John Tarleton College - Grassburr Yearbook (Stephenville, TX)

Text from Pages 1 - 220 of the 1925 volume:

■ r C m ill L THE LIFE OF A BOOK nHE life of a book is largely djtermined by the manner in which it is first opened. Any book, no matter how well bound, can be ruined by improper handling when new. Do not open book at any point and press out flat as this will cause sections to break loose. Open book at front, turn two or three leaves at a time, gently rubbing your fingers along binding edge to make leaves lay flat. Continue this through entire book so as to limber it up. This will add years to the life of your book. San Antonio printing Co. 130 SOLEDAD STREET San Antonio. Texas I Ex-LiiM is The Grass bun Tlio Annual I ' ubkaton oP (JOHN TARlETOfi -COPGE- utep ie nvi lie Q)edicatioao ro Ray Winfield Harris Captain, Infantry, V. S. Army, Professor of Military Science and Tactics, as a token of the esteem in which he is held by the entire student hody, for his untir- ing, unselfish devotion to the interests of the the college, this volume of Or.nsshurr is dedicated. The Class of Qas The campus trees and flowers Round ]ohn Tarletons tomb are sad. They how their heads While Taps, in the cool of yui ht, Sounds a sweet dir e. Death stealin; across the campus, On a cool dainp breeze, Chose youth with a future. For Youth will follow unafraid. Death is fathomless. It makes one pause and wonder Of the Why of things — Of Life, of Death, of Eternity, Of things we a(?i)i()t understand. It makes one think of all the songs h has inspired in great men, ages past. AjuI yet, had J the power to write a poem Like one of the.se, it would not compensate The loss of one so dear. IRobert Jlec ortcr September 20. 1904 lanuarp 31. 1023 i Foreword Cl | ' E take pleasure in offering for XJ your ap]iroval this edition of the Onisshiirr. In it we liave endeavored to porti ' ay faitlil ' ully the many events that have made nineteen hundred and twenty- tive a great year in the history of John Tarleton College. From the great mass of worthy material it has been our earn- est desire to select sketches of those phases of our school life that most truly represent the high ideals and devotion to duty that characterize it. Our sincer- est hope is that among the things that become more dear to you as the years go by will be this record of the days when we were comrades together.

Reflection calls to mind the pleasures of the year. We ha e had several parties, wiener roasts being our specialty. What one among us docs not recall with pleasure the hike to the College Farm ? P.ini P. Allen, our pi ' csident, has been one of the shining lights of the class. We always enjoy Mr. Allen immensclcy and are proud to have him as the leader of oui ' liaiid of wanderers in I he great field of knowledge. ; rrs. Woodward, our faculty advisoi ' , is one of the few wlio would really care to indulge with us in our s|)iii1s. meetings, and pastimes. We feel indeed grateful to her tV)r her help and in.struction in organizing our class. We lia -c anuiug us several athletes. Max Menzics, our former president, played on the football team as did also Oilmcr Williams and Patton. Several of our nuiidier were on the Jim Tarlcton basket hall squad. In l)aseball we were repi ' eseutcd by Abbot and ] obert Williams. Politically, we also made a show- ing. Barney Google, candidate for fiovernor of the State of Texas, a bad Icadei ' of the AVhiz l ang Party, can be claimed by the So]ihoiiiores. Verily, we have profited liy this year ' s work. We liaxc hail our misunder- standings, our faults, and our examiiiat ions ; liut we liave survi cd the ordeal. We have, in good faith, shown ourselves to be real men and real women.

With eharaeteristie resourcefulness and ingenuity, the Amci ' icaii (iovcrnment succeeded in emerging victorious from the strn fiic hut (inly at a Irightful cost of time and material.

The stinging conviction that had we liecn ])rcpai-cd e cn in snmc small measure J ' or our countiy ' s defense, we shoidd ha c nc cr been (■(ier -ed into Kui ' Ol)e ' s battles, came as a sickening reaii .at ion.

At the end of the war with its demobilization and return to creative pur- suits, the I ' luted States, to avoid a recurrence of a similar disaster, devised and put into operation the most elaborate and efficacious scheme of national defense ever projected by a democratic nation. Primarily it consists of four lines: The Regular Army, tlie National (luard, the Organized Uesei-ve, and tlic Citizens Army. (Tlie most notewiirthy and commendable feature of the United States mili- tary syst( m is the tntal absence of any ])lans or preparation for offensive move- m ' lyuvt ■A, ii ? 1 ' Q : 5 . g g y r iQ=oooLj EKjhtihiUiht The R.

The ai ' fliivcs of tlic w;ir dcpai ' t incut do not foiitain one siiifi ' le ])aiier ])ertaining to any niovenicnt other than for the defense of our own territory in ease of foreign aggression. ' I ' he oiuanization of reserves consists at present mostly of ex-world-war officers ; liowexcr to maintain this body at reasonable strength two feeders for it ar( provided, the Civilians ililitary Training Camps and the Re. erve Officers Training f ' orps. Th.e former is concerned elnefly of tlie train- ing of non-eomniissioned ranks, while units of the latter are instituted in mir liest colleges and universities to provide for the training of competent officers. Thanlvs to the admiiii-t ration of the college and especially to Captain Ray W. Harris. Tarleton lias the most efficient R.O.T.T ' . unit at present existing in the junior colleges of tlic I ' liitcd States. Vhilc it is ti-ue that the ])rimary ob- ject of all military training is to win battles the statement is not to be con.strued to mean that military training has no other end or benetit. Considering the wretched condition of health in most colleges, it is a pertinent consideration that Tarleton is singularly free from valitudinarians. The military v.ork given extends over a period of two years. During the first term the new and comparatively gawky .student is put through rigorous training designed chiefly to give him mental poise and bodily control. The necessity of cooperation, the insistance upon promptness, neatness, and obedience, all tend toward the development of that gentlemanly conduct and dependability upon which the second year s work is based. As a senior the cadet is placed in charge of a group of men. In leading these, he has an excellent opportunity to develop those qualities of resourcefulness, fair dealing, discipline, self control, ••iiid ability to command, which marks the leader in any phase of life. Leadership is seldom an innate quality, and it is not easily developed in the ordinary course of life ; yet to succeed, to attain the best in any field, one must direct and manage men. Leadership is an art within itself, and although its principles are universally the same, their intelligent application comes only from long and diligent practice. Tarleton does not presume to make men, but to the boy of potential ability, the college offers as its greatest advantage train- ing and direction in leadership in such manner that, as a man, he may best serve himself, his school, and his country.

One of the worthy organizations of Tarleton College is its band ; no other oi-ganization of the College than is the band whose organizer and director is Mr. D. G. llunewell. Mr. Hunewell was educated at Bethany College and came to Tarleton five years ago, since which time he has been a quiet and impelling force in the college. It was during his fii ' st year in the college that he oi ' ganized tlie college band, wliich was sm;dl having only nine meml)ei ' s. The fii ' st piece that it jilaycd was iMii-onragcincnt Mai-cii. The second year, the mcinlicrsliip grew to twenty. While the band was still a small one, it was a gooil one and its success seemed a.ssured. Dni ' ing this s(M-oncl year, many eoiieerts wei-e given and one of the larg- est trijjs evei ' undei ' laken liy any eoileg oi ' ganization was made and sneeess- I ' nlly carrie l out i)y the hand boys and tlieir director. The triji lasted two weeks, and the band traveled about two thousand miles in an , rmy (iet- . ay truck and a ford car, visiting fifty West Te.xas towns.

Oc: g=g _ Potatoes Q r.MEDIATI•:LY after Ihc establishment of Jolm Tarleton College there CL was a popularity contest. It was not to (Icteiiniiic the most beautiful maid- en nor the most handsome cadet ; it was far from any of these. It was a contest that is seldom staged. Knowing that during the school session a great amount of food wouhl l)e used, all the substantial foods entered into a popularity contest lo see wliii-h (me would lie the bc-t liked by all the students on the Campus. The c ' ljiitest was very interesting. Mr. Onion made it well known that he was in the lace. He spread his audacious propaganda very effectively at first, hut finally he lost his jiniHilaiity : for every time anyone would pass an Onion supporter, he wcmld make an unfavorable looking face. His strong issues were soon absorbed by some other candidate and useil to i)ut a finishing taste and color to his issues. Mr. Corn received a number of votes, but he was too sensi- livc and heai ' d too much every morning at the breakfast table to lie in the final run-off. .Ml ' . I )can was especially popular as a mid-day speaker, but he was too hard-boiled and disagreeable to be coii idei ' ( d vcr - higlily. .Mr. I ' ust Toast- ies was a cry scintillating wit who was ixijiular with a few and who had an e.xccpl ionally strong will. Kvei-y mniiiini, ' aliiuist I he entire student body unuld bow their heads and give reverence to him, and then lea e the table with a few of his edinfiiitiiig words going with I hem all duiiiii; the day. lint all of these foods lost to .Mr. Potato, because with his many ey( s he could see e -erything going on. (Ither ])eii])le made the contest a luated one. but none equalleil .Mr. Potato.

( )n the night following the final returns of the election, .Mr. Potato was eidwiied Kiiii; of Foods of John Tarleton Agricultural College. On the follow- iiiL! day he at njion his throne and appointed his advisors, coachmen, attendants. and servants. .Many people received places in his court and considered these ureat lionois. . ll living beings on the Campus were his subjects. They were loyal to him from the first. Hours, days, and months have passed since that crowning day, but all are still faithful. Today if a traveler spends a day on the Campus, he sees every person ])ay respei-t to King Potato at twelve-twenty and again at six o ' clock. .Ml dei)end on him for life and sustenance. How much longer will this ruler be on his throne. ' Will he ever desert lis for drubbs ? The answer is that he will lule until death se|)arates his subjects from him. lie will outlive them all; his life will continue until the judgment day. On that day h: Potato of Tarleton College and Mr. Apple of the Garden of Eden will stand together at the Pearly (!ate and say: We came, we saw, we conquered. — ■ . D.

Their destiny is tlie beautiful City of Graduation, on the Island of May. Nine ships, Agrieulture, Edueation, Veterinary, Medicine, Com- mercial Arts, Pine Arts, Home Economics, Manual Arts, General Science, and Social Science, leave the wharf of September, carrying on them such passen- gers as are able to offer fifteen high school credits and a vaccination certificate. Each shi]) takes a different course, ])assinii- many islanils on the :iy In Graduation. All vessels nuist t(i|) at the laru;es1 island. Enjilish. Heic the .liiiiior voyagers must pa.ss such obstacles as Bacon ' s essa.vs, no ' els, short stories, pla. ' s, themes, descriptions, letters, and oral compositions. The Seniors are recpiircd to write themes, read dramas, and poetry, and report on English novels before they re-embark. A few do not enjoy their visit here. They detest the atmos- phere of the place ; they loathe the very sound of pentameter lines ; they dislike to fathom the meaning in the essays and the novels; and such matters as punctuation, spelling and sentence structure are an abomination to them! Others appreciate the music of the lyrics; they can read with understanding the works of masters ; and thus their visit is one of pleasure. Some of the ships, especially the General Science, must pass the Island of Chemistry. The soil there contains every mineral and substance which have lieen discovered. Volcanoes are in eruption. Indeed, the island is full of problems which are to be solved. The government is verv t.vrannical, Charles and l oyle being two of the most prominent law-makers. If their statutes are not obeyed, the travelers remain on the island until they have served a sentence in the asylum, — the D Examinations. If one term is not sufficient, they continue there for an indefinite period of time. The island of Foods is one which onlv the Home Economics passes. Deli- cious odors float in the air to entice those who stop. Every passenger is required to prepare a meal and to serve one, to be a hostess, and to be a guest before she leaves. Cui ' iously enough, notebooks are very popular there. Education is the name of a port at which all who wish to secure teacher ' s certificates must stop for eighteen months. The Juniors study how to teach elcmentaiy school childi ' en. while the Seniors learn how to teach high school students. In the latter division the studv is heavily peppered with arguments, some being on Definition of Work. ' Honesty Is The Best Policy, Capital Punishment, and other subjects. There are two foreign islands. French and Spanish. Those who chance to roam there stumble over many stones. Some are small, such as the vocabu- laries and i)repositions; but some are very large.

There are many other ports to be visited by the various ships before they reach home. The last one is called Quiz . Quiz is the most peculiar and tiresome island in the entire Sea. On arrival the voyagers are confronted with many (|uestions which are about the other islands. In order to pass, they arc re(|uired not to gain access to notes, note-ixjoks. text-books, or help from any inclividual. This place is very rough and rugged. Sometimes Forgetfulncss pushes in, but he is soon sent on his way, by Rememiirancc. Finally, those who are not troubled with Ignorance are accomi)anied by Determination, Will- power, and Ambition to Graduation. There the flowers send out an inviliiin fia-jraiice. the girls who wear beautiful white dresses; and the boys clad in khaki uniforms. When the Senior voyagers have reached the end of their Junior College life, they are ready to receive the prize for which they have sailed so far, — the purple and white diploma.

' law. the authorities have deemed it necessary to |iul a stop t(i every Senior ha viiiy ' a fish. .Now, it is and has been for many years a eustmn and a ti-adition — if you will excuse the expression — among old students in various institutions to take advantage of the opportunity of working the new men in aii()us manners, and this has been so, more or less, in this institution in the past. At the beginning of the school year. we. the old men, decided that we would introduce a svstem in the barracks wherebv evei ' v Senior wouhl have Hiniiliril Si.rl! -ci(iht r A SSBUJjRji X } Fishes and Goats {Continued ' a fish . At the same time we decreed no fish should perform any task for an upper ehissiuan when the upper elassnum was reeeiving financial remuner- ation. Furthermore, we promised to settle all differences between various members of this organization, should any arise, through a Senior Court com- posed of five seniors. As you remember, NEW IfEN, we called you together and read to you our plans and asked your opinions on the matter as a whole. In this very same meeting every single one of you was satisfied and entered into the spirit of the thing whole-heartedly and unbegrudgingly. We have had no appeal from any of yon of lough treatment at the hands of upper- classmen, and, as far as 1 know, not a lick has been dealt to a freshman by upperclassmen since this arrangement was set in action. Yet since the authori- ties object to this practice, w-e, as Seniors desirous of co-operating with the officials of the institution in building a greater Tarleton, are anxious to make an end of the matter as quickly as possible. I am sure that if we had considered this matter thoroughly and had consulted the proper authorities before insti- tuting this affair, there would not have been such a meeting as this tonight. I am free to confess that personally I believe — and I think I voice the sentiments of every old man here — that we in.stituted this system to promote school spirit — not one selfish purpose had we in mind — and yet from all outside appearances it looks like a selfish highhanded frame-up. 1 know that I have shined my own shoes and puttees time after time when 1 could have called my fish just as easily. Summing up the whole affair I believe nothing serious has come of it so far and probably no evil effects would have been noted by the end of the year — yet in a year or two probably it would have reached more severe and larger proportions until it would have nuiterially affected the standing, the rank, and the influence of this institution. Here was our mistake: we failed to look into the future and see the far reaching consequences that could have come about just from planting the seeds this year and giving them a start. Since Dean Davis has put a stojj to our affair, many of you new men have protested and have said words to the effect that you wanted to keep it up. We as upperclassmen are glad that we can end it all with each of you in this mood and your expressions of good will, etc., make us feel better and I am sure help Dean Davis to believe that we have not forced you men to work for us just because we are old men. I honestly believe that we have not hazed in the strict sense of the meaning; yet 1 do admit that it has approached hazing and I am glad that Dean Davis has been able to stop it all before we thoughtlessly and inconsiderately injured the institution and hurt its good name. I have stated the situation as nearly as I know how; now 1 am going to let Agee formally apologize to you new men who have suffered this injustice. Antonio Agee.

I am especially _5_j igV Oiir Hitii lrrrl fUrtij-ninr ,1 GI j SS3UJinj i x: Fishes and Goats (ConlmueJ) sorry for wliat has happened, as I was implicated as leader in several of the disrespectful occurrences that have happened.

I am sure that had any of us jriveu it a thought, we would have hesitated to do the things that we have done. For all of these grievances, I ask your most humble and gentlemanly pardon, and we want you to look upon us as real friends. If we can atone in any way. or help you in any way, we beg that you let us know, and you will sec that we icalize our mistake by our willing attitude to help you. (KXTKK TIIK FORT IIFR.M.,!))

My attention was at- tracted from a loose cherry on a lady ' s hat. whieli bobbed ridiculously when she sang, to a eoniniotion in the rear of the clniirli. I turned to look with everyone else and saw a young man in his shirt sleeves coming down the aisle, receiving a royal welcome from all the men within I ' eaeh. While he shook hands to the right and left, one or two per- sistent voices keeping up the singing, I w ' ondered what was the cause of it all; Init someone else was sharing in the celebration; an old lady was kissing and lieing kissed by all the ladies in her vicinity. ' •Worse and worse! 1 thought; I am glad she doesn ' t know me.

Buiiri A Co ' Ed ' s Diary September 15. Once more and alas! For the last time, I am a student of John ' s Institution. I came back to-day to get registered and have sympathized with the new students who knew nothing about tliat painful process, and, from their blank expressions, about nothing else. It took me some three hours less to matriculate than it did last year, thus proving the time saving value of a college education. There were only about seven hundred students registering. 21. The football schedule has been announced. We started off the season by playing our big brother on Kyle Field. We held down the score and made them fight, and it looks as though we are out to win State Championship thi.s year for si;re. We ' ve got the team, and I believe we will get the title. 26. The entire student i)ody. at least those religiously inclined have been royally entertained by their respective churches. The arrivals seem so grateful for small attentions; they feel their newness like a boy feels his first pair of long pants. The churches here are certainly kind to the students. 27. It is rumored that the new students have been welcomed rather warmly into the Fort and the Dormitory (at least that is what then think). The old students each year take it upon themselves to welcome the fish in a proper and fitting manner, if i remarkable hnw williiiii ami i-nrdial wc are in performing this duty. 28. The Erath County Fair has come and went, (as Mis Malian wouldn ' t say). The band was featured, in fact, it was the feature of the Fair. Altho nuich disappeared, some were lucky enough to get returns for it. • 30. All the old boys are drilling every morning, hoping to win in the competitive drill at the Dallas Fair.

Well, that old Tai-leton siiirit is once more reigning in full sway over the campus. The student body awoke this morning to find staling them in the face, huge signs with On v Tai ' leton and Fight.

To think how thrilling it would be to rush dramatically out of a burning building just before it fell. Of course after- wards it might be a trifle inconvenient to have no wearing a|)i)arel except a pair of shoes, one stocking, and an old |)air of pajamas, that were not even pretty any more. 12.

The most inspirational and dramatic pep meeting that has bei ' u held in Tarleton during my day occuried last Saturday night Ijcfore we left for Grubbs on Monday. There was tenseness in the air that was almost oppressing. Tf everyone would only feel their love for Tarleton all the time like that, and not just in ci ' ises. And after all. we just tied (irubbs. but that saved the championship. Only Meridian now is left. The Pine Arts department bi ' oadcasted last Tuesday iii.uht and it was a good program of course.

The play ••( ' ome Out of the Kitchen was a .scream! 1 didn ' t regret the price of admission one minute, ami I am suie the others did not either.

The Senior Carnival was the best they have ever had around in Ihese parts. Over the Carnival reigned a King and Queen who were gracious enough to mix with the crowd occasionally. I enjoyed it all even to selling balloons and canes for three hours. 2(1.

It seems so hard to start studying again but here goes — 1o make ID ' J ' ) successful. 1 heard to-day that Hernice Harlowe was married. She probably believes in that old adage, never put off until to-moi ' row, what ean be done to-day. But anyway, I wish her much happiness throughout life. 1 noticed too where Mrs. J. Thomas Davis entertained the Campus Club (Sh! Here ' s a secret — when I first heard of the Campus Club I thought it was a club made up of those students, who had been campused, sometime while in school in Tarleton). Being entertained by the Dean ' s wife is one of the joys of being an old maid school teacher, or a profes.sor ' s wife, 1 suppose. Put- ting all frivolity aside, I am sure the members of the elub enjoyed themselves innnensely. Basket ball season is opening, and with nine letter-men back prospects look yi od. I feel like giving three rousing cheers for the basket liall men, and here ' s holding they win the state championship. 14.

The farmers short course has been held hei-e in school and has met with a considerable success. HniTay for the Plowboys! We (the team) played T. C. V. in basket ball and won the iianu 17 — 11. You don ' t need to tell nu ' we have a good team. 1 know it. •Ian. 21. Dean Davis has been ill. He had an attack of the influenza but now he is better. 1 hope he will soon be well. Excitement prevailed in the Dump last night. The Dean gave the faculty a banquet in the Dining Hall. 1 sat at the head of the stairs and peeped at all of the guests, to see how they weie dressed. It was rather damp, and I was afraid ' Sir. Lane would get wet and be ill, but he wm-e galoshes and brought his umbrella, so my fears were groundless. All of the members of the faculty enjoyed the ban(|uct if I take their word for it. The two Messrs. Froh entertained some of the students with .a party last Saturday night. Not being a music-student or having an - talent along iinisical lines, I did not attend but from all accounts the pait - was a howling success. 2mJ=£=25 One Hundred Seventy-nine _ t m£ M£ M m x . -;tm i 1 Q 5_- One Hundred Eighty i A Co-Ed ' s Diary Well, (lir I ' lowliiiys let ll(i v;n-(l l ' :iyiic dctVjit tliciii in hiiskcl liall in the l ' ii t liaiiic.

Jan. 28. One of the saddest occurrences in Tarleton was the death of Mi ' s. George, wife of llr. George, head of the Educatif}n Department. The entire student body was dee]ily grieved and extended theii- heartfelt sympathy to Mr. George and his little daughter Kathleen. On the 24th. the semester ended. T am ijiad one half of the school year is gone. Of course I like to go to school, but English authors and Chemisti ' y experiments arc so aggravating and uninteresting. The Plowboys eagers won another game. Although Decatur ha.s a cracker box for a gym, we defeated them one game on their own coui ' t aftei ' they had piled up the score 8 — 19 the night before. Our game was 23 — 12. Tarleton keeps winning; they defeated the Cougai ' s of jMeridian College 48 — 13. Three cheers and a tiger for the Plowboys.

This weather is not very conducive to stxrdy but who can be the judge, who knows but some student may burst into intellectual giants and geniuses of all arts, and bring upon Tarleton world renown praise.

All of her ideals, so it seemed, had been shattered. The future looked black indeed, for all of her wonderful prospects and anti- cipations had been reduced to nothing. It was to have Ijeen the first step in her career and now — she would never have a career — she wanted most of all to lay down and die. Her faith in humanity had been desti ' oyed, and she felt she could never trust a single soul again. The cause of her de.iected thoughts was to-wit : her dearest friend had taken, or in plain words, had stolen her most precious possession — the thing over which she had spent many long and weary but loving hours. ' I ' d l iei- i1 had meant cvei ' ything, and she felt tliat it was really good. It was a lovely fragment of a poem that Henrietta had A ritteii. It was the first timid outburst of an exuberant spirit — joyous with hoi)e and full of youthful fire. There was a prize offered for the best poi ' iii each year, written by a Senior, and Henrietta had resolved to try foi ' it since slie had first entered college as a Freshnum. She felt that literature should be her profession, for poetry was a part of her very being. Every lovely thing she saw was a poem yet she agreed perfectly with. Joyce Kilmer as he says in his poem. •■ llnnl.- I shall iii va- sn: A poem lovely as a tree. ' ' The poem she had written had won fir.st place so far, but she was not known as the author, for her roommate had handed the poem in under her name. The jirize had not been finally decided but there were only three days left before the prize could be awarded. There was only a comparatively small amount of money in the prize, but the winner always gained fame and recogni- tion from the outside. To Heni ' ietta the Fame and money were nothing, but the recognition was important because she intended making writing her vocation. But to return to her roommate, the one who had so wantonly stolen her poem. It is hard to describe her impersonally and impartially. She was weak, very weak, but is that an excuse or a thing to be coiidennied for? Madge, for that was her name, had been tempted beyond her strength, but her capacity for resisting temptation was not great. She had seen the poem lying on the table and resolved to hand it in as hers. Against her better judgment and against her conscience, she did so. She had some literary ability but she could never have written a poem like that short one of Henrietta ' s — The Vision of Youth . ladge was one of those weak yet somehow lov.-ilili ' characters that are so dependent upon strong willed jjcople. Henrietta loved iladge and had trusted her with anything and everything. Although she was conscious of the weakness of iladge ' s character, she thought it was of a noble nature. But when Henri- etta fully realized that iladge had deliberately taken her ]ioem and passed it as hers — it was too much for her to cope with intelligently and coherently. It seemed contradictory to everything that had been in the past. Anyway, one ' s best friends didn ' t steal from them except in books — it I ' cally couldn ' t be so. What would she say to Madge? What could she say? She had no proof that she was author of the poem and if she did she could iH)t expose Madge for the sake of what she had been to her. Now, Madge was nothing to hei ' , not even an . -m f 1 Q 5 !3: ( ? One Hundred Eighliiii , m GJ ASSBUIIR) vrn A Disillusioned Soul (CoMinued) enemy for she did not think that much of her — she was too contemptible to have even for an enemy, for one ' s enemies are usually fairly honorable. The click of the doorknob interrupted her train of thoughts and iladge walked in. When she saw Henrietta she started to say somethino; but Henrietta spoke first. Never mind, Madge, about explaining. Explanations are too late now. I suppo.sc wc have to continue roommates but never address another word to me for I shall nevei ' speak to you again. You see in me the result of your work, for you have completely destroyed my faith in everyone. I trusted and loved you and now 1 see it has been thrown away. My one I ' eciuest is that you ignore and avoid me as I intend to ignore you. After saying thi.s in a cold voice. Hcnrietia diy-e ed but with a look that was far sadder than tears turned abruptly away and began busily arranging some books on the table. Madge looked as though she intended to speak, l)ut she remained silent. There was a look of dejection and misery on her face tlial would have melted a heart of stone, had it a single soft spot, but Henri- I ' lta ' s had not, for she had verily become a cynical unbeliever in mankind. That night while tossing restlessly upon hei- bed. Henrietta resolved to make one more attempt for the prize by writinsr another poem. She would lint be () easily defeated. The next two days . ' he spent in writing numberless pdini- and tearing them up. She had talked to lU) oiu and Madge had avoided iuT I ' .ii1hfull -. Heniietta only thought how Madge must have never cared when she had been so sure her love for .Madge was returned. The disappointment of it! The bitter disillusionment! Tlien suddenly she snatched a piece of paper and began to write furiously. She poured out her inmost thoughts, in relief, for the - were killing hei-, cooped up in her mind and heart -the outburst was a l)oem of uiui- ual strength — it was the shadow of a soul on fire for she iiad suftVicd the agonies of the condemned. She felt that there was nothing The i)oem she • prize asked ti heiglits as she to live for in a world where love and faith were dead. A Disillusioned Soul . It won the prize and the great poet who awarded tin the author of it. Henrietta was elated l)nt not to such have been before. This great poet lecogiiized in llenrii ' tta ' s poem jjromise of great and also hei ' cynical attitude and asked her why. (He knew how easily is disillusioned and how l)itter is the realization when they find their i( feet of cla ). lleni-ietta told him everything and he explained to her take.

She foigave Madge, whom she realized was her infeiior cliaracter, and although she could never respect hei- again, siie pitying love for her. Henrietta wrote many wonderful poems but never another of the nature of A Disillusioned Soul for she never felt the inspiration again. She ceased to have such perfect ideals or rather she became more human in her .iudgments and more lenient in her outlook. —Mnrcjnref Mi)i(jus Oiii H mill ml I ' lijhtir ir 2--.

Hot air! Hot air! I said to myself. Pa will be mad by to-morrow. Well Ih ' ury. said ila, (that ' s pa ' s name) I ' m going to resolve not to spend any mort ' money ftU ' elothcs than 1 liave to. That ' s fine. Martha, that ' s fine. I knew you were sensible. I kiH ' w it was coming, but 1 was ready for it. Pa turned to me and said, William, (that ' s my name) what is you resolution? Motlier and I have made ours, and 1 think that it is only fitting and proper that you should join in our sacrifice and resolutions. ' . Well. says I, I ' m going to keep plenty of wood cut at all times. There Henry. .Ma up and said, 1 always knew the buy had your good judgment. This c(jncluded the meal so pa went to the office and ma went to town to inspect the January clearance sales. Pa was in fine spirits that night at the table so ila opened up the talk by mentioning the fact that she saw some very good bargains at the sales. Pa still wore a serene look for he still remembered ma ' s resolution. There was the cuti ' st hat at Goldstein ' s that I ' ve ever seen, ma said, and the funniest thing haiipened. While I was looking at it the sales lady came up and said, could I sell you a hat ; Irs. Ball? ' and I said, ' you could if I would buy one. Wasn ' t that a good one Henry? I ' ll i et that woman won ' t ask fjuestions ne.xt time. Ha! ha! L ut it was such a dear hat that I just couldn ' t leave, and the cleik said it was s,, inexpensive. Only rourtcen niiity- two. So you see, deal ' , I just had to buy it at that price, and 1 really -onldirt wait a whole year for a m ' w hat. That ' s a iioor excuse, pa said, so William anil I arc the only ones left in the rai-e. Personall I think that William is already defeated. After dropjiing a few iiidrc words of wisdom into t]i( ears of his attentive family he got u]) and said. William. 1 wish you would build a nice big fire in the living riium I ' irc ])lacc while I n up staiis and change into some more comfortnl)lc clothes. One Hundred Eighty-seven ■ tGJlASSBU hm The Same Old Tale (Cnnnnucd i Fellows, that hit me hard, for I had plumb forgotten to put any wood during the afternoon. I just sat there and tried to think up an excuse. Pa wasn ' t gone long before he came tearing down the stairs sixty per. The old boy was blue at the gills, and I knew that he was ma l about something. Who in the ding dang deuce used mII of my tooth paste? he shouted. I had enough left for two more times when 1 loft at noon and now I can ' t even find the tube. Well, this little outburst let him out and I was as good as the same. Now Henry, be a nice little lioy and go sit liy the fire and work the puzzle. said a soft, gentle, kind, crooning female voice from the kitchen. Pa went in, i)ut it wasn ' t long before he called, Oh. Wil-li-uin come here. ' I didn ' t have any idea what he waiilcMJ. Imt I ' liiiosity led mc astray. There was pa standing by the cold firci)lace. William said he, the fire doesn ' t Imiii well. Diihi ' l you use plenty of coaloil to .start it with? ■■ No SII-. 1 said. 1 didn t need any. Ah! Some of your i)oy scout lore I dare ay, jia muinuiicd. ' ' P y the way, son, I wonder if a little moic wood would make it burn better, and ah, oh -es! I suppose you cut jdenty lo-da ? I liaibrt. so five iniiuitcs later 1 was iuisy at the wood pile. .Vtter the tire w.is blazing good, I found an ea! y chair and began to think this .New r;iv resolution stuff over, and this is the way 1 doped it out. It seems to lie (piite the thiiii; few everyime to make a lot of crazy resolutions at the end of every year lo lircak in the New Year. Just as soon as we resolve something we are temjited. and as soon as we are tempted most of us give it iip- The sub.iect of resolutions furnishes more chance for eon- versation than the next door neiirhliors. .Making resolutions is a great help to us. We fool ourselves into thinking that we have willpower, nerve, backbone, .stamina, and ancestors enough to hack our resolutions. If it is a sin to lie. resolutions shouldn ' t he allowed. A liroken resolution shows us one thing. We could break another one .just as easy. — iniw: I, II nil) A I f- ' 5v J mK.n 1 ' Q 5 i :S yx crs; l)i)c II II ml nil Kiiilihi-iiiiht ' ; GI ,SSBUIiro i ; Dont rv me. -j §mm: MM ]Su w We not ' u-c that Woavrr is a vory can ' t ' ul (ihserver. for once when ho was ill Dalhis and stinlyin ' the iicat thioni!- of ])( ' (ipl( ' . he iiiaile this I ' emai ' k: There are mure jienph ' in DaUas durinL; the week than are in ( arhon on Satur lay.
