Thou hast the pat and faith o vy HENDERSON, MARGARET, There is a garden in her face. ' Senior Prophecy was the last uig ht of the hovise party. Some of the g-irls in the Class of Nine- teen Hundred and Two had met for the first time since they separated at that commencement. I had never experi- enced a more pleasant visit from my friends than I had from these g-irls. On that nig-ht, as we drew our chairs, sofa pillows, and the like, up to the fire in order to hear about the various and sundry things the girls had been doing-, a feeling of sadness seemed to dwell over the group. Just a few of the girls, considering the fact that there were thirty-seven in the class, were with me; so we decided that each one should tell about those of whom she chanced to know. Lucy, that dear and well-beloved friend, had been with me since the preceding August; so I had no trouble in letting the girls know her thoughts and plans. I very soon found out, however, that they — on their short visits, even — had learned that she was just as fond of Ward as ever. Her tenderness and gentleness had won for her a host of friends, but she thought most of the ones she had known and loved while in school at Nashville. Though five years had elapsed since that time, we all felt that a midnight feast, a gym., a dance, or any of the enjoyables we had at Ward, would have been more than acceptable to us. Ruth Warterfield amused us no lit- tle by telling of her trip abroad. She still spoke in that same quick, witty way. On her trip she met Count , and they had taken quite a fancy to each other. Her sister had chaper- oned the party, and, on seeing the at- Gomt — — i tachment between the two growing so strong-, brought Ruth home. The child says she will never love another, and has sent in her applica- tion to Mary Hughes, Lena Tarable, and Jane Tillman to join their Old Maid Club, which is doing charity work for the Vanderbilt boys. She met quite a number of the old girls on her trip. Miss Fleury had taken a party of girls to Europe dur- ing the summer of the year we finished, and had got up several parties since that time. It was on the last of these trips that Ruth met so many of her old schoolmates. Among them were Emma Berry, Martha Carroll, Kath- arine Hart, and several j ounger g irls, who now call Ward their alma mater. She says that Emma amused them very much in the Hotel de . Emma said the man- ners and customs of the French people were more than she could ever understand. Josephine Munford is teaching- Latin at Vanderbilt. It seems that most of the Delta Kappa Epsilon boys are taking this particular study. Her greatest pride, though, is to tell the story of the cannon, which has had several more coats of paint on it since the year nineteen hundred and two. We had looked forward with the greatest pleasure to having Theo. Scruggs with us, but she and her husband had been offered a position in the fair now going on in San Francisco; and, having accepted it, she could not be with us. Her letters are always so interesting. She writes that managing a giant seesaw is not so bad, after all. She cer- tainly has been more fortunate than we have in one way; for she saw Carolyn DuBose on her bridal tour, and says it is worth one ' s while to go to the fair just to see this couple, if nothing more. She also wrote that Carolyn wore her hair in an immense pompadour, and had changed a great deal from the plain little maid that she was while in school. Alice Borden and Katherine Rothrock went to the fair, and had been staying around the seesaw a great deal. The} ' recognized Theo., and, after a warm reception from her, inquired about the manager of this particular show. On being told that it was Theo. ' s husband, Katherine fainted; and Alice, thinking that they had remained in San Francisco long enough, returned to Tennessee with Katherine. L)(p ' ecb5 to he s Tsmid Optra ' iw er Our beautiful and g-raceful Miss Sims has been studying- for the stage since the fall of nineteen hundred and two, and is now playing in London, at the Drury Lane Theater. Her per- sonal charm adds much to the success she has won, and it is known that be- fore the season is over she will be rec- ognized as one of the finest actresses on the English stage. Lillian Williams expects to be a grand opera singer next year. She is now in Germany, and reports are that her fondest hopes will be real- ized. How I did appreciate having my co- workers on The Iris ' ' — Mary Cheat- ham, Addine Smith, and Agnes O ' Bryan— with me on the occasion of my house party! I know how busy they are with their journal, and was afraid they would not be able to accept the invitation. All know, of course, that I was delighted to entertain these famousgirls— women, I should say. I learned much of their work, and feel deeply interested in their every undertaking. They often spoke of Elizabeth Glenn and the way in which she was received as a citizen into Baltimore. Her husband, being an actor, is away from home most of the time, and she has invited us to spend a while with her next winter. Our talented Fedora has been posing for Gibson. He is now com- pleting a series of pictures, entitled The Gay Young Widow, in which Fedora expects to become famous as a model. She seems to be charmed with the life she is now living. Among the Nashville girls with me was Bessie Dunbar. She is thinking of applying for a position at Ward this coming year, in order to be with those who are able to sympathize with any one that has been disappointed in love. Her story is far too sad to be written where he who runs may read. It is not my purpose, anyway, to bring tears to the eyes of any of ray readers. Suifice it to say her old maid career has begun, and we think her brave not to take the veil. She still seems to all but her closest friends the same cold-hearted, in- different Bessie. When Ruth told us that Sophie was taking Margaret Sangster ' s place in the Ladies ' Home Journal and writing on My Girls and mmmmca lo anMichl kni? Advice to Boys, we laughed very heartily. It seems that during- the winter after leaving school she spent most of her time composing love let- ters for her girl friends. They would simply drop her a note, inclose an en- velope and a two-cent stamp, and she would do the rest. Bessie Hefley and Maud Wilson are in the dime museum of the fair, sitting directly opposite each other. They expect to return to Texas in a few months, at which time the latter will announce her engage- ment. Essie McBride and Nita Rice have gone as missionaries to the Sandwich Islands, and we are delighted to hear of the work going on there. Several of the Ward girls have gone as missionaries, and we are continually hearing good reports from them. I was not at all surprised to learn that Lucile Rog ' ers had gone on the lecture platform. Her main subjects are Woman ' s Rights and Presbyterianism. Anyone wishing to read some of her speeches can find them in the New York World or the Southwestern Presby- terian. Liza Tally, that modest and digni- fied Senior, has solved the question of perpetual motion, and her name will live forever. All the girls are proud of her, I know, and must be delighted that the} ' had at least one unusually thoughtful girl in the class. Ivoraine Meeks, Sadie Peck, Mabel Murray, and Nelly Walsh are in the L3 ' ceum Course. A letter from a friend of mine, now in Ward, says that their prog-ramme was highly enjoyed by ev- ery one. Quite a crowd went to hear them, and the audi- ence really got enthusiastic. Sleight-of-hand tricks, danc- ing, and singing were the main features of their entertainment. Kermdi in 3(1 Lucile Olive lives just a block from Ward, and is perfectly lovely to the girls. The} say she has a beautiful home, and everything- she wished for while in school is now at her command. Skeeter — I mean Annie Nunnelly — surprised us very much by dropping in to be with us on the last day of the party. We were re- joiced to see her and to hear her part of the story. She travels with her husband, who is employed by the Printing Company. I was sorry that she could not have been with us long-er, but, under the cir- cumstances, pardoned her. She says she met Jane Rogers at the hotel in Houston, Texas. Jane is now a book agent, and says no one could persuade her to change her place. Anne Rhea, by no means the last to be spoken of at the time, is now at school in New York. She has seen Miss Chisman frequently this past winter. How I would love to see all the girls of the class personally ! I am so glad, however, that I have been able to have the pleasure of a visit from these girls. They are the same jolly, lively set; and when they left, I felt very lonely indeed (to speak mildly of it). I hope to be with my classmates again soon; for there are few people that I think more of than I do of the girls that were in the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Two. Maude Stebbins.

Thanne wolde it occupie a somer ' s day. It so bifel after the thriddes cours A messenger al braithless, on a hors. Rode to the door and begged admyttance; He to the guestes made obeysaunce. A mirour of glas had he in his hande. Which comen was from straunge magis ' bande, With swish a myght that men maye in it see Al that will happen in futuritie, If that they magicians thene will be. Grete was the eagernesse for to see, ' Ne profiteth til it comen to me. Where they see ther owne smylen faces, I saw dim. mysts and uncertaine places; Whan that distinct these places cam to be, Methought I saw the chancel of a churche, That al with mony flueres was bedighte. That mingled softly with the mony lighte. Soon doun the aisle the bridesmaydes cam. And I right wel perceived them to be Four maydes — Chesnutt, Bryan, Plicque, and Neil; After these the bryde to the organ ' s peal, That I eonora Bailey was y highte; And as I look al faded is the lighte, And once again I see a straunge myste. Whan that these lift, I ' ll tellen if you lyste How in the rairour ' s clear expancion Of a theatre lies the reflexion. Ther syteynge in a box, in gowne of silke. New Yorke ' s belle, ne other than the ilke Miss Bebe Goans, known of old by me: And by hir sat the Duchess Pompadouri, Nee Bessie Whiteman. Noun the curtain rist, Swish grete applause, ne was ther noon, I wist. As Florence Goode, the prima donna, met. Whan Misses Heard and Bergman entered yet. It seemed that the people ■nilde would go. Again the mirour changeth. Soft and low In a convent chapelle burned the lightes, Ther stand two nonnes chanting full softly ' Salve Regina, in the lightes faynte I see the lifted faces, like a saynte. Of Laura Malone and Mar} ' Summye. The tapers flicker and to darkness hye; And whan I look agan, I see the ringes Of a circus; horses fast, as on winges Go pricken round hem. On the back of one Is Alice Carroll, excelled by none. Upon a stande that was y raised highe Is Agnes Bennett; round about hir nighe Lye mony wrythen snaks, both grete and smal, And she by magic arts doth charm them al. Now doth a clown enter most hastily, And speaken out both loud and lustily. That all the folken may but wait and see Rowena Carter daucen gracefully And Gertrude Sokolosky fortunes tell, And promyses that each shal com true wel. Amazed at the fortunes these hadde made, I was nat ware whan the mirage did fayde; Whan I looked agan, did I behold Ward chapelle, so familiar of old. Mr. Blanton was making the announcemeut That Miss Craig for the pupils ' entertainment Wolde now hem addresse on Woman ' s Rightes; Than they clapped hir hands with al hir mighte. And in a chair a former teacher sat in Was John Malone , now teacher of Latin; And in Miss Chapman ' s chair was Clara Park, Who had in literature made grete mark. As in an houreglas, turnt by som hande. From one into another runs the sande. So slowly did the scenes passe from view, And as slowly my mynde received the newe. I saw a lonely stretche of desert vaste, Which did a winding river bynd y faste, Upon whose bank were cities ruined low. That told the tale of splendors long ago; Ther I beheld the famous Gizeh groupe. And close beside the gretest pyramid stoop. The well-known forme of Mary Tom Odil, Who for obscure facts was huntyng stille; Upon a stone nigh hir y sat Ruth Guise, Who ever sketched the sphinxe ' s tender eyes, That she hem for illustraciones myghte Use in a book for mankinde ' s delyghte, Which was by Gail Willis now being y write, In which were mony sayings wyse and witty. Now the mines and alle fayde awaj ' . As when darkness descends at end of day, And in hir place a street both brode and wyde, Ther stande two women unseen by the tyde Of human life ther surging to and fro; And, looking, I saw them to be na mo Than Lucile Satterwhite and Sarah Morgan, With hem a monkey dancen to an organ. Doun the street cam a woman, war and wyse, A sergeant-at-law, who Mary Sanders ys; Near, Bertha Rauscher leads with al hir myghte An army that salvation was y hyghte. Now over street and people passen bye. The mystes com, and then I see on hyghe A marble slab in honor of the memory Of a greten school of philosophy, Founded that mortals myghten 3 ' see Why of al cheese green should preferred be By him who in the moon his dayes spend, And to this wisdom maydes four attend; And on the slab thir names are cutted clean — Misses Morton, Simpson, Cross, and McLean. And now of a battle I see the iielde, A flag I see y floaten in the lighte. Bearing red crosse embossed on fielde of white; Round about it the wounded lay full low. And softly ministering among them go Valery Trudeau with sweet wordes of cheere ; And Ethel Webb, who, wypen mony a tear. Gives hope and comfort to heavy hertes. And now methought that in the glas I see A station in which mony folkes be. A woman see I in the restless throng. Upon whom my gaze was y fastened long; ' Bout hir sholders a faded shawl she wore, And neath hir arm a cotton sunshade bore, A carpetbag, bandbox, and parrot cage. Divers parcels, and a cat of advanced age — Al these she held y claspfed in hir armes; And by hir features, frightened and uncalm. ■or . I knew Amelia Dudley she must be. Not far from hir a widre I trespye A tretys forme in somber robe y clad, A widre ' s veil was heft from hir fas sade; That she once Sadie Warner was I knew, But now Mrs. Smith was the name, I trew, That written was full fair and fetichly Upon the malle hir mayde held ful semely. Now slowly fade the throngen people weye, And that ys all; ther ys na moore to seye. MARTH.-i Stokes Buford. MOTTO : COLORS: Onward. Lavender and White FLOWER : Lavender and White Sweet Peas.

Esther Carter informed us the other day that there is no royal road to learning; even Carnegie gets there by degrees. Shirley Cummins has been requested not to snore so loud in literature on Mon- days. She wakes the rest of us up. Ermine Davis is strictly partial to Allbright people. Why does Sara Douglas persist in liking Chocolate Menier ? It is a well- known fact that Sara has a Will, of her own. We have great hopes of Nell. Fall ' s becoming the poet of the class, especially on alliteration. The following is an extract from her masterpiece: Once a cute, coquettish cow, Gamboling gayly on the green.

Miss Nona Haggard: Well, I had rather two-step off the earth, rattling my grandma ' s teeth, and then go away back and sit down. Miss Edith Haggard, ditto. What makes Clara Hargrave so inquisitive? She has hopes of being a Pryor. Miss Chapman : Miss Viva Harrison, which one of Dickens ' novels had you rather read ? Miss Harrison : ' Rip Van Winkle. ' Eula Jones claims, especially when she is waltzing, that she is a Daughter of the Revolution. RoseLowrie (translating French) : This dainty elephant flapped his wings and flew away. Clara Kelly is suffering from an attack of alarming surprise. All the electric lights were turned on at once the other day, and stayed on for five minutes. Dardis McDaniel said she did not know she was such a ' ' swell ' ' girl until she had the mumps. Margaret McDonald hasn ' t lost her religion reading Milton, as she informed us she was starting out as a missionarj ' in the field of love. Lou Ellen Millard ' s latest accomplishment is sitting in front of the looking-glass painting her own picture. Irene Morgan, who is our bureau of information, said that a wise old saw was one that had cut its wisdom teeth. Teacher: Elizabeth Murray, if your father gave you $ioo and your mother gave you $io, what would you have? Miss Murray: A fit. Mary D.

Miss Jennings (to Sophomore History Class): Know thyself. Mary Tillman (in an undertone to Sara Douglas): Don ' t! The time you would waste would suffice to make many more agreeable acquaintances. Teacher: Does the lesson go down through the fifteenth verse? Mary Tucker — No ' m; it goes down to the sixteenth. Why is Mary Louise Warner so fond of singing Weezie ? Because it is a Meek song.

She comes when the heat of a noisy day Has sunk in the reddening west, And the faint star whiteness of the night Lulls all the earth to rest. II. For the twilight hour is loved by her — My queen with the shining brow ; And at her tread sweet, perfumed buds Emblossom ey ' ry bough. III. But ever she comes when the moon is new, And ever she leans on my weary breast. And in her eyes a nameless thing Which may not weep nor rest. IV. The crown of my queen is gemmed with pearls, Which dim and glow with the passing years; But ofttimes, when she looks on me, I think that they are tears. She brings the breath of meadow flowers, A single rose in her floating hair; And when I search my lonely heart, I find its fragrance there. VI. But ever she comes when the moon is new. And ever she leans on my weary breast. And in her eyes a nameless thing Which may not weep nor rest. Garnet Noei,. Une Conspiration dans les Nuages L y avait une fois une conspiration dans les airs.

Naturellement cliacun devait avoir sa mission a remplir. Quelques-uns se proposerent d ' arroser les levresdes iieurs et des plantes. D ' autres voulurent se vouer a des de- voirs plus materiels. Ils consentirent a donner la nourriture aux le- gumes et a aider a I ' homme de cette maniere. Quand tout 5a avait et decide il y avait beaucoup de ces enfants de cristal qui n ' aimaient pas leurs missions. Enfin, un des plus sages eleva sa voix et dit: Mes enfants, je con- fesse que ce serait sans doute un devoir doux que de soigner les fleurs, r essence des choses creees par le Bon Dieu! II n ' y a rien qui puisse faire plus de bien que d ' assister 1 ' homme, 1 ' image de Dieu! Je pro- pose que nous nous consacrions a la formation de fleurs et de ruis- seaux. Puisque les eaux sont si grandes nos actions passeront in apergues. Toutes les autres gouttes ecouterent et s ' inclinerent en reverence. Alors elles adopterent ce dernier project. Ainsi a chaque enfant fut donne une mission, qui le rendit heureux. Le nuage leur donna sa benediction. Apres ca les gouttes de pluie se dispers rent. Ainsi 1 ' accomplissement de nos modestes devoirs leur donne de 1 ' eclat selon la bonne volonte que nous y mettons et apres tout, c ' est dans le devoir que nous trouvons le contentement de 1 ' ame, du moment que nous nous en acquittons consciencieusement.

One Evidence of Romanticism Among the Seniors n: E was a very fresh Sophomore of Vanderbilt, and she was a very dignified Senior of Ward, and thing-s happened in this wise: Each morn- ing-, a few minutes after the town clock struck eig-ht, somewhere in the vicinity of the new station this tender Sophomore and this wise Senior passed each other on the road to their respective schools. It beg-an thus in September, and these two passed with only an interested glance at one another. Toward the latter part of October, one morning she dropped her scratch book, and he hastened to pick it up. With a quick glance at the name at the top of it, he bowed and handed it to her. He was rewarded with a smile and a So kind of you. The next morning they bowed. Several days after this episode, the Senior had some work which started her to school a few minutes earlier than usual; so she was obliged to pass the station before the Sophomore made his appearance. Lo! what was her astonishment when she reached the gate of her alma mater to find him there chatting in a most friendly manner with one of Ward ' s Juniors, whom she had hitherto considered a pert and forward piece ! She has never since been heard to speak in any but the most glowing terms of the little Junior; for the sweet thing (who can say she wasn ' t bribed?) stopped the Senior, and, with a bright smile, said: I want you to know my cousin. After this the Vanderbiltite started to school in the morning a little earlier than customary, and, upon meeting the Senior, turned and re- traced his steps, by her side, as far as the Seminary gate. This delicious state of things continued until one blustering March morning the wind blew into these two young hearts the seed of dis- cord. Now, the night before, the Senior had experienced a mighty struggle with the allegory of Faust and that of PrometheusVn- bound; hence, on this morning, her temper was by no means a sweet one. At the gate, with bitter words, they parted. The following morning the Senior considered it necessary to take a car. One can ' t possibly walk with this high wind blowing one to pieces so, she re- fleeted. Strange, indeed, she had never before thought of this, and it not the first very windy morning- of the season ! In spite of the gradual diminishing of her pocket money, she contin- ued to take the car each day. One particular morning March had bor- rowed from April a rainy day, and all the habitual pedestrians were compelled to ride. Therefore when, burdened with books, music roll, and umbrella, the most potent, grave, and reverend Senior boarded the car, not a seat was vacant. She was clutching wildly at a strap to steady herself , when she heard a most familiar voice at her side say: Do have this seat! She turned, and beheld the Sophomore. Thanks, but you needn ' t trouble yourself, she replied, coldly, and grabbed in vain at the strap just as the c ar gave a sudden lurch. Down fell the Senior in the recently-vacated seat, and her books, umbrella, and mu- sic were scattered about the car. Very gallantly the Sophomore gath- ered together her goods and chattels, but did not return them to their owner. She was silent, thoug-h she was inwardly yearning- to know why he was traveling in the wrong direction. Now, this Senior was not con- ceited. Had she been, she would readily have answered this mental question, and correctly, too. The conductor called: Ward! I ' ll take my things now, please, the Senior said, rather meekly. That ' s all right, was all he answered, and politely helped her ofF the car. At the gate she held out her hands for her belongings. You can hardly come in, you know. He had gone only a few steps when he heard a faint Wait a minute from the gate. I want to tell } ' ou how sorry — Five minutes after, the little Junior, hurrying in at the gate, beheld a most ludicrous picture. The smiling Senior and the beaming Sopho- more were blissfulh ' unconscious of the mud beneath and the water above until a very audible giggle from the Junior made them hurry away to their respective posts. For two people, at least, the weather prophecy was incorrect for that day. The weather was perfect. Theodora Scruggs. MY LADY A face of lily purity; A cheek of faint wild rose, Where a deep ' ning flush of color comes With ev ' ry wind that blows. Eyes, merry, blue, and liquid sweet. Like stars on a summer night That glow in the quiet, dark ' ning sky. With radiance soft and bright. ' i _- A mouth of tender, drooping curve; A smile, both sweet and gay. That cheers my hours of deepest gloom And turns my night to day. All these, and a slender, graceful form; A step as light as air; A heart as pure as the sweet, white rose- This is my lady fair. Ethei Chappell. Serenade of the Elves Prelude OW hie away, ye summer elves, To gain my lady ' s bowers, And lightly tread as western wind Among the sleeping flowers. Bring violin, harp, and light guitar, Nor leave the merry flute. Woo you my love with horn and lyre; And you, with tender lute. Nor rudely break her slumber light. But weave her dreams among The tender notes that fain my heart In ev ' ry thought hath rung! Song Sleep, my love, for darkness stealeth O ' er the dome of ev ' ning ' s gray; Sleep until the ruddy starlight Fades athwart the breast of day. Sleep! Sleep and dream of endless summer. Where the primrose, pearled with dew, Gleams across the silver moonbeams Shining in the marsh-mist blue. Sleep! Sleep! Round my lady ' s tower are circling Chains of fireflies — gleaming gold- Fairy guards of bower and castle Bearing torches on the wold. Elfin forms among the roses Cull the perfumes sweet and rare — Cull them for the fragrant tresses Of my lady ' s falling hair! Sleep! Sleep, my love, and may the angels Guard thee till the break of day; Sleep until the rosy dawning Breaks to light the dreams away. Sleep! Sleep! Garnet Noel. When We Have a Lecture at Ward IVB BELLS ! A current of excitement runs through the pupils of Ward Seminary. We are to have a lecture. Those g-irls who were fortunate enough to have been in the chapel during the period which has just closed kno v, or at least have heard the rumor, of the important event. We, who were at recitation, or on the gallery, or washing our hands (a very popular — and, by the way, necessary — occupation), know nothing of it, but hurry with one accord toward the center of action, the chapel. There we find everything in confusion. The Seniors are leaving their dignified station in the rear of the room to sit among the Fresh- men, that they may the better hear the learned discourse; the Prima- ries are being seated; and the teachers come down to dwell among- us, and learn how un- comfortable hard desks are even for that short time. Everything is quiet again in a few mo- ments. Professor Blanton soon comes upon the rostrum from the reading room at the left, followed by the lecturer himself, whom he introduces to the school. Then it is that we are supposed to burst into applause. After the din has subsided, the lecturer commences his address. There are many ways of beginning. He sometimes tells us he has had only a little while to prepare his discourse, and is, therefore, un- prepared; or he greets us in declaring- that he is delighted to see so many bright, happy faces; but generally he begins in that easy, jovial manner which attracts and holds the attention of his hearers. When his lecture is on some specific point which we have studied, we listen with added interest. Sometimes we lean back in our seats and drink in leisurelj ' what he is saying; while at other times we sit bolt upright and, with a very businesslike air, take down notes. There are two senses of pleasure which come over us while we listen to a lecture; one is the consciousness that we are learning something, and the other (a very secondary joy) is the fact that we are missing some recitation which we probably have not prepared. It is over all too soon, however, and Miss Jennings ' bell brings us back to the reality of text-book work. Anna R. Cole. TD vt T- To You The song bird twists her tuneful throat, The daffodils are flecked with dew, The white bud deepens into rose, The meadow gleams with blossoms new. The song bird twists her tuneful throat To trills and chirps of melody; The sweet world sings for newborn joy, I only sing for thee. Upon each lip the note is love. The curving earth, the sunset sky. Meet with their links of gold and rose; You meet me with a sigh. The purple hills are echo hung To catch the songs I may not hear; Your lips are sealed with winter ' s kiss. And mine with winter ' s tear. Garnet Noei,. Noblesse Oblige UTSIDE the snow falls softly and unceasing-ly, covering the smoke-begTimed roofs with a veil of purity, piling- white drifts in the corners, and cling-ing- lovingly to the dark-brown curls of a tall young girl crossing the street. Within the house toward which she is walking, the firelight flickers on the walls of a room fur- nished with exquisite taste. On a large armchair before the glowing grate sits a white-haired lady, so beautiful, with a face so full of tranquil sweetness and patience, that the very atmos- phere about her breathes of peace and rest. The shadows come and go, falling on her silvery hair and the slender white hands folded quietly in her lap. She is looking into the fire; and, as she looks, a sigh parts her lips, and her brown eyes fill with tears. Four years ago to-morrow, she murmurs — four years since Lily died, and to-morrow is her birthday. The white head is bowed, and her lips move in silent prayer. Somewhere in the house a door opens and shuts; there are quick, light steps in the hall, and a moment later the brown-haired girl conies in, with the snowflakes still on her hair and furs. The lady raises her head, and a welcoming smile lights up her face. O, grandma, a glad young voice cries, guess the good news! Guess it quick, or I shall perish for want of a ' went ' for my feelings. Why, Dolly, dear, her grandma answers, I can think of nothing, except that you are at last going to college. Come here to the fire and tell me if I am right. Wisest of grannies, you are a regular Macbethian witch, minus the beard. Dolly tosses her hat and wraps on the couch, and, coming forward, gives her grandmother a tempestuous kiss; then she settles herself at her feet, curling up on the rug- like a kitten. As she rests her arms on the old lady ' s lap and looks up into her face, the two make a pretty picture in the firelight. The wrinkled hands smooth the tumbled locks caressingly, and the sweet old face is full of sympathetic interest; for there is a great love between the gentle woman and the harum-scarum girl. Since the dark hour, four years before, when a young mother had, with a last effort, placed her child ' s hands in those which had so tenderly guided her own life and whispered, Guard her for me, Dollv had known no lack of love and care. All her childish griefs and joys, all the hopes and aspirations of growing girlhood, as well as its fun and frolic, had been shared by grandma — her comrade in pleasure; her refuge in trouble; her faithful, loving guide in all things. And now, as she looks into the happy brown eyes, a prayer of thankfulness rises in the grandmother ' s heart that as yet no real cloud has shadowed the bright young life. You see, most beloved of witches, continues Dolly, picking up the spectacles lying temptingly near and putting them on in a way that bids fair to send their owner to the oculist again shortl} ' , ' ' your granddaughter must have inherited some of your witchlike powers. Anyhow, by a judicious mixing of wheedling, threatening, and com- manding, I have at last forced papa to surrender the long-besieged fort, with all its ammunition (greenbacks in this case). I have waylaid him in every conceivable place, from the front steps to the depot, and talked ' college ' till I don ' t blame him for running off to St. Louis for one peaceful night. Finally, on the train just now, I gave him the finishing stroke by refusing to leave until he had promised. She laughs softly at the recollection, and adds: Dear old daddy! He thought I was in earnest; and, as the train began to move, he lifted me bodily to the platform and said: ' Well, well. Queen! Have it your own way; you usually do, you know. ' I called back to him that I wouldn ' t be a queen if I didn ' t. Isn ' t that so, grandma? she con- cludes, looking up saucily. Why — dear me ! — what a grave face ! I don ' t believe you have heard one word I have said. Her grandmother smiles. You know I was listening. Queen, and I am very, very glad for you; but I could not help thinking just then of poor Jennie Brown, and contrasting her sorrow with your happiness. You remember her? Well, yesterday the doctor told her that he could do nothing more for her; and, unless she can have a costly operation performed, she will be deformed and a helpless invalid the rest of her life. Of course they are too poor to think of such a thing, for it would cost several hundred dollars; so she must face her sad future as best she can. Ned — dear fellow ! — wanted to he lp her, but he is not able. It has troubled me all day. The gladness dies out of Dolly ' s face, and her eyes are dark and pitying as she turns them to the fire. There is silence for a long while; then she says, irrelevant!} : Grandma, do you remember how little Kittie Brent wouldn ' t enter her beautiful Persian cat with the other contestants for the prize, because she thought they would have no chance, as Puzzy would be sure to win, and he was ' too noble? ' Somebody had explained to her the meaning of ' noblesse oblige, ' and she had applied it in her own little life. She wanted that prize with all her heart. The old lady looks rather perplexed, but says nothing-. There is another long- silence; then Dolly speaks again: Grandma, when I jumped into the pond after Kittie and broug-ht her out, nearly drowned, didn ' t some foolish person say I was a noble girl ? Yes, dear. Her grandmother is looking down at her, still per- plexed; but a light begins to dawn upon her as Dolly, drawing a long, deep breath, rises and shakes herself, as if a burden had fallen from her shoulders. Well, dearest, Dolly says, gayly, though her eyes are suspiciously bright, I find that I must give up my prize, too. She turns and walks quickly to the window; her grandmother fol- lows and puts an arm about her neck. They are very still for a few moments, and then a tremulous voice says, softly: To-morrow is mamma ' s birthday; I ' ll ask papa to let me carry my college money to Jennie, then. She would be glad, I know. The old lady draws her closer, kisses her once ver) gently; and then they stand together looking out, with tear-dimmed eyes, beyond the snow-covered garden, where a slender w hite shaft gleams in the gath- ering twilight. Laura Malone. A teacher chanced in Bible Class To take a Senior ' s book. Sad tale! She found the leaves uncut; She gave that girl a look. ' The .situation needs no words, The truth ' s hung out its sign: I can ' t read through an uncut page; I read between the lines. ' ' ' On such a thing as this, said she, I fimily put my foot; You know full well I gave no leave To leave the leaves uncut ! .67- .x3 ' --— d, m ) ' :: ,-, ■ ' H - .Cjf ' -■ i M , GRADUATES IN PIANO ELIZABETH CLOPTON, Arknlis, AUCE COONS, Alabama I,UCII,E FRIZZELI,.

Garner Mrs. Johnson Bransford Miss Julia Dudley How I Became a Delta Sigma I HAD begged hard that week we were staying with the Winstons, but Miladi was obstinate; and so it came about on the morning we started home — a dozen happy, worn-out merrymakers — that she still wore upon her shirt waist the lit- tle sorority pin for which I would have given worlds. A hundred times, perhaps, I had begged that I might be allowed to wear it, even for an hour; but the week had gone by, the house party was a thing of the past, and we were coming home. Each time I had asked to be made a Delta Sigma Miladi had replied that it was impossible; that she would never part with it for as much as an hour, unless to pin it upon the coat of the man she loved better than she loved the band of girls composing the sorority to which she be- longed; and she was almost as positive that she would never find that man. Miladi was not a flirt; far from it. She was not averse to listening to the words of love that were drummed into her ears by every man of us that week at Winston ' s; but now that we were going home, there was not one who could feel that he was leading in the race for her favor. More than one of us had sworn to wear that Delta Sigma pin before the end of the week — sworn it to ourselves, ' tis true; but the oath was just as serious as if there had been a dozen wit- nesses. Now the week was over, and the beautiful little light-blue-and-purple emblem still rested defiantly upon Miladi ' s breast — rested there and kept guard over the dear heart beating within. I saw it there as I helped Miladi on the train that came puffing and blowing into the little station, three miles from the Winston home, as if already tired, though the day had just be- gun. That pin held in place a full-blown red rose I had given her that la.st night as we wan- dered across the lawn from the lake where we two had been for an hour ' s sail — the last offering from my hand and heart — and I was glad. Did it presage something for me? I tried hard to think so, until Joe came, took the seat beside her in the car, and began pulling off the petals, one by one, to scatter them upon the floor. One fell at my feet, and I ground it with my heel. I had giyen up the struggle; I had given her the red rose, had staked my heart, and was going home a bankrupt. It was a furious race while it lasted during that week at Winston ' s; but I had come in, and also ran. I sat alone in a far end of the stuffy combination baggage-and-passenger.coach as the antedi- luvian engine wheezed and puffed its way through the forest. It was early morning when we started, and we had come to the river before the sun got far enough above the tops of the trees to dispel the fog that had settled down during the night. A chilly breeze blew up from the water, dampening the dresses of the half dozen girls as they crowded upon the front platform of the car to catch the first glimpse of home, and sent them shivering back to their seats, de- feated by the mist which hung like a pall upon the broad Father of Waters. As the train started, backing sl owly down the incline that leads to the transfer boat, the party pushed forward again and waved a morning salute at the little city on the other side, just awaking from a long night of rest; while just at that moment the July sun came up above the trees with a rush, dispelling the mist and seeming to answer the salute of the little party from every emblazoned church spire and high-perched window within the limits of the town. The sight was, indeed, a glorious one ; and the answering signal from the other side was: Welcome home ! Then the shrill whistling of the engine, three car lengths up the steep incline, struck terror to the hearts of all. We were going too fast; the car in which we sat seemed to be flying through the air. The rails had proved slippery in the fog; the brakes on the engine had refused to work; we were running away down the incline, and there was only a frail bulkhead in the boat to stop the plunge of the train. Back from the front platform the bewildered boys and girls rushed, and I had but time to mutter: God help us ! God save them all and save her for me ! The forward car crashed through the boat, tore away the bulkhead at the end of the tracks, aud plunged into the water. Confusion reigned during the few moments that elapsed while the fated car was sinking into the mud at the bottom of the river and we were clambering out as best we could through the shattered rear end. The shrieks of the members of the party could be heard above all else as the chilly water crept arouud fair white throats, and the hor- rors of a lifetime were crowded into the ten seconds that followed the crash. I found Miladi clinging, fainting, to the seat into which she had been thrown as the car pitched into the river. Her eyes were closed, the flush had gone from her cheeks, and I lifted her gently, as one would lift the dead; but I thanked God the rest had gone with other pre- cious burdens and left this one for me. Out to safetj- we climbed, her hair all wet, and shining glossy black, brushing against my cheek. And, as we climbed, I whispered into her ear, though she could not understand : I love you ; I love you. It was the song I had sung to her always, since that first night in June, and must be the burden of all my songs forever. Out there upon the upper deck of the transfer boat, to which we had clambered from the end of the car now sinking deeper into the mud, we watched and worked and waited for the return to consciousness of those whose senses had mercifully fled. At last Miladi ' s eyes opened; and, as the glad light came into them again, she reached her hand toward me, and within the clinched fingers were some crushed and bruised rose petals. I took them and kissed them, and with me to this day lingers the sweet odor that I breathed that morning. Presently Miladi sat up, her wealth of black hair falling over her shoulders to hide her agitation and excitement that came with the memory of what had happened. I went close to her and knelt down beside her shaking form; and as I whispered to her that the danger was past, she took from her dress the dear little blue-and-purple emblem that had held my rose and pinned it upon my coat. Better than the sorority? I asked, and she answered: No, but I make you by this act a Delta Sigma. That little pin is worth more to me than all the world besides, for Miladi still loves us both. D.

Officers Irene Russeli, Maud Wilson Emma Walker Lillian William.s Miss Caldwell . President . Vice President Recording Secretary Corresponding Secretary- Musical Director HERE are so many myths and legends connected with the life of St. Cecilia, the patron saint of music, that it is difEcult to ascertain her actual story. This much, however, is authentic: that she was born in Rome, of a noble family, about 227, during the reign of Alexander Severus, and that she was reared in the Christian faith. Though she had vowed to devote herself to the church, her parents compelled her to marry Valerian, a nobleman of high rank. She converted him, however, and also his brother, Severus. They went about doing good and securing converts, which caused them to be persecuted. After being tortured in various ways, St. Cecilia died; and, when dying, she requested that her house should become a place for Christian worship. A church was built over it, then destroyed, and again and again rebuilt, and it is said that her bones repose in a silver shrine beneath the altar. She was beautiful in person and character ; was very gifted in music, and de- voted her talents to the development of church music. This, with her martyr- dom, caused her to be canonized; and music and the kindred arts — painting and poetry have vied with each other in doing her homage. Among the many beautiful pictures of her the one by Raphael ranks first. She is represented as standing, with all the known musical instruments at her feet, the organ pipe (which she is supposed to have invented) in her hands; to her right stand St. Paul and St. John; on her left, St. Augustine and Mary Magdalene; above is a choir of angels, to whom the saint is listening with ecstasy. ' Of Orpheus now no more let poets tell. To bright Cecilia greater power is given; His numbers raised a shade from hell, Hers lifted the soul to heaven. lyiLLiAN May Williams.

Educate him? Certainly, but remember that developing his mind alone is a fatal mistake.

MORAL ADVANTAGES : Teachers take the place of parents; and this beautiful building, with its steam heat, electric light, and domestic water, becomes the home. NO SALOONS IN THE COUNTY. INTELLECTUAL ADVANTAGES: Specialists in each department. Limited number of students. PHYSICAL ADVANTAGES : Recitations, gymnasium, bed, and board under one roof.
