Power of Music (apologies to wordsvvorth) Vanderbilt! Vanderbilt ! Ho! Ha! Hay! The serenaders are coming this way ; Near the stately Belmont you meet with the same, In the street that from Belmont hath borrowed its name. What eager listeners, what a treat is this — The students have life, the teachers have bliss ; The homesick are cheered and the tired have rest, And the care-worn matron is no longer opprest. The dignified Senior was passing in haste, What matter — she ' s caught, and her time run to waste ; Miss Hood is stopped, though she stops on the fret, And stately Miss Heron is caught in the net. The watchman sits down on the gun which he bore ; Mrs. Crutcher of medicines brings hither her store ; If there be a flirt in the crowd, he may flirt with ease, She sees the musician, ' tis all that she sees. O, blest be the hearers, and proud be the hand, That encores gratefully the generous band ; How pleased are the students, yet all the while, They must not speak their praise — except with a smile. The serenade is ended ere the first light of dawn, Silence reigns supreme, the choir is gone. The choir is gone, but O what themes, The blessed band furnished for happy dreams ! Clara Weber.

The roses nowhere bloom so white As down in Arkansas ; The sunshine nowhere shines so bright As down in Arkansas ; The birds sing nowhere quite so sweet, And nowhere hearts so lightly beat, For heaven and earth both seem to meet, Down in Arkansas. The days are ne ' er so bright and long As down in Arkansas, Nor quite so filled with mirth and song As down in Arkansas ; And when my time has come to die, Just take me back and let me lie Close where the river washes by, Down in Arkansas. E are Kentuckians of the dark and bloody ground. As true followers of Daniel Boone, we are fond of fight and adventure, always armed, not with teeth, but to the teeth. You Texans, Tennesseans, and others, need not fear us, if you are good little girls and mind your teachers, but beware, lest you excite our warlike spirit. You wish to know of the land from whence comes the mighty statesman, the duelist, the scholar, the poet, the belle, the rider, the huntsman? It is a land inhabited by people who fear nothing. The girls fear neither mice nor bugs. It is the land of moonshine. Yes, you have heard of the witchery and magnetism of the moonshine. No doubt some of it has been caught, eke in barrels, and shipped to your town. Such things have been done in Kentucky ! The horses ! None of you are ignorant on that score. We disdain to ride ponies even at Belmont, for we have thoroughbreds. And the Kentucky beauties are known everywhere. About Kentucky litera- ture? We are well versed in it. All of us know the Blue Grass Cook Book from start to finish. And as for music, we can all sing the Grand Opera of My Old Kentucky Home. And art? Where is there a Kentuckian who can not draw a gun? No need to grow pale, we are not so dangerous. Each member of our club will make a mark on the world, either with a gun or a horseshoe. Know you, one and all, that we are proud of what we are, proud of our State of blue grass and our gun-smoked mountains. We are a people who will never lose our free, bold spirit in college or elsewhere.

GIVING BACK HIS FRAT PIN A Feast The clock ' s at eleven, The light bell has rung; In a room sit girls seven, O ' er the transom a dress hung. A power ' s on the track, She has heard the loud smack Of ravenous lips ; And softly she tips. There ' s a rap at the door, A scramble on the floor ; There ' s a call from outside, ' Neath the bed they all slide ! An answer — feigned slumbering, Sweet innocence wondering. The teacher believes ; She starts — good ! she leaves. But, alas! little elves, You have perjured yourselves.

Laughter and sunshine and song will she bring to thee Through years that escape like broken-stringed pearls. Earnestly, faithfully, long have we wrought for her, Body and spirit and mind to uplift. Swift her response and strong her endeavor, The gold from the dross to carefully sift. Now in the closing she cometh again to thee, Meet for the ministering mission of home; Thy needs and thy longings, thy wish wi meet for thee, Constant, unfaltering, nor given to roam.

The Tau Fry Long ago, one autumn evening, On the Campus tipped with dew, Sped the swift-winged god of mischief In the guise of those I knew. Just before them in the twilight, Little dreaming of its doom, Perched a treasure of a bantam Just outside the matron ' s room. Tempted by a sudden longing For a morsel and a lark, One fair blonde, her courage mustered And took him captive thro the Park. On thro Rec Hall marched the victors Heeding naught from any source, ' Til with bated breath they entered North Front No. of course. In the air at once seemed something doing, And in less time than I can tell, The dear little bantam ' s neck was ringing As Miss Burrus rang the bell. Supper to the trembling Frat. girls Seemed to lack its usual zest, Tho they tried to appear unruffled, Thoughts of murder clung at best. High and festive were the chafers Until silence reigned supreme, And each sought her own apartment, Lost in the rapture of a dream. In a cottage, not far distant, Just across the Campus, there Lived three little children, Dear little tricks with golden hair. Each had bantams, two in number, ' Til this was missed one day, So three little hearts were broken, Oh what had kept their chick away? Who had heart to tell those children Of its fate ? I ' m sure not I ; They were too young to know that bantams Were designed alone — Tau Fry. A. L. C. jBustral Clubs The Clara Schumann Piano Club OFFICERS Dora Chatterton, President.

The Clara Schumann Piano Club was organized in 1896, at Belmont College. The Club has had an intermittent life up to the last two years, since that time its activities have been regular and far reaching. On December 16, 1903, the pupils of Miss Eeftwich ' s Class met and reorganized the Club. The purpose of the Club is not absolutely for pleasure, but for improve- ment. The members are studying the lives of the famous composers, and illustrations of their work are given. i . - - «jv SBHHHmHBI Ik ' w 4 . w .:;.-. ■.:.;■. i- . ' .

The Garden of the Gods Faculty! faculty! Sibyls of Ph.D., How does your garden grow ? With chapel bells, and senior ' s knells, And teachers all in a row. For sweet Miss Hood, so kind and good, Are orchids, full of grace. Tender and rare, and wondrous fair, And pure, like her own dear face. Mlle. ' s bed is blue and red, With gay French pinks bedight. And Miss Townsend knows that a pansy grows For our thoughts of her, warm and bright. The sunflower yellow ' s a lusty fellow, He follows the sun all day. Like Mrs. Myers, who never tires, To chaperone alway. The sharp cuckle-Burrus grow out of their furrows, ' Tis needless to tell you who claims them. Of the wild roses Miss Wade makes her posies And cultivates, strengthens and tames them. A warm red rose for Miss Heron grows, With a heart of gold like her own. In yonder bed, for Miss Wendell, ' tis said, A fierce tiger lily is grown. Violets, blue beneath their dew, For the one who is loved the best. Miss Sparks is nearer her girls, and dearer To them than all the rest. The Garden of the Gods Continued The chestnut flowers in leafy bowers, Miss Blalock ' s presence greet ; For Miss Taliaferro, grace both in manner and face, Are carnations, perfumed and sweet. In sweater of red, with a tarn on her head, Miss Schuler takes walks every day, So a rambler rose in her garden grows, With blossoms all crimson and gay. Miss Strong is so airy we plant the light fairy White thistledown seeds for her dower; And here for Miss Cook, in a bright sunny nook, Moon blossoms and star-jasmine flower. Bright hues for their faces, sweet perfumes for graces And thorns for their failings — yes, that ' s very true. But think what a scramble of nettle and bramble If each of us girls owned a flower-bed too ! Suggestions That Louise Newcomb be restricted to three crushes a week. That Kathleen Jones put things on top of her head that she wishes to smell. That Elizabeth Ross has her picture taken to see really how much she does look like one. That Mrs. Crutcher does not publicly request the girls to pay drug- gists ' bills. Sometimes it May be embarrassing. That some one is engaged to remind Edna Kone of things. That Blanks Harper does not stay in bed more than seven days each week. That Miss Cook quit worrying the students with her love affairs. That Caliope changes her tune. That Kate Dinsmore change her saintly look. This one is getting monotonous. That some one write something for the Annual. That Sally Person get fat. That callers, especially young men, be admitted, at least, when they have engagements, and not be kept waiting more than two hours at South Front door. That Billy Smith stops being so Foxy. That the girls be allowed to attend more services on Sunday. That Dora Chatterton stops talking once for five minutes. That the teachers get a new supply of jokes, regardless of cost. That Misses Weber and Gary be added together and divided by two. That the tin statutes be painted. That Nell Roberts take anti-fat. That Miss Foscue talks about Peter awhile and gives Paul a rest.

The President ' s Message A FTER due consideration and forethought, the faculty has iL2L deemed some message advantageous for the present and future SraSsi welfare of the young ladies intrusted to our care. Since it is the aim of each of you to become refined and cultured women, and to reflect honor and glory upon your Alma Mater, perhaps I can aid you, by administering some advice — in many cases, unneeded — toward at- taining this aim. The first thing that you should know, on beginning a college year, is where you are and whither you are tending, and then you could better judge what to do and how to do it. We are now in the four- teenth year since a policy was initiated with the avowed object and confident promise of putting an end to young ladies overtaxing them- selves by hard and diligent study. The present exasperation, the present feeling of disgust, on the part of Faculty, is the result of a long-continued controversy on this subject. In my opinion, this will not cease until a crisis has been reached and passed. The crisis is here ! Therefore, young ladies, by no means are you to hazard the chance of attaining the true moral womanhood and accomplishing the true moral task, by so trivial a thing as study. Last session a squabble arose between Faculty and the students, on the mere question whether we should not assemble for chapel both before and after meals. The students argued that it would give a keener appetite and aid digestion. Faculty declared that neither of the above affirmed were at all necessary, and besides, it was too much of a nuisance. I forbear any discussion or reference to the right or wrong of the controversy. All I say is, Faculty has spoken ! Will you allow such catastrophes to occur while you stand trifling away your time? Will you stand, thus showing your inferiority to a great and mighty deed ; showing your inferiority to the high and honorable posi- tions which you occupy ? Yes, I think you will, for Faculty has spoken. All profess to be content with the rules of this institution of learning, if all of these rules can be maintained. Is it true, then, that any rule in our constitution has been broken ? I think not. For tell me when any teacher required a girl to take proper exercise by a stroll on the park, extinguished her light before she desires, be silent in chapel, or any other foolish thing so entirely unnecessary to a young woman ' s health and development. Ah, no! the teachers conform pretty closely to the course marked out for them. Now, Faculty, don ' t get the big- head. It is very gratifying to observe the general interest now being mani- fested in one of the most important duties of college life. That is having crushes. What could thrill a teacher with enthusiasm or urge her on to expend her mightiest efforts more than to see two girls in class writing notes and then beaming on each other with one of those smashy, crushy, love-sick smiles ? But, before entering upon so grave a matter as the one and sole aim of this institution of learning, allow me to implore you to achieve this aim with all its benefits, its memories, its hopes. Will you hazard so desperate a step while there is no possibility that from any portion of this aim, there is to be derived any real existing ill? Will you while the certain ills you fly to are greater than the real ones you fly from — will you risk the omission of attaining the excellent art of — making fudge? Anna Louise McKee.

IF you wish to discover how much real pain your friend is willing to suffer for your sake, strike him a solar-plexus blow in the region of the pocket book. The advertisements to be found in the suc- ceeding pages of The Aitrop were put there by firms that have been patronized by ' Belmont College and its students ; they believe that Belmont College is a good thing, and that The Aitrop is a good thing, and they believe in supporting both, even to the outlay of dollars. There are others that thought differently. Some of them are not to be blamed, for they wouldn ' t know a good thing if they saw it coming down the pike with a pleasant smile on its face. The others didn ' t care. The inference is obvious. Every Belmont girl believes that gratitude is one of the noblest virtues. Hence she will trade with those firms that support her school and her annual. And she will wipe away all trivial fond records and write the names of the advertisers in The Aitrop upon the tablet of her memory. Advertisers Aldred Dye House. American National Bank.

IB When You Select Your Piano Unless you are familiar with grades and quali- ties of materials jour selection may be a grievous mistake. Appearances, even tones are deceptive, and vou cannot always be governed by price. It is safer to trust the dealer ' s recommendation of an in- strument (provided he is reliable.) Buy where you ma be protected with a proper guarantee. If over a quarter of a century of steadily increas- ing business, an unsullied reputation and the mat- ter of giving the highest quality always at the most reasonable prices, on the easiest terms, are any in- ducements, we would appreciate vour visit or in- quiry when seeking a Piano.
