If you have glimpsed from this window, giving on our college campus, a little of our college life, with all its sweet intimacies of four years’ comradeship, of work and play, so soon to be but memories — if you have but seen there a little of the spirit of our college and of the loyalty and love we bear our Alma Mater, we have suc- ceeded in our aim. And so we hope that this book may not be altogether unworthy of its five predecessors, which have placed such a high standard for us to follow. i l S Mm ®0 ©ur jfflistress of Discipline Jilotljet be H al e£ jFattfjful Serbant of tfjc college anb true frienb to all stubents lie, tbe Poarb of Cbitors of tbe Nineteen unbreb Sixteen “ nnales” bo most affectionatelp bebicate tfjisi our boob in grateful recognition of tbe man? binbnesses bestotoeb upon our class buring our college pears poarfc of trustees Adrian Iselin, Jr. ...

And down here at New Rochelle, we cele- brated our eleventh birthday. To the casual observed it might seem that a student at a College which has been in existence half a century, has the advantage over one who is studying at a College whose life numbers only a decade of years. It might seem so, but if he examines into the matter, the observer will find that we girls of New Rochelle have equal opportunity at every point. And in addition, we have other possessions which a secular institution can never know. I sometimes wonder if we all really realize how great are our advantages. We should realize it; we should see and understand the difference between our training and that of others. One may possess every advantage in the world, but unless she knows she possesses them and guides herself accordingly, her advantage avails nothing. It is not possession, but the realization of possession that brings power. And now, wdiat have we that these secular Colleges have not? We have, first, a something that you can sense as soon as you come within our precincts, a subtle, indefinable something, which, for want of a better term, we call “Atmosphere.” There is an Atmosphere within the walls of the tiniest Chapel in the most crowded district which is a direct contradiction to the world outside. So, too, but to a greater degree, there is an Atmosphere that permeates every inch of this College which you will never find to be part of a secular institution though you search the world. It is as though the souls of all the individuals forming the little community, were in subconscious communication. It is what causes you to stand for an instant, when you encounter it after an absence, and ask j ourself, “What is it?” You are more fully awake to the things of life when this Atmosphere is about you. A rustic Cross, hung in Springtime with trailing wistaria, standing where the paths intersect, in full view of them all, yet belonging to no one alone, carries a reminder of that great Message and Influence, which reaches out into all the paths of life, yet is confined to none. Within our little world you can see as you look from your window, you will find all the types the world furnishes. Watching them, realiz- ing the symbolism of incidents and trifles, you can find all the philosophy of life here among us. But it is the Atmosphere that makes you alive to the significance of simple forms. And }X)u cannot live, day in and day out, in an Atmosphere without imbibing it. It seeps down into your soul, and becomes a part of you, changing your mode of thought and influencing your outlook upon life. Then consider our system of Philosophy. There is nothing to equal it among men. It is universal as the Church herself is universal. No glittering brilliancy, no hollow-ringing theories, no notice of the influence of the moment to be replaced to-mor- row by a more ingenious invention — unless it be to counteract this influence by con- fronting it with right reason — none of this, but all the sound Logic, all the common sense, steadiness, and depth that the mind can absorb. Even more, for the clearer insight into our philosophy grows with your growth, deepens with your psychological development, and takes on ever new meaning with your experience in Life. The familiar phrase might be paraphrased: “Fads may come and Fads may go, but Aristotle goes on forever!” Of course he does, for Truth can never die. And suppose you were studying some Philosophy — whatever happened to be the fashion at the time- — at a secular College. You think your God-given Faith would preserve you from error. It might. If you were the object of the especial protection of Providence, you might be uninfluenced by their representations. But if ) r ou were just an ordinary, human girl, with the receptive mind characteristic of the age at which the ordinary girls enters College, I doubt that the depth of your Faith would remain undisturbed. Your Faith may be sufficient to move mountains, but if a I hi- losophy that is directed against everything that you have been reared to believe and to cherish, is set before you each day, unconsciously, unwillingly, you assimilate these doctrines. You cannot help it. If a pebble is dropped on a soft wax plate, it will leave its impression, whether it be dropped by accident or design. That is what the mind is — a soft wax plate; and the doctrines are the pebbles. What is one to do? Be sure the pebble that is dropped is of the quality to leave a true impr ession. Up to the time you and I leave College, our experience in the actual life of men is largely a matter of theory and dreams. We scarcely realize what we must meet and overcome when we set ourselves against the commercial hunger of our day. But when we do go forth, there is just one thing that will carry us straight ahead, through all kinds of difficulties, onward to ultimate success and honor. And this one thing is an Ideal rightly formed. Where are the Ideals for life formed? At College. Here you and I have another advantage. You cannot make a velvet cloak out of gingham. You cannot make an Ideal that comprises the highest and best, unless the material from which the Ideal is formed is of the highest and best. Secular Colleges furnish gingham by the bolt — doctrines surcharged with fashionable cynicism and an outlook upon Life through the eyes of a disillusioned failure in the Market of Commercialism. But for us — for you and for me — for us there is the velvet cloth. Clothed in our cloak cut from material of Hope and Enthusiasm, we can face the world fully, steadily, hopefully. New Rochelle will not send us out to battle, first with ourselves, until we regain, if need be, our faith in mankind which had been, perhaps, shattered by pernicious doctrines. But rather does she take us to the crest of a high hill, and pointing out the world spread before us, say, “See, my daughter, it is all yours, to conquer; or by it to be conquered. Pitfalls there are ahead, plenty of them. But, see, look at the wide stretches of flower-dotted meadows. Remember the Philosophy of your Church ; keep your heart true; look up into the glorious sunshine above you, and let the sidewalk beneath your feet take care of itself. Hope everlastingly! Be firm in your Faith. Go forth, fight and win ! I have equipped you fully, but the use of your weapons remains to yourself. Vale!” New Rochelle may look back but a decade of years, but she looks ahead a century: working, achieving, travelling onward to the resplendent position that is to be hers. And the world may estimate as it pleases the value of attending a large secular College. But for me, I am glad to be at a College whose Atmosphere is one of moral beauty ; whose Philosophy contains eternal Truth; whose teachings are conducive to the forma- tion of the highest Ideals ; and whose benediction I shall carry with me when I go out to start on the Journey of Life.

Well, listen my friend and you I shall hear the wild, wild tale of my Freshman Year. I arrived September twentieth, with sixty-one timid, tearful and tender Freshmen. (Don t laugh, igno- rant one! That is alliteration.) ’Mediately were we whirled into the vortex of col- lege life. That is, we registered, chased elusive trunks, and received six months every time we asked unctions upper class men if they were Freshies. S a fact! “The day after our arrival the Juniors gave us a little party, at which we acquired many useful things, such as information, lollvpops, and cases. What : Hazing . , Oh yes, it was extremely thrilling (in anticipation) ! We chased a frozen substance cioss a smooth surface with strange weapons commonly called spoons. Long-suffering Sophs led us through the intricate mazes of the ‘one-step,’ and thence to bed. We had a wonderful time, but that night we all dreamt of hazings— they say dreams go by opposites, you know. “After that, we felt thoroughly acclimated, and proceeded to the business at hand — electing officers, organizing a basket ball team, and rushing upper classmen. 1 hen the Sophomores invited us to a delightful dance, at which we enjoyed ourselves im- mensely, and discovered that the Sophs really were nice and ‘likable.’ “Time passed, and we were becoming quite blase, when the engagement of the Class of 1919 to the Class of 1917 was formally announced. You heard about the wed- ding, didn’t you ? Yes, Kitty made a stunning bride, and we quite envied the Junior President who ‘stood blushing with a husband’s pride and love.’ That same evening we had reason to admire the ingenuity of the bride’s father, who calmly pocketed his hoary beard when the dance commenced, — why — we just can’t say. , Outside of these exciting events we were quite calm but say, it makes me howl every time I think of what we all but did to the Sophs, the night they gave ‘Everyman.’ Cheer up ! ‘Everything comes to him who waits.’ After New Year’s, we in turn, entertained the Sophs, and everybody had a ‘glorious time.’ We were waxing very enthusiastic over College life when ‘Mid-Years’ came — and went — leaving us limp and exhausted. However, we regathered oui vitality and resources, and turned our attention to the production of the Class play, Success? O that goes without saying! In between times we executed many little impromptu stunts, such as clown dances, and impersonations. “Also in the course of time we entertained the Juniors, to the great delight of many stricken Freshies. O, and the Meet ! It was great fun in more than one sense of the word. Bui; I had better run along now. I see friend Junior over there. Oh, by the way, have you heard the two latest? No? Well— why are the History Recitation marks like a baseball score? Can’t guess? All innings and no runs. Ha! Ha! Here is the other: Why are Bessie’s cases like attention? Because they wax and wane! “Well, so long. What? don’t know who I am? Why Frisk, the Freshman mascot of course. ' ’ Curious, I turned around and beheld the speaker’s erstwhile audi- ence — a little yellow dog, — gazing at me quizzically, while a white woolly Pom, up- held by a huge dark blue bow, scudded merrily across the campus to its “Junior friend.” ©fficet£ of Jftestfjman Clas President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Members of the Student Advisory Board Catherine Buckley Helen Cogan Anna Manning Margaret Ball Catherine Buckley (Helen Cogan THE SOPHOMORES ikipfjomore Clas fttetorp (With apologies to Tennyson.) Now, thro’ our magic mirror clear, That hangs before us all the year, Shadows of college life appear, Crossing the campus green. And ’mid the throng of school girls gay, That treads an old familiar way Comes a lass — who is she, pray ? Milady of eighteen. And in our web we still delight To weave the mirror’s magic sight. Such a host of shadows ! and we have woven them all, so we will tell you the story of eighteen as we read it in our web. It was the very first night of her “sophomority” that milady took it upon herself to christen nineteen nineteen and to free her from original sin; and when this neces- sary task was done, she felt free to go away and play the long summer through. And with September milady of eighteen came back and when she beheld the Freshmen she thought to “Stop! Look! Listen!” for the baby she had christened had grown beyond her expectations during the summer, and was even now indulging in the art of Terp- sichore. But when milady sought to execute her well-laid plans in accordance with her belief that to spare the rod is to spoil the child, she learned that “The old order changeth. yielding place to new, . . . Lest one good custom should corrupt the world,” which is a poetic way of saying, “Hazing is abolished.” So milady swallowed this decree in the form of an informal party to this new and “very odd” little sister. Time stole by and milady worked and played ; made and broke filipinos with her companions, until November crept in and thoughts of gay good times, and she asked her new little sister to come and dance with her in the blue-bedecked living-room. And here, in our web, we read: “They came that night into a vritable Blue Paradise. Then, when the dance was over, milady of eighteen turned her steps to other paths and soon we learned she was “The Only Girl” to play before us “Everyman.” And the next we see in our web is milady again with nineteen, and once more she is “Dan- cing Around.” And now a troop of damsels sad, With note-books, blotters, pencils, pad — For grinding hard is now the fad Of girls in N. R. C. And often thro’ the silent night Thro’ the transom shines a light — What can this shadow be? Ah! yes — our web tells us, — it is the girls preparing for exams and qualies, “The Things That Count.” And now what mean these dark shadows that pass and are reflected in our mirror? We see banners flying and balls tossing; and we know that milady and nineteen have come to “The Great Divide” and that, for the time, each to the other has become “The Dummy.” But let such phantom shapes pass! — for the next is pleasing and we say to our- selves “To-Night’s the Night,” for milady of eighteen tosses her “Goldenlocks” behind the footlights — it is the night of her class play! Now often thro’ the purple night, Below the starry clusters bright, Some flying taxi, gliding light, Speeds down to Pepperday. — and we rejoice, for now we see milady of eighteen and her fairy godmother, “Alone At Last.” The pictures now grow rarer in our web ; and milady of eighteen seems sad, for through the mirror passes the shadow of her fairy godmother wearing a wondrous hood, and as we listen we hear milady cry Old year, you must not die, You gave me a friend and a godmother sweet, And the new year will take her away. Old year you shall not die ; We did so laugh and cry with you, We’ve half, a mind to die wdth you, Old year if you must die. And soon, ah very soon, milady of eighteen is reflected in our mirror, satchel-bur- dened — and we realize that it is vacation time, her “Hit-the-Trail Holiday” and as her shadow passes through the glass we can hear her say: “I’m oif for home — “Hip, hip, hooray,” and so Out flies the web and now floats wide; The mirror cracks from side to side; She’s left, for just a time — our pride Milady of eighteen, and so we lay our web aside.

We are prompted to do this by a sense of duty, for, knowing our own worth and individuality, we feel it is only right that we transmit a small portion at least to our friends and patrons. Let us begin by sajdng that we are a wonderful class, rarely talented and stu more rarely clever. In every branch of literature and art we seem to radiate knowl- edge. We might take, for example, that interesting and inspiring subject— Philosophy. We are so brilliant, our remarks are such revelations that our Professor has prom- ised to publish a book containing our philosophic answers. In Chemistry we outshine the Bunsen flame itself, and we are sharper than the most concentrated acid. So, kind readers, you can readily see that of all the classes in College, our class is the most appreciated, the most admired, the most beloved — by the Juniors themselves. 3Tujst for gulb JLang pnc We’ll love our dear old Freshman days Wherever we may be, For Sophomore Year we’ll give a cheer, We love its memory; But the happiest days of College life, The days we think divine, We dedicate to Junior Year Just for auld lang syne. The friends we made in Junior Year Seem stauncher, truer far Than any friends that are to he Or any friends that were, And so, wherever we may go Our thoughts will ’ere incline Toward happ5 jo)T)us Junior Year Just for auld lang syne. pot ipourri We would like to enlighten the Business Members of the Quarterly Staff on one small point. When said members are admitted to the Staff, they are presented with a key. Now, the object of this key is to open the Quarterly Store — not to take up space in a bureau drawer in the Residence Hall. The Misses Loretta McNamera, ’17, and Janet Lynch, ’16, have been fined for singing too often the following popular songs: “Absent,” “Forgotten,” “Just a Wearin’ for You.” Father Halpin — “Must every one have operations, Miss G?” Miss G (awakening from a little nap) — “Oh! no, Father, just Miss Cuddihy and Miss Duffy.” The Junior element of Elective Latin class wishes to announce its intention of taking a Post Graduate Course on the “Value of Cases.” Regular elections of Sigma Mu were held March twenty-third. The ceremony was most impressive. The Sergeant-at-Arms, tall and mighty, stood in the center of the room and held the irreproachable “faces” o’er her. Each Sigma Muist, hand placed solemnly thereon, swore to love, cherish and obev the Constitution. 9 pUogt m Experience is the most expensive teacher. An experiment is the result of experience. Therefore an experiment is the most expensive teacher. Proof — Four dresses gracing the walls of a Junior’s closet — each dress containing twenty acid holes. Any girl who is going thru College life “arushin’ ” had better “watch her step.” Qualifying examinations for Sigma Mu members will take place the last week in May. Any young girl wishing to become a Philosophy teacher, apply to Junior Philos- ophy Class three times a week. You’ll change your vocation! Miss Marie Tracy was called before the railroad commissioners and requested either to buy an extra ticket for her traveling bag on Sunday night, or else not have it so laden with eatables that it takes two conductors to carry it off the train. Take the former advice, Marie! Mary once had fifty cents, She swore she wouldn’t lend it, And every time she looked at it She thought of how she’s spend it. But one night it was just at eight She went to visit Laura, An A.B. caught her in the room And spent the fifty for her. Cla££ JHote On September twenty-fifth the Junior Class was reunited after the summer months and began its Junior year under the competent guidance of Helen O’Reilly. College life was the same, yet different, for in place of our beloved elder sisters of 1915 we found awaiting us sixty little sisters. It was then that we awoke to the realization that we were truly upperclassmen, with all the honor and dignity attached to the name. We had no fears for the welfare of 1919, however, for we found her a strong, spirited class from the very beginning. October twenty-second marked the establishment of a new precedent by the Class of 1917, called the Office of Investiture. The night was ideal, one of those mysterious, shadowy, wonderful October nights when the harvest moon shone in all its splendour and a million tiny stars peeped out and smiled down with their queer little twinkly eyes. About eight o’clock we Juniors assembled, each one in cap and gown, each carrying a tiny blue lantern. The Freshmen met in the Castle and in contrast to our sombre robes, wore white regulations. Out of the stillness of the night the chapel bell resounded and slowly, silently, we marched in single file on each side of the Residence Hall, until we formed a semi- circle around Father Halpin and Reverend JVIother, who were to bestow the caps and gowns. With “Just a Song at Moonlight” we reminded the Freshmen that this was “the beginning of their dreams and all the joys of dear old College life. We all felt the deep solemnity of the occasion, and every heart thrilled with mingled joy and sadness when Father Halpin, in words which seemed inspired, spoke of the beauty and impressiveness of the ceremony. It made every one realize more than ever how deeply we love dear old New Rochelle. The first social event of Junior Year was held on November twenty-third, when we Juniors celebrated our second marriage. The Freshman president, representing 5 1 9, was the bride, the Junior president, representing ’17, the groom. Dressed in wed- ding attire, Miss Buckley made a very charming bride, but we feel that, naturally, the groom was admired most by the young ladies of the College. After congratulations had been extended, the two classes withdrew to the Dinnig Hall, where a wedding supper was served. The third series of 1917’s plays was held in the Gymnasium on January nine- teenth. Considering the time spent on the Play and various other difficulties under which the committee labored, we feel that the success attained was well merited. We are urging the Yama Yama chorus to apply for a season at the Metro- politan. The side-splitting “Movie” and Dialogue will never be forgotten by any one present who had the slightest sense of humor. Did you ever talk about, dream about, live on the anticipation of anything for half a year? That is what we Juniors did, and when Junior week actually came the reality was far more wonderful than even our most wonderful dreams. Every moment was taken up with some excitement and the only criticism we have of the week is that it was all too short. Wednesday we had a theatre party in the city and when we returned Mother De Sales surprised us with a Junior supper. Then we had Class night in the Living Room, and for the time we forgot we were Juniors while talking about and singing the songs of good old Freshman and Sophomore days. Thursday we all went to Pepperday for luncheon and Thursday night was the Class Play given by the Dramatic element of the Class. It was a huge success and afforded all a merry laugh. But this is really only the preamble to the most wonderful part of Junior Week — the Prom. It is rather a dangerous thing to mention the Prom now, for you are apt to see a few tears stealing down a cheek or hear a pathetic voice say: “Oh, please don’t mention the Prom, or I’ll be ‘off’ again!” Many a Junior fell victum to the charms of some fortunate young man, while dancing to the music of an exquisite waltz. However, it is all over now and we have only the memories to live on until 1918 gives her Prom next year. Then we hope once again to “trip the light fantastic toe” at the Biltmore. The Junior Oratorical Contest was held March fourteenth. Every girl who spoke displayed wonderful ability, but the first place was given to Clare Sheehan and the second to Gertrude Sullivan. athletic JloteS The Junior-Senior Meet was held on March twenty-fifth in spite of urgent opposition. Much to the regret of both parties, the basketball game was called off, owing to the fact that the Freshmen and Sophomores decided to play a game that same afternoon. “Morning exercises” at 8.30 have been reduced to three times a week instead of daily, as heretofore. The Juniors feel the evil effects of this change greatly. The basketball team that has never been defeated suffered its third defeat yes- terday afternoon by a score 6 — o. The score was deuce until the ninth inning, but the opposing team kicked a goal and so our running center was put out on third. Regular athletic meetings will take place once a year hereafter. Business is thriving ! jfrom tfjer Clares of learning A new and excellent custom has been established by the Class of 1918 — namely, “Sophomore Week.” “Resignation Week,” which followed immediately, proved equally as exciting. The Senior Class is a very well organized class, for it has a “King and an “Alida.” The Sophomore motto seems to be: “Better be six months too early than a min- ute too late” — especially when it comes to issuing invitations. The Freshman Class is very retiring when on third corridor, otherwise they are far from being so. It is rumored that the Senior Class is extremely truthful and that one night they stayed up until 10.15 playing “Truth.” junior Class; President ..... Hele F. O’Reilly Vice-President ....

So many trunks simply couldn ' t be needed in one spot. Trunks, trunks, trunks; fat trunks, lean trunks, long trunks, squat trunks, piled high on the porch of every somber little cottage a very world of Cottages, and Sixteen had just arrived. She had scarcely made herself comfortable on a tiny hat trunk, when the houses seemed to fade into the distance, the trunks became trunks of trees, and Sixteen found herself sitting on a rock, under a tree, in a very dense woods. She. was just beginning to think herself a very much frightened and lonesome girl when two odd figures came running up the path and quite took Sixteen’s thoughts from herself. “They are evidently playing follow the leader, ’ thought Sixteen, as she watched the younger one in cerise and black follow closely in her older sister’s steps. “Who are they?” she wondered, “Antipathies I think.” (She was glad no one was listening because it didn’t sound at all the right word.) By this time the Antipathies had come quite close and they looked Sixteen over from top to toe and back again. She began to feel oh, so small and timorous, and when the younger Antipathy suddenly (without any warning) handed her a note, she almost fell over with surprise. When Sixteen had watched them out of sight, she hastily opened the note and read : Come, I’ll take no denial, We must have a trial. For really this evening I’ve nothing to do. You must wear old striped clothes, And protect well your nose, For you’ll get what is coming to you. I’ll be judge, I’ll be jury, So beware of my fury, You’ll be hazed well before I get through. Sixteen was just a little frightened at this fierce sounding summons, although she knew, deep down in her heart, that she was twice as big as Sophia Antipathy, and really shouldn’t be afraid. “Oh, I wish I’d thought to ask them what country Fm in,” she said, “but then they really gave me so little chance to talk.” “Well,” jumping to her feet, “the first thing to do is to make a grand survey of the country I’m going to travel through. It’s something very like learning geog- raphy,” thought Sixteen, as she stood on tip-toe, in hopes of being able to see a little farther. In the distance she spied a hill surrounded by a beautiful garden. “If I could only reach the top of that hill,” she said to herself, “I should be able to see the country far better, and here is a path that leads straight to it — at least, no, it doesn’t do that — (after going a few yards along the path, and turning several sharp corners) but I suppose it will at last. How curiously it twists! It’s more like a corkscrew than a path ! Well this turn goes to the hill, I suppose, no, it doesn’t.” After much wan- dering about, Sixteen ’s eye was finally attracted by a sign tangent to the foot of the hill which read “Four Years’ Climb.” “Silly old hill,” thought one-third of Sixteen ’s brain, “who’d, be bothered with taking four years to climb you ! I’ll try to get up another way,” and so she did, but alwaj ' s coming back to the same angle. “Oh, it’s too bad!” she cried. “I never saw such an angle for getting in the way.” However, there was the hill full in sight, so there was nothing to be done but start again. This time she came upon a large flower bed with a border of roses and a huge tree growing in the middle. “Tree of Knowledge!” cried Sixteen, clapping her hands, as she watched the printed leaves (instead of the usual green variety) turning over in the breeze. “What wonderful, wonderful flowers!” said Sixteen, as she walked around the border. “O, Rose, I wish you could talk!” “We can talk,” said the Rose, “when there’s anybody worth talking to and I was really wondering when you’d speak! Said I to myself, ‘her face has got some sense in it and it’s rather a clever one’ ” (“T. L. for me,” thought Sixteen.) “I suppose you’re wondering at the great number of us,” the rose continued, waving a petal toward her sisters, “but we just can’t grow fast enough. You see, we’re the roses used in syllogisms; now if they’d only use daisies or tulips or — well any other flower almost but — maybe you don’t know what a syllogism is? You don’t meet them formally till your third year on the hill.” Sixteen confessed her ignorance and the rose was beginning to explain (a little conceitedly Sixteen thought). “All Flowers are beautiful.” The rose is a flower — when at the sound of pebbles being scuffled, the Rose quietly withdrew into herself and Sixteen found herself face-to-face with the queen. “Where are you going?” said the Queen. “Look up, speak nicely, and please to not twiddle your fingers about all the time.” Sixteen attended to all these directions and explained Apologetically (in explana- tion and defense) that she was on her way to climb the hill. “I don’t know what you mean by your way,” said the Queen; “all the ways about here belong to me — but why did you come out here at all?” she added in a kindlier tone, “Curtsey while you’re thinking what to say. It saves time. Sixteen wondered a little at this but she was too much in awe of the Queen to disbelieve it. “I’ll try it when 1 go home,” she thought to herself, “the next time I’m a little late for dinner.” “It’s time to answer now,” the Queen said, looking at her watch. Open your mouth a little wider when you speak, and please to come a little closer.” “I only wanted to see what the garden was like ” “That’s right,” said the Queen, “Only when you say ‘garden,’ — I ' ve seen gar- dens, compared with which this would be a wilderness.” Sixteen didn’t dare to argue the point, but went on : “And I thought I’d try to find my way to the top of that hill.” “When you say ‘hill,’ ” the Queen interrupted, “I could show you hills in com- parison with which you’d cal l that a valley.” “No I shouldn’t,” said Sixteen, surprised into contradicting at last. “A hill can’t be a valley you know. That would be nonsense.” The Queen shook her head, “You may call it nonsense if you like,” she said, “but I’ve heard nonsense compared with which that would be sensible as a dictionary. Sixteen curtseyed again, as she was afraid from the Queen’s tone that she was a little offended. The Queen soon continued. “You seem puzzled. Speak in French when you can’t think of the English for a thing — turn out your toes as you walk, and please to remember who you are!” So the Queen really thought her some one! Sixteen felt pleased and was even beginning to smile a little to herself when her pleasant thoughts were interrupted : “So you intend climbing the hill! But do you know what’s required of you first?” “No — o,” Sixteen hesitated. “Can you do addition?” the Queen asked. “What’s one campus two suspen- sions -|- three class cuts -|- four fines -j- five chapel cuts?” “I don’t know,” said Sixteen, “I lost count.” “She can’t do addition,” said the Queen. “Can j ' ou do subtraction? lake a privilege from a class: what remains?” Sixteen considered. “The privilege wouldn’t remain, of course, and the class mightn ' t remain, and it would lose it’s temper so that wouldn’t remain.” “Then you think nothing would remain?” asked the Queen. “I think that’s the answer.” “Wrong, as usual,” said the Queen. “If you really do expect to climb that hill you’d better go look up the Flunk Chaser and get him to tell you his story. I’ll send for Tweedledee; he’s just the one to take you. Don’t mind if he recites to you on the way though. It ’s a habit he has. By the way, can you recite or sing? If so, do so.” Sixteen began to sing without any hesitation : Breen had a goat, And boo hoo, it died. Boo hoo, it died. Boo hoo, it died “Stop! Stop!” cried the Queen, “that’s far too sad. Recite something! Do you know ‘How doth the ?’ ” Sixteen crossed her hands, as if she were saying lessons and began to repeat the verse, but her voice sounded hoarse and strange and the words didn’t come as they used to. How doth the little busy bell Hold over us such sway? When children fail to heed that call t A fifty they must pay. How loud it rings upon the breeze, Now watch the children run. They can’t see how in paying fines, They’re having any fun. “Goodness, that’s all wrong,” said the Queen, “try again. Try again!” Sixteen began “The younger classes hurried up all eager for the treat, Their banner hung, their songs they sung. Their shoes were clean and neat, And this was right, because j ou see, ’Twas Freshman-Sophomore Meet.” But ’twas no treat, For we were beat. But that made next year’s victory sweet. Then class day came And spread our fame Throughout the realm they say, Because no other class had thought To have its own class day. The Junior Class of N. R. C. Went walking hand-in-hand. They laughed like anything to see Old Mac Namara’s band. “If they could only shout out loud.” They said, “it would be grand.” “Enough!” cried the Queen. But poor Sixteen could no more have stopped than Father Halpin’s clock on St. Patrick’s day, so she went on mechanically, as if wound up — The Freshmen to the Sophomores (Before the year was o’er) Paid back with interest their old debts. As through each house they tore, Upsetting everything in sight, Then rushing for the door. “How quickly all the Freshmen work,” Just hear the poor Sophs roar. “Oh, making up our rooms again Is such a beastly bore! You won our cup on May day, What could you ask for more?” “I know it, but ’tis our last chance To even up the score, To-morrow will be Tassel day And we’ll be ‘Fresh’ no more.” Snboortf Sixteen found herself in a large new building. There were doors all round but t hey were locked, and when Sixteen had been all the way down on side and up the other, trying every door, she walked sadly down the middle, wondering how she was ever to get out again. How she longed for the good old times of cottages, and how she longed to get out of that dark Hall to wander about among the bright flowers; but she could not even get her head through the window. “Even if my head would go through,” thought poor Sixteen, “it would be very little use without my shoulders. Oh, how I wish I could shut up like a telescope. I think I could if I only knew how to begin.” For, you see, she had accomplished so many out-of-the-way things lately that Sixteen had begun to think there were very few things indeed impossible for her. Had she not beaten the younger Antipathy in basketball? And had she not likewise beaten both the older and younger Antipathy in baseball? “That’s a bad habit I have,” said Sixteen to herself, “praising myself like that — guess I’ll take a climb to the turret for a look at the Sound.” Just then a gust of wind blew a piece of paper down the hall and Sixteen hastily gave chase. “You’re a very nice child,” called a voice after her. When she had finally captured the paper and brought it back, there stood the Dutchess. “Thank you, my dear,” said she, “now you may have Xam every other day.” Sixteen couldn’t help laughing as she said, “I don’t care for Xam.” “It’s Xemptional Xam, very good English Xam,” said the Dutchess. “Well, I don’t care for any to-day at any rate.” “You couldn’t have it if vou did want it,” the Dutchess said. “The rule is Xam to-morrow and Xam yesterday, but never Xam to-day.” “It must come sometimes to Xam to-day,” Sixteen objected. “No, it can’t,” said the Dutchess, “it’s Xam every other da} . To-day isn’t every other day, you know.” “I don’t understand you,” said Sixteen. “It’s dreadfully confusing.” “That’s the effect of living backwards,” the Dutchess said kindly, “it always makes one a little giddy at first.” “Living backwards,” Sixteen repeated in great astonshment — “I never heard of such a thing.” “But there’s one great advantage in it, that one’s memory works both ways.” “I’m sure mine only works one way,” Sixteen murmured. “I can’t remember things before they happen.” “It’s a poor sort of memory that won’t work both ways,” the Dutchess remarked. “What sort of things do you remember best?” Sixteen ventured to ask. “Oh, things that happen the week after next,” the Dutchess replied in a careless tone. “For instance, now,” she went on, “there’s the Night Raiders — They’re being punished now and the trial doesn’t even begin until next Wednesday, and, of course, the crime is last of all.” “Suppose they never commit the crime,” ventured Sixteen. “That would be all the better wouldn’t it?” the Dutchess said. Sixteen felt there was no denying that. “Of course it would be all the better,” she answered, “but it wouldn’t be all the better their being punished.” “You’re wrong there, at any rate,” said the Dutchess. Were you ever pun- ished?” “Only for breaking rules,” said Sixteen. “And you were all the better for it, I know!” the Dutchess cried triumphantly. “Yes, but then I had done the things I was punished for,” said Sixteen. “That makes all the difference.” “But if you hadn’t do ” The Dutchess ’ sentence was never finished, as a melancholy voice broke in: “O classes come and walk with us, The A. B.’s did beseech. A pleasant walk, a pleasant talk On subjects within reach. Of rules you never hope to keep, Now take a warning each!” “Don’t look around or pretend you notice him,” said the Dutchess in a whisper, “or he’ll keep it up all day. O, goodness, he’s beginning again.” “Who is it?” Sixteen managed to whisper to the Dutchess. “The Mad March Hare. He must think we’re having a tea party and he’ll keep on and on if I don’t set him to work so ” “The moon was shining on the roof, Shining with all its might. He did his very best to make The darkest corners bright. And all the clans were glad because They had no other light. The moon was shining sulkily, Because she thought the nun Had no business to be there After the day was done — ‘It’s awfully mean of her,’ she said, ‘To come and spoil the fun!’ ” Before he could start off again the Dutchess spoke: “See, it’s time for you to go push out the tide, besides the furnace has gone out and the tennis court ” There was the sound of a hurried retreat, and the Dutchess and Sixteen joined in a hearty laugh at the March Hare’s hasty flight. “Now that we’ve gotten rid of him, what shall we do?” inquired the Dutchess. “Well, I’ve been working on this invitation,” Sixteen explained, holding out a paper to the Dutchess. “Maybe you can help; it must be in rhyme, you know, but I think the feet are pigeon-toed or something.” “Let me see!” said the Dutchess, peering over her glasses and reading aloud. “You can really have no notion how delighted I should be If j ou’d come with me to Pepperday to a little dance and tea. Will you won’t you, will you won’t you, won’t you join the dance?” “It’s all about as curious as it can be,” said the Dutchess. “I think maj be you’ve repeated too often. That reminds me, stand up and repeat, ‘ ’Tis the voice of the sluggard.’ ” “How she orders me about and makes me repeat lessons!” thought Sixteen. “I might just as well be in class.” However, she arose and tried to repeat it, but her head was too full of the circus that she hardly knew what she was saying, and the words came very queer indeed. ’Tis the voice of the Freshman, I hear her declare, You’ve made me dance round like an old grizzley bear, I’ve eaten your peanuts but can’t stay to tea, So now I’ll run upstairs if you’ll excuse me. “That’s different from what I used to say when I was a child,” said the Dutchess. “I know it,” Sixteen replied, “but I guess I must be very sleepy because” — here she found herself walking down the Lady Stairs and through the foyer and then — she found herself in the beautiful garden among the bright flower beds, at last! 3n tfje ©arben “I know what you’re thinking about, but it isn’t so nohow — Contrarywise, if it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn’t, it ain’t. That’s logic.” Sixteen awoke with a start. “Oh, thank goodness, I was only dreaming,” she said to herself, then looking ’round: “I wonder Avhere everybody is!” “Sixteen, I want you to meet Tweedledee,” said the Queen, appearing suddenly, and starting away again, leaving Sixteen staring stupidly at a tall, strange man. “If you think I’m wax works,” he said, “you ought to pay, you know. Wax works weren’t made to be looked at for nothing,” and he laughed subtly. “I’m sure I’m sorry,” was all Sixteen could say. “It’s all right — far better to be stared at than ignored entirely. You like poetry?” Ye — es prett} well — some poetry,” Sixteen said doubtfully. “But would 5 ou mind showing me which road leads up the hill?” Tweedledee smiled gently and began again, “What shall I repeat to her? She really shouldn’t have me quote poetry to her until her fourth year.” Here Sixteen broke in, ‘If it’s very long,” she said, as politely as she could, “would you first please tell me which road ” “As to poetry you know, I can repeat it as well as other folks if it comes to that.” “Oh, it needn’t come to that,” said Sixteen hastily, hoping to keep him from beginning. “The first piece I’m going to repeat was written entirely for your amusement,” he went on, without noticing her remark. Sixteen felt in that case she really ought to listen to it, so she sat down and said, “Thank you,” rather sadly. “ ‘To the out-of-door world,’ the Quarterly said, With a toy in each hand and a crown on your head, Let each May day child, whoever she be, Come and frolic and frisk like a small child of three. Then fill up ) our glasses as quick as you can, And join round the tables so spick and so span. Some will have coffee and some will have tea, So welcome old May day with thirty times three!” “How do you like it?” inquired Tweedledee, beaming, “it has all the elements of romantic poetry, the call of nature, the- — but how did you like it?” “Very much,” said Sixteen arising hastily, “but I really must be going. The Queen told me once long ago that you’d take me to see the Flunk Chaser to hear his story. You see, I want to climb to the top of the hill and ” “Quite right, quite right,” Tweedledee replied amiably, and Sixteen thought to herself, “He has a good heart.” They hadn’t gone very far when they saw the Flunk Chaser in the distance, sitting on a rock, and they could hear him singing as if his heart would break. “The time has come the Juniors said, To talk of many things. Of teas and gowns and class day tax, Of Junior Week and rings. Of where to hold our promenade, And many other things.” Sixteen pitied him deeply. “What’s his sorrow?” she asked. “Oh, he always gets like that after exams are over. During them, there’s no one more popular and then the minute they’re over he’s left absolutely alone.” The Flunk Chaser looked at them with large eyes full of tears, but said nothing. “This young girl,” said Tweedledee, “wants to hear your story; she’d like you to help her as she is trying to climb to the top of the hill.” “There’s little to know,” said the Flunk Chaser with a sob, “when I was young I went to school. The master was an old Turtle. We used to call him Tortoise.” “Why did you call him Tortoise?” asked Sixteen. “We called him Tortoise because he taught us. Really you are very dull.” Sixteen felt ready to sink into the earth. “I took the regular course,” the F. C. continued. ‘What was that?” Sixteen inquired. “Reeling and Writhing, of course, to begin with,” and then there were the differ- ent branches of Arithmetic — Ambition, Distraction, Uglification and Derision. Then there was Mystery both ancient and modern, then Drawling, Stretching, and Faint- ing.” “And how many hours a day did you do lessons?” asked Sixteen. “Ten hours the first day, nine the next and so on.” “What a curious plan !” exclaimed Sixteen. “That’s the reason they call it lessens,” the F. C. remarked, “because they lessen each day.” This was quite a new idea to Sixteen and she thought it over a little before she made her next remark. “Then the eleventh day must have been a holiday!” “Of course it was,” said the F. C. “And how did you manage the twelfth?” Sixteen went on eagerly. “That’s enough about lessons,” the F. C. interrupted. “Now, do you think you can find the road up to the top?” “Yes, I think I see my way clearly now, thank you,” said Sixteen, “you just have to keep on going. Thank you very much for your help,” she said aloud, and to herself, “now to run up the road, climb the old wall and then to be a Queen. How grand it sounds.” A very short but rather steep run brought Sixteen within a few feet of the old wall and she threw herself down to rest on a lawn as soft as moss. “Oh, how glad I am to get here,” she said aloud, “but I think I’ll rest a little while before trjfing to get over the wall.

It was a golden crown. “Well, this is grand!” said Sixteen. “I never dreamed I should be a queen so soon. How the years have flown. But I’ll tell ) ou what, your Majesty, she went on in a severe tone (she was always rather fond of scolding herself) it 11 never do for you to go running about whistling any more. Ladies have to be dignified, you know !” She got up and walked about rather stiffly just at first, as she was afraid that the crown might come off. (And entre nous, it did come off quite frequently during the year, especially on Amateur Nights and birthdays.) “Now that I’ve had such a good rest I think I’ll try to climb over that wall— once on the other side the hill top’s very near.” So saying, Sixteen started toward it. “If I only had a pile of books to stand on,” she thought, “I might get a start. Why, I’ll never be able to get over; it has such a smooth, hard, surface” — and Sixteen fell back in dismay. “Some people have no more sense than a baby,” said a voice from the top of the wall. And looking up, Sixteen saw a Conundrum trying to keep his balance on the high, narrow wall. “It takes method to climb this wall,” he continued, “You can’t skim over like the bird of Apenzelle but you have to dig in, get a footing, half way up place both feet on a Klapper and a Locke and lo, you’re over before you know it. There’s glory for j ou.” “I don’t know what you mean by glory,” Sixteen said. “Of course you don’t— till I tell you. I mean there’s a nice knock-down argu- ment for you!” “But glor) r doesn’t mean a nice knock-down argument, Sixteen objected. “It means just what I choose it to mean, neither more nor less, when 1 use a word,” said the Conundrum scornfully. “And if you don t believe me, 1 11 be traded for the cook.” “The question is,” said Sixteen, “whether you can make words mean so many different things.” “The question is,” said the Conundrum, which is to be master, that s all. Sixteen was too much puzzled to say anything, so after a minute, he began again “They’ve a temper, some of them, particularly verbs; they’re the proudest adjec- tives you can do anything with, but not verbs — however, I can manage the whole lot of them! Impenetrability! That’s what I say. “Would you please tell me,” said Sixteen, “what that means?” “.Now you talk like a reasonable child,” said he, looking very much pleased. “I mean by impenetrability that we’ve had enough of that subject and it would be just as well if you’d mention what you mean to do next, as I don’t suppose you mean to stay here all the rest of your life.” “That’s a great deal to make one word mean,” Sixteen said in a thoughtful tone. “Since you are so clever at explaining words, Sir, would you tell me the meaning of the poem ‘Mont Bijou’ ?” “Let’s hear it,” said the Conundrum. “I can explain all the poems that were ever invented — and a good many that haven t been invented just yet . This sounded very hopeful, so Sixteen began the first verse, “And now if e’er by chance I put My finger into glue, Or madly squeeze a left-hand foot Into a right-hand shoe, As rushing out to be on time I nearly always do, Then every ten times out of nine I think of Mont Bijou. And I weep, for it reminds me so Of those good times I used to know, Those wintry days out in the snow, When coasting down the hill we’d go With heart as well as cheeks agio. Then when the chilly winds would blow, We’d sit around — the lights turned low, Or gaily dance and sing, or sew. Oh dear old days of long ago, I miss them, girls, don’t 3 ou?” “That’s enough to begin with,” the Conundrum interrupted, “there are plenty of hard words there ! I leave you to solve them. Good-bj e.” This was rather sudden Sixteen thought, but after such a very strong hint she felt it would hardly be civil to stay, so she held out her hand. “Good-bye till we meet again,” she said as cheerfully as she could. “I shouldn’t know you again if we did meet,” the Conundrum replied in a dis- contented tone, giving her one of his fingers to shake. “You’re so exactly like other people.” “The face is what one goes by generally,” Sixteen remarked in a thoughtful tone. “That’s just what I complain of,” said the Conundrum, “You face is the same as everybody else’s. The two eyes so (marking their places in the air with his thumb) — nose in the middle, mouth under. It’s always the same. Now if you didn’t have such an even face, if only you had two eyes on the same side of the nose, that would make you a little odd.” Sixteen waited to see if he would speak again but, finally, as he took no further notice of her, she said, “good-bye” once more and getting no response to this, she quietly walked away — but she couldn’t help saying to herself as she went, “Of all the ’ She never finished the sentence, for at that moment a heavy crash shook the garden from end to end — the wall had crumbled and there — her achievement had been accomplished ! She had reached the top of the hill and lo ! there was the whole wide world spread out before her. “A tale begun in other days, When Autumn suns were glowing; A simple chime that served to time Our college days fleet going, Whose echoes live in memory yet, Though envious years would say, ‘Forget !’ And though the shadow of a sigh May tremble through the story, For happy college days gone by, And vanished Spring-time glory, It should not touch with breath of bale The pleasure of our four ) ear Tale.” ni — H ■1 “ - L flP WP I | lip | ft 3l v v ft, , IP J i | j| 1 -L. 1 jgmeteen is txteen ' £ Class oll Eirene Barber Ellen King Mary Barrett Irene Komora Adele Brady Helen Langdon Florence Breen Anne Loughlin Maria Cendoya Ruth Lyman Natalie Collins Dorothy Lynch Anne Creed Jeanette Lynch Helena Cuddihy Virginia May Marion Curley Clare Mitchell Gertrude Doherty Charlotte Mulligan Rosalie Donlin Helen O’Brien Elizabeth Farmer Adele Packert Rosa Hafey Frances Petty Alida Hamilton Charlotte Rider Anne Hamilton Vera Roche Mildred Hurley Marie Rooney Anne Hynes Monica Ryan Gladys Judge Natalie Scully Cornelia Kelly Anne Smith Elynor Kieran Ruth Sullivan Belle Wheeler HE realty can’t help taking herself so seriously, for though she is out- wardly all curves, yet she is realty built entirety on the square.

She has the most marvelous memory (fl for facts, and, what is more, she is always generous with her amassed learn- ing. “Breenie” has never been known to fail anyone who has appealed to her for help, even at that valuable and fatal ninth hour before exams. She is not only willing but eager to share her knowledge, and we have to laugh when she looks lugubrious, shakes her head, and says, “I know so little.” “Flossie” has one great failing. She doesn’t care about going to chapel, and the fifty-cent fines she paid, especially in Junior year, would have made many trips to the Exchange and Spa possible. In our Freshmen and Sophomore years Florence was a faithful scrub on the basketball team, and the morning of the meet, when the alarm clock went off — But that is another story. MARIA CHRISTINA CENDOYA M ARIA is dark, Spanish and handsome. During her college course she has been known to possess a dual personality, Marie the clever and witty and Christine the “I’m so blue.” She became famous in Freshman year through her fruit salads and her ability to enter- tain. Since then she has paid the penalty by heading most of our ;j V J Refreshment and Entertainment Committees. Cenny” is a member of “Props and Paint,” and those who saw her “Caliban” in our mid-year play will realize that her dramatic ability is far from small. Also, she possesses a great head for business and is Business Manager of this pleasant volume. Maria knows a good deal about printing and getting out song books, so she can quote prices by the hour (not that she really does it, but she could), and Maria could sell anything. This was proven by her Sophomore year auction sale, when she disposed of the famous desk. We began by saying Maria was handsome, but this remark must be qualified. She isn’t at her best in examination week. I I ANNA C, CREED NNE CREED is Sixteen’s Mark Twain. In what gales of laughter A she can always keep us with her dry-wit tales and themes! The funny side of everything appeals to her and she can make it appeal to others, too. But Anne, despite her love of fun, is one of our blue ribbon students. Corfditions are an unknown quantity to Anne and ninety per cent, and over are given numbers. Anne goes in for everything with good will and boundless enthusi- asm. She played on our victorious baseball team both Freshman and Sophomore year, and was always ready to play scrub basketball “just to help the team,” although it meant getting home long after dinner was over. They say, “Tell me your friends and F1J tell you what you are,” and we can’t say more for Anne than that she is Irene Koniora’s best pal. HELENA AUGUSTA CUDDIHY ELENA may be small in stature, but she is large in deeds. It took a good many of us almost two years to really know Helen, for she makes friends rather slowly, but once made, keeps them fast. There is an old saying about still water, and Helen’s early stillness we found was but proof of her depth. In Junior year, she brought glory to Sixteen by winning the inter-class speaking contest and in Senior year by playing the leading, and, in fact, only “lady” in the “Tempest.” She is likewise president of our Philosophical Sorority, Alpha Alpha, so you see the old proverb is very true. There is nothing Helen relishes more than a joke, be it on herself or someone else, and we have yet to discover a time when she is not eager and willing to help along any fun that is afoot. Then, too, Helen has acquired a reputation for her sincerity and her ability to keep a secret. But we have forgotten, there is a time when Helen’s sense of humor fails her. Beware of her on Tuesday mornings when the chapel bell is ringing. MARION AGNES CURLEY w y ARION is one of the three Scranton girls who came to us in Fresh- man year. Appendicitis removed her for a few months, but she y came back to us. And after that all went well. She is an expert at mathematics and Latin, but no one would ever suspect that who i FV wasn’t in her classes. “Curley” has a peculiar partiality for cut-in y dances and we have gratified this favorite sport to the best of our ability. Aside from this, she is a quiet little person, with curly hair and a pretty complexion. She has been a resident of “9” for three years, so that may be the reason for our considering her quiet. Marion does her work with an air of indif- ference that would stagger anyone, and more than one despairing classmate envies her her ability to combine both work and play in such a nonchalant manner. GERTRUDE M. DOHERTY ERT” is versatile — one just has to admit that. In Freshman Year she acquired a reputation for “common sense,” and that same com- mon sense is a saving grace when Gertrude enters the Realm of Fancy. She is a fine business woman and is usually 1916’s repre- sentative in all dealings of “1916 vs. The Biltmore” ! From this realistic plane once she enters an English class, “Gert” promptly dons the garb of the Idealist. I might say Litera- ture is her forte. She once wrote an essay on the “Rich and Poor” that won a repu- tation for herself and, incidentally, for the class, with the Professor. She is a never- failing help in trouble to the Quarterly Editor. Most any time this stock conver- sation may be heard : “ ‘Gert,’ an article by 9:15 to-morrow?” “Well” (do ubtfully) — but next day as unfailing as the clock comes “Gert” plus the article ! A keen sense of humor is hers by birthright — that we know — but we haven’t yet accounted for her ability to bluff artistically, her amazing self-possession nor her ingratiating smile! ROSALIE M. DONLIN ® N our Freshman year, Rosalie had two upper classmen sisters, which fact alone would have made for distinction, but besides this, she always wore white kid gloves to the village. This last marked her as a girl apart. As W !l time went by, however, and we grew to know her better, we found that :.£■ jj! we need not have feared her, for no one was ever more ready for any kind . of a lark than “Roe.” Rosalie is very charitable and tender hearted. She is president of the “Christ Child” and gives a perfect imitation of the old woman who lived in a shoe shoe when collecting or giving out garments. But when we’ve said all this we’ve left out her most striking characteristics, her ready wit, her inimitable way of telling a story with many interruptions for laughter, and her hide-and-seek dimples. ELIZABETH M. FARMER HE was a quiet little body in Freshman year, but with an amazing amount of independence even then ! She is practical, and so neat, with a passion for mathematics and sewing that we can at least appreciate ! But the most remarkable thing about Elizabeth is her ability — phe- nomenal, almost — to ferret out a piece of news from even a recluse. Everybody flocks to Elizabeth’s Senior parties — where, besides being royally entertained, one is sure to be in a flashlight picture! Elizabeth can always be depended upon and, lest this shall seem too formidable an array of virtues, we won’t tell her even now how much we fear her practical jokes nor the vengeance she takes in tickling! Elizabeth has many friends both in college and out, and if you doubt the latter you should just see the number of advertisements she’s gotten from “a friend of mine.” ROSA HAFEY Q HEN it comes to seeing clouds on the horizon, Rosa has an ex-ra} eye which looks right through the clouds and sees only their silver lining. She has a happy, sunny disposition and a contented one as well in spite of the fact that she has been Class Treasurer for two years. Rosa is also very generous; anything she has which you could possibly make use of is yours for the asking. Hers is a nature which gives freely but is slow to ask or look for anything in return. Rosa came to us from Massachusetts; perhaps that accounts for her Puritanic conscience, her sense of duty and her industry. In whatever group you find her, and no matter what “juicy” bit of gossip is being disclosed, you will almost always find her busy. She is rather timid and very sensitive; perhaps it is because she feels the smallest slight or unkindness to herself so keenly, that she dreads hurting the feelings of others and tries to spare them as much as possible. For four years we have never seen her really angry — never heard her storm at anyone; she becomes indignant at times, but never gets really angry. But for all that — on those rare occasions when Rosa does speak her mind, one glimpses a power of ob- servation and soundness of judgment truly remarkable in one of her gentle, retiring dis- position. ALIDA HOPE HAMILTON ITHIN two days from the time she arrived at N. R. C., “Babe” knew every girl in college. This was because she is by nature friendly and warm-hearted, — one who lives fully and demands of life the most it has to give — and after four years we must say she has been given it — not life, but the most and best of everything College life had to offer. Though her impulsiveness and impetuosity often led her into diffi- culties, still the very lovableness which is the keynote to her char- acter gets her out of every scrape. For “Babe” is lovable. You just have to like her — there’s no getting away from it. Perhaps another reason why we like her is because she is so charitable. She always finds the best possible motive for an action and accepts that as the probable one. You would consider an hour in “Babe’s” company well spent, for she is a host in herself, loves a good time, and always has a good story or a funny bit of college gossip on hand, and her inimitable way of telling it always insures her an interested and appreciative audience. We can’t withhold a last picture of “Babe” as our Year Book Editor-in-Chief. We used to think of “Babe” as caring more for a lark than for responsible duties, but when Senior year brought her the burden of editorship, “Babe” proved herself Respon- sible (with a capital R!) and met each new and unexpected difficulty with unfailing pluck and courage. Also “Babe” is one of the cleverest girls in the class, with a penchant for poetry, and is herself a poet of no mean ability. As for basketball and tennis, well, “Babe” has won glory in that line too. ANNE FAITH HAMILTON S EAM and Sancho Panza have always seemed to us to be alike in one respect — their ideas regarding sleep. “God bless the man who first invented sleep” is alike Beam’s and Sancho’s grateful prayer. When “Beam” is awake she has the dynamic force of two girls. Early in her college career “Beam” identified herself with dramatics and now is Presi- dent of “Props and Paints.” She played basketball and baseball for two years, and tennis for four and is manager of our tennis team. In Freshman year, she starred as a girl of Ideas and she hasn’t exhausted her claim to that title yet. In her daily programme, “Beam” lives up to the Seven Works of Mercy — with one exception. She feeds the hungry, gives drink (cocoa de luxe) to the thirsty, comforts and counsels the sorrowful and the doubtful, but — oh, my dears, can you ever imagine “Beam” bear- ing wrongs patiently? We have told you a lot more about “Beam” when we tell you she is one of the most democratic girls in college. MILDRED HURLEY ILDRED HURLEY’S greatest assets are her deeply, darkly, beau- tifuly blue eyes and her happy disposition. The eyes, they say, are the windows of the soul, so that accounts for “Mill’s” pretty ones. She is the sort of girl who does the duty that nearest lies and never goes about telling people that she has done it. “Mill” said her mother was more popular with the college girls after one visit than she after four years, but we didn’t tell her that the reason for her mother’s instant popularity was “that she was so like ‘Mill’.” Mildred has been a staunch supporter of the Mandolin Club for four years and is a pillar of the sodalit) ' . She has one great fault. She can’t resist the temptation to make up original jokes, but then they’re generally pretty good. She is a literary editor of this worthy volume and a cheerful, dependable one she has proven herself. And, to prove her versatility, we mustn’t forget to mention that she played baseball and basketball for two years. ANN HYNES NN stood out in the first dark days of Freshman year because of gV her gay red and white blazer. She stood out the remaining days ' vJ of her college course because of herself. “Gluck” is one of those rare mortals who have as many moods as Jacob had colors in his V. coat, varying from the practical, hard-working, common-sense Ann Y of the Annales Business Staff to the wild, joyous “Heintz-Anne” who sets us all in gales. Perhaps that is why she is so interesting, for no one can be quite sure just which Ann will be uppermost. We have often tried to figure out the reason for Ann’s popularity, especially with the underclassmen, for she is awe-inspiringly cold and indifferent to them — and we’ve always come back to the same conclusion that it is because she is herself and therefore (as the syllogism says) lovable. Ann has one great fault. She never can quite make up her mind just which of two things she should do, and having consulted all her friends in turn and gotten their views — does what she pleases. Early rising is her bete noir and she calculates weeks ahead just which nine o’clock class she can cut to “get in a good sleep.” Besides these important facts, Ann is chiefly noted for tact, oranges, and her unfailing expression “D’y mind.” LADYS came in February to help swell the ranks of our Freshman class. For two years she was a commuter from Brooklyn, but in J Junior year decided to take a room in “9” and be with us perma- [ k J nently. This decision enabled us to know her better. She joined V Vir 5n “Props and Paint” and was first a prompter in the midyear play and later an actor in ’’Love’s Labour’s Lost.” Gladys has a sense of humor that bubbles out continually. She is an ardent suffragist, and possessing as she does remarkable argumentative ability, is greatly feared by the “Antis.” Gladys is inclined a little to be a doubting Thomas, and rarely lets a remark go by unquestioned. She has a most amazing fund of general knowledge, perhaps for that very reason. So you see, Gladys makes a very interesting and entertaining com- GLADYS M. JUDGE pamon. ELLA KIERAN UR earliest recollection of Ella is the fact that she used to arrive exactly fifteen minutes late every morning for the 9 o’clock class. She continued to practise this delightful habit for three years. Now in her last year she has become a staid resident of cottage “23” and we see more of her. Ella is tall, dark and distingue. She has an air of tantalizing indifference that makes one want to know her better, and when one does, one is not disappointed, for Ella is true blue. She has two marked failings — a real love for “History of Education” and a marked preference for Loew’s and the “Exchange” to the campus. ELLEN T. KING E knew her for a leader from the time she stood up at the first class meeting and told us “how to do it” according to Parliamentary Law. From the very beginning she has made her personality felt — and what a forceful, earnest one it is. You may like her strongly or dislike her just as strongly — you cannot overlook her. Ellen is very outspoken (sometimes uncomfortably so), but as straight as a die and as unchang- ing. She is quick to make up her mind and the side she chooses is sure to have a large following because generally “there’s a reason” for what Ellen be- lieves — and a good one at that. But Ellen does not spend her time talking of her opinions; she is of the kind who do things first and talk about them afterwards. She organized the Current Events Club for the two lower classes in Freshman year. In scholarship she ranks among the highest in the class. She holds the Presidency of the Sodality. Ellen is always cool and collected, and never loses her head. In view of these facts is it any wonder we chose her as our chief to lead 1916 in her crowning year and represent our Alma Mater as well? It was because we felt her to be a representative girl in every respect. IRENE C. KOMORA t r — r i UNLESS you know her or have known her, you can never realize ; what a jewel Irene is. She looks very righteous and she is, but J also is as full of merriment as any one. True to the best that is in her, and deliberately seeing only the best in everyone else, she is at the same time a delightful companion and a staunch friend. She J will stick to you through thick and thin just as tenaciously as she sticks to that basketball when it comes her way. And that reminds us, she is a basketball player of unusual power and has won her numerals and Varsity letters. She is no grind, yet she is the delight of the faculty and the good-natured recourse of the rest of us who are more inclined to dally. But all her accomplishments fade when contrasted with her greatest quality — she is a real, true friend. L] ■ 1 1 ■ LJ ■j LJ| ■ □ u □ m ■ ■■■ JL ■ _ ■ ■ ■ ■ j u ■ ■ j ■ ■ ■ ■ L ■ 1 _ ■ j JL HELEN K. LANGDON ELEN K.” was famous as a dancer and basketball player through- out the four years of college, but the zenith of her fame was reached in the Senior mid-year methods exam. Helen handed in her book at the end of one hour (the rest of us spent five) and passed with flying colors. This incident is very characteristic of Helen. Early in her career she earned the title “The Girl of ideas.” We confess we cannot always utilize her ideas, but she has them just the same. Naturally, she was sadly missed for the first semester of Sophomore year, when she left us for Barnard, but with February Helen returned, never more to roam. She has a sense of humor that is all her own. Instead of being discouraged at her loud wall paper in No. 9, she said, cheerfully, that it would save investing in an alarm dock, and later was heard to tell condoling friends that it woke her bright and early each morning, saying, “Good morning, Joseph.” Helen has four obsessions: basketball (you should see her play guard), dancing (did you see the dance she directed in the “Tempest”?), Gertrude Stine (“a wet hen is nervous”), and Loew’s (she has a pass!). The only time she loses her temper is when someone stands up and hides the screen from her view at the movies, and then she merely says, “Dear friend, I am annoyed.” ANNE LOUGHLIN A NNE is easily one of the prettiest girls in the class, although she herself seems to be supremely unconscious of the fact. Her beau- tiful hair, long black and silky, could secure her a position adver- tising some “before and after taking” tonic (the “after” part, of course), and her complexion is certainly the “pink” of perfection. Anne is very frank and outspoken. She doesn’t like a thing merely because “they say” it is wonderful, but can always back her opinions with some reason. She is of an inquisitive turn of mind, and is rather studious, quiet and reserved. She does not show her affections or preferences readily, but they may be all the deeper for that very reason. Anne is by nature bright and happy, although she sometimes lets herself be over- whelmed by clouds of despondency, when everything and everybody wears a gloomy aspect to her, and we lose sight of the real Anne. However, these “glooms” are very few and far between, and for the most part Anne shows herself possessed of a great deal of common sense, a true and generous heart and an unswerving loyalty to her friends. RUTH LYMAN “ o HE most sincere girl in college” some one said of her in Freshman year, and now in Senior year, we can truthfully say that one of Ruth’s most outstanding characteristics is still her sincerity. She is tall and dignified and can wear a regulation collar with perfect savoir-faire. She has a tendency to keep her own counsel and a reserve that sometimes even now we are wary of breaking. All these qualities, together with a natural efficiency, made her our Junior President and Vice-President in both Sophomore and Senior years. Her ability to write short stories with the popular “psychologic element” is simply tantalizing! And when she forgets where she put that story — well, the “Quarterly” simply has to wait till she finds it — or, rewrites it! Ruth is blessed with a sense of humor and is especially clever at repartee. DOROTHY LYNCH OFTLY come and softly go — that is “Dot.” Now that characterization would make some people appear rather negligible, but not so with Miss ( Lynch. It is with her an indication of force and power and not the lack of these qualities. She is one of those quiet students who never bores you with a show of excessive knowledge, yet she has a remark- 9 ably clear and well-stored mind. If she has one characteristic more enviable than another it is her sangfroid around exam. time. Nothing disturbed, nothing daunted, she faces them all — all, that is, in which one cannot get an exemption. And she has a delightful habit of smiling easily that gives her a most pleasant manner. In short, she is a very sunshiny little person to have JANET LYNCH Ij-rrf, ANET LYNCH and merriment are correlated (as we say in filrffl Methods). Wherever Jane is the laughter is sure to be. Even when oP!,! ' the halls lie deserted and silent in the gloom of study hour, there will iW arise a sudden shout of laughter and the sound of many doors quickly opened. Then we know ’tis Jennie out “to rest the young girls’ minds I and give them a little recreation,” and never was Solomon in all his glory arrayed like J. Lynch. If by any chance she remains at home from 7:30 until 9:30 she becomes absorbed either in Van Dyke, Noyes or Browning, and is lost to the world or, if more actively inclined, gilds her chairs (so that she can never sit on them again), dyes her dresses other colors, or re- hangs her pictures. But we haven’t yet mentioned Janet’s night-hawk tendencies. She can always be encountered in the wee sma’ hours, pillow beneath arm, seeking where she may lay her head. And she can lay it where’er she choses, for Jane is very popular. She loves company, but company loves her more. CLAIRE ROSEMARY MITCHELL r jp LAIRE was 1916’s first President, and when that energetic, restless mob j f did not drive our gentle little President to distraction nothing will. It f V is due not a little to her good leadership that we can all look back to the sunniest of Freshman years. She is blond, and just the “nice armful V size.” You will see that this is a dangerous combination when we tell you that Claire can pout adorably! Claire is also rather domestic in her tastes, you should see her sew! She is reserved. She never puts herself forward nor offers advice unless she’s asked, but when she does, you are surprised by her keen insight and her ability to read character accurately. If you are fortunate enough to be admitted past Claire’s gentle reserve, you find loyalty and true-blueness and also — Rosemary — that perverse imp with her bubbling apprecia- tion of the ridiculous and a most irresistible giggle. Sorry this does not include cooking. rwwwww HARLOTTE came to us with her hair in a braid and a large, gay- colored ribbon adorning that braid. She seemed such a little girl then, but she gained so much poise and dignity that in Sophomore } ear W e 1 Y hardly recognized her. Also Charlotte has a voice. This partly ac- ) J C counts for the fact that she is now both glee club president and choir V. mistress, and very busy these offices keep her. Charlotte ' ‘hitches her wagon to a star” in exams., and, generally, reaches that star (or somewhere in the nineties, anyway). She is a member of “Props and Paint” and because of her splendid voice always has the singing parts awarded her. Charlotte has strong convictions and the courage to stick to them. She is a little reserved and a trifle over-sensitive, but only with people she doesn’t know well. CHARLOTTE MULLIGAN (l RACTICAL,” you would call her, and you would be “clear, cor- 1 Th) rect, conc se an d complete.” Perhaps it is for this reason that ffcy she was made Treasurer of the college in her Junior year. Helen || is one of the most generous-hearted girls in our class and the most _ loyal of friends. She is very fond of the “movies,” and, just as T- ' she has her own particular seat in class, so she has her favorite ' r place in Loew’s, where she may be seen twice a week. We never can think of Helen without thinking of Ruth, for they have been devoted friends from our earliest Freshman days. For four years Helen has played “David” to Ruth’s “Jonathan,” and that has made it difficult for all of us to know Helen as well as we would like. HELEN HARRISON O’BRIEN OR months she has dreaded the publication of this innocent book, and now F S«| we shall not disappoint her. Born in Brooklyn, Adele’s greatest fault is T,il ' her love of playing Filipino. Unfortunately though, we can never sepa- rate the forfeit from her, but her laugh she gives freely. Once hearing it, you could never after doubt her sense of humor. “Pack’s” skill is mani- fold. She plays the piano, sings in the choir, shines in class for ninety per cent., and is a frequenter of Loew’s. Also she sings “Mavis” dra- matically. Her rendition of this charming ballad, by its pathos almost drove her room-mate to suicide. Aside from this, she is a good, warm-hearted chum, and has that all too rare gift of enjoying a joke on herself. We hope she will not disappoint us now. ADELE C. PACKERT FRANCES PETTY o O the world at large she responds to the name of “Frances ’ but t0 er friends, and she has many, she answers to “Frank.” Frank just suits her, too, for she has that rare quality to a marked degree, and that accounts for the reason we all listen so attentively to her “candid opinions” at Truth Parties. Generosity is another of Frank’s most marked characteristics. “Ask, and thou shalt receive,” is her motto. She is passionately fond of children, fresh air, and athletics. In our Freshman and Sophomore years she played forward on our class teams, threw the baseball farthest in the outdoor meet, and started the early morning walking club. Also, she plaj s the piano, sings well, and is a graceful dancer. So you can see Frank is versatile. But don’t believe her when she tells vou she can write verse! CHARLOTTE S. RIDER rls always seem to arouse a chivalrous aiselves in others? Not knowing the tell why we feel this sense of “protec- lot that “Carlotta” needs it — oh, no! tie person. At Truth-Parties she is y, for she is dark and petite with deli- entranced White — our photogra- girl of ideals — pretty high ones — and she believes Carlotta’s” gentle wit and raillery make her a delight- well, she has that all too rare trait, answer we ve never been able L | tion due” towards Charlotte, U JT 0U k er an intrepdic always accorded the “t. l.” p cate coloring and a profile that quite pher. Also she is a in making those ideals concrete, ful companion ; but if perhaps you’re a bit blue, an “understanding heart.” We only wish that many could know Charlotte as a few do. m i i “ ; ... ■ ! □ M ■ U ] u HJ n ■1 i n n n ■ □ [I ! •• □ □ Hal VERA ROCHE ’ ERA belongs to the convivial type : easy-going, fun-loving, and loyal. She is very independent of the opinions of others and goes on her own sweet way, caring little whether others approve her actions as long as they seem right to herself. If there is one thing Vera loves more than another it is an argument, in which she always takes the ‘other” side, just for the sake of arguing. In Freshman year she showed a great fondness for romantic literature, and wrote wonderful themes abounding in sentiment and romance. However, she set aside this charming diversion at the end of Freshman days. Although her class standing has always been high, Vera has never shown an over- fondness for work, but lately she has surprised us by setting aside certain hours for study and refusing to depart from these no matter how tempting the alternative held before her. Music and art are her hobbies. She sings in the choir, is a member of the Mandolin Club, and plays the piano with no small skill. She has the honor of being one of the art editors of this worthy volume, so I need say nothing of her artistic ability — it speaks for itself. OLDEN hair and dancing slippers seem to best characterize Marie — not that she is always dancing, but, somehow, she seems so airy- ( J fairy that you expect her to be. And, be it said, incidentally, | k ' £ jf Marie is a born dancer. She loves it. There is one remarkable v thing about her, too, the way she manages to get in at exactly 9.04 rrrriy ) in the morning. If you want to hear a situation described vividly and drolty, get Marie to tell you about it. She always has lots of experiences to tell — she’s one of those people to whom things “just happen.” But then sunbeams are always dancing their way into strange places and circumstances. MARIE ROONEY LD RELIABLE” is one of “Mon’s” nicknames, and that in itself tells a good deal about our literary editor. Monica can always I | be depended upon, and if you have ever been on a committee l V v her, you know what a joy that is. V f If “Mon” had lived in Salem witchcraft days, she would have been in great danger of death at the stump, for she has ' a black magic way of accomplishing all her work and still having time for frivolity of any description. To hear her care-free, spontaneous laughter echoing through the first corridor, no uninitiated person would believe that the chief weight of the “Quarterly” rested upon her shoulders. The pen may be mightier than the sword, but the basketball in “Mon’s” hand is just as mighty. She handles either equally well. So, you see, she is one of the best all-around girls in our class and has the most boundless and ardent enthusiasm per- haps for that very reason. Monica is a rare combination of frivolit) and seriousness, athletic and literary prowess, true sincerity and sympathy, and strong warm friend- ship. And if you want a testimonial of her unselfishness upon all occasions, ask the editor-in-chief of Annales. MONICA D. RYAN NATALIE SCULLY B ID you ever watch a bud unfold little by little, allowing you to look deeper and deeper into the heart of it, until you became suddenly con- scious that the outward compactness had given way to delightful soft- ness? That is the history of Natalie in these four years. Gradually we have come to see deeper and deeper into the real Natalie until, al- though we have by no means reached the bottom, we realize what won- derful possibilities are hers. Not that Natalie has ever deliberately revealed herself — she is not that kind — but we have learned to translate her. And speaking of translations, if the mysterious terms of metaphysics and philosophy are too much for you, just go to Natalie and w T ith a “Why, yes; don’t you see?” she’ll set it all clear for you. We have heard many vague rumors about this colleague, but we are not certain of their reliability. For instance, we hear that she plays basketball very well. That may be — Natalie never told us so. But, of course, as we said before, Natalie wouldn’t. You have to watch the unfolding process to know what lies beneath. BELLE WHEELER ELLE is a very quiet little person, always composed and cheerful and possessed of a certain dignity and independence of her own. She is very gentle, yet beneath this easy-going exterior is hidden a strong will and self-confidence which generally get her what she wants. Belle rarely talks of herself — and never of her neighbors. She is an excellent listener, and you may rest assured that what you tell to Belle you tell to Belle alone and not to her friend and her friend’s friend. Belle keeps her own counsel — she has learned that the only way to keep a secret is not to let anj ' one know you have one. She is small, graceful and musical. She is President of the Mandolin Club and one of the best dancers in the class. Belle is also a good student, a pleasant companion at all times, and has never been known to have a grouch. She has lots of determination and patience and seldom “quits” a thing until it is done. Add to this her unfailing good nature and her willingness to help anj one in need of assistance, if it is in her power, and you have a fair idea of “Little Belle Wheeler.” lies t Wit Jforget Names now Missing from our Class Roll Bessie Barry Frances Murphy Marion Booth Margaret McCarthy Louise Collins Margaret McDonald Catherine Creagh Bess Russell Amalia Gianella Florence Ryan Alice Jackson Anne Talbot Mary Jones Helaane Van Wyck Elizabeth Kilday Josephine Woodlock You’ll hear it at the cradle, You’ll hear it at the grave, Wherever Senior hearts are true Beneath all flags that wave.

College of JSteto od)elle Our own Catalogue College Calendar 1916=17 SCHOOL REOPENS SEPTEMBER 19 Holidays Washingtons Birthday: It may come any time during the school year, according to popular vote. Founder s Day: Saturday is taken away from us and then Monday is called a holiday. Thanksgiving Vacation , Nov. 22-27 : The faculty needs a rest so we are sent home to be out of the way. Easter Vacation , May 22-31: We have to invest in Spring finery so as to look a credit to the college. We’re given 10 days to seek for bargains. Faculty The faculty consists of professors. They could write a book on How to Keep Healthy.” They are never absent because of illness even for one day during the term. Foundation We were founded in 1904. We are only eleven years old, but large for our age and still growing. We outgrow our accommodations just as you do old clothes. Location The college is situated in New Rochelle, only a short distance from the village and the beautiful Sound. It depends upon your finances which one you choose. Each is equally enjoyable. Equipment There is a Campus, the Castle, the Residence Hall, “Gym,” and cottages. The best thing about the Gym is the number of stairways. It is always possible to dodge the Registrar if such procedure is deemed wise. Rooms If you are fond of cross-country walking, get a room in a cottage. It means rising a little earlier, but this is compensated for on Spring days by having a porch to sit upon. We have city or country life. All bills are sent home. But have constantly at your disposal a reserve fund. You never can tell when the prof, will discover that there is a Livy Trot, Books I to XLVI, published. Scholarships If you are ambitious and studious you may win one ; you may also found one if you are rich. Program of Studies After four j ears, you get a degree A.B. or B.S., whichever you desire. You learn many useful things not on the list of prescribed studies, i.e., how to cook, make crepe paper hats, varnish a floor, conceal tack holes, play basketball and tennis, write songs, develop a sense of humor at all costs, and the use of pockets in school dresses. College Courses Eighteen hours of work are required. But it is wiser to take twenty. Safety First! Repetition of courses given free of charge. Many students take advantage of this opportunity. Societies I here are any number of them. Join them all and in your write-up in Senior year they will say you are an all-’round girl. Your parents will be proud of you. Discipline Discipline is maintained at any price. The price is usually 50 cents for the first infringement of rules. But self-reliance is developed at all costs. Costs are usually financial. Keep rules according to your allowance. Social Life On the Campus. There are various functions throughout the year. Among those present are very few men. Off the Campus. Loew’s is on Main Street. The bill is changed twice a week. Stock Company plays what-was-on-Broadway-three-years-ago in Mount Vernon, a short trolley ride from New Rochelle. The Spa, Woman’s Exchange, Huylers, O. X. O., and Riker’s supply refreshments of any and all descriptions. These places are popular on days when the mail delivery is unusually heavy. A jitney ’bus line furnishes sight-seeing trips at a reasonable cost. Pelham road affords excellent opportunities for automo- biling. Htgjjt ersie! I “My daughter,” and her voice was stern, “This thing at once tell me, And truly or else pay the fine, What time did your light I see?” II The maiden answered prompt and clear, She minded not avenging fate; She could do Math, she had no fear, “Oh mother, ’twas a quarter of eight!” III (For those who Arithmetic cant do — A quarter of eight, you know, makes two.) The moral of this litle little rhyme, — Math in time will save a fine. 0nx ton Peatttube 1. Blessed are they who prompt for they shall be prompted. 2. Blessed are they who study and are termed grinds for knowledge sake for they shall obtain exemptions. 3. Blessed are they who come early for they that are first shall be in the last row. 4. Blessed are they who go to Mass thrice a week for they shall receive a cross of gold. 5. Blessed are they who hold no office for their days and nights shall be free from care and grinding worry. 6. Blessed are they who flunk no finals for they shall not start at the postman’s whistle. 7. Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall reap popularity when the Meet is over. 8. Blessed are they who abide by the rules for they shall grow wealthy. JH German Clas dc Ein Madchen nach dem Village ging At fiinf Uhr, ach so late! Sic war ein little Freshman-girl Und wollte keep ein date. Das Madchen von dem Village kam Und furchtevoll war sie Sie hat ein ‘inner-sense’-iveness That campused she would be. , Und als die Mistress stern sie sah Das Herz within her sank Die Mistress oped her mouth to speak Und sagte “Gott sei dank!” “Du bist so late fur supper, Kind, I fear es hungert dich Ich kept dein chicken heiss for you, Come now und setze dich.” Unu “war die Movies good to-day?” Und “is it raining yet?” Dann “Ich denke dass du tired sei, So geh right straight zum Bett.” “Und Ich will tell dein teachers Du warst excused bei me, Though Werk ist auch ja very gut, Health must come erst” sagt sie. Die Freshman-girl seemed slightly dazed Im Hande fiel ihr head, Die Mistress dachte dass she slept Aber der shock hat killed her dead. en ©on’t£! (From one who knows!) 1. Don’t order your Colonial costume more than two months in advance! 2. Don’t object if the Freshmen corner all the easy chairs — you can’t reason with an infant. 3. Don’t admit that you were ever in the wrong. Be firm and argue it out. 4. Don’t mourn if you are campused. It is your one chance to make others do your errands in the village. 5. Don’t mind if the “Quarterly” is so crowded you can’t be waited upon. Stand by the door and smile at those coming out with their purchases. It is just as profitable. 6. Don’t try to cook coffee in a test tube in chemistry. It can’t be done without detection. 7. Don’t try to hide behind a thin girl, when your visit is disturbed in quiet study. S. Don’t worry if you get a condition. It is the best way to break into print and the public eye. 9. Don’t try to use a handkerchief for a respectability. An A. B. is sure to get you if you don’t watch out. 10. Don’t announce Amateur Night and expect it not to be changed. The uncertainty if half the charm. THE PEERAGE an ttjc a.P’U (©it J9ou! I Little lonesome Freshies come to New Rochelle to stay, To study Math and Livy and grow wiser day by day; To learn the regulations, which to break an’ which to keep, To play basketball an’ tennis, an ' dust her room an’ sweep. An’ with all the other Freshies when the supper hour is done, To set around in recreation an’ have the mostest fun A-list’nin’ to the wild tales the Juniors tell about — An’ the A. B’ll git you Ef you Don’t Watch Out! II An’ one time a Sophomore ud alius laugh an’ grin, An’ make fun of ever’one both out of class an’ in, An’ once when she was campused she said she didn’t care, An’ went off to the village ’cause she couldn’t take a dare, An’ thist as she got back again and turn’t to run an’ hide, They was two great big Black Things a-standin’ by her side, An’ they snatched her to a meetin’ ’fore she knowed what she’s about, An’ the A. B’ll git you Ef you Don’t Watch Out! L They always come back could be said of our fif ty cents’s. 2. Patrick had stayed in the “Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia!” 3. Jim’s eye hadn’t been crooked ! 4. We didn’t have to take our trunks with us! 5. We could have “fraps” sent up from the Spa, at night. 6. Familiarity did breed exempts. 7. The Year Book contained all we planned in the beginning. 8. We didn’t have to take “those cities.” 9. One could whistle and still be within the Pale. 10. Monica hadn’t gotten appendicitis so she could have written these! igeto mocfjelle Collctjr primer WB. §. a.

Who knows — this “ruff staff” may help you to support a family some day. It has helped others, why not you ? Gfljje jHanboltn Oh see the mandolin ! What a pretty mandolin it is — and what delightful music it makes if you take a pick and push it vigorously back and forth across the strings. Isn’t mando- lin music weird — but rather fascinating. What is the trouble with your room-mate. She seems to be going through some very queer contortions? Is she addicted to cataleptic fits? No, she assures you it is merly the effect of your music on her nerves. Some people cannot appreciate good music. But do not be discouraged. Take your mandolin and treat your studious neighbors to a little music. Thej are not troubled with nerves and will doubtless appreciate your efforts. ikckontng Jfmger Ah, see the finger! It is a beckoning finger. Why does the finger beckon so insistently? It seems to be directed toward you. Shall you go up and inquire the wherefore of the beckoning? Oh, no — that would be a great mistake. It cannot really be meant for you; it is merely taking a little morning exercise. If you go up ahd address it, it will have to stop and I fear its owner will be very angry. EoU Here we have a roll. It is a hard roll — yes a very hard roll. What can we do with the roll? It seems a pity to leave it on the breakfast table. Put it in the pocket of you little school dress and take it up to poor, dear Myra, who was too sleep} to come down to breakfast. Perhaps the maid has counted the rolls and will miss the one ) ou have taken and report the loss, but do not let this deter } ou from performing a kind act. If it comes to the ears of the Mistress she will probably call you later in the day and commend you for being so thoughtful. tEfje oo£ §arben What do you think this is? You believe it must be a consumptive ward ? No, you are wrong; it is a roof garden. See all the young girls sleeping out on the roof. What an ele- vating sight. How happy and peaceful they look. Their eyes are closed and several seem to be smiling in their sleep. But whom have we here ; it must be the Mistress re- joicing at the sight of her young charges — joying in their joy. But approach nearer! There is a peculiar expression on her face. She is gazing steadily, fixedly, at someone hung at her feet. Now her gaze has effect; all peace and repose on the roof garden is destroyed. There is much turning and twisting. You would think the young girls were in need of fresh air, — they seem to be very nervous. The gaze continues to have effect. If you return in ten minutes you will see a strange procession consisting partly of girls and mostly of blankets and mattresses, marching and sliding down four flights of stairs. Strange to say they look happier than ever, although the penetrating gaze does not falter. That is doubtless the effect of the fresh air. Cfje Jfiftp=cent $ iece This is a fifty cent piece. Is it not a nice fifty cent piece? See how it shines if you lay it in the window where the sun can fall on it. Take it in your hand. How nice and flat and cool it feels. If you bite the fifty cent piece you will see that it is a good one. It is a very peculiar fifty cents, too. It can vanish at a moment’s notice. If you wish to see how quickly it can disappear, just step into the hall and whistle shrilly several times. Soon you will forget that you ever had it. You should be proud of your fifty cents — it is not every fifty cent piece that can be whistled away so quickly.

Jftnes! (With apologies to Kipling) What makes us fear to raise our voice, what makes us fear to call? What makes us very careful not to whistle in the hall? ’Tis just that warning whisper when our spirits run too high, Look out ! the fines are going to get you by and bye ! Oh the fines, oh the fines, oh the everlasting fines. They haunt you and they taunt you, and they never leave you free, They’re always in the foreground, ) ou can’t lose them if you will, They’re the worst of all joy-killers and they’ll be the death of me. ’Tis they have put so sad a blight upon my youthful joy, ’Tis they have filled my heart with dread which nothing can alloy; But what’s the use of looking glum, of sorrow and repining, When nothing that you say or do will stop the loathsome fining. It’s the fines, yes the fines, just the everlasting fines They seem to have no limit, there’s a new one every day. You may scorn them, you may mourn them, you may say you don’t approve, But in the end just like the rest, you’ll have to up and pay. Wfytvt J|ab e 3 j earb before? As a matter of fact, now, girls.

There came a knock upon the door, A girl came in and said, “There’s a party down in Helen’s room.” ’Twas two, as she went to bed ! Exam it came, her mind was blank, Alas! how great her woes! She handed in her paper, And went her way to Loew’s. YE MONEY QUEENS. THEY GOT IT!

The campus echo with the pleasant sound Of fresh young voices at the chapel hour. No more old Pelham Road shall know our eager, tireless feet Nor lead us down to Hudson Park when lilac boughs hang sweet. II Nor then — late classes over for the day We’ll pause awhile, our books beneath our arm, To watch the sun his warm caresses lay, To bless and keep our college from all harm Unmarked by us the moon will rise in silver glow, Ah, classmates dear, we never knew that we have loved it so ! III What though the whole world keep our paths apart, And though we severed are b) land and sea. Oh, Alma Mater, in each daughter’s heart There’ll be unswerving love and constancy And though the hands which clasp to-day man then no longer reach For Nineteen Sixteen we’ll be true forever each to each. IV So for us who loved our college days so well When twilight shadows lengthen o’er the green The sun will pause a moment just to tell “Ave atque Vale” for old Sixteen And when the snow falls softly on the campus through the night May it give a tender greeting for the class of green and white. g tubent£ Ball, Margaret ’19 3682 Broadway, New York City Barber, Eirene ’16 4517 Ft.
