'42 LIFE Tell me not, life is but an indolent dream, floating down on idle stream. Life is full of vigour, grief and joyg nLife is reall life is earnesttu live! Live to be free, to be pitiedl, to laugh, to cryg to be happy, to be sorrowful, to diet, Never waste a single minute, lest late in life you will regret it. Life is not a period of time, to be spent as a common dime! Life begins with the young, and never matures. Life is the work of a master, not or a reminiscing amateur. M. Bates '45 PEACE When war clouds grey Have passed away And brighter days we see May selfish greeds The hate it breeds Depart,--and peace forever be. B. Adler '45 CLOUDS Clouds go floating eastward Blown by a wind from the West, Fringed by a dying sunset In a world of troubled unrest. J. Fabricius '43 ,fx gixo g'fE!o Ainzihaaii Y ,, -

LONDON 1941 When little Bobb1e's mother died, his Aunt Jane and Aunt Betty took him in to live with them. Aunt Jane was a middle aged woman, with a good na- ture but with poor understanding of children. Aunt Betty who was younger worked while Jane stayed home and kept house. Betty was very fond of little Bobby and they used to have grand times when she would get home from work and on Sundays. Bobby had lived in London with his parents before but they were killed. He was a good little boy, but was used to having everything. He was a smart little boyg when he came to America to live with his aunts, he understood he couldn't have everything he wanted. He made friends with rather an old man, whom he call- ed 'Gumpy'. He lived on the farm next to him. Every afternoon the little old man would call Bobby in for tea and cookies. They became great friends. One afternoon old Gumpy, had a big surprise for Bobby. nOh, Gumpy' please tell me what the surprise is. I'm just dying' to know. Please, Gumpy,hurry up.n Bobby jump ed up and down with anxiety, nwell, if you go over there and take the towel off that basket you will see.u Quickly Bobby ran to the corner, tore off the cover and there it was--the cutest, littlest, puppy you ever saw nGumpy, he is wonderful. How did you know I wanted one so bad, huh, how did you know Gumpy?n 'Well, I know, when I was a little tyke I had me a puppy and he was the best friend I ever had--till you CBBC alongn. 'Gee, Gumpy, how am I ever gonna thank ya.u Gee, Gumpy, can I take him home now and show Aunt Jane? she will love him like I do, and Aunt Betty will be crazy him when she sees him. You know, Gumpy, I had a dog over OVST in England, he was my best friend too, his name was 'Pepper'. I think I'l1 call this doggy Pepper too. Is that O.K.?n n0f course, now run along and show him to your Aunt Jane.n Quick as a flash Bobby was out of the door and stand- ing on the back porch of his own house wiping his feet, because Aunt Jane was very strict about her floors. He opened the door and called anxiously, nAunt Jane, ooh, Aunt Jane, look what I 've got, Gumpy gave him to me, oh 1sn't he wonderful? I'm gonna call him Pepper, because my other dog's name was Pepper.' 'I'm awfully sorry, Bobby, but I hope you don't in- tend to keep him here in this house. Now like a good boy take him back to lumpy and you can play with him as often as you l1ke.' nBut Aunt Jane, Pepper is mine, all mine and I've got to keep him. He can stay with me up in my room and he wont bother anyonw, honest he wont, please Aunt Jane I--- nI'm sorry Bobby, but you'll be going back to school soon, and I canft have that dog hanging around, always under my feet, no, Bobby now run along, take him over to Gumpy, With a depressing look and heavy feet, Bobby carried his little puppy to the door, opened it and disappeared, not to be seen until three nights later when they found
