VEN in the long, long Oh! very long ago the elders of the tribe criticized the corruptions of youth. Oh! yes, the vices were many. There was not much indifference to the worth while things of life, why even Paul disregarded the worthwhileness of familiarity with the 90 degree angle and that circle with 340 degrees or was it 360 degreesV Oh well, what matters thatV Oh ’tis true he was a jocund youth but he was not the only one. Willard quite agreed with him, only Willard tho'f that the circle, in fact he was quite aware that the circle had 360 degrees. By Allah, why shouldn’t he, he had helj ed to make that rule. O so very, very benignant were Isabelle, and Jessie, and Elizabeth. Life was really so simple, so interesting and so complete. Yes, Allah supplied all things for that Simple life. Just a simple faith and simple morning prayer, kept that forbearing god Osinis from life forever. 11 Paul Rowe

George Underwood 5OW it so happened that, an earthquake having destroyed their beautiful city, it became necessary for George and Virginia, in company with the noble Buster and the inseparable Violet and Margaret, to set forth for a new land. And as their destination they chose the Garden of Allah. George and V irginia, wandered on ahead, and it fell to Bus to entertain the other fair damsels. And it came to pass that, in crossing the desert, they came to a spot on which grew many and varied types of the low and thorny cactus. Our hero Bus, following the example of the ancient .Sir Walter Raleigh, removed his flowing robe on which was blazoned a flaming A, and spreading it over the thorny way he cried, “Step on ’er, kids.” And even in the middle of the journey such as this, it seems, we find our bits of romance. For it is said that George quoted the worthy Khay yam to Virginia; A book of verses underneath a bough. Some H20, a loaf of bread, and thou Jazzing within the wilderness, Oh Wilderness were Paradise enow. Violet Graves 10

Merle Goodlett OW it came to pass that among the members ot the Caravan there were those who said little but did great deeds. According to the custom ot those times the man who hid his light under a bushel, found it undimmed by frequent contact with scoffers and unbelievers. However one night there came to the riders of the Caravan the news that great hordes of enemies were to swoop down ujx n them. Consternation was felt by all. Even the leaders of the tribe believed the caravan doomed. Then up spoke Bernice, the Spokesman of a quiet, yet helpful group. “Go Merle and thou, William and quickly unload the meanest of the beasts of burden. You must then cover the rest of the beasts with the sheets of dun-colored cloth and let the enemy pass on.” Then with the jxxirest camels leading the enemy in the wrong direction and the real caravan hidden by the dun-colored cloth, once more the meek saved their people.
