The martial blare of trumpets the sweetness of the violin and the softer notes of the cello were blended together into one delightful symphony. Yes, a symphony of memories through which the voices of yesterday were heard in all their old time sweetness.

We, Jane Boyd, Helen Lynn, Dorothy Howe, Edith Larson and Elizabeth Jones do will and bequeath to Vivian Calhoun, Jerry Walter and Esther Trenkle our right to chaperone the Juniors and make numerous visits to the Dean ' s Office. 13. We, the inmates of 92 do will our front room and observation porch to the Romeo and Juliets who need them most. 52 THE SEQUELLE 1926 We. the other important members of the Class of 1926 leave to the on- coming classes our best wishes that they may follow in our foot-steps, and thus make a name for themselves, and for dear old C.

Up the ladder of struggle and strife Through the toils of a Normal school life Triumphant you stand on the threshold of fame. Honored and gloried with a Senior ' s Name. Sons and daughters of Clarion acclaim Hope for the future, and prospects of fame. VOLUME I Uniqueness The uniqueness of this Senior Class was an accident. No one planned it. No famous agitator or Class member ever arose and said: Fellow Clasmates, we must make this Class unique! The Senior Class produced famous debators, dancers, and class cutters, while our Basketball teams were known on several occasions to make a basket. But the unusualness of the Senior Class com; about without any preconceived plan. In the year 1924 A. D., the Misses Lourietta Heckendorn and Martha Wilson attended the Masquerade Ball in in unique costume as Gold Dust Twins. ' These two repre- sentatives of the Senior Class were contemplating adding distinction to their class carrying off first prize. Their costumes which consisted mainly of contemplative imagination were exceedingly unique. They were received with great jubilation. During the same century our illustrious Class further distin- guished itself by demonstration of phjsical prowess: Art Altman, The Herculean Giant, in a soap-bubble contest with Don Campbell, The Terrible, blew a soap-bubble as big as a baseball. Alas and Alas! this tremendous physical strain necessitated the Herculean Giant ' s being placed under a doctor ' s care. Could Mortal man do better For the honor of his country And the glory of his Classi VOLUME II How the Class of ' 26 met the Class of ' 25. Former classes had been proud of the deference which charac- terized the attitude of the Juniors toward the Seniors, but the Class of ' 25 resented the traditional superiority of the Upper Class. They even outraged the customs of ages by holding a Junior Class Meeting during Senior week. This rash act was productive of disastrous results. 1926 THE SEQUELLE 55 After the unfortunate meeting the Upper Class felt a natural antagonism toward the Class of ' 26. Such an affront could not be tolerated or taken lightly. Juniors had always been pun- ished when they dared to revolt against the traditional rules and regulations. A similiar fate awaits the class of ' 26. When some of the most pugnacious members of both classes met at the entrance to Seminary Hall there followed a scene of wild disorder. Vigorous hair pulling was equalled only by scratching and biting of extraordinary intensity. For weeks the participants administered liniment to black and blue marks, bumps, bruises and scars. Harold Loos the president recuperated from his injuries in time to lead the Grand March in the Junior Prom. But the Class of ' 26 had not yet completed its most unique History. In the Year ' 26 A. D., the president failed to appear in the ranks. A meeting was called to select a new leader. Don Campbell was elected to be assisted by Miss Ruth Wilkinson, Vice- President; Mr. Jake Jones, Secretary, and Mr. Willis Barber, Treasurer. When Al Henry and Mary McNeil were late in reaching Mr. Huston ' s class one day, because of the superior mechanism of his Yale Lock, they adapted a unique idea and joined to buy a wed-lock. Two unique Bureaus have been installed by the Class of ' 26 Matrimonial and Co-Educational. Any of the lower Classmen of ' 25 who need advice may see Leila Haney Ralston, John Altman or Launetta Heckendorn. In conclusion it is well for the readers of this History to know that this class is one of the wisest because of the unusually brilliant answers given to questions asked in Classes: Mr. Becker — Give an example of reflex action. Willis Barber — Jumping out of bed, putting off the alarm and jumping in bed again. IN GEOGRAPHY CLAS S Miss Keithan — Arthur, can you name the place in A ' aska where we sent food to starving Eskimos? Art Altman — No ' m. Miss K. — Correct, Nome. ' ENGLISH COMP. Miss Edgar — Don, use the word notwithstanding in a sentence. Don C. — The horse got rheumatism but not with standing. Harry C. — Mr. Welch, do you know that we are having only half a day of school in the forenoon tomorrow? Dad — Why? Harry — Because we have the other half in the afternoon. 56 THE SEQUELLE 1926 Poo4les 1926 THE SEQUELLE 57 58 THE SEQUELLE 1926 W President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Junior Class Officers Albert George John Adams Mary Brown Wayne Mong Junior Class Roll ADAMS, JOHN ALLINGER.

Since the reorganization of our association last year, our meetings have been very help- ful and interesting. We meet each Wednesday evening at 6:43. After the business meeting the devotional services are held. These are followed by the special program of the evening. Each member has given a prepared talk at some meeting daring the year, besides doing his reg- ular work as a member of the Association. After each ' l ' Meeting, a rehearsal of the Male Glee Club has been held. The Y has sponsored this club which has t een very successful under the direction of Miss Canan. The Y also sponsored a Sunday School class for Normal School men. This class met each Sunday at the Methodist Church and was taught by Mr Byrd Davis. Assistant County Superintendent of Schools. On Sunday Evening. January 24. the ' . M. C. A took charge of the Vesper service. The address of the evening was given by Mr. Guy Uplinger. the retiring president of the organization.

W. C. A. One of the most important organizations here at Clarion State Normal School is our Y. W. C. A. It has helped all the girls to get a broader and wiser view of the big problems of life. The Y. W. C. A. meets on Wednesday night of each week, in the chapel, at 6:30 to discuss these problems. Morning Watch is held each day at 6:55 in the Y parlor. The service is begun with a song, followed by the reading of the Bible, and prayer. Th e Social Service Committee helped the poor and sick at Christmas by sending out baskets of provisions to them. A bazaar was held at the Christmas season to make money for the girls who go as delegates to the Eagles Mere Conference. Lunches were served at nine-thirty in the evening, to meet the expenses of the weekly meeting. Three girls were sent to the Eagles Mere Conference last year. They learned new devices to make our Y more inter- esting and they brought back a wealth of usable material. The Y has made rapid strides in everything it has under- taken. The officers of the Y. W. C. A. — President, Blanche Heasley; Vice-President, Martha Wilson; Secretary, Opal Blair; Treasurer, Alice Harriger. Chairmen of Committees — Devotional, Ruth Wilkinson; U. R., Olivia Kerr; Social, Helen Lynn; Social Service, Cordelia Mohn- kern; Music, Pearl Sowers; Bible Study, Martha Stanley; Missionary, Harriett Kelso; Publicity, Dorothy Howe. 64 THE SEQUELLE 1926 Franklin Literary Society OFFICERS President Alice Harriger Vice-Presidents Laurietta Heck.endorn.

The spirit of good fellowship, characteristic of C. S. N. S. is upheld, and strengthened, by this Society. All of the members are eager to serve in the way for which they are bsst fitted. The activities of the year, began with A Franklin Night. During the semesters many interesting programs have been presented of which. Mother Goose Land, Poets and Authors ' Night, a play, Aunt Dinah ' s Quiltin ' Party, A Traveler in London, ' and a Minstrel ' s Review, have been the most credible. In June, with the graduation of the Seniors, we shall lose some of our most earnest workers, but we know that the girls of the Junior Class will carry on the work, and make the name Franklin Literary loved and honored by every Normal girl.

Mrs. Ruth Pope Turner was appointed Faculty Advisor to take the place of Miss Alice Lemon. The Bancroftians aim to stand for everything that is best in Clarion, and by their spirit of cooperation, and good will, hope to uphold the standards of the individuals and the society. On December 4, the novelty programs were started by a Scandinavian Night, made interesting by dances, songs, stories, and poems from the Scandinavian people. The following week a Spanish program was given. Everyone responded enthusiastically to these features and their outstanding success should give rise to many more novel ideas. The Franklin Literary Society was the guest of the Bancroft Literary on January 8. The members of the Bancroft Literary Society desire to ex- press their appreciation to Mrs. Turner, who has been helpful in everything that was suggested and done. .. ) i ) The Bancroft Literary Society is gaining a name at Clarion Normal. The present members wish to their successors an even bigger and more successful year. 1926 THE SEQUELLE 67 BANCROFT LITERARY SOCIETY 68 THE SEQUELLE 1926 Demosthenian Society Once a week a meeting of the Demosthenian Society is held m Music Hall.

At our regular Student Government meetings, we have taken up a study of the book, entitled, The Freshman Girl.

Training and improvement in dramatic abiHty as well as entertainment have been stressed. Under the leadership of the following officers, we all put our best work into out activities. Dramatic Leader First Semester Jane Boyd Don Campbell Helen Lynn Naomi Decker President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Miss Edgar Second Semester Helen Lynn Grace Heilig Naomi De:k.cr Arthur Altman The program also deserves much credit for keeping us busy. During the year, the prominent authors, their characteristics, and their plays were studied. Some of these plays have been produced by members of the club. Another feature of our work has been the study of parliamentary law. An organization was formed and business meetings held. These meetings included the solving of many fictitious and unusual problems. Each member now feels himself capable of conducting any type of meeting. A program involving a play, stunts, and music was given for all the other societies of the school, during the second semester. 1926 THE SEQUELLE 73 The members of the Junior Class were given an opportunity to try- out for the Dramatic Club this year. Those students who passed these try- outs were then eligible to be candidates for membership in the Club. This method will give a more reliable basis for membership selection. The aim of the club is to have willing and efficient members who will promote the in- terests of the organization. On November the twentieth, two plays were presented in the Chapel, by members of the Dramatic Club. CONVERTING BRUCE By Edith Broomhall Scene — The living room of the apartment occupied by Peggy and Beth. CAST Bruce Harrington, a young law student who has no use for girls Jcike Jones Jack Webster, his roommate, who adores girls Don Campbell Peggy Lee, a college girl. Jack ' s cousin Helen Lynn Beth Stuart, Peggy ' s roommate and Jack ' s adored one Geraldine Smith An interesting situation is created by the conversion of Bruce by Peggy while Jack and Beth enjoy the scene which they have successfully planned. One of the most interesting features of the play was the pretended deafness of Bruce so that he could hear what Peggy said behind his back. PATSY By Fannie Linsk,y Scene — The living room of Lanescote, the home of Miss Lane and her niece. Act I — Afternoon three days before Nita ' s wedding. Act II — The next day. CAST Miss Lucretia Lane .— Ruth Wilkinson Nita Farrell, her niece —. Winifred Bigler Ruth Fielding, Nita ' s chum .— Jane Boyd Beatrice Edwards Twins, Nita ' s _ - Grace Heilig Phyllis Edwards ' Friends.. Olevia Kerr Hilda Williams, an insurance agent Harriett Hall Patricia Muldoon, the maid Naomi Decker A farce, in which the actions of Patsy, the maid, nearly ruins Nita ' s romance, loses a deed, her job, and provides a general state of excitement. None of those who saw the play will ever forget Decker in the caramel scene. Her real name was Patricia, But thus she did decide, That if they called her ' Patsy, ' She need not be dignified. 74 THE SEQUELLE 1926 Senior Class Play A red letter day on our school dramatic calendar was March thirteenth when the senior vas presented. March was a busy month for those members of the senior class who were in the cast. Rehearsals came fast and furious. Other pastimes were neglected and all energies were bent toward the successful presentation of Daddy Long Legs, by Jean Webster. CAST OF CHARACTERS ' Daddy Long Legs .

Besides the many entertain- ments they have given at the school, they have had out of town engagements. The glee club delightfully furnished Christmas time in the Chapel, the Christmas of one hundred and fifty years ago. In this the ' showed many styles and customs of the day. The musical life of the school has been supplemented by many interesting numbers from the Glee Club. 1926 THE SEOUELLE 77 The Vested Choir The Vested Choir has contributed greatly to the success of our Sunday evening Vesper services. It consisted of fifty girls, chosen from the glee club, who were becomingly dresssd in white vestments. This energetic choir also assisted in special entertain- ments given at different times throughout the year. There are few normals who can boast of a vested choir such as ours, and we are very proud of it. 78 THE SEQUELLE 1926 , H _ Boys ' Glee Club The boys ' glee club was composed of twenty members be- longing to the Y. M. C. A. They rehearsed each Wednesday evening after the Y meeting. The first part of the rehearsal was set aside for the beginners, and the latter part for the more advanced members. Their work was mainly preparing songs for their Y 1926 THE SEQUELLE 79 s-SjC , ' Orchestra The orchestra is an organization of the Normal School which everyone enjoys. This orchestra, consisting of twenty-five members under the able direction of Miss Canan, has furnished music for the Chapel exercises three times a week as well as for many social functions of the school. Not only the Normal students, but the people of Clarion and adjoining towns have enjoyed the orchestral music. Our orchestra had the honor of furnishing music for the meetings addressed by Senator Gpar-ge Wharton Pepper and Governor Gifford Pinchot, when they visited Clarion. 80 THE SEQUELLE 1926 The Madrigal Club This charming musical club consists of about a dozen members from the Glee Club. The best singers in the Glee Club are chosen for membership. These girls have done some especially commendable work. They will give special numbers at all the places which they visit on the Glee Club tour. The word Madrigal means Three part singing. ' 1926 THE SEQUELLE Girls ' Basket Ball This basketball season has been a very successful one. With five old varsity members back in our fighting ranks, we naturally expected that many victories were to be Clarion ' s. The pass work of Curry and Ruth Wilkinson was one of the marked features of the games. The other members of the team also worked with the accuracy and precision of a clock. The high scorer of the year was Ruth Wilkinson, the able captain. Who can ever forget her sureness in making a basket when we most needed it? With the graduation of most of the regulars, C. S. N. S. will suffer quite a loss, but in spite of this a successful season is looked for in 1927.

Training School News One of the most outstanding features of Clarion Normal School is the Training School. Clarion Normal ranks thirteenth in the American Federation of Teacher ' s Colleges. It can hold this place only as long as it maintains the high standard of efficiency in its academic and training courses. In every training room there is now a critic teacher, who is able to give a great many suggestions and to hold conferences fre- quently with student teachers. Under the supervision of Mr. C. A. Middleswarth and very able critic teachers our Clarion students are receiving invaluable training, that will make them the well prepared teachers when they enter the teaching profession. 1926 THE SEQUELLE The Town Clock I have just chimed forth the midnight hour. Tonight I gaze upon a black rain-drenched world. I look about over the town hoping to find a companion light in some familiar window, but alas, I am the lone sentinel of the night. How could the townspeople get along without me? In me alone do they find a friend who is ever ready to cheer them with a radiant smile. Children often say that I am crippled because one of my hands is larger than the other. Nay, my little dears, who are so sound asleep in your cozy beds, this condition only makes me more efficient in turning the steps of the midnight wayfarer homeward. Yes, I have spoken truthfully, for here, young man, you come. If I am not mistaken, you passed me earlier in the evening. But, how? The first time I saw you, you carried a package which, judging from the size, I thought was a box of candy. Now, you are empty handed. Well, well, that tells the tale. How soon will your names be recorded on a book in the building of which I am the most important part? You are walking slowly now, as if engaged in pleasant thoughts. Now you glance up at me and quicken your pace. Almost instantly you are out of sight. Good-night. May your thoughts ever be pleasant as they are now. Ah! here comes my old friend the doctor. Doctor, why are you out so late. Good man, you have no doubt saved someone ' s life tonight. My benediction rest upon you, doctor, as you too, hurry out of sight. What! Methinks I see a blaze in yonder house. Yes, and I smell smoke, too. Fire! Fire! I cry, but my efforts are useless. These people do not hear me. Ah! someone else has seen the flames, for here come the brave firemen. Fight, firemen, fight! I can only stand here and referee. Ah! you are triumphant, brave, brave men. Go back home and rest in peace. I shall watch the whole night through; why need you stay? No, you people don ' t realize what a great benefit I am to the town. You couldn ' t do without me. I alone keep watch over the town while all of you are sleeping. Did you ever think of the many years that I have served you so faithfully? Did it ever occur to you that someday I should break down under the awful strain of my duties? What will you do then? Soon my delicate organisms will get out of order and my face will no longer be good to look upon. Then you will cast me away as you have all of my old friends. But, when I am thus thrust oUt ' of riiy rightful position, will someone not pay tribute to the faithful old town clock? Elva Lucus, ' 26. 88 THE SEOUELLE 1926 In the Shadow of Old Main Oh dear, I simply can ' t look over another one, said Helens Waving to herself. Papers, papers, papers, until I hate to look one in the face. And I might have been in college at this time. Oh, Daddy, why did you do iO and she dropped her head on her arms while the tears so long held back were allowed to come. The dusty old office seemed to sympathize in its very dreariness with her sorrow. And well it might, for it was a very real sorrow which caused her slender figure to shake with sobs. She remembered that only two years previous she was attend- ing a famous dramatic school. Always pretty and vivacious she was beloved by girls and boys alike. But her chief attractiveness was the sweet character which showed itself in a winning smile beloved by her friends. She was of about medium stature with a slender well-built figure. A proud little head crowned with soft dark hair was poised on shapelj ' shoulders. But the chief charm of her face were the midnight blue eyes and her sweet, serious mouth. She was the daughter of Dr. Waving, a distinguished professor of history in Levington College. Her parents were devoted to each other and many times Helene felt alone in the world. Her greatest ambition was to go on the stage, and strangely enough her parents did not disapprove. But the events of one day were destined to change her life. Her mother was suddenly killed in an automobile accident and a few hours later, maddened by grief, her father shot himself. There was very little money in the bank so Helene was forced to leave college and accept a position offered by Dr. Allen, her father ' s friend, and the president of Levington College. The position was that of teacher of Dramatics and English. It was not an easy one, but she accepted it gratefully. Many times she became discouraged and such scenes as we find at the beginning of the story had been enacted. After awhile, she dried her eyes and smiled a scornful little smile. How silly of you, she said to herself. Now you look a perfect fright. I do hope everyone has left the building. 1 suppose 1 should be glad of this opportunity to prove my powers instead of being a coward. She powdered her nose, humming a careless little tune the while, stacked up her papers and prepared to leave. A picture of her father sat on her desk, and she lifted it up for a moment. 1926 THE SEQUELLE 89 Dear Daddy, I guess you never loved me much while you were living, but I do believe your spirit is helping me now, she mur- mured. As her hand moved over the back of the frame, she felt it slide apart. Turning it over to see how she had broken it, she found a neat little compartment in which was a tiny envelope ad- dressed to herself. She hastily opened it and read the following words, written in her father ' s handwriting: My private safe is located back of West ' s American History. That explained why there was no money in the bank and why he had left his picture for her. Hastily donning her coat she locked the office door, passed through the quiet class room into the hall. All was dark as winter evenings at five-thirty are. There was no sound except the tapping of dry ivy against the rugged sides of Old. Main; only the voice of the wind like saddened ghosts greeted her. There was no use hoping to get into the library before dinner. She hurried over the creaky boards, not a little frightened. As she neared the head of the stairs, a large dark form loomed up in front of her. She screamed and might have fallen so weak with fear did she become, but strong arms caught and held her and a kind voice said, I ' m sorry 1 frightened you. It ' s so deucedly dark around here that I didn ' t see you. Helene quickly released herself from his arms and said, It was very foolish of me. I guess I ' m nervous tonight. Don ' t blame you a bit, her companion went on. This place is a bit spooky. I was looking for Dr. Allen ' s home, I thought he lived upstairs over this building. Oh, no said Helene, he lives over the Music Hall. Together they went down stairs where under the light, Helene saw her companion. He was a big, good-looking chap, with keen, gray eyes and curly golden hair. As he smiled at her she noticed his glistening white teeth. While he thought to himself, Joy! What a pretty girl. I wished I ' d kissed her up there in the dark. No, it ' s a good thing 1 didn ' t. She ' s the type that wouldn ' t stand for that. Helene left him at Music Hall and went on alone to her room. During dinner she kept wondering who he could be. But she was more interested in her father ' s note. After dinner she immediately went to the library. Miss Armstrong, the sweet-faced librarian greeted her. Helene loved the little lady in gray, as she playfully called her. She stopped to chat a few minutes with Miss Armstrong and Miss Carol, the good- 90 THE SEQUELLE 1926 natured, talented music director. But as soon as she could, she hurried to the history department. At last she found West ' s American History and took it down. But there was nothing back of it. She searched through all the books but with no success. Almost in tears, she faced this big disappointment. At last after partially controlling her emotion she passed out of the library. Just as she entered the hall, one of the students rushed up to her and exclaimed: Oh, Miss Waving, Mar ' Leigh has scarlet fever and our play comes off tomorrow night. What shall we do? Helene gasped, but was able to say, ' Don ' t worry. I ' ll see what I can do about it. Perhaps we may postpone it. But a few minutes later Dr. Allen was saying, We simply can ' t postpone it. Miss Waving. The tickets are all out and all is planned. The dramatic pla s will have to come off as scheduled. Say, Miss Waving, why don t you take the part! You have coached it, and no doubt know it. Oh, I couldn ' t, said Helene. But, she thought to herself, how good it would seem to be acting again. And in fifteen minutes she had promised to do it. The young man was not in sight and Helene felt a little disappointed although she refused to admit it even to herself. The next day was not an easy one. Her classes went badly and she was a little nervous over the play. But is seemed good to be making herself up again. She shook her soft hair loosely about her face, and put the purple dress on that the leading lady was to wear. It was a very pretty leading lady who went onto the stage Afterward everj ' one said she made the play. Dr. Allen and the good-looking stranger were waiting for her after the curtain fell. After contragulating her Dr. Allen said, Miss Waving, this is Donald Carlton, a famous playwright of New York. Mr. Carlton took the pretty plump hand which Helene offered and seemed loathe to release it. ' Miss Waving and I have met before, ' he said. Then to her, You are a marvelous actress, just the young lady I have been looking for. His words were cut short by some well-meaning fellow teachers who came to congratulate her. So Carlton was only able to say, Lunch with me tomorrow and I will tell you. Helene nodded her head and he went out. 1926 THE SEQUELLE 91 Over in her room she mused chin in hand on what he could have meant when he said. You are the very young lady I have been looking for. Then smiling a scornful smile at her thoughts she said, Don ' t be a fool, he probably was only flirting. But never- theless she hummed a little love tune as she prepared for bed. The next day she found out what Carlton meant when he said, Miss Waving, will you come to New York and play a part of leading lady in my new play, Gyspy Loves? ' It is a part of a beauti- ful Roumanian gypsy, and you, with your black curly hair and piquant face will be perfect. Helene stared at him in surpirse. Ch, I ' d love that, ' she said, but 1 am afraid it is quite impossible. Don ' t say that, said the playwright. Take until this evening to think it over, I am leaving tomorrow morning, so you will have to decide tonight. So Helene agreed to wait, but she knew what her answer must be. She could not finance herself on this trip. That evening, on the porch, she told him she could not go. When he asked her why, she was forced to tell him that she lacked the funds. Why worry about that? he said, his keen eyes upon her face. I have plenty of money. I ' ll be glad to lend you some. Oh, thank you, but 1 couldn ' t do that, said Helene. Then marry me and let me give you the money, said the astounding young man seizing Helene ' s hands. Why I could never marry a man I did not love. she said. Not even if he loved you, said Carlton drawing her into his arms in spite of her struggles. Helene 1 fell in love with you last night before I even saw you. Of course you do not know me very well but I think you know I can be trusted and I will make you love me. I shall never interfere with your career either. Please, Mr. Carlton, said Helene, Let me go. 1 shall never let you go, you little gyspy, he said kissing her lips. Just then Miss Harrison, the distinguished head of the English department appeared at the door. Oh, I beg your pardon, she said. Helene gasped and as Carlton loosened his hold she ran into the building. An hour later she entered her father ' s office again. She sat staring blankly at the walls when her attention was drawn to a dusty old volume of West ' s American History. When she 92 THE SEQUELLE 1926 lifted it down she found that sure enough the plaster back of it came off in a square. There she found a silver box, inside of which was a roll of bills containing thousands of dollars and some old love letters written by her mother to her father. Last of all was her father ' s worn black diary. She opened it and read in one place. I never did trust banks. I will hide my money here so Helene and our daughter will have it if they need it. Then on the last page she read, Oh, Helene (speaking of her mother) they tell me you are dead but I will never leave you. Our souls were wedded in paradise. I am going home to kiss you once then I will follow you. Through tear dimmed eyes Helene read it and then she said, I hope if I ever fall in love it will be like Daddy ' s and Mother ' s. She hurried over to Dr. Allen and told him about it. He and Donald Carlton rejoiced with her over her good luck. To think that all that fortune lay in the shadow of Old Main, said Dr. Allen. Helene, if you can forgive me for losing my head tonight, and will go to New York I promise to make you famous, Carlton said as he walked home with her. I will not speak of love to you until you become a success. So it came about that Helene went to New York and became a famous actress. A year later she greeted Carlton after she had been proclaimed by the critics of New York a great actress. I still love you, he said, I love you for your beauty and talent, but I worship you for your pure soul. Will you be my wife? Need you ask me? said Helene. I think I have always loved you only I was not quite sure of myself. Now I know — . Don ' t ask me what happened next. All I know is that they were married the next week in ' The Little Church Around the Corner. Ada Downey ' 26. 1926 THE SEQUELLE Shattered Glass The yellow candle spluttered as though frightened by the stark ugliness of the room. Clouds of Oriental incense and blue smoke were wafted upward in a hazy, gloomy mist while a sufficient odor of jasmine and narcissus filled the room. Jasmine and narcissus! The man in the shadows laughed harshly, so harshly that the girl with the weasel face cried out in terror. M ' sieu, you are ill? He laughed again while the candle seemed to shrink and cower before some malevolent influence. Ill, ugly one? No, I have died and came to sit and gloat upon my grave. Long ago upon this night, my graduate night, 1 was in the midst of honor and triumph. Out of the past the voices of my youth are calling to me. They are gathering in some halcyon field with gifts for the honor and glory of our Alma Mater. Rufflon has written a book, Jacques has painted a picture, Watteau has made a mint of gold. But always they ask, What of Pierre? He was the favorite, the most brilliant, son, what has he done? Tonight, they shall know and you little weasel, shall send this message. ' Pierre, beloved of St. Renie has died. He lives no more to desecrate her hallowed name. ' Here, let me drink before this vile cold shall freeze my very bones. He raised his glass with a gesture at once terrible and magnificent. Then, here ' s to death, the antidote for woe Life is vain, a cruel and empty show, Death alone is real; Death the only hope we know. The glass almost touched his lips when the girl clutched his arm with a scrawny hand. The powerful acid poured over her ragged clothes and ate into her flesh. She screamed aloud in an agony of pain and suffering. Witch! the man cried angrily. So you would cheat me of my birthright. Death comes to wiry man and even 1, the most miserable shall have that. His long, slender fingers, fumbled with the pieces of broken glass. Shattered glass! That ' s what my life has been. I, too, have known the glory of the shining lights, the sparkling wine and soul-stirring toasts. And now — wreckage! He caught his breath with a moaning sound half a sob and half a laugh. The girl, mad with pain and hunger, clutched at him with scrawny hands. No! No! Oh! No! Pierre is great. Pierre is favored by the gods. You shall write, Pierre, even of the slums, of Na, Na, the weasel face. See, tonight I shall dance in the Pirates Den. Pierre! Think what it means? Food and drink for you, strength to write and fire to keep away the cold. 94 THE SEQUELLE 1926 She whirled away from him m a frenzied, deverish dance hke a thing bewitched. Now she was a shy elf of the shadows; now a whirling sprite, unbelievable supple, twisting, turning, bowing, posing. There in that ugly room she danced as no human being had ever danced before. Women have danced in new mown fields and shady glens; in the voluptuous luxury of the harems and the sordid ugliness of evil dens, in lighted halls and gilded palaces. The Weasel danced in the cold with arms that were numb with pain yet the beauty of the wood nymphs and the leaping doe was hers. She danced alone but she danced for love. At last she fell down at his feet with a little maon. Pierre! Pierre! ' Her slim, lovely body lay at his feet quivering and ex- hausted while her hungry eyes searched his face. Pierre — A crimson stream trickled from his lips and fell upon the shattered glass. She lay so quiet, so still. Poor little weasel, never, never to dance again. The man who had taken her all and given nothing bent over her. He raised a piece of the glass fearfully to her lips. There was not the faintest trace of moisture upon it. The Weasel was quite dead. The wind howled; the snow sifted through the broken pane and the candle burned lower. The man heedless of all, saw only the face of the girl who had loved him. Through the crimson stained glass her face was transformed with a soft, rosj ' glow. Beautiful, beautiful, he whispered. In his eyes was the yearning look of the soul which glimpses Paradise from the threshold of Inferno. He covered her dead body with the miserable rags which served as blankets. Then still holding the stained glass before his eyes he looked about the room. The scarred walls, the broken panes and the ugly furniture were all enveloped in a haze of beautiful rose color. Beauti- ful, beautiful, he whispered again. Like a man in a dream he seated himself at the table and began to write. In the morning they found him frozen to death. On the table before him lay the manuscript of the world ' s greatest modern play Shattered Glass. ' It was dedicated to St. Renie ' s College. To thee Alma Mater, I give this toast. Truth and beauty shall always follow in your wake; I give my all for your sweet sake Love is the glass through which we see The vision of our soul s infinity; Who gives not but of all things partake Knows neither truth or beauty; For love is the eye which discovers beauty.
