M THE L ' AGENDA OF NINETEEN TWENTY © UCKXKLL students, accustomed to the presence and person- ality uf their President, are not insensible to the life and work of the (|uiet ladv of the Presidential mansion, — the Mistress (if the Manse, — ministrant to his success, and, thrdu. h him, to their welfare. Mrs. Harris in her place in the church, surrounded hy her stalwart sons, has represented to them their own mothers, the home-makers, and the mistresses of those futiu ' e homes the}- fondly dream of rearing , in coming years. The qualities developed in motherhood, — untiring- devo- tion, and self-effacement, — Mrs. Harris manifests to all her friends. When her famil - no lunger needed her personal care, she turned to the needs of all hoys and young men, and devoted herself to the W. C. T. U. In her wnrk for temperance she did quietly many of the difficult and disagreeahle tasks so indispensable to success. It is not in keeping vith the retiring sweetness of her character to take a prominent part in ]Hililic meetings, hut she is alwa ' s willing and ready to do whatever serv- ice is necessarv to attain the end in view. She is interested in all forms of church and charitable work, and a faithful and loyal particijiant. The -oung women of the L ' nixersity have learned to know her liest in her own home. Thev look forward to aiding her in various college functions, and in such association they are imiiressed with her simplicity and sin- cerity. To the girls who have gone out from Bucknell. she has been an example of true womanly worth. When they liaxe enjoyed her hos- pitalitv for the one never to be forgotten evening, as their last commence- ment drew nigh. and. with a gallant class-mate, have caught a glimpse of her well ordere l household, the} ' ha -e awaked to the inestimable alue of the ministrv of the President ' s silent partner, the sharer of his joys and success; the insiairer of his haj piest hours; his comforter in tinie of de- ])ression and loss; his adxiser in all his great plans and undertakings. With Cjuiet grace and clignit}-. with friendshi]) sincere and unpreten- tious, with devotion to all the great tasks which her sisters are esjiousing in the momentous era in which she is calletl to live and work, the Presi- dent ' s wife has shared his growth, and the progress of his achie ements for the college : she has expanded in s -mpathy with his world-encom- passing vision of the future of the race ; and she has put her hand to the task of aiding the coming of that kingdom he has so faithfully proclaimed. ♦ . ♦ ♦
