He sat up, and. thinking about what he had dreamed, said: I hate that girl: she'll never be true to any fellow. He again lighted his pipe and began fishing when sud- denly he heard the splash of oars, and saw a skiff approach- ing. In it was a young girl, and as it drew near he slipped behind a tree and hid, for he did not wish to be seen. She rowed very close to the bank and he recognized-Favorite. The sight of her so surprised him that he sprang from behind the tree with a delighted cry. She turned around for she had passed him now, and at first did not recognize him. He uttered the one word, Favorite, and she then knew it was Jean. She stopped rowing but did not know whether she should go back to him or not, but she did know that V ved him and finally decided to let love take its cou'se. 'In a minute she was by his side, and soon promised to become his bride. RUTH BEi,i.E-Is1.E, '12 ...di The University 5 , Q -.f :i ,' 4 . 4 I .- - A3 A F all 0 ffaxehg 2 :r' o I+ eo sa 2.

HFAVGRITEH 5fQZ2faUwZ wA,'5fQWaPVLQzwAQfQwg HE first day of June dawned bright and beautiful, and Jean Sistolier, a college student, decided. while wending his way toward his boarding place, that a day of quiet fishing would better suit his nature than to be in the classroom. So after breakfast he hurried to collect some fishing tackle and as he passed a restaurant ordered a picnic lunch for one. As he walked along the outskirts of the town, his thoughts wandered back to two years ago when he had been madly in love with Favorite, a little southern girl. He remembered, how they had quarreled and how he had gone away to college without so much as bidding her good-bye. He knew he still cared for her. Oh! how he wished fate would throw them 4 g L. ,ff V, ' wif A 3,395 ' 1 f 1 f ' , Y , W ff X. in fl 'i 12.5 N- ffif, ,111 X f'f'f, P of .

He came at last to the fishing pondg baiting his hook, he threw it into the water. and sat down on the mossy bank. Lazily puffing away at his pipe, he stared idly into the blue water as if he saw there choicest pictures from memory's book. But what caused him to start and look up ? He heard voices in the woods and knew that a picnic party was not far away. He grew angry for he wanted a quiet day all to himself. But after a while the voices died away and he made up his mind that they had gone in the opposite direction. After several times re-baiting his hook. he grew ravenous for something to eat. I-Ie opened the lunch box and ate until he had satisfied his hungry appetite. Now it was midday. As the heat and long tramp caused him to grow sleepy, he lay down upon the cool, fresh grass and soon lost consciousness. As he lay there under the clear summer sky, he dreamed of a laughing face surrounded by masses of beautiful black hair, i G 5 1 is ft -5 f-u f s .' 4 9 1, 'rg-Z?'u v .,,q - tl o . , - .

An attempt wa P s was made to start a high school orchestra but the miserable condition of the piano made practice impossible. We have considerable talent for such an organization and it would be a big help in our school affairs. Let us prepare to have a good orchestra for sure, and a band if possible, next year. The indisposition of the assembly room piano was also quite a detriment to the high school singing. When the in- strument was Hnally brought into usable condition the choru work added tremendous interest to the morning exercises The singing was not started until rather late but the onlooke S I' hearing some of the rousing college songs would not suspic- ion that the musical efforts were any way hampered. We need a new piano. Let us pull together and manag in some way to get a new one next year. C The Carol Club made quite a hit wheneverthey at peared. We are very much indebted to the girls for their assistance i Il the literary meetings and various entertainments of the year. 1 i9 03112011 I A iff' firw Bennington Clifton Johnson Schultz Kaiser Windcrs Graham ' Z .-f I-, ' fi-Al 'S Q ' W J VGA! , a , 4- --:.zZ':':1xh?
