Mr. Rocks’ intellectual discussions at the lunch table with some of his denser students . . . Miss Stewart, a fixed stare on her face, being hounded by wild-eyed juniors and seniors waving overdue term papers... Miss Swayze and Miss Nottbohm frantically getting costumes ready the night before the play (with results later proved disastrous) . . . Miss Rowley’s dinner party for the new freshmen last fall . . . Miss Blodgett smiling bravely at the junior Virgil class after the Latin Christmas chapel . . . The office staff continually running around the school trying to track down the more popular Northropites with messages from their respective friends at Blake. In view of all these things, we would like to extend our heartiest thanks to the faculty and the office staff for putting up with all of us so patiently. 6 Board of Trustees Mr. Sewall D.

Long In-fore other seniors even think of getting up, Lyn, with her perfect attendance record since ninth grade, is the first to brave the chaos of the eight-o-five Senior Room. We are very proud to claim for the class of '53 this talented girl. W ith her booming alto, she was our mainstay of the Hallelujah Chorus. Her excellent leadership as co-president of the Drama club is the culmination of the leading roles she has had in both her sophomore and junior years, not to mention her senior year. We know that the I will soon profit from her dramatic ability. In spite of all this Lyn has managed to consistently stay on first list, much to the envy of her fellow seniors. This senior also has many outside activities. She holds an important role in her young people's group and she has worked for the Volunteer Service Bureau by supervising a children's playground. But Lyn is most rememliered, even l;v casual acquaintances, as a very friendly girl.

Xorthrop will never forget the great philanthropist of the class of 1953; her contributions of salamanders and preserved ap|x ndix to the science department were invaluable. Hut “Hardknocks has had her crushing blows too. once when confronted with the results of her third senior picture retakes and again u| on discovering that her chemistry tutor was married. She takes them all in stride (or rather Itounds) and can always find a minute to console and holster the morale of her maddened, grieving classmates.

So far only one of her young men has been able to get her away from her four footed friends, though. Her art talents are always being called upon for a jwster or a dog show program. As art editor of the Taller she has contributed much to its publication. In athletics a team isn’t a team without coordinated Margie. Her numerous abilities have been put to good ( ?) use ever since Marj entered WC.S. in the sixth grade. Whatever college gets Marj is getting a small girl, hut she i packed with dynamite!

As Vice President of the Choir, Kuthie was quite disappointed one afternoon when she was informed that she alone could not play, direct, and sing for the Choir during Miss Indiliar’s absence. One of Blake’s most vigorous cheerleaders, Kuthie was unfailingly present at every game. Outside of school she may l e found either out West during the summer or atop some mountain, skiing. (This sj ort. incidentally, takes precedence, in winter, above all others.) Kuthie has a serious side, as proved by her selection as a memlxT of the School Procedure Committee.

They know that unpredictable Gretch has arrived, eager to entertain us in our daily slump with one of her many moods. Her yearly efforts on the Taller, this year as co-lay-out and makeup editor, have helped much with this difficult task. We are all envious of Gretchen’s weaving and art talents, not to mention her public shaking. which was put to use every year in our Christmas program. We have found throughout our many years at N.C.S. that there is never a quiet moment in one of her classes. With her understanding of people and lively personality Gretch-en is bound to make a hit wherever she goes.

Ann is the frustrated knitter's friend, always seen curled up on the couch picking up lost stitches and untwisting tangled bobbins. During rehearsals of Berkeley Square last year Chamber was usually seen with her trusty measuring tape and faithful scissors measuring people and sewing and ripping frantically. “But, Miss Swayze, what is an inseam? This mystery was never solved, but Ann reached her goal this year—a non costume play. Being secretary of School Procedure, she is faced with the job of taking notes while trying to listen to arguments pro and con on our wrongdoings. Aside from all her school activities Ann finds time each Sunday to attend meetings of the Voung People’s group at St. Paul's Church, where this year she is secretary. Wc will be surprised if Ann gets through this year without living wrecked either by writer's cramp or the wounds that Christopher and his brother inflict upon her.

Ann. alias “Chasev. has put her Scotch blood to use in her job as treasurer of the Public Relations committee; but we suspect that when graduation day comes she will abscond with the funds and secretly slip off to Mexico.

Mary's great interest and amazing ability in music have greatly influenced her activities at Northrop. She has been a member of the Senior Choir since her sophomore year, and this year she was unanimously elected President of the choir. Last year she helped organize and was a member of the double quartet. The class is lucky to have had this beauty since seventh grade, for who else would have been their model? Her looks and sparking personality also brought her the honor of l� eing a Blake Homecoming attendant and cheerleader for two years. With all these activities Fuller, to the envy of her classmates, has been able to maintain a good scholastic average throughout high school. Good luck, Fuller.

About ten o'clock we may see a rather bleary eyed figure lifting herself painfully over each well worn step in the lower ball. The open house the night In-fore was just too much. We know well Judy’s weakness for parties though, so after we learn all the harrowing details, we settle back down into the routine with a sigh. The hours pass and the next morning arrives. A soft snow is falling. Gamble? Over the hectic confusion someone yells that Judy’s not coming—afraid of a blizzard. Although Judy loves school athletics—she is our volley-ball captain -she is happiest during the summer living at Minnetonka, whipping around in her speedboat and getting a suntan.

The senior class could not have survived without Kenney’s mischievous hand to guide it. One of the first of our clas to enter Northrop, Kenney’s dramatic and singing ability was revealed when she was encouraged to sing “Old Man River,” black face and all; the rest of her friends were still struggling through Music I. liver since that time Kenney has had to do an annual re-peat performance, and her voice has contributed faithfully to the various Choir programs. “Cloe’s talents are many. She has led the school in past years with a top score in the Time Current Events Tests and la t year received the Nellie Atwater Friendliness Award, which was more than earned.

As we see her sail serenely down the hall we know we lesser mortals can relax because she has things under control. This senior class has been fortunate in having her imperturbable dignity to cloak our sometimes unseemly behavior from faculty and students. Sue has tried all year to guide our class into being an example for the rest of the school, but. as Miss Stewart will testify, she has had too little cooperation from us. W e hope the Methodist l of Lifer’s are more manageable. Sue’s abilities are unlimited and only the too few hours in the day keep her from doing more. She has run the Northrop League meetings seriously and firmly. On the other hand she is one of the few sailors on Minnetonka who can successfully capsize her boat in everv race she enters. Sue has also faithfully picked up the senior room at 3:35 —not that it was her job. but out of desperation and because she dearly loves everything in its proper place.

Class of 1956 It was evident from the start of the school year that the ninth grade was a class that firmly believed in action. By electing Lyn Nesbitt as president and Cathy Harrison as secretary, they made an auspicious beginning, to be sure. They continued by avidly supporting the Clothes Drive for the Indians. At Christmas they sent appetizing fowl and presents to the Deaf and Dumb Institution at Faribault. Athletic ability is also a prominent characteristic of the class. They made an excellent showing in their first year of Upper School competition and added many valuable players to the varsity teams. Their transformation of the Crosby room into an underwater wonderland at the time of their dance, Sea Tango, was as unbelievable as was the success of the dance.

They indicated their abilities along this line early in the year at the “Old Girl's Party for the New when they gave a disc jockey skit which ended with a song condemning homework. Not content t spend all their time in our hallowed halls, these brave souls made a rigorous trip to Sibley House at Men-dota and came back with a fine knowledge of Minnesota history. A library skit during hookweek for the Lower School, trimming the Crosby room Christmas tree, giving chapel, and a square dance (with boys!) have all taxed, but not reduced, the energy of the eighth graders.

With Miss Ellin-wood as their advisor and Kate Lowry as their president, they have had a very busy year. They have particularly enjoyed their parties with their seniors which began with the senior picnic in the fall. They took eight prizes in the annual Dog Show; one of them being a first prize. As in past years, the seventh grade was occupied during Christmas time collecting old toys for settlement houses in Minneapolis to make Christmas a little brighter for children less fortunate than they. On Lincoln’s birthday each girl invited a guest to visit the school and to spend part of the afternoon skating. The girls enjoyed this new experience and proved to Ik excellent hostesses.

They organized and helped put out the Twcencr Times. Through the Red Cross they helped to fill gift boxes and made mats and favors for the trays of hospital patients. The sixth graders conducted Lower School chapel several times and in addition to the Fathers and Daughters Banquet they entertained their fathers at luncheon on visiting day. In order to learn more alxiut the city they took a tour of the library. The Lower School Program and closing chapel, which were the high points of the year, completed their sixth grade career.

They met every week to discuss manners, school behavior and relationships between one another, choosing new officers every two weeks. Through these meetings they learned much about democratic behavior in our society. In January they gave a lunch for their fathers, and presented a Social Studies Review.

They composed original poems and drew pictures of their mothers to he displayed on the blackboard. Then they studied Thanksgiving and made potato turkeys for the Thanksgiving table. At Christinas they decorated their room with a gay mural and made calendars for the teachers and office staff. In science the third graders learned about seasonal changes and clothing. When they finished this they dyed some fabrics with commercial dye. Several girl planned, wrote, and gave a puppet show. During the winter, also, they made another mural for the lack of the room, this time a snow scene.

They learned about birds and animals in the winter from their reading and drew pictures of them. After Christinas they helped the Red Cross by making stuffed toys for one of the hospitals. They made dishes, tablecloths and a stove to furnish the home of the first grade doll. Victoria, while they were studying about the home and family. During the year they saw science movies and conducted some experiments with water, snow and ice.

They built a post office and grocery store out of blocks and apple crates to learn how these services contribute to the life of the community. At Christmas they gave a program for their parents and served refreshments after the entertainment. They also made several science experiments to see how water evaporates and what interesting things can he done with a magnet. During the latter part of the year they participated in a reading readiness course which was conducted like an interesting game. All in all it has been a very profitable and informative year for the kindergarten. 69 Reflections of Activities The fight for warm weather uniforms . . . the famous Choral Christmas tree ... the absence of a blue moon at the League Dance . . . the camel in the upper hall (a poster for posture week) . . . the threats in Chapel to the people who wouldn’t get ads . . . the spur of the moment School Procedure meetings . . . the missing library books . . . the interclass games, with the Class of 53 always victorious, the freshmen always making a good showing, and the juniors shrugging it off with, “Oh well, wc have the brain to make up for it. ... the famous day HOYS were entertained at Council . . . the long rehearsals for the Drama Club play with such good results . . . all the activities in which we were so active and which were so successful this year. 70 Front Row: S.

The officers of this group are the League president, who is a senior, the four vice-presidents, who head Northrop student organizations, two treasurers elected from the junior class, the secretary, who is a sophomore, the class presidents of grades seven through eleven, and an additional representative from both the sophomore and junior classes. The council is the governing body of the school and has jurisdiction over all other student organizations. The school year has been One of innovations for the council. Weekly meetings were held and the League secretary read the minutes of the Council meetings to the entire school every Friday morning in chapel. Aside from handling the routine problems that have come up, the Council feels that one of its biggest achievements has been in joining the Minnesota Association of Student Councils and sending delegates to the State Convention of the Association. Many helpful suggestions on student government were gleaned by our delegates, and we hoj c that in the future our council may Income more closely allied with similar bodies throughout the state. Under the able leadership of Sue Leek and with Mr. Reed's and Miss Gray's patient advice, this has been a truly progressive year for the League Council. 7.1 Senior School Procedure Front Row: S.

Kennedy School Procedure The School Procedure Committee is the nearest thing to a police force at Xorthrop. It enforces the school's few rules when necessary and makes new rules subject to approval by the Council, when they are deemed necessary. Its members take the lead in upholding the honor system, and the silence spreading through the chapel lines can usually be traced to a School Procedure member. The committee is in charge of the League Study Hall supervisors, the tardy and penalty hall lists, and all disciplinary matters outside of actual classes. These duties have been efficiently executed by Kit Crosby and her committee this year. As with all committees, there i- a great deal of controversy and discussion in the School Procedure meetings, but. unlike some committees, when the members file out, we know something for the welfare of the school has U-en accomplished.

The Community Chest Drive, which was the first project of the year, turned out to he a huge success, culminating in the annual Christmas Bazaar. The committee was able to contribute to the March of Dimes and the Red Cross. Again this year a Scholarship was sent to an Kdison girl. Various memlx-rs of the committee made recess snacks available by their food sales three times a week. The entire school also enjoyed knitting squares for an afghan. The Junior Public Relations Committee staged a l ook drive at Christmas, in order to send lx� oks to the various Indian reservations throughout the state. This committee also sponsored the annual Dog Show and the money from this was contributed to the Community Chest Drive. Along with these individual enterprises, the committee, with Gretchen Boehrer as chairman, cooperated very well with the senior committee. Junior Front Row: C. Colwell J. Randall J. Nash C. Gage M.

They were Jeannv and Frank Mason and Marilyn and Bobby Winters. They lived about two miles from Berryville and were now going there to ask for tricks or treats at the houses. It was beginning to get dark quite rapidly. “I know a shortcut!” cried Bobby. “We can go across that meadow and it will cut otT al out half a mile. You’ll have to lift up your sheets though, the grass is awfully high.” They managed to cross the meadow and had started down the dirt road when they saw a driveway leading into the woods. • ()h, boy!” declared Frank. “Here’s our first house, let’s go and ask for some treats.” “I don’t know if we should.” hesitated Marilyn. “It’s sort of dark out already.” “What’s the matter, afraid of the dark?” laughed Bobby. So they walked up the driveway until they came to the house. It was all dark inside, hut they decided they would ring the doorbell. They rang it a few times and when no one came they decided to try the door. “Gosh it’s dark in there, whispered Jimmy. They stepped inside and laughed because they all looked just like ghosts as they were supposed to. “Let’s look around,” suggested Frank, who loved to do daring things. “But how can we see anything, it’s all dark. stated Jeanny. They decided they would just stick together and then they wouldn’t lose each other. So they crept through the house together, jumping at every noise they heard. They were coming along fine until Jeanny noticed suddenly that there were live-ghosts in the room. The other ghosts seemed to notice that loo, because they all stood as if they were frozen to the fitxjr. Then they made a dash for the door at the same time. They managed to squeeze through all together and when they had done that, they ran off in all different directions, stumbling over chairs on the way. Jeanny had stumbled out the door and behind a big chair. She wasn’t there for long, though, because at that moment another ghost decided to go behind the chair too. They both decided they had In-tter run, when a third ghost entered the room. This went on for quite a while until seven ghosts found themselves trapped in one room and Frank decided to put an end to all this nonsense and turned on a light. The ghosts threw off their sheets and there stood. Jeanny. Bobby, Marilyn. Frank and three other children, all of whom were friends. “What are you doing here? Jeanny asked the other three children. “Why we were just exploring this house. one of them answered. How funny.” laugher! Jeanny, that’s just what we were doing. So together they all walked down the road to Berryville. convinced that there was no such thing as a ghost.

MENTION POETRY LOWER SCHOOL KATHY KXUDSON The Bracelet The young man stood by the window, staring off into space. The last rays of the sun flooded his figure in a soft light and made his short white medic’s coat gleam with an unnatural brightness. In his hands he held a small metal bracelet, the type that small hoys often fashion crudely out of tin. But he wasn’t thinking about the bracelet. He was looking back fifteen years, seeing a tiny, three room log cabin; and l ehind it, a small boy seated on a log. Why, it was so real he could almost hear voices . . . Jeremiah! Jeremiah Clarke, you come here this instant! We can’t wait all day, you know,” a woman’s voice was heard saying sharply from inside the cabin. “Coming, ma,” the small hoy answered. He put away the knife he had been using and gazed proudly at his handiwork. “Why,” he thought, “it’s most as good as Uncle Kit’s.” He placed the small tin bracelet on his thin wrist. It was so big it almost slipped off, hut he didn’t notice that as he gazed admiringly at the large initials J.C. he had so laboriously carved into the metal. He was glad he had finished it this morning. because it had helped to keep his mind off 91 today’s trip. His brothers and sisters had been talking constantly about it ever since Father had told them they could go to Mankato for the hangings. He had tried to act brave and talk big like his brothers, but deep down he was scared. He had been scared ever since the massacre when everyone had rushed around so madly even though no Indians had come within ten miles of them. His family all said they hated the Indians and were very excited about seeing them get their deserts.” but Jeremiah didn't like to hear of people dying whether they deserved it or not. He wondered if he would have the courage to watch it all or if lie would get sick when the traps were sprung. However, he resolutely put such thoughts out of his mind and began gathering the logs to carry them into the cabin. They would Ik- leaving soon, and he hadn't finished his chores yet. The wagon lurched along the rutty road and sent up a choking cloud of dust. Jeremiah was very proud that his father had let him drive, and he sat up straight on the seat. He could hear his father and their neighbor. Mr. Randolph, talking as they plodded along next to him. “It's going to be a good show, his father was saving, “but I hope it doesn’t get out of hand. “Oh, I wouldn't worry too much, Clarke. There'll be plenty of soldiers there to oversee things.” “You never can tell what jK-ople will do though. There was plenty of talk alxmt lynching in the village yesterday. Some of the victims' families are awfully fired up. “I can’t say as I blame them either.” said Mr. Randolph. If those dirty redskins had touched my family I’d sure be blood toiling for revenge. “They should Ik- hanging the whole four hundred instead of a measly thirtv-eight. agreed Jeremiah’s father. Jeremiah had been secretly feeling sorry for the Indians ever since he had heard Bishop Whipple tell of their plight. He thought the Bishop had Ikc-u wonderful to go to Washington to see President Lincoln and save all those lives. He knew that the feeling against the Indians was at a raging peak and wondered if there would Ik- any trouble. They’d been driving since six o’clock and by the looks of the sun it was about nine now. Jeremiah was tired. His arms ached from holding the reins and the dust was filling hi-throat so that he coughed chokingly. They were nearing Mankato now and the road was getting crowded. Jeremiah’s stomach was more and more queasy. There was a mounting feeling of excitement in the air. People were in a strange mood. The raging anger that had dominated their existence ever since the massacre was finally being given an outlet. Everyone's eyes held a savage look that frightened Jeremiah. As they entered the town, Jeremiah’s father took over the reins and guided the wagon to a comparatively quiet spot off the main street. “Remember now, he admonished his family, “if we're separated we’ll meet back here at the wagon. The streets were seething with people. Tin-moment that Jeremiah alighted from his perch he felt swept along by the madness of it. He couldn't understand what was happening, but he couldn't stop himself from joining the mad shouting throng. He followed the crowd down the main street. He seemed caught up in a rushing tide that carried him. powerless, along. When he finally found himself standing still, he was pressed against the wall of a wooden building, lie was so crushed in the crowd that lie couldn't see or move. Some people next to him were discussing the situation. “They’re in that building, aren't they?” “Yes, but there are so many soldiers around you can't get near the door. “What’re they doing? “I don't know for sure, but I saw a bunch of important looking people go in a while ago.” So the condemned were within these walls, probably right next to him. Suddenly he had to get away, to Ik- some place alone. He pushed through the crowd and ran blindly down the street. There was a big hill by the station oil the other side of town. From the top one could sec clearly the huge square platform with the thirty-eight nooses hanging neatly around the edge. “I'll watch it from here, thought Jeremiah as he threw himself panting on the ground. The hill afforded a view of all the town. He watched the throng milling around the makeshift j?il. In front of the doors a commotion was arising. Faintly Jeremiah could hear the shouts c.f the aroused men. Let us in!” “Hanging’s too good for them dirty redskins ! Jeremiah could see soldiers in blue coats rushing here and there endeavoring to calm the nun. Tension was at its highest. A mad 92 frenzy seemed to liave taken hold of the people, driving out of their minds all sense of sanity and leaving only mad savagery and a bitter thirst for revenge. Suddenly, from inside the building, came the beating of a drum. A wailing chant arose, keeping time to the measured lx-ating. I he Indians were chanting their death song. I he sound had an immediate effect on the people. They stopped shouting and stood silent, listening to the fearful chant. Then, as if they were controlled by one mind, they turned and walked silently down to the scaffold. Jeremiah felt his hands get icy and the sweat break out on his brow. This was it! In another few minutes thirty-eight men would die before his eyes. He wanted to run but his legs seemed frozen. A bugle sounded through the still air. Slowly the doors opened and a row of soldiers filed out. The drums began again and the wailing rose to surround Jeremiah where he lay on the hill. After the soldiers came two priests and some men in civilian clothes. Then came the Indians. The only sounds were the drums, the wailing chant, and the soft shuffle of moccasined feet. The prisoners were dressed in long buffalo rolx s and tight buckskin pants reaching to their ankles. They walked proudly, chanting their dreadful noise as they came. Suddenly Jeremiah started. That big one, the one at the end. Why he knew him. He’d recognize those shoulders anywhere. It was Red Fox. the big Indian whom he'd seen at Elysian's General Store. The one that once gave him a piece of maple sugar. Surely he couldn't lx included among the doomed. Hut there he was. marching down the street, singing at the top of his voice. Jeremiah was t x stunned to speak. He hadn't the courage left to move. The prisoners filed up onto the platform, drums all the while heating out their fateful message. Jeremiah couldn't keep his horror struck eyes off Red Fox. He thought he had never seen anyone so brave. The others were chanting nervously, but he stood as still as a statue. Ins proud head held high. Jeremiah knew the Indian was taunting his captors, hut he could not help feeling great admiration for a man who could face death so fearlessly. Blue-coated guards stepped up at a signal and tied hands and feet. Black hoods were fastened over the heads of the doomed. Frozen, Jedemiah watched as the big man's turn came. A startled “oh” went through the crowd, their first sound since the prisoners' appearance. Red Fox had refused the hood. He would meet his doom with his eyes open. “Ready,” shouted the commander! “One,” tension was mounting, “two, all held their breath, “three! “Bang went the scaffold, ami thirty-eight bodies turned slowly at the ends of their ropes. Xo, thirty-seven. The big Indian had fallen through and lay motionless, his neck twisted grotesquely. A soldier ran up and hoisted the lifeless body again to the rope. Suddenly Jeremiah felt very weak. His bones seemed turned to water. He turned his head to the side and was sick. When it was over, the town regained its festive mood. People shouted gaily in the streets, almost as if they were trying to forget what had happened. Jeremiah sat with his brothers listening to the talk of the men. “That wailing was what got me,” one man declared. You'd think they were wild banshees. “Did you notice that big guy? said another. It didn't seem to faze him at all. I've never seen anyone so calm in my life. Everyone else seemed impressed by Red Fox, too. Jeremiah couldn't get the sight of his face out of his mind. He kept seeing those fiery eyes and that bitter sneer. He got up and wandered down the street. As he came around a corner he saw that the soldiers were just finishing removing the Ixxlies. A strange curiosity t x k hold of him and he followed the jouncing cart overflowing with their horrible burden. He didn’t want to view the gruesome sight, but he kept following, almost as though he had no control over his limbs. The carts wound rattlingly through the dark streets. When they reached the station, a voice l arked sharply out of the night. “All right, men. We'll dump them here for the time Ix-ing. The hitherto silent soldiers went about his bidding quickly, mumbling to each other. They were grotesque figures, moving back and forth in the sudden moonlight. Jeremiah, standing out of sight next the station, knew that they had no liking for their task. He wondered what would become of these wretched remains. He crawled silently down to the edge of the ditch into which the Ixxlies were lx ing lowered. He s;tt there, shivering in the chill night air, wondering why he didn't leave. The soldiers finished their task quickly and disappeared towards their barracks. Jeremiah was left alone with thirty-eight dead men. Then, he never could explain to himself why. he slid down the edge of the pit to the muddy earth below. Before him, sprawled across one another, lay four of the bodies. Fascinated, he stared at their upturned faces, glassy eyes, and sunken mouths. He started 93 as he recognized the body of Red Fox, but a few feet away. Suddenly, just as if an outer force propelled his body, he knelt lieside the lxxly of the bravest man he had ever in his young life known. His fingers touched the bracelet on his wrist. Fumblingly he removed it and stared at it in the faint moonlight. His hand reached out and grasped the stitT arm of Red Fox. Almost reverently he placed his cherished possession on the cold, dead wrist. Then, as if suddenly taking a chili, he shivered violently. The horror of the place came down on him for one ghastly moment and then he leaped up and ran olT into the night, shaking with colcl and fright. The young medical student was startled from his reverie by a voice at his elbow. Hey, Jerry. What's that you got there? Handcuffs maybe? “No, Bill. Funny thing happened. I was going through the skeleton library and I found this the wrist of one of them.” “You don't say! Here let me see it. Well, I’ll l e damned ! Real honest to goodness handmade jewelry. With engraved initials yet. I.et see. J. . . . C. Say, those are your initials. Jerry, you must have friends among the dead. laughed the newcomer as he tossed the old bracelet onto a chair.

MENTION POETRY SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL CYNTHIA ROBINSON Lilies of the Volley It was a damp, cold spring that year, but on this particular day it was warm and sunny. The snow was almost gone, hut if one kicked at a pile of brown leaves a patch of hard, dirty ice was revealed. This was the kind of day tor l eing happy, and no one knows this better than a school-child. Such a happy child was Cindy Harrow as she skipped the two blocks home from the large consolidated school. She was alone localise her lost friend. Sally, was only four and not yet ready for kindergarten, much less the first grade with its sophisticated tales of Dick. Jane, and Baby. She suddenly remembered that she must hurry home to tell Sally about the boy who’d thrown up in school and how they’d all stood out in the hall while the janitor cleaned the room. She jumped off the curb and skip|od across the street. On the far side she stopped to watch a muddy torrent of water rush toward the sewer outlet. But a small girl in springtime is not long immobile, and soon she was gathering wet, brown leaves to dam the raging fl Kxl. It was as she swept a pile of these off Mrs. Benson’s well-nurtured garden that she saw them. The first flowers of the year, lilies of the valley! Their tiny white Ik-1 Is were overwhelmingly beautiful in such a drab, brown setting. The leaves were green and young as only spring can make them. They were in full bloom and their sweet fragrance was overpowering. Wouldn’t Mommy lx pleased with them! She’d put them in the blue vase in the living-room and say to everyone who came, “Cindy brought them home, aren’t they lovely ?” The little girl forgot lur damming project and began to pick the fragrant, delicate blossoms. Suddenly there was a sharp rap on the window of the Benson house. She looked up to see kind old Mrs. Benson who kept lovebirds and parakeets looking stern, yet hurt, and Inckoning her to come in. Cindv knew immediately that she had done something terrible, and filled with panic and remorse, she stuffed the offending flowers into her coat pocket and started lowly toward the house. Cynthia.” Mrs. Benson l egan in a hard t ne, “what were you doing in my garden? Cindy swallowed and began. I was getting leaves to dam the gutter. Mrs. Benson.” “Did you pick any flowers? Mrs. Benson became the grand inquisitor. Cindy wondered where all her cheerful birds were, hut dared not ask. This was not the 94 woman whom Cindy had watched talk and coo to her birds. She was kind and smiley, but this fierson. tall, dressed in black, was cold and accusing. “No, Mrs. Benson.” Cindy did not lie easily. It was almost as bad as stealing. “What have you got in your pocket, Cynthia ? The child was found out. Almost in tears she brought out the crumpled, gray pulp which bad been the first flowers of the year. “Cynthia,” Mrs. Benson In-gan, “I have lived here a king time. I’ve known many lx vs and girls in this neighlxirhood and most of them have lx en good children. You are new in this neighlxirhood. but I know you are really a nice, honest little girl. Mrs. Benson droned on alxntt honesty and stealing. The hot tears of shame and remorse were flowing freely now. She could never face Mrs. Benson again after today. Mrs. Benson would always hate her. She hated herself. She was a common thief. “I'm sorry. I’m very, very sorry, she sobbed. Mrs. Benson reverted to her familiar sweet voice. “It's all right, dear, you just fell to temptation.” She led the child to the door, imparting hackneyed words of wisdom as they walked. When they reach the door she stood there talking of the consequences of temptation. Cindy stcxxl there miserably, wanting to make it up to her. Then she saw the gas bill under the mat where the delivery man had left it. Mrs. Benson turned to re-enter the house. The little girl picked up the bill. “Mrs. Benson, she called, still half sobbing. Yes, dear? Cindy noticed for the first time that her voice was sickeningly sweet. “Here—here's your gas bill.” she faltered. Mrs. Benson laughed. Cindy gave her the bill and l egan to run. The flo xl of tears began again. Mrs. Benson had no right to laugh at her. She couldn't be stern, and sweet, and amused, not all at once. It wasn’t right. It wasn’t honest. She no longer hated herself, and she no longer looked up to Mrs. Benson. She ran faster and faster, sobbing as she ran. She thought of Sally waiting for her to come home. She could never tell Sally what bad happened. It was her secret—hers and Mrs. Benson’s. She ran into the house and up the stairs |� st her mother. “Why Cindy, what’s the matter, dear?” asked the surprised Mrs. Harrow. “I hate spring! she cried vehemently. As she rushed past her mother, she opened her clenched fist and something fell out. The bewildered mother saw it and picked it up. A door slammed loudly upstairs. She examined the object and found it to lx- a crumpled mash faintly recognizable as lilies of the valley. HON.

MENTI( N JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL POETRY LYN NESBITT 95 “One Winter Day” “Oh, what’s there to do? This is the second day this week that lias been completely dull.” Drew had pulled himself up into a sitting position from the floor and now looked directly at Whitney, his older sister. Whitney was a year older than her brother and usually considered herself far superior. Today she uncurled herself from the couch and went into the next room. Hey. where are you going?” asked Drew. In a minute Whit (as she was called) returned carrying a dictionary. What in the world do you want a dictionary for?” Here take it and find the hardest word to spell you can. I liet I can spell any one you choose.” Heck, that's no fun!” Oh. go ahead and let me finish my book.” There was a minute of silence, but, as usual, the minute was a short one. Hey, Whit, listen to this. Webster says here. 'A Cocker Spaniel has long hair and long ears. It's small to medium sized, and the Cocker is only one of the breeds.' I couldn't figure out what a Spaniel is from that description!” You don’t have to. You know what a Cocker Spaniel is, don’t you? “Someday, I’m going to write a dictionary that really describes things.” By this time Whit had given up all hope of finishing the Ijook she was reading. She put it on the table, turned to Drew, and said, All right. Webster Junior, tell me your version.” “O.K. I will. I'd say, ‘Cocker Spaniel is that breed of dog which could find a brier patch in the (Kean. He has long sensitive ears, and when he walks his feet spread so far he looks quite ridiculous. It is tht breed which absorbs half of their drinking water with their ears, and leaves two trails of water across the entire kitchen floor. They are very friendly and I'm sure the reason they have such short tails is they wag the rest off . They are the breed for which you spend a good half hour fixing a lK d and in the morning vou find them lying right beside von in vour bed. They------- I surrender. When you finish tlii dictionary let me know. In the meantime, please find something quiet to do. This is a good book. Whit recurled herself and Drew lay hack down on the floor, dreaming of the fame he was going to have when he wrote his dictionary.
