A Message from you'r ??incipal $0 the Glass of 1926 HE other day I heard a story that impressed me greatly. A Jape anese gentleman was showing an American friend his garden. As you know, the Japanese are very successful in making gardens in miniature and this was that kind. To the American, trees, shrubbery, hedges so small, seemed not especially attractive, and he was only perfunctorily polite. Finally, he was invited to a low seat and from this things assumed a different proportion and the plan was before his eyes. At the proper moment his host directed his gaze to a point where two tall trees seemed to hold the garden as an entrance. Rais' ing his eyes, he saw not the two trees, but Fujiyamaethe sacred mountain of Japane-lifting its royal head dominating the landscape. ilAhfl he breathed, llyou have annexed the mountainfl That is what I want you girls to do-annexu.the mountain. Much of the time you will dwell perforce at the foot,ibut keep your spiritual eyes on the top. Life and sunshine are there and even though sometime the storm clouds lower, it is not for long. Long, long ago the sweet singer of Israel sang, llI will lift mine eyes unto the hills, whence cometh strength? Strength still comes from the hills if only one remembers and tries to dwell there. The breezes of heaven blowing through the wide spaces will cleanse body and spirit and inspire to better thoughts and deeds. Annex the mountain. BEULAH A. FENNIMORE.
