• I aaksMaas «j ; :a!Hyi ' ?,!ar ' i w r;M i g !g r %ama and S ieec i One dav in early spring when Ab and his wife were walking along the flowerv path on top of the cliff, and the birds were singing and the brachiopods were humming quietlv, Ab felt so moved to joy that he sat down on a high rock and began to speak to himself about the wonders of life. And as he spoke, and his voice gained strength and new words came to him, his voice grew louder and richer, and his arms made great sweeping gestures almost of their own accord. And the other passers-by on the cliff road gathered around to watch this strange spectacle, but Ab was glad of their presence. As the crowd grew larger, the voice of Ab swelled and became even more eloquent, even to waxing lyri- cal in its intonations. But the wife of Ab, who was watching and listening in the shadow of the rock, felt her face grow red with shame, and she begged Ab to come down from the rock. Ab was sorrowful, but to please his wife he prepared to lca e his little platform. As he stepped down, the crowd of people beat their hands one against the other, making a loud but altogether pleasant sound. And Ab stepped up upon his platform once again, and spoke more grandly than ever. Dr. C. Willard Smith Mr. Harvey M. Powers, Jr. Dr. Kenneth W. Hooker Dr. Frank W.

CHcU One day Ab ' s wife came to him and told him she was bored, so she prevailed upon her mate to make a trip. And even though it was against his will, he agreed, and the next dav thev set out. After traveling for a few weeks thev came to a ri -er and in the middle of the ri ' cr was an isle. And there were people living on the isle who rowed across and welcomed Ab and his w ife and brought them to their village. Here there was a rare perfume in the air, and upon further investigation, Ab found that the scent was clinging to all the women. And for the first time Ab noticed that they were all beautiful; he also noticed that there seemed to be a woman behind every tree— and there were many, many trees. Ab ' s wife noticed also— especially she noticed the gleam in her mate ' s eve. And she was jealous so that she went to the market place and there bought many different skins to wear. She was most fond of the rarest skins, as women are wont. And Ab was kept busv for many days working to pay for what his wife had bought. And finally he became so tired that in the middle of one night, he awoke and carried his wife to the ri er. He borrowed a boat, and the rowed across, leaving behind the isle of desirable women and expensive skins. Dr. Douglas H. Orrok Dr. Gladys C. Cook PI DELTA PHI, National French Society Dr. Jean A.
