my am LUE sky. Brilliant sunshine. Softness in the air. To- morrow it will snow fthe Geology Department says solj but for today we play at Spring. It is the iv M iii Glen Parade. No strutting drum-major leads this glad parade, though Sammy does the honors for as many units as possible. And no martial music keeps this parade in step. Music here is only a phantom-a hint of the melody that will Wing its way from the South. But still-it is the Glen Parade. Signs of Spring -remember Olla Podrida? That is a part of the Glen Parade. All those pale creatures who sat list- lessly in the parlors of North Hall have tasted the strong Wine of Life and they Wander happily over the soddcn leaves that still hide the earth from spring. Fine friendships around the campfire. Starlit skies and deep shadows. Laughter tags this story-but we all look up at night when it is the Glen Parade. Bright wooly sweater-suits flashing through the still barren branches. Faculty children have gathered to share in the fete The sober Professor -- seeks out dry leaves and wood while Mrs. Professor -- spreads a tempting display in wax-paper. The first soft day of the year sees this pageant-and all the other soft days that break into the hold of winter until spring is surely come. For each such day we keep gayety at hand 5 a bright scarf 5 dancing feetg and a joy in being. It is the Glen Parade! 167
