No. We have read great poems, and the strong Terse science texts have held us hour by hour. But, in the half-light, pages lose their power; We hear a phrase from an athletic song, Hook on a hockey skirt and join the throng To tea-house, chattering as we devour. These are our guzzling moments — let them go Lightly as they were lived. To those of you Who doubt if all our tales of work are true, We give assurance that new day will show Us lib or lab bound, for none better know Day has its dreams. But night has muggle, too.

Once upon a time we were very young, and the bushes on the campus were hung with our bleeding hearts. Cecil ' s heart bled indiscriminately. The rest of us specialized more, and the paths of Gertie Hearne, Dosia, Eleanor Marquand, Adelaide, Tip, and others would have been strewn with roses if public opinion had permitted flowers during the war. The type of person smitten was one of the striking things about the epidemic. For instance, our emotional Betty Mills spent many stolen hours gazing up at Phoebe ' s window. The excitable Cope y was enamoured successively of all presidents of the Athletic Association, and has had a hard time this year deciding where to bestow her affections. But there were some cases that were different from these common crushes. We know they were different, because the victims told us so. Only the most jaundiced mind could call by any other name than friendship Nora ' s tender feeling toward Gertie Steele, which led her to keep Gertie ' s room overflowing with flowers, fruit, candy, pictures, books, and other indispensable articles. (I always thought rather pathetic the story that once Gertie had been exposed to the measles and for a whole week could not be kissed good-night. ) We will all admit that only the purest friend- ship caused Marjorie to knit the shell-pink sweater and gallantly rescue V. K. ' s gown from the waste basket. The real thing in the way of passion was the aura of emotion with which Kash surrounded Sacred Toes. She confided her feelings to one-half the campus, and the other half was not in total ignorance, but Kash constantly worried lest it should leak out. Of course, all these things happened in our extreme youth. Elizabeth Godwin, Katharine Woodward. Drama THE spirit of reform in the theatre so prevalent in America in the winter of 1917-18 spread immediately to the progressive Main Line communities of Merion and Radnor. In Merion this spirit gave birth to the On the Square ' ' players. It is beyond doubt that the moral tone of the community was improved thereby. The first effort worthy of note was entitled The Dark Horse. The plot is more subtle than that of the ordinary run of plays, and the whole is written in the most exquisite verse. The climax comes when the soldier hero is unable to save the heroine from the base German spy because his trousers are stuck to the Dark Horse with wet paint. With great presence of mind our soldier boy rises to the occasion by stepping out of his trousers and performing the rescue efficiently in H. V. D ' s. Who can say that this sort of drama does not educate the taste of the community? In the initial performance the title role was played by Miss Frances Riker, her hair proving to be a most realistic tail. The sincere efforts of the players were rewarded by only minor successes during the next few months. In Prejudice the Puritan Maid the high-minded heroine refuses her lover because he can read only ten pages of German per hour, and con- secrates her life to the higher education of women. This play, in blank verse, was given for the famous Miss Sarah Taylor and her coterie. It was not appreciated. On the whole, these great pieces of dramatic art were above the heads of the laity. It was not until the On the Square players entered broader fields and gave their never-to-be-forgotten Birth of Meekness that their struggle to improve the dramatic taste of the common herd bore any fruit. Elizabeth Kales. A REVIVAL of the old English tradition was the contribution of the Radnor group toward a general public interest in higher things. On the fourth floor Young Lochinvar came out of the West clad technically super-correct, having his entire costume composed of athletic clothes. He rode all unarmed, and he rode all alone, for his good broad hockey stick served interchangeably for sword and horse. He stayed not for break, but boldly entered the Netherby hall to find his fair Ellen kissing a watering can. The leading parts in the other plays were Goggin as the lily white doe, who dropped her head in Lady Clare ' s hand and followed her all the way; and numerous bounding billows, whose loud waves lashed the floor beneath a sheet, and whose waters wild went o ' er Lord Ullin ' s daughter, and ended her stormy journey in a wicker rocking chair. The simple yet forceful settings for these classics was a note- 19 worthy break with the Belascan tradition of over ornamentation. Take, for example, their realistic Scottish lake, suggested by a single sheet, under which writhed one of the general utility of the company. In order to still the almost uncontrollable passion roused in the audience by these artless ballads, a series of morality plays followed, taken from the book of Cautionary Tales upon which Dean Taft was raised. The justification of this method of elevating the public has been admirably shown in the after life of the members of that company, for was it not here that Katharine Woodward first learned the art of fire-brigading in the denouement of Matilda Told Such Dreadful Lies, and what but the lines of Charles Augustus Fortescue, who did everything a boy should do, could have stimulated the self-government germ in Goggin ? Florence Billstein, Helen Hill. SHADOWY creatures in dim lit gardens Flitting about, all whites and greys, Such was the meaning I gave to ghosts, in My pure subfreshman days. Different now is my understanding College has taught me more things than one I asked for light on a certain subject, — Mother, they gave me the sun ! Helen D. Hill. 20 LETTER TO THE EDITOR The editors do not hold themselves re- sponsible for opinions expressed in this column. To the Editor of the College News: We will make you love us all before tlic year is done. Thus 1921 confidently sang at the beginning of the year, and we had hopes. If such was their intention, some of its members have adopted very strange methods to accomplish this end. We do not quarrel with them for being fresh , because unlike most Freshman classes, 1021 has been commendably meek. As common courtesy is to be expected from anyone, it has never been thought necessary to include it in Sophomore miles. When a whole room full of Freshmen re- mains not only glued to their seats at the entrance of upper classmen, but even fails to rise at the entrance of an elderly lady; when the sidewalks are continually blocked by sauntering Freshmen; when their whole attitude expresses with ' 21 there is nothing wrong ; it seems that if we would, we could not, love them. And yet the year is almost done. Disgusted. (In this letter the birth of Meekness, child of 1921, was announced.) To the Editors: Events of the past few days have led us to believe that the Sophomores are too much impressed with the dignity of their own position. While we have long since learned to consider our crackers and jam as community property, we should like, if possible, to keep our hats, desks, rugs, and pictures for our own use. In con- scription days, when time is no longer our own, may we not pursue our Sunday meditations free from the intrusion of rude appraisers? If this is the Sophomore idea of courtesy, who are they to vote the Fresh- men fresh? Indignant Sister-Classmen. [Seven Signatures.] (This letter, written a year later, proves that Meekness icas dead.) Here Lies Meekness 21 1918 (9 primer Utteon] 1 + 9+1 + 8 = 1918. 1918 was a Class. It was a Proud Class. We knew the Class when we were Lit-tle but we did not know the Class well. We knew Char-lotte and Les-lie and Vir-gin-i-a. We still know Les-lie but it is pro-nounced Miss Rich-ard-son. Vir-gin-i-a was a Chick-et-y Chee-Chee-Chee. Yes, Vir-gin-i-a was a Bird. Perhaps there were a whole flock of Birds in 1918. But we did not know them well e-nough (e-nuff) to find out. It is too bad, 1918. 22 Jfreafjman g f)oto IT IS hard to look hack calmly on a state of extreme emotion, and so it is that to write of Freshman Show immediately throws me into such a panic that my instinctive reaction is to snatch the blotting-paper from my desk, paint it with stripes of red ink and twist it into a costume for stick-candy in the Hoover Chorus. Confusion was the striking note of Freshman Show. Confusion for weeks before in the practice rooms of Pembroke East, where no two members could agree on the exact melody of Going Up ; confusion on the top floor of Llysyfran where Emily vainly tried to coach expression into Is it troo-hoo, is it you-hoo? and at the same time teach the entire Egyptian Chorus in Schurmie ' s room to balance on one foot while going through strenuous calisthenics with arms and head. The result was that Miss Ford thumb-tacked notices on the lavatory door, saying that the floors were old and shaky and might fall through if all the fattest members of 1921 insisted on prac- ticing to be Isadora Duncans. What that Egyptian Chorus was we failed to appreciate completely until we saw it through the eyes of the Sophomores later in the year. Emily saw herself in Mad Brown ; I saw myself in D. J. . . . Confusion ! My pleasantest memory of Freshman Show is the Last Day — the Day when the scenery had not yet been located in Rockefeller basement; the Day when nothing had yet been made in the way of costumes beside the animal costume (which, of course, had been ready for weeks) and the Roman helmets for the Flowers in Act II. Luckily, we had in our midst Dot Cams, who, besides being a criminal lawyer, had degrees in cooking and sewing. Headquarters for activities accordingly shifted to Llysyfran, where string hung in garlands from the chandelier and buttons grew on the carpet, and twelve vigorous damsels cut up my best nightgown into twelve Egyptian costumes. From then on my memory is blurred. There was the make-up ; there was Luz still rushing about; there was a lone tenor singing the curtain song . . . and then, complete oblivion. When I came to, someone was fanning me with a copy of the College News, which had something on the front page about a mute hero and a red color-scheme. Miriam Morrison. AINIWAI BfHftviOR. BEFORE FRESHmAM SUOW- 23 illpspfran THIS is Llysyfran ' s last appearance. We are the last of her veterans — we the last who shall sigh over her name, and tremble at Miss Ford ' s. Llysyfran was always exclusive; the first year for Freshmen only (except for the self-sacrificing Junior chaperones) ; the second — having possibly learned a lesson — for anything but Freshmen. Miss Ford preferred the first contingent. Thev didn ' t climb in windows at midnight, they didn ' t have the flu, and they did have a lot more beaux (she set great store by the latter). A memoir of Llysyfran should be a series of pictures — words fail. The first might be simply a little note flapping on a pin stuck into the great wooden ball at the foot of the stairs, of which a close-up would show: Will the young lady who stole the dish-rag from the tea pantry please stop in Miss Ford ' s room at her earliest convenience? Another picture might show the roof — figures wrapped in comforters, distributed at various angles, singing to the tree-tops and to the stars, nearly all night. Another : the front hall at 11.45 P. M. ; Towser standing under the moose-head, ringing the fire-bell like a town crier ; Lulu stumbling from squad to squad, recognizing not a soul, and finally planting herself in the middle of the hall with the announcement, Can ' t find my squad. Still again: same hall, filled with squealing excited persons; clouds of steam bursting from the tea pantry and filling the whole house with dense hot fog; Miss Ford, on the verge of tears, wringing her hands, running in circles around the hall and crying, The boiler has burst! What shall we do, what shall we do, what shall we do, etc., ad infinitum. Clouds of steam continue. Finally enter Hero from Power House, who strides in and turns off the hot water faucet which was causing the trouble. There were other times . . . But Mary Lou retired promptly at 7.30 every night and began bellowing Sh-sh-sh at that moment. The closets were all filled with Ibby ' s evening dresses, but our hearts were filled with gladness, and it was sad indeed that just as we were beginning really to know how to spell her name and pass the word on to our bewildered correspondents, we were forced to leave Llysyfran. She is now dissected into apartments with six new bath-tubs. (We saw them being carried in. ) Requiescat in pace. Katharine M. Cowen. 24 Tarsitp dramatics, 1918 VARSITY Dramatics called for vigor and decision from the first. It called in vain. My earliest vivid memory is of a committee meeting consisting of Miss Hodges, Miss Martin, and me, — Lorna had wisely held aloof, — called at 1.30 one Tuesday afternoon to vote upon whether the chairman of the committee and the stage-manager should he one or two individuals. Miss Martin was of the opinion that the two offices should be combined due to stress of time; Miss Hodges felt that the work would be too heavy for a single pair of already stooped shoulders, and thought that possibly some one longer in college The intervening months between that meeting and the final performance may have been a period of pursuing an artistic ideal for those lofty others, — for me they were one of pursuing Mrs. Patch ' s beads. Nightly as she sank into the waiting chair in the center of the gym. floor she crossed her legs at the expense of the string of heavy wooden beads which dangled to her hem. For the rest of the evening I slid about on splintered knees. The night of the final performance has left only a few vague memories. I remem- ber finding Marjorie (by that time she had said, As long as we are going to see a good deal of each other I suppose you might as well stop calling me Miss Martin ) wandering back and forth over the stage at about half-past five vainly pursued by Cornie who was trying to forcibly feed her a crisply dry chicken sandwich ; I remem- ber the entire servants ' hall, assembled, ready to go on the stage, striking because no one would give them spirits of ammonia to drink ; I remember Nan Thorndike landing on my head as she slid down the pole from the running track ; and I remember the gratifying glory of P. T. ' s smile (as observed through a small hole in the curtain) when Virginia naively announced that she was a chickety chee, a chickety chickety chee. Helen D. Hill. 25 atmor Dear Miss : I am pleased to inform you that you have been assigned to room , Radnor, for the ensuing year 1917-18. Yours very sincerely, Edith T. Orlady. Thus was the dreary fate of twenty-eight Freshmen sealed, twenty-eight joyous young things still eagerly clinging to a hope of Pembroke doomed to this far reputed hole of grinds. But they had been there only two months when they were heard modestly singing: Radnor has come up a step Ha, ha, ha! Those Freshman gave that hall a rep Ha, ha, ha! We were in those days unduly large — some of us sat at every table in the di ning-room — we conversed freely, we sang well, we must have been odious. After Freshman year our ranks were much depleted, the lure of Llysyfran and the insidious work of mysterious summer forces having cut us down to the scant number of sixteen. (We secretly resented the disloyalty of those who had deserted us for other halls, but we invited them back for Sunday night supper. ) Early in Sophomore year the survivors swore eternal fidelity to Radnor, banded together in an organization to meet nightly on the common ground of muggle, invented a graceful sign of greeting and a whistle to call members. At dinner one evening, just after all of the above had been decided, a newly shorn member (alas, we have had several shearings in our flock) arose and announced amid the shrieks of her confederates (we always enjoy our little jokes), The Sons of Guz will Guzzle in the Guzzleum tonight at 9.15. Sons we called ourselves, but we always addressed fellow sons as Sistern . The somewhat perverted language of our chief merry jester infected us all, and such words and phrases as twirdy , cherry tree , and seven times cursed became part of our common parlance. While partaking of the evening collation, jokes are encouraged by the mild, gentle giggle of Flub-Jub and Ben Jamin ' s more than adequate imitation; our wits are sharpened by the subtleties of Hellenish humor; and our longing for romance finds some outlet in quizzing our blushing Mary. Some- times, of course, we feel subdued and things are dreary, but no matter what may happen we always have with us the incessant, clever, openly cryptic repartee of Naughts to Kash — and then, too, Copey will always spill her milk. Mary Simpson Goggin. 26 ftfje Jflajorttp i tileg A CRACKED plan was that of ' 18 and ' 19 for altering our predominance in the affairs of the cosmos. On the night of the memorable meeting we were instructed in the matter of straw votes. They put up their candidate; we elected our choice. Then that half vote per Freshman measure was sprung. How they expected to pass such a delectable measure when 125 of us could balk any majority and were essential for a quorum was quite beyond human comprehension, doubtless beyond parliamentary usage, and perhaps beyond V. K. ' s master mind. Well, due to water-polo, the assembled multitude was given until the next meeting to consider it. We considered it directly. Was it within the law? Oh, let ' em, just let ' em thwart justice and popular will! Thus M. S. Goggin, M. Foot, etc. We made a plan, marched around Taylor, and, returning to our halls, did not poison the soup of the despots. The next meeting was called to vote on the half vote. En masse we betook ourselves — to the Lib lawn, and danced en baccanale while the august tyrants went up to the chapel. What did they see? No quorum? No quorum! For the quorum was couchant on the Lib lawn. Doubtless they looked at us from the windows and discussed us in envenomed terms. We laughed, ha ha, and rolled where the green- sward was to be; and it so happened that we were invited to return, and that in the spring we elected Marjorie Martin President of Undergrad. H. H. McC.

DOES anyone remember a certain period of her life when her hands were chron- ically inches thick with Montgomery County earth ? When, for a month, she got up at 6 o ' clock every morning to the tune of a triangle played by Libby Matt? When she rode joyously to the cornfields in good Sir Henry, chauffed by H. Hill? When, among the brighter events of the day were the harmony parties over the canning tables — Pallas Athena and tomatoes in happy combination, where Mary Porter and Laura Ward, ably assisted by all the mutes, cheered us on ? Not more sweetly did the tomato juice slide down our elbows than the liquid notes into our souls. This was the privilege of the fall workers at the Farm (Baldwin School edition, 1918). The September division had another opportunity for musical education. Did anyone suspect why Mrs. Frederick Manning so willingly obliged us with That Is Love (vocal solo by H. H. T ). How could we have cut corn all day, noses red, sneezing one thousand times, if we had not been able to look forward to the nicest boy I ever knew, who was Charles Augustus Fortescue — a song by the above-mentioned artist ? In lighter vein we entertained ourselves during the day by throwing away all of Henrietta ' s carefully picked green tomatoes, or mayhap peddling a potato or two in the village under a weeping sk) ' . The greatest helps to the life of the party were the Misses Spry and Dimon. Abigail Camp Still-more-spry could, at the lunch table, chuck a week ' s orders at Helen, plan the meals for five days ahead, and calm the cook, at the same time telling the rest of the company that little food and much exercise were the two rules for keeping fit. Does Custis ever see Ruth Wallace nowadays? Whither is fled that visionary gleam ? And does Ann Godwin still farm every summer for pure love of the soil ? Or do the June farmers look blank when you mention Abernethy ' s and the potatoes? Well, maybe they do — but we doubt it. Margaret V. Morton. 1921 was a rarther large class for its age, which was about two years, and lived in a small but costly college, with sumshious buildings and a swimming pool filled with nearly fresh water. One dav the graduate students which were a searious body decided to ask a poet Mr. Vachel Lindsey by name to lecture to them. Mr. Lindsey was a reddish-haired gentleman with a clever looking pink face and a voice that he liked to sing with. He gladly came, but when he got there ' 21 hit on a plan. Vachel they said. We have a very fine room done in brown and probably there is some food left there from last time, anyway some pieces of crackers in the beds, and we will give you some tea there if you like and Miss Jane Brown will be there whose glorious dark hair you wrote a poem about if you will come. This short but cheerful conversation made Vachel quite forget the graduates and he turned around and said, rarther bashully, I will willingly come ' 21 — hark, there is four o ' clock striking now. Then he came into the room with a nervous walk, and lifting up his coat tails squatted himself down in the corner. Well, what do you do with yourselves at college, said Mr. Lindsey, feeling rarther hot and ignorant. Oh, we go to levies at P. T. ' s said ' 21, where we eat marons and talk perlitely about publok baths and that sort of thing. Well, some people do, said Mr. Lindsey, kindly. Just then a cheerful smell greeted him and he partook of some lovely chocolate with fuzz on top. I see you have a lot of books, said Mr. Lindsey, in a jelous tone. Who are they by? Oh, by nobody of importance, said ' 21, with a dainty snuffle. Mr. Lindsey was rarther peevish at this as he saw two books of his own among them, but just then a young lady, who in a half-dirty T-shirt and hair that was cut off short and frizzed, thought she looked quite the thing, said, Oh, Mr. Lindsey, won ' t you speak some of your sweet poems? That I will, said Mr. Lindsey readily, but you must promise to roar like lions when I flap my elbows. They all got rarther red, but seeing it was the idear they did. When he had recited a long poem in a singing voice they thanked him perlitely and told him he must go back to dress for the evening purformance where the perfessors would be anxshious for their turn to roar. 37 PIRATE CREW KIDNAPS L922 FOR SOPHOMORE DANCE At the Sign of the Scarlel Moth, v. line brown ale Unwed from copper casks among a gory pirate creWj the Freshmen found last Saturday that they had been kidnapped and were many salt leagues from twentieth cen- tury Bryn Mawr. The Sophomore dance, more elaborately and ingeniously staged than by previous classes, proved as color- ful a spectacle to 1922 as Banner Show itself. Pewter glittered from the long bar at one end of the gym, where apples were piled, bright cups clinked, and many a mariner stopped to broach a cask and jest with the graceful bar-maid, M. K. Southall. At the other fend logs blazed with red paper in a huge stone chimney-piece, lighted by red lanterns, and ringed with settles, made from gym tables turned end-wise. Black skins were deep underfoot around the hearth. The Skull and Cross-bones, quartered with ramping lions and galleons sailing on the Spanish Main, lined the walls. Through the small panes of the Swedish ladder hung against the wall could be seen a distant castle over the blue. Pirate Passion Wins Applause In the midst of the revelry, four roister- ing blades rolled up to the bar and de- manded, Come, wench, we want a drink; we come ashore through a fearful gale. With brimming cups they leaned over the tables, intent on their cards and dice. Rivalling to express their devotion in ap- propriate phrases from countless college songs, M. P. Kirkland and B. Ferguson be- sought the bar-maid to be theirs. M. Foot, the cynic, stroked drooping mustaehios, and stretching back in his chair, commented as M. P. Kirkland, snarling in disappointed rage, cursed, Hireusousai soi deine! After a mad jig by P. Ostroff, urged on by hoarse shouts and clapping, the pirates bade farewell to the Freshmen in a really memorable song by H. Hill, ending, You ' ve seen our canvas reflecting the moon, But called it whiteeaps, it vanished so soon : So now you ' ll know us, though moondown calls each wandering shade, And to oblivion our black-hulled galleon then must fade. Editor ' s Note: This is the only pleasant write-up we ever had in the News. It was written by members of 1919 and 1921. 39 1919 WE CANNOT know your feelings when you first saw your very red, very numerous offspring peppering the campus and athletic fields in the hockey season. But we can well understand that the sight of the scarlet strange dawn , which was us, made you voice your longing for the rose-colored familiar sunset , which was ' 17. In spite of the fact that you did voice it quite frequently, we thought you were the best — leaped for joy when your banner hung on the gym (we were kept leaping most of the time), sighed rapturously at your singing — were, in short, as highly inflammable in our hearts as we appeared to be in our hockey skirts. All of this might seem to indicate that you were great only in the eyes of your enthusiastic freshmen. But that is not true. For now that we can view you with the critical eyes of seniors, our conclusions are the same. You are still superior — the best in athletics, the best in singing. Here ' s to our Juniors! 40 IDenuigl) for tfjc ZDcnbigljitcs THOUGH the inhabitants of Denbigh pull together harmoniously as a rule, they have had a good deal to put up with and correct in each other. Foremost is Jane ' s random cat-hoarding with its consequent trail of devastation. Still. Jane claims the last, Agnes, proved its proud and ancient Persian lineage by its selection of Irv ' s box of manuscripts in preference to all else. Then, of course, it is very distressing to have Confetti become so worldly wise that she greets every anecdote with Now you hush instead of accepting from her elders and betters advice on dyeing a waist in checks by using checked Rit, or the advisability of rolling all one ' s furniture into the bathroom weekly for a scrubbing! We have tried to cure Lube of holding in her false teeth when she laughs, and Sniff of her inordinate stuffing at table (one string bean and four grains of rice). Genia, too, has been rather a dis- turbing influence ever since the night of the Famous Bite. It was the night before briefs were due, and by 3 A. M. the nerves of the literary lights in the Rabbit Hutch were a bit frayed. Of course it was tactless of Chloe to drop a tennis ball on Genia ' s head; but how could she expect to be bitten in the finger as a result? Besides, what class would not blush to have one of its members open at table a letter containing a golden curl, returned to its owner by a rejected but noble swain? Chloe ' s undeveloped sense of modesty is another sore joint. What could be more awful than the decollete costume of brief petticoat, loose hair, bare legs, and tr ain of nondescript tapes in which she stood calmly in the show-case door, rubbering at Chickie and, as she thought, two boys from the blind school at Overbrook. Unfortunately, they turned out to be Eleanor Collins ' brother and a friend from Haverford! (Sorry, Eleanor.) Still, as we have said, the Denbighites can unite in pursuit of higher things, as witnessed by their superb reproduction of The Woman God Forgot, with all the Aztec actors thereof neatly but slightly clad in tea-cups and fox-furs. Luckily they were unconscious that the performance was a death blow to Becky and Augusta, who looked in vain for so much as the immoral pink undershirt! Last of all are the clubs, beginning with the engagement club. Personnel: Miss Ehlers, B. Stokes, Genia, Teddy, Chickie, Chloe and Irv. The first step off has to treat the others, but an unfortunate undercurrent of deception has characterized it all along, and so the members are still hungry (for further details apply to hall rep.). We are sorry now we didn ' t include Genia ' s roommates, Ferth and Holly ! The club for the suppression of Teddie ' s conversation about Jamie and the Welles twins has had a notable success. We are thinking now of turning our energies to rescuing Biffie from the depths of her solitaire passion. Finally, we would call your attention to Denbigh ' s gallant protest against money making vocations. The Mother ' s Club has a large membership: President, J. Lattimer ; vice-president, C. Garrison ; secretary, E. Harris ; member, A. Taylor. We feel that this organization will have a widespread influence, though temporarily 41 checked by internal dissension (Ann feels that she has been vice-president from the start, but was downed by a unanimous vote of the other members; at the next meeting the creation of a treasurership for her will be discussed — a safe move as there are no funds) ! It has been rumored that the president will be asked to resign on account of her increasing sense of mission, but she has taken the stand that social work will only fit her the better for office, as it will make her the Greatest Mother in the World (or second greatest) ! — Clarinda Garrison. peaux Stratagem THIS winter the Williams Cap and Bells Club sent out a letter in which they stated that for the first time for a period of 25 years it was possible to see a college presentation of The Beaux Stratagem. This statement is not so false as it seems at first glance. For if the cutting which we were told was done in our case had been neglected in theirs it probably would take just about that length of time to give the complete play. If this surmise is correct, we trust that they will omit a curtain song, — or, if not, at least change the wording to Give ere you leave us An hour to our play. — H. D. H. 42 Snfirmarp JUileg Found useful by the Staff. 1. No student may develop a disease (or break a bone) except between eight and eight-thirty A. M. and four and five-thirty P. M. If she fails to comply with this rule she has not got it (or hasn ' t broken it), but will be fined one dollar ($1.00) for thinking she has. 2. If a student has broken a leg, give her calomel immediately after setting it, to keep her walking on it as much as possible. 3. Crutches should be at least six inches too short, to produce a maximum number of blisters on the hands. 4. If castor oil, fire balls, camphor pills, and iodine, do not cure it, cut it open — preferably with a dull scissors — and watch the wheels go round. They may prove something. Having looked, try more castor oil, and sew it up or not, ad lib. 5. There is no diet between orange juice with milk toast and mutton with cabbage. 6. Be as mysterious as possible about everything. 7. A student may never inquire what is the matter with her. If she does, smile as though you knew, to prove your authority. (You are not expected to know; Miss Mills is the only one who does that, unless she cares to tell Dr. Sands.) 7A. This rule also applies to a student who comes to inquire about a friend. Vary the procedure here by whispering that she is doing nicely but you can divulge no more. This is reassuring to the inquirer. It convinces her that her friend is dying of pneumonia when she has the cold that is called pharyngitis and laryngitis on the warden ' s report. 8. If you bandage anything, be sure to cut off the circulation. 9. If you apply a splint, see that it presses on the break and makes the bone come through the skin. 10. If a student has the flu, be sure she uses the same wash-basin as every other patient who hasn ' t. 11. It is not etiquette to ring the bell for the nurse when she is receiving a beau in the sun parlor. Be sure this is understood. 12. The sun parlor may be occupied by a student in the convalescent stage only when the nurse has taken her caller out for a walk. 13. Students may no longer visit their friends at the infirmary. It disturbs the maid while cleaning the floor. Advice to students. 1. Give up all hope, all ye who enter here. A. Interpretation. Be damned or at least dead, before you go there for any- thing more vital than two reports and a quiz. B. W. 43 1922 THE spice of life is not lacking in you, ' 22, for yours is a variety of attributes. They range from histrionic ability to such leadership in the C. A. as required fresh committees for its fullest development. Art and morality — you have shown us that a happy combination of the two is more possible than the Greenwich Village Follies would lead one to believe. As for your art, we love it. Not since the days of your grandparents, 1918, have we heard cleverer songs. We like your plays, which have a light and skillful touch. And it is pleasant to realize (after seeing Trelawney) that the light of your dramatic lamp did not go out when Cornelia left you for the Comedie. The moral side of your character, the reforms you perpetrated, do not arouse such spontaneous appreciation. Blue laws go a bit hard with those of a red heredity. But if we have at times missed the invigorating sting of interclass feeling, we are really glad that our class baby, of the class of 1941, will know a B.M.C. where a senior talks to a freshman as man to man . And in our own day of course we have at bottom been glad of the harmony which, except for the animal episode of our extreme youth, has marked our life together. 44 Pembroke (Cast ALWAYS there arc the sheep and the goats — in every community it is so, and the only variation is in the standard of division. In East the standard has been one of chastity. Up in the cool blue atmosphere of Nancy ' s room the Purity League was crystallized. It would be indelicate to lay bare for publication the creed and tenets of this organization. Its ideals relative to the behavior of the sexes toward one another surpass those of Clarissa Harlowe. Marynia was its rigorous president. Of her rigor and justice we had evidence after the Christmas holidays when a certain member was like to lose her membership by reason of too free experi- mentation . Foot excused her on the old plea of acting on the scientific impulse to investigate. If Marynia had a vulnerable point, it was her passion for science — and yet, so soon as Easter, she was advocating an amendment to the constitution, prepara- tory to her Boston trip. Downstairs in Morrie ' s more exotic surroundings gathered those others, headed by Ida and Louise, who were so far outside the pure pale. Here the criterion was not Is he pure? but rath er Does he ask the question in those passionate words, My God, little girl, how I love you! The cup of muggle, which makes the whole college kin, happily united the Pure and the Passionate at night, sheep and goats (I have carefully refrained from deciding which are which) feeding peaceably together. Discussions were many, long and fruitless. Faith in Potter and Guy remains unshaken ; the League still searches for the Purest Man. Perhaps by this time one of its members has found the pearl in one of the vast collegiate oysters, thereby proving that the Purity Leaguers are not after all the goats. — Victoria Evans.

Dramatis Personae: 1 Tender Shepherd 1st flock, ready to eat themselves into emotional satiety on whatever green pastures he may lead them to. 2nd flock, guests of the first, but with the characteristics of wolves in sheeps ' clothing. A resume of the plot follows. Before opening the meeting, the T. S. looks about for the defiant faces of those who have been brought that they may be exposed to the Light even if they exhibit a negative reaction toward it. Then one of the 1st flock asks eagerly, Dr. , what do you think is the distinctive element in the progress which has gone forward so far in the last 25 years? The T. S. It was on the crowded streets of San Francisco, in the midst of the bustle and throng of one of our modern cities that I heard from the lips of a little newsboy the voice of our generation, ' Let ' s Go! ' One of the wolves herd mutters, But where do we go from here, yes, where do we go from here ? The T. S. catching the inflection if not the words, S. I. N. yes Sin. S and N are the wall that keeps I, me, (censored). Each of us has a heart need! It is up to each one of us to find a brother ' s heart need. Another one of the 1st flock adds co-operatively, And if we who have had our splendid advantages can reach these people we can make the world mean something to them so that no matter how poor they are they can share in our great happiness. Here a wolf questions whether the evolutionary process may not interfere with the time rate of reform of the world. The T. S. is supplied with a subject to prod towa;d the fold; the flock mills into a secure circle, settled for the night; the wolves bare their unanimous fangs for a moment; and the discussion (of the kind meant by the Board when they said, I do hope we can get some good discussion ) begins. After Faith has wrestled with Biology for some three hours, the wolf throws off the sheepskin and down the gauntlet. An expression of horror is reflected from face to face around the circle of sheep. One can foresse certain personally labelled prayers at future meetings. The Lights go out, but the Light . . . — Helen D. Hill. 52 Rockefeller WHERE, oh where are the days when our only care was to arrange sonic new- revenge on 1918; when quizzes were new and not yet to he feared (even by Mary) ; when our idle moments were spent in devising pie-beds and spider- webs! Those delightful times came before P. T. announced the new merit rule, or we had conscription, or May Day, or Orals. Since those innovations, times have changed. Freshman year there were thirty odd of us in Rock — a raucous crowd who dis- turbed the accustomed tranquility of M. F. and ' 18. ' 20 tried to reduce us by losing us in the cellar and reading rules to us, and a few ( ' . e., Marg, who had been brought up in an atmosphere of truth) believed what they said; but then Laura giggled and made them mad, so they couldn ' t be impressive. We soon learned the location of all the rooms by the simple process of locking each other into strange rooms for the night. Confinement was but temporary for Jean, however, who climbed out of Holly ' s window and across the wall into the room next door. Our chief amusement was rough- housing; and when properly stimulated we achieved some really masterly performances in decorating Seniors ' rooms. Result, Betty Houghton had us summoned before Self- Gov. for hazing. Our activities in this line have been unsurpassed except by our arguments, which evoluted from philosophy to hygiene and social service, to marriage (just ask Laura. Baity and Boz) and the next college president. Nor have the elements of culture been entirely neglected, as witness Betty Jones ' classes in socia l etiquette. In fact, all sorts of formative influences were at work, for ' 17 lingered longer in Rock, and one night they held a touching little ceremony in the bathroom, in which Dan McGinty and Laura were conspicuous. Dan has had some narrow escapes — once when ' 22 could have painted him blue on Freshman night, if they had only thought of it, and once when Miss Applebee blew the whistle before he was all the way up the pool. All of this happened Freshman year. After that we had a jazz band, and at last got Dorothy Walter safely married. Mrs. Vorys and the flue arrived together, but think not that they aroused the same emotions, for Ad immediately became a light to lighten the darkness of the worst quarantine. Compulsory drill was replaced the next year by compulsory paper flowers — who shall say which was worse? — and new celeb- rities appeared in our midst when Barty took to singing Mabel and Betty displayed her accurate aim with lemon pie. But many have been our losses. They left by ones and twos and threes. We might almost be said to be more famous for the Rockites who have left than for those who . And we count Miss Adair as a Rockite. But others have come to us too — Mary O ' Neill, our enfant terrible, and Wigs, who is a delight not only on Thursday nights, but throughout the week. We shall be sorry to leave. Thelma has tested everyone ' s intelligence, Grace has told us jokes ( ?) and Matt has done little nameless acts of kindness for everyone. And Klenke and Barty have had an eye to the future and have brought up the Freshmen in the way they should go. In short, 1921 Rock, we congratulate ourselves on our career. 53 Come, %tt Wl Reason Cogetfjer l O] OME, let us reason together, said Dr. Derry. You can tell a Bryn Mawr jirl, but you can ' t tell her much. A lie is an abomination before the Lord, but an ever present help in time of trouble.

(Keep your spirits up by pouring spirits down.) I know two tunes: one is Yankee Doodle and the other isn ' t. Come, let us reason together. Little feet tramping, tramping . This minus the outlines occasionally copied from the board and minus many ' ' said Vivian to Violet jokes, is an exact copy of any of Dr. Derry ' s Minor Economics notes. This same paragraph, delivered from a soap box and substituting a few new jokes and a few fiery phrases, constitutes any of the five speeches delivered by certain Bolshevist members of the class. — Eleanor Donnelley. 8ut Ndrjam President 54 £lu excursion GTfjrougf) ti)c %)aii of jfflerion {Specially contributed by Alexander Pope) Behold where Merlon rears its lofty head, The cradle of the spirit of the red: We enter now the stately spacious hall — ( )bserve the naked Venus on the wall — Hut fairer Venuses than these we find Within their perfumed boudoirs are reclined — Here on our left we see petite Irene, Writing or sewing on a small machine ; (Now memory will pause and shed a tear For Jonesy who once taught deportment here.

If we were writing in Freshman or even in Sophomore year this would have been easy. But in the wisdom of our maturer days we grew i nto an attitude of liking for individuals and indifference to groups. The hatchet is buried, and although we would not disinter it, the new era of unbroken calm grows dull at times and we find ourselves thinking fondly of the days when you were here — and peace was not. 57 f)e J2tgf)t before tfje ifflotning lifter Dramatis Personae: Leech: A person who has no class notes to speak of and has read one out of eight books.

I suppose you know everything and have been studying for days! My dear, I liter- ally don ' t know a thing. You should see my notes. I can ' t make anything out of them. As to reading — well, of course ! You people who raise the standard make me sick. I suppose you know all about Spenser. What were his dates anyway ? Thanks. Have you any reading notes ? ( Pause, during which the Suckee sighs, nods, and turns to her notes to reopen negotiations with the spirit of the professor.) Leech: It ' s awfully cold in my room. Do you mind if I sit here and study if I keep perfectly quiet? Suckee (with enthusiasm) : Do. Leech (embarking upon a piece of salt-water taffy) : You know I have the worst headache. I simply couldn ' t study all day. Have you ever heard of Horace Walpole? I ' m sure I never have. I ' ve got to get merit on this quiz. (In an aggrieved manner, seeing that the Suckee has apparently gone into retreat. ) Oh, would you mind telling me just one thing? Suckee: What? Leech: Well, exactly who were the poets of the Eighteenth Century? Suckee (bitterly) : Is there anything else you want to know? Leech (with a quavering voice) : Oh, you know I don ' t want to bother you. Don ' t trouble, please, if you ' re busy. Goodness, my head aches! Suckee (wearily) : Oh well, the first really important one Leech (who has been greedily attentive, like a lap-dog at tea time) : Oh, that ' s great. Thanks a lot.

Leech: I guess I ' ll go, although I can ' t go to bed yet. Good-night. Suckee turns out light and sees the door shut and sighs with relief. A head reappears in the door. Leech: What did you say Walpole ' s dates were? Suckee (yawning): I ' ve forgotten. (Exit the head.) Suckee waits until the footsteps are out of hearing, then she shuts the window again and turns on the light. Enfin seul ! 58 (Elje Desolate Diner or Jf unreal $?nfeemeat£i JUNIOR-SENIOR supper play! The words alone arc mirth provoking (pro- voking, certainly). The gym was draped in black to resemble a dining car. The Seniors were quick to appreciate this emblem of mourning, and their sensi- tive souls were touched with such sadness that not even Marynia ' s perfectly ripping pants could make them smile. Even Chloe in Zinc-0 and a red flannel wrapper covered with purple petunias (borrowed with infinite tact from a slovak grad because its our class color you know ) retreating from her accidentally locked exit into the arms of the grinning waiters failed to cheer them. Alice was particularly sad because, though at her urgent, one might almost say peremptory request, the seating had been rearranged to give her a place beside her Jewel, at the last moment her heart ' s desire did not turn up. She consoled herself in one corner of the gym with her second-best, dancing the Hoover Cabinet, so-called because it economizes space. Well, anyway the food was good and the delightful melodrama of Alice and Darth and their hero Hugh was thoroughly enjoyed by the waiters. — Helen Irvix Murray.

So, in measured terms, we might praise you for your tennis, and for the fighting spirit which in a certain water-polo game made us glad when the whistle blew ; and we might remark upon the excellence of your Caesar and Cleopatra. All of this, and more besides, would be quite correct.

Bettina Warburg. 63 illuminations! of tfje Hifa I REFER in my title not to the hundred yards of curly brass and three circlets of speckled lights which were suddenly suspended in our midst last year, and which thrust themselves most unpleasantly into one ' s impassioned contemplation of the beautiful red and black maze above. No, it is not of these I would speak, but of certain well known high lights in a Libby life: the Merion mele in front of the left hand fire; Pickle on the main alley receiving a steady stream of lap callers; Delly philosophising to Sandy in inaudible tones just outside the new book room door. A quiet place to rest and sleep is the Lib (some people can sleep in a thunderstorm), but not without its little fun. That some find life there a little drab at times is evidenced by the following poem, which was handed to me : Six mid-years close before me A January day Three yellow walls around me, Two inkwells and a tray. I lean upon my blotter And yearn my heart away. But we cannot sink into utter dullness, for the monotony may be lightened any moment by the entrance of a crowd of visitors eager to behold the painted features of our president; or our attention may be intrigued from our books by the appearance of the Oxford graduate trundling a pile of wood; or, best of all, a cat may come in, and what, I ask you, could be more novel and amusing than a cat? If you think the Lib is dull, it is simply because you are an amateur at lib life, or, perhaps, instead of joining the upper strata, you have fallen in with the inhabitants of the underworld — a dingy people, living among piles of books. The real Libbites remain as much as possible in the upper regions, and are a simple race, prone to sleep and laughter.

T. from Rock arch at 8.40 on an October morning. She wears a turban and under one arm carries a marble seat with dolphin arms to be installed in the deanery, and under the other an Arab Sheik, for the same purpose. She is preceded by eight little black boys, who double shuffle toward Taylor steps chanting : Thou Gracious Inspiration, thou busy bee, Mistress and Mother, all hail, P. T. Goddess of Wisdom, thy talk divine Hath beaconed all Araby to thy shrine. And we thy black boys would thy servants be, Thy boots to polish in the deanery. As P. T. ascends senior steps she hears a confused noise in the distance as the college awakens and streams into the chapel. P. T.: This is the Taylor primeval, the tessellate tiles and the statues: As of old when the leaders of women came to bow down at my footstool, Came in their robes academic, came to inquire of my knowledge, How to wrest woman suffrage from congress — So in this new generation their daughters are reverently waiting Clad in their robes academic, are waiting for me, their apostle. Black boys hold open door, chanting, Hie, haec, hoc, Huius, huius, huius, Huic, huic, huic. Enterting the chapel, P. T. stops in amazement as she sees the rows filled with students in bathing suits and gay hockey skirts, and the platform occupied by C. M. K. A.-p-1-b-e, the spirit of college activities. C. M. K. A.

K. 75 S Pallab of Pembroke WAt t T HERE was a hall, by name Pern. West, A very pleasant spot, Where life was gay, and friendships warm- (Although the toast was not). Now in this hall lived fifteen girls. (They all were bright and sweet.) And some fed late each Sunday morn — And some ate Shredded Wheat. Will those who lived there e ' er forget The phases Darn went through ? From saxophone to playful goat; Accordions; bath salts, too. Will Luz forever take delight In tripping people ' s heels? A childish sport — and yet, recall Her dignity at meals! Will Mabel ever leave her roof, And sleep as others do ? And will she yodel down the halls When she is eighty-two? (I think she will.) Of Emily and her fifty beaux I could examples cite, And tell of visits to the Inn. I could — but is it right? At Kat and her hilarious jests We ' ve laughed through many a meal; (And let me add that Kat herself Did laugh quite a good deal). Now let us sing of blushing Mag (For that ' s a serious case). She is a worldly, wicked vamp, Though innocent of face. 78 Oh, Slightly, giving mental tests And saving chicken ' s lives: Cecilc, with ever hurrying step, And very large brown eyes; And Ellen ripping sweaters out, Then knitting them again; And Jimmy, very fond of pools; — Oh, praise them all, my pen! To Henrietta, neat and spry; To Maria ' s lucid mind ; Louise ' s giggle, Hooven ' s pills, And Dot ' s rocks, ranged in line; To all of these I sing a song, And add to it a cheer — And, as for me, I wish this were Our youthful Freshman year! Louise F. Cadot. 70 f)e Gentle Sntrian THE limousine, so essential to the comfort of the guests of the English Club sped through the winter twilight. Within were Helen and Mary, Pond and Tagore. Where shall I find him? inquired Dr. Tagore in a high monotonous voice. Who? asked Helen. The man of my heart. Oh. Then followed a monologue by the Indian gentleman and after a few more attempts to turn it into conversation Helen decided that he must be rehearsing his speech for the evening and settled back for a nap. Mr. Pond, however, was not sleepy. He constantly burst forth with, Gosh! Mr. Tagore, just look at that sky. Poetical? I ' ll say so. And Gosh! That ' s pretty. but the Sage continued to murmur like Tennyson ' s Brook. Ponds may come and Ponds may go, but he . . . Gosh, here we are! said Helen as the car drove into Pern. Arch. A t dinner Mr. Tagore rehearsed another speech to a hushed bunch of listeners at one table while Mr. Pond kept the other in roars of laughter. Afterward there was a glimmer of conversation which quickly died when Mr. Tagore said, ! met a man in London once; he was an agent, too, Mr. Pond. Then Mr. Pond expatiated on Mr. Tagore as though he were one of Madame Tussaud ' s best: He does not use rouge or other cosmetics. All his clothes were made especially for him in Japan, — At this point the wax work mur- mured sweetly, Is Mr. Pond talking about me? And some irreverent soul piped up, Now it ' s Mr. Tagore ' s turn to tell where Mr. Pond got his clothes. The manufacture of B.V. . . . oblig- ingly began Mr. Tagore, but here Helen inter- rupted with, I think we ' d better go down to the gym, don ' t you, Mr. Pond ? Gosh! Yes! said the irreproachable. Helen Irvin Murray. so 1924 IN SOME ways you are rather like every other Freshman class. The regular autumnal letter in the News has called you fresh when you were not fresh. And your first athletic song was peculiar. (It is still peculiar.) In some ways you are different. For instance, in the quantity of debutantes; in your ingenuous lack of constraint before upper classmen; and in the number of people you had on Varsity. These and other cheerful facts prove that, not only in the shade of its Hockey skirts, the light blue is becoming less pale. Gloria in excelsis. SI ©alton (With apologies to Kipling.)

' s Struggle for economic Snbepenbence WHEN Minnie Thomas was just eighteen years old she was as lovely a slip of a girl as ever blossomed like a lily from the gutters of the Baltimore slums. So it was one day that Lionel Morehead swinging through Sweeney Street espied her emptying swill out of the front window, and ' twas not long ' ere he had wooed and won her. At first all was sunshine and happiness and twelve little ones blessed the union. Their names were Charley, George Barton, Samuel Claggett, Lucy, Esther, Constance, Henry Nevill Sanders, Georgiana, Ethel Sabin, James Llewellyn and James Leuba Morehead, and Delly who was the last to see the li ght. But now a storm broke. Lionel grew neglectful and niggardly. Minnie ' s heart was racked by Charley ' s toes protruding from holey boots, while the twins, Samuel and Constance, were forced to take turns at their flannels. Something had to be done, and Minnie remembered how in the good old days she trimmed her bonnets — bonnets envied by no less a person than Mrs. Russell Sage. She timidly suggested to Lionel that she set up a hat shop and pay a few bills. A hat shop! said Lionel, and swore a great oath, kicking George Barton, who merely smiled patiently and indicated with swimming eye that he wouldn ' t return it. By God you shall never work for a living so long as I can use two hands (and feet) even if you are starving. I will sacrifice all twelve children rather than my honor. And he broke the ear drums of James Llewellyn who was a sickly little boy anyway. Minnie dared not violate her marriage oath, but for the sake of the children she resorted to degrading methods which harrowed her pride. She cried for eight days, on the last of which Lionel swore his greatest oath, flung out his permission, trounced Georgiana and permanently disabled Henry Nevill. At this display of male brutality Minnie became aware that Lionel was a true man, and in a noble fury she rushed to the window and hung out a number of hats for advertisement. At once she had a success, but in the daj ' s of her greatest triumph she did not forget the family. Every three hours, or was it four, she would rush down from her uptown shop to care for little Delly, and she took a tender pleasure in telephoning Izzie, the hired girl, to produce a No. 1 luncheon when Esther and Lucy invited their play- mates in. She was now a millionaire, and one evening as she sat by the fire smiling at her little brood, which was being hypnotized by James H. whose psychic gifts were developing rapidly in his father ' s absence, there came a knock at the door. This brought Henry Nevill out of his trance and he began to scream loudly at sight of a hat pin stuck (by J. H.) through his thumb. A familiar oath rang through the room, striking terror to the hearts of all. In at the door stumbled a sodden wreck, Lionel. S4 Minnie , he muttered miserably. Minnie, I am broke. Lend me $3.60 to put the business on its feet again! Minnie surveyed him calmly with the perfect poise which comes to a woman when she is economically independent. No, Lionel, she said, in clarion tones. I will not lend you $3.60 to put the busines s on its feet. I am no longer Minnie More- head but Minnie Thomas (nee), and earning my own income to spend as I will, wisely like a woman, not viciously like a man. It is my business now to be hard hearted, for the sake of my children. At this the miserable wretch burst into D. T. ' s at her feet. The twelve children set up a great hue and cry. Ethel, who was a sweet little thing and whose heart was not yet so hard as her mother could have wished, tried to soothe her father ' s writhings by promising that she would break open her penny bank and supply him with at least the sixty cents of the $3.60 required. James H. merely gazed at his father, entranced by such a show of animal behavior. Constance very practically threw some cold water over the prostrate rake, whose enfeebled constitution could not withstand such treatment, for he gave a last chilly shudder and lay still. Minnie merely signified to Izzie that she might send for the undertaker as she could not waste her time in such menial tasks. The children formed an awestruck but relieved circle round their deceased parent. Esther thoughtfully carried Delly in her arms that he might not miss so moving a moment, and although James Llewellyn and Henry Nevill were heard to mutter that theirs was a nasty father anyway , George Barton reproached them all by lifting his pale blue eyes to heaven and saying softly, O Lord, we thank thee for this beautiful evening!

S7 TO is a PMgfjlp 3JUumineb iHamtfcript (If ' ith apologies to Mrs. Bernard Berenson.) RE-AULLY, my soul-mate and I always have believed that the alumnae were gifted with aesthetic susceptibilities, even when we observed them trotting ab-aht in their sunbonnets and aprons in the bright June weathah. We nevah doubted that their sojourn undah Taylah Towah had left its mark. Now we have absolute proof. On first sight of these remarkable pictures, whose theme is our deah campus, we said to each othah, This is an alumna. And when, one merry noon- tide, we saw in a little basement shop these glorious paintings offered for sale, we jumped at the opportunity and, hugging each othah, said, How much? They said, $4.50. We said, This is IT, IT, IT!!!! Transpose yourselves in speereet to a most comfortable divan from which alone such mastahpieces can be enjoyed. Let us now gaze first upon one which might be called, An Eearthquake in the Library. The wavy contours of the sombre mass of the building convey the feeling of impending disastah, while the creamy textuah of the fountain recalls something intimately familiah to us all. Its companion pieces, Fire Works at Kubla Khan ' s Ice Palace and The Hershey Apple Tree have succeeded at least in bringing the stars delightfully close. In the idyllic scene, the Pueblo and the Poplar, we see that the frank yellow and green are boldly contrahsted and the whole has a feverish brilliancy. Another of these hors d ' oeuvres is popularly called Cherry Tree Recovering from the Mange. I am not surprised if this audience does not like it. As Tagore said, after three hours of meditative silence, it takes forty years of intensive training to comprehend these things. J. A. Flexner H. H. McC. Stone.

My reasons are not numerous For cleaning out your halls, It ' s just because I ' m humorous, And chic in overalls. And now if e ' er by chance I roam Within the learned door Of any library at home To get the last Tagore, I weep, for it remindeth me Of that old man I used to see, Who cleaned the lib at B. M.

Something not so well understood is the reason for certain reactions of other classes and individuals toward us. Upon this subject the following quotation from a well-known Psychology book may be illuminating: That colors have a profound psychological effect on human beings is a fact which should be appreciated. Used in small quantities the color red, for instance, is most stimulating, both in the way of helping to overcome depression and quick- ening the intellectual processes. But when used in any great amount it tends to overstimulation, with resultant nerve-strain. There are some people so constituted that they become violently excited, fall into convulsions, or faint, if obliged, even for a short time, to look at anything vividly red. We feel that this explains many things. 92 fwy VJLLU Ui w ? tJn if mbktitti, 1920=192 1 All-Round Championship Won by 1921 Captain — E. Cecil M. Foot E. Taylor M. Kirkland W.
