For the last two years it has been under- going a great and trying change. Last year's editors set to work to turn the Bryn Nlawrtyr into a school memory book, instead of a magazine, and we, this year, took up the task where they left off. It is difhcult, or rather impossible, to make a complete change inone issue of the book, but we can at least do our part each year to further the purpose. This year we have taken a bold and daring step. We have changed the cover of the Bryn Mawrtyr ! We can just see the Alumnae rising up in righteous anger, demanding what we mean by doing such an unheard-of thing. But let us assure you that it is really not such a dreadful change after all. The old cover design is carefully preserved upon the title page, where none can fail to see it. Furthermore-we hate to admit that it is true-not one-half of the school knows their school seal, and we, the Class of 1922, consider such ignorance an outrage. Therefore, for the purpose of making the school seal known to all, and to make the outside more attractive, we have ventured to change the cover. ln conclusion, we wish to express our thanks to each class for its help in contributing material for the memory book, and for their splendid work in get- ting ads. We herewith present to them the 1922 f'Bryn Nlawrtyrt' with the sincere wish that they will like it. ff?

Sixteen mass gitiiiaturg that I have been chosen to relate the history of our career I am very much opposed to disappointing people so dear reader if you promise to expect nothing, you may proceed. J ' L1- I i-2 Every senior has always thought her class the nicest that has ever been or ever will beg I am no exception to this rule, in fact, I couldn't be if I tried, for ours is really the best. Our greatest characteristic has always been originality. Therefore, after we had dramatized the Last of the lylohicansn in quite the ordinary manner, we had to save our reputation by the crudeness of our refreshments. Among them was a lovely cake covered with luscious white marshmallows. Perhaps our love for marshmallows influenced us more than our love for originality. At any rate, when the cake was passed to the guests it was covered with holes where the marshmallows had once beenfgjla was thus that we introduced ourselves to the main school, afterwards, e-howaer, we acquired the name of the most polite class in the school. In Class Three having decided to give another play, we made Cupid and Psyche our choice. Never before or since has a play like it been given in the school. We imagined ourselves true artists, and I hope for the sake of the audience that we were not too greatly deceived. Our next play was the Pickwic fPapefs,f' which we gave as the Christmas play. As usual, we put off the arranpemegfts until the last momentg nevertheless, it was a success, if not an overpowe ,gig ope. We were a very affectionate class, yes, a very affectionate class, indeed. I think our seniors would have preferred it if we had been a little less so. I-Iave you ever had a 'fcrush ? I hope not, not so much for your sake as for the per- son who was so honored. However, if you have not, you have inissed much-I am afraid few of us have ever missed much. If you should happen to glance into our class book, do not be surprised at a peculiar picture of a girl in bed. It is only the result of the anguish caused by one of the ones getting the measles. Of course, we are older now and the tables are turned for some of us,-we have grown out of such silly habits. ia ,. fi, T is because I am the Nlethusaleh of the class and not because I can write 53 ' it 5? - arf ' , , ' 1 Never will I forget the first year we were allowed to attend the banquet. Ac- cording to custom, we gave the banquet play, or rather it was a vaudeville. Few of us had ever before attended a banquet. We guessed it was like a big dinner party. I started in on the nrst course with great relish and had not half Hnished when every one jumped up. .I did not know exactly what had happened, but I thought maybe a queen was about to enter, when I realized it was only for a toast we had risen. It is with regret that we end our school career. Nevertheless, we hope to have many reunions and to see each other frequently in the future. V M. v. H., '22 Sewzlleelz M . R, M . C. E. C. J. M E. 1.

Always are our suppers deliciously cooked, beautifully served, and highly amusing, As for the food, I think it will give you quite a clear idea if I tell you that Gaston's and the French Pastry Shop simply could not keep up without our patronage. But after all it isn't the dainties which are set before us so temptingly that draw us as much as the good times that we have in each other's company. If we decide to go to the theatre after supper, that's fine, but if we are all broke as can be, and think that we will have a quiet evening in our old Senior Room, playing cards and talking, we have just as jolly a time.

Niizefccu Q 555151 :gear at Srlqnnl A, HE only drawback about being in the Senior class is the fact that it means ' school is almost over. Perhaps some one way down the line will think liz, 'IN 2 s nl 5: KQ IJ that no one in her right mind would make a statement like that, and that nothing could be better than to be almost through school. But just wait until you are a Senior, too, and realize that it won't be long before you join that rank of endless numbers, the Alumnae. Then, I think you will agree with me and say that nothing could be worse than leaving the school you have loved so long and so much. Even if it does sound awfully egotistical, l must say that the Senior Class is just the nicest in the whole school. One of its chief attractions, as every one must realize, is the Senior Room. At the beginning of the year we got together and decided to remove the age-worn cretonne, bought by the Class of 1916, and to work wonders. We went down town and bought yards and yards of nice fresh material, and came to school for several days to work. Two little hand machines were lent us and we kept them buzzing all the time. When at last we had finished, the room looked so nice that we hardly knew it. The curtains were fresh, the worn green chair covered, and the couches covered and filled with pillows. Then we got out our 1922 banner and hung it up so that it might be an inspiration to us throughout the year. So much for the Senior Room at the beginning of the year. Now, sad to tell, the cretonne is getting soiled and old looking, the pillows are rip- ping, and, by some unknown power, a half a dozen chairs, more or less, have been broken. Our table is always filled with books, pads and papers, and our shelves don't know the Hrst meaning of the word neatness. But all of this does not take away one little bit of the love we have given to the Senior Room and we earnestly hope that next year's Seniors will Hx their room up, too, and get as much pleasure out of it as we have. Here's to '23! E. w. s., 122. Twenty C3111 the Seniur Qfinuin Q, HE doors were closed and not a sound came through the ventilatorsg some- thing must be wrong. Can you imagine the Senior Room in perfect quiet? It is difhcult, but as the doors were opened the reason for the silence was evident. The room was empty. No, upon closer examination there seemed to be someone trying to conceal herself in the corner of the sofa. She was really just reading modern poetry and trying to like it. The next period, however, was a 'fstudy for the whole class, and chaos reigned. Hello, Jazz! Reading NIasefield? , Yes, as usual. Oh, dear, did anybody get any sense out of her Latin? l didn't even have time to nnish mine. Won't somebody go over it again with me? Sorry, I haven't done algebra yet. q Oh, oh, oh! Will I ever get the Dramatic Club settled? and Billy, bursting into the room, slammed her books down on the table, I ' HI don't know, but I wish I could manage to get some team practices.

You said - I I know, Milly, but we can't, because --- I g I 'fGosh! with this Ruth started pawing through her shelf, scattering books and papers right and left until she was almost hidden from sight. Then the silence that had fallen upon the room was suddenly broken by everyone exclaiming at once: Ruth, what has happened P . I have lost my composition. What shall I do? l am surel left it in my English book, and now it is gone. Oh, here it is. Thank goodness, I didn't lose it. After a few minutes of quiet, a small voice spoke from the depths of many pillows upon the sofa. Oh, Primy! I have something to tell you. Do you remember the day we all H As the story continued, one girl after another moved over to the sofa to listen, her lessons forgotten for the time being. The plot thickened, until hnally, as the climaxof the tale was reached, a loud squeal arose, which was hastily suppressed by Evelyn .and the proctors. But, alas, they were too late: the damage had been done. The doors opened and Miss Thomas stepped into the room. Did I hear a noise in the Senior Room? was all that she said. Of course, it is possible that she had, but they could not be sure, so to this very day that question has gone unanswered.

In the third main we were forty-five strong young girls, always up to some mischief. Lessons did not worry us much, and we devoted much time to athletics. Now, our one aim in life is to pass our college exams. This year the class islvery small, compared to the class of the third main, for now, instead of forty-Hve members, we are reduced to thirteen. But this has not been a disadvantage in many ways. The class feels closely united and interested in doing things together. ln the fall, by giving a fair, we were thrown together and for the Hrst time really felt that we knew each other well. We have been very fortunate to have Miss Burwell as our class teacher through two of the hardest years in the school, and it is largely due to her guidance and interest that the class has pulled together. Mademoiselle Ceyette promised to have tea with the class twice a month, during which time only French was to be spoken. Our first meeting was at Miss Burwell's. After many faulty and lengthy starts we were able to ask Mademoiselle questions in French. Sometimes we resorted to telling in English what we wanted to say in French, and then translating it very slowly with Mad- emoiselle's patient assistance. But Class Seven is determined to speak French, so we are confident that at the next meeting we shall be able to ask Mademoiselle any- thing at all without hesitating. We also are going to be lucky enough to have Miss Hoyt for one of our teas, where we are going to learn all about her wonderful trip abroad last year. lt is needless to say we are looking forward to this time with great interest and delight. l6IHERE are so many differences between the third main and the seventh main Ttouzzly-fi1'e Glass Sabian So, although the year of the Seventh Main is much harder than the Third Main, still we have been able to have fun even though the idea of college exams makes one's hair stand on end.

We met, decided on a cabaret, drew up a rough cast of characters, food, and actions, and started full swing at a certain clergyman's house the next afternoon. We could never get the gym, except for pititully short minutes, so we got peo- ple to lend us their houses to practice in.

I rush into the Study Hall just as Miss Trundle lifts her hand to ring the bell, and a belated Senior dashes from the Library, grabs a prayer-book or hymnal, and tries to look as if she had been standing there for the last fifteen minutes. ln making ,a wild dash to my seat I trip over Jean McLanahan's foot, which is, as usual, occupying the aisle. Our famous collector of gaudy handkerchiefs, Mary Magruder, and incidently my cleskmate, starts one of her horribly contagious giggles. We all have to chew our handkerchiefs to keep from laughing out loud, as we laugh harder and harder, and nnally prayers are over and we calm down.

A lovi sound, like some animal in pam, came from the direction of the 35,5345 woods. The sound was enough, and with a loud neigh he started towards MM' it. At the sound of his neigh, the other horses grazing in the field looked up inquiringly. Instantly, the horses turned their feet towards the woods. They, too, had heard the sound, and with Traveller to lead them they would gladly follow. lt was an easy thing for the .horses to jump the frail fence, for they did it many times a day, but today they were in such a hurry that Travellerls heavy body took the light fence along with him. As they parted the trees they came upon a handsome horse lying in a ditch, with his neck bent back. l-le was trembling and writhing in terrible agony when the horses came up and they could only watch him suffer. Asthey stood viewing the disaster, the brushes parted and a beautiful girl about thirteen or fourteen years old entered. At the sight of her, Traveller gave a low neigh and pushed his quiv- ering nose into her hand. For a second the girlls lips pressed against the soft nose and then she knelt beside the wounded horse. Two broken legs and a twisted neck, she said slowly, as she rose from his side a moment later. I wonder why men will not be careful! Do you know what happened, Traveller? she asked, facing the horse. 'iRobert Rally was riding and he forced the horse to leap. The result is that Rally has broken a leg and smashed his side to pieces. In the meantime the horse dies. l've learned a lesson today,-never lend a horse to a hunter. Saying this, she called the others to the barn and saw that the doors were closed tightly. Slipping into the house she returned with an old dress in her arms. She went straight to where the injured horse lay and just out of his sight she threw the dress to the ground, uncovering a gun. Taking quick aim at the animalls heart she pulled the trigger. The instant the shot was heard she dropped the gun and slipped to the horse's side. His dying eyes beheld the girl and felt her lips against his nose.

In the stable Traveller heard the shot and knew the meaning-the horse whom Traveller loved better than anyone on earth had died. The ive minutes which followed the shot were a time of greatsuffering to the horse, but when the stable door opened and the girl walked in a queer expression was on her face. Traveller, she said, stroking his mane, we must ride and get a doctor for Rally so that he may live. Without another word she saddled the horse and got on his back. Traveller knew what was happening and he walked slowly towards the house. He must ride Hve miles to the town to save the life of one who had killed his best friend. At the door of the house, Mrs. Smith passed a note into the girl's hand. On the road the girl started Traveller into a pleasant trot. She did not urge him, therefore, he chose his own gait and started towards the town. As the road was bad, it was late into the night before the two reached the main road. T hen, suddenly the girl urged and the horse started off at a rapid speed. When the two returned with the doctor, the girl drew the horse into the stable and gave him a thorough rubbing down, after which she went to the house. Late into the night the horse stood to think. He, Traveller, had gone ten miles for the life of the murderer of his greatest friend! V H. T., '27. Thirty-four I I mm.. 7'lJirZ'y-five 1928 1 GE .J I If if! ' 23 'X ,E nh- v ,Q ,E AW All H ll? .

The idea was welcomed heartily by the whole class. From that day on, we held a great many class meetings to decide about it. Fannie Scott Matthews and I had a grabbag and we collected about sixty articles for it. There were two fancy tables full of beautiful things. There was a cake table covered with lovely cakes, big and little. Near it was a table where gold fish were sold. On the other side of the room was a long candy table covered with de- licious candies, candy bouquets, fancily dressed lollypops, caramels and many other candies. There was a gypsy fortune teller and upstairs there were some girls giving an aeroplane stunt. We also had a Christmas tree, for it was in December. At the end of the day we found that we had made one hundred and twenty- six dollars. We sent the money to Austria and a few weeks later we received a letter thanking us for our gift. E. D., '29.

J tempt to express myself on any subject of this twentieth century. Much better were it that I be allowed to remain in the essays which Mr. Dobson has edited. But, as it is requested that I discuss a modern subject, and, preferably, I suppose, something pertaining to this new land called Amer- ica, I make an humble apology and choose my subject, of which, as the reader shall see, I know very little. It is difficult, to say the least, and I must frankly admit that I should rather discuss some topic on which I consider myself a fairly intelligent authority-something which would have been a timely topic at Will's coffee house. I take the much-criticised and much-discussed flapper. The name is peculiar in itself, and not pleasant to our English tongue, but, as I see by careful and minute observation, there are many such ugly words and mannerisms of the present day which are considered the vogue by the young maidens. Whether or not that peculiar word fIapper existed during the years of my prime, in the early eighteenth century, I do not know, certainly it was not in my vocabulary. However, I hear, on good authority, that the clever and remarkable Mr. Webster recognizes it. Be that as it may, I have not a dictionary at hand, and, therefore, cannot investigate for myself. I find in a very satisfactory book, which I use for my own convenience, the definition of the word to be thus: He who, or that which, flaps. How that ap- plies to a young maiden is quite beyond my comprehension, but I dare say that my readers, who perhaps have keener intelligence than I, will see the suitability. My information on the subject has been gotten from the papers and periodicals of the time, which entirely omit matters of importance and give a large quota of their spaceto such minor topics as how the young female should dress and what she should put on her nose in the summer time fperhaps it is the winter, the season fr rf? .1 1. 1- fv- T55 7'birty-eight Jiflr- Egickerstzrff emo the glllztpper escapes mei, and many other nonsensical matters. The maiden to whom all this advice is given is the flapper -the subject of this paper. She appears to be a young woman who cuts off her hair and shows her ankles. Both of these actions are incomprehensible to me. These young women have also affected an untidiness in dress, most unbecoming in a maiden, but for some unknown reason they seem to fancy it. The ladies of my acquaintance, especially those who made the happiest and most domestic wives, wore their hair smooth and never trimmed it except on the waxing of the moon, when the trimming was done for the improvement of their tresses. Now a maiden's hair is shorn from her head and her short locks unbe- comingly blow about her face. Also she affects thin stockings for her exposed ankles, which are often not ungainly. Besides this change in the headdress and footwear there is the stoop of the shoulders which is popular, but very ugly, and, I dare say, unhealthy. I am afraid that I have not given a very full picture of this American fIapper, who is not so remarkable when you consider that she lives in a land so recently inhabited by Indians, but, owing to my complete ignorance of the subject and the short length of time in which to investigate about her, it is difficult to do better.

Q iliac QKULIHB Zguurae P ,Z GD QD T was our second trip down the mountain side in three days, and on account FEL LQ, of the terrible heat Bill and I had decided to make this one at night. We left the Springs just after sundown, driving the big spring wagon along the same old road, which, although the main turnpike between the Springs ist and L-, was nothing more than a dirt road, and a very bad one at that. Bill and I took turns driving. After four or ive hours we turned into a rougher and narrower road, which would shorten the distance considerably. It was rarely used on account of the deep ruts which made it very difncult for travel. There was another reason for preferring the main road to this one, but it was not generally admitted. About a mile from the point where the rough road turned off the pike stood a strang-looking house, about which a number of stories had arisen. The house was, indeed, singular enough in appearance to war- rant the wildest stories. It was not built as houses usually are, but was round, and had a cone-shaped roof. A wide porch, about six feet from the ground, ex- tended completely around the lower story. Upon this opened a large door and several tall, but narrow, windows, which were boarded up, as, indeed, were all the openings visible from the road. All the outhouses were built like the house, round, with pointed roofs. The house was set at a considerable distance from the road and was surrounded by a high fence. A thick maze of young trees and bushes had grown up around it and on one side stood a magnificent oak, the branches of which extended over the roof and brushed against the boarded windows. The place had an air of mystery and desertion. It had been built by a Northern man, who had come to the mountains from no-one-knew-where, and had settled there with the hope of making a fortune in lumber. He bought a large tract of mountain timber land and put up a sawmill on the river near the dam. The Round House was built for his own residence and was occupied by him as long as he remained in the country. It was he who had the road cut in order to shorten the distance for hauling his timber down the moun- tain. Although his business seemed prosperous, it evidently did not turn out as he had expected, for he disappeared as suddenly as he had come. The sawmill was torn down and most of his possessions sold, but the Round House remained his, so far as anyone knew. Driving back and forth over this road had made the Round House a familiar sight to us, but I never ceased to regard it with a feeling of awe. l used to while away the hours of our lonely rides speculating on the fate of its owner and the probable truth or Hction of the tales current about it. Bill, who had a healthy con- tempt for fear and superstition, would never discuss them with me, -but would often remark that a coat of paint and a clearing away of the underbrush would make it a very respectable place. He would sometimes, when feeling especially Forty mite Qliuunh Qiuuse brave, express a desire to explore it, provided he had the time to stop. Incidently, Bill and I were never in much of a hurry. It was Bill's turn to drive. I had climbed back' into the wagon bed and lay with my head on a pile of sacks. The intense heat and the jogging motion of the wagon prevented sleep. Bill had settled himself comfortably with his feet propped high and the reins thrown over one arm and had fallen into a sort of dose. Not a sound broke the sultry stillness of the night except the creaking and bumping of the wagon and the clatter of old NIin's hoofs. We were nearing the Round House, and I could see the tower-like building and the mighty oak silhouetted against the clear night sky. I thought I saw a light through a crack between the boards of one of the windows. Just as I was about to speak to Bill of this, I heard a rustling in the bushes and felt the wagon stop with a jerk. I rose quickly, and there I beheld a sight that would have appalled a stouter heart than mine, or even Bill's. Three horsemen had ridden out of the bushes by the road. They were enveloped in white garments from head to foot. The horses, too, were disguised beyond a possibility of identirication, even their hoofs were wrapped in tow-sacks. One of the men advanced with a lantern and gazed into our faces. Evidently Ending that neither of us was the person he was searching for, he turned aside and darkened his light. As soon as the mysterious rider signed to us to go on, .Bill grabbed the whip and gave Min such a blow as the old animal had not felt in many a day. I had remained standing and the sudden start of the wagon threw me back violently. We dashed down the road at a speed I had hardly believed Min ca- pable of. As soon as I could, Iclimbed into the seat beside Bill. It was all I could do to keep from being flung into the road. Presently we slowed down somewhat. After a mile or two, when I had regained my breath, it occurred to me that this was rather a joke on Bill, and I began laughing. Bill gave me a surprised look and I said: Think they was ghosts, Bill? Bill did not answer. We rode on, still at good speed. If nothing else may be said in favor of that trip, it was cer- tainly the quickest we ever made before or after.. I made another try at Bill, I'Didn't have anything on your conscience, did you, Bill? I said. Bill kept his eyes on the road ahead and did not say a word. We kept on going. Curiosity made me serious. I offered to take the reins and then said: Who do you reckon they were after? Bill changed his position slightly and answered: There ain't but one person I know of travels this road besides us, and that's Noah I-Iillisf' 'tYou don't suppose theylre after him, do you, Bill? I asked. HI ain't supposin' nothin'I said Bill. We reached the Ll railroad station just as it was beginning to grow light, and as soon as we had unloaded the wagon we crawled into the baggage-room and went to sleep. It was not until late in the morning that we heard the news. Some- Forty-one 'Ghz Qfinunh iiiuuse one, chancing along the deserted road, had found Noah Hillis hanging to the gate- post of the Round House fence. That was a good many years ago. lt has been rumored around the country that the rightful owner of the Round House, Ending whiskey-making more profit- able than wood-sawing, had changed his occupation accordingly, that he had kept the Round House, boarded up the windows and allowed the weeds to grow for a purpose, that Noah Hillis had given, or he feared would give, information which would not bring about a pleasant termination of events for those concerned. Whether this is true or whether it is merely another of the tales told about the Round House, I cannot say. No one, not even Bill, has been brave enough to find out the truth. J. Y. L., '23.

The back platform of the Nashville South Station was crowded with negroes of all descriptions hastening away to the northern summer resorts in the station of chef, maid, porter and every other brand of-service. The odor of cheap perfumes, of stale tobacco, and banana if ff skins repulsed the nostril. Red was predominant in the color scheme, though the outstanding figure was one clad in blue, a blue which sur- passed all other shades in dazzling the eye. Under this bold armor strutted a gentleman of much more sombre hue, but of quite as bold a spirit. Many feminine eyes were turned to watch the promenade of this Hgure, and as many as four feminine hearts were made to jump into dusky throats by the slow revolution in their direction of the pair of daring black eyes which shone from under the pearl-grey felt shade. Brother Eczema Slatts was known as a great Hdevil 'mongst de ladies. This is verihed by the fact that up to date he had had at least four wives. His weakness in this direction is probably one way to account for the fact that each of the four divorced him within two years. Into all the bustle at the station paraded a damsel resplendent in a burnt orange gown, topped by a large hat of the royal hue from which drooped a heavy white lace veil, faintly suggesting window curtains. The veil entirely hid the upper features of the lady. Only the even pearly teeth, edged with deepest crim- son, were visible. As she passed Eczema, a long, once white kid glove dropped to the Hlth of the station floor. Forever chivalrous, he stopped, recovered it, and with a sweeping bow, presented it to the lady, saying in his most charming voice: Pardon us, but aintt dis yea'h belong to yo'alls? Yas, suh, Ah h'lieves it do, thank yo' kindly, declared the sweetest of dulcet voices from between those bewitching lips. The smile she gave him, together with the odor of hydrangea and sandalwood, were too much for Eczema. His ever- susceptible heart began to flutter. He could not let a chance like this escape him. He just must carry on a conversation with this charming lady. Right warm these days, ain't it? Yo'all trablin' nawth fo' the summah? Go long, black man! Ah ain't he makin' no confab wid no strangahf' Oh, Ah craves pardon ef Ah seems to be insinuatin' mahse'f, but l don' see as how a han'some lady like yo'sef could parsibly min' a gen'man jest passin' de time 0' day.

How 'bout yo' and me skippin' out togedder and atter we shakes de shakles propahly, tryin' on our own, what yo'r say, Peaches? Instead of answering, the lady rose, throwing back the veil as she did so. ln her movement Eczema thought he noticed something startlingly familiar. A moment later, his worst fears were realized, for as the lady turned about to face him, he beheld the terrible wrath of his wife's own face. A torrent of words all but engulfed him. No dulcet tones now. Yo' lo' down, no 'count flirtin' runt! Ah done hear tales of yo' carrin's on, an' now Ah knows deys so. Ah'se onery an' mean, is Ah?

Come 'long yuh, yo' onery rapscallion, yo'! But before she could get her clutches on him, Eczema was speeding down the track after the northbound train.

I l These Indians were the Pueblo Indians, who lived in New Mexico. They had a great treasure, which the Spaniards were trying to get away from them. Refi' Although the priest did not succeed, he soon won the hearts of these their treasure. savage people and after many years the Indians told him the secret of After a while, the Indians heard that the Spaniards, under Coronada, were coming to seek the treasure. At Hrst they were afraid the priest would tell on them, but after he had given them his word of honor that he would not, they felt all right. But one, who was more suspicious than his comrades, stabbed the priest in his back one night while he was sleeping. When the other Indians saw this they were horrihed, but fearing that the Spaniards would come and see the dead body of the priest, they had four Indian runners carry him to a little town called lsleta, where there was a church. This town was about forty miles south of where the Pueblos were. The Indian runners buried the priest in the church of lsleta, under the altar, but they did not say a prayer over his body. After they had buried him six feet under the ground they went home. The Spaniards came and went without knowing about the dead priest. One morning six years later a monk went into the little church of lsleta and there he saw lying on the ground before the altar the body of the dead priest, still preserved, looking as if it had been killed only the night before. The wound on his back looked as fresh as when the Indian had killed him. The ground where he was lying had no signs of ever having been clug up. The people buried the priest again, this time nine feet deep. But in nine years the same thing happened again and the people buried the priest again, this time eight feet deep, but in eight years he came up again. And so it had been going on again and again. At last, in nineteen hundred and ten, the priest came up again, and this time when they buried him the men put thick boards all over the church floor and nailed them down so that the body would have a hard time working itself out. It is supposed to come up again in nineteen twenty-three, and they are already noticing that the floor by the altar has a bump in it the shape of a man's body. This is a true story, and if you wish to prove it, go out to the little town of lsleta, in New Mexico, next year, and you will see for yourself this miracle that many others have seen. CATHERINE A.

Forty-six mhz CIBEUI The papers on March 3rd were full of the great robbery. The article in one of the papers read as follows: The Cedars, the country home of J. W. Steel, a prominent busi- ness man of this city, was broken into last night and robbed during the slumbers of Mr. Steel and his wife, who were the only occupants of the house, except the servants. The robbery was first discovered by a maid at seven-thirty in the morning, who, upon going into the dining-room, saw on the table a piece of paper with the outline of an Owl on it. Having often heard of the Owl, she ran to the chest where the silver was kept to see if it was safe. The lock was broken, the silver gone. Knowing the Owl to be the most noted robber of the time, she rushed upstairs to tell her master and show him the piece of paper. Mr. and Mrs. Steel came quickly downstairs and found the statements of the maid to be true. Mr. Steel went to his safe and found it empty. Th1'ee thousand dollars in money was missing, several thousand dollars in bonds and some very handsome jewelry of Mrs. Steel-the silver also. The police think they have a clue and are in hopes of catching the Owl, who has perpetrated many crimes. Further news concerning the investigations will ap- pear in this evening's paper. Sir Roderick Sayers, a celebrated member of the Secret Service takes the story up. The first robbery with which the name Owl was connected was a very small affair, and I thought some boys who had read The Bat were trying to be smart. But the escapades of the Owl became more serious, and I saw that whoever was committing the robberies was in earnest. Now, I knew there must be a stop to this and I decided to have a hand in the stopping. That afternoon I went out to The Cedars to find a clue. I found the house in quite a turmoil, some green ofhcer was having the servants' rooms searched and they were indignant. I-Iaving talked to Nlr. Steel and quieted the ofncer, I walked in through the kitchen, up the back stairs, and knocked on the door of the room which belonged to the maid who had discovered the robbery. May I come in? I said. Yes, she answered abruptly. I suppose you have come to question me. I declare, it would seem as if my master didntt trust me. Ahl that's where you're wrong. He trusts you and wants your help. Tell all you know and it may aid in the capture of the robber. I have nothing to tell, she told me. f'Come, I said, I will help you. You knew nothing of the robbery until this morning P No. Why do you ask? Merely a whim. You own an electric torch? Yes. How long has the battery been burned out? She started perceptibly. t'How did you know the battery had burned out? t'Very simple. I saw you were using a candle, a pink candle. It is nearly gone. Did you use that candle last night? ' Um-perhaps not, but I do. You used that candle and last night, too, for there is fresh candle Grease on the stairs wink candle Grease. Whv ve v 1 downstairs last night?' 6 yl, G JXTC-OL I I-'orly-rmrli Q The 51951111 I went for water. I-I was thirsty. I came directly back. But it is of no use, I am leaving this place. t'When I see nr that you shall, I said, and left the room. ' In the hall I met the ofhcer. 'tWatch the discoverer of the robbery and do not let her out of the house. Very well, I have known all the time she was a suspicious character. 'tYes, I have no doubt, I said, and walked out on to the terrace. After walk- ing awhile I decided to go back to town. So I said farewell to t'The Cedars for a time and caught the next train back. On arriving in town I went to the club for dinner. I had just started to read my paper, having finished dinner, when a cheery voice called: Come, Sir Roderick, I challenge you to a game of billiards. It was Nlr. Reginald Bitts, a wealthy, good-for-nothing spendthrift, who, how- ever, played an admirable game. All right, I assented, and we began our game. Bad thing, this Steel, robbery. I wonder who the Owl is, so wise, so fond of the night. You are not alone in your wonderingsj' I said, and changed the subject. The game turned out better for me than my day's work and I would fain have enjoyed my paper at its end, but Mr. Bitts was in a talkative mood and he chose as his subject the robbery. Been out to The Cedars? Yes, I said. Find anything? I am sorry to say, no. Aren't going back, are you? I might. . 'tWell, I'll take you down in my car tomorrow. I am going past there on my way to my aunt's. Spending the week-end with her. Thanks, I said, what time? I'll be here at eleven, he answered and walked out. Next morning at eleven o'clock sharp he drew up in his battle-grey Bearcat and we drove off. We were well on our way when the engine began to miss. I'm afraid one of my spark plugs is foul. Better get out and put another in. He stopped the car, got out, raised the hood and took out the dead plug. Then he looked for a new one. Much to his surprise, there were none. Never mind, he said, I will clean the grease off with a screw driver. He took the lid off the tool box. Everything was there except the screw driver. t'That's luck,'t he saidg I wonder where I could have misplaced it. 'fl found one. lt is perfectly good, except for being a little muddy. Take it, I said as I pulled it out of my pocket. As I handed it to him I watched him. He did not show any signs of worry, but thanking me, took it, cleaned the plug, put it back and handed me the screw driver. No, I said, you may keep it. He thanked me and put it in the empty place. Fits as if it belonged there. Yes, he assented. H ll H H ll Forty-eight 'Ghz Q9fnI kvlge soon arrived at The Cedars and I got out. 'fNlay I detain you a moment? I as e . Certainly, he answered, getting out after me. You know where I found this screw driver? HNOY7 Where you carelessly left it on the terrace by that shrubbery, I said. Also, there is another little matter which I am wondering if you can clear up for me. It is the fact that a ringer print which I found on the panelling beside the safe at The Cedars on the morning after the robbery corresponds exactly to that of yours which I found on the billiard table at the club last night. You are wondering when I hrst suspected you, and my reason. It was on the afternoon before the robbery. I came to your house to borrow a book. If you remember you told me to get it from the bookcase. As I pulled another book out in order to get the one I was look- ing for, a thin piece of paper fluttered to the floor unobserved by you. I picked it up and found it to be the outline of an Owl on tracing paper. I put it in my pocket and said nothing. That was the beginning. During all this he did not change expression. Sir Roderick, he said, I think you have me. No one else could have done it. , . Yes, Nlr. Bitts, professionally known as the 0wl, I returned, I think I have ouf' y As I walked toward the house with my now silent partner, I met the oflicer. 'fYou'll Hnd the discoverer of the robbery in her room, he said. I've watched her closely. Thank you, I replied, Hbut, really, she is perfectly innocent. I walked on, chuckling to myself at his utter amazement. Poor devil, he didn't realize in the least that I had mentioned her to give him some way in which to occupy himself without interfering with my plans. That night in the club I had no one with whom to play billiards, but I had my paper and the news was very interesting. E. A.

A Student Government girl ca11 tell you l1ow it feels to be walking i11 the halls i11 orderly fashion to tl1e right, and suddenly be seized with a desire to burst forth into song. Does sl1e do it? Certainly not! When she sees the proctor with stern gaze standing at the head of the stairs, tl1e very personincation of Silence, all such thoughts vanish, and sl1e meekly continues her way to the class room. Reader, did you ever think of the trials a11d hardships of a proctor? Think of tl1e work she has to do to get the school out at recess! Why, oh, wl1y, is everyone so averse to goi11g out and breathing some fresh pure oxygen? Why, oh, why, do groups l1ide i11 the alcove, gather at the foot of the gym steps, and catch deadly colds? All such culprits have to be seized by tl1e proctor and taken outdoors vi et armis. By the time sl1e l1as dOllC her duty i11 this line tl1e bell rings, and the horde begins to bou11d up the stairs. The younger classes always start up tl1e wrong side of the staircase, taki11g two steps at a time. The proctor, at the risk of being trampled o11, deftly places them where they belong, without moving an eyelash. When the last straggler reaches the top of the steps, the proctor makes a mad dash for l1er books, and JEITGITCC to her class room, only to find the ICSSOIT begun and to get a pl61'Clllg glance from her teacher. ' Such are some of the trials. Now for a privilege or two. Wl1o would not wa11t to be o11e of the e11vied characters allowed to be present at the mysterious meetings l1eld witl1i11 the Reception Room walls every Friday at recess?

These are privileges well worth worki11g for, and the Honor Proctor never regrets the three mo11ths of hard labor she WClTf through to obtain them.

The President, seated in a high-backed chair, with a regal wave of the hand, asked the Secretary to read the minutes of the last meeting. After these sixty seconds were proclaimed, the marks, painful reminders of bad little girls who do not obey their mamas, were recorded in a large, black, solemn-looking book. Numerous times during the meeting the door was opened by some frail, unsuspecting person and quickly, yea, very quickly, shut, for it is the dread of every girl in the Bryn Mawr School to be called before the formidable board of peace-keepers. Several very weighty matters+such as whether a proctor on duty should stand on her right or left foot, and whether she should address the victim in Hebrew or Greek-were discussed. After this the meeting adjourned, the President, with solemn pace, leading the way, followed by the awe-inspiring proctors walking with the same heavy tread.

Of course, once or twice, if one happened to go to the theater on k A Friday or Saturday night, one might be surprised and alarmed by the tem- pestuous bursts of mirth from the front row balcony, and, looking up for down, as the case might bel, see the seventeen or eighteen gleeful faces of the Bryn Mawr School Dramatic Club. Except for a couple of these quiet evenings, however, the club does not meet again until the following fall. This year Miss Hamilton told us that she was very anxious for us really to study Dramatics, to have a Dramatic Class one afternoon a week, for the entire year, and to learn the foundation of Dramatics. She frightened us at first by proposing that we give up our play en- tirely for this year and just study. But we were so disappointed, that she hadn't the heart to refuse us, so we gave our play. Of course, it was a big success4with Miss Hall as a coach how could it help being ine? And now we are all very anxious to start our Dramatic Class. lt really is a most unusual feeling to have about studying anything, but we know we are going to love it. Next year the play will have even more finished actresses than ever before. E. A.

Gory heads, stuck on spikes, adorned the wall, looking very terrible, indeed, and many in the audience were known to shudder and cautiously feel their necks. The cast was splendid. Eleanor Harlan, president of the Dramatic Club, made a perfect Altoum, Emperor of Persia, with the aid of a few sofa pillows. Eleanor Musselman was Calaf, the romantic young prince who loved and Hnally won the Princess Turandot, of the golden tresses, and the passion for beheading un- fortunate suitors, played by Priscilla Barton. Barak, Calaf's guardian, bent double with age and rheumatism, was portrayed excellently by Clare Hardy. Anne Zell was splendid as the wily Capocomico, leader of a band of traveling dagos, who were realistically done by Helen Gardner, Isobel Carrington, Mildred Natwick and Modesta Willey. Rae Steele was screamingly funny as the old, fat, bearded slave. All the primary children in the front row roared every time Rae appeared. Rosa- lind Robinson was Zelima, a maid in waiting to the princess and a very enchanting young lady, who seemed particularly attractive to Capoconico's traveling friends. The Princess' love for a beggar and her three riddles revolved around many exciting incidents. Much of the play's success is due to the very efhcient coaching of Miss Constance Hall, to whom the Dramatic Club extends its most hearty thanks. J. C. R., ,25.

Turner Fifty-eight mhz St- Uimntlrgg Q5zrnnz N Saturday morning, November the twelfth, the Bryn Mawr School vard presented an unusual sight. One could hardly realize that this field, gay 'with males- waving banners ot blue and gold, and Hlled with cheering crowds, was the S' same one in which for weeks past the Bryn Mawr players had practiced and been coached and scolded, all in preparation for the eventful day of the Bryn Mawr-St. Timothy game. Now that day had come, so amid shouts and cheers the selected nine ran briskly around the field after their tiny mascot, who was almost hidden in a huge basket-ball covered with gold and white streamers. Next, slow and solemnly, the St. 'Timothy team marched forth, led by three gloomy mourners in black. There was a hush as the two teams lined up on the field and the game began. At last the final whistle blew and every one waited tensely as the points were counted, until amid loud shouts from the Bryn Mawr grandstands, the score was announced at 31 to 20, in our favor, and the B. M. S. team, thanks to its splendid coaches and the wonderful spirit of the school behind it, was once more victorious. B. M. S. ST. TIMOTHY Forwards Forwards E. Musselman fCapt.j E. Colburn M.

GOOKS AND SPOOKS T the beginning of this year, Miss Hamilton asked us to discard the Stars - and Stripes, as they were so unevenly matched, and redivide the school. gl? We agreed that this would be a good plan and elected two captains, Mary Lee Poe and Ruth Bowen, who chose off the sides, making them as even as possible. After much debate we decided to call Mary Lee's side, Crooks, and Ruth's, Spool-cs. - One of the main purposes of the Spooks and Cooks is to promote 'a greater interest for athletics in the school. To carry out this idea, we are planning many basket-ball and baseball games, and a track meet at Montebello, in the spring. We sincerely hope that the Crooks and Spooks will mean a great deal to Bryn Mawr, not only this year, but in the years to come.

NCE again the Faculty and Classes Six, Seven and Eight gathered in the gym for the annual banquet. One would never have recognized the gym, for Seven had decorated it beautifully, and then we were never allowed to eat in the gym, and before us was an enormous table, shaped as a three- sided square, which promised a remarkable feast. Class Six gave us a most entertaining and amusing play, which we all greatly enjoyed. The scene was laid in a cotton field down South and the plot was the story of Ennius and the loving cup. No one would have recognized our friends of Class Six as old Southern darkies, with their faces blackened and their Southern accents. After the play came the dinner itself and the speeches. Eleanor Musselman, as toastmistress, gave all the toasts to the Walrus and the Carpenter, which we all know so well. Sophie Whitely, as president of the Senior Class, made the Erst speech. She was followed by Susan Carey, who told us all the trials of the presi- dent of Student Government. Then Evelyn Sharp, president of Class Seven, and Ella Watkins, assistant editor of the Bryn Mawrtyr, spoke next. Ella told us in a very funny way just how hard it is to have the Bryn Mawrtyr on one's hands. Mary Whitely, vice-president of Class Six, was followed by Helen Kirk, who explained how one looked forward to the delightful pastime called exam- inations. Mary Ridgely Preston, president of the Dramatic Club, then described the secret of dramatics, and was followed by Mary Ramsay, captain of the Varsity, telling the life of a Bryn Mawr team girl. The last speech of all was that of the class teacher of Class Eight, Miss God- dard. She said farewell to her class and told how she hated to see them leaving, and how she would miss them. - After dinner we chatted and danced. Finally, we all sang the schoolsong to- gether and the team sang to Maisie. Then with very sad hearts we said good night. . ,zt ' L 1 Sixty-fouf Qln11tnten1:e111ent nf 1921 'ATE in the afternoon, the girls of the Bryn Mawr School, excited and happy, marched up the aisle of the Congregational Church, on Maryland Avenue and Preston Street, to the crowning event of the school year,-Commence- WM ment. All the worry and hard study were over, ahead lay a pleasant afternoon spent with parents and friends and then-the summer. Everyone was sorry to see such a fine class of Seniors leave the school, and yet there was a certain pride and solemnity in their step. The address was made by Miss Woolley, the President of Mt. Holyoke Col- lege, after which Miss Hamilton made a short speech. She accepted graciously the large donation presented by the alumnae of the school, in appreciation of her splendid work for twenty-ive years in the school. Next, the year's prizes and awards were announced. The gym cup went to Classes Seven and Eight, and in the primary to Class Four. The cup for school spirit was won by Class Seven. The honors of the reading contest went to Class Five. A new prize, a Jeanne d'Arc gold medal, was awarded to Dorothea Hoen Pearce, from Class Six, for the best French work during the year. The Senior scholarships were won by Evelyn Sharp and Clara Elliott. The college scholar- ship for 8500.00 was given to Ella Watkins, and the one for 5400.00 to Kathleen Slingluff. Then the refreshments were served in the garden and all ended happily. D. H. P., '23. v'v'o'o v'o'o'v I Y HE day of the gymnasium exhibition was dark and rainy as usual. Just why it always pours whenever we try to have anything in the .school yard is a 55,3459 mystery. It is just about as bothersome as mysterious, because it forces MM' us to crowd all the audience and performers into the gym. However, in spite of cramped quarters, everything went off beautifully. Class T1 was the first one to step out on the floor, and they acquitted themselves with honor. Class 2, 3 and 4 followed in rapid succession, with well-performed drills and dances. They, in turn, were followed by Classes 5 and 6 together, who showed us just how peppy a tambourine dance can be. Then, last, came the Seniors and Class 7. After some complicated marching and a fancy drill, they performed a Russian dance, holding a red handkerchief in one hand and a green one in the other. To be sure, one sweet old lady on the side lines was heard to remark, f'Now isn't that nice? They're showing us how to flag a train. Fortunately, this idea was not heard by the judges, for they finally awarded the cup to the Seniors and Class 7. mite 'Exhibition nf 1921 M. K.

She nearly collapsed into a state of coma on being unable to ind one. And now, because time and tide, and the almighty press, wait for no man, at least not for long, the unhappy creature is forced to make it all up herself, and to deal only imperfectly with a subject which is emphatically worthy of a better fate. This past year has been a critical period in the history of many things, includ- ing the League. Faced last spring with the fact that the Y. W. C. A. could no longer support us in the luxury to which we were accustomed, we had before us that choice of -two things-either we could close the League or we must carry on the torch ourselves. Sixty-six 'Ellie Zbirgu gllttuitir ogclfuul Elieaguc Partly because we were foolish, if not young, and partly because it was the merry month of June and winter seemed very far away, but mostly because no one except ourselves thought we could do it, we decided to carry on. During the summer, the League ran itself, with the assistance of a house- keeper. The money taken in from room rents and meals just about covered the current expenses. We did not peer too closely into the inner workings of the mechanism. We had no curiosity to see the wheels go around. Sufficient for us was the fact that the League was still there, rather dirty and dismal and unsavory, to tell the truth, but there, nevertheless. ln October, we really embarked on the great adventure. Down in the city, we cleaned house. Curtains were torn from their moorings and thrown into tubs, where they soaked hopelessly for days, windows were washed, furniture was moved with a firm, purposeful hand. Even the venerable piano was thrust forward protesting, and forced to part with the dust of ages which had collected behind it. A great smell of painting arose in the land. Simultaneously, up in the villa, the Board, or rather those who had survived the rival claims of marriage and travel, met, and, after persuading Mrs. Whitman that it was manifestly her duty and privilege to steer the ship on her maiden voyage, tried to decide what the course should be. And, after many charts had been pored over and many plans made and discarded, we decided, privately and publicly, that there was more in this than meets the eye. At this period of the voyage, after six months of varied adventure have passed, we are even more firmly convinced that this is true. The Y. W. C. A. lent us the building, and, what was quite as important and necessary, their counsel and encouragement. They have been consistently helpful, sharing our misfortunes and giving us all the credit for the things which we have done well. ln a simplified form, and as well as we could, we followed the usual plan in running the League. We were very fortunate in securing the services of Mrs. Aitken, who has managed the Business School very successfully. About eighteen girls are enrolled, about one-third of whom graduate in June, We have had after- noon clubs for girls under sixteen-one every afternoon except Saturday-and three night clubs for girls who work during the day. The International Institute, which is the branch of the Y. W. C. A., which deals with foreign people, asked permission to use the League one night aweek for an Italian Club. The League of Woman Voters holds its meetings there, and the city rents a restroom for its public health nurses. We serve lunch to an average of ten people each day, and at present there are seven people living in the house. The Business School Club, with the assistance of Constance Hall, is in the throes of rehearsing for a play to be presented at Easter. Miss Hamilton very kindly gave us permission to use the gvm at B. M. S., and every Wednesday night the basket-ball team practices. They didn't start, unfortunately, until rather late in the year, but what they lack in knowledge of the fine points of the game, they more than make up in determination. They go forth to battle but they always fall. lt doesn't seem to discourage them, however, and we hope that next year will tell adifferent story. Miss Snow's Bible class meets every Tuesday night, and, after finishing one rather successful dressmaking course, we are about to begin a second. We are planning a millinery course, too, if we find there is enough demand for it. Every Monday and Thursday afternoons we have a class in English literature. The bril- Sixty-se'Ue1z The Egrgn ,glllllufnr Schnnl league' liance of the class is equalled only by the indefatigable ambition of the teacher. Starting with Shakespeare, we have skipped nimbly to Longfellow, then to Poe, then to Washington Irving. We have now come to rest with Kipling. Can any class in B. Nl. S. compete with that record? We hope not. Three times during the winter we have had dances which have been very well attended by the youth and beauty of the community. This is necessarily a brief account of what we have tried to do. lt is in no wise a noteworthy record, nor one to boast about. There is so much more that we can do, so many more people that can be interested in the League, who ought to take a part in its life. But we sincerely believe that there is a future before us, a wonderful chance to do a big thing in a big way. Never before, at least, never for a long time, has there been as much enthusiasm and as much genuine interest manifested on the part of the Alumnae. Called upon, Hrst, to support the card party, and again only recently to support a large subscription dance, they have re- sponded admirably. Last year, for the Hrst time, the School became really inter- ested, and this interest has culminated this year in a gift of a hundred and seventy dollars, which they collected from Hfty cent dues. Our appreciation and thanks are especially due to them, because, with all their varied interests and demands, they have never once failed to help us when we called on them. W have arranged to have two benent performances of the Paint and Powder Club during Easter week, and if these are as successful as we hope they will be, we shall have enough money to carry us a long time. This year does not speak of startling results obtained or of great achieve- ments. Chiefly, it speaks of the faith and determination of a few people who, by their efforts, have aroused public interest and public opinion on the part of the Alumnae and future Alumnae, and of the generous response of those same Alumnae and future Alumnae who have given their time and their money toward making secure the future of the League, and have made it possible for the name of our school to be a vital thing in the lives of a great many people.
