Ro.sy-red cheeks, brilliant, brown eyes and black, wavv hair — hold back the stag line while I proceed — are among the physical attractions of Dot. Rut if you were fortunate enough to be in her Economics class ami hear her talk of bimetallism, mercan- tilism, and the ' favorable balance of trade ' as if they were companions she had grown up with, you would realize that ' beauty without brains ' is scoffed at by Dot. ' We are trulv glad that Dot decided to stay in Staunton this win- ter and give Mar - llaklwin a chance to know her and her ' school girl complexion. ' IRCIXIA CAROLYN HENDKRLITli GASTOMA, NORTH CAROLINA Literary Graduate -ir..inia aluav makes us think of something we read somewhere about pansies fur ' thouoht.

This tiuK- ifs one of those dainty, little ever-greeu vmes that twines itself daintilv an.l unobtrusively ar„und everythmg in s:ght, an,l then proves to have an amazing strength after it ' s once established N -e don ' t think any one who knows X ' irginia could dislike her if they V n„te,l tr, And no one wants to, because she makes you love her with- out vour being in the least aware of it. That she is really brilliant you may judge frmu the fact that she is a literary graduate. I he Senior Gass of ' 24 is immensely proud of its president. I R( ; 1 Xl.V j AXE AARO S( )X ABERDEEN , MARYLAND Graduate in J ' oicc There are song birds and song birds and song birds. Poets have written of them since poetry was invented — the skylark, the thrush, the nightingale and others. Rut we can ' t help thinking how much greater the poems would have been if the poor authors could only have heard ' ir- ginia sing. ' Course, we don ' t mean to intimate that X ' irginia is a bird ' not a bit of it. Ihit we ' d like to state very plainly that our hearts are moved with jiity fur those who liave not heard her sing. Rut le.st we leave you with the impression that she is possessed with the peculiar temperament that seems to accompany such talent, we hasten to add that she is one of the calmest creatures ever created. Ry putting two and two together, you have doubtless arrived at the conclusion that we are fond — Z ' crx fond — of ' irginia. Are we? IVc arc. MARY MARGARETTE E()RE. L X ELIZABETH CITY. NORTH CAROLINA Graduate in Voice There are two ' AL-injos. The hrst is a challen.ye to those who say aristocracy is a thing of the past. Cahii. dignified, and reserved she appears, unruffled bv most petty cares that distract us less fortunate mor- tals. The second is a Marge that is known by her friends. Here her dse cracks and pranks keep them in a continued tit of laughter. Gen- erous almost to a fault, she is always planning something she can do for one of her friends. And Margo is the girl of the wonderful, appealmg voice Have vou ever seen a long— silver moonbeam? No, neither have I or didn ' t recognize it on sight, but just try to imagine how beautiful one looks— and vou ' ll have the wav Margo sounds when she sings. Sounds mixed up— but it ' s reallv simple. I cannot attempt to describe it : come and hear it yourself— and the management guarantees satisfaction or money back ! lARGARET GAGE HUTCHINSON, KANSAS Graduate in Voice What ' s in a name? Ah, there is much in these five letters — Peggy. No other name could so well express the naive personality of ils owner. Appearing in all of our collegiate theatricals, there is n(i character she so loves to portray as that of the little school girl with a huge, red hair-ribbon and a lemon lolly-pop. Ingenuously piquant and youthful she may be, but if you ' re seeking someone to put it across — ask Peggv. She never refuses, and with her aid, removing mountains is simple ! As another proof that good things come in little packages, the gods added to Peggy ' s naive personality a charming voice. 1 can but propose a toast to our much loved ' girl from the Golden West. ' sHiRi.i ' :v lll ' (iHESH. :s DRISTOI.. TENNESSEE Graduate in Voice What ' s the matter with the s.vni tonight? Where ' s the pep. the music - lust a minute. -SlnrM-r-ley, oh Shir-r-r-ley, come on down. Sure we kn. w the antidote for a chtll time! Spari ling Shirley! She is he enthodiment of Mrs. Glvn ' s all-de.sirable It. Whether It consists of the twinkle in her eve, the little twist at the corner .,t her month, or just her radiant personalitv, we do not kn(,w. We rather think It is a result of their happy combination. Watch cut-here she comes, a •andsome waiter with a dance that would send us less fortunate mortals to the Infirmary for a month. Now listen while she sings, for Shirley ' s beautiful, appealing voice is a gift which the gods give but to few. ,The realization of her heart ' s desire is the wish Mary Baldwin makes ior one of her most loved, most admired, and most gifted Seniors. RLTU l .LA .MU 1 ' :R ' PAULDING, OHIO Graduate in J ' ioliii It has always seemed to us that in the hllk- ])iL ' ce of wood compris- ing a violin, there is caged the soul of nuisic. And only artists can release that soul for even a little flight. When Rutli draws her how across the strings of the instrument we hear real mus ic. She makes )-()u feel the music, because she loves it so intensely herself. ' e expect her to go far. But music isn ' t the only talent she possesses. She has the most valuable of all gifts — that of making friends, real friends, too — not just acquain- tances. Coupled with both those she has a certain distinctive air or poise that marks her as an individual. She has been a real part of our class life, and we are proud to name her as a graduate of ' 24. xAlARlUX i ' ALMER OTTAWA, ILLINOIS Graduate ni I ' oicc M. P.— Military Police, eh? Not on your life! M. P. at iMary iialdwin stands for a wonderfully rich and beautiful contralto voice to which, in some unknown way, Marion Palmer got her self attachecl. What she did to deserve such a beautiful voice we do not know, and she refuses to [ art with the formula ! Maybe it was her sweet disposition that attracted it, though we ' ve always been told that opposites attract. But certainly this is so, if there is anything sweeter than Marion ' s voice, it is her personality. Even her room-mate confirms this verdict, and room-mates know. Now look at the picture above and wonder how it is that a girl with such beautiful brown eyes and wavy hair can also be so accomplished. It ' s the thing which has been puzzling us for a long time. MARY MACOX PET ' lA JOIIX LYNCHBURG. VIRGINIA Graduate in I ' oicc a)ul I ' iaiio Wt give you the lily maid of Astolat. Really, that superior calm of Macon ' s seems touched with something actually ethereal — a something that makes it very lovely. And when she sings she really and truly looks just like an angel. That isn ' t just said for effect; we say it because we mean it. Instead of the proverbial golden spoon, this lovely lady seems to have been born with the gift of music, for she plays the piano just as well as she sings. If you ' ve ever heard her do either, you can judge the other. If you ' ve heard her do both, you ' ll agree that we are truth-lovers. If vou ' ve never heard her at all. why then you ' ve some- thing to live for. Somehow, she makes us feel that this noi.sy age is not the proper setting for her — the beautiful silks and stately manners of the olden davs seem more to suit her. But since we ' re living now, we ' re glad the middle ages lost a jewel out of their setting. LUCILK COX BRISTOL. TEXXESSEE Graduate in I ' laiio If vc hat] the rr-nicknaniinsi uf this winsome lass, much as we like her present one of Tontsir, we ' d he inchned to that more expressive one (if Cuddles. Now we hope you have the same impression of that name that we liave, ' cause ours is the most favorable one possible. Anyway, Tootsie just couldn ' t hel]) making a favorable impression to save her life. Besides being about the most attractive piece of femininity you ' ve ever seen, she plays the piano in a way strongly reminiscent of Paderewski and Bachaus and others of that ilk. You can hear pianos from prac- tice hall ' most any time of day or night, hut wlien you hear one that takes on a most individual tone, you may know that Tootsie is playing. Of cour.se her interests are many and varied, but we strongly suspect the one nearest her heart attends a nearby Universit}-. Well, he ' d better trv and deserve his lucl - - ' cause we think she ' s one of the finest. LL ' C ' PAGE COFFMAX OAKLAXD. CALIFORNIA Graduate in Art The girl from the Golden West came galloping in on her milk white steed just four years ago. And now she is preparing to mount her cliarger and gallop back again : and this time she carries in her hand — not a lance or sword or pistol — hut a diploma in Art. According to our way of thinking she ought to have two, for since the day of Raphael there ha;: been no more talented paint-slinger. ' Tis true she ' s a somewhat bashful, blushing Lucy, hut that only adds to her charm. Imagine any one know- ing how to blush these days! And she does it beautifully, without the least effort and with little or no provocation. And also, this versatile lady has a deadly fascination for the new girls. Each fal l witnesses new cas- ualties, but here ' s the .strange part — all of them stand the test of time and ripen into beautiful friendships. In fact, we know of no one with more real friends. .And so, we can say of her — what ]icrhaps is the highest praise of all — we feel ourselves better for having known her. Ellie-ness ELEANOR LEWIS FOLK NASHVILLE, TEXXESSEE Gradmiic in Art W - ha e had to coin the word. We searched in vain for one that would deseriho her. For a time we thought distinctiveness wa.s the word. l ut thai tailed lo express Ellie ' s impelling charm. Then we decided on magnetism, but tlial left unsaid her distinctiveness. So we ' ve coined a word to express so rare a combination— Ellieness. And that word has a world of meaning for Mary Baldwin. It represents the striking personali ty that has all the attributes of a model Cotillion Club president. Just enough sophistication, just enough reserve, to add greatly to her charm. And game? Ellie ' s a sport clear down to her arched instep. The ' hite team can imagine no tragedy greater than to have been with- otit its raliant center. And draw? Well, if there ' s anything better looking than Ellie ' s sketches it ' s Ellic herself! She has our admiration and love. KMTTA FANNIN CONEY SAVANNAH, GEORGIA dnnlinitc in Ii.v ycsskin There was a little girl, and she had a little curl Right down the middle of her forehead. Yea, that ' .s Coney. For never has she appeared without that curl. It may be the curl that first attracts attention, but it ' s Coney that holds it. Completely inoculated against gloom and full of pep, she is the cen- ter of most of our activities. If it ' s basketball you ' re watching, you mav be sure that the bloomer-athlete sprawling on the floor with the ball clinched between her knees is Coney. H your romantic instinct is aroused by the masculine perfection of the hero in one of our plays, you may safely bet that Retta ' s feminine heart is beating beneath that faultless tuxedo. And would you like to know who is editing this annual? Well, I suppose you ' ve already guessed, so three rousing cheers for OL ' R i :DITOR. KATI!-: DAIJ ' . .MnX ' HI-.LL W AVCROSS.

When you hear her sing and play at least you are sure y..u liehold m entirety the quaintly demure, sweetly j ' .ccomplished girl of the southland. But how this picture is shattered when you hear her putting Demosthenes to shame without even gonig to the trouble of practicing with pebbles. Have you ever read anything in the Miscellanv that sounded like Longfellow, Kipling and Stevenson, all rolled into one? W ' dl. notice it again and you ' ll find after it these modest initials, K. D.

I can only say to them— meet Katie Dale and then try to forgive me for not prais- ine her more ! GLADYS WAHXETA 1 ' ARKI:R RAPHINE, MRGINIA Post-Gradualc in J ' nice Words fail us. Of course, we can say that we are now presenting a post-graduate in voice, hui how can those words convey to you just how well this damsel can sing? She graduated la.st year — ii. ' (- thought with all the honors possihle. But lo ! she spends the summer in Chicago gathering fresh laurels and then comes back to us to graduate all over again. And you can rest assured that we were more than delighted. Why we almost feel as if we were attending grand opera when Gladys sings. If you ' re inclined to be the least bit skeptical — just hear her sing once — that ' s all we ask — just once — and you ' ll he converted. Wonder it there ' s such a thing as a post-post-graduate. If there is, we wish she ' d be one; if there isn ' t — we wish she ' ll be one anv wa ' .

Senior Class History Three years ago, the class of 1924 was formed, witli a few illustrious excej)- tions. There are fourteen of us, a number meaning unusual brilliance. One sunny day Miss Higgins called us — the selected few — together, and when the meeting was over we strutted out, full-fledged juniors with a large quota of self-importance. ( )ur officers were: N ' irginia llenderlite, the lonel - star-boartlei of Academic fame, president. Katie Dale Mi tchell and Macon Pettyjohn were vice-president and secretary-treasurer respectivelv. Of course Miss Schoolar was chosen as our patron and we couldn ' t have fnund a worthier one. ( )ur colors, by a startling majority, were proclaimed lavender and gold — our flower, wisteria, while our motto wavered undecided till oin ' Senior Year. It is Occasio, Fides, Succcsstis, and if we live up to that we ' ll be all right ! The crew of this Ship of State are all among the most popular, brilliant, and outstanding girls of the school. To begin with, ( )le N ' irginia has two stai ' representatives in Macon Pettyjohn and Dorothy Bowman. Macon graduates in voice and piano ! And speaking of voice and piano, you ought to hear her ! Some day (ialli will have to be looking to her laurels and F ' aderewski to his medals. Beside that, she ' s one of the sweetest girls vcju coidd meet. K eryone lo es her. We ' ve heard that many of the opposite se. tlock .around her. Xo wunder! l)ot is unluckily — (for us) not a boarder. She is the co-worker with ' irginia Hen- derlite in Academic, and we all know she works too, and is awfully smart. ' irginia Naronson has put her native heath, Marvland, on our class ma|), and is another voice graduate. Honestly, ou just shiver with delight when she sings I At the far end of the .Senior table she sits and kee|)s ever dne in a con- tinual roar! It ' s dry wit. Cieorgia sent two more satellites to helj) light the world with ' 24 ' s brilliance — Katie Dale Mitchell and Retta C one , both Ivxpressioners. (Let me pause for a word here.) Katie can make tears of ecstacy pour down one ' s face when she recites in low tones The Wheels of Time. liesides being known as the ' prettiest and an e- ]jressioner, she can sing and pla ' so well that ' ou wonder what she will do next.

She ' d rather draw than eat dypsv cream! I ' ait that ' s not all— she ' s a mighty popular girl. There we are. I ' uture — look out ! The crowning event of our junior existence was the Junior-Senior Banquet — at the Kalorama. h vening gowns, toasts, u ' everything, and everyone had a glorious lime! ( ' e did. anyway, and the class of ' 2,i must have ' cause merely to he with us is a time in itself. Ask any ' 24!). W hen we came liack this year we joined once again — this time as the only ones in captivitv — those lordly articles — Seniors. We told everyhody ahout it! Not to meniiou ilie dear ole Senior Tahle ! It ' s another of the Senior advantages. There we do everything we ' re not s ' posed to do. It ' s gr — rand!!! Wlu-n college privileges began to leak out. we copped all the flood! We ' ve enjoyed Sally — Irene — and Mary (who will not forget to remember that darling Jimmy Ilugan — and Time Will Tell? ) and numberless movies, to which the common herd were not invited ! To be a Senior is to be something, let us tell you ! Our greatest moment (so far) was tlie Junior-Senior Banquet, again at the King ' s Palace, (laugh that one off!) with us as the guests this time! After — or between, a marvelous dinner, we were told we were the most perfect, best, most — etc., etc., etc.. Seniors that had ever trod the halls of lary ]: aldwin, and we came away vastly satisfied with ourselves and the Juniors, who showed exceptional comprehension and brilliance. And so — while those who are left without our enlightening presences in these lialls of learning are thinking of us. let them be assured that the class of ' 24 is out in the great wide world, making its motto a reality. — Lucv Page Coi-fmax.

And now — the pause indicates that we are searching for striking words to present a more striking fact, but perhaps the best way after all is just to say it. This young lady will be the first to obtain the degree of A. B. from the Mary Baldwin College ! You ' ve good right to be overwhelmed — its an over- whelming fact. Why. it ' s almost like being Henry Ford or something like that! But pardon the digression, ' hat we mean to say is that we ' re mighty proud that Elsie is to have this honor. Of all the people we know she is the one we ' d choose. She has all the qualifications — she has more than her share of brains — she is possessed of an original wit — and she has that intangible qualitv — person- ality. .And besides all that — we love her. The Seminary is ]iroud of her foster- child — the first college graduate. She Stands Alone You know, tlicrL- ' sonieiliing about a pioneer ol any sort that intrigues the imagination innnensely. ' ou wonder what they are h ke. what made them pio- neers, and if you yourself have anything in comnidu witli tliem. You can imagine them in all sorts of situations and dangers and woiider wliat vou would do in their place. When it was first announced that the .Seminary was to become a College, it seemed almost as remote as a castle in Spain. The Seminary had been a Seminary so long that it was hard to think of it as anything else. It could hardly be recognized as a College until it had some graduates, and they seemed far, far in the future. All this goes to show what strange fallacies may possess the minds of mortals. Upon the opening of the first nominal year of the College, we had a senior — Aliss Elsie Jones — the pioneer — the trail-blazer. In a recent interview, th.e President of this first College Class told us that though there niight be strength in numbers, she had found from experience that there was also much truth in that other saying: United we stand — divided we fall. She went on to say that never in all her life had she known of more perfect co-operation than is shown by the member of this class. At the class meetings there is n(ine of that little pettiness and misunderstanding that is so apt to arise at such occasions. . 11 the elections are unanimous and the understanding be- tween ofificer and class well-nigh complete. Miss Jones is to be congratulated on the able manner in which she has steered her class to graduation. The Mary Baldwin Seminary has had many distinguished graduates. She has educated many noble women who filled important places in life with credit to their Alma Mater. The very best we can hope for the Mary Baldwin College is that she will graduate from her halls as worthy women as the old Seminary. And her first graduate is almost a prophecy, . t any rate she sets a high standard for those who follow. If the graduates to come follow the trail that Elsie has blazed. the - ma - count themselves among those who have done their verv best. f ' JOTjrOR CLASS i ■R.f ATlTJN I. 4 2 .

For my part I ' m glad 1 was horn an American, and ipso facto with the lingo — because I know if I had the mis- fortune to be a foreigner I ' d never acquire a knowledge of this jargon that we speak. Think — so many words sound exactly alike and mean ditTerent things: and so many sound unlike and yet mean the identical thing! And not only that — look at abbreviations ! They ' re the most puzzling of all. Xow will you tell me how one is to know whether Del. stands for Delaware or Delicatessen! Or if Penn. stands for the State or The Pennington with the famous knees? Or if M . means doctor, state, or is just short for mud? Of course if you are born into the midst of such things you gradually come to learn to distinguish between them after a fashion. lUit native born — though 1 am — 1 am free to confess that I have found one that jnizzles me. Its — s-o-p-h. Looks easv at first, doesn ' t it? i ' ou think right away of .Sophomore — and that ' .s all right. It may mean that — but how do you kiur,,. ' that it doesn ' t stand for sophistication? Ha! I ' ll bet you never even thought of such a possibility, but now that I ' ve pointed it out, I ' m sure you ' ll agree that the meaning may be ambiguous. I ' ll admit this thing has wor- ried me a lot; I ' ve allowed it to prey upun my mind — I shouldn ' t I know — but I have. It ' s rather like that old potent question — will |etif ever be as tall as Mutt ? — but not ([uite so baffling. On that latter, you could think till doomsdav and then there ' d be some ) .s- on both sides. But the solution of my problem is compara- tively simple. But remember, it took a lot of meditation for me to reach this momentous conclusion! Now that I ' ve got )our curiosity to fever heat, I ' ll tell ou. You needn ' t worry alx.iut which denomination s-o-p-h stands for — because it stands for both — because both stand for each other! Sophomore sophistica- tion!

If you work at it long enough you can convince yourself that anything on earth can he either a vice or a virtue. It ' s rather like the theory that evervthing on earth has its good and had points — only more so. Just for instance — there are some people who consider publicity had form and worse taste under anv circumstances. And yet, if it wasn ' t for publicity look how many institutions of btisiness would sufifer — like the Kelly-Springtield Tire Co., and the theatrical profession, ' ou may wonder what all this has to do with Freshmen — but I ' m coming to that. I really think the two have a distinct bearing on each other. It ' s just this — I think I ' ve at last discovered what ' s the matter with Fresh- men. Their chief aim in life is to occupy the public eye — they thrive on pul)- licitv. I ' ll illustrate with a fable. Once a very wise and learned man was walking through the halls of the University that he himself had founded, and he was feeling proud. Suddenly the learned stillness was broken by the sound of wailing. Tvu ' ning to his (irand ' izier he demanded the cause of the disturbance — and the G. ' . replied: Sire, ' tis the late arrivals, the Freshmen, crying for a new toy — a bauble they demand — called Pub- licity. The learned one frowned. Do not pamper them. They are no more than other mortals. But wise though he was, it was here that he made a great mistake. He had yet to learn that I ' resh- men are oh, si different!. The uproar and battle continued until even he could not concentrate on Socrates or anyl)ody, so he waxed wrathful and bade his Grand ' izier give those ubiquitous Fresh- men all the publicity to be found anyivhcrc. Peace was restored — and concentration resumed. . nd to conclude, like all proper fables do — it is so, even to- day. So long as Freshmen are fed on attention, pampered with notoriety, and monopolize the public e_ ' e — ever_ ' l)ody lives happily ever after.

' That ' s the encouragement we ' ve been living on for twenty years, more or less. Each year, our implicit faith in humanity has made us hope that at last we would be recognized. But as each new, shining Bluestockim; comes from the press our hopes are shattered. Is the editor unfamiliar with our organization — an organ- ization that boasts of Ham as its president. ( Ham is the disgusting name he hears in Mary Baldwin vernacular, but in the dignified language of our club, he is never referred to except as Hamlet). Jant ' ' (known in our refined circle only as Jamlet) is our vice- president, and I (burdened with that absurd and frivolous title, Fuzzy, in complete dis- regard of Confuzzius, the name I am proud to own) am its distinguished (if I do say it myself) secretary! I ' ve noticed the Blukstocking devotes quite a few pages to the Cotillion Club, the Red-Headed Club, the Hockey Club, but never a word or a picture to show its recognition of that most exclusive, influential and intelligent order — the Do,g Club. Exclusive? Yes. there are but three of us. But such a trio! We can even hold U]i our heads among the famous trios of history. In fact, we have often favorably compared ourselves with The Three Graces. Nor were the Triumvirs themselves, in the old days of Rome, more influential than we are now. But after all, it is the famous Three Musketeers whom we most closely resemble. My very advent into this club was an act of chivalry worthy of any one of them. Miss Morse had been alone and unprotected so long that I came to take her under my care. Nor are my companions less chivalrous than I. Who. but Hamlet and Jamlet stand at their posts, bravely facing the Sunday array of S. M. A. ' s and A. M. A. ' s, when even Miss Williamson has been forced to desert? There is a peril in their iron stare that strikes terror to the heart that beats above two trousered legs. It is the watchfulness of our club that keeps all at a respectful distance. No girls were ever more faithfully watched ! But despite our front guards, should sotne sacriligious soul dare break into the inner shrine, who would sound the alarm? Ah, that is where my voice, roaring like a lion ' s, would come to the rescue and arouse the guardians. I hope I have awakened you to a sense of the gratitude and recognition _ ou owe The Dog Club.

Surel.v I would never have noticed her among all the old women who sell cakes on the Avcnida Central, but that my oiTice door opens just across the street from her; whenever I glance up from ni_ - desk, or saunter to the door for a moment, I see her sitting with the tra - of cakes on her knees and her eyes fixed dreamily on a spot somewhere above the hntel of my door. There must be thousands of such women in Panama, with thin, yellow faces and scanty braids of gray, who chatter and bask in the sun, and sell cheap wares of some kind, and apparently live forever. P.ut Antonia— for that, she told me, is her name— less noisy than the others, more patient with the dirty children who buy her cakes, and with the far awa}- look in her old eyes, was somehow diiterent. and I used to wonder what in this hot, dull little town she thought alxnit. She is a friendly soul, and often lately has strolled across the street to ex- clrmge harmless gossip about the weather and the news of the pueblo: and be- cause it gives her much pleasure we often liuy and try to eat her hard cakes. To us it has been a casual intimacy, and I shall never know ju- t why, one even- ing, she tcjld me the pathetically simple story that explained the far-away look m her e es. Once upon a time, in the da}-s long before there was a girl named Antonia. She was a w drowsy little Central American town to have br Sisters who taught her by her eagerness to learn Americans overran the Isthmus, ide-awake, ambitious girl for a d. and had startled the kindly , Now, she was -orking in a bakerv to earn money for studies in Bogota, and s ' le was sin-e that some da ' she would go into the big world and become famous. She had as yet made no definite plans, except that she iikiist accomplish something great in the world. and was willing to work for it. Then during the beautiful, mad carnival season, she met Billy — Billy, just out of Hai vard, and as thoughtless and lovable a youth as ever left his native land in search of adventure. It was really inevitable that Billy should consider her the adventure — half the little town was at her feet already — and ju st as inevitable that she should worship Billy. Even the sight of her father and mother, fat, brown, and indolent, discouraged Billy not at all, and during the perfect weeks w-hen they strolled to- gether on the old sea-wall, they planned the time, not far off, when there would be a little wedding ceremonx- at Mrrcrdi ' s church, and tlie ' would sail — together — for the golden States. Suddenlv the bomb fell. It seems that I ' lilly had a conscientious friend who felt that his duty required interference. The letter to Hilly ' s father painted in glowing colors a picture of Billy — tied for life to a scheming little native girl, descended most likely from Africans and Indians. The reply was as swift as was possible in those days, and entirely to the point. Addressed to Antonia herself, it was full of horrible facts about an inferior race, and ideas in the States, and ruining Billy ' s career. The part about inferior races was new and strange, but she understood that in some way she would hurt Billy if she married him, and that for that reason she must send him back alone. And when a puzzled and disappointed boy had sailed for the United States, a determined girl tried to face life as fearlessly as before; but whether it was the dreariness of the future without Billy, or the ignomy of that cruel letter, or. as her neighbor said, the climate, the ambitious, joyful Antonia was gone and the girl who remained did not really care about studies in Bogota. Time has pr,ssed slowly for Antonia. Wars, revolutions, treaties, even the building of the great Canal, have gone on about her, and have not touched her. and she cannot count the dull years that have passed since the fairy da_ s of her girlhood. That is Antonia ' s story, or as much of it as she knows. The sequel I heard when I told it to Pirez, the venerable Spaniard who has retailed cigars and gossip fur over half a century. ' Tnteresting. Scnor, very interesting, nnirnuired Perez, and he leaned farther over the counter, with the enjoyment of the confirmed gossip who has at last found an audience. But cvidcntcnicntr the Scnor does not know the rest of the tale. Perhaps you have heard of the Watermelon Massacre of 1849. in which so many of your countrymen were killed? I was but a child myself then, but I remember that there were several pobrc .Imcricanitas whose parents were killed and whose very names were unknown to us. They were taken by kind people here and some of them never learned that they were .imcricanos — but the Scnor can guess the rest. Antoni;i w;is one of those children. — Mildred Ann Gill.

In this way friendl}- rivalr_ - is carried on in all athletics. At the end of the year siher loving cups are awarded to the winning teams. This year, in addition, an individual cup is going to be awarded to the best athlete. These cups are awarded by the use of a point s_ -stem, which was worked out at the lieginning of the year, allowing so many points for participation in basket-ball, tennis, hockey, cross country, and track. The girl making any of these teams re- ceives individual points and the one receiving the highest number will win the in- dividual cup. We turned our attention first to basket-ball. After many hard practices the varsity teams for both the Whites and the Yellows were picked. On Xovemljer 17th, these two rival teams met for their first battle, and after a hard-fought game the U ' hites emerged as victors. The next game was pla}-ed Thanksgiving morn- ing, and after a close and exciting game the ' S ' ellows found themselves victorious by two points. Excitement ran high, for each team had won a game. Anxiousl_ - the next game was looked forward to, each side hoping their team would win the final game. So, on December 13th. the last game was played. When the final whistle was blown, the Yellows came out with the big end of the score. I ' .oth teams played a good clean game. Heretofore, Mary lialdwin has had a liaseljall team, l ut this }ear a hocke - club was organized in place of baseball. We realized that in the girls ' athletic world, hockey meant more t han baseball. And though this is our first endeax ' or in this new sport, we hope it will pro e beneficial to our athletics. Judging from the number of girls that have joined the club, it will be a great success. Tennis has alwa s l)een a feature in our athletics. Each year in the spring, tournament is held in which doubles are played. Ilut this year, singles are to be played, owing t(j the fact that an individual cup is to be awarded to the best athlete. Some time during the first week in lay, track day is held at the farm. Everv girl in the school is eligible to enter any event. If she wins first place in any contest she is awarded a letter. . girl who during the year has made varsity on any of the teams or has hiked sixty miles receives a letter. It has ahvpys been the custom to award these letters the night after track meet. IPhite basketball Team Dorothy Exlini:, Ei.kaxor Folk, Xaniv Watkin ' S. Hei.kx Baylor, Marcarkt Deaxs (Caplahi).

Realizing ' that our territories were surrounded by such uncivil- ized and barbaric countries as A. .M. A. and S. M. A., our walls were modeled as closely as possible after the great wall of China. President Jeiiferson, m his first inaugural address, expressed our foreign policy, Entangling alliances with no nation. Let it be sufficient to say that President Higgins follows closely in his foot-steps. An all-inclusive non-intercourse act preserved us for many years a sepa- rate and distinct— not to mention ' peculiar people. But the growing democratic tendencies of the time have been felt even in our country, and the non-intercourse acts, passed to preserve us from alliances so dangerous to our peace and safety were attacked. The Social-ists in our midst object seriously to the isolation that our foreign policy occasioned, so to quiet internal disturbances, we have been forced to raise the non-intercourse act for two hours every Saturday night. And then such a rush as the foreign powers make for a chance to view our superior civilization from the vantage point of our parlor davenports! Even the far distant countries on the continent, such as Lexington and Charlottesville, send representatives, and our Saturday night parlors are (|uite co,smopoHtan with foreign officials of S. M. A., A. M. A., . M. L, W . L.. and Virginia. But never are they allowed to enter our territories without their diplomatic papers, and not even then, unless their names appear on the inter- course lists of our citizens, they are not received. But I see you are wondering how we keep these diplomatic foreigners from becoming a menace to our country. Ah I — the citizens of Mary Baldwin have themselves adopted measures for the limiting of their number. The most im- portant of these is the tariff. This tariff is payable in two coins — candy and flowers. Tlie tariff for protection is levied on the undesirables and is made so exorbitant that they are automatically excluded. The tariff for revenue is a very moderate tariff, levied on the more popular foreigners and only at a high enough rate to keep the bon-bon dish .stocked. But I now approach the sad chapter of my story. Every country has its Benedict Arnolds. Even Mary Baldwin is not exempt. In spite of our wise and dignified neutrality, there are a few citizens who betray us with unlawful alliances. This is commonly done from the windows by means of signs and lip-reading. So, sometimes an enemy has entered our territories by the betrayal of our policv. Smuggling is also a misdemeanor we have sometimes been .guilty of. In some unknown way, such counter-brand articles as chewing gum, rouge and dangerous literature have been slipped through the Williamson Inspection Bureau, but this trespassing of our foreign policy is generally scorned by true and loyal citizens. Our foreign policy has stood in the past for peace, happiness, and jirosjierity — mav it ever continue ! Weather HI,, ::ii!. ' :;t:n„„„ College Columns Circulation Annuiillv: I,?! ' , ' Hearst Inc.

' Tis not everyone who can grin. Just look about you and you can see the truth of this statement, after a gym class, or upon receiving F on a quiz. Character may he studied as well by the type of the grin displayed, as by the sweep of the letters in an autograph. For an interesting discussion on autography, the editor refers the readers to the March number of the Atlantic Monthly — (If his Editorial proves only half so valuable to the public the editors could die in peace. ) The grin with tlie curves of the mouth pointing to the heart, strange as it may sound, indicates a heart-less grin, and al- together not a jovial disposition. That grin is seen now and again on Monday mnrnin.ns at nine o ' clock in Academic Iniilding. The grin with tlie corners of the mouth pointing sky-ward reveals a heavenly dis- position and a spontaneous contagious atmosphere. This type of a person al- ways makes a good companion provided that .she doesn ' t develop into a disagree- able optimist, for, paradoxical as it may seem, there is such a thing as ultra-optim- ism. But, the best grin of all is just the pl-iifi and natural smile that captivates every- anc and wins iiu many friends. Finally, my readers, we do not ask vou to smile at everything in these pages.

AN ALLEQORIJ SLXCEKEST Al ' OLOGIE: LOXGFELLOW) Prelude This is just the mournful story ( lf a girl who went to college For to get an education. And to have a good time also. In the famous state, Virginia, In the little town called Staunton, In the Shenandoah Valley, Is a school named Mary Baldwin Where for years and even ages Girls have gone to get their training. That they might be great, illustriou.s — Might be fit to do their duty. You would never know tha: Alice Was a graduate of High School — She was slender, small, and pretty. Just the type you always think of .A.S the modern prep school Missie. When she came to Mary Baldwin She was greeted very sweetly — Ham and Jam in all their glory Thrust out paws to bid her welcome. Passed lier on then to the office. Soon, enrolled in all her classes, Alice grew to know and love it — Popular in the M. B. College With the girls, but not the teachers For poor Alice never tho ' t much And she got in pecks of trouble. .All her Saturdays were taken — Filled with working off demerits : Her reports were full of black narks; And the rep she left behind her For the future generations — It was fierce — oh ! it was tragic ! Let us shed a tear in sorrow. Let us whimp a tiny whimper. For the poor child ' s fate is .gruesome .And her end is far from peaceful. Every day she got in trouble, Every minute, every hour She was chewing gum. or dancin.g In the peaceful dormitories. She was at the window waving To some boys from S. M. A., Or she talked when ' twas forbidden -Always some crim-; she committed ( Here I needs must pause and weep some. For her lot was, oh so tragic) Alice, always small and slender. Got so small and got so slender. Bowed down by the many lectures. Sat unon by all the teachers Lost her health and lost her beauty. Got so thin she couldn ' t wiggle. Got so small they scarcely saw her. Still demerits showered on her. Still the lectures of the teachers Filled her every waking minute Until Alice — from a shadow Of her former brilli.mt splendor. Changed into a ghost and left us ! Died — and we were then without her ! AIOR.IL Just one word — I ' m almost thru! now, Vour attention one more minute We have come now to the climax To the moral of my story — And I needs must a.sk your pardor. I f I have seemed long or boring. I must ask co-operation For this part is so important. My advice to you — oh, hear it ! My advice — how can I tell it ? Vou must always, always, always, When you seek an education — Vou must alwav.s — C,ce, the bell ' s rung ! — R, H. ' CTdinl Fdirl For a teacher to give a test the morn- ing after a glee club show.

A Plunqe Into lUall Street Mary Baldwin, as well as other cities has a Wall Street. The thoroughfare is located just to the rear of Jim Nas- iums place, and is extremely accessible to those daring to take the plunge into its grasping depths. But alas ! few they . are wJio find their way thereto. Our Wall Street has a sound rock bot- tom, (this is rock bottom truth; if you don ' t believe it, di-re in and see.) But, as we have stated, only the most daring enter in. This is done in as many differ- ent ways as there are individuals. A great many walk in — appearing in the market only on the surface. Some go down the ladder, step by .step, until they become enclosed in its depths. A few plunge in at the becinning and these are of two classes : First, those who are crafty and can skim along clearly and beautifully ; second- alas ! those who real- ly strike the rock bottom truth and are .seen no more — perhaps. There are only two seats offered in Wall Street and they are often trans- ferred. L ' pon one is calmlv seated the Lord High Officiator of the Business Control. The other, made lone, is for the stretching out of those who have come into contact with the rock bottom! ! But. ofter all. be a snort. Come on in —the WATER ' S FINE!

Extreme unpopularity developed in a dozen or more frocks, w ' hile as many others were in great de- mand. In between these two extremes, the main body of the list, including the usual circulation among the ginghams and linens, swung idly back and forth within a narrow range.
