hem' the burst of bells pealmg WHEN. WE ENTERED THE MOUNT in Septem- ber, '43, we were wide-eyed Freshmen but we were not the babies of the College. There were others who caused the upper classmen to smile indulgently, others who wandered through the Crossroads with a lost look in their eyes, others to whom the wide sunny lawn of the Mount beckoned . . . the mem- bers of the Nursery School. For four years the confines of the playrooms in Admin housed them, even as the same red brick building sheltered us, and we both advanced in wisdom and in age. At student assemblies, we honored God and our country. They, too, learned to lisp their prayers and to sing the Star Spangled Banner in a childish treble. We became artisans and dabbled in oils, Not to be outdone, our pocket-edition Mounties set up their easels and went to work. The realms of the hockey field and the tennis courts were not unknown to the class of '47, Nor in like manner were the sand box and the new slide neglected by our Nurseryites. They worked and they played, big and little Mounties. Now when the time is draw- ing nigh, when the halls of Admin will no longer echo with our chatter and our laugh- ter, we can leave the Mount to our Sister Freshmen who will some day become Sister Alumnae.
