Consequently, there iis much intensive studying going on. 'i he girls are all practically exhausted rt the end of each strenuous day, and are revived only by the beautiful serenades which float upon the air about ten o'clock at night. Among tlie songs rendered, Ole Missouri Had a Mule , is- especially effective. ' FACULTY NOTES. Mrs. Pike took dinner at the new dormitory last Sunday. President Pike and Dr. Morgan were both out of town last Week end. Dr. Morgan to fill his appointment at NIa'nut Grove and Mr. Pike to supply in Rev. Huckell at West Plains. Mr. Pike reports evidences of increasng interest in the school in various places. 1' , We have all been enjoying our school orchestra . which under the direction of Miss White, has led the singing in several chapel services lately.

Iirst of all a place to serve while training for greater Christian service. Serving nayfellow students I can serve Christ. -I How Cant I Serve? By being in class on time, 'knowing my lesson and always willing to help others. Holding active membership in all of the dffferent organizations is worth much to any student, 'though I think' some fail to realize it. Again I say S. W. B.

In spite of the fact that no one' left the dormitory Wednesday night, Hallowe'en was celebrated in true fashion by the girls. Even before seven o'clock white robed figures were gliding noiselessly about the sec- ond and third floors, and lights mys- teriously Hashed out. After the ghosts had been forcefully returned to their rooms, the real fun began. Water was used freely, such articles as bed slats, co1nbs,ibrushes, pictures, shoes and other articles of clothing vanished into their air. One girl found her bed so tightly sewed to- gether she had to pry it open with a nail file. Two of the girls were lock- ed out on the porch, while various others played havoc in their rooms. 'lhe girls soon had done all the mis- chief they could think of, and by 10:30 all were in bed, tired but happy. We are sorry to report that Mother Thomas is quite ill at this time. Al- though she does not seem to be im- proving very rapidly. We all are wishing her a speedy recovery.

' It seems to me that the keynote Of Yellowstone Park scenery is vastness and native granduer. Everything, except the roads and the big, com- fOrtab'e, hotels and camps, 'is main- tained in a primenal state-just, I like to think, as God put it there. As we entered the park from the east through Cody, Wyoming, we drove all morning through the ever- changing panorama of the Arkansas River Canyong at first hugging the cliffs as a narrow and precipitous road with a. step chasm and the roaring river below, then out into the more open places where the shifting lights and shadows of a summer day paint- ed in gorgeous colors the surround'ng mountains and streams. Later we drove for many miles through dence and ancient pine forests part of the time around the edge of the lake where we saw a glorious moon-mise the first night. A There are many animals in the park, still in the wild state. We were able to feed two bears, and took a picture of one as well as of a beau- tiful brown deer. O There are many buffalo, beavers, parcupene and snow- shoe rabbits whose bushy white hind legs truly suggest their name. The geysers in the park are many and varied from the Dragon's mouth which constantly belches forth muddy water, to the stately Old Faithful 4 E l i l 1 I l 4 i POLK g COUNTY BANK Bolivar, Missouri In the Public Service Since 187 2. l J.M.DUNNEGAN,CwmEr .. qw H...

Near the geysers are the terraces, beautifully colored limestone formations caused by the action of the water. The most inspiring section of the park, it seems to me is the Yellow- stone Canyon where I believe one could just stand speechless forever, and drink in the vastness and color, and space of it all. From artist'S point not only the canyon but two magnificent waterfalls can be seen. This is truly a wonderful place, and it is not surprising at all that everv day during the open season hundreds of eager and enthusiastic visitors enter its gates. , Q.- , The college orchestra had just finished playing and Ralph Palmer sank pespiring into his seat.

The Mozarkian Staff is elected and entered into the task with zeal. Since it seems to be the will of the majority that the school should have both a pa- per and an annual the Monitor wishes to retract the statements made in last issue. The new staff members are whole-heartedly in favor of the Moz- arkian and herewith ofer their sup- port in every way possible. We be- lieve that the growth of the school has madepossible the support of both an annual and a paper and we know that such will act in favor of further growth. We are for a greater S. W. B.

S By Alma West. , On request of the editor, I shall continue the account of my vacation last summer with a few remarks about California. ' This much talked of locality is truly a beautiful place, a natural pleasure land. There are flowers in abundance, beautiful homes, shaded drives, fertile valleys of fruit orchards or vegetable and grain farms, lovely trails into the mountains and along the ocean, or crowded beaches and parks and museum where one mingles with many other pleasure seekers. g S' ' ' ' F ' f lx - C - f -f S , C 'll F , G.

Y Come to I One of the most complete stocks 5 . in Southwest Missouri. l Ross Studlo We appreciate your trade. We Strive to please. One of the trips we particularly en- joyed was a 300-mile drive down the coast from Los Angeles, through ,beautiful Tarry Pines and San Diego, I and into Old Mexico and Tia Juana, the Monte Carlo of America. Another trip was out from Catalina Island in glass-bottomed boats, which enabled us to see real forests of sea weed and variously colored fishes. And then there were trips up into the moun- tains, to the picture studios, through the redwood forests and to the mus- eums at Los Angeles and San Fran- cisco. The two best plays we saw were The Covered Wagon nad The Pilgrimage Play or the American passion play which was given in an open .air theatre among the hills of Hollywood. There are surely many opportuni- ties for pleasure in California. Nearly, if not quite, every citizen is a booster and they see no flaws-but no- one there succeeded in convincing me that Missouri is not just as good as Cali- fornia, at least money lasts longer here and people are not so tempted to see nothing in life but a good time. Perhaps their carefree spirit is nearer right than taking things so seriously as we do but at least it seems .to me that there is that principal difference. - . .. 1.--.U.-, l.-,- A free translation of social rules. fGirls' Dormitoryj Contributed. ,.
