The first, La Criada Astutaf' showed how a clever little maid succeeded in baffling one of senorita's unwelcome suitors. From the second play, Una Visitau, we learned that Spanish ladies are quite as interested in spring millinery as are the girls of C. G. A, Al Mercado , the third play, was a lively portrayal of Spanish housewives at the market. Besides improving their pronunciation and adding to their vocabulary in this interesting manner, the members of the class have acquired a more intimate knowledge of Spanish manners and customs. May 'AViva el Espanol be the motto of ' Las Estrellas as they carry into the future the success of the first efforts of their organization. Catherine Herlsers, 'L7 64

riplpled from soul to soul and has kept bringing him a tidal wave of do ars ever since. I'm mighty glad to hear of Amy's good luck, chimed in Mrs. Simpkins, but tell her if she wants to keep her husband's regard to be sure to buy a Jazzitha for her new home. Send no money--just pay the postman 51.47 plus postage on delivery. Many a marriage as been made a lasting romance by an appealing melody. At this point, Mrs. DeVan and the tea wagon appear. I know you are expecting my famous tea cakes, said she, and you can imagine my dismay, when at the last minute I found I had let myself run out of baking powder, so I had to resort to sour milk and 'Arm and I-Iammer', and I fear for results. But the eggs, thank goodness! were so fresh that the hen was still cackling when I beat them up. Why, my dear, said Mrs. Romney, nibbling at one of the speckly soda biscuits, these are so delicious that they'd make the saddest, most reluctant palate smile. That isn't a diamond you're flashing, is it, Mrs. DeVan? No, this is just my old ring in a different setting. A few months ago, said she, extending her sha ely white hand, if you had asked to see my ring I would have hiddDen my hands in shame for they always looked as ifI had just lifted them out of boiling water. And, ladies, -this in a whisper- do you know that the appearance of your hands is capable of causin your husband many twinges of acute mental pain? So I tried to End a lotion which would banish all traces of housework. Archibald says my hands do not say 'dish- pan' now. Mrs. Ayers at this moment calls excitedly from the window, Did you notice that there's something wrong across the street? Yesterday their little boy didn't come out to play with my Junior. A little while a o a doctor went away, and just now a man came and tacked a red card on their door. I daresay that child's folks have been neglecting to give the poor little fellow his bran flakes. Well, that's a pity, remarked Mrs. DeVan sadly, but there's many a 'well-fed' person slowly starving to death through neglect of Nature's simple elps to abundant hea th and rosy beauty. gust then the shrill honk of a car made Mrs. Ayers run to the win ow. Well, if that isn't my Emeline already! She said she'd call for me at five o'clock but I never dreamed it was so late. Come on, ladies, I'll give you all a chance to try our new car. It is absolutely shock proof. Quietly submissive to the touch of a woman's hand. One minute more and I'll be with you, said Mrs. Simpkins. just let me take another sip of this tea. It surely is 'good to the last drop'. Helen Connell, '17 63
