CL SS OF 1937A GRADUATION We leave thee, Alma Mater dear, Amidst a stirring sightg Our marching figures disappear Into the summer night. Receding strains of Auld Lang Sync Float faintly through the air And mark the last of one more class To leave your splendid care. IOHN BLATEOS.

24 IUNE fHGLA!A NUMBER OF THE ORACLE back. He must be wondering about this con- versation. NELLIE: It was he who advised it. HENRIETTE: Then ..... NELLIE: fwithout the least hostility, but also without affection, Come, my dear Hen- riette, have you something more to say to me? HENRIETTE: No. NELLIE: :Why, then, do you no longer act the same toward me? I-IENRIETTE: I am wrong. NELLIE: You have given yourself so gen- erously, so completely to your brother, dur- ing all his life, is it painful to you now to have no longer the sole care of his happiness and his future? I-IENRIETTE: Perhaps that is it. NELLIE: ffriendly, but not tenderj Hen- riette, we can't become angry with each other for such a reason ..,.. You can't wish that HENRIETTE: No, indeed, indeed, nol I do not wish it. Quite on the contrary! NELLIE: The simplest thing in the world has happened. Henry is going to be mar- riad. Already the ties which hind him to his family are no longer the only ties which bind him. It's life ,... every day life The Bible says: Thou shalt leave thy father and thy mother ....,. Plaainly it is painful for the family, but one must adjust oneself to it ,.,.. At home, in the United States, we do not make so much fuss about it ..,.. A boy leaves ,....marries....., Well, Try your luck .... In France, you put emotion into every- thing ,..... HENRIETTE: fas if to excuse herselfj I am a French woman. NELLIE: And a beautiful one! but you do not stop to think that, unless we guard ourselves against it, this error of emotion brings us both precisely where we do not wish to go, that is to say, to the point of sep- aration? I-IENRIETTE: fcoldlyj Your words are those of reason itself? I have to make some effort in order to adjust myself to the new conditions of my existence. Henry's coming marriage is a separation, it is a break ...,.. QWith a restrained emotionj a tearing apart. I feel the sorrow of it. Perhaps you might have perceived that and spared me certain painful experiences. NELLIE: Painful experiences? What have they been? HENRIETTE: What advantage will there be in telling them? NELLIE:What advantage? This impor- tant one: that they don't happen again. Why keep them secret? HENRIETTE: Donit you know them? Didn't you just have an example of them, just now? You dispose of Henry as you would of your chauffeur ..,... Why ...... , yes ,... . and sometimes you speak to him in the same tone. These are the customs of your coun- try, it seems. You might take a little pains in order to bring yourself a little nearer to our customs, since you are going to live in France. LILLIAN LEFABRE.
