Once upon a ‘time there came to P. C. a little golden-haired girl, whose blue eyes were opened wide with wonder and expectation of what that mysterious thing called “college life” held in store for her. Soon, however, those same blue eyes were dimmed with tears, for homesickness had overwhelmed the little maid. But after a short time her natural faculty of adapting herself to any circumstance, helped her to become reconciled and contented under the many trials and tribula- tions of that “college life,” concerning which she had now become disillusioned. Her name, for some curious reason, was “Shorty,” but no name could have been more inappropriate, for in all the succeeding four years of life, this dear little maiden did not fall short in manifesting the qualities that belong to a girl of an enthusiastic and amiable disposition. The star under which Shorty was born, was a very lucky one, for no matter how things turned, Shorty always appeared uppermost, with serene and smiling countenance, winning the good-will and trust of all the girls. Is it any wonder, then, that in her Senior year, she should be the best loved and most popular girl in school? Nowhere could one find a com- panion more pleasing or a friend more loyally true. 12 V Ida Moore Alexander Charlotte, N. C. “The Mirror of all courtesy.” Pierian Society. One evening at dusk, tones of indescrib- able loveliness were heard, pure and sonor- ous. The ringing of the semi-hourly bells was stopped; all passing to and fro was stayed; many held their breath, and ru- mors were spread that Cecilia herself was touching the organ keys. But upon investigation it was found that this little maid, Ida Moore, was pouring her feelings into the pipes of the pride of the college—the organ. Since that day Ida Moore has continued to send like vibrations through the souls of the dwellers at P. C. Now she leaves us, and with her go all good wishes that her life may ever be filled with onlv sweetest music. Iva Lee Bennett, B L. Rock Hill, S.

She soon became one of the college favorites— a friend to everybody and an enemy to none. Iva is a dear, lovable girl, who numbers her “cases” by the dozen. “With your sweet eyes and low replies, a great enchantress you may be.” • % 13 Louise DuBose Blakeney, A.

C. in 1906, and here she has been “starring” ever since. She was the tiniest and liveliest of all the wee freshman maids then, and even now she is almost too small for her cap and gown and “Senior privileges.” Her ambitions are many and various, but the two chief ones are: either to afflict the ignorant Chinese as a mission- ary, or to torment poor American children, as a Latin teacher. We only hope that wherever she goes biscuits will be plentiful, as these are her necessary “brain-food.” To her friends at home she is “Webie; some admirers here call her “Leza;” but to those who love her best she is simply “Louise.” Helen Evans Brackett, B.

In September of the year M)7, a wise little maid came with halting footsteps across the campus and up the steps to the door of the Presbyterian College for Women. As she entered the portal of this institution of learning, she felt that her troubles were beginning; and so they were. She went through the regular routine of discourage- ment, homesickness and weeping, after which she settled down to hard work. This damsel at first was called Helen; but that was because she was a stranger. When she became well-known, she was named “Brack” and has been so called ever since. At present she is our most dignified Senior; but in spite of her dignity —or shall we say because of it?—she is much beloved. “ Brack” is a loyal daugh- ter of P. C-, but her thoughts ever turn affectionately to dear old Clemson. 14 Anna Meta Buchanan, A B Laurinburg, N. C. “Faithful, gentle, and good, Wearing the rose of womanhood.” Pierian Society. This little lady first went to Peace, but finding there was nothing in the name, decided to come to P. C. Here she has distinguished herself as a vocalist. It is wonderful what a charm her voice has for some of the medical students. She is bright, cheerful and merry. She smiles all day in spite of her Trig., and does not even frown over Logic and English. Louise Flournoy, A. B. ( T-T APU TTP N. C. ora her soul.” an Literary Society. „ ears ago, Louise came from C. H. . to continue her search for knowledge at P. C. She soon learned that with knowledge comes sorrow, and she has not forgotten it yet. Nevertheless, she has pursued the quest faithfully, and her name has always held a high place on the Honor Poll. Her most striking characteristic is her love of arguing, which is not invariably appreciated. Martha Watkins Flournoy, A B. Charlotte, N.

Having spent ten years of her life in preparation, Martha entered the Sopho- more class of old P. C. in September, '07. In that year she won both athletic and academic honors. W hen called upon to elect her course, she chose Mathematics and Latin, both of which are in general disfavor at P. C. In her Junior year she carried off the first honor; in her Senior year, she was chosen class poet and literary editor of the annual. Now, as we come to the parting of our ways, our best wish for her is that she may be as successful in the future as she has been in the past. Lula Jay Harris, B L Charlotte, N. C. I know you have a gentle, noble temper, a soul as even as a calm.” Member Gamma Sigma Society; Class Monitress, ’OT-’OS; Secretary Gamma Sigma Society; Marshal, ’08-’09; Class Monitress, ’09-’l(). As a country grieves over the loss of its landmarks, so P. C. mourns the passing of Lula-Jay. Nuje years ago she began the strenuous days of P. C. life. She came, a little girl with bobbed hair and short skirts; now she is “grown up” and tall and stately. Long tried, she has been found true. She is capable, has a merry disposi- tion and is loved by all. Her going forth will leave a vacant place in the hearts of those she leaves behind. Florence Jamison, A B Charlotte, N.

Her sweet disposition makes her beloved by all who know her; she has been voted the neatest girl in school, and since coming here, she has not only drunk deeply of the spring of knowledge, but also distinguished herself as an artist of rare talent. She has showed her ability to study, and in her Senior year she has proved herself a girl of great business capacity by her faithful work as Business Manager of the Edelweiss. Cora Jordan Derita, N. C. “ller look composed and steady eye Hespoke a matchless constancy.” Pierian Literary Society. The old theory that only cities can pro- duce great geniuses has been disproved by this case of one of our Senior pianists, who was born and bred in the country. She has been at P. C. three years, and in this time has become fitted into the regular routine of practise and study, so that in future years when the noise of pianos and organs no longer greets her ears and she cannot go up street twice a week, we fear she will be bored by the quiet country life. But no doubt her future career as a singing- school teacher will furnish variety enough! 17 2 r Louise Lutterloh t • .

C. maidens she-has found , her victims. ; Tis whispered that her name has been mentioned by her Instructor as that of a “star pianist;” and we are all waiting in breathless suspense to see if in the future she will grace the stage, as an accompanist to Nordica for instance; or instruct guileless musical innocents in “the way they should not go;” or return to Florida to adorn the humble home of her faithful suitor.

C. four years ago as a Freshman, and such a quiet little Freshman that at first no one knew just how wonderful she really was. She first came before the notice of all, when she won renown in the intercollegiate basket ball game that fall. Ever since that red-letter day she has captured not only all the honors in athletics and in scholarships, but first place in the heart of all the P. C. maidens. Numerous “satellites ” hover around her, but better still, she has won the sincerest and most lasting friendship of all her companions. In her Senior year, she has been voted unanimously, the most influential, the best all-round, and the most sincere girl in college. 18 “Elaine, the fair, Elaine the lovable, Elaine, the lily-maid of Astolat.” Editor-in-Chief of Annual, ’10; Vice-President Gam- ma Sigma Society, '09; Treasurer Gamma Sigma Society, TO; Y.

Where she was born, it matters not; where she will die, it is yet to be determined ; but she has lived, has moved among us; has inspired us by her example; has soothed us by her quiet, restful presence, and has drawn us under her gentle sway. Although her lofty brow bespeaks her giant intellect; though from the long, long, list of honor-rolls, from the first grade to her fair Senior year, her name has never been missing; though the musty books record her wonderful achievements, she is sincerely unconcious of her greatness, and withal is modest and unassuming. • No swirls, no eddies, no loitering obstructs the journey of this lily-maid, as she passes down the river, not of Usk, but of Life. Quietly, evenly and placidly, she floats by us and we smile after her as we say: “E’en her failings leaned to Maud McKinnon, A B , 1 0 II N Charlotte, N.

Behold our musician! when she plays, a magic spell is cast over us and we are held mute to the last note. In our eyes she is Paderewski’s only rival, and we feel sure that in the course of time we shall hear of Louise as an unsurpassed musician. Besides all her musical talent, she herself is charming and we vote her one of our daintiest and most attractive girls. Mary Julia Reid Enoree, S. C. “Ask why God made the gem so small, And why so large the granite! Because God meant mankind should set The higher value on it.” Pierian Literary Society. Mary Julia joined us in the beginning of our Senior year, and we soon found that a musician had come among us. Though this little lady is the smallest member of our class, she is far from the smallest in the estimation of her classmates. She has proved such an addition to our number that we can only wish she had been with us all through our course. May she be a great musician and bring honor on herself, P. C., and the Class of TO.

Three years ago, Marie entered Presby- terian as a Freshman, who, together with all other insignificant Fresh, the conceited Sophomores treated with disdain. It was soon discovered that generalization was unjust, for Marie was certainly an exceptional Fresh. G1 presented too narrow a scope for her brilliancy, so in the fall of J08, she entered with GO into the mysteries of the Junior class. She immediately won the hearts of all, and has held them fast ever since. She is our songster, and the pleasure which her voice has given to all will be long remembered after she has left the walls of P. C., and has gone out into the world. We are confident that her career has not yet begun, but that her fame will be widespread, surpassing that of Shu- mann-Heinck and Melba. Marie Torrence, S 1 20 Senior Class IHistor? It was a bright fall day of 1900 that the members of our class first entered these P. C. walls. AVe were quite a goodly number then; but as time lias gone on, many have dropped out of their own accord, while others have been forced to give up the journey, even when the end was in view. We came in the full dignity of our various high school graduations, feeling our importance no little, and thinking that we should soon be sighing for more worlds to conquer. AYe go away with full realization that there are worlds, many numbered, and that our mightiest efforts have conquered only a few of them. In many ways we have been a class quite out of the ordinary. AYe have already gone into history as the class that, thinking to preserve P. C. forestry, planted a tree, and thereby caused a battle that P. C. will not soon forget. The cause of this battle was the general dissenting spirit between us Sophomores and our sister Juniors; the occasion was that the Juniors uprooted our innocent little tree; the result was that we got our rights, but not our tree, for, though the Juniors planted it again for us, it did not thrive in this climate and some kind hand gently removed it from P. 0. But, nevertheless, we have a tree, for in May of our Junior year we had a May Day celebration and our queen of the May presented us with a tree which we adopted and which we leave behind as our living witness. In our Junior year we presented the college with a song. AYlien P. C. comes home victorious from basket ball singing “Alma Mater, dear P. C.,” it is good to think that this song was written by a member of the Class of 1910. As well as originating for ourselves, we know a good thing when we see it, and such did we see in the Senior class pin of 1909. AAre therefore made this pin ours and that of succeeding P. C. seniors. The thing of which we are most proud and which we feel is of most benefit to ourselves and others is our instituting, to a certain extent, self-government. AYe have had delightful social times. In our Sophomore year we entertained the Seniors at a banquet. In our Junior year, we as Mr. Taft and his Cabinet, entertained our wives, the Seniors. This year we were guests at a banquet given by the Juniors. Concerning our intellectual attainments, it were best that you ask our teachers. In Church History we have worked hard and have looked up enough men for a small army. In Ethics, though we know that “Doc’r” Dabney must think clearly, for we have been repeatedly told so, we find it very hard to get the point. If you would but listen, we could entertain you with Latin odes, history themes and original sonatas. But with all this we can but come before the vast hill of knowledge with veiled faces and in awed humility, repeat the lesson we learned in English, “AYe know nothing.” 22 F. J.—’10.

M. 23 Cast X ill an6 (testament of tl)e (Tlass of 1910 State of North Carolina, Mecklenburg County, City of Charlotte, Presbyterian College for Women, May 9, 1910. We, the Class of 1910, of the aforesaid State, county and college, having risen at last to the long-dreamed-of heights of Seniorhood; having dutifully memorized our way through Math and Psych; having struggled with essays great and essays small; having obediently looked after the well-being and behavior of our respective “companies;” having borne our full share of faculty clippings; having discovered at last how to extract excuses from the Dean, are as far as possible after these trials and tribulations, of sound mind. Therefore, we do make, ordain and declare this to be our last will and testament. First: Our executrix, Lily W. Long, shall hereafter forever keep fresh in the minds and hearts of all who may come after us, the full list of our virtues, with such amendments and additions as said executrix may see fit to make, for the sole pur- pose of increasing the well-deserved fame of the Class of 1910. Second: We do hereby give, bequeath and devise unto all the envious under- classmen our store of year’s clippings—Administration Committee ones a specialty! Third: We do also bequeath and devise ten electric fans for “Uncle Jimmy’s” office with a view to giving the aforesaid “Uncle Jimmy” some faint conception of the breezes that blow in winter time through the upper stories of this all too well- ventilated building. Fourth: All the cross marks on our brilliant English papers we do leave and bequeath to our fellow-sufferers, the Junior Class. Fifth: The four much-worn Harkness’s Grammars found in the jiossession of the Senior Latin Class we do give and bequeath unto Mary Johnston, to he used by the aforesaid young lady only six times per week under the surveillance of F. J. Gordon. Sixth: All our meagre supply of 90’s we do bequeath and devise unto the Freshman Class, who seem to he in dire need of such a commodity at examination time. Seventh : The hard-fought for Annual Ads we do give and bequeath unto the 1911 Staff. Eighth: All the middy blouses we have been able to collect from the Preps we do give and bequeath unto those maidens who arise at the ringing of the breakfast bell, to be used by aforesaid maidens for the purpose of saving “breakfast dimes.” Ninth: The rubber heels adorning M. McKinnon’s shoes we do bequeath and devise unto ATiss Dargan, with a view to aiding the aforesaid lady in her desire to become like “Lady Jane.” Tenth : The haughty air of M. Query we do leave and bequeath unto P. Smith, to aid in establishing her reputation as “The Conceited One.” Eleventh: We do give, bequeath and devise ten yards of new ribbon (not black) to C. Easley, to aid in the total concealment of the aforesaid maiden’s left h 24 ear, believing, in spite of minors to the contrary, that said left ear really does exist, although it hath never been seen by any responsible witness. Twelfth: The worthy dignity of our class, represented in the sole person of H. Brackett, we do store away with our caps and gowns, to be sold in connection with them for the reasonable sum of $10.00. All aspiring Juniors will please pur- chase at once! Thirteenth: The subdued tones issuing forth form Miss Patterson’s class- room at various and sundry, times between 9 A. M. and 2 P. M. we do bequeath and devise unto Miss Stevens, to be presented to said Miss Stevens on the day she leaves the P. C. walls forever. Fourteenth: The infantile voice of M. J. Reid we do give and bequeath unto Idella Mayes, who was bereaved of her own rather early in life. Fifteenth: The eye trouble of some of our members we do leave and bequeath unto E. Nuttall, as a substitute for said E. NuttalPs usual Monday morning in- firmary ailments. Sixteenth: I nto the “fathers who have heretofore called up their “daughters” and have been unwise enough to give the Medical (Allege telephone number, we do leave and bequeath all the 'phone permissions of the year, with the injunction that they use said permissions with more happy results next year. Seventeenth : The sarcastic expressions attributed to L. Blakeney we do leave and bequeath unto the faculty to add to their already worthy collection. Eighteenth: The scholarly gleam of M. McKinnon’s expansive forehead we do bequeath and devise unto Miss Gordon as a worthy addition to the “brow of greatness'’ already adorning the aforesaid Miss Gordon. Nineteenth: The Senior gown of L. J. Harris we do bequeath and devise unto M. Miller, upon condition that said gown have five two-inch tucks taken just above the hem, with more to be added whenever the diminishing stature of aforesaid M. Miller shall make it necessary. Twentieth: The unusual ear for metre lately discovered in Sue McKeown's list of accomplishments we do give and bequeath unto Rena Harrell, who bids fair to rival Milton, if conscious greatness be one of the marks of genius. Twenty-first: The incessant giggling of L. Flournoy we do bequeath and devise unto Orelia Howard, who seems in need of such recreation occasionally. Twenty-second: Samples of the natural coloring of M. Wharton we do give, bequeath and devise unto Miss Lily W. Long, to be handed out to any desiring such adornment by said Dean at the first chapel exercises of next year, thereby preventing any unexpected discarding of powder and paint. Tn Witness Whereof, this will has been drawn by me with the full consent of the .Class of 1910. LOUISE BLAKENEY. • i i (Tlass jpropfyecy HERE is a story in Scandinavian mythology of Igdrasyl, the tree of life. Its roots are in Hela, the realm of death; and its branches extend throughout the universe. Watering its roots from the sacred well are three Fates—the Past, the Present and the Future. Its boughs are histories of nations; its leaves are biographies of lives. It was of this tree that I dreamed one night. I thought I sat under its spreading branches and listened to the rustling of the leaves as they were swayed by gentle breezes. Suddenly a great blast shook the tree to its very roots, and the leaves began to fall around me. One brown, withered leaf dropped upon a book which 1 was holding, and out of curiosity T idly turned it over. At length my attention was attracted by a mark so indistinct that I could not decipher it. Thinking that perhaps the lines would be clearer on a fresh green leaf, I picked up one and found that on it were traced a name and a few words, telling something of the future of the person mentioned. Straightway I thought of my classmates, and, after a long and tedious search, 1 found seventeen green leaves containing their names. On the first were the words “Margaret W harton, “Greensboro, “Society ’ and “Ophelia.” For a time I sat bewildered, but the truth gradually dawned upon me. Margaret, after a few seasons as Greensboro’s society belle, is to play the role of “Ophelia in Shakespeare’s great tragedy, Hamlet. And indeed a perfect “Ophelia she shall be, with her lovely golden locks and sweet, melodious voice. I was so much interested in this that I carefully and laboriously examined the other sixteen leaves, and after much arduous thought I reached the following conclusions as to their meaning: Helen Brackett at present expects to live with her parents at Clemson College (for several years at least), but so the Fates have not decreed. Very soon she is to go to Arizona to visit relatives. There she shall live the care-free life of the Western girls. Finally she shall fall in love with a cowboy; the wedding day shall be set and all things shall be ready. But here again the Fates are against her. In an attempt to rescue a child, her lover shall be killed. Helen can never recover from this blow, and the rest of her life shall be spent in a convent. Cora Jordan’s plans for the future shall be materialized, for, although she may not express her desires, we know that it is the dream of her life to marry and “live happy ever after.” Louise Lutterloli lias been preparing for her life-work since she entered college, and for years to come she shall make an efficient music teacher. Our graduate in voice shall star in one of the leading grand opera companies of America, and the theatres in all parts of the country shall be crowded when posters announce that Mademoiselle Torrence is to sing. Tn 1915 Sue McKcown shall go to South America and take up her work in a mission school. Sue shall have many strange adventures in her new home, and in a few years she shall publish a very entertaining novel, A Brazilian Maid. This being a true story of a part of the writer’s life, shall tell of the fortunes , or rather the misfortunes, of a South American man who woos a girl from the United States. Florence Jamison shall, as the years roll by, endear herself to the youth of Charlotte. Her name shall become the proverbial standard of excellence for the modern teacher. Anna Meta Buchanan shall enter a Philadelphia hospital and become a very capable trained nurse. As she moves in and out among the sick, her gentle touch and kindly word shall soothe pains and revive sinking spirits. In a few years, when posters and handbills are extensively advertising meetings to discuss the question Shall Women Vote?” the most sought after speaker shall be the distinguished L. J. Harris, renowned for her eloquence and effectiveness. Ida Moore Alexander shall return to P. C. and accept a position as teacher of music. She shall take the place of Miss Stevens, who is to open an “Ideal Training School for Dignified Young Ladies.” Martha and Louise Flournoy shall in the future, as in the past, follow parallel paths and continually vie with each other in the pursuit of learning. Their greed for knowledge shall neither wax nor wane, and when they reach middle life they shall give to the public a valuable book entitled Salires and How to Write Them. it seems that Cupid has been at work among the members of our class. But, although May Julia Reid's heart has been pierced by his darts several times during her school days, it was never fatally wounded, and she shall continue to live in “single blessedness.” After reading this unexpected prediction, I was lost for a few moments in thoughts of the future. Presently T turned to the leaves in my hand. The next one.was Iva Bennett’s, and on it were the words: “Under the blossoming cherry trees, In the far oft isle of Sun-Rise Land, The little black-eyed Japanese Cling to the skirts and caress the hand Of a winsome maid of old P. CVs, W ho heeded the words of her King’s command. In the years to come Louise Parks shall entertain her suitors (and they shall be many) with entrancing music. At length one youth’s heart shall be captivated ■ 27 by the charming musician, and she shall promise to make a home bright and happy for him. All that 1 could learn about Mary Query, our Senior Special, was that she is to return to P. C. next year and take her diploma. Wonder of wonders, she shall star in Latin. Perhaps by May, 1911, her leaf on the tree of life shall foretell wonderful events. Louise Blakeney shall live a repetition, in part, of the story of the Lady of the Decoration. The scene shall be laid, however, not in Japan, but in China. After winning the hearts of the little Chinese children by her attractive and lovable ways, she shall one day be summoned to the wharf to greet a new missionary, and that missionary shall be---------Jack. As for Maud McKinnon, the inscription on her leaf was so dim I could hardly read it, but 1 think it was “Old maid school teacher. M. McK.—TO.

And whan at last was read the honor roll. More Sophomores than oth’rs had won the goal. Befel that in the third yeer of hir course, M.

In the attempt to make the best of everything we shall try to do away with such beliefs. Even if there remains for awhile a lurking fear in our minds of the thirteen stability, we shall work until the last to show that its influence is-merely superstition. Although we are now in the class which has excited, and continues to excite the pity of the faculty in all colleges, yet we are not sorry, for when next term comes, how glad we shall be that we were Freshmen now instead of then, and so, filled with the new Sophomore spirit, we shall march on in peace. In the fall, after all classes had been arranged, attention was called to the importance of immediately electing our officers and of organizing a basket ball team. A meeting was called and the officers chosen were: Elizabeth Long, presi- dent; May Beverly Alexander, vice-president; Ruth Blankenship, captain of the basket ball team; Susie Cowles, class poet; and Ruth Rainey, historian. Soon after this meeting arrangements were made for our team to play against the Salisbury High School team. For several weeks our players practiced faithfully, and then one Saturday the game was played. During the first half of the game it would have been difficult to have said which side was going to win, but in the last half the Freshmen steadily increased their score to seventeen, while the other team allowed theirs to remain nine. This victory caused great joy among our (‘lass, and, as it was our first game and the first match game in the college this year, its result was especially beneficial in giving a bright outlook to whatever we might contemplate for the future. It would be very difficult to tell just what our class is now, what it intends to be in a few years, and the work of each member; but this we hope—that we shall be able to remain together, not only until this year closes, but until we shall have enjoyed a vear as Seniors.

Captain Randolph drew himself up coldly, “I shake hands with my friends, but with—77 “Then I was right in thinking that only the ones fond of you kissed you.77 But Miss Patty’s mischievous laugh was cut short by the confused noise of horses’ hoofs and men’s voices coming from the garden. Then Mammy Chloe’s protesting voice rose above the mingled sounds. “No! Miss Patty don7 ’cieve no trifflin7 Yankee soldier company, I tells yo7, and yo7 can’t stop lieah. Hi! you scoundrel, tek7 dat foot down often dat step! The voices now became indistinguishable to the startled occupants of the parlor. “Patty,77 began Captain Randolph coolly, taking Patty’s little hands within his own, “it's all up with me now; those Yanks are after me. They know 1 am a spy, and 1 can only give ’em a hot fight. Leave the room, dear!” And so saying the officer drew his pistol. But Patty, quick-witted in spite of her fright, bethought her of the wide, old-fashioned fireplace with its double ledges high up in the chi m nev. “Quick, Ranny, up the chimney! They'll never find you there, Ranny,” as he hesitated, “if you love me”— To the appeal in her eyes Captain Randolph sur- rendered and scrambled up the huge soot-covered chimney to stand black and grim on a narrow row of projecting bricks, while Miss Patty, with magnificent self- control, turned to the door to see Mammy Chloe slowly and angrily retreating before the Union soldiers, who regarded with amused curiosity Mammy’s flashing eyes and berating tongue. On seeing Patty, however, the soldiers paused and the officer involuntarily raised his cap. “Your pardon, Madam. Necessity forces me to intrude. We have orders to capture Randolph Grey, captain in the rebel army, who, we have reason to believe, is in the vicinity. Have you seen him?” “Yes, several times in my life.” Patty was very pink, but very cool. “Madam, answer my question. Have you seen Captain Grey to-day?” Patty tossed her head. “Suppose I don’t answer your question, sir?” “Huh! Mammy Chloe was close upon the officer’s heels. “No, we ain’t seed Marse Rannv! Yo7 links Ps skeered to lie! Aunt Chloe meant well with all her soul. With a grim smile, however, the officer turned to his men. “Guard the house!” he commanded. As Patty stepped back from the door, he entered the parlor with three soldiers, two of whom he detailed to search the house, while with the other he began a low conversation, taking care first, however, to order dinner for his company. Out in the dining room the voice of Mammy Chloe could be heard every now and then loudly and indignantly denouncing “dem Yankees,” but presently the sounds grew low, and if the officer had opened the door, he would have seen Mammy 46 4 41 •£« ' i iC Ur ((- VLv.

When Patty entered the parlor again, the officer was alone, writing. Madam ’ he began, without looking up, “where is your mother?” That happens to be of very little importance to you, sir,” she haughtily replied. Pardon me, but I don’t think your mother should leave a pretty girl like you alone in such times as these, and he gazed intently at the girl. “My mother can think for herself, if you please!” Just at this moment sounds of turmoil came from the direction of the kitchen, and Mammy’s voice was heard distinctly from the back yard: “Ain’t I done gib him what he wuz wo’th! Hit dat dough-headed, meddlin’ Yankee on de top oh his knob wid de rollin’ pin! Jist lak’ I do beat biscuits!” And Mammy’s laughter came long and loud. “Your servant evidently uses strenuous measures with my men,” said the officer as he arose and moved about the room. His quick eyes took in every thing. “What’s wrong with that chimney?” He stopped, noticing particles of falling soot that floated downward. “Why, the swallows”—began the startled Patty, when again Mammy’s voice drifted in, this time from the back porch. “What dat yo’ say, Mary Jane? Is Marse Panny outer dis country yit ? Wall, chile, ’fore 1 gits fru givin’ dese scroundrel dey dinner, Marse Panny, lie’ll be ’cross de Susquehanna. 1’s sho foolin’ dem Yanks out oh dey senses. Marse Panny done rid ’way from heah lak’ de wind more dan onct.” The real consternation that had showed in Patty’s face at first now rose to a well-feigned climax as Mammy’s words fell on the officer’s ears, and as she dropped into a chair with an effective exclamation, she turned to hide a smile, for the officer almost immediately sent a stentorian call through the halls: “To saddle, boys! The bird has flown!” As the soldiers mounted their horses a few minutes later, the portly form of Mammy Chloe loomed up in the door-way, and with a wink at Miss Patty, who stood demurely in the hall, she called in an injured voice: “Yo’ gentlemans ain’t gwine ’way widout eatin’ my good dinner what is most ready, is yo “Never mind, auntie,” the officer answered with an exultant laugh, “you’ve given us just what we wanted by your generous loquacity.” “Dey sho’ is welcome to Mammy Ohloe’s gen’ous low-gass pity, ain’t dey, Miss Patty?” drawled Mammy to Patty. “I showly is mighty obliged to dey’s gene’ous lack ob gumption, myself,” and Mammy, with arms akimbo, chuckled quietly to herself as she watched the last blue-coat disappear in the distance. At twilight in the parlor of Miss Patty’s home, Captain Panny was saying “good-bye” again. “No, Panny, 1 told you that 1 don’t kiss every soldier boy that goes to war,” said Miss Patty airily. Perhaps not, dear, but you have kissed one particular soldier boy to-day.” Panny! Of course, I haven’t—how dare you!” “You little mischief! There are the proofs in two tiny soot marks on your cheek!” But when Captain Panny left that evening for General Lee’s headquarters, there were more than two tell-tale soot marks on Miss Patty Weston’s face, and perhaps there were tell-tale tear marks on Captain Randolph Grey’s faded uniform coat.

The reason for this is that all the members, and especially the two presidents, worked with untiring zeal, and their efforts did not prove fruitless. The year opened with an initiation, which was greatly enjoyed by the old members and exceedingly well borne by the new ones. Many new girls “took the advice” and were heartily welcomed into the Society. One teacher, who was a loyal sister in her college days, was again joyfully received into our midst. Our officers this year were elected semi-annually, and both sets of officers performed their duties faithfully, putting their whole hearts and minds into the upbuilding of the Society and to the creating among the girls of stronger and more lasting friendships. Our meetings have been eagerly anticipated. We have studied the lives and works of some of the best-known American authors, such as Emerson, Longfellow, Poe and Lanier. For our meeting on Mark Twain we were so fortunate as to receive his autograph on his own stationery. One of this year's special additions is the “Qui Vive.” In it the poetical genius of the Society is shown by the putting of the jokes of the college into poetry. These sparkling verses have proved a delightful conclusion to each program. The meeting, of which the faculty mem- bers of the Society took charge, was one of the most enjoyable of the year. Our hall is as inviting as ever, and the members always look forward to the hours when they can rest and enjoy themselves in one of its cozy corners, in the midst of interesting books and magazines. We are loath to see our beloved Seniors leave us, but the interest and care that they have shown for the Society in their college life proves to us that wherever they may go, they will still be true Gamma Sigmas. Although we are proud of the progress the Society has made in the past, we realize that to he content with that which we have already accomplished is not for our gain. Thus we shall ever strive for that which is royal and pure, as represented by the Purple and the White. “The desire of 11 it� moth for Hit star, Of the night for the morrow, The devotion to something afar From the sphere of our sorrow.

My companions, the stars, are shining with such soft, such luminous brilliancy that they seem almost to touch the earth. Perhaps because I am so aged, and am really nearer to the stars than to my fellow-mortals, perhaps through long observation, or yet, perhaps, on account of love, each star seems possessed of human traits and characteristics, and each, like the planets to have its own group of satellites, though these are invisible to most observers. In the center of the heavens, or rather of my heaven, are three great planets, to whom all the rest look for guidance. These are called, in accordance with their dispositions, Faith, Hope and Charity. Charity, for the greatest of these is Charity, is Queen, even among The Three. She beams with lily-like purity on all equally, and although no satellites openly follow, all worship her secretly. Hope shines with such silvery-grey luster that, from her likeness to the moon, she is sometimes called Luna, incorrectly pronounced Lula. Hope scorns all satellites, but everyone looks to her for practical advice and strength. The smallest in size, but some say, the most brilliant, is Faith. Far from feeling awe, a great band of satellites dock around her; so close do they crowd that she seems to gather them all in her strong arms, while she smiles lovingly upon them. Among the stars of first magnitude is the Beautiful Lady. Only those who are beautiful, witty, or attractive dare join her company of satellites, but many, many others worship from afar. No one has ever really approached the inner shrine, to no one has the Beautiful Lady revealed her true self, save to one daring maiden, whose name symbolizes Beauty. Then there is The Star o’ the Pansy Face, a shy, reserved little star, who has a host of little pages as her followers. The leading spirit among these is a frisky, incorrigible little sprite, more like a wild March wind than a gentle May breeze, as her name implies. Another star, from whom all other stars caught the habit of twinkling,” as mortals say, but which is really drowsy nodding and blinking, has a great host of satellites. Although a lively little star, she, too, is very shy, and as soon as any satellites approach, flees and palters on and on, until she finds a nice, comfortable nook for a nap. 114 The next largest band follows a gav, adorable star, with a golden halo, who, in spite of her noisy band, which scampers to and fro like a riTshing, mighty wind, spends most of her time listening to the music of the spheres. This system is a very complicated and intricate affair. Some stars worship their fellow stars : in fact, three decided instances have been noted. Then, it is a common occurrence for the elder or senior satellites to have their own band of followers, which, truly, sometimes outnumbers that of the Star. There are, of course, some who stand off and openly scoff at the whole system (that is, until they are drawn under the irresistible spell of some Star, or become old and wise enough to have a band of their own), but most are wise enough to see that the satellites absorb the virtues of their Stars, and the Stars, in turn, brought into touch with a lower creation, develop a clearer, deeper understanding, unless, indeed, the satellites are permitted to approach too near, and thus obscure the glory of the Star. There was another Star, the purest, the brightest, the most beautiful of all. But she has been transferred to another place in the heavens, and now sheds her brilliant, almost heavenly beams, upon a far-distant land, on the other side of the world.

Senior Class Team Sophomore Class Team Junior Class Team • Only in the last few years has there been any enthusiasm in the college for athletics. Now that the girls have at last become interested, the basket-ball field, the tennis courts and the gymnasium are no longer deserted. Each class has her basket-ball, her tennis and her track teams to fight her battles in the tournaments for the banner that the Association has offered to the class winning the most points. Bach class is determined to win, and many and hard are the struggles that have been in the fall and that are to corne in the spring. Basket-ball, until last year, seemed to be the all-absorbing game, but then tire girls began to wake up to the fact that there are other athletic sports, and this year the Association has made tennis and track work as important as basket-ball in the race for the athletic banner. But, in spite of the arrangement of the Association, when it comes to athletics in connection with other colleges, all eyes turn toward the Varsity Basket-Ball team and incidentally toward the Freshman team, who won the first victory over another school for P. C. Basket-ball now is played by little and big, from the primary de- partment to the Senior class, and material for the Varsity team will not he lacking for some years to come. Since our first defeat, the year we played Elizabeth College,- we have not been able to get an opportunity to show the improvement of our team until this year. Last year a game was arranged with Winston-Salem, but they were unable to come down on account of several misfortunes. This year we played a game with Chicora College at Greenville, South Carolina. Great was the joy at home when the college learned of our victory. No games as yet have been arranged for the spring, but plans are being talked over, and it is hoped that the Varsity will have another chance to cause rejoicing at P. C. 127 m mm ■ — ■ y. W. C.

The parlors and halls were gaily decorated in red and white, the traditional Valentine colors. Garlands of roses and dainty hearts and cupids adorned the walls, and myriads of crimson lights cast a soft glow over the enchanting scene. A bewitching maid, as Queen of Hearts, filled glasses for the company at the magic spring of love. The guests ranged from the fair white Lily to Sunny Jim, casting radiant smiles upon all around. Many historical characters of interest were present, among them Lady Jane Grey, Queen Elizabeth, Queen Isabella and Henry VIII. At- tending these royal personages was a single page. Mary Queen of Scots was accompanied by one of her favorites, a member of the Gordon clan of the Highlands. Hand in hand, Alice in Wonderland and Lovey Mary moved among the guests, delighting everyone with their charming ways. Other especially clever masqueraders were Sweet Adeline, Marjorie Daw, a frisky little wood nymph from Mount Ida, Tildy, the Mennonite Maid, St. Cath- arine, and Ethel Koosevelt. Mary, Mary Quite Contrary was more than usually obstinate, for she insisted upon taking her one Forget-Me-Not with her constantly and refused to let others enjoy the little blossom. As the old clock chimed the hour of 12, the Katydid chirped and the fair Lily arose. The others, considering this a signal for departure, reluctantly bade one another farewell and took their leave, voting the event a great success. M. McK. The trig bell tolls the knell of parting peace; The mournful girls wind slowly down the stair; The chattering of their teeth doth e'er increase And on each face there sits a dark despair. L.

Miss Dargan, Pond’ring which was of all her classes fit To reign and wage immortal war with wit, Cried,11 ’Tis resolved! for Nature pleads that she Should only rule who least resembles me. The Junior alone my perfect contrast bears, Mature in dullness from her tender years, The Junior alone of all my school is she Who stands confirmed in full stupidity. The rest to some faint meaning make pretence, But Juniors never deviate into sense. Some beams of wit on other classes fall, Strike through and make a lucid interval; But Juniors’ genuine night admits no ray; Their rising fogs prevail upon the day. M. W.F., ’10.
