Z' E DI TOIQIAL ,Wu f , ' ' . . ff , .fee K .UU GRADUATION Graduation, from the senior's point of view, is an accomplish- ment--an attaimnent. We have worked for tour long years to gain our diplomas., we have studied, and perhaps Hcrammedl' for our exams, and now we are reaping the harvest of all the seeds of knowledge, sown four years ago. But there is another aspect of graduation. VVc?ve had a lot of fun while we've been here-basketball and baseball games, hikes and picnics, initiations and plays. We 'll miss these things, perhaps, when we look back over our school days, and maybe we will wish we could be back for just a day. What are you going to do, now that you've finished high school? Will you go on with your education or will you let it stop now? So many high school graduates 'l'eel that when they have finished their four years work, they know all that they need to know. But in order to hold any high position, nowadays, a young man or woman must have a college education. Advertisements call for college graduates, big business needs the best educated men and women'g and in the home, too, a college education will be of great help. So think twice, graduates, about keeping on with your education! ttWl1at shall I do with my life?'l This very important question is one which every person must face at the time of his graduation. Time was, in ancient days, when a son followed his 'tatheris trade automatically, and a girl must marry. Now all must decide what career they will choose. Wliat shall they take? One answer is what are they fitted to do? There are two important factors to be considered in determin- ing a career: am I fitted for this work, mentally and physically, can l follow it faithfully with my whole soul: am T prepared, natur- THE CRIMSGN AND WHITE 5 ally and by training, for it? That is the first question. It seems like a series, but each query relates to the other. Before taking up a certain line of work one must decide whether or 11ot one has the natural ability and proper training for it. ln order to be successful, one must be physically and mentally able to carry on that task, what is more important yet, one must be able to carry on whole- heartedly, with a great love for it. The second question follows naturally: is this career going to benefit me in particular and the world in general? This question is much more important than it looks on the surface. llnless your work would actually help toward the advancement of mankind, you would have no business in it. The profession of burglary may be profitable to the burglar, but it certainly is not helping the rest of the world. These two questions should be considered very Carefully in the ehoice of a career. After the first is thought out, try the second. linless that can be answered by "yes," choose another line of work. Choose that which you love and can do well, and always remember that the greatest motto is this: "Service" M. E. C., '25 ......1T0. TOMORROW To-morrowfyou bestow a mist of fear, A veil that hides our future from our eyes. You might bring forth some friends from far or near, But still you might unloose from us their ties. Down in the valley of suspense you dwell Amid more splendors than To-day provides. Of you in stories authors never tell, Though you are faithful as the ocean's tides. Experience, your tried and helpful friend, 'ls sometimes useless, when we quickly trod The Path of Fate. Our life we try to spend That we may grasp the hand of Our One God.

Our programs in which all members participated, have been beneficial. as Well as enjoyable, and our little week-end stag parties have aiforded us much pleasure all thruout the school year. The climax of this splendid year came on June sixth at our annual ban- quet held at the New Kenmore Hotel. Many of the alumni members were present, and We all enjoyed a good old Adelphoi reunion. The following candidates were initiated at the various initia- tions :iBoWen, Cole, Goldring, L. Jordan, W. Jordan, Kingsley, Kroll, Liebiek, Osborn, Saunders, Tracey, White and Spienburg. O,Neil a11d Ramroth supplied us with a great deal of fun when they were initiated on the school excursion. The seniors of Adelphoi heartily wish the soeiety the best of luek for the coming year. R.

ALICE CLEVELAND ISESSTE MclNTOSIl 20 THE CRIMSON AND WHITE CLASS WILL We, the class of 1925, about to enter upon another sphere of our lives, and realizing the many dangers facing us, propitiously make the following bequests: To the Junior Class, our respective places in the Senior study hall with the suggestion that when in a playful mood, they toss about something other than desks. To the Sophomore Class, our surplus wisdom to aid them in their various studies, especially in the translation of Cicero. To the Freshmen Class, the privilege of displaying their superi- ority over the incoming Class of Freshmen. To the Freshman Class to be, a printed placard reminding them that they must not loiter in the halls after one o'clock. To Edgar Bowen, Lyman Jordan's astounding ability to occupy and hold down the hall bench. Though Lyman had the belle from Clarksville with him, Edgar will have his avoirdupois. To Jerry Gritfen, IIammy's argumentative inclination to quibble over half a poi11t. To Charlotte Pauley, Mickey McIIale's ability tthis does not mean that Charlotte needs this bequest-hardlyj. To Kathryn Wilson, Uliobw Baker's aloofness. Dudley Wade is indisputable popularity with Miss Johnson to the masculine member of the Junior Class who is lucky enough to win her gracious smile. To "Al" Rosbrook, Millard Nehemiah is title as advertiser of Hart, Schaffner and Marx. Vera Buttonls preference for English IV last semester and the necessary till conferences connected with it to Miss Alicia Andrews, with the stern command that Alicia be as attentive and interested in the said conferences as t'Buttons" has always been. To the most awkward members of the Freshman Class, Fannie MeDonough's agility for bumping herself, particularly her head. To Charlotte Pauley we leave a nice feathery, soft cushion to be used i11 place of Wilbur in the flivver since Wilbur is going to leave the fold. A To Misses Kay, IIall, McCredie, Cullis and Pauley a time table informing them of the most advantageous hours to be present in the rotunda.

CLARK 16 THE CRIMSON AND WHITE HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1925 The greatest moment, of our lives is fast approaching. We have been looking forward to it for four years: now that we are really here we are appalled by the significance of the occasion antl the fewness of our numbers. We entered ninety strong: we leave, twenty--tive of us, if all are fortunate enough to obtain the favor of the Board of Regents. We are now not quantity, but quality. ,. In the fall of 1921, 90 trembling youngsters crowded into room 302 where they were duly initiated by Miss Cushing into the straight and narrow path belonging exclusively to freshmen. Of course we also made the acquaintance of the other members of the faeulty who came i11 at stated intervals to further bewilder our con- fused brains by an array of classic information. As we left that tirst day we wondered if we 'd ever feel at home. But. the worst was yet to come. Was room B in that funny building over the cafeteria? Where could the 'tbook room" be? Room 258 must be in the basement, and thus it. went. Some of ug were fortunate enough to find the right rooms, others walked straight into the dens of the sophomores. liut finally we became accustomed to the routine, and the end of that first year found us or as many as had survived the terrors of exams, being reluctantly handed over to the tender care of Miss Johnson. Now that we had risen to the elevated position of sophomores, we reorganized our class, which the year before had been organized with Ellamae Allan as president, and elected John Shea. Evidently it was too much for him for he soon left and We elected George 0 'Connor to succeed him. Before the year was over we heartily wished that Caesar had never lived, but most of us succeeded in arriving at Junior Study Hall by the next fall. I-ly this time most of us had been initiated into some society or other, and we were ready to begin the year on even terms with our friends the Seniors, even if Prof. Sayles did mistake Room 304 for freshman study hall. We elected'Frances McDonough president and We could now with all safety take our turn at being dignified. But what would we have done without Cleves' giggle? And Bessie surprised us all by entering upon the scene a la Gloria Swanson. Several: have been the victims of her charms, but we may venture to say that we do not blame them in the least. Our class walked off with both medals for Prize Speaking, Sterling Ferguson and Trudy Hall being the recipients. Then we THE CRIMSON AND Wlll'l'l'I could almost look down on the Seniors, but we mercffully spared them that humiliation. About June tirst a sudden revival ol' interest in the direction of education enabled a goodly numbcr to be trans- ferrdl to Senior Study llafll. The beginning of our Senior year was marked with sadness as well as joy, for during the smnmer Miss l+'rancisa Martinez, our hlrench and Spanish critic, had died. However, while regretting our loss, we were most happy to welcome Miss Alice Hill to the faculty. Being now the most important class in ilfilllli' lligh School, we took an active interest in school affairs, and llramatics Club, French Club and thc three societies were ably carried ou under senior leadership. Frances Mcllonough was unanimously re-elected senior presi- dent, a11d we congratulate her on her success in that office. W'th Helen Hamburger as president of Student Council, and Alice Bessie Cleveland as Editor-in-Chief ot' Crimson and Whitcl, we have truly given of our best to the school activitics. V This history would not be complete without speaking of our English lV teachers. HPhil" Webster and Miss Greenblath carried us safely through Burke and midyears. To Miss Orma Harding and Miss Margaret McGuney go thc credit for our soul-stirring sonnets and our most excellent essays. VVe render them our hearty thanks. We are sorry that the other classes will not have the pleasure oi' having Miss Rice as senior critic. She has been most helpful, and we hope that Milne will be fortunate enough to secure a critic half as fine as Miss Rice. lly May having secured our announcements and pictures we began to realize that it was really almost over. Once again tlaggng interest was restored to more than usual vigor and at last we are ready for our diplomas. To our faculty we extend our appreciation for the co-operatiztn which they have given us. We have finished a four years' course: we are leaving our Alma Mater, and what the future may hold in store 'For us only 'Fimeff and the Class Prophets-can tell.

A SENIOR SCENE One bright and sunny day, a Mann named Jones cranked up his Cleveland Carr, and started out for a ride. Just as he reached the river Jordan, his car stopped. He had to Wade across the river in order to reach a garage at Rosboro. Whilel the car was being tixed, he went i11to a restaurant for something to eat. He was waited on by a girl who looked as tho she had tried to Dyer hair. He ordered some Hamburger steak, some Post-toasties, and a Mclntosh apple. The meal was fine. t'Jes' Schleick mother used to makef' he mur- mured, as he finished. But when he came to pay the bill, he felt he had been Gipp-ed. So he left the restaurant and found his ear all ready, and with a great Conktljin of the horn, he resumed his jour- ney. He went to the Woodward side of the village, where he saw sweet Williaiiis and bachelor Buttons growing under a Wliippltl tree. In spite of the fact that his tire had been punctured by a rusty Spike, he reached his destination on Allen street. He e11tered a house, and passing through the Hall, he went to the Garrett where he began to read the book of Nehemiah. While he was reading, he fell asleep, only to be awakened by the crowing of a CBjreWster. He then went downstairs again, and with Kirkman's soap he washed his hands, which were covered with a CVanjLaer of dust. The water was Colbert he used it just the same, for he was a CMcjHale and hearty fellow. A' B. C17 725 M. N., ,25 THE CRIMSON AND WHITE CLASS STATISTICS Number in class-25.

The next day, with the tirm intention of showing Marcia that somebody else had perfect manners and knew "the sporting thing to do" Ward carried her racquet over and politely inquired how she was. Peggy informed him that Marcia's parents had called for her and taken her to a neighboring village, some twenty miles away. Vtfard looked thoughtful and picking up the racquet which he had carelessly thrown on the hammock, told Peggy goodbye and went home. The truth of the matter was that Wartl's vanity had been hurt. Having been favored by girls, all girls, from the shyest in the kindergarten class to thc reigning belle of the high school, he was a bit inclined to be conceited and spoiled. He had been able to make no impression upon Marcia, to be sure, none of the fellows had, but with his extraordinary good looks, his good playing of all sports .... The next week he drove over to the village where Marcia was staying and after returning her racquet and talking for a while he realized that he was beginning to lose his dislike for her. Somehow she seemed lonelywshe admitted that she had had no other company except Peggy. Their conversation had been interesting, had touched on many topics but never tennis. Much to his surprise Warcl discovered that a very real sense of humor lay beneath the lovely exterior. Although he hinted pointedly for an invitation to come again, she gave no Sign, so he left without the invitation but with a tennis racquet marked M. M. riding peacefully on the back seat of the car. The next week he returned the racquet again and was delighted by the appreciative gleam in Marcia's eyes and the sudden trem- bling of her mouth. Once more Marcia ignored the hints for a hoped for invitation and once more Ward left-with the racquet grasped firmly in one hand in plain sight of an interested pair of gray eyes. And still the next- week he came back, he was more than ordi- narily interested--he was fascinated and curious. He felt there was something behind the cool composure Hlld haughtiness, something unthought of-something-something shy! -- in THE CRIMSON AND WHITE 25 t The next week she took the racquet from him and took it in the house. Again they spent an interesting afternoon and when he was ready to go home he looked at her despairingly, "Marcia, Where's the racquet?l' Marcia laughed, 4'Wliy the racquet?', she asked quite simply. t'Well, I've got to have some excuse haven't I? Particularly when I don 't get any invitations." tilts rather a bulky excuse, isn't it?'l she asked sweetly and then, 'ttell me, do you like lavendar?', Ward squinted his eyes speculatively and gazed at the slender simplicity of the lavendar linen frock, at the glorious blue-blackness of her hair, at her wide gray eyes and out of the very middle of his heart he answered her, "You bet I do." He was a bit puzzled, why should she care whether he liked lavendar or not? Despite his atrociously open hints for an invita- tion she did not issue one-at least not verbally but when he said good-bye, she held out her hand in a surprisingly friendly gesture and smiled and was gone before he could say more tha11 a short "good-bye" but at his feet lay a small square of linen faintly sug- gesting perfume-and it was lavendar. As the summer went on they became wonderful friends but neither alluded to the tennis match until one day when they were out in her canoe. Ward leaned forward eagerly, "Say Marcia, aren't you glad we played tennis that day? If We hadn't, and if you hadnlt fallen, and I hadn't returned your racquet in i'Three times" interrupted the girl calmly. t'Well, golly, you wouldn't help a fellow along and over at Peg's you acted as if I bored you." "You did, at Peg's" the girl announced frankly, "as for that tennis, I was between the devil and the deep blue sea. You see I knew you all didn 't like me and if you won why they might not hate me quite so much and if I won I'd show lem that you Weren't the only one in the Wide universe who could play, anyway my pride was up 'cause you looked so awfully confidentf' 'tSay, what was the score? It might have been a love set for all I know." t'It was four-two your favor but I'm going to beat you some day." il ill ik if ii SF Sl! if 26 THE CRIMSON AND WHl'l'E Years later a woman stood beside an old trunk full of school pennants and school girl relics, looking down at a racquet in her hand, lovingly l1er slim lingers caressed the initials and traced languidly M.

B., '25 01i i MINE VIOLIN The big tower clock chimed the hour of nine The guests at Count Henry's suddenly became very quiet and expectant, all eyes turned toward the door. Then appeared a man, handsome still though growing old, rather tall and a little bent, but from beneath the gray hair and shaggy brows shone bright, soulful, eyes. A whisper shpedraround the room, and again the silence became intense. The Master bowedlow tightened a string on his violin, nodded to his accompanist, and began to play, first the great classics and then the lighter favorites of the people. The applause was loud and long, hut at last the Master held up his hand, a slim, nervous-looking hand and motioned for silence. HMine friends," hc said, with his calm smile, HMine friends, I thank you for this. Now I shallplay for you one of mine own com- positions. After that I shall improvise, perhaps one dance, perhaps one dream, perhaps,-perhaps even one life. I cannot tell, only mine violin can say." Again the master began to play, a great Preludium, majestic and finally a bit pensive. A sudden gust of wind extinguished the candles, and a shutter blew open, letting one full ray of moonlight fall on the Master. The violin danced and sang for the Master was in agreat field of beautiful flowers. The sky was very blue . . . He danced for the ecstatic joy of it . . . Clouds arose, thunder, lightning flashes . . . IIe had to run for shelter. Snap! went a string. A No one noticed that the accompanist wasno longer playing but sat with bowed head over the faintly showing keys. .ii'. . Suddenly the Master was old and weak. fi. . He sobbed, and THE CRIMSON AND WHITE 27 kept on hurrying as if from danger as well as storm. Snap! The face of the Master was filled with awe, but he played on: he could not stop. Ah! at last. he had reaehed the door of the little wayside ehapel. As he crossed the threshold leaving behind him danger and darkness for dim light and solemn beauty, a sigh and a long sob swept through the audience .... The Master went. down the aisle, tottering, almost falling, and . . . Snap! The Masters counte- nance was now filled with horror .... He rose to his knees with an effort .... Part of the story seemed gone, silent because of broken strings .... With a last agonizing effort the Master crawled to the steps of the sanctuary and, crossing himself, began to pray, sobbing .... Snap! The Master's head droopedg there were tears on his cheeks. Mute, awestruck, he touched the broken strings. Stepping back toward the window into the full light he held out. his violin. "Mine friends," he sobbed, his voice breaking, 'tMine friends, I have played one life,-and one great mystery, Death. Mine strength is failing me, broken strings mean-Death! But and I am happy, for it is that I reached the sanctuary. And mine violin! Ah, dear God," he cried in a strained, heart-rending voice, Ulf I could only take the soul of mine violin with me. I have lived mine life, I have loved and cared for mine violin, it is mine own child." Ile took it in his arms, like a baby. HYes," he spoke very quietly now, and his face was touched with the sublimity given by a pure life. "Yes, I have lived mine life, and now, now ,... I . . . The Master swayed slightly. His lips moved, but no one heard his words. The wind suddenly blew the shutter closed, excluding the moonlight. The awed and waiting group of people hastened to re- light the candles, and in the noise and rush no one heard a splinter- ing, crushing sound. It was done in a moment, Zlllll the people turned to look at the Master. There he lay in a heap on the Hoor, under him his broken violin, while on his face was a radiant smile. Ile had told his story: he had reached the sanctuary.

The School Reeep- tion was unusually well attended and more money was made by the Q. 'l'. S. A. than was required for the Scholarship. The Student, Council has standardized the school rings and pins by adopting a school seal. The Crimson and Whites have been unusually good this year and we take especial pride in presenting this year book which we people on the Crimson and VVhite board have worked hard in preparing. The Crimson and White board awarded the live dollar gold piece l'or the best short story to Barbara Baker. lSarbara's literary ability is shown in her story 4'The Love Set."

Another good deed of the Student Council was to propose donating 28100 to the State College Dormitory Fund. This money has been given as a gift from Milne High School. We feel there is no better cause for which we can spendour money. It is the hope of the Student Council members of this year, that the student body will support the Student Council next year as well as they have done during 1924-25. FRANCES D. MCDONOUGH, QUIN Norms We have had a very successful year and the programs have been more interesting' and unusual than previously. Our vice-presi- dent, Meredith Winnie, has been the originator of these unique affairs. The unusually large number of new members has proved untrue the old-time proverb, HQuality and not quantity counts" in that they are both quality and quantity. They have cooperated most admirably and their dance on Girl 's Day was very effective. 36 'l'IllG CRIMSON AND Wlll'l'lC Elections for the oflieers of the next term will take place soon and we sincerely hope that the new athninistration will have as satislfae' tory cooperation of the nienihers the present one has hall. G. W., '25 SIGMA NOTES Another year has passed for Sigma. Somehow We feel that it has been eventful in every respect. Bertha Post, our president of the past year, has managed our activities to the utmost of her ability with the able cooperation of the Sigma girls. As this goes to press We are planning our last soeial activity, an outing to VVarner's Lake by bus. As yet the elections for next year have 11ot taken place, but we wish the new officers the best. of luck and hope that they will have as successful terms as the present oflicers and the many past officers uho have eontributell so much to Zeta Sigma and Milne.

I think you are in lovewith love. It is very foolish and unwise for your friends to act so and break up your companion- ship with this young man. There is nothing so beautiful as a pure friendship.

Now, dear Peggy Page, I love this young man better than life itself. What can I do to encourage this love. FRANCES Moll. Frances Moll.: The best- way to encourage love, my dear, is to act natural and, above all, to be yourself. lf you do this I am sure it will make. it easier for him to declare his love. law? Dear Peggy Page: There is a young man in the school I attend named Warren B. I do not love him but he forces his attentions upon me. Please tell me how I can stop him. CRAUF NV T ' .J J . Grace W.: If this young man forces his attentions upon you he is paying a tribute to your charm and doubtlessly loves you. If he is a young man of clean habits, my dear, I should advise that you cultivate a friendship with him, putting aside all thought of love. l0T,A Dear Miss Page: I am a girl in my teens and am very much in love with a young man named W'ilbur Van A. Ile is going away to a military camp this summer. Now, dear Peggy Page, I know you will not agree with me, but wouldnlt it be correct to visit him. CHARLOTTE P. Charlotte P.: It would most certainly be incorrect and very unwise. There is a time in all our lives when We must part from our loved ones, and on these occasions we must not act irrationally. Then too, dear, when this young man comes back he will appreciate you more and love you more dearly. .-70.1.44- Dear Peggy Page: I am deeply in love with a young man named Russell J. Altho We are not engaged there has been an understanding between us. He has asked me not to go to dances with other boys, but continues to go out with other girls. What can h MARlON Moll. Marion Mcll.: If there has been an "understanding" this I do to hold his love? young man ought to comply with its terms. A man who thus breaks his honor and word is not worthy of further thought. You can not hold a man's love, my dear, by appeal, but must make yourself alluring and unattainable. It is man 's nature to want what he can't get. If he thinks he cannot get you he will want you. To hold a man 's love never profess love for him. 42 THE CRIMSON AND VVHITE Dear Miss Page: I am a girl eighteen years old and am in love with a young man some years my senior named Morey W.

Please tell me how I can continue this friendship u11der these terms Without offending him. HELEN II. Helen H.: You must remember, my dear, that your parents have your interests at heart. Ask them to invite this young man to your house. They may thus form a better opinion of him.
