0 1 i t 1 v 1915 Qtbe Spinster 23 Doesn't this remind you of our Sophomore year, when we used to come down and make tea with the Seniors? Remember the baby party Miss Morrow gave us? And .Judith was Miss Morrow's little girl-and has been ever sincef' said Annie. That accounts for her being taken in A D A as the Faculty Pet. But when Jude put on her fourth expression, and began to blush, wentook com- passion on her, and Annie proceeded to tell what she knew of l9l 5 and its past behavior. The night before Founder's Day, we sat around this ,very table, planning how we were going to get our banner up. It was a hard fight, but we came-out on toppg and then the wedding that night. Will you ever forget.it? Wedding? said Mary, dreamily. I don't remember anything about a wedding. Of course you don't, said Ed, that was one of the many times when you were flitting around at Washington and Lee. By this time the delicious, penetrating odor of bacon and toast had brought Carrie, Eunice, and Berenice down from the hall above, two steps at a time. You think you're having a party, don't you? said Carrie, with a laugh all her own. Q . The real purpose of this gathering, I protested, was to write the Class Historyg though it seems to have rdegenerated into a feast. Eunice, please give me, in a few brief sentences, your first impressions of this Class. I Well, the first thing I- would mention would be Muck's red hair, the second, Judithis effervescent puns, third, Burton's laugh, fourth, Bessie's fondness for 'Nights of Bliss',' 'then Dot and Ed's excessive Congeniality, Dabney's intellect, Annie's frank- ness, Mary's absence, Bee's fondness for book-agents, Dena's punctualit.y at breakfast, and your-H I I A Never mind about me, I said quickly. This soliloquy of yours is going in print, so you'd better not say anything about me. I'll change it to you. Oh! really, I was quite attached to this Class from the start. I used to watch you all when I first heard I was going to be a Junior. You all always did so many clever things, and that Junior Play! If I live to be a thousand, I'll never forget Judith standing in the middle of the stage, screaming, I will not put it on, I will notng and , . - -Q - V , ,f ' , -v A-....g..,..,,,Y.:A. ..?TL..,.,. ,. a n ,

We simply crowded that old Math. room to overflowing. And werenit you excited to death when we asked Miss Williamson to be Sponsor? continued Ed. Then there was the Easter-Egg Hunt in the Kellar, and the Picnic, the Juniors' Games, and in Oh, Dotg wait -a minute, let me catch up. I suddenly remembered that I had neglected so far to preserve any of this jeweled information on paper. Just then the door opened, and in walked Judith, with a black laboratory manual in one hand, and Chemistry books in the other. Got any eats in here? I've just come from the Science Hall, where they are making cake, and the odor of 'em is ringing in my ears yet. ' There were ,a few crackers left from the Founder's Day reception, I said: but I think the mice have obliterated them by now. I see Annie and Mary. coming across the campus, with all kinds of bags and bottles. I bet they have been to the store. l..et's call them. Soon we were each possessed of a jumbo or pickle from the bags of our generous friends. Oh, girls, you should have seen the vampire down on the road, said Annie, as she deposited cans of bacon and beans, and a loaf of bread on the table. Tell us about the 'vamp', urged Judith, and picking up the once-was-a-carving- knife, she began to slice the bread, I haven't heard any excitement since the Faculty Surprise Recital. Oh no, I'll save that for the Senior Banquet. Mary, turn on the toaster. We'll have a royal feast before long. You all aren't giving me any History, I said, desperate at being discarded for a cracker and a little bit of cheese. This almost had some effect. Two or three spurts of enthusiasm had brought to light a few forgotten facts about our Sophomore year, when someone said, -, -. iii-,-M ,,.f-A- SQQEJQ- -'Q 'fr-' ' N'-s'5R 55.
