Cook Heat Light with Gas Tacoma Gas Light Company 101-3 Tenth Street The Hyak Vol. VII Tacoma, Wn, Dec., 1907 No. 2 THE BURGLAR. Florence awoke with a start, and sat up in bed. For several minutes she listened breathlessly, but silence reigned supreme over the Seminary, so she lay down again and closed her eyes. “It must have been just a dream ’ she murmured, sleepily. “I guess T didn’t hear any burglars after all. No, there it goes again.” This time he was sure she heard someone in the hall, and being unusually brave for a girl, she slid out of btnl and going to the door, she listened There was someone there all right; she could hear hands groping along the wall and stealthy footsteps. Suddenly the invader struck a match, and it must have burned his fingers, for he said something, a single, eloquent, heartfelt word; quite unfit for publication, but nevertheless a much-used word. I he burglar must have been a persevering sort, for he struck another match, and Florence being sure that real burglars never did such things, opened her door ever so little and peeped out. A tall youth with his hat turned up after the manner of high-school boys, stood in the uncertain light, and Florence was trying to decide whether or not to scream and raise the house, when the match went out. Florence shrieked; the young man said something and started to run along the dark corridor, stumbling along in his haste to be gone. The shriek had the desired effect. Teachers and girls rushed into the corridors; everyone 8 THE H Y A K talked at once, and the confusion was increasing momentarily, when Miss Mills, the principal, appeared. In a few moments she had quieted the girls, and learned from Florence the story of the hurytlar. Accompanied by several of the braver teachers, she started down- stairs in search of the burglar. Just as they reached the foot of the stairs the front door banged, and they heard rapid footsteps descending the front stairs. “He is gone. said Miss Mills, and her unconscious sigh of relief was echoed by the teachers. Order was restored and soon the Seminary was as still as the proverbial mouse. Outside, three young fellows were congratulating the erstwhile burg- lar on the success of his final initiation “stunt. From now on he was a member of the b � st fraternity in the high school. IN THE TWILIGHT. I ast of our dnv-dream comes to an end as the slowly fading sun touches the tfeetops on the hill, and out of the darkness, dim shadows rise which reach up. and away, stretching thenmelves to the skies. We see dimly the great old mill, w ' hich today was covered with golden light, and everywhere there seems stealing upon us a feeling of loneliness and sorrow for all the golden hours of sunlight, and youth, which fade, alas! too soon; and. when once lost, only the memory lingers with us at twilight to bless us alike with joy and sorrow. Hut twilight hours must come to us all, and if the golden hours of life were sweet and pun we have still their joy to remember. Life must have that dim vast twilight which brings us all to thoughts of prayer. Often when life is happy in the golden hours of youth, in twi- light Cornell its awe. thrilling us. We look to the sky whence cometh the light, and we are thankful for the stars which shine for us in the still dark hours of night. They seem to promise that another morning shall soon break forth with a glory that shall be everlasting. We dn not understand the clot ids and the shadows, and we often forget that the same kind Power that controls the winter controls also the spring, and twilight too is ruled bv that same Power, which causes the first sweet breath of morn.

Little Joe as lie worked sang these words very softly, almost below his breath. and thought it almost the sweetest song he had ever heard. Jo worked hard and fast, his usually pale face flushed, his frail body aching from the weight of the large pieces of wood which he was piling. He did not heed this, however, except when he was twice compelled to stop and rest. For had he not a dear object in view? What was the pain compared to that ! It was Friday. The following Tuesday would be Christmas. Joes face brightened as he thought of the Christmas gift he was to give. “I know she will like it. he thought. He had been pondering for a long time as to what he should give his beloved teacher. 1 1 is heart sank that morning when he went to school, for the last day had come and he had thought upon nothing which was good enough for her that could be had for ten cents the sum a neighbor had promised for piling his wood. He had remained sad and abstracted all morning thinking of one thing and then another that he wanted to give her. but sadly shaking his head after each one as the vision of his lonely dime arose. The afternoon came with the problem still unsolved. The tears which had come to his eyes, while thinking of his disappointment, were quickly succeeded by a smile when he remembered now that the difficulty was cleared. This the teacher herself had unconsciously cleared; for. when singing the song she had gladly consented to sing for her pupils— the song he was softly singing to himself— a t their Christmas program that afternoon, the thought came to him that a rose at this time of the year would be just the thing. He finished his work, washed his hands and face, combed his hair and started for the florist ' s, not daring to trust the precious dime even to his pocket. He himself picked out the most beautiful rose in the store, and eagerly told the clerk he wished to purchase it. The clerk placed the beauty in his hands, and Joe in turn slipped the coin, still hot from his tight clasp, to the clerk’s hand. 10 THE H Y A K The clerk seemed about to say something but catching sight of the boy’s happy face, changed his mind, and with a smile opened the door for him. “That rose,” he said to himself, “cost a good deal more than ten cents, but I do not begrudge it; no, not at all. With his beautiful treasure in his hand, Joe hurried up the long bight of stairs of the Fisher block, and knocked with heating heart at Miss Terry’s door. Almost instantly the door was opened and the sweetest of voices said, “good evening.” With a heart too full for speech, he handed her his gift. Joe felt fully repaid by her delighted, “Oh, Joe, my dear, dear boy, how can you think of such sweet and beautiful things to do, and how can I thank you enough!” “You have. Miss Terry,” he replied; “indeed you have. I wanted to give you this,” he went on. “because you sang the rose song this afternoon. Please will you sing it. for me again— just for me alone, by myself?” “Surely I will,” she said, “right now.” and she bent down and kissed him. Tired but happy, little Joe crep into bed that night. Contentedly he murmured as he fell asleep, “Dear Lord. I think Thee.” Flora Schively. THE MODERN COLLEGE GIRL. It was tonight that Grace Vienne was expected to arrive home for her birthday vacation. She had been away for several months attending a young ladies ' Seminary, and had adopted many little college phrases from her classmates. Her father, who was a grocervman in a little country town, was at the depot with the old horse and the delivev wagon to meet her. When the cars stopped in the depot a bewitching array of skirts and a wide-brimmed hat stepped daintily from the coach and bung itself into the elderly man’s arms. “Why, you superlative dad!” she exclaimed. “1 am more than captivated with your dear presence.” The old gentleman was somewhat surprised at this greeting, but when he recognized the sealskin coat he had paid for with his gray mare he planted a kiss where it would do the most good with a report that THE H Y A K 11 could he heard thrnughtout the depot. When the trunk and his fine educated daughter were loaded into the wagon, which was soon bumping over the rocky country road toward home. I’a dear. she said, after surveying the crude team, “do you consider this quite excessively beyond?” Mey, said the old man with a puzzled expression “quite exces- sively beyond what? Beyond Medville? I consider it about two miles beyond Medville coming this way.” She explained to him that she did not mean that, but that she meant the horse and wagon. Do you consider them soulful? Do you think they could be studied in the light of a symphony or a poem. and appear as intensely utter on returning home ;t8 one coukl express V The old man grew uneasy at the complicated way his daughter expressed herself. Just then they hit a stump and received a jolt which threw them both from the seat. Oh! there is my lovely and consummate ma!” screamed Grace as they reached the little farmhouse, and was presently embraced by her old mother. “Well.” said the old farmer as he nipped a piece of butter off the plate with his own knife at the supper table, “(trace, how de ye like ver schuleT” Well, pa. now you arc shout— I mean it is far beyond — It is unquenchably ineffable. The girls are stunning— intense— and. oh. the parties and receptions! I he past has ben a week of sublime harmonv. 1 spose, said her father, “but how about deportment, reading and spelling?” “Oh father, it is French art and music that has made mv life one of bliss.” Her father and mother looked hopelessly at one another across the table. After a pause, the mother replied, “How are the biscuits, child?” “Great, mother; too utter for words; ' cause your dear hands made them, and the plum pudding is simply a poem of itself.” Grace retired early that night, and the old folks sat by the fire until late talking it all over. The next morning at breakfast the old man. unnerved by her affected manner, spoke up harshly and said: 12 THE H Y A K “Grace, your mother and I have decided not to send you to boarding- school any longer, for we have not lived sixty odd consummate years for the sake of raising a curiosity. Now after you have finished eating that poem of fried sausage, and that symplumy of a twisted doughnut, you take and dust up the room and take off that fancy gown and put on a calico and help your mother wash dishes, and let ' s have no more rythmic foolishness.

Editorials The Seniors run now rest in peace, the spade has been found, and is now safely lying where neither the loving eyes of the Seniors nor the covetous ones of the Juniors can gaze upon its splendor. 14 THE H Y A K 1 hat thoughts of the spade had been in every loyal Senior’s heart lrom the very first was evident by their far-away looks and troubled faces. Now everyone knows that something is wrong when a Senior fails to give perfect recitations. What, then, could there be the matter before the time of November the first — Seniors were actually making all sorts of queer mistakes? Martha, asked the teacher, “what does 4 es refer to in this sentence you have just translated— ‘Wo kam es sein’?” “Why, the spade ’ an- swered that Senior tranquilly. The rest of the Seniors agreed that it did sound reasonable. A very queer topic sentence was found in Leale’s outline of Burke’s Conciliation. “They found themselves surrounded on all sides by cob- webs. Another Senior, when asked in History, what it really was (V 1 urn bus was seeking to discover, said dreamily. “The spade, wasn’t it?” It is too painful a subject to go back to, that dark time when the spade still lay in obscurity - . Suffice it to say that all corners wen care- fully peered into from garret to cellar. Proof can be given that both garret: First, from a conversation of two pigeons in the vicinity of the garret. Said the first pigeon: “What can those queer-looking objects be with such dirty faces and long aprons?” “I can’t imagine,” replied the second. “They do look dangerous, don’t they?” And the two pigeons scurried away in a great fright. Not long after that the cook was heard to exclaim: “I wonder what has become of that box of apples I placed in the cellar this morning— those rats are certainly becoming a nuisance.” The time was approaching that marked just a year from the day the last Senior class found the spade, and the dark brows of the Seniors were becoming darker. Hallowe’en night, they realized that there were only two days of grace remaining they must not let the class of ’07 bear all (?) the honors. “Girls,” said one worthy Senior to the others, “we must reveal the spade at the party this evening” And so they did— much to the mystification of Andrew, the next morning. The last night of grace came- and no spade. The Seniors by this time were almost desperate. Things were coming to such a state that even their appetites, strange as it may seem, were being affected. The pass- word became, “Oh for an inspiration !— it must he found tonight. There- THE H Y A K IS upon began the wildest of searches. Never mind. Seniors, your faithful- ness had its resolved— it was really and truly found that night. When the spade was safely placed under Miss Pitch’s care every Senior with one accord made a dive for the coal cellar, where they could relieve their overburdened spirits by yelling. I bat night, as each Senior crept into bed, she resolved to make up for ajl her sleepless nights of worry, and when the morning should come— yes. when the morning should— to eat a good breakfast. Flora Izret Schively. We have a very attractive gymnasium which we do not use enough. Why not use it oftener for a recreation hall? Why not use it especially on Friday and Saturday evenings? Let us have charades, tableaux, farces, pantomimes, or shadow plays, given by different groups of girls. The Annie Wright Seminary has as much talent of this sort as other schools, and yet we seldom sec it. Those who are members of the musical department could help us be sociable by coming out and bringing along their popular music— especially their latest songs. Too many of us spend our recreation by gathering in small groups in the different girls rooms. From now on, let each and all of us be more sociable with a greater number of girls. 1 16 THE H Y A K We girls all wonder why Mercedes Campbell still continues to “Si.” Edna s happy smile at the football game, November 80. came very near costing her an A.

Too bad we did not find it before. The two girls who made the dimovory seemed to be kind of stingy about it. At least they tried awfully hard to keep it from the other girls. If it hadn ' t been for some kind teachers, who happened along and discovered them partaking of their newlv-found pleasure, we should never have known anything about it. I’ll wager. I wish to say to the two girls— you of the light hair and you of the dark- after this do not be so greedy with your discoveries, because it’s of no use whatever.

I he custom of having each class in turn entertain the rest of the school has been instituted this year. and. in accordance with this idea, the gay young Sophomores” helped us to have a most enjoyable time All Hallows Kve. By eight o’clock an expectant audience had assembled, and presently a gipsy band danced out to the accompaniment of a weird march, which they played on Zoboes, and took their places in the orchestra pit. Then the curtain went up on ‘‘ ' I ' he Modern and Mediaeval Drama of Mary Jane and Benjamin.” This was a shadow plav. setting forth most touchingly the courtship of the said Benjamin and Man- Jane. Between the acts the gipsy band rendered appropriate selections with line effect, concluding with the Wedding March from Lohengrin, as the drama came to a satisfactory close with the marriage of the much-endear- ing lovers. After this happy ending, the guests were ushered out to the Gymnasium, which had been simply but effectively decorated with great bunches of ferns and Oregon grape and vines of various sorts. At the far end of the hall a Jack-oTantern mounted guard over table, decorated in orange and dark green, and loaded with good things to eat! Among the greens in various parts of the room other Jack-o’-lanterns grinned down on the f( stivities. After a few moments spent in admiring these decorations, the guests joined in peanut races and the other diver- sions sacred to Hallowe’en. Following these came a grand march, led by the orchestra; then refreshments were served by the Sophomores, ap- ples. cider and peanuts being served on dustpans, and doughnuts on witches’ sticks. After this repast, the hunt for the ring began, but was ended all ton soon by Ethel Norman, who was the lucky finder. A little 20 THE H Y A K dancing, interrupted by the Seniors’ mock “Spade” procession, followed, and closed a most delightful evening. Miss Mills chaperoned Misses Soe and Veral Smith, Bess Hutton, Sadie Ramsay, Corinne Nolan. Alice King and Evelyn Catterson to “The Alaskan.” Although the company was said to he amateur, the girls enjoyed the play very much. The teachers of the musical department of the Seminary gave a very entertaining recital on Wednesday night, November 20. Miss Hard, the vocal teacher, rendered a number of solos which showed her remarkable talent and splendid voice. The instrumental teachers. Miss Pyles and Miss lloge, gave us some beautiful piano solos, which everyone enjoyed. Prof. Bull’s artistic interpretation won the admiration of everyone. The program is as follows: 1 fcotialr.

The Junior class entertained in honor of the THE H Y A K 21 Seniors. The room was most artistically decorated with Japanese ferns, lanterns and chrysanthemums, carrying but the colors of the two classes. From a bower of green, punch was served by two of the Sophomore class, dressed as dainty Japanese maids. The music was splendid, everyone had a glorious time and the hours flew all too quickly. The class of 1909 is to be congratulated on the success of the affair. On December fifth the faculty of the Music department gave a most enjoyable tea in Miss Pyles’ room. Delightful refreshments were served and entertainment was furnished from unexpected v sources. A most hilarious zobo concert was rendered. In honor of finding of the spade, Miss Edith den Bleyher entertained the Seniors at her home. Monday afternoon, November 4th. 22 THE H Y A K Love in her i ve s, oh exstaey !
