G LYMAX - P that they might choose from a group of pageants four which they would like to see. Before they made any decisions, they chose several of their group to act as spokesmen for them. Linus Huber, Peggy Ogden, Gladys Harvey, and Lester Howells were selected to enjoy this honor. When these appointments had been made, they awaited, expectantly, the lavish entertainment which had been planned for them. The pageant, Algebra and English , had delighted all of them so much that the king agreed that they might be enacted a second time. Biology under the direction of Miss Smith, was chosen as one of the new performances. The fairies were delighted to see elves dressed in colorful costumes representing animals, fish, birds, and flowers. Brilliant butterflies and moths fiuttered over iiame colored blossoms, while drowsy dragon fiies hovered over a smoky blue pool. The last of these gorgeous spectacles was History, presented by Miss Appleby. Great heroes mounted on plunging war chargers brandished glitter- ing swords overhead, as they hurled back bands of savage barbarians. The fairies were so impressed by the grandeur of this spectacle, that, after bidding the king good-bye, they left the Castle in subdued silence. By Sep- tember 8, 1931, however, they were again eager to return to King Davis' Castle, and they trooped in to the spacious halls more jolly and gay than ever before. After choosing four pages, Geraldine St. Clair, joseph Mackanos, Ruby Gaston, and Caroline St. Clair to represent them in the Castle, they waited anxiously for the king's famous pageants. This year they wished to see the new version of two of the pageants which they had enjoyed before, History and English . In addition, they asked that they might see the much talked of plays Typing and Bookkeeping, both of which were directed by Miss Calhoun. In the play Typing a remarkable group of eltin marionettes vied with each other in presenting a number of dramatic sketches. The action moved swiftly, and the interest and suspense in the final scene was intense. Bookkeeping the last pageant, was very interesting. It was the story of a fabulously wealthy king whose fortune was threatened, for a time, by the carelessness of his Chancellor of the Ex-Chequer, but who was finally saved from financial ruin by a wise, although insignificant accountant in the court. When this pageant had ended, King Davis told the fairies that a group of their friends were soon going to leave the Castle never to return. Upon hearing this, the fairies took counsel among themselves, and decided to give a banquet in honor of their departing friends. They are busy now seeking in all parts of the world for the sweetest nectar and ambrosia for the feast. They wish their parting friends well, and hope that some day, they, too, may become Fairy Queens and Kings. - MARIAN ST. CLAIR, '33, 30 . tw. U, M u ' u...-...-. ns: all ..

eCLYMAX-- f ' Paddle Your Gwn Canoe For years we have paddled and guided up stream, lfach one in his canoe, And all through these years we have struggled, it seemed Our goal stood there grandly in view. XYhen waters of trouble have tipped our canoe, And it seemed as though victory was lost, The hand of a teacher came to the rescue, And kept us from being storm-tossed. The future is yet to he fought for and won. Then, no help will lme there in our trials, llut each of us feels that the days that are gone, llave prepared us for life's Afterwhiles.
