A Glelvhritg nf E. Q. Sv.ss-Qlnzttinuvh l. When he read it he looked VVith this he placed my poem before the principa rather queer and said, You are right, she doesn't need a diploma. She's too smart for a Freshman, so I'1l make her a Junior. Then I was taken to a room where a lot of boys and girls were seated. Here I stayed until a bell rang. Then I went upstairs to the English room. Here I saw a very stern young lady whom I knew to be the teacher. Presently she said, Now, kids, you have only two minutes in which to write a ten page story. At the end of that time you must have your papers in. Every one moaned but me. I took my pen and wrote. I wove in the beauties of the Ozarks and the splendor of the New York village. I crammed in the gossip of the neighbors and the sadness of love. I mixed them and sifted them thoroughly. I took them apart and put them together again. Then I had an inspiration. Some- thing snapped in my brain. My pen moved of its own accord. Soon before me was my master-piece, a story full of hills, valleys, gossip and love. They read it eagerly. They took it to the printers and had it published. It was read in thousands of homes. The world went crazy over its merits. At last its popularity became so great the book stores advertised in this manner: The Broken Heart, six copies for twenty-live cents. My triumph was complete. RUTH PRICE, '18. 'hr ighantnnu, Hrrgil Ah that phantom! Ah that phantom, Vvlll he haunt me to my grave? Why will not the great God save me, From this ghastly phantom save! In my slumbers, ln my dreaming, How it haunts with glary eyes! How upon me he stands staring With those ghastly glary eyes! First translation now in scanslon, In this form he doth pursue, Till methinks I shall run mad be, Here I pay him homage due. Ah thou phantom, phantom Vergll, Wilt thou not leave me at peace? Think'st thou not that I am human? Cease thy nagging, cease it, cease! But at midnight, ah, at midnight As I vainly seek sweet sleep, This foul spectre comes a-gliding, Knowing soon my life he'll reap. Soon he'll reap it, soon he'll reap it, S0 be wary of my friend, Lest ye, too, should fall a victim To this ghastly phantom, friend. BULLOCK, '1S. Thirty
