X Q'c'i'5:l:mom2, EDITGRIAL NE bright morning, early in October two struggling artists joined a theatre guild known throughout the country as the Gray Court Players. Both a.ctors had had some training in the past and now wished to coinplete their studies so that they might go on the higher drainatic stage. As the band of traveling players roamed from stage to stage the two apprentices met with many strange adventures. There were time-s when their a.cting was approved by the master artists, but there were also times when their work was turned down and they were told to try again. Many happy hours and joyous were spent off stage, after the company had presented its stock of plays to each new audience. After eight 1ll011tllS of hard training the longed-for hour arrived. Each actor was given the right to Q11tCI' the professional guild, where the plays were not enacted in small country towns, but in the great the-atre called Life. ' Wfhenever these actors wish to -renew the experiences which they had during the time spent with the Gray Court Players they will turn to this book to see enacted anew that happy year. 9 In - j gyf - L .

Saturday evening a reunion banquet was give11 at Gray Court School, by the class of twenty-seven. The guests of honor were Miss Gray and Miss Porter. All of the faculty 1ue111ber were present, and representatives from all the classes that were in the school in twenty- seven. The banquet was a great success. The a.bove article appeared in tl1e society column of the f'Advocate,' on the Monday following the never-to-be-forgotten reunion. As a inenlber of the class of twenty-seven, I will endeavor to tell you how time has dealt with 1ny school-niates. My fellow classnlate, Kay, had come all the way from Baltimore to be with us. ,Strange to say she and XVinnie Laurie had managed to carry out all their wild schemes which they had made while they were a.t school. 'llhey took a trip to Europe in an aeroplane, rode on a niotorcycle, and went down i11 a diver's suit. There were several other adventures they had, but it would ta.ke too lo11g to tell of them. Kay iinally went. South and settled down in peace and quiet. Laura Falk was no lo11ger just plai11 Laura Jane, but had reached the height of Parisian society and niade a fortune as an interior decorator. To follow tl1is profession was always her secret ambition, and we were all glad to know that her desires 11ad been realized.l Doris Happy and Anne Brewer had both climbed the ladder of fame as portrait painters. Doris carried on her work in Anierica, wl1ile Anne startled Europe with her portraits of the celebrities, such as the President of France, of his cabinet l1lQ1llbCl'S and the King of England. . Dot Clark went out YV est and bought a. ranch, where thoroughbred horses were raised. Dot told us that she had purchased Mabel, and the dear old horse was spending a happy old age on the ranch. Beryl Austin Zllld Marguerite Morrill were Boston society leaders and there was 11ot a. da.y that went by, that their names did not appear in the papers, because of some social benefit they had rendered to their beloved city. 23 , ,K N 'i V ' i 3 ' i ' aiu... Elsie Ganiboa had married a Spanish nobleman and was living at the Spanish court. Vnfortunately she was unable to be present at the dinner. Gray Court had not only given artists to the world but also musicians. Mona Jarrett was a noted pianist and composer while Emily Strawn was celebrated for her sweet voice. Mona played for us and Emily sang and we were all carried back to the good old school days. Betty Hoenig was at the head of a. school for little boys and Ruth Pritchard and Myrtle I-Iovell led Stamford society. Marjorie Kunkle had a marvelous home in the country, where she raised all kinds of flowers and rare specimens of plant life. Hundreds of people visit her in order to see her wonderful collection. Doreen Laurie always wanted to be someone's secretary. Doreen obtained her desire, but strange to say she did not keep her position long, because she married her young employer and they are now very happy. Frances Colton became a. well known ventriloquist. lVhile she was at school she used to startle us with the most unusual noises, but now we know it was for a good cause, so we will forgive her. Helen Walker had gained fame as a. teacher of tap dancing and other kinds of specialties for the stage. Sylvia lVeiller had moved to Boston, where she opened a very fashionable tea house. Miss Austin and her friends frequented the place much to the delight of the hostess. Marjorie Flark had done much the same thing only her establishinent- was in Baltimore, and whenever Kay visited her shop she was just as thrilled as Sylvia in Boston. Betty 'Elphinstone was known as fX1ll0l'lC1l'S most famous designer of ladies wearing apparel. French artists had come to this country to study under her instructions. Josephine Greve returned to her beloved Europe and acted as chaperone and guide for young ladies who wished to visit the continent. Audrey and Connie MacAdam appeared on Keithls circuit in a playlet in which Audrey exhibited her graceful dancing and Connie her skill in acting. 24 f N NX ,X 2, a ll Gladys Simms broadcasted over the radio all the coming a.ttractions on Broadway. Marjorie Eberhardt a.nd Olga Jaffe were members of the House of Representatives. They belonged to opposite parties and Marjoriels attorney Dorothy Pickens settled all their disputes with Olga's legal adviser Ruth Coleman. Cora. St-rother had made her mark as an author. Her greatest work was a treatise on how children should be taught to appreciate classical literature. Lou and Betty Mead were managers Ellld owners of a race and hunt club, where they specialized in dog and horse shows. Gray Court had grown so large that it. needed several directors of athletics, so Margaret Pearce and Barbara. Harding returned as assistants. Marie Mallouk was the champion long-distance swimmer of America. Dorothy Jean Hemenway practiced veterinary science at which we were not surprised because we knew of her great love for animals. Royce Budge and Beechie Elphinstone managed a Marionette Theater which is patronized by the children of New York's exclusive set. Douglass Dumbrille followed in her father's foot-steps and became a famous Shakespearean dra.matist. Pauline Ralph was a. missionary to the South Sea Islands. Owing to the great dista.nce she was unable to attend the reunion. Erminie Holstein amazed us by producing successful dramas, which were then pla.ying on the New York stage. Katharine Wfilson and Mary Ann Curtiss directed a large language school, where French was the specialty. Mildred Massee ha.d become vastly wealthy and her love for books prompted her to endow Gray Court with a magnificent library. Jane Seymour invented many useful electric appliances, the chief of which was a pencil sharpener especially recommended for schools. Marilynn Collins and Barbara Colton were holding the doubles tennis clwmpfionship of the United States with Sister Curtiss as their manager, who is kept busy booking exhibition matches. 25 f N yx -' . i-- C9 -as. ' f flf- A.-, ..fQl,.3 1, of i. fyf..-QU Betty Brown was a sophmore in Smithiwhere she led her class. lVe could easily see how this was true because of Betty's scholastic standing while she was at Gray Court. Mary Barrett was studying to be a kindergarten teacher. YVe thought she would be quite a success for she loved children and was full of ideas as to their instruction. Q Gene Ralph was conducting a fashionable beauty parlor in Stamford for the exclusive- use of Gray Court girls. Mildred Gray after her graduation from Gray Court made a trip around the world, and she told us of her many interesting experiences. Billy Curtiss, Raymond Hood, and Richard Thomas were preparing for the colleges of their choice. Billy was going to Princeton, Raymond to Harvard a11d Richard to Brown. Wfe wished them all the success in tl1e world. Among the class of '39 we recognized our young friends Eleanor Barrett, Elizabeth Gillespie, Dorothy Rouse, Faith Mead, Eileen Ralph and Jacqueline Collins. The thought of these children graduating made us wish that we were about to enjoy our senior year at Gray Court. I have had a chance to enjoy a number of other years there foruafter com- pleting llly college course the opportunity came my way to teach those Gray Court children English and I hope that they will be a credit to their school no matter what life work they choose. Thus time brought good fortune to us all, and may it always con- tinue to do so in the years to come. 26 N w X . . Q xx x ll . I, Dyk L I A 1 ll Iflju, A-, I-'1 f.

The sun shed its fading rays on her . young and graceful figure as she leaned 011 the sill and watched the children at play in the street. below. IVhile she was thus being amused by their games, she was startled from her revery by a loud k11ocking at the kitchen door. Springing lightly to her feet she ra.n down the stairs and unlatched the door. On opening it, Rosalind uttered a. cry of sur- prise and alarm, because standing before her was a party of ill looking men clad in gray. Be-fore she could utter a word one of the men who seemed to be the leader stepped forward a11d said, Hhlam, we dun hate to disturb ye but Capin Laws dun sa.id we must habe some food, so here we is and we'd be mighty 'bliged to ye, if y'd give us some. UI will do nothing of the kind. It is hard 8110l1gh as it is to get food, and furthermore I have no sympathy wl1a.ts0ever with the South. I will thank you to leave this house immediately.', lVhile speaking, Rosalind's eyes flashed fire at the burly southerner. Pm sure sorry ye dull sa.id that Mam, 'cause we dun habe to habe food and we're goin' to get it if we habe to use force. Hi! you Jim, ye come here and watch the lady whiles the rest of the men gets the grub. So sa.ying he called the rest of the 1nen and they started hunting for the food, while Jim stood guard over the indignant Rosalind. A few minutes later she saw a tall, you11g soldier enter the gate a11d walk swiftly up the path. Unlike his men, for it was evident from his uniform that he was a captain, a.nd most likely the Captain Laws mentioned before, he was very neat i11 appearance and had the air of a. gentle-man. Although Rosalind could not help admiring him, she could only associate him with the men whom he led a.nd the ever present thought that he was a. hated southerner. . Captain Laws, unaware of the fact tha.t a pair of pretty eyes were watching him so closely, entered the house and was about to give some order to his men XVIIEII his eyes fell 1113011 Rosalind .and her guard. Stand away ma.n,,' he ordered in a. stern voice, what do you mean by treating a lady in such a manner and i11 her own home? Out of here every one of you V' Then turning to Rosalind, he said, Miss, I am sorry that this happened, but 11157 men disobeyed llly orders and I hope you will accept my apology. HYou are very kind indeed, Sir, and I thank you very much for de- livering me out of the hands of those villains. I wish you good day, sirf' So sa.ying Rosalind left the room. - 30 5 xx - - A , I, H fl QDMNW mn Not long after the departure of tl1e Confederates, Mr. Sherman en- tered tl1e room in which his daughter was seated. 'fls it true, he asked, ffthat a party of Confederate rufiians were at this house and that their thief of a leader urged them to rob us and insult my daughter? But father he was not a thief, and he made his men leave, and he did not urge them and .... 44Husl1! child, it is no time to take up for a Confederate even though it is only in jest. Come, Rosalind, it will soon be no place for the like pf you. XVe must away to a place of safety. Chapter 2 Night had fallen over the two armies and the men of botl1 were wrapped in the slumber which comes after a day of unusual physical and mental strain. The whole Confederate encampment was in darkness, except for a few pale glimmers of light shining through the flap of some oiiicer's tent, where the tired but faithful leader planned the manoeuvers which were to take place the next day. Among these conscientious men who worked late into the night hours was Edward L-aws, who, having finished his work, sat musing to himself. His mind ran back several years to the time when he attended a military school. There he had met Ernest Sherman and a friendship had sprung up- between them like that of the two Hebrew boys, David and Jonathan. They had been insepar- able during the four years at the school Zllld had seen each other often after leaving there, but throughout the weary months of war they had not seen one another, one was fighting for the South, the other for the North. It was of Ernest that Edward was thinking and it cannot be denied that Rosalind also occupied a. part of his thoughts. Finally re- alizing that he must have rest, Edward laid his tired body upon -the cot and fell into a deep sleep, not to awaken until the bugles sounded tl1e reveille. At da.wn the long lines of gray-clad men were seen toiling up the steep slopes of Semina.ry Ridge, those war-worn men had faithfully followed their U11cle Robert, as they fondly called General Lee, and they would continue to do so until the end. As the sun began to appear over the hills, another line of men was seen eoming to meet the Southerners. These wore the blue of tl1e Union A.1'll1y. On came the two armies, the men tortured by the rays of the hot July sun which was high in the heavens by the time the third day's battle had commenced., All through that summer's day made hotter by the fire from the artillery, the: men of both North and South fought with a courage that was unrivalled. Near t.he close of the day a sma.ll party of Confederate Infantry left Little Round Top, to force a part of tl1e Third Corps from Devil's Den, ' 314 v v'WW H 1.1.-gf, - -- u -xx,l-'- I up .n', '!,.ffc . L wl1icl1 was opposite the position then held by the South. The leader of this Confederate -band was Captain Laws, but it was almost impossible to have recognized him. His face was covered with powder, and his left cheek was streaked with blood from a slight wound. Slowly he led his men across the space which was i11 later years called the Valley of Death. He stopped now and again to encourage his fa.ltering comrades. Finally, after losing most. of his men, Edward .gained possession of the Den and at the moment of victory, he came face to face with a young northern captain. Edward, my friend P' gasped the northerner, but before Ed- ward could answer, his quick eyes fell upon one of his men with his arm ready to fire. Quickly l1e sprang in front of his friend, and a. moment later l1e staggered backward and fell a. helpless form at E-rnest's feet. Chapter 3 p On the night of the third day's battle, the kind and sympathetic people of Gettysburg, had turned their homes into hospitals where the wounded of both sides were brought by the hundreds, owing to the over- crowded condition of the field hospitals. The Shermans were among those who had opened their homes to the suffering. From evening until late at night. the stretcher bearers ha.d come to the house bearing the wounded 'til nearly every room in the dwelling was filled to its utmost capacity and Rosalind, who had worked unceasingly, was tired to the breaking point. Just as she had made the last round of the house and felt that she could take her much needed rest, she was startled by a loud knock a.t the door. Flinging it open she saw her brother Ernest with the limp body of Edward in his arms. '4Erny! Erny! Oh! how glad I am to see you again-but who is the poor boy in your arms? ff 'Tis Edward Laws, my beloved friend, hasten, Rosalind, and pre- pare a place for him. I greatly fear he is mortally wounded. I will, my brother, if you will but follow me upstairs. Rosalind! said the angry voice of Mr. Sherman, who at. that moment entered the room, '4You will do nothing of the kind. I have heard the name of the villain who dared to rob my house. He shall not enter. I will not have the begga.r here, I tell you, out with him. 'tVVhy, father! 'twould be inhuman to tur11 the boy awa.y. As long as there is a room in this house that belongs to me, I will not turn a wounded man from the door. Come, Ernest! the wounds of your friend must be attended to at once. 77 Chapter 4 The snow lay deep upon the ground a.nd the December sun vainly tried to force its way through the thick clouds. The whole appearance of the landscape was cold a.nd drear. Not a creature was seen to break 32 f' ' 'X I x ' Lvl'-'Ali ,- f,f'L.:ff. '7 1. 39 I the smooth surface of the snow, nor was the-re heard the call of a bird. In the Sherman home on Baltimore Street there was a more inviting scene. A bright fire blazed on the sitting room hearth and sent its warmth to every corner of the room. Rosalind was seated near the fire in a small rocking chair with her mending in her lap and Edward was seated op- posite. He Was pale and somewhat thinner but he had been inactive for about six months. These two young people seemed very much interested in each other. Edward was leaning toward Rosalind, and saying something to her in a low and earnest tone of voice, while she gazed thoughtfully into the fire. Edward felt that he had never seen her look so- beautiful, a.s when she turned toward him to answer a question he had just asked. Her cheeks were flushed and a. smile quivered on her parted lips. Edward, she began, but before she was able to answer her father entered. Captain Laws! he demanded, What right have you, a man who has been conquered in war, to talk to my daughter in privacy? I speak to your daughter, Sir, because of the great love I l1a.ve 77 for her. You have been an uninvited guest here long enough, Captain, and it is time tha.t you should gof' 'tFather,', interrupted Ernest, who had at that moment entered.

THIS LIFE AV ING your picture ta.ke-n is not all fun. Especially when the photographer asks you to sit down, cross your feet at a certa.in angle and look pleasant. If o11e is at all self-conscious, his feet and hands simply won't look graceful and many a blush will cover his face. Then he is asked to lift his face a trifle higher, perhaps a. little more to the right, relax, or not to look so sobe-r. After he, the operator, has posed you to his liking he will say,. Now smile, and after the sliding of the first plate you sigh and fall out of your pose-, much to the conste-rnation of the photographer, who explains that you moved just as he sna.pped it and you must pose aga.in. DOROTHY CLARK. 33 f- ..i'.xl V 1 M- 'Ll J.- 'x YI- BEING INTRODUCED EING introduced is, and probably always will be, a' source of great embarrassment to me. Wfhether the cause is shyness, self-conscious- ness, imagination, or any other such weakness, I am unable to make out. ' Perhaps, some old friends of the family happen in on a. Sunday after- noon. From 1ny room upsta.irs I distinguish some very flowery ejacula- tions which are being cast about such as, UH ow is tha.t dear little golden haired baby of yours, I have not seen her for such a long time, or, I do hope she has not bobbed those lovely silken tressesfi This is my cue. I realize, that in a very short time, now, I shall be called down to- produce much disillusionment before the eyes of these curious people. Sure enough, almost instantly I hear llly 111Otl1QI',S anxious invita.tion hurled up to me from the depths of the living room. Upon gazing in the mirror, I realize, more greatly, what a horrible disappointment I am going to prove. My golden hair grown da.rk, the silken tresses now singed and frizzed by the curling iron, and llly cheeks, once naturally rosy, but now, much berouged,-what a blow! The sickening sensations which I experience while tripping down the stairs are innumerable. They are a mixture of a swift. dropping sen- sation in an elevator, a. shivery feeling that passes through a child just before he speaks his piece, and also the vaca.nt, unnecessary feeling that one usually experiences when he is the center of attraction. Too weak to hold my head erect, and-assume a.n aristocratic and self-assuring air, I stagger down stairs with a jumble of-thoughts dashing about in my brain, with which thoughts, I hoped to impre-ss the critics. Wliatq a. glorious welcome I receive. Much the same as a channe.l swimmer receive-s in New York after his victory, only a trifle different atmosphere. Kisses are hurled about and many approving glances are cast towa.rd me, with more of the atrocious, gushy remarks which I had already detected from above. '4Only a lot of applesaucef' I thought to myse-lf. But even so, it makes one feel so very unnecessary. After a fashion I remember not l1ow, named or otherwise, I was introduced. The ordeal wa.s only a short one, but, while it lasted, I remained amid many a. blush, untalka.tive, hot and then cool, courageous and then fearing. Although nothing is said of the present stage of my ugly aftlictions, school-girlish awkwardness, my overt grown limbs, and clumsy mannerisms, I feel quite responsible for much disappointment, and creep out quite unnoticed. Another rather embarrassing introduction is in the middle of a dance hall floor, when I spy llly partner for the evening coming toward me 34 N 7 XXX v b it M lltl X J, in I ' -JlsA.. 5.. escorting thenice looking blond boy, with the sea. blue eyes, whom I have noticed, has been eyeing me from the stag line. A sudden storm of importance and mortification sweeps over me, as I hope my conquest of tl1e evening is about to be made. I instantly get my feet entangled with some carefree dancer, wl1o never does notice where she is going. I try to stammer something of a. f'line to my present partner to try not to appea.r too elated at the prospective introduction to his blond gentleman. lvhile l1e is still some distance from me, I feel myself beginning to blush furiously. Oh, that i11fe.rnal blushing! Another moment and I hear those long anticipated words, which, in 1ny own Peallll of excitement, sound very shaky Zllld almost unreal. t'Miss ---- . May I present Mr. ---- 3' 'Those words may have been any- thing from onions to gasoline for all I know. However, too fiustered and confused to make much of an i1npression, I blurt out some sort of acknowledgment entirely different fro111 what I had planned. Another second I feel myself caught by two strong arms, and am jazzing and swaying to the r11yth1nic tunes of Black Bottom. Several moments before, I l1ad been talking away at a. great rate, but now, under this new glamour, just when I should be especially inspired by my at- tractive partner, I 21111 absolutely dazed. XV hat S1111 I to do? Just as I am trying to solve this terrible burden of a problem, 1ny pa.rtner comes forth with a very leading question such as, 'fHave you seen the Scandals? Immediately 1ny silly fear a.nd embarrassment a.re driven away as I reply in the affirmative, and also pour forth words, questions, and answers, innumerable, much to 1ny relief. After all, being introduced is nothing to be dreaded, or has any cause for embarrassment, as everyone knows, but somehow or other, in 1ny case it continues to present a feeling of discomfort and uneasiness. And at my age, after so many years, it ceases to be funny. BERYL AUSTIN. 35 Q X x, .

He was a roguish little cha.p, full of fun and pep. However, these qua.lities caused me rathe-r an a.nxious a.fternoon. My neighbor's maid ,had laid some exquisite old Italian laces upon the back terrace to bleach in the hot sun. If Teddy ha.d a fondness for lace, I was certainly unaware of it until that fatal tday when my neighbor called me over to view the ruins. The once beautiful old la.ce was now reduced to shreds and in the midst stood llly young pup gleefully chewing several strings. After assuring my friend that I would pay for the damage, I was forced to dash madly and extract those strings from Teddy's throat to prevent him from strangulation. I tried to re- buke hinr with harsh words, but he wrinkled his nose at 1ne a.nd grinned in his doggie way, so that I could not find it in llly heart to punish him. I dare say he suifered enough from the strings. Donornr CLARK. AFTER THE FIRE DRILL Gray Court School, November 20, 1926. Dearest Peg: You certainly ought to have been here yesterday! XVe had the wildest time and I feel as though I had played one of the leading roles in the 'Tire Brigade or 44After the Battle, Mother, or some such! I reckon you might really 11211110 the day 'Tire Parade Day. Anyway we started off by having tl1e fire alarm and an drill every period so as to get the little children used to leaving different rooms and navigating the stairs. Of course we older girls realize we don't need such things, but we take part so as to help Miss Gray and encourage- the babies. XVhen you get to be fifteen years old you think of a.ll those nice thoughtful things. Well, we all felt pretty expert after wetd had seven periods and seven drills with time out for lunch. I'd fully decided, if the fire alarm rang during lunch to take my chocolate pudding out with me. However, the climax of the whole day came after everyone was in bed! XVe were all surprised with another yffrc drill! Just as I was be- ginning to ll1'G2l.11l of a hundred in French test there came five bells shrilling Quo wonderj! I dashed madly for the window to put it on while my room-mate tore to mt down the li wht. After shoving the right 1 D D D foot into the left arctic and the left. foot into the right arctic and trying 36 ' il ' ll, M --'f?,, lf. Zffynlig to get into llly coat up-side down, I dashed madly from the room catching a view of my room-mate as I went, with her coat on backwards and her toothbrush in her hand. The funniest things happened in the other rooms. Miss Blockburger has charge of the third floor front, and must see that the- small children are waked up and saved! She tore madly i11to Beechy's and Royce's room, pulled on the light, shook Beechy a11d went to rescue Royce, when up jumped Beechy like a flash, yanked off the light and crawled into bed again, determined 11ot to desert the ship, I reckon. Royce wanted to know what all the fuss was about. I11 another room Pauline and Douglass slept peacefully on. I think the only way Miss Blockburger ever must have gotten them out was to yell crackers! Some one said flluthie most likelyj Nto save the turtles and Major first and forgot all about poor Marie who moved like anything but a turtle. Down in the 'fthird fioor back, Miss Tate was having her troubles. She said later she was almost dissolved into hysterics. She flew in to save D. J. and Ge-ne from an early death and thought for awhile all was lost. She shook and shook D. J. and finally picked her up and stood her 011 her feet and then turned to haul Ge11e out. D. J. just calmly crawled into bed again and dozed off X Again Miss Tate elevated her and again D. J. returned to slumber. That happened three times, then D. J. got mad and began to fight for her rights. lleckon she didn't see why she couldn't burn if she wanted to! Finally Miss Tate held her up with one hand a11d clawed around with the other looking for D. J is arctics, which of course were anywhere else. Gene, in the meantime was slowly coming to and clothing herself in her right clothes and mind! Miss Tate says after what seemed a fifteen minute struggle she finally decided to give up trying to save D. J. according to rule, because she thought everyone must be waiting down sta.irs. She didn't want Miss Gray to think they'd gotten too realistic and been overcome by smoke, so she just thrust D. J is left foot into her arctic and thrust the right arctic into her hand, hung her coat o11 her shoulders and half carried her to safety. VVhen the tribe all descended to the hall, D. J. leading fgoing back- wardsj I almost died! If I could only have had a camera. D. J. still looked perfectly furious and half asleep. Marjorie Kunkle was decorated with a great wad of cold cream on her nose. One of the young children was lugging a doll, and most of them looked like what is this all about and what are they going to do to us now. Anyway with all the calami- ties we made a dandy record because Miss Gray was smiling and she said, very good, which means a page full. XVrite to me real soon. I'm so glad you're coming next year. Loads of love, SUE. 37 f X NNY, Y. . v iff ig, 'f..,?y,f'1 SIR ROGER AT A DANCE NE evening I went. to call on my friend Sir Roger de Coverly. I found him in a most- depressed IIIOOLI. On inquiring the cause of his sadness Sir Roger said, HI am very lonely-4tired of doing nothing. How would you like to go to a. da.ncing party, Sir Roger?i' I asked him. To my profound amazement his face brightened and he jumped up exclaiming, Just the thing. It has been many a long year since I've circled a ballroomfi Now that I had suggested it I would certa.inly have to take him. But where? Any place we XV611t his clot-hes would not be app-ropriate, unless, perhaps to a masque ball. For, ever since he had been crossed in love by a perverse widow, Sir Roger continued to wear the style and cut of clothes of those days. A A Suddenly a. thought struck me! King, a boys' institution of learning in Stamford, wa.s giving a masque ball that very evening. There would be the place to take- the old Knight. Coming in with him, in l1is dress of olden days, people would naturally think he was in costume. But would Sir Roger guess? Hoping 11ot, I asked him if I might wear the gown he had bought for his widow, wl1icl1, fortunately for me, he had ,never given her. I arrayed myself in this while Sir Roger donned his bright blue cape a.nd three-cornered ha.t. IVe were ready to start! I brought the car to the door. It was a Ford. The old Knight cautiously entered and away we bounded over the muddy roads. Sir Roger gripped the seat while I secretly laughed. However, I was in a paroxysm of fear as to what lay ahead of me. At length we drove up in front of the old white building where the dance was being held. Taking hold of Sir Rogeris arm I guided him up the long flight of steps. As we entered the bright hall, laughing faces greeted us. Everyone was arrayed i11 fantastic costumes. Of course we were considered just another masqued couple. Nevertheless people turned to stare at Sir Roger, for as they thought, he was cleverly attired. The old Knight was bewildered. As we seated ourselves on a couch he whispered, ' ff 'Pon my word, this is a masque party. We should have come in costume. Never mind, it is alright, I breathed in his ear. A great wave of relief surged over me. The good old soul then did not know the difference. 38 x l . NX . piflllf ,QA-D -f..,f1, 'A ,L Sir Roger was very inte-rested and peered eagerly at everyone that entered. A group of boys entered., swathed i11 raccoon coats. Sir Roger started! Never had he seen such coats! Then when one boy took his off, revealing what is known nowadays as a. tuxedo, you should have seen his consternation. As he had always been very curious, I was 1lOt at all surprised when he strode over to the boys, demanding to know wha.t they were wearing. The group became serious at once, then laughed again, wondering if it were a joke. However, one boy laughingly told him that the coats were animal skins sewed together. lVitl1 a puzzled air the old Knight returned to his former' sea.t. He did not say a word, but stared. Fortunately the orchestra struck up a. waltz, Ellld Sir Roger im- mediately forgot the coats for the time being. Sir Roger was a beautiful dancer and we glided back and forth on the ba.llroo1n floor. Of course all was new to him and he was very much interested. As the last note of tl1e waltz died away, I led Sir Roger to a cha.ir. Knowing that the next dance would certa.inly be a fox trot, I excused myself, saying I would be back soon. The minutes passed. I wondered what Sir Roger would do and say when he saw the modern dance. Couples filed towards the ball- room and I knew the da.nce had started. Five 111i11utes dragged by. I could not remain away any longer. Cautiously I returned. Sir Roger was not where I had left him. Upon hearing a deep laugh I looked around. There in the midst of a. laughing group of girls, learning the newest jazz steps, was Sir Roger de Coverly! The shock was so great, I fairly fell into a cha.ir. Needless to say, from then on the old Knight danced every dance. His winning personality and quaint manners made him the center of attraction. ' At twelve o'clock, Sir Roger was not ready to go home. He informed me he had not enjoyed himself so much since he ha.d been present at a. ball given by the widow. His only regret wa.s that he had not masqued. I finally persuaded him to leave however. This time he did not grip the seat-he was too tired. As I left l1i1n, promising to call on the morrow. I wiped a tear from my eye. He had been so happy in his innocence never dreaming that the guests thought he wa.s in costume. BETTY Rnvnm.

The classic is the aristocrat of the book family. In such works the highest idea.ls, the clearest picture of all human nature, and the thoughts worthy of remembrance a.re found. The classics are true literature which has passed the severe tests of time and universality. On the other hand, popular literature is the plebeian member of the great family. Books of this type appeal, for a time, to the sensational public, but give no 1nessa.ge to the world in general. There is also a ha.ppy medium in books. They do not have to be a pure classic to be classed as good literature. Many books have been ha.nded down whose story and ideals are worth remembering, and yet they were not written by masters such as Shakespeare or Milton. Some works have not been written long enough to prove their worth. Thus we have the book family made up of a grea.t many masterpieces, still more mediocre writings, and the lowest form of books. The good rises to the top, while the bad is discarded and forgotten. Doao'rHY LEE. REFLECTIONS FROM BROADWAY The Big Pm'a.de .. Honeymoon Lane . The Scafnrdevls .... The Night of .Love OH!

They weren't dirty o11e bit, it makes me mad! Anyhow tomorrow is Saturday. 5, 1887.-This morning at eight o'clock I had to go and see what was the matter with the chickens. It was only the old hen who had one little chicken. Those chickens were a bad bargain for me. This afternoon I had to feed the chickens, lug tive pails of water for the dishes, hoe the garden, and then I could play. I had lots of fun. I got Tommy and Stickpin, that's what we call Stanley Pines, to have a swim. It was awful cold. This night I had to lug ten 1nore pails of water for baths, 'cause everybody had to have two pa.ils a piece. 6, 1887.--Bright and fair. I always have to go to church. In church the organ 111ade an awful squeak and -everybody began laughing. - 7, 1887.-Uloudy. Monday is always blue. I have terrible home- work tonight. Then we went out and rang doorbells a.nd ran. I am terribly tired from running or else I would write 1nore. 8, 1887.-Fair and sunny. Nothing ha.ppened today -except we went swimming and I got stung by a bee. 9, 1887.-Heard a noise in the chicken coop this morning. A rat was eating the hents chicken. I asm goi11g to set a. trap for it. I set a trap tonight with a. piece of cheese in it.. 10, 1887.--Gee whiz! Do you know what happened? I caught a chicken in the trap. It was one of the best layers. It saw the cheese and got caught. Dad bought a goat! That means I will have to take care of it. Set the trap again tonight. 11, 1887.-Lugged everything for that goat this morning. Thank goodness it doesn't drink much. Rainy today, but I went swimming. Caught the rat tonight. It was terrible big. I am awful tired. I sat up to write this thing so late.

Not far away I saw two tiny figures all in white and pink. I watched them for a while, but by mistake I made a little noise and, seeing I was awake, they both left. IYhy, how queer, interrupted the tulip, 'ibut that does not tell me why you woke so soon. UI have not iinished yet, and the daisy continued, Then I tried to sleep again, but the thought of those two little things all in pink and white kept running through my head. So that is how I was so wide awake. Now I see, said tl1e tulip, 'ibut who do you think those flg'l1I'ES were? I don't know, but let us both stay awake tonight and maybe we will see them. Do you agree? asked the daisy. '4That is a very good idea, said the tulip. Night came again and the tulip and the daisy were wide awake. Just about midnight, two little ligures in pink and white glided quietly out on tl1e lawn. . 'tThere they are, whispered the daisy, aren't they cute? The da.isy looked at the tulip and saw a very surprised face. IVhy, I know who they are P' cried the tulip, They are the sweet pea sisters. They just love to come out in the moonlight. Let's go and see themf' . t'Ol1! no! no Vi cried the daisy, f'If you do they will go away. Just stay and watch them.

If you eat too much you get too fatf' f'IN'ell, then, said Buddy, HI guess I will not eat too 11111011 any more. Another thing about life is that you should not sleep too much, if you don't want to get fat, said Major. Whew, you would think it was New Years, said Buddy, look at all the resolutions I will have to make. To be healthy, said Major, ffyou want to get a certain amount of fresh air. I '4Ol1, said Buddy, 4'that's one thing I do do for my health. And it is very necessary, too, added Major. x 4'Have you ever been in bathing in the Sound or any other place? said Buddy. UNO, no, shuddered Major, U1 never could think of doing such a thing. Well, that is another necessary thing, said Buddy. I guess both of us can improve and need not talk about one another, said Major. Then let us shake paws on that, sa.id Buddy, which they did and Buddy said he was going home for something to eat. . MARJo1uE EBERHARDT. MY DIARY BY A STRAY CAT Monday The family went away last night. I guess I will have to find a new home. I haven't ha.d a bite to eat since yesterday. I can't 'dnd a.ny stray mice at all. I don't know what to do. I suppose I will have to sleep on somebody's door-step and perhaps they will take me in. S2 73 N X' I' i 'U xl lu . Tuesday . This morning a little girl came out of the house, where I was sleeping on the doorstep, and tried to take me in, but her mother said, Oh, take that dirty little thing away from here? So I had no luck there. I hunted around trying to find some bones or mice, but I had no success. Wednesday 011, this morning a dog chased me, and I thought, surely, I would be killed. c Finally a little girl picked me up, and told the dog to go home. She carried me a long way, and then, when we got to her house, her mother was very cross a.nd would not let her keep me. She was a dear little. girl and she cried when I had to .go away. I must continue my search for a new home. Thursday Something terrible happened today. I was running across the street, because I thought I sa.w some mice run into a. hole, and a great big thing called an automobile, came right up to me, and, again I thought I would be killed. However, I got away safely. But, I am sorry to say, the end of my tail was slightly damaged. A little girl must have seen the accident because she came run- ning out of a house a.nd called me to her. She took me in and after a. long conversation with her mot-her, she told me I could stay. F1 iday Last night I slept on a very soft thing called a pillow. I never, in all my life, heard of one. They are so soft that I thought I was falling through something. They give me the best food here that I ever had. They call it fish. It is most wonderful. I never had any at my other home be- cause, I suppose, the family was too poor. I think these people are very rich. Saturday There is a great big yard here, where I found a very nice plant. It makes one feel very gay to smell it. I believe it is called catnip. The little girl pets me a. lot. I heard l1er say she never had l1ad a cat before, a.nd that she was so glad to have me. S I am so glad I can repay her that way, for all the nice things she does for me. I follow her everywhere, and she always leans down and strokes my back, or scratches 1ny neck. I think she is very nice. 53 . f gr I ' V I 3? if Sunday Today some friends of the fainily Caine. They brought a little dog with thein. I never saw anything so small. The little girl petted it so much, that I thought, perhaps, she niight put nie out and keep the little dog. The guests took their little dog home, and my little girl hunted around and found ine to play with. My, but it is lovely to have a home, where a lovely little girl pets and plays with nie. I ani so glad I aiu not a stray eat any longer. IiA'1'I-IERINIG XVILSON. WHY BROWNIES AND FAIRIES ARE ENEMIES ANY years ago when wonderful things could happen, and brownies and fairies were friends, there was a little brownie who loved a fairy princess. But the fairy didn't like the Brownie, and Duke- I-wee-fee, for that was the brownie's name, knew this and was very sad. So when the Duke was planning to steel the princess, a brownie prince was let into the duke's secret. The prince promised to help him. Then the prince got a. great force of brownies a.nd waged war upon the fairy princess. You all wonder how a fairy could fight, but you must remember that wonderful things could happen. Each fairy was given a wand and a pair of brand new wings. The wand had the power of changing every thing tha.t it touched. The field of ba.ttle was at very large inushroom. In the battle the brownies were defeated and the fairies were victors. You remember that the wands turned every thing to stone, so as would be expected the brownies were stones 11ow. And every now and then you can hear the stones groan and moan when they are stepped l1p011. And you can hear the fairies singing victory songs in every brook and rill.' All the brownies after that were bitter enemies with the. fairies, but strange to say they never tried to get any more fairy princesses. As for the Duke and the Prince they were put in a deep niushroom dungeon way under a stream. JANE Snmioon. 54 ah. ..fi4J..ff.2 - THE BATTLE BETWEEN HIAWATHA AND PEARL- FEATHER EARL-FEATHER came out of his wigwam in great fury. He had heard the war cry of Hiawatha. and was not rea.dy for war. Pearl- Feather cried, Go back, Hiawatha, go back 'or I will kill you as I killed old Nokomis' father. But Hiawatha. said, UI am not afraid to battle with you. This brought the anger swift a.nd thick to Pearl-Feather. Then began the most dreadful battle ever fought. The war lasted a whole summer's day from sunrise to sunset. P At the end of the da.y Hiawatha, tired and weary, leaned against a tree. Suddenly from the branches above ca.1ne the. song of Mama, the wood-pe-cker. It went this way: Aim your arrows, Hiawatha in the crown of Pearl-Feather, there alone can he be wounded. Hiawatha gathered up his three arrows and just as Pearl-Feather was stooping to pick up a stone to hurl at Hiawatha, an arrow came buzzing from the bow of Hiawatha. Pearl-Feather reeled and staggered forward. Then came another arrow swifter and cut deeper than ever in the crown of Pearl-Feather. His knees bent beneath him like rushes. Then came the last arrow in the ,path of the other and soon the great Pearl-Feather was lying dead at the feet. of Hiawatha, the conqueror. Roron BUDGE. . SPRING TIME I I love the spring timelthe best of all, 'Tis the-n we hear the robin call, I love to hear the birds all sing, For then you know it is coming spring. Each tiny bud upon the tree, i Is another proof of spring to me, Each tiny blade of -grass I see, Is furthe-r proof of spring to me. I think the spring time is most dear, Of all the seasons in the year, I love each sign of life I see, Each budding bush and leaiing tree.

Happy's cup for Uppers, a prize without. a doubt. The floor had been scrubbed till it shone like the moon, The chalk lines were ready, each heart beat a tune As places were given and numbers to bat. Gheers for the teams and all this and that. My! How the ball flew from player to base How each runner ran was surely some race. p Points, too, raced along a.nd the end found the score To be Lower Golds 16-95 Upper .Golds 10-4. Jan. 31st.. The Golds were hilarious 5 they had the first games ye The Gra.ys were fightiferous 5 they'd show those Gold dames. So the ba.ll flew again, the runners sure tore. Upper Golds won 6-55 Lower Grays 14-7 the score. Feb. lst. 4' 'Tis a. new month, said the Grays with a hopeful grin, '4Let's turn a new leaf and a few games win. Lower Grays did win to the tune of 10-6 But Upper Grays lost 7-4, what a fix! Feb. 4th. The Lower Golds now began to show fear For those Lower Grays were climbing right up from Ten innings were played to determine the tie Golds gained the day with 14-125 Oh me-O11 my!

Itis ample time to begin winning a few But maybe luck has changed with the score 13-2. Feb. 11th. Lower Grays' 18-9 did not daunt. the Lower Gold manner For there was still a chance for them to win that Gray Gourt banner 14-5 for Upper Golds laid the Gray Team low You'll have to go far to beat that Gray Team as sports though. Feb. 14th. Now the Upper School gathered to see the Lower Teams fight And it promised to be a. sure enough regular ga111e alright. If the Grays won, 'twould be the e11d of the bout, If the Golds won, they'd still have a chance to win out. They all played as they'd never played but once before And the Grays earned their 9-8 for tl1a.t was the score. Thus ended the most eventful of eventful days For the cup went to Upper Goldsg the banner to Lower Grays But one could never tell from the cheering and shout Just who was the victor and who had lost out For every Gray Court Girl is loyal, true and game Whether she loses or wins, shelll cheer just the same.

Sagal 119221 was married to Eugene llosenheek of New Haven, where the-y are now living. This completes the list of weddings for the Class of 1922. Of the Class of 1923, two weddings have already taken place. Rose Adler was married to Leonard Morton Spitzglass in Chicago on January 29, 1927 and is continuing her residence in that city. Louise Ducoudray, Searsdale, New York, the second i11 this class to be married, was inarried after her return from Paris this Spring to J anies C. Penny, J r. of New York City. The third wedding of this class will take place on June 11, 1927 when Margart I. Dodson will be married to Xvllliillll Howard Clark, Jr. at the CO1ll1l1U1llty flhureli, New York City. Mr. Clark will be graduated from Lafayette College on June 10. After their trip they will live i11 Chicago where their apartment is already in the process of preparation. A son was born to Mr. and Mrs. Richard Forbes, XVillia.n1sport, Pa., on February 6, 1927. Mrs. Forbes before her marriage was Miss Marguerite D. Derstine, our former English teacher. Margaret and Sally Dodson have been studying Domestic Science in New York and Sally with her usual energy is also taking niusic. 73 7 NX . V ' Q , The New York School of Applied Design now claims our Eleanor Jones as one of its talented pupils. ' Betty Happy is taking a Secretarial Course and tennis in New York but mostly tennis we hear. She presented a loving cup to the 1927 Schlag cha.mpions. Long Island is one good book-keeper ahead for Rosamond Ryals has a splendid position there. Lucy Oldrin is still a dentistis assistant a.nd Dorothy Muller is designing at Conde' Nast but they are also studying music as enthusias- tically as ever. The Class of 1926 presented the school with an Honor Board for the Lower School to match tl1e Upper School one presented by the Glass of 1925. October thirty-first was full of mystery and excitement for we had all been invited by some unknown spirit from the Hallowe'en world to be in the Gy1n at a. certain time. Of course, everyone was there in costume from Raymond Hood as the gingham cat to Dorothy Lee as a Spanish dancer. Each was given a bag of gold, which was really a bag of beans, and started arou11d tl1e Gym to visit the different booths. The witch's pond proved so popular that it had to close its doors to trade until the pond was filled again. There were many ways of finding out one's future such as cards, dominoes, crystal gazing, a turtle race, which wa.s even enjoyed by Major, witch's broom, apples and even a gypsy fortune teller who had to continue her palm reading the next day. It was surprising how long the bean money lasted but more surprising still was how quickly the time passed for very soon we were having delicious refreshments and then it was time to say good-night. Reluctantly we left the Gym, tired but happy and wishing that Hallowe'en would hurry and come again. CHRISTMAS DINNER Dec. 17 th was another time to be remembered for the girls who had been here for other Christmas dinners knew what kind of a dinner Miss Gray would have and the new girls had heard so much about the previous dinners that they could hardly wait. Everyonels expectations were more than filled for there were more and funnier gifts, sweeter place cards and more luscious food than ever before. 74 I X xx - 1 uh.. A!I.'f, ' A number of Gray Courtls former graduates were present too, which brought back old times and gave the new girls the opportunity of getting acquainted with them. The time between courses was filled in with school songs improved or otherwise by the help of the Various toy musical instruments found at the different places and everyone had a very happy time. ' Each one of Miss Gray's Christmas Dinner parties seems lovelier than the last and it is always diflicult to decide which has the better time, the hostess or guests. i THE BANJO'UKE CLUB y NVhe-n school opened in the Fall and the ro-ll call for musical instru- ments 'was given, it was found that nea.rly every room at Gray Court had at least one uke, banjo or guitar. Some had more than one of each and such thumps, squawks and discords as sounded from basement to roof! Miss Gray then prevailed upon Mr. Theodore Trinkaus of Stamford, to come out and get everybody 011 the sa.me key or tune at least. and what fun it was! Friday afternoons are now looked forward to all week and really the practising between the cla.ss times is not work. Maybe-just maybe-there will be a public appearance of the Gray Court Banjo-Uke Club some of these days. DELAYED MURMURS FRCM THE SIDELINES Barbara Harding with that contagious grin and alert manner is a born dancer. ' From the old countries themselves must have come those peasa.nt children in their picturesque costumes. Who could have put so much pep and snap into a dance and yet have such accurate steps and perfect team work as those clowns except that bunch of girls. No one could guess that the Highland Lassies have never even seen Scotland. The Gypsy Girls certainly portra.yed a. carefree life in their artistic dancing. So happy, so full of fun, so versatile are all of the Gray Court Girls. 75 if xx . - ll I ... T GRAY CGURT RECITAL BY DOROTHY HEMENNVAY AND PIERRE HARROWER November 9, 1926-at 8:15 P. M.

THE XVHOLE LOXVER SCHOOL ROM tl1e very iirst meeting of the Invincibles when the new officers were elected, everybody has been busy. Every girl has tried to pro- mote the spirit of unselfishness and has tried to do something fOr others. Many Saturday trips to town brought toys and material to dress dolls and all kinds of little trinkets dear to the heart of every child. Then near Ghristnias time, red and green stockings were made and filled with the toys and candy a.nd by the time every one had filled at least tiwo stockings and had 111a.de several green linen scrap books, a. good sized box was ready for tl1e Children's Home in Stamford. A bed spread embroidered with animals, flowers, etc., is almost completed and is to be sent to the Children's Wfard of the Stamford Hos- pital to help those kiddies to pass a few dull hours. E And now the girls are busy ma.king a.ll kinds of pretties to help the Alpha Bazaar. Many thanks are given to Miss Gray and Miss Porter who have sup- plied most of the 1na.teria.ls used and also a great deal of interest and enthusiasm for the Club. The Invincible dues will this year as before, be used for the Near East Relief Fund. ' 83 :wi-N - g Ny, A., ' ff.: ,' f A. U 11 6170 Kei' Emily: Do you have to learn it? Laura: Yes. Emily: By heart?
