After a little extra time and a stare into every corner of the room a member of the Junior Class got her “Long’s History of English Literature” and with all seriousness settled down to study the dramas of the Elizabethan Age. “Miracle plays” — are how automobiles are made — I wonder what a six-cylinder Hudson Roadster costs? The name “mystery” — it’s mystery why that wheel didn’t run off that day I was racing with the train. “Interludes” are the funny parts of the dramas — I guess that must have been the “movies.” Shakespeare was born in the ltitle village of Stratford April 23 — the same day that the championship ball game was played last session. Shakespeare was the one that said, “I’d rather hear my dog bark at a crow than for a man to swear he loved me.” Wasn’t he, Ole Lady? What period is this? Third? And I haven’t looked at my History. O, plague on English kings! I can’t learn them straight. First William the Conqueror — then William his son — then Rufus the “Red Beard” — Oh, I wish I was done. Kings didn’t do anything but fight then and are still fighting — Ole Lady, did you see the today ' s paper about the European War? Didn’t you get a letter from some one this morning? By the way, this is Tuesday night and I’ll get my letter in the morning. I can’t learn this history. Ole Lady, let’s take a bath the last period and go to bed. What! A feast? Not even Matilda and her court had as much fun as we have, even if we do have to study ourselves nearly to death. Girls, isn’t this a rose among two thorns? We can afford to put all of study period on English History when we know this is coming, but Gee! doesn’t it go against the grain when nothing follows. Sleep! Oh, yes, I forgot that peaceful, blessed and sooth- ing rest. How I could “knock it off” now. I hope the colleges of 2000 A D. will let the dead past bury its dead and tomorrow take care of itself. Just eat, sleep, drink and be merry for Miss Bennett III will get you sure if you study. Good night, girls, the only regrettable feature about this feast is that we did not get caught. In spite of my headache from studying so hard I’ve had a jolly good time. Now, rats to the hole. Page fourteen Y. W. C. A.

My Soul Asks Why My soul asks “Why?” of the stars; My soul cries “Why? to the sea; I call from my soul to the wind, But no answer comes back to me. The stars in their course move forever; The sea is forever the sea ; The wind bloweth wherever it listeth; And my spirit is wild in me. Oh! what of the wierd, wild longings That ask and never are still? The questions and dark misgivings The wild that earth cannot fill? Man passes out, and forever The earth shall know him no more, While the wind and the sea and the stars Tell naught of a far-away shore. R.

I heard a still small voice saying, “Why are you here alone?” I raised my eyes and saw what at first seemed to be a flash of light, but, gazing intently, I perceived the form of a little girl. As she advanced she again spoke, saying, “What do you seek here in this lone spot?” Then, by her superhuman knowledge, she knew the burden of my task was a possible history of the class of ’15. Transforming herself into a fairy, she said, “Follow me and thy wishes shalt be given thee.” By her magnetic force she seemed to draw me toward her; and lo, in an instant everything was darkness and I felt a sensation of moving softly, but swiftly, through the air. When I again regained consciousness I was standing beside a beautiful fountain which the fairy called “The Magic Fountain of Knowledge.” “Drink and whatsoever thou desirest shalt be revealed to thee,” she said. I did as she bade me, and immediately there arose before me a Japanese flower garden. At the far side of this garden I saw a large group of children playing; then I heard someone say, “Edy.” I turned and saw two solemn figures strolling among the cherry trees, whom I recognized as Edith Corley and Mary Lea. Then I knew their plans to be missionaries had come true. The scene changed, and a great airship descended before me. Two ladies carrying large telescopes stepped forward. Looking more closely, I knew that I beheld Ollie Sigrest and Sarah Johnston — who, from the number of prizes they carried, showed they were making many marvelous discoveries in Astronomy. This vision passed and I found in its place a magnificent church. Then came the sound of a wedding march! Looking breathlessly, I saw the groom enter and slowly walk down one aisle, while down the opposite aisle came the beautiful bride, whose smiling countenance at once revealed her as Ethel Corley. Again the scene shifted and before me was a large book store. I entered and there was Annie Steen Tate displaying her books, showing the good qualities of her stories and the real life in her lyric poems. I next beheld an immense college campus. Over one of the great arched entrances I saw graven in the stone, “English Department.” Peeping in, whom should I see but Margaret Sharp in her calm, sweet way quoting favorite poems to her English class. Then came a scene in the auditorium of one of the western capital cities. An important case was being tried. I recognized in the lawyers who were “ arguing ” this case Ele Steele and Frances Douglas. Page twenty-six I then found myself seated in a grand opera hall. The music was being rendered by two of the world’s most renowned pianists, Callie Dudley and Nora Marble. Then came Retus Butler, who held the people enraptured by her sweet voice. My attention was next directed toward a magnificent mansion surrounded by palm driveways. Reigning as queen of this home I saw Leon Reddock. Again I beheld a lovely home, but this time an exquisite bungalow. And I heard someone say, “For the class of 1915.” I looked, and Mrs. , nee Hattie Casey, was decorating in college fashion for the entertainment of her old classmates. This scene passed and in its place I observed a frail, little (?) woman standing in the doorway of one of the mission stations of the East. Someone said, “Our new minister’s wife.” By several scrutinizing glances I easily recalled Mrs. Huffstatler — the only member of our class who had her M.R.S. degree before taking her college degree. The sensation grew stronger and I was striving under the impulse to interpret the dim vision before me when lo, it was light again and “Ole-Lady” was saying, “Dollye, get up; the rising bell has rung.” BROTHERS, COUSINS, SWEETHEARTS age lT� cnt ) seven Senior History VEN back in the prehistoric times it was destined that there should be a famous college known as Hillman, to be located in the little classical town of Clinton, Mississippi. The water which then claimed all this earth tossed its waves, and as each billow passed it spoke of the coming days when Hillman College should send out a class of graduates who should become heroines in the battles of life. After the waters parted and gave place to vegetation, the trees bent towards each other and their very groans, as their huge limbs interlocked, seemed to speak of the future Hillman College with the class of 1915 ever in view. Time passed on till at last the Mayflower came with its little band of ambitious workers to start the life in this new world. And thus the beginning of Hillman College came nearer. The days of one hero after another passed and still there was no Hill- man,” yet the little spark was waiting for the time when it should cause a blaze and set on fire a train of knowledge which should owe its origin to Hillman. At last there came a day when our college proudly opened her doors and steadily till now her form has grown. Fate sometimes seemed against her, yet even through the Civil War’s long strife Hillman held her own, and paved the way for many of Mississippi’s noblest and best women. About twenty-five years ago the first member of the class of 1915 made her appearance on this ball of ours, and quickly year by year the others followed; and as they grew to girlhood one by one each turned her eyes to Clinton. Through various difficulties they climbed — some even struggling for six long years, from Preps, to Seniors. Mistress Fate played another high card last summer, the European War, but her opponent. Dame Fortune played the trump and now, thanks to her, there goes out from Hillman at the close of the session of 1914-15 the grandest class in the history of the college.

They heard you had some jitney cars And interurban trucks. Big Jeff was called to take the stand And lead the chapel song. Our teachers tried to raise some sand. They did you poor boys wrong. “Tighlwaddo” called; you would not go. You could not leave so soon, Because you loved us “Stute” girls so You stayed around till noon. Ne’er mind, dear boys, come back again. We’re with you to the end. But ask our profs before you come, Their wills are hard to bend. — Coo. Spondo. The Way of the World. Frances Douglas. HAT’S the matter, old man?” asked James Elrod of his roommate, Vincent Allison. “Well, Jim, I’ll tell you, though I’ve never told anyone. It’s the memory of my home and family when I was a kid. When I was about fourteen years old my father failed in business and my sister who was in Bishop College had to quit school. “Father sent her money to come home on and we were expecting her home any day — but instead of her coming, we received a telegram from the President of the college, saying that Sister had run away from school with her roommate and that they had tried all day to find them, but had failed. Father mortgaged our home and looked for her for eleven months. His health failed and after three months he died. On the day of Father’s death Mother fainted, and as she fell broke her back on a chair and died in thirty minutes. I was left an orphan. I got a job from a lawyer here in this University town. I went to school and kept up work with the lawyer for three years. After I had lived three years in poverty, my uncle died, and I inherited his fortune. “I stayed here in school, and now I’m nearly through my Senior year. The nearer the end of my college course I get, the more I wonder if it is my duty to find my sister; or to enter a business of my own and let her go — ” Here the voice of Vincent Allison broke and he flung himself across the bed and sobbed until his sturdy figure shook. If you will allow me to advise you, I will tell you to find your sister and give her a home. “But when I think of it I feel as if I would kill her if I ever found her!” James was silent. When it seemed to him that he simply must do something to get Vincent’s mind off his troubles, he said: “By the way, Vin, tomorrow is the twenty-second! Come, cheer up; let ' s go down town and find us some costumes. You are to be George Washington and I am your “server.” The lady who is going to be Martha Washington is the prettiest girl I ever saw! She and Miss Sally Vansworth are the best looking ladies that’ll be there. Are ' nt we lucky?” “Sally Vansworth? She is the girl who was my sister’s roommate at Bishop. By the way, Jim, please don’t mention anything about my little secret to her or anyone else.” Page f ort); -six When they got to an antique shop they selected two costumes, paid for them, gave the address and went out. On the night of the twenty-second Vincent was infatuated by the pretty widow, Mrs. Huntington, who was Martha AVashington. He was so taken up that he secured five dances out of seven with her. V ben they had danced three of the five dances he suggested that they sit the other two. As they talked she happened to say something about Priscilla, her little masked maid. “Who is she?” Vincent asked. “Sally Vansworth, a very dear friend of mine. We roomed together at school,” replied Mrs. Huntington. “Where did you go to school?” Vinced almost gasped the question. “At Bishop College.” His face grew white, his muscles set, and he shook from head to foot. He did not know anything else until he awoke from unconsciousness in a sanitarium. After ques- tioning a nurse he discovered that he had fainted at the Crawford’s Colonial party and that James Elrod had brought him to the sanitarium. He was thinking of Mrs. Huntington. He knew when he saw her smile that he had seen her somewhere. If he could have seen her eyes without her recognizing him, “but,” he thought, “they’ll tell her my name; she’ll tell them I am her brother, and the whole disgraceful story will out.” “If only I could see her before anyone discovers the fact.” His meditation was broken by the voice of a child outside his ward. “Vis one here, Mumsy?” “Yes, dear,” said a lady’s voice. And then two curly-haired children came into the room, followed by a young lady dressed in black. She rushed to the bed and fell upon Vincent’s neck. “Don’t ever fear, Vince. I haven’t told anyone about our being related. When they questioned me I told them that you were an old acquaintance of mine. What became of Mother and Father? I was afraid to go back home; I was afraid they would be dead.” “Sis, don’t try your tragedy stuff on me — I won’t stand it! I’ll never consent to your telling people that I’m anything to you except an old friend.” Despite Vincent’s anger, his sister continued: “Let me tell you about myself before I go. When I ran away from school I went with my schoolmate to her aunt’s home in Waynesboro. She kept us for a long time under assumed names. We both agreed never to marry, but when Dr. Huntington loved me and made me love him, I had to take back my vow. I told him about my school life, and as that didn’t seem to matter, we married. “There were two children, one I named for you, the other for Sally Vansworth. Four years after we were married, Dr. Huntington died. I’ll leave you now, Vince, P age forty-seven but won’t you come to see me? I’ll be here until in the summer. You may rest assured that your secret will never escape my lips.” And so she went out and left him to meditate. Soon James came in, and Vincent, declaring he was well, got up and went back to the dormitory. One night James burst into the room, grabbed Vincent and danced him around and around the room. Finally he yelled: “Vince, old boy. I’m engaged!” “Engaged? To whom?” gasped Vince. “To your partner of the party, the pretty little widow, and the twins! Yea, the twins, too! Why in the name of the world don’t you congratulate me?” “Con-grat-u-la-tions !” Vincent said sadly. “Well, this is the poorest congratulations I ever heard of one friend giving another!” But Vincent Allison did not hear him; he was reaching for his hat. He rushed out of the room, down the stairs and out into the street, leaving James Elrod the most puzzled of boys. “Now, where can he be going? I never heard of such actions — going out like this at this time of night. Surely — he stopped as if frightened, “surely Vince is not in love with Lena, but it certainly looks that way.” A knock at the door dispelled all thoughts of the love affair, and as he opened the door a note was handed him. He read: “My Dear Mr. Elrod: Since you left tonight I’ve had something to drive me to tell you something before our engagement is announced, as what I have to tell you may make you change your mind. Will you come around immediately? Lena.” He was overcome with curiosity. “Oh, yes,” he thought, “I see now — Vince has had former experience with her — maybe Vince made her write that note. When Mr. James Elrod entered the parlor he was surprised to see Lena sitting at the feet of Vincent Allison. James would have withdrawn if Vincent hadn’t called him. “James, here is my sister that I told you about. You have engaged yourself to her. She is willing to release you.” “Vincent, I love your honor; I love you as no boy ever loved another — but I love your sister better than all this world. Lena!” But Lena was already in his arms. They agreed not to let the secret out, and Vincent made his way back to his room. The next night when the two young men were alone in their room Vincent handed James a piece of paper, on which James read: Edmund Vincent Allison announces the engagement and approaching marriage of his sister , Mrs. Lena Huntington , to James Garrison Elrod.

Flower: Red Carnation Motto: “It ain’t no use puttin’ up your umbrella ’till it rains.’’ ERNEZE BUTLER President Prep. Poem We have no history, you can see, For the 1915 “Subs” are we; No tales of battles fought and won, Of midnight feasts and schoolgirl fun; No Junior grace and haughty mein, Nor Senior pride and dignity serene; Our battles yet are to be fought. The longed-for knowledge to be sought. The “sheep skin” four long years away. With work and study for many a day; We’re simply in the bud, you see, And all our triumphs yet to be. But we’ve hitched our go-carts to a star. So think what we will be, and not what we are.

Sarah Johnston Everything that heard her play , Even the billows of the sea Hung their heads , and then lay by; In her music is such art, Killing care and grief of heart.
