enlarged, and a goodly number of reporters has been added. A good deal of original work has been done with this publication this year, and the staff has branched out into several new fields. The greatest addition that this staff has made is the increase in the independence and virility of editorial opinion. The news in the llfvclely is also becoming distinctly less hackneyed and commonplace, and special features in each issue are looked for, President Reinhardt has always had great hopes for the W'cekly, and her plan is that when the college is large enough to support it a daily will be published. For the present it rests with the students to make the l'Vvck!y a still more vital organ of public opinion and a more representative record of campus news. This can never be accomplished except with the constructive co-operation of all the students. VVe must all take an interest in this publication, which is truly our own, and make it a fair picture and reflection of our life and opinions. I1l01 S'1'.XI"lf OF THE MILLS COLLEGE XYEEKLY Dorothy Calef Doris Dozier Luclln Loy Hazel Jaeger Ximian Hedrick Hr-:xtrice XYaltun Nlargzxrct Sloss Virginia Grahu Franca-S Price STUDENT AID HAT is the Student Aid Society, and what good is it going to do me to pay my dollar for becoming an annual member?" the Freshman will probably ask when she is approached for one of her precious dollars. The name does not sound particularly interesting to her, but after the patient collector repeats her explanation of the work of the society, the dollar usually comes forth willingly. Probably this particular student will go merrily on through her college year and not hear again of this organization, until the next fall the collector pops her head into the room and says, "You want to pay your Student Aid dues now, don't you F" However, although little is heard of the society among the students at large, yet a great deal of good is really accomplished in a quiet way by this important organization. In 1913 the Student Aid Society was organized with the following purposes in view: the establishment of a Graduate Scholarship Loan Fund, the raising of an Undergraduate Loan Fund, and the management of a llureau of Occupations. During this last year the third of these functions had been taken over by the Alumnae office. The Graduate Scholarship Fund makes it possible for a student of ability to go on with graduate work when her means are insufficient. ln every case the students who have received such aid and taken graduate work in other colleges, have brought added recognition and a higher appreciation of our own college. As the name suggests, the Undergraduate Loan Fund gives aid to the students needing financial assistance. Annual membership dues and contributions form this fund. . The splendid work done by the society is largely due to the president, Dr. Traver. The other officers for this year are: Margaret Thompson, vice-president. Dr. Anna S. Cox, secretary-treasurer, Dean Hettie B. Ege, faculty member. Emily Heitman, student member. Margaret B. Long, student member. SCHOLARSHIPS AND PRIZICS Generous friends who recognize the importance of education have given to Mills College a number of scholarships to be awarded to deserving students who have insufficient means with which to secure a college education. Since the number of applicants for these is always far in excess of the number available, utmost care has to be exercised in their award. To hold a scholarship at Mills College is, therefore, to be recognized as one of the best students in any class. In March President Reinhardt announced at assembly the gift of two new scholarships, one by the Nichols family, and the other by the Mary Atkins Memorial Association. The graduating class last year, 1319, decided to make their gift to the college a scholarship. Three hundred and Hfty dollars, as a nucleus for this aim, was left with the provision that until the fund should be large enough to use as a schol- arship, the Student Aid Society should have the privilege of using the money for loans. C fnzl Other annual awards of two prizes: The Elizabeth Mudd Senior PYIZC foi merly the Bonnheim Senior Prize, and the VVetmore Sophomore Prize of fifty dollars each. These are given at Commencement to the Senior and Sophomoic who have the highest rank in scholarship. Those to whom the Senior prize has been awarded are: 1916-Elizabeth Fordyce. 1917-Margaret Curtis. 1918-Helen Ayres. Hilda Clute. 1919-Dorothy Flint. Edna Gentry. The Wetniore Sophomore prize h 1917-Dorothy Flint. 1918-Marion Hedrick. 1919-Virginia Grahn.

Then came a mammoth food sale 011 the Oval which added to the Home Economics building fund. The dinner given by Mr. lVIcMinn to sixty-live members of the California Botanical Society was prepared by the Home Economics majors. The year in the Home Economics calendar would not be complete without a picnic for the Freshmen. This takes place either in the cottages or at the lake, the latter being the scene this year. The guests generally have the surprise of being asked to do the cleaning up, but as this is accompanied by games the time passes rapidly and soon the tire is out and the final songs are heard. The year closed with a cake sale for the Ilome Economics endowment fund and as always the cakes disappeared rapidly.

Karine Ilrown HISTORY CLU I 1 History and Social Science Majors opened the year September twenty-ninth with a dinner followed by a discussion for the plans of the year. The tea on October sixth for majors in the lfflistory and Social and Political Science Departments was the first real opportunity for the members of these closely allied departments to come together. The next meeting was a purely business one at which a new constitution was accepted and officers were elected for the year. Doris Dozier was chosen president, Ethel Clulf vice-president, and Marjorie Flint secretary-treasurer. A series of unusually interesting lectures was given by men and women who related pC1'S0llZ1l experiences regarding matters of current importance. STUDIO CLUB The officers of the Studio Club, elected at the first meeting in September, are: President, Jessie May Irvineg vice-president, Hazel Downerg secretary and treas- urer, Marjorie Flint. The Studio Club includes as members all art majors and girls enrolled in practical art courses. The Studio Club has taken charge of two splendid art exhibits on the campus. The first was an exhibit of prints from the Chicago Institute of Art. Duplicates of these prints were sold on the campus, and the money was used to buy still life objects for the Art Department. The second exhibit is the annual exhibit held on the day of the May Fete, in Alumnae Hall. The display usually includes work from the classes in pottery, metal-work, basketry, mechanical drawing, painting and design. The Studio Art Library is a feature of interest and importance in connection with the Art Department. It is said to be quite complete in the variety and excellence of the books it includes. H141 MILLS MUSIC CLUIS At the beginning of the school year, a large and enthusiastic group of girls met in Alumnae Hall to elect the officers of the Music Club, and to outline plans for the year's activities. The officers elected are: President, Elizabeth Cockcroft, vice-president, llernice Tuttg secretary, Gladys Halstedg treasurer, Vilas Derrg chairman of Social Committee, Helen lglroadwellg chairman of Publicity Com- mittee, Ruth Carr. The purpose of the Music Club is to further the interest in music on the campus, and to make music a more vital part of Mills College life. The club has tried to carry out this purpose by welcoming and managing all musical events of the campus, by lending its services as ushers or hostesses at campus concerts. and by making possible an occasional concert on the campus by an outside artist or group of artists. At the Music Studio Teas, which took tl1e place of the regular mid-year recital, members of the Music Club acted as hostesses, and served the tea and wafers in a very gracious manner. The monthly Organ Recitals rendered by Mr. XVilliam XV. Carruth, in Lisser Hall, have been a very special attraction to outsiders, as well as to the campus family. Girls have been chosen from the Music Club to usher at each recital, and to direct guests about the campus. On the evening of March the twelfth, the Music Club brought an interesting and charming pianiste to the campus in the person of Miss Lillian Ammalee. The program proved delightfully interesting. Miss Ammalee is a pianiste of great talent, and her playing was evidence of long and diligent study. She was more than pleased with the undivided attention which she received from the Mills audience. Helen Uroadwell and her Social Committee arranged a delightful little recep- tion after the concert, when the girls met Miss Ammalee, and exchanged stories of campus experiences for perhaps more thrilling stories of her experiences as a piano student in Europe. The Occidental Glee Club appeared in concert at Lisser Hall on the evening of March the thirty-first, under the auspices of the Mills Music Club. The mem- bers of the Glee Club gave a splendid program, which was fully appreciated by the audience. The Glee Club members 'enjoyed an hour of dancing with the Music Club in Alumnae Hall after the concert. XN'inifred Perry proved a very efficient business manager in making the arrangements for these two concerts. She was aided by Helen Rich and Ruth Carr. who managed the tickets and publicity. The Music Club has been given a space in the IVcc1ely for a calendar of musical events around the bay. Ruth Carr, as Publicity Chairman, has charge of this phase of the Music Club activity. The Music Club has tried to do its small share in the Mills Endowment Fund. Mrs. L. V. Sweesy. faculty counselor, has been a constant source of help to the Executive lloard of the club. CHEMISTRY CLUB The Chemistry Club is the newest club on the campus, having been organized this year. Since only Chemistry majors or those who are taking a number of advanced courses in the department are allowed to be members, the club is not 11151 large, but size has very little to do with energy and enthusiasm of a club. All members are certainly endowed with these attributes and the club promises to be an active organization. The Chemistry Club was organized for the purpose of stimulating an interest in the study of Chemistry. The programs planned for the meetings consist of reports on industrial improvements in chemistry, original papers on new theories, lives of eminent chemists, or anything of interest in this field of study. These reports are given by different members of the club at the bi-monthly meetings. The members also plan to have some outside speaker from time to time at their meetings for this always adds to the interest of every one. Dr. Morgan of the University of California has been the guest of the club and spoke about organizing a chapter of the Iota Sigma Pi, which is the national chemistry fraternity for colleges. The organization is very simple, the officers being the president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer-social head. Those elected for this year were: Marian Haish. president, Margaret I,ong, vice-president, Janet Pickens, treasurer. It is the aim and hope of the club to show themselves so strong an organization this year that we can soon be granted a charter from the Iota Sigma Pi, which would be a great honor, for Mills would be the lirst woman's college to have a chapter. THE PEM CLUB In 1918 the upper class majors of Physical Education formed a club to maintain co-operation within the department and to organize some permanent form of activity for graduates to return to. It aims to link College and Depart- ment, scholarship and physical proficiency. Vtfith this last aim in view Miss Elizabeth R. Stoner, head of the Department of Physical Education, at the end of each academic year presents a pin to the Senior who has ranked highest throughout her four years, in both scholarship and other forms of activities. This pin is the Egyptian symbol for life and means a great honor to the major who possesses one. Miss Rosalind Cassidy, founder of the organization, Miss Hilda Clute, Miss Gertrude Coffeen, and Mgs Stoner each have the pin and each Senior is entitued to a similar one. The present officers of this organization are: Sarah McCrady, president, Almuth Arens, vice-president, Judith Campbell, secretary-treasurerg Irene lVil- liamson, Great God Pem. The Great God Pem is a mysterious person and any Pem will tell you of the way in which he rules on the night of initiation. The work of this club is closely correlated with the work of the Physical Education Department, it promotes all activities typical of Mills, and it brings together a group of girls interested in the same type of work with many of the same ideals. LAS CHISPAS' "Las Chispasfl or 'fThe Sparklersfy is the name under which our Spanish Club has flourished for two years on the campus. This club was founded by Miss I"Iuet two years ago when she came to take charge of the Spanish Depart- ment, and she has since played a prominent part in college activities. l1l6l The club meets twice eve1'y month in Alumnae Hall, the program consisting of an address upon some subject of interest to the department by an outside speaker, and music and literary numbers by the members themselves. Last year a play, "Los Dos Sordosn tThe Two Deaf Mutesij, was produced by the students in the department, which was very successful, and the club also assisted in entertaining some distinguished South American educators, Madame de la llarca and her husband, during their visit to Mills College. This year the Spanish Club has grown much larger and the membership of the club "l.as Chispas" has consequently increased. Although no dramatic pro- duction was attempted this year a stringed orchestra has been organized which entertains. adding a further attraction to the fortnightly program. "Las Chispasn has been steadily growing both in prominence and popularity, both as an edu- cational and a social function which will in all probability increase still more during the next year. TI Ili FRENCH CLUB The coming of llllle. A. Cecile Reau to Mills to take charge of the French Department marked the verge of a more vigorous interest in all things pertaining to France. During the fall semester of 1918 a French Club was organized composed of the students who were interested in French, which has assumed an important part in the college life of the past two years. The French Club was the means by which many distinguished French soldiers and statesmen were brought to the campus to tell us of the great war from the point of view of an ally and a European nation. Among the speakers it was our good fortune to hear was Father Cabanel, the famous chaplain of the Blue Devils. whose address was greatly enjoyed by all the student body. Four plays have been produced under the direction of the club, those last year being "Soeurs Latinesn and "La Barberinef' and this year "I'ourquoi Cheichez si l.oin" and "Le Filebustierf' which proved immensely popular with the faculty and students alike. As an added incentive to the study of French as well as an important factor in our social life the club has made itself felt in many ways and has been more than worth while. vavmmv amtiae Ill7l A DOORWAY A DOORWAY AS YOU LIKE IT HIE college play for this year was You I.ike It' by Shakespeare. This is the first time, for many years at least, that anything Shakespearean has been attempted at Mills, and this time was an unqualified success. In the first place the setting was ideal. The play was produced on the outdoor stage, which was banked entirely with greens. This setting lent itself particularly well to the forest scenes, but even that action which supposedly took place indoors was not in the least weakened by the woodland setting. Some hitherto unknown talent was discovered when Esther XVaite played the part of Rosalind. Her acting was at times somewhat detached, and at times some- what unconvincing, but on the whole her work was very commendable. Par- ticularly well did she do the scenes in which she was attired in IIIHIIQS clothing and was the roguish youth. Ada Beveridge, as Orlando, did a characteristically satisfactory piece of work. It is a distinctly difficult thing for a girl to take the part of a young man, and an ardent lover at that, and put any kind of conviction into it at all. All this and more was accomplished, and in the more serious or semi-pathetic moments real dramatic fervor was reached, and the audience was absolutely in sympathy with every move made by the attractive and irresistible young lover. As Celia, Helen Colgan was an excellent actress. The sweetness, devotion and femininity of that part were all there to a splendid degree, and throughout there was a remarkable absence of self-consciousness. Celia is rather a difficult person to make distinctive, but Helen Colgan succeeded admirably in doing that very thing. One of the finest pieces of work in the whole production was Esther Butters' rendition of Audrey. That was not acting, that was real life, and grotesque life itself. Her very slightest gesture was true to the bumpkin nature that she tem- porarily had assumed, and nothing for a moment distracted her from that. Touchstone was a splendid foil. Irene XVilliamson made this little jester live for all of the spectators, and she had a touch of whimsicality that was charmingly her Own. True commendation is due Marie Louise Chaussier, one of our French students. who was for us the "melancholy jacques." The French accent was a charming addition to the delightful acting of a distinctly subtle and polished part. Il24I , f, KERMESS l7l'Il'.XRTL'RlC from the time-honored custom of presenting the Kermess in the college gymnasium was made this year when produced in the Oakland findi- torium Opera llouse. Two performances on the afternoon and evening of March the sixth called forth creditable and appreciative audiences. and resulted in the addition of one thousand dollars to the Mills lindowinent lfund. A clever prologue answered the frequent questions as to the origin of the name Kermess: "ln Holland quaint, and llelgium, too. A thousand years ago, The people held a festival, Their gratitude to show. For they had vowed that if the l.ord XVould take the plague away. They'd make a pilgrimage each year And many prayers say." The Kermess was distinguished this year by the greater number of large group scenes and the comparative infrequency of clltrc uric sketches. The classic lmeauty of the Greek episode and the tragic sweetness of the japanese will live longest in the memory. while the most pleasing of the smaller groups even per- haps the dexterous Roumanian dancers and the piquant "lt llappened in Spring." The arrangement of the program provided effective contrast in the languorous Lotus Dance and the virile Russian, in the arid Arabian scene and the colorful lrish. while the folk note was struck in the English dances and the rollicking pickaninny songs and clogs. Voting for the most popular dance, a tradition since Kerinesses began, resulted in the choice of the Greek episode in the afternoon and "lt llappened in Spring" in the evening. Great credit for the line spirit of the Kermess is due Bliss lilizabeth Rheem Stoner, its director. Miss Rosalind Cassidy and llliss lirma XVarner of the department of Physical liducation assisted her. and a number of student com- mittees aided in the management of details. XYe were fortunate in having an orchestra directed lmy Paul Steindorff. ll26l MAY PETE IIE May Fete has become an annual event at Mills College. lt is always joy- ously anticipated, and it is one of the major activities of the year. There is always a contest open to all students for a theme for this occasion. In 1918 the theme was written by Marion Possons, a Senior of that year, and the story was based on that of Ariadne. The May Fete takes place at Lake Aliso, the beautiful lake on the campus, and it is always planned so that the water and the hills which form its border are effectively used for scenic results. This year the stage will be greatly improved. It is to be twelve feet deeper and twelve feet wider than it was before. As a result more people can be gotten on the stage at once, and crowded scenes will look far less cumbersome. Distance is a great factor to be considered in the planning of a May Fete on this particular spot, because the audience is seated across the lake from the stage, and so perspective, grouping, and dance figures all require exceedingly careful planning. The May Fete is under the direction of Miss Elizabeth Rheem Stoner and the Physical Education Department. The major part of the performance is taken up in dancing, and wonderful spectacular effects are achieved by judicious use of the lake and of the hillside back of the stage. The May Fete of this year is a combination theme of two that were handed in. One was contributed by Nancy Ellen XVhite. '21, and the other by Marion Hedrick, 120, and Helen Colgan, '20, in collaboration. The subject matter is Arthurian, and it has been hinted that Miss Stoner is going to provide a procession of armor- clad horsemen for horsewomen, to be correctj to appear over the brow of the hill at the crucial moment. Everything promises well for the performance at the date of this writing. It is hoped that a special effort will be made to get a large audience for this occasion at this particular time, because in addition to the special merits of this theme the proceeds of the day are to go to the Mills College Endow- ment Fund. VVhispers have been heard that Miss Stoner is arranging to include one hundred and fifty girls, if not more, in the cast. May Day has always been an occasion for real rejoicing at Mills, and the May Fete is the most significant way of celebrating it. lt is distinctly up to the students to make this annual event one that will live in everybody's memory. lrzsj 1 BOY .............

When it was announced that the Senior play was to be f'Prunella,', the campus knew that it was the culmination of a dream the Seniors had had for a long time, and because the play was loved by each girl it was bound to be a success. The part of Pierrot seemed almost made for Marie Louise Chaussier. and she for it. The similarity of nationality may have been one reason for the success with which the character was played, but aside from that there was her deep sympathy for the gaiety, love and power of the character which helped to make it so convincing. The wistful Prunella and her winsomeness as Pierette were admirably accom- plish by Helen Colgan. ln the garden with her aunts, who were the essence of propriety, she was quite as lovable as in the stranger part of fancy and dream- land as Pierrette. Her voice, gracefulness and emotional quality showed as excel- lent a piece of work as has ever been done on the campus.

D orothy Binsvvanger "The Yellow jacket" recommended itself to the juniors to produce because of the beauty of its spectacular, rich setting and because of the gorgeous possibilities for costuming. The poetic quality of the theme and the opportunity for imagina- tive art gave promise for a good production. It is not to be given in strict accordance with the Chinese customs, for that would put the play too far out of the comprehension of our western understanding of plays, but there will be as far as possible that modification of occidental and oriental stage customs which will give the audience the spirit of Chinese drama and yet make it plausible on an American stage. Dr. Kiang of the University of California has very kindly offered to give suggestions about the best way to produce the play in keeping with Chinese traditions, and this opportunity gives every promise of a successful play. llesides putting forth something novel, the juniors will have gained something in the research of the customs of another country, and have achieved more by mastering a difficult and unfamiliar art than by playing the customary roles of an American play. The richness of the stage setting can be accomplished easily by a few simple hangings on the stage. On this coast, Chinese costumes and furnishings can bc l1321 SOPHOMORE DRAMATICS T110 gllizzuct l'arker CA ST MARQlf1s ..... . . . Marie lfabre-Rajottc MARcnIoNEss . . ........

Elizabeth Coffeen The Sophomores will give three one-act plays this year as their contribution to the constantly improving dramatic work on the campus. "The Minuetu is a beau- tifully poetical play of the French Revolution, which gives those taking part an opportunity to express on the one hand the extreme gentility and polished cour- tesy of the period, and on the other hand the gruff coarseness of the lower classes. Beneath all the surface affectations, however, there is true nobility of character which turns the play into a poem instead of leaving it a tragedy. The introduction of a few steps from the minuet will carry out the romantic and poetical force of the play.

"lIe1ena's Husband" has a particularly happy choice of girls to take the parts. It is an entirely farcical play, with the ancient theme of Paris and Helen in Troy handled in a very original way with strictly modern satire. The setting is to be one of those "archeological mysteries. a Greek interior." which leaves all in suspense as to the effect this implies. Considering the setting, Wit and situation of the play, "Helena's Husband" will probably be the most immediately popular of the three.

And what a host of recollections follows that phrase! XYith time, old customs have been abandoned and new ones have taken their places, but dear to the heart of every Mills girl are the traditions of her own day. The girls of yesterday will always remember Admission Day and Founders Day as gala occasions in the life of Mills. On September ninth a holiday was always decreed, sometimes there was an excursion to the hills. A unique custom was the dinner party which ended the day's festivities. Here the girls appeared in costume. each class representing some one period in the history of the State. Founders Day was a home-coming for all the alumnae. Early in the month of May this day was celebrated with exercises in the morning, followed by luncheon. ln the afternoon the guests were allowed to "remember" as they visited the places they loved. On this day the Seniors were received into the Alumnae Association, but now they are greeted as alumnae at the annual alumnae luncheon. The account of fifteen years ago tells of the winding of the Maypole part of the afternoon's festivities. Perhaps here was the beginning of our May Fete. Now Admission Day no longer sees us hiking into the hills or having a historical pageant in the evening, and Founders Day only appears as a date in our college calendar. The inquiring Freslnnan asks, "XN'hat do we do on Founders Day?" And we reply, "Go to classes." No Mills girl need be told the principle on which this school was founded. Once the half hours of devotion after dinner formed a part of the day's schedule, and the girls of only a few years ago can tell of the Quiet Fifteen which they kept every morning. During this period of quiet the girls were supposed to remain in their rooms and read their Bibles. There is a picture of great interest in the Mills Hall parlor of the students of long ago hatted and gloved walking down the Avenue, two by two. to Sunday morning church. The church has since been known as Tolman House, Mr. James's home, and it is now the Music Studio. On these Sunday morning pilgrimages the girls were well chaperoned, for between every few couples there was a teacher. X'Vith the erection of Lisser Hall, and the installation of the pipe organ, vesper services were held every Sunday afternoon. Our Sunday evening service is still called Yespers. The work of the Tolman lland now forms a part of the Y. XV. C. A. work. Every XVednesday evening the cabinet meets before dinner, and for an hour after dinner there is an informal meeting in Alumnae Hall. One of the most impres- sive ceremonies of the year is the Convocation service held early in the first semester. All the Y. VV. C. A. members dress in white and march in procession carrying lighted candles. Dean Ege's reading of "The Vision of Sir Launfalu is very representative of the spirit of the organization. During Mrs. Mills, presidency, her reception was one of the first affairs of the year. Many a Freshman has been embarrassed by obeying the instruction of a Sophomore and taking her own teaspoon to the reception, only to find that the college supplied its own silver. ll42I W'hen Dean Ege was acting president she gave dinner parties to the different classes. Now only the Freshman Class is thus favored. livery XYednesday afternoon on our campus teas are given in succession by the four halls for the girls of the other dormitories. Une of the most unique of our social activities are the feeds. In the '70s the girls were not permitted the privilege of entertaining their friends in their own rooms. There was no eating between meals except on Friday night when each girl was given two soda crackers. And now we have the tea-room, boxes from home, and the kitchenettes. When we suggest recreation every girl of Mills or College Hall thinks of the 1913 room. llefore 1911 this room was used for recitation. That year the room was renovated. the black boards came clown, the fireplace was erected. It was Mrs. Mills' gift to the girls. Here they gathered every evening between dinner and prayers. The class of 1913, then Sophomores, were the official owners of the room. Since then it has been in possession of every odd-numbered class. YVith the beginning of every new year all our college customs center largely around the Freshmen. Un the first evening the Y. XY. entertains at what is known as College Even- ing. For several years this meeting was held in Alumnae llall, but this year we gathered around a bonfire at the lake. Perhaps our College Evening is a survival of College Nights of about 1911. One account given of the Seniors of that year entertaining the other classes. The girls came with their sewing and later in the evening toasted marshmallows and sang college songs. It evidently was an old college custom to meet in this way for it speaks of the affair as a revival of the custom of College Evenings. llefore the honors of initiation are even hinted about the Freshmen are led to believe that the Sophomores are the best of friends and counsellors. For conclusive evidence the Sophomores as ever watchful mothers or young suitors are escorts to the Freshmen lassies at the llaby Party. The first part of the evening is spent in playing drop-the-hankerchief and other games, just as they did ten or fifteen years ago. Later in the evening dancing is enjoyedg simple wholesome refreshments are served and the children are taken home at an early hour. Soon after the llaby Farty, the juniors, the true friends of the newcomers. show their sisterly interest in a junior-Freshman breakfast. If the weather permits, off we go on a Sunday morning into the hills to prepare part of our own breakfast over a campfireg if it threatens to rain we prefer hall 'to hill and feast before the huge fireplaces in Alumnae Hall. Next comes Dean Ege's dinner for the Freshmen, a most enjoyable get- acquainted meeting, with the table progressing after each course. The Freshmen look their best in their graduation dressesg and until this year the Seniors have presided at the tables. Then when the Freshmen are beginning to believe that every one loves them and it really wasn't so bad to leave home after all, they are suddenly threatened with blackhand notes. With fear and trembling they obey the awful commands. In days gone by, after they had become acquainted with all the remote corners of the campus. the poor Freshmen were taken to court. They were taken before the judge presiding over Ubeyology. Mathology, Lambology, and Manology. Now they must needs go through the lfall of Horrors. The Seniors give the final thrust with a stunt showing all the mistakes of Freshmen life. ll43l After initiation begins the feeling of animosity between the Freshmen and Sophomores. The rivalry that succeeding classes have witnessed in the hang- ing of numerals, hunting for the lamb, and springing of hats no doubt had its origin away back in '76 in the hiding of the hour. The Senior Seminary class of that year had an hour which summoned the members of class meetings. When the class of 176 graduated they presented the hour to the 77 Seniors. This continued down to 1892 with perhaps slight variations. The Senior middles captured it from the Seniors and hid it. XX'hen they became Seniors, still having it in their possession it was decided that the class below, the '94s, should search for it. This continued through many classes, each trying to find the hour, but in vain. The class of '99 broke the 1'ec0rd. They found the hour by chance in one of the Seniors, rooms in a trunk. Until the year 1905 no particulars record can be found, the searching and hiding still continued, but no one found it. With regret the classes of '06 and 'O7 abandoned the time honored custom. Then came the lamb. just when he began his life we do not know. When the class of 1911 were Freshmen they captured him. To celebrate the tlrst anniversary of this event they had a mourning dinner with the remains of the lamb as the center of interest. No light is thrown on the reasons for his untimely death. It is shrouded in mystery as is his origin. Equally mysterious is the old custom of hanging the Freshman numerals on the trees. ln 1914 the Freshman class reinstated this old custom and the oak in front of El Campanil was chosen to receive the honor. The ceremony was cele- brated with real pomp and grandeur. The numerals served at all times as a constant reminder of the existence of the Freshmen. The class of 1922 is the last class to be tormented by the mad search for hats. For several years the colors of the incoming class were kept a great secret until the Freshmen succeeded in bringing forth their hats. Generally the month of October witnesses two important events in charge of the Sophomores. The first is their informal, their first occasion to act as hostesses at a prom. lflere it is customary to display the class banner for the first time. A Have you ever been awakened more pleasantly than on the Sunday morning before the Christmas holidays? lt is then that the Seniors sing the old Christmas carols early in the morning. Xllith the beginning of the second semester comes the Senior table. llefore 1915 the Seniors had always used a long table, and the class of that year was the first to use a round one. For several years the Senior Round Table held swayg this year, because of the size of the class, the table was T-shaped. The Xlfashington llirthday party is the first affair at which the Freshmen are hostesses to the college. Also it is the first affair of the year honoring the Seniors. The Georges and Marthas celebrate first with a colonial dinner. On the last Friday night is the college picnic. And with Commencement comes the close of another college year. W r 1441 ATH LHTI CS HOCKEY I lockey is not three years old in our college, hav- ing been introduced by lflizabeth Rheem Stoner, head of the Department of Physical Education. As a new sport it was quickly accepted by the girls and now stands at the head of the list of favorites. The Mills hockey field is of regulation size, and our clubs are of the best make, affording every opportunity for the best development of the sport. The coach, Miss Rosalind Cassidy, worked with unfailing effort, dividing her time among the various classes. According to an agreement between the Athletic Associations of the University of California, Stan- ford and Mills the decision to have interclass-inter- collegiate competition had been reached. The finals are played off between the two lower and upper division classes in the college. The winning class is then privileged to compete. According to the new system, the Sophomores, having won from the Freshmen, were to play against Stanford, but the game was necessarily postponed because of rain. This same difficulty occurred the previous year. After the hard practise and training the girls were bitterly disappointed. Because of the near approach of other activities no new date was secured. There has been only one hockey game between Stanford and Mills, and this took place in 1918. Stanford was victorious. The practises for hockey began very early in the year, and turnouis were good from all the classes. As the end of the season came in view, we were often up at six-thirty getting readylfor the game. There was a good deal of competition. The captains of the various class teams were: Senior-junior, .ludith Campbellg Sophomore, Flor- ence .lonesg Freshman, Ruth johnson. 11461 CREW Crew is a sport in which one must take real time and work since it cannot be accomplished otherwise. Every girl who rows must be in perfect physical condition. The coach is Elizabeth Rheem Stoner, assisted by Rosalind Cassidy and Erma Wlarnerg the latter are assistants in the Department of Physical Education. To these coaches Mills should give much credit for the long hours devoted to turning out a crew worthy of the college. Besides these coaches, Mr. Babcock of Mare Island spent one week in coaching our crews, especially in starting. lt is thought that much of our success in the races was due to this start. On March twenty-seventh the crew races be- tween the University of California and Mills were held. It was a perfect day for races and there was a fine crowd at Lake Merritt. Mills proved success- full in every race, of which there were four, because the contest was purely interclass. The time was as follows: two minutes, thirty-six seconds, Seniorsg two minutes, thirty-two seconds, juniors, two min- utes. twenty-nine and two tenths seconds, Sopho- moresg two minutes, twenty-nine and three-tenths seconds, Freshmen. judges were selected by both the University of California and Mills. The races were not at all close, but both the University and Mills deserve credit for their skillful handling of the oars. On March thirtieth Mills held its interclass crew races. The victorious classes were the Seniors and the Sophomores. The crews were as follows: Seniors: Coxswain, Helen Colgan: pilot, Ruth Schleuterg starboard, Doris Dozier, Sarah McCrady, Adelaide Hovey, Ruth Frankenheimer, Marjorie Flint, Katherine Simon: port. Stella Leviston, Lucile Ernst, May Kellogg, Florence Rodgers, Mad- elene Smith, Mary Nafe, Lillian Couper. ll-17I BASEBALL Usually when one speaks of girls' baseball, there is a round of partially hidden smiles. llut if you could see Mills play its game of baseball, you would realize that we develop the sport to its greatest height. l'ractise begins in the spring soon as the rains cease. The game is a regulation one, even to the use of a hard baseball. The first contests are inter- class and there is some real competition between the Sophomores and Freshmen. The Sophomores usually prove victorious. ln the past years the event of most interest to the students has been the Faculty-Senior baseball game. All the players are dressed in queer costumes sym- bolic of their team. The wearing of certain light pink hats by certain members of the faculty has almost become a tradition. Our coach, Elizabeth Rheem Stoner, knows the game from all angles. It has been through her advice that we have been able thoroughly to understand the game. Sara Mc- Crady, '20, is the manager for this year. Through her eiforts Mills is getting into shape for the big Stanford game. The College of the l'acitic also wishes to com- pete with us. XYe have been forced to refuse since that college does not belong to the athletic triangle. The date upon which we play Stanford has not been decided, We are all very anxious to see the results ofithis season. Our pitcher for three years has been lrene VVilliamson, '21. Other baseball enthu- siasts are Dorothy King, '21, Sara McCrady,'2O. Margaret Sloss. '21, Genevieve Anderson, '22, Mary Clark,'2Z, Isabel VVocker,'23, Almuth Arens,'21, and jessica W'ilbur. '21, lt may be of interest to note that Mills through the eH'orts of Miss Stoner was one of the first col- leges to develop this sport to its utmost. 11431 BASKETBALL Coach. Elizabeth Rheem Stoner, manager. Gene- vieve Anderson, '22. Since this is one of our oldest sports, and one that we all love, it is with pleasure that we looked to the Sophomore class this year. On March eleventh the Sophomores and Fresh- men played to see who would compete with Stan- ford. The Sophomores won by a score of forty- seven to seven. On March thirteenth Stanford played the Mills Sophomores in our gymnasium. The result was a victory for Mills with a score of twenty-eight to eighteen. The Sophomore team consisted of Genevieve Anderson, Ruth Palmer, Grace Cockcroft. Elizabeth Coffeen, Margaret Dolf, and ,lean Bailard. The Freshmen players were: Helen Hall. L. Brown, Rose Moulton, Yirginia Law, Beatrice Hen- ning, Elizabeth Porteriield, ll. Bransted. Isabel Leithold, and Helen Morey. HANDBALL This year was the lirst time Mills has chosen handball for one of its sports. It came first on the list of athletics and so was greeted with enthusiasm. The girls were all keen to try out and learn the new addition. VVe had as our coach Miss Erma XYarner. lean Gunn. '22, was manager. On November first we were schedule:l to compete with the University of California. lt was rather a sad day for us. The University presented a heavier team and had the advantage of playing on their own courts. Their girls had more speed and dexterity than ours. possibly due to somewhat more practice. But while new at the game we put up a hard Fight. The teams were as follows: Seniors, singles, McCradyg doubles, Ernst and Nafe. juniors. singles. XYilliamsong doubles, King and Sloss. Sophomores, singles, hlonesg doubles, Irlailard an'l Abrahamson. Freshmen, singles. XVockerg doubles, Johnston and Vtfilliams. 11491 TENNIS Although tennis is not one of our major sports, it is, nevertheless, one of the most universally played in the college. The contests in this sport have us- ually been interclass. This year Mills was scheduled to play the University of California on March twen- ty-seventh. The coaches in this sport are Miss Stoner, Miss Cassidy and Miss XYarner. The tennis manager is ,lean Hailard. It was disappointing when the finals could not be played since enthusiasm ran high this year. ln the future we hope to set our tennis tinals when the rain will not be apt to interfere with the results. Mills is hoping to have more courts since the ones we have at present are not adequate. The people who showed the greatest interest are Sara McCrady, '20, Margaret Sloss, '21, Dorothy King, '21, lrene XYilliamson. '21, glean Bailard,,22, Ruth ilohnston, '23, Virginia Simler, '25. WALKING Xlalking is fast becoming a popular sport among the Mills College girls. This year fourteen girls will he awarded the club M pin at the college picnic. This year the girls have taken many hikes around the bay district, including one to Mt. Tamalpais, Muir VVoods, liig Lagoon, and the Joaquin Miller home. The girls who will he awarded pins for member- ship for this year are Mary Nafe, Lillian Couper, Ethel Eaton, Marjorie Spring, Margaret Andrade. Olga Scheuermann, Yirginia Simler, Pauline Mc- Lean, Margaret Hunt, XYinifred VVilliams, Lena lieth Ilryan, Dorothy XYillard, Marcelline Rotchy, and Iisther Sellman. rising l FIELD DAY liield Day at Mills really means a summing up of the track activities during the year. The track meet has always been interclass. Field Day is under the supervision of Elizabeth Rheem Stoner. assisted by Rosalind Cassidy, Erma Xlarner, and the four class managers. The events include high jump, running and stand- ing broad jump, discus for form and distance, forty and fifty-yard dashes. Practice in track is carried on mostly in the gymnastic classes. This year there has been some discussion of hold- ing our track meet on the same day that Bryn Mawr schedules hers. The results will be compared and the victorious college decided upon. lt will be the first time any competition has taken place between an Iiastern and lYestern woman's college. Mills is working unusually hard, therefore, to maintain her standard. Our track field offers every advantage. lt is of regulation size. The field is equipped with a jump- ing pit of sand. Our jumping standard and discus are part of the gymnasium equipment. The first event will be high jump. Mills not only jumps for height. but for good form. Last year ,lean Bailard. '22, took first place with a jump of four feet. Others who have gained mention in the high jump are Dorothy King, jean Gunn, and Almuth Arens. This year we expect to exceed the records of last year. The broad jump. both standing and running, was well done last year. ln fact. they out-scored the records of previous years. The winners in both standing and running jumps were ,lean llailard. '22, First placeg lrene lYilliamson, '21, second place. 11511 Discus is taken both for form and distance. Great pride is taken in this sport as Mills Considers it one of her best. Those who gained mention from previous track meets are Sara McCrady, '2O. lrene Williamson, '21, and Dorothy King, 'Zl. liesides the above names, there are contests in fencing and archery. Fencing is under the super- vision of Miss Warner. Miss Stoner, with her ex- perience in archery, coaches this art. The girls are not only instructed in shooting with the best form, but also in the care, stringing, and unstringing of the bows. During the year Miss Stoner has had several famous archers on the campus to demonstrate for those interested. The annual field day of Mills College was a worthy result of the year's work. At no other time is there a better example of clean, honorable com- petition with excellent results. N521 Q k-Tiiigi Rl . Ai WM N x N Q Ss?
