The first adven- ture was a physical examination which proved something not quite so much fun; but it was soon over and they could look back on it and laugh. And you may be sure Miss Applebee laughed loudest of all, for she was a peach of a good sport and always saw to it that Bryn Mawr won the Hockey championship if any- one could. The spirit that prevailed was wonderful. No door was too heavy for the Freshmen to hold open and they did it with a grin a mile long. Well, perhaps not quite a mile long, but an awfully long grin anyway. Everybody always went to all the hockey games, and a Huzza! for the team it was and with a will too. It was bully, just bully. But college was not all fudge and skittles for these fun-loving girls. They must perforce sacrifice some of the girlish luxuries to which they were accustomed at home. No longer were they allowed the solace of an after-dinner cigarette, or a night-cap before going to bed. However, precisely across from the beautiful college domain lived a kindly gentleman named Mr. Jack who had donated his lovely garden to the use of the hard-working students. It was to this spot that they retired to soothe their jangled nerves with Lucky Strikes (advt.). When Miss Park finally announced that smoking would be permitted on the campus she was given a Greek cheer with nine sky-rockets on the end of it for her plucky statement. The students would do anything for Miss Park, Miss Park would do anything for the students, and the students would do anything for the students, and Miss Park would do anything for Miss Park. There, that clears that up and what a relief you may be sure. Later in the autumn our healthy, nature-loving girls followed a hard and fast Freshman tradition and hiked all the long, long way to historic Valley Forge. This walk was rather a plucky thing to do and the folks at home might not have liked it very well, but the Freshmen of the best college in the world set their jaws and determined to be worthy of Our Gracious Inspiration . They saw some very interesting cannons and climbed the look-out tower, and when they got home at last, you may be sure the canned beans and horse-meat and bad coffee tasted good to them after that long hike. And were there any complaints? I should say not, for the first girl to complain would get the much coveted banner taken away from her class. Her whole class, mind you, so you see that if one girl, just one girl, was naughty the whole class would have to suffer. Then came Freshman Show, the jolliest lark of all. Even if all the girls do not graduate they will have gained a great, great deal of value out of their college days. They will have found Friendship. In this Freshman Show they learned to know each other, which was worth all the trouble and hardship in the world. It was simply great. They cheered and cheered the Juniors, their sister class, then the Juniors cheered them. The very nicest spirit prevailed always at Bryn Mawr. All the classes were like sisters in fact, and the grads too. It was just like one big family. And so the first happy year ended, the most carefree of the four, and all the bright faces and girlish figures scattered for the summer.

The first day of classes was a happy one. Rollicking voices echoed through the corridors, friends embraced friends, and even the somewhat grim old statues seemed to smile down benevolently on the merry throngs below. Bryn Mawr seemed just the nicest place ever to these girls after the four long months they had spent away following various pursuits. The first event of the year was Parade Night. For days beforehand the Sopho- mores sleuthed , trying for the honor of the class to learn what the Freshman song was to be. But the Class of 1930 was too clever by half for them. The evening came and the whole college frolicked along beside the brass band brandishing torches aloft. One junior fell into a ditch that had carelessly been left uncompleted, and as she fainted from pain and shock she gasped out, Save my C. A. girl! This just goes to show the spirit that prevailed. When the Class of 1929 failed to get the Freshman song you would have thought they might show their disappointment. But not they. They just cheered more loudly than ever like the bully good sports they were, and trooped off to the new movie palace, the Seville. Not many girls have a nice movie to go to every night and you may be sure that the Rover girls made the most of their opportunity. Soon our heroines settled down to their work and play. They were all earnest scholars and they spent long hours in the Library, or Lib , as they jocosely termed it, searching through the stacks and browsing in the New Book Room. Often they would become so absorbed that the welcome cry of Sandwiches! would scarcely stir them. But you must not think that our girls had lost all their fun- loving nature. No, indeed. They were still always ready for any sort of jollification, and many were the larks and merry times that they had together. Often they would gather at the Inn for tea; and every evening they danced the Charleston in the cor- ridor until the venerable rafters shook above them. Indeed their Warden often laughingly remarked that they would bring the roof down. As the winter wore on there came another great event. This was the dance the Sophomores gave for the Freshmen. It was an Apache dance and the great gymnasium was gaily decorated as the underworld of Paris. An uproariously good time was had by all, and everybody remarked afterwards that it was much more fun to dance with girls than with boys anyway. As Spring came to the beautiful campus the students blossomed forth as gaily as the buds on the trees. Varicolored berets and rainbow-hued coolie coats made the college a veritable garden of lovely color. On Little May day the Rover girls were up betimes arranging May Baskets for the Seniors. They had spent days beforehand ranging through the fields in search of spring flowers, and such tun as they had singing Awake Awake Oh Pretty Pretty Maid to their sister class in the grey dawn. The crowning joy of the year was the Garden Party. The Sophomores ran glee- fully up and down stairs fetching chairs and vases, and if they bumped into anybody they just gave a cheer and picked up what they had dropped and went on their way. But there was sadness mingled with the joy. The Rover girls felt their eyes filling with tears at the thought of their Seniors actually graduating and leaving the college for good and all.

To tell the truth they felt the responsibilities of being upper classmen weighing upon them. All of them had tender consciences and they could never forget that they must now always set an example to the younger girls about them. And also they had become acquainted with some of the hard facts of life in Hygiene the spring before. They had come to realize the dark as well as the sunny side of life. In point of fact they were women now and no longer children. As soon as they arrived they started right in to study for their German Oral although the ordeal was not to take place until spring. You may be sure they didn ' t grudge the time spent one bit, for the Dean had said it would help them with their Science and they felt she had about hit the nail on the head. They took their science very seriously and many were the long hours spent in the great bare Laboratory. The dogfish was quite a novelty for them. Indeed the sight of a dogfish was something terrific, but the Rover girls didn ' t mind, they just gave it a cheer and looked some more. No college can fail with such students. But it was not all work and no play for our little women. They spent many happy evenings together in the smoking room, listening earnestly to fine music on the gramophone and ardently discussing the philosophy of Gundelfinger and other leading writers of the day. Too, they found Bridge a great relaxation after a hard day of work, for their keen minds took delight in a game that required skill as well as luck . Throughout the winter the thoughts of all the students were on the great event of the year, for this was the year of Big May Day. All their spare moments were spent in preparation for this occasion. Such fun as they had one night making paper flowers. Everyone pitched in with a will and by ten-thirty the flowers were finished to the tune of Frankie and Johnnie . Then they all began to dance the 29th of May in the show-case. And so it went — cheer after cheer ringing through the hall until someone who had gone to bed opened her door and cried, For God ' s sake shut up! And you may be sure they shut up and with a will too, like the good sports that everyone is — or are. The red-letter day finally arrived. For several days beforehand it had rained cats and dogs and the spirits of all the students w-ere a bit below par. The day dawned bright and fair, however, and it almost seemed to the girls as though Providence was watching over them. The Rover girls jumped from their beds and speedily donned their Elizabethan costumes. They clapped their hands with joy when they saw the sun peeping in at them. Very early in the day crowds of spectators began to arrive and soon the beautiful campus in its mantle of spring was thronged. Then the festivities began. Groups of graceful girlish figures danced Old English dances on the Green, and plays were given in various parts of the grounds, and the most beautiful girl in college was crowned May Queen amidst ringing applause. The day wore to an end and all our girls, tired as they were, agreed that it had been just the happiest day of their lives. Cheer after cheer pealed out for the College, for the President, and in point of fact for almost everything. It was with radiant faces that they finally retired to their well-earned rest.

There is no pal like a dog, said Dean Manning, speaking in chapel on Monday, October 9th, but we must carry on. And everyone felt that she had about hit the nail on the head that time. Another blow was in store for them, however. Positively no required athletics for upper classmen! said Miss Petts sternly, so the poor Seniors looked with longing eyes at the delightful classes in Body Building, Sun Baths, and Foot Mechanics, and had perforce to be content with Football, Baseball, Hockey, Basketball, Tennis, Water Polo, Swimming, and Hare and Hounds, and they were awfully plucky about it too. This was the year of the Presidential Election and being good healthy-minded American girls they were all naturally very much excited. Everybody took sides with a great deal of enthusiasm, for patriotic feeling was so strong in the college that a girl who sat on the fence would have been sent to Coventry at once. There were torchlight parades and rallies with speeches and a brass band to play The Sidewalks of New York . Indeed the quiet little college hummed with life and became as busy as some great political center. Such fun as was had shouting All for Al and Al for All and then cheering for Hoover and Norman Thomas and even Will Rogers. Nobody cared who was elected just so long as somebody was. But all the same our tender-hearted girls felt very badly when Al Smith bowed to defeat. Full of girlish sympathy they immediately sent him a telegram saying Don ' t eat your heart out Al we are still with you signed the Rover girls. On Election Day itself everyone was allowed to go home to vote whether they lived two thousand miles away or not, but of course no one wanted to. One girl, however, went out to Portland, Oregon, and did the college authorities mind? Not they! Owing to the influenza epidemic Miss Park said everyone could spend Christmas at college if they wanted to and you can bet your grandfather ' s whiskers they stayed. Of course everyone was dying to catch a common cold , but no one did. Even at this happy season, however, the Infirmary was not empty for there was one poor girl suffering from a bad case of alcoholic poisoning . She burned herself with a candle on Christmas Eve and the alcohol she used with quick fore- thought as a disinfectant turned out to be poisonous and so she was poisoned. But she received loving care and many sympathetic notes. All the other girls had a lovely time. They bestowed little gifts on one another, each chosen with tender affection, for they all agreed that it wasn t the gift so much as the spirit that counted, and their spirits were wonderful. Such whoopee as they made and how the campus resounded with singing and cheering on this holiday occasion! Gradually the year wore away. Every day was filled to overflowing with happy moments of work and play. For the last time our girls lay out on the hillside in the spring sunshine and tanned their slender limbs. The thought of leaving Page Twenty-five the calm and sheltered haven of college for the hurly-burly of life in the great world was quite overwhelming to them. Often as they sat in class briskly taking notes their eyes would fill with tears, and many were the loving looks and embraces bestowed between these tender-hearted girls so soon to be parted. Garden Party came and went. This was a red-letter day and all the girls had just the jolliest time ever. All sorrow was forgotten on this gala occasion when fond friends and relatives flocked from near and far to do honor to their dear ones. They all remarked after- wards upon what a lovely scene the campus was, withthe slim girlish figures in dainty frocks receiving under the verdant old trees and happy laughter resounding from all sides. Last of all came Graduation. Very solemnly our girls paced up to the platform to receive their hard-earned diplomas from their beloved Prexy . Sounds of suppressed sobbing filled the great auditorium during the farewell address and as the students arose to leave they were almost all unaffectedly wiping away the tears. Thus the Rover Girls ' college career was ended. Four bright and happy years had been passed in the shelter of the cloisters. Now they were to embark on the great sea of life to do a woman s noble work in the world. Of which more anon.

I took a chance. Happy, happy, who is happy? I am a bit crazed by my purging experience. And sobered. I want a sympathetic hand. You see, my problem was to get girls to go abroad the only way, S.T.C.A. Europe — country of universal appeal, where the old world meets the new! If you don ' t go you will have to hear about everyone else ' s trip, until you do go, when you can again usurp the conversation. But when you Page Thirty-five do, buy your tickets from Mary Lambert, 42 Pern East (advt.). What more good clean fun could you have than in S.T.C.A.? (And dirty too, if you are that kind, which we hope no one in this college is.) But my metier — you see how knitted into my spirit the lingo is. These phrases have been the secret of my success; how can I abandon them now? Such was my rhetoric that I won over the English department completely. Or was it the charm of my contagious grin? I doubt it, as I have since heard it had grown quite twisted from long hours of salesmanship practice before a dis- torted college looking-glass, and was conducive only to terror. It must have been my limpid language which persuaded 3.1416 (= pi, what one should do in bridge, bidding with only a two of one ' s partner ' s suit) anyway, three professors to buy passages. My eloquence had its drawbacks: I was so enthusiastic about the economy of the trip that they thought the $30.00 deposit was the entire fare and arrived at the dock with no more money. I couldn ' t disillusion them at that late date, and so made up the deficit myself. I ' m sure they are planning to sail every summer for thirty dollars. How embarrassing for them! But how much more embarrassing for me — financially speaking, of course. Then the best movie came down here, my dear, you mustn ' t miss it! Such pash, my dear, have you never beheld!! After its production one hundred and five (105) girls signed up to sail. Quickly I figured out what I would make in commissions (I ' m good at figures) and bought a fascinating garden-party dress. Triste dicta! (for translation see Miss Swindler) they discovered that the movie had a plot (imperceptible to the naked eye — even with a microscope) and that the kisses were premeditated and not just Kodaked as they went. They withdrew their applications — but I had bought the dress. These same girls were discovered in the Art Sem looking up Mr. Volendam, thinking that the S.T.C.A. posters were examples of modern art that Miss King had put up. How can one do anything at college with the present mental capacity what it is? Why, some people actually think the tubs are dirty, when obviously it is the water-manufacturers who put brown pigment in the water to make tubs look dirty, so you will need more water to clean them out. But we fool them here. No one ever attempts to clean out her tub. Because I had not sold a passage at the end of the season the New York office made me buy fifteen tickets and give a house-party. Next year I am planning to peddle near-beer and hair-pins, or start a notion-counter under Juno or sub rosa or something. My debts must be paid back. But the S.T.C.A. really is a sure-fire proposition, a double-barrelled gold-mine. Just sign on the dotted line and think of a bluebird and be a little soldier. However, don ' t let me influence you. I am just a working girl after all. (advt.) Add. Advt. Our Intelligentsia. No. 2 Agraphia — Don ' t you think college life is broadening? Alexia — Not with the kind of food they give us here!

He always wants me to kiss him good-night. Tell me, is there any- thing wrong in that? I am always meeting him by chance in the most out-of-the-way places. Coincidence is a wonderful thing don ' t you think? People are beginning to talk a little, though. Should I encourage his advances or not? English Primrose. Dear Annie Laurie: The most amazing passion possesses me. I am experiencing an older woman ' s love for a pure, chaste boy. He is dark in a drug store, and is really rather sweet, although he doesn ' t pay any attention to me. I am of medium size with brown hair and eyes and a good tigger; red-hot as it ware. How can I win his love? Should I speak to him first or is that too risquey? I don ' t want to wallow in sin. I fear I must stop as the bell has tolled. Lonely Lucy. XXIX. Dear XXIX: Your case is hopeless. Annie Laurie. Dear Annie Laurie: I am a young girl of middle height which have been going with fellows since an early age, but none has affected me like this last fellow. I have been running with him a long time, and he has never mentioned marriage. How can I arrange this? Should the girl propose? Please help me, Annie Laurie — I have had practically every experience a woman could have, but this is a new problem for me. What are my colors? Also what is the difference between adultery and prostitution? Anxiously, Florentine. Dear Little Florentine: You sound very attractive, and I see no reason why your young man should hold back. No, girls don ' t actually propose, but isn ' t there a subtler way of giving him a helping hand ? Maybe your young man is timid, or maybe you are not letting him see your real qualities. Men do not like women who are arty or intellec- tual . Just be your sweet natural self and he will soon come round. And good luck to you, Florentine. Annie Laurie. P. S. Colors — Black, black and white, white and black, white. Page Forty-one In Memoriam MINOR ENGLISH: CHAUCER 1927-28 Titer joined us, after a lytel space, A sely scholard with a lengthy jace. His narwe hede wagged on his nekke, And haires whyte his polle did bedekke. Whoe ' er shold venture peep into his mouthe IV old loke in vain for semblaunce of a toothe. His eyen straunge rollten in his heed As if attached by a sclendre threed, And lyk to fallen gruf beneathe his fete. A few ther were who founde his discourse swete, For he spak ay in praise of courtly love; To teres was the Prioresse y-move. He swore he loved so our company e That he wold telle of hem until he dye. {And eke have I no cause, in very sothe, To thinke that he hath broken of his oatlie.) His goun of sable recched to his feet, As was for sic a lerned scholard meet. He rode a frisky steed, by Goddes bones, That lyke was to throw him for the nones.

Page Forty-eight fe e: Epitaph Lines on a favorite ice-cream scoop carelessly lost on the green on May 5th, 1928 I saw a disc upon the grass, I thought it was the moon. I looked again and saw it was A tiny wooden spoon. Pray, tell me, little Scoop, I said, What makes you look so worn? Your face has lost the bloom of youth. Your posture is forlorn. My tale is sad, the spoon replied, ' Twill make you shed a tear. Here on this chilly ground I ' ve lain Four seasons of a year. Fair sunshine graced the day on which I made my first debut. Fair maidens capered on the green, ' Twas sure a sight to view. Two oxen passed, a maypole rose Amidst a merry shout. The dancers tripped o ' er this same grass Till they were quite worn out. A hot hand grasped me ' round the throat, A cold load pressed my blade. And back and forward I began To move, nor ever stayed. At last I fell upon the grass, My comrades fell around, But they were gathered up, alas, And I was never found. I raised the little spoon aloft, I took it to the hall And put it in a Trophy Case To be admired by all. The moral of the tale is this: The spoon will be to you A model as to what to use In Nineteen-Thirty-two.

That broods upon its pains and ills, When all at once I saw a crowd Of milk bottles on my window-sills. As numerous as the stars that shine And twinkle on the milky way, They stretched in never-ending line, Some white, some blue, some going gray. The fish for dinner smelled, but they Outdid the festering fish in smell; Ambitious to be cottage cheese. They played their part and played it well. I gazed and gazed, but soon the strain Became a lot too much for me: A poet could not long remain In such a sour company. And oft when on my couch I lie, I ' ve wondered how (and wondering shivered) I thought ' twould help the inward I For daily milk to be delivered.

These berets limp, and these Bavarian hats. The day is come when I again repose Here, on this populated hill, and view The tennis courts, and gain a coat of tan, And think upon these wasted years: the dull Routine, the dreary halls, the musty books, And everything in life that I have missed. For I have learned To look on college, not as in the hour Of thoughtful youth, but seeing oftentimes How more each year we lose the power to think. And sink into our academic rut, Leading a safe, unintellectual life. Whose pleasures are: the racing hockey game, And the gay Seville, and the College Inn, And contract bridge, but never of the mind. . . . Page Sixty-one Above you see the Reading Room, a palatial and airy chamber where manv wise and otherwise moments can and have been passed. The c hairs are perhaps a shade too period for utter comfort but the acoustics are practically perfect. The desks are screened to the height of two feet to secure privacy for the reader says our catalogue. Which may be taken in two ways. And here we have the New Book Room, and a charming place it is too. More than East and West meet here. Says the catalogue it is open for the Faculty at all hours of day and night. Isn ' t this a wee bit risky? Page Sixty-three Unrequired Exercise for Seniors OR HOW WE BROKE THE RECORD FROM THE PIKE TO PEM I sprang from my seat, so did Betsy and Bee; I galloped, they galloped, we galloped all three. Twenty-five past ten said the watch on my wrist; Hell ' s bells, to leave now ere Greta had been kissed! But steeling our hearts we relinquished the rest. And out through the arcade we galloped abreast. Not a word to each other; we kept the great pace Neck by neck, stride by stride, never changing our place. We raced to the curb; just then flashed the red light; We swerved between trucks as we flew in full flight; The cop at the corner almost had a fit. But traffic roared on and we weren ' t hurt a bit. Moore ' s windows were dark, Wallace snored in his bed; We bored through thick blackness as onwards we sped; Whizzing through the station we all were aghast To see the big clock marking twenty-eight past; And from Taylor Tower we heard not the half-chime, So Betsy broke silence with Yet there is time! By Shipley Bee groaned; and cried, Wait half a sec! My wind is all gone and I ' m a complete wreck. We slowed up a bit for one heard the quick wheeze Of her chest, saw the agonized face and the staggering knees; As gasping and stumbling we plunged up the street, Loud echoed the thunder of our flying feet. Against the cold stars a qua nt spire sprang white; Gallop, gasped Betsy, for the goal is in sight! And all I remember is friends flocking round; We were laid on the couch and water was found. Keys jangled, the door clanged, but all this was nil For we ' d made it in just five minutes from the vill.

Page Sixty-five TS.TINETEEN TWENTY-NINE must have been a charming aggregation of young things when it started, for sixteen from the dazzling total were early snatched away BUBBLES into matrimony. The implication as to the amount of charm still left is harsh. All statistics are dull but marriage statistics are duller. In fact the 1929 marriage statistics are downright depressing. If 1-6 of our class is already married and only 50 per cent of B. M. graduates ever marry at all (as the Cosmopolitan cruelly will have it) find X. In other words 2 3 of those of us who are left are doomed to eternal spinsterhood. The facts of life are always bitter, but they must be faced. We recommend immediate subscription to one of these iMarriage Magazines between whose covers a lonely girl can be almost sure of meeting a fine clean chap who will provide her with a home and happiness. A worthy attempt was made to se- cure pictures of all our sixteen proud wives with their other halves, and quarters, and all other sundry fractions. Only five found time in the midst of their domestic preoccupations to reply. Soapy Casteel ' s young prodigy named Bubbles is our nearest approach to a class baby. We suppose we should have voted it a silver spoon to have in its mouth when born, but consider the stag- gering amount of our class dues as it is. Anyway we give Bubbles the place of honor on this page devoted to honor and conjugal bliss.
