Forty-seven THE • PENNSnV4MAM 5 A Theme, A Class and Its History A history — a class history? Well, first of all, e ery history is really a true stor -, and every worthwhile stor ' has a theme. Briefl -. our story, the first chapter of shich is four ears long, is to be a con- tinued one. It is all part of the way of things. We know e ery inch of the roles we have played as a class in this first past chapter, but we can only look forward to a masterly handling of our future. Our his- tory is more than in the making, it is making itself, and it will take much of its color from the experiences we have gained w hile the setting was P. C. W. For after all, we have our theme — Always, dear coUetie. we will sing to yon Always, dear college, we will cherish you. In a trill of melody. We will hind your gayety. In a wisp of loveliness. We will wind your fiiendliness. And purple streamers tied with white Shall guard against your spirit ' s flight. Always, our memory shall image you — Ahuays, our college, P. C. 11 ' . So we sang, and out of our singing arose a consciousness of our- sel es as a class that we had never before so fully realized. There was something wonderfullx ' comforting in the realization, for w ' knew then that we could go on. on — always building upon the introduction to our history we are just completing this spring — 1931. Some dates in history the world has deigned to consider important, but we. who ha e so compietel}- become a class, must dictate what it is to think of ours. . nne Ritenolr, Class President.

Under the resourceful guidance of Miss Coolidge, who was then dean of the college, the organization de ' eIoped ery rapidl ' . Da ' students were admitted into the Student Government body in 1913-14 and Miss Janet Brownlee was elected first Student Government President. The Student Goxernment Association embraces the entire student bodv. Its purpose is to regulate and control the student life in so far as delegated b ' the administration, and to uphold the best interests of the college communit - both in conduct and scholarship. The Student Executi ' e Board consists of fourteen representa- tives of the .Association and forms the Honor Council which deals with violations in ' olving academic honor. Representatives of our student bod ' this year attended two of the most important conferences for Student Government, namely, the Twenty-third Annual Meeting of the Women ' s inter-collegiate Association at New Jersev College for Women, and the Sixth An- nual Congress of the National Student Federation of America at Georgia Tech, .37iWR3B ' ' THF • PENNSVLVAN I A M 5 Young Women ' s Christian Association President ------- Margaret Jefferson, Vice-President ------ Dorothy HuiMphre ' ' , Secretary - Bett ' i ' Clarke.

We have tai en as our theme Modern Life as it Affects College Students. The first phase to be considered was the religious and this was done b ' means of discussion groups and addresses given by speakers from all o ' er the cit_ ' . Social Service was the second topic and here the activities of the Association were both con- structive and instructive. We also paid a great deal of attention to the life of those in other nations. A World Fellowship Tea started us off with a desire to know more about the world in which we live and this was followed up by programs and discussion groups. We also touched on .Modern Drama, Literature, .Music, and other phases of modern life which were of interest to the membership. In order to broaden the scope of our programs we were assisted by the various clubs in college in putting on meet- ings. Our year may be summarized as one where we worked, played, and thought together and so materially increased the circle of our friendships. Sixty-five TMF • PFNNSYLVA N IAM !

' 34 TH E - P ENNSYLVA N IAN ' i pm The House Board Every student has a more or less clear idea of the function of Student Government and tlie V, W. C. A., but onl - tiie iiouse girls have an acquaintance with the House Board. 1 he day girls know in a vague way that there is such an organization, that it maintains quiet in the dormitory during study hours and that certain penalties are imposed for infractions of the constitution. But the Ffouse Board has become something more than an organ- ization for the purpose of carrying out regulations. Mouse Board members, for example, serve as hostesses at the tables. The Board has subscribed for various magazines out of its dues and the drawing room tables now display your favorite — Harper ' s, Scrtbner ' s, or ' ' be Saturday Evening Post. The Board has arranged musicals to be given every Sunday afternoon, after dinner, coffee being served in the drawing room. Saturday even- ing parties have also been planned with the House Board members serving as hostesses. The constant aim of the Board this year has been not onlv to uphold all existing rules, but to anal} ' ze changing situations and suggest improvement, not only to keep the students quiet but to keep them comfortable and happy as well.

Glee Club Glee Club is one of the traditions of P. C. W., but unlii e some traditions which have been cast aside during the last few }ears, it has continued to remain firmly established among college activities. The change of directors last fall. Miss Keil succeeding Mrs. Rock- well, necessitated hard work and whole-hearted co-operation. Miss Keil ' s directing was new to the club and the group was equally new to her. Because of the necessary adjustment, there was a long period of practice before a finished program could be presented. The Glee Club took part in many college programs during the year. No Thanksgiving. Christmas or Commencement service would be com- plete without an anthem by this faithful and willing group of choristers. A joint concert with Tech, followed by a dance, always serves to increase interest and efficiency during the month of Februarw E er - year several church engagements hold an important place on the club calen- dar. Early last fall a tea was given in honor of Miss Keil and the new members. It was remarkable how ice cream, cake, and daint} ' mints affected the vocal chords. The next rehearsal was a big success! Admission into the club was limited and attendance at rehearsals strictly required, and Glee Club under the new svstem has been a singing group indeed.

The group had as their purpose the presentation of pla s and the stimulation of interest in good drama. For a number of years, the club presented children ' s pla s and had for an audience a houseful of delighted -oungsters. In the 1928 and 192 9 seasons, the club spon- sored one-act play contests between the classes instead of the usual three-act play. These plays were directed b ' the members of the faculty and were judged by persons not directly connected with the school. The contest in 1928 was won by the Juniors with their pre- sentation of Maselield ' s The Locked Chest, and in 1929 b ' the Fresh- men, who gave Susan Glaspell ' s Trifles. This year, however, the club adopted an entirely new scheme. It succeeded in accomplishing what it had tried to do for several years — a student production. A musical comedy version of Alice in Wonderland was this year ' s presentation. It was written, staged, and directed bv students. This production showed that students are reall ' capable of designing and making costumes and sets and of directing their own plays. We hope that 1930 will mark the beginning of a new era — the era of student productions in the Dramatic Club.

They named their organization Omega in compliment and comple- ment to Alpha , a similar club at Smith to which Miss Coolidge be- longed. In order to stimulate interest in literary activity in the school, Omega in 1912 conducted a short story contest, offering membership in the club and a club pin for the best story submitted. This became an annual custom and last ) ' ear the contest was open to members of the club as well as non-members. Omega ' s program this year has consisted largely of the reading of examples of x ' arious literary forms: the drama, the essay, poetry, the short story, and the sketch — taken from both student and professional work. Several speakers, too, addressed the club on special subjects. TMF • PFNNSYLVA NI AM 5 Phi Pi President -------- Gertrude Ferrero.

At the first meeting this 3 ' ear, the birthday of Virgil was celebrated by having a large cake with candles and beautifully prepared favors. One of the new features of the club ' s program this year was an old- fashioned get-together day when the Alumnae gathered to greet the present members. However interesting the meetings of the j ' ear were — and memories of the Freshman initiation in February are especially vivid — the triumph of the entire schedule was the Roman Banquet held at Stoney Corners. The membership is open onl} ' to those students who ha ' e satisfac- torily completed one semester at least of Latin or Greek. A feature that is entirely unique with Phi Pi is the artistic little program which is presented to each member at the beginning of the year and which states the schedule for the entire season.

It is toda ' a flourishing club with over twenty-five members and provides, in many cases, the sole opportunity for French conversation outside the class- room. Not only is the language spoken, but there is- a sincere attempt to capture and maintain an atmosphere hospitable to its usage. The program this year opened with a miniature Monte Carlo with gambling and other forms of diversion conducted in French. It was of course a get acquainted aifair to initiate the new memfjers. The aim of the succeeding meetings has been to familiarize the members with the various aspects of French life and culture. Scenes from Pre- ost ' s Maiion Lescaut wert one of the many delightful presentations. Several short plays have been given throughout the year and when the girls are not acting or watching performances, they get together and sing French songs. Y. V. has asked the aid of the club this year in arranging a Christmas program consisting of songs and an original play. The greatest service of this club to the students is that it makes French something living and real, something everyday, and not just another course to take for credit.

This ambition was realized in 1930 when, after a trial debate, a team was chosen to represent P. C. W. in a contest with the women ' s debating team of Allegheny College, The c uestion under consideration was Resolved: The Defects of the Machine Age Outweigh the Benefits, Our team maintained the affirma- tive, unsuccessfully, but with a competence that gives us hope for future victories. Since ever} ' question has its pro ' s and con ' s, the scope of a debating club is as great as the scope of knowledge itself, and the programs of Kappa Tau Alpha for the year 1931 have been based on this principle. General discussion, book reviews and a presentation of a newspaper composed of human columns, have taken the place of team debates. The club plans later in the year to reproduce Darrow ' s debate on re- ligion. A spirited spring program is planned when Kappa Tau Alpha will debate with Ursinus College on the advisability of adopting a policy of free trade.

W. has long had its literary society and its classical society. Modern languages have been recognized in formal organization and dramatic ambition has for years had its opportunity. The organization of a group of biolog} ' students in 1928 into a club with scientific aims was significant beyond its external interest. Women students were be- coming scientifically minded in the traditional masculine way. Chem- istry was something more than just a required credit. Physics was not altogether beyond the young ladies ' sphere of interest. Bringing the classroom eagerness into a more social setting, this small group of biology students formed a club that has since extended its interests and its membership to include workers in all branches of science. Limited to Juniors and Seniors, it is composed primarily of students majoring in science, but those interested in scientific matters, who have had two years of science are also eligible. Next to scientific interest, high scholastic standing is a prime requirement. Interest is keen from the initiation meetings in the fall, where the learned old members listen to the new discourse upon such subjects as the reproduction of the cranberry, to the spring field trips which are taken even though the snow is a foot high.

I Zeta Kappa Psi For a considerable time, P. C. W. ' s interests in dramatics, literature, social service, the classics, and history were consolidated in and their activities promoted through clubs. Music was stran ' el - omitted. Of course there was the Glee Club, but it was more of a college institution than simpl ' a club. Man ' felt the need of a club which would take in the different phases in t he musical world of the past as well as of today. Zeta Kappa Psi was organized for this purpose. It began in October, 1929, with tweUe charter members. They met at the suggestion of Miss Goodell, head of the Music Department. They decided to form a club for the purpose of performance and for the study of the history of music. Since that time, the club has flour- ished, meeting once a month and giving carefully planned programs. Each program has some unifying idea. Last year music representative of the arious European nations was studied. American music is being studied this vear, including Indian melodies, Negro spirituals. Cowboy and Kentucky Mountaineer ballads, jazz and its significance as a popu- lar manifestation, and the works and lives of the leading American composers. The club undertook a C hapel program on Wednesday, November 19, 1930. and presented a miscellaneous selection of instru- mental and ocal music. It was a successful advertisement, pro ing that Zeta Kappa Psi is a club to be enthusiastic about, as it is enthusi- astic about itself and works in the moving spirit of the music it loves so well. 5 TMF • PFN I MSVLVAM I AM Religious Discussion Club Preidt ' ut --------- Olive Wycoff, ' 31 Vice-P resident -------- Betty Long, ' 31 Secretary- ' !

The club was organized in 1929 by a group of students who were sincerely interested in orienting themselves in the field of philosophical and religious thought. Its origin was as spon- taneous as any such organization can be as it arose out of the common feeling that class room discussion was ' unsatisfactorily limited by con- siderations of time and purpose. With Dr. Scott to rescue the discussion from occasional digressions into only distantly related fields, the club has conducted spirited pro- grams along the line of such topics as, Was Christ Human or Divine? What is Hell? And modern problems in religious education. Eighty-nine ■the: • PENN SVLVANIAM 5 Lambda Pi Mu President --------- 1-lorence Wise. ' 31 Vice-President ------- Helen Wonders.

This success is reached through the inspiring guidance of its honorary members, Miss Meloy, in whose honor the club was named, and Miss Flynn; and the vital interest and enthusiasm that the members themselves exhibit. Organized in 1921, the size of the membership has varied ver - little as the charter members numbered fifteen and at present there are eigh- teen active members listed. The rquirements for admission to the club are the study and interest in social service work. The club endeavors to make its members better acquainted with all the social agencies and activities of the Pittsburgh district through talks by experienced and trained social workers and discussions of problems by the members themselves. A grov ing club tradition is the annual Christmas project. This ) ' ear, the members made clever, bright-colored bunnv-dolls with cun- ning button eyes and stitched whiskers. After some difficulty in secur- ing the dolls from the members (who quite forgot the ' were grown up college girls instead of the children for whom the dolls were intended) they were sent to the children of the Pittsburgh Home for Babies. A Student Loan Fund is created out of the returns from the annual Tea Dance that the club sponsors soon after the prom and this fund has enabled man ' talented students to pursue their studies.

C. W., The Arrow made its initial flight. Only it was not yet known as it is today: P. C. W. ' s daughters read the monthly Sorosis in 1894. With the gradual evolution of the college, the need of a bi-monthly newspaper was felt and The Arron) appeared in 1921. Late in 1928, the bi-monthly became a weekly and adopted a more purely journalistic policy. With the first squawks and hoots of The Campus Owl , the paper has attempted to create a symposium of student opinion, in addition to presenting the latest college news. THE PENNSYL ANI. N Despite financial difficulties great enough to discourage a less hardy plant, the yearbook has persisted valiantly through the struggling efforts of business man- agers and editors to present to each class the biography of its composite life. Since 1922, P. C. W. has had an annual. In the lean years, when it was felt that the book was too much of an expense for the senior class alone to support, it became the yearbook of both the juniors and seniors. For the last two years, however, the seniors have wanted a book of their own. They have wanted it because no other school project takes each girl with such complete seriousness, such a readiness to acknowledge both equalities and distinctions, or imparts such a full consciousness of school solidarity. THE MINOR BIRD As this goes to press, there have been to date, two issues of our literary maga- zine. It has almost earned the distinction of an annual, although it makes no such pretensions. Inspired by Robert Frost ' s poem of the same name, it carried on the work that The EngUcode had performed earlier. But The F.nglicode lost its identity, it was merged with The Arrow, and appeared at intervals bounded on the west by journalism and on the east by advertising. The Minor Bird was a bolder venture — a flight of P. C. W. ' s fledgling authors into the realm of print. THE HAND BOOK In a yearbook featuring the college girl of yesterday, how could we better characterize this small but significant publication than by quoting the description which we found buried within the covers of a 1924 Pennsylvanian ' Did you wish when you came to college that you had a perpetual ad isor to answer all the questions that came to our mind both before our arri al and after? Did you wonder what college girls do besides stud ing and having spreads? Did 3 ' ou know whether you could see Jim in peace or whether you would have to have a chaperone tagging along? Did ou know how man ' school and college pennants it would take to cover the walls of your room? If ou did not know these things you can see the value of such a publication as the P. C. W. Handbook.

Girls whom we had always suspected of being rather lovel ' suddenl}- prove it and the faculty are obliged to be exceedingly friendly to show that they are not ;:o magnificent as they appear. Of course Slemmy would look stunning and my dear, did you see JVlarion Stone! The color was perfect and Caroline Brady .... and what trick little programs. . . . And so on to the Tea Dance given by Lambda Pi Mu the Saturdav following Prom. Cakes and tea. . . . and some very elegant tea gowns .... oh, we ' re all in favor of benefits! Interclass dances occur during the year and help to maintain that democratic equality that makes Freshmen as discourteous as Seniors. At the Freshman- Sophomore Dance, the Freshmen undergo a little informal hazing in the form of a receiving line, and after the music has begun these oung people show that they did not come to college to learn how to dance. The Junior-Senior Fall Dance is the first formal opportunity to learn the latest about news, clothes, and boyfriends. The Spring House Dance extends from the Chapel to Woodland Hall Drawing Room and if you stand in the driveway, you ma - hear the combined but not sychronized efforts of two orchestras. The Junior-Freshman Tea is an opportunity for the Freshmen to become acquainted with their sister class and on this occasion, it is usually good form for the Freshman to seem impressed. But they are presented to all four classes at the Get-Acquainted Party where everyone is guarded against loss in the mails b} ' identification tags. The Hallowe ' en Party is a vivid entertainment with Charlie Chaplins, and monkeys, and skeletons and gypsies otherwise created out of school girls. The students play jokes on the faculty, and the faculty play jokes on the students — and, sometimes, the administration pla -s its joke on e ' eryone. Dramatic Functions The Department of Speech has been fortunate this year in ha ing a variet of interesting personalities able to carry out several unusual projects. Dramatic Club, too, is to be congratulated in this respect as this organization has pro ided much of the impetus necessary for such ambitious undertakings. There was, first, the musical presentation, Alice in Wonderland, which was entirely the work of the student members of Dramatic Club. Suggestions from Miss Robb and Miss Kerst were gratefully received, but the script, songs, sets, costumes, and directing were the work of the students. It was not only a student production but an original production. The Cradle Song was another performance unusual in that the pla - is a One hundred six TMF.PFKIN?iVIVANIAKI peculiarly difficult test of the acting ability of every character. It is a quiet, emotionally tense play with no leading figure to carry the responsibility. It is a play that cannot rely upon sensation either in setting or acting, but that must be performed with a subtle perfection. Our girls are to be congratulated for under- taking such a piece of work. The Christmas Pageant was an impressive ceremonial performance that also had its source in the originality and taste of the students in the Play Production course, it was a feature of the Christmas Vesper Service and added a moving beauty to the service. The Senior Play, The Ivory Door, bringing in half the class in the cast and involving the other half in enthusiastic support of the project, was a fantastic de- lightful thing with all the elements of a fairy tale for the college student of 1931. Musical Functions This year, as usual, musical e ' ents occupied a large and enjoyable part of the year ' s calendar at P. C. W. The fall recitals of the music faculty were especially memorable. There was Miss Carlson ' s piano recital. Miss Keil ' s vocal concert, Miss Welker ' s interpretive playing, and Miss Goodell ' s organ recital. Miss Goodell ' s chapel music is always well chosen and adds considerably to the beauty of the service. Color Day is always an amusing and highly successful event on our college program. There are the class meetings and the inter-class rivalries to arouse the fighting and singing spirit in each of us. This year the Sophomores won the prize with a lovely -song that seems to fulfill every requirement necessary for a good college song. The music was written by Gene Llewellyn and the words by Dorothy Edsall. The Seniors followed with Honorable Mention for two original songs, Always Dear College, and The Younger Generation. P. C. W. ' s two musical clubs are also active in providing musical programs. Glee Club has given us choral music on our more solemn occasions and has proved its excellence at the Glee Club Concert during the winter. Zeta Kappa Psi, the club for performers and composers of music, gave a well-rounded chapel concert with instrumental and vocal solos. There are two activities of the Music Department which, we may justly say, are nearest to its heart. These are the Departmental Recitals occurring every month, and the Senior Recitals in the spring. The Departmental are credit to our music courses and give students an opportunity to perform before a sympa- thetic audience. The Senior Recitals are the crowning events in the college career of the music majors. What a vast amount of labor is spent in the effort to present an artistic program at your first concert! This year we will have three Senior per- formances. Sally Cecil, in voice; Margaret Ray, in piano; and Betty Schultz, ip organ. One hundred seven TMF ■ P FNNSnvaM I AM i ln|Retrospect An active school year of labor and enterprise, with its fund of deHghtful ex- periences draws to a close. Not so long ago we were meeting again on the steps of Berry Hall with gay greetings for the new term. Soon we heard interesting reports of the faculty on their summer ' s events, discovered the eye-opening but short-lived blue paint in the gym, and met our Freshmen at the Y. W. Get-Acquainted Party. Y. W. launched a valuable and diversified program on the problems of the college girl and the affairs of a modern world. Once again the girls of P. C. W. were welcomed by the churches. Recitals by faculty members of the Music De- partment and concerts by our Glee Club made our chapel periods most enjo -abie. The N ' ear ' s lecturers will be remembered with pleasure: Homer St. Gaudens discussing the Art Exhibit on October 15: M. Pierre de Lanux at 1. R. C.. Novem- ber 4; Lady JVIargaret Deneke ' s lecture-recital on N ' o ember 14; Lucille Douglass on Angkor — a Royal Passion , November 18: Dr. Galbreath at our Christmas service: Dr. Averardi on Famous Women of the Italian Renaissance , Januar ' 8; on January 15, Failures and Achievements of Dictatorship in Turke b ' Mme.

Ratcliffe ' s talk on India , March 2: and on .March 31, the lecture by Dame Rachel Crowdy. The athletic season opened with a novel fall tennis-bridge tournament ending October 15, then a rousing hockey schedule with the Seniors victoriousl ' feted at the hockey dinner, December 15, at the Congress of Clubs. Baseball, badminton, and swimming, occupied the play hours of others. Delightful social events filled the year: the Flallowe ' en Party with its strange disclosures, October 24; Color Day, October 30, with victory for the Sophomores: the Freshman-Sophomore Dance on November 14, followed by that of the Juniors and Seniors on the 7th. We all followed Alice Through Wonderland, November 21-22, and enjoyed the Faculty benefit play, Berkeley Square, on December 8. The Y. W. International Tea, December 9: Parent ' s Night, December 10, with the opening of Buhl Hall; the Tea for Margalo Gilmore and Leslie Howard, December 12; the eagerly-awaited stay of Mr. John T. Frederick, February 23-24: not for- getting the one and only Junior Prom, March 6: and the original Sophomore Class entertainment March 13-14; original pla s on . pril 0; — all are now pleasant mem- ories. Finally we saw the advent of Senior Class Daw their Baccalaureate sermon, and soon following, Commencement on June 8. In all its aspects memorable, its passage by everyone regretted, 1930-31 grows dimmer as we scan ahead to where lies waiting, vague yet full of promise, 1931-32.

Being in a mood scarcely pontifical enough for the front section of the book, e have scampered back here where we can talk things over comfortably. By our elegant Latin title, we intend no defense of our work, but rather an acknowledgment of the aid we have received. Gf our staff, the greater part carried out our incoherent suggestions in a flatteringly effective manner. We name no names, for they are conscious of their good works and know that Heaven will shower them with blessings. As to the others, well, they may forever regret that they did not join more heartily in a thankless, but still glorious undertaking. Our faculty advisor consoled us when circumstances pressed too closel ' and refrained from guiding us into the paths of censorship. We are indebted, too. (not liter- ally) to the Canton Engraving Company, the White Studios, and The Ziegler Printing Company for their patient and effective service. We might sa - things, too, about the student body, but our Feature lidilor and her assistants are be- coming impatient. You ha e ignored us too long, they shout, stand back and give us the stage! Yesterday ' s Tomorrow April 1, 189=;. My dear Lois: Lately 1 have been hearing such interesting things about several of our class- mates that I feel I simply must share them with you. Did you know, for example, that Flo Wise is one of the leading lights in the Women ' s Suffrage Movement? I hear that in the excitement of one of their meetings she actually ' threw a brick at some wretched interfering policeman. Doubtless you will agree that her conduct was most unseemly, but it was a brave gesture in a glorious cause. Olive cofF is an influential member of the W. C. T. V. Imitating her heroine. Carrie Nation, she completely destro} ' ed one of those horrible corner saloons with a bright and shining hatchet purchased for the occasion. It was a splendid thing to do and 1 feel so sorry that some crude and unfeeling officer should have had her incarcerated for disturbing the peace. While I am talking about these inspiring reform movements. 1 must tell you that . ' nne Bozic has just departed for Paris to see what can be done about suppressing Oscar Wilde — or perhaps it is merel - his works. I always was vague about details. Anne Ritenour ' s training in diplomac - as class president for two ears has been invaluable, especially since she married the Ambassador to the Court of St. James. She recently interceded for Lucille Laughlin who was inciting socialist riots in the English mining districts. One hundred tweUe TMF ' PFNKI ;YLVANIAM And now, my dear, here is disturbing news. Betty Jenkins is touring the country giving lectures on Evolution! I like to think that 1 am broadminded but that is a little too much. Besides, I never could bear monkeys! It ' is with relief that 1 consider the splendid career of Anna Davis. She has become a renowned Methodist Evangelist and daily brings comfort and beauty into the lives of the down-trodden masses. They say her eloquence is amazing. Henny Scott heard her speak and was so moved that she spends all of her time sewing for the foreign missions. It is sad that all of our girls cannot be so worthily engaged. 1 was told that Eleanor Martin and Gertrude Getting are understudying the Flora Dora Girls. So unladylike! But speaking of scandalous performances, my dear, what do you think of this? Margaret Jefferson has become the leader of a very Bohemian group and they say she actually smokes cigarettes! Sometimes 1 wonder if there is not something sinister in this swing of the pendulum toward radicalism. Re- member Bab lon! Why, Lois McKibben and Lida Fischler were daring enough to be seen at Rector ' s in the company of young gentlemen without a chaperone! I was also much shocked to hear that Naomi Bowser had been reproved by the minister for riding a tandem. One would think she would be more circumspect. Here is something that I know will interest you. Peg Forrester is a captain in the Salvation Army. I saw her in a parade the other day, her banner streaming in the breeze. It was quite an inspiring sight. I had such a lovely afternoon the day 1 attended the poetry group organized by Martha Bradshaw and Beatrice Lewis. At present they are studying our be- loved Tennyson and Mrs. Browning. 1 am so glad they are ignoring these im- possible moderns. But then, conservatism is so much more suitable lor one of Beatrice ' s temperament. The other day, while 1 was reading Betty Trimble ' s Book of Etiquette. 1 had a letter from Nora Weichel and learned that she is now the dean of the Sleepy ■Valley Select Female Seminary. Nora was always so enthusiastic about educa- tional measures and matters of discipline. She says the girls must all be in their rooms by seven in the evenings, but they are allowed late permission until ten once a month. They must be lovely girls. She writes that Noushka has come to the school in the capacity of Official Song Writer. Noushka ' s songs always had such a lovely sentiment. 1 must stop now, my dear, Mother is calling me to adjust the flounces on my pink satin. Do write and let me know what you have heard. Not that 1 approve of gossip — not at all ! Most affectionately, CLAI P. S. Just received an announcement of the Church Supper that Lou Turner is managing. She always arranges our suppers at church and we have such jolly times.

The Charter was granted some time ago and the College has devoted itself unswervingl - to the service of sophistication. It is the aim of the College to develop the characteristics which go to make up the peppiest type of flapperhood, and matters of curriculum and administration are considered whenever possible. Courses of Instruction General Zoology — It is the purpose of this course to o ' erlook bugs and other un- pleasant creatures of the Animal Kingdom, and to stud - in detail jewelr - made of butterflv wings and humming birds impaled on the nev.est hats from Paris. Quantitative Analysis — Calibration of weights and ' olumetric apparatus. The theory and practice of typical gravimetric and olumetric analysis. (Omit- ted 1930-31 and forever after). Fundamentals of Speech — Dexised to develop an accent for all occasions. A story-telling group will meet every once in a while w hen the e ents of the night before will be circulated more or less generalls ' . .As the regular class hour is usually scheduled at an inconvenient time, the students may merely sign pledg es to the effect that the - have spoken for at least five minutes ever} ' day. English Composition — Required of all candidates for a C. C. C. diploma. Not wishing the course to be too much of a strain, the administration prox ' ides a model of the type of theme desired so that the student need not waste half the term finding out what a topic sentence really is: OL R WANDERING MIND One is faced quite frequentl} ' with the ' ariousl - peculiar characteristics of the so called mind. I am sitting in the twilight of a dimly lighted, cozy little room, surrounded by an atmosphere on all sides of the room, 1 am reading a wonderful story by Edgar Rice Burroughs about Tarzan and a princess v ho was supposed to have come from Mars, and a lot of apes. 1 find msself lost in the story, too absorbed to notice the wind pounding on the window panes and hurling about the loose slate on the roof. My mind becomes blank concerning all worldl ' concerns. 1 read and read, for I know real well what is going to happen and 1 want to see if 1 am right. The plot deepens causing my nerves to be on edge: m. ' heart beats its way out of its resting cavity — but oh, what is that noise! A voice calls from the distance and the door opened. They found me, a quivering, muttering, livid shell of what I was before 1 began to read the storw 1 recognize m - aunt and 1 feel better when I explained. This is just one of the many examples of the wand- erings of the human mind. It will be seen in the above example, that the student has not 6nl - developed her topic sentence to an alarming degree but that she has worked for an emotional effect. One hundred twenty TMF ♦ PFKIKIflVLVANIAM Dear Diary Rumors came to us as we meditated about LIFE. Several little cross-sections of LIFE had been found lying about the school. Was LIFE hidden behind a tin of peppermints, or diluted in the blots of a fountain pen? Mary Wooldridge and Betty Ramsay assured us it was so. According to Mary, the peppermint box had hidden these fragments of The Diary of The Co-op Mouse. ■DE.AR DIARY: Sept. 21, 1930. Can ' ou imagine me, Henrietta Mouse, only eight weeks old, in love! FLs name is Cicero and he ' s so handsome, with such elegant, white-tipped whiskers. 1 met him in the large room upstairs u ' here 1 found chocolate-covered nuts, and some — oh, you ' ll never guess — some cheese tid-bits! Cicero was there and 1 was going to brush past him with my whiskers when fate brought us together. A sud- den beam of light and a loud crash made Cicero and me run right into each other! When 1 recovered myself, there 1 was, in his arms. 1 could feel his silky hair and see how soft and pink his ears were. Then 1 disentangled myself, and Cicero and I talked for a long time. 1 learned that he ' s a graduate of the University of Roquefort and that he made the Cheese Connoisseurs when he was four weeks old. Oh, 1 can hardly wait to meet him tomorrow by the box of Krinkly Krusts! (Sept. 22) I ' m a married mouse. Diary, married to Cero (1 call him that for short) under the mantle in the Dean ' s office. We live in the cutest little corner hole all filled with cheese. Cero ' s fondness for cheese worries me. (Sept. 24) Oh, Diary, I can ' t believe that Cero ' s gone! It was cheese that took him from me. Fie whiskered ' Cheese ' , in my ear and ran — and then I heard a snap — and Cero screetched — and there ' s nothing left for me to do but join him. As for you. Diary, I ' ll leave you lying beside the trap. Betty, too, had found a diary — secreted by a fountain pen! ' DEAR DIARY: February 24, 1931 It ' s such a pleasure to pour forth my pent-up emotions in my own fashion and not have to trace Joan ' s backhand. I ' ll like, too, writing all the fine v ords I ' ve learned that Joan underlined in her text books. Just tonight she underlined pusillanimity and wrinkled her nose over it, but for all that I ' ll be the only one to use it. 1 got the diary idea from Joan, but I shan ' t write all the slush she does! All the ' he said ' s ' and ' 1 said ' s ' will be too much for me one of these nights, my ink will simply turn to water. (Feb. 5) Joan left me stuck in a huge history book tonight. She thought I ' d finish it for her, but not me — Buell bores me to blots. I ' d rather write notes to the new desk pen, Mr. Swivel-holder. That fat pencil-plus-pen female has been nodding her point at him. (Feb. 6) Mr. Swivel-holder and 1 spent the morning passing notes. 1 was so afraid 1 ' d go dry and 1 couldn ' t very well ask him for a drink of his ink. Scarcely ladylike. For- tunately I had enough, but I ' m writing on bubbles now, so 1 must wait till Joan fills me again. Good-night!
