Now at the cross-roads of our year, as we stand to- gether for one last time, may we look back and see again the gladness and the joy of a year well spent. May we gather to our hearts each friendship made, each lesson learned, each carefree hour of frolic, each bit of loveliness that caught our breath. And then, beautified and enriched by what has gone before, may we go forward gal- lantly, with heads held high, to face what is to come. _Β« v_ar _ _.ar k. : ,H : ( I For the labor, time and good will given by those who have helped us, the Battle- field Staff wishes to express its sincere thanks.

First β It is with pleasure we leave to the Class of 1927 The School Junk Pile (first floor, Frances Willard). Second β To the Sophomores, our sister class, we leave our affection and prayers that they may outgrow their goatish characteristics. Third β To the Freshmen we leave the fresh air on the campus, the jay- birds, the stone benches, Mr. McGhee ' s company on Sunday after- noon, and our Senior privileges, to be automatically accepted under the direction of Dean Tyner. Fourth β To the incoming Freshman class we leave the soft, easy fireside chairs and Persian rugs of Frances Willard parlor. Fifth β To the honored faculty we leave our dignity, intellect, uncommon common sense, and other assets and liabilities necessary for a better faculty. Si. ' th β To Mr. Chandler we leave our co-operation, the new wing of Virginia Hall, the Alumni Building, the swimming pool, and anything else along this imaginary line that he might happen to think of. Seventh β To Mr. Tyner we leave our attitude. Eiffhth β To Mrs. Bushnell, wc leave, in passing, all the tone on the hill that we had added. Ninth β To the Battlefield staff we leave an imaginary room in which to work, and as many Coca-Cola bottles as they desire. Tenth β To Miss Milligan we leave the Keep Off the Grass signs. 61 Hif hnlflnji l J I, Parke Anderson, do leave my athletic abilities to Kathrine Hatchett. I, Lily Mae Brooks, do leave my scientific mind to iVIary McLaughlin. L Margaret Brooks, do leave my history textbooks to another aspir- ing student.

L Lucy Houston, do leave my supply of Tales to Dean Tyner, to be reorganized and reconstructed in order to give new meaning to the present experience of his classes and direct the course of subsequent ex- periences. I, Mary Jeter, do leave my ability to day dream to Jack Harrison, so that she may know her name when called on. L Kitty Kessler, do leave to Kitty Murphy my flapperish ways. I, Luray Lewis, do leave my loquaciousness to Julia Ellison. I, Elizabeth Morrison, do leave my knowledge of medical science to Dr. Smith. 1, Louise Steuart, do leave my malapropisms to Cele McLaughlin, in order that she may become more intricate, prosaic and exotic. I, Margaret Sutton, do leave my huckleberries to Mrs. Bushnell. I, Ella Elizabeth Woody Talley, do leave my power to curl Dr. Young to Virginia Frazier. I, E. Frances Walker, do leave my taxi service to some aspiring Freshman. I, Juliet Ware, do leave The Judge to the entire class to choose from. O, Jericho !

The Freshmen lack all dignity, They lack sophistication; They came to college green as gourds To get an education. But what about the Juniors, Who ' ve been talked about in rhyme?

The gymnasium, with its side shows, ring, hot-dog stand, pink lemonade, and pic- turesque characters, was for three hours the scene of the reign of King Fun, Queen Frolic, and Prince Prank. Be- tween the acts of the Hawaiian dancers, the dolls, Madame ,, Yamashita ' s ballet dance, and the Charleston contest, the Chmese grab-bag girl proclaimed her wares; the policeman attempted to prohibit the mob from stampeding the ring, and the side-show players peeped through the doors of their booths. Once in a while a call for Pop pierced the air, while shrieks of laughter pealed out from those caught in the throes of a confetti battle. Though King Fun and Queen Frolic enjoyed the ring performers, they had to take in the side shows and see what feats Prince Prank had accomplished. Thinking that a swimming match would prove in- teresting, they went to that booth. To their surprise, they saw a match swimming in a tub of water. Desirous of seeing a White Monkey, they called on Mademoiselle Worth and saw β their faces in a huge mirror! The Queen called on the Million-Dollar Baby, which was no other than our co-operative Prexy. The King called on the death chamber, the Snake Charmer and Bluebeard ' s wives. Together, the King and Queen sought the wild man ' s cave, but because he and his woman were so primi- tive, their visit was short. Since the King liked bathing beauties and the Queen could swim, they dropped into that show and saw an eighteenth-century beauty dive off a stool into a sawdust floor. When they went in to see a ground hog and found meat, they concluded that Prince Prank had been up to enough tricks for a year and banished him from the scene β thus bring- ing their reign to an end. 5opk?

I will try. I do not know what to say. We came up here on Sep-tem-ber the 22d. We rode on the train. We did not like to leave our ma-mas and pa-pas. Some girls met us. They took us to the col-lege. We did not like it. We went to Mrs. Bush-nell ' s office. She took our trunk checks. She gave us a room. She scared us. We cri-ed and cri-ed for our ma-mas. Then we had to work hard. We play-ed bas-ket-ball. We beat the Jun-i-ors. We lik-ed to play bas-ket-ball. We went to some par-ties. It was fun. We gave some nice plays. Ev-er-y-bo-dy lik-ed them. Our col-ors are red and white. We beat the Soph-o-mo-res, too. Next year they say we will be Soph-o-mores. Won ' t that be nice? In the vermilion autumn of 1924 we resumed our scintillating career in this institution of higher learning. We ignored sublimely the vociferous Freshmen, conversed affably with the Juniors, and met the Seniors with dignity and serenity. Occurrences appeared to descend upon us always with overwhelming rapidity, but we met them with our philosophical calm- ness. Sports, practice-teaching, classes, faculty, parties are all decadent to our satiated senses. We have reached the heights of sophistication.

Before the Association can begin to realize these aims, its officers and Little Cabinet members should be trained. Part of this training is re- ceived at the week-end conferences, but by far the most of it is received at Blue Ridge, North Carolina, where delegates from this College meet with others from the South to spend ten ideal, happy, helpful days of work and play. Evidences of carrying out the Y. W. aims are seen in the opening of the session. The members become official introducers, guides and advisers to the new students. To cultivate the friendly spirit of comradeship and loyalty is one of the most important tasks of the Y. W. C. A. The ar- rival is followed by an informal get-acquainted party given the first Fri- day night of the quarter. The spirit and good-fellowship of the party is continued by the weekly Thursday teas, given in the attractively decorated tea room of the College, one of which every student and faculty member attends. From time to time, mass meetings and chapel programs are held to keep the students in touch with their organization. Thus does the Young Young Women ' s Christian Association seek to make God real in the mind and heart of every student in the College. - 145 The. hnlllRJiolJ Officers Juliet Ware President Emma Cooke Fii et-President Dorothy Tiller Secretary John Ruff Treasurer Jane Whitehead Undergraduate Representative Katherine Micks Ex-Officio Miss Margaret D.

Seek only to win by fair and lawful means, according to the rules of the game, and this will leave you without bitterness toward your opponent or shame before others. Take pleasure in the game, even though you do not obtain the victory, for the purpose of the game is not merely to win, but to find joy and strength in trying. If you obtain the victory which you have so desired, think more of your good fortune than of your own skill. This will make you grateful and ready to share with others the honor bestowed upon you, and truly this is both reasonable and profitable, for it is but little that any of us would win in the world were our fortune not better than our deserts. The Athletic Club is truly an organization for the students. It is the most demo- cratic of all clubs on the campus. Any one interested in sports is eligible and wel- come. It endeavors to broaden and enlarge the life of the students by giving them a wholesome form of recreation and an interesting program of athletics. The Varsity is financed by the Club, and it was responsible for the splendid inter-collegiate games played this season. In the spring it arranges for inter-collegiate contests of tennis. It not only provides for organized athletics, such as hockey, baseball, basketball, tennis and all class teams, but it also includes hiking, swimming and horseback riding in its activities. No girl need be a physical education major or a star in athletic s in order to belong to or enjoy the Athletic Club. It is the most earnest desire of the Club to benefit the average girl, and to give her, in the biggest possible form, the sports she will most enjoy. -154 Officers Bernice WooDj President Sallie B.

They do not swallow swords, nor do they drape themselves with snakes. They are quite successful, how- ever, in elemental trapeze work, though they use reins, bridle and stirrups in place of the customary rings. Sad to say, though they are expert at falling, they have not yet learned to land gracefully. Some prefer the ditches. Others have an overwhelm- ing affection for hillsides, particularly if the slope is of sufficient angle to insure a slide to the bottom, and there is a car nearby to give a slight send-off. . . . Still others dip quickly under the protecting body of the horse, blissfully optimistic in regard to hoofs. The prize tumble was given in the presence of two Fords and a buggy. The Tumbler took a slow, sideways twist, descended in a para- bola, landed in the center of the road with feet outstretched, head on one side, crop held triumphantly aloft in one hand, while with the other she clasped the reins of Billy, who stood looking in gentlemanly amazement at such strange conduct. The Tumblers are nothing if not dramatic. Did not Deronda Jones sweep from the back of Buck, place herself in his path, while he placed his foot upon her head β a perfect dramatization of the Seal of Virgmia, the Sic Semper Tyrannis alone being lacking? Ruth Brown and Kath- -162- InTwenli f leen Kessler are also advocates of this personal touch system. The puzzling thing about this is that after each personal touch the rider cele- brates by visiting the infirmary. One of the most enthralling scenes of the year took place in the fall. For two hours an exhibition of broncho-busting, hitherto unparalleled east of Wyoming, took place on the road between Faculty House and Vir- ginia Hall. The struggle ended with the horse and rider seeking refuge in the stable, the one voluntarily, the other involuntarily. What transpired within is forever lost to the public. All we know is that the intrepid Wal- lace ventured in, emerging shortly, accompanied by the actors of the little drama, reluctantly following a rein ' s distance behind.

The white clouds, Irjf g0 M ' he sunshine, the blue waves, and even the noiseless ' seagulls, seemed to defy the existence of anything other than happiness in all this great blue world. But unhappiness did exist, even on this king of the beautiful waves. Joyce Terry, as she sat watching the long path of white foam which led from the moving ship to the distant horizon, wondered wearily if her path of desires would always lead to the intangible. She felt, like the moving ship, that each moment was carrying her away from all that had meant happiness to her. Her thoughts went back to one year ago, when she met and defeated the champion in tennis singles at her college. A slight mist came before her eyes as she remembered that last serve which brought victory and caused all of Sargeant to go mad. During the illness which had caused her heart to weaken she could hear those cheers again and again β and it seemed they would split her throbbing head. Dad was awfully decent to send her off on this wonderful trip to Europe. But what did it matter where she went? There could never be any more glorious tennis, and golf, and horse-back rides. What fun could there ever be in just watching the other fellow have a jolly time? Joyce ' s eyes traveled from the blue and white sea to the man who was pacing the deck a few yards away. Why didn ' t this big, strong, healthy-looking individual jump into those inviting waves and race the boat in a delicious swim? That would be great! And she found herself thinking that this six-feet-three could give the long grey monster a close chase. She sighed wearily, and closed her eyes. What did it matter? That evening as Joyce stood gazing at the sunset she was thrilled through and through at the sight which she felt one saw only a few times during a lifetime. The world was glorious. Overhead the sky was sapphire β turning gracefully into rose as it neared the -191 western horizon β and finally blended into a brilliant and gorgeous gold. A few snowy clouds here and there were edged with gold against the blue background; and the white caps on each wave sent up tiny sparks which gave the impression that it was lined with jewels. In the midst of all this glory was the sun, reigning supreme in his gorgeous palace. Joyce wanted to jump over the railing, walk right up that shining path of glory, and kneel before the King of the Universe. After all, isn ' t just being alive all that matters? Joyce turned at the sound of a man ' s voice at her elbow. His eyes were on the sunset, and she knew from his expression that he was hardly con- scious that he had spoken. Yes, being alive is all that matters, Joyce responded, but what a world of meaning is contained in the two words ' being alive ' . Durwood Hall turned to Joyce. He studied her profile a minute and then asked, And what meaning do those .two words hold for you? Surely there is nothing which could possibly surpass this golden world in which we now stand. A sight such as this is the meaning of being alive. It is wonderful, Joyce conceded. But is not ' sunset ' merely a transient mood? What have we left when it is gone? She waved her hand toward the west. The clouds had turned to grey. The bright colors had faded, and the sea was an expanse of white and black. Life means no more to me now than it did before. And, she added softly, that is less than nothing. Tell me why, pleaded this tall, boyish-looking individual. Joyce recognized him as the man who had paced the deck that morn- ing. She hesitated. Something about those serious brown eyes made her want to tell their owner her idea of being alive and the rea- son why her life held memories rather than a future. Perhaps it was because she had pictured him on a tennis court that she felt he would understand. So, as they paced the deck, Joyce told Durwood Hall of the early morning rides on Sandy, of the golf every Saturday with Dad and hikes up the mountain with Sport, her collie. With flaming cheeks and sparkling eyes she pictured for him the tennis matches -192- at Sargent. And, last of all, with a touch of tragedy, she told of her illness and its effects which had taken the joy out of life for her. Blue-Joy! That ' s what you are, and Fm awfully glad to meet you, said Durwood, holding out his hand. I, myself, have viewed the cheering mob from a tennis court and football field. It is the kind of stuff that makes life worth living. But, Blue-Joy, your axiom is correct, but your conclusion is all wrong. Let me tell you where your theory is false. Take, for instance, a tennis game. The physical action, I admit, is glorious, and the harder we have to play the more fun we are having. But is it not that it requires more mental skill to play a hard game? What would a tennis game, or football, or baseball, or any sport, be without the action of our brains? And when we have made an unusually brilliant play, doesn ' t it give us a thrill? Why? Because we had to run hard for the ball? No. Because we had the brains to see a good play. jMy theory is this, that one derives as much pleasure from the mental action required in any game as he does from the physical action. Durwood looked down into Joyce ' s astonished eyes. And tomor- row, Blue-Joy, I ' m going to prove to you that my theory is correct. The next morning Durwood found Joyce waiting in her steamer chair. The weary look had left her face, and as she greeted him her eyes were sparkling with interest. I am waiting to be convinced, ' ' she exclaimed. I am very anxious to know whether your proof lies in argumentation or demon- stration. Demonstration, wholly and solely, and you are to be your own demonstrator. Whereupon Durwood produced a long black case, which he proceeded to open. In the midst of this operation he stopped and looked suddenly at Joyce. Do you love to play tennis? he asked. Do I love it! she exclaimed. Why, of course, I do. You love it enough to play with me, sitting there in your chair on a steamer en route from New York to England? Joyce was hopelessly puzzled, and did not attempt an answer. That is abso- lutely necessary, ' ' explained Durwood, as he continued to open the -193- IKr hntHojiRlJ black case, if you are to defeat me playing on my Radio Tennis Court. Joyce looked in amazement at the board which Durwood had placed before her. It was a tiny tennis court, with a net, and even tiny white chalked lines. On either end of the court stood a minia- ture figure with a tiny racket, and at its feet were two tiny white balls. This, said Durwood, is my Radio Tennis. If you will look closely, you will discover a network of fine wire about each tiny player. You and I shall have to put these headgears on and make our little players play for us. If you love the game enough, you will be able to concentrate on the game sufficiently for the plays which you formulate in your mind to be transmitted to the action of the figure on the board. Forget that you are sitting motionless in your chair, and put yourself in the place of your player. You serve first. Joyce was silent a moment. He won ' t move, she exclaimed. Of course he won ' t, said Durwood. ' You have got to move. Didn ' t I tell you to forget the existence of the little white figure, and to play the game yourself? Well, let me serve first. Now you be sure to return my ball. Joyce was amazed to see the little figure next to Durwood stoop and pick up a ball and send it flying across the net. However, she forgot her astonishment and the tiny men on the board as she raced across the court to return the ball. Love-fifth, she cried as Durwood ' s ball went crashing into the net. Joyce played breathlessly for two glorious sets. My, you are good! she exclaimed as Durwood sent a cut stroke across the net so swiftly that she lost the play as well as game and set. She removed her headgear and pleaded with flaming cheeks, Please tell me how you did it. Durwood removed his headgear, stretched out in his chair, and looked far across the water at a tiny speck on the horizon. You know, he began, there are three kinds of people in the world. First we have the kind who think and talk in terms of other -194- lU Twenlii-sbL people. For instance, you may have a neighbor who doesn ' t think that Mrs. Jones should let her husband go to the club at night, and she goes to Mrs. Smith and confides her opinion of Mrs. Jones to her. Then there are the kinds of people who think and talk in terms of things. Your friend who raves continually about beautiful clothes and jewelry falls into that class. And then we have the kind of peo- ple who think and talk about ideas. The people who belong to this class are the greatest as well as the happiest people in the world. Ideas originate in the mind, and since ideas make people happy, the natural deduction is that the action of the mind causes happiness. On this I based my theory of the Radio Tennis. I analyzed my own love for the sport, and when I subtracted the physical action, there was still the joy of playing the game with my mind. Several years ago there was a man in Germany who invented a way of recording the action of the brain of a sleeping person by placing a very technically regulated broadcaster about his head. My invention merely goes a step farther. Instead of merely recording the action of the mind, my Radio Tennis demonstrates the action created in the mind. Durwood turned his gaze from the water to Joyce. She was holding out to him his headgear, and her eyes were sparkling. I ' ll beat you another set, challenged Blue-Joy. β Ellen Fox. -195- Thp, hnltlBJ 196 IH Twenlij svA INTERIO R PAN A HERICW WASHINGTON ' S MONUMENT UF ' 3 HaHE.ARUNtTDM PAN AMERICAN FITTY MILES hORTH MOUNT VERNOh 197 The hnlfloliRlJ 198 rii bom Is he ivho comes like a gay cavalier IFith laughing eyes And graceful sighs My fancy?

One can be happy only when one has a crying need for many things that seem impossible to acquire. To give a person the things he most desires, in order to insure his happiness, is to defeat one ' s purpose at the beginning. We human animals are so constructed that the more possessions we have, the greater restlessness, the more envy and discontent comes to us. Natural man needs but a few things β a hut, some food, and suffi- cient clothing to protect him from the weather. We, immured in artificiality, striving to attain false standards, flatter ourselves into believing that happiness is a state impossible to attain, but, if the truth were known, happiness is such a simple state, such a funda- mental condition, that most of us have merely failed to recognize it. Moreover, to some, happiness can lie in being unhappy. Dr. James shifted his feet on the stone railing of the clubhouse porch. As he flicked the ashes from his cigar, he looked meditatingly upon the figure of a man preparing to tee ofif, out on the green. Do you really mean that any one can be happy in being un- happy? asked one of his audience, incredulously. Most certainly. Take that man, for example. He probably considers himself the most unfortunate of men because he cannot bring his game up to par, yet, when he succeeds in doing so, his inter- est in the game will wane, and his games will be farther and farther apart. If he could analyze himself, he would find that he is really quite happy β much more so than he suspects. We have become so adept in concealing our emotions, even from ourselves, that we have actually come to believe that the part we play is really true. It isn ' t. We ' re all humbugs, and most of us live and die without awakening to the fact. So deep is this protective shell around around each of us that we look with suspicion upon the few who have the misfortune to see things as they are, not as we wish them to be. -200 IH TvyeDRj SI β’ Can you give us an example of any one being happy when un- happy, Doctor? You must admit that it is a rather unusual state of mind, or emotion. I can give you the complete story of a woman whose entire life was an unconscious revel in unhappiness, and who succeeded in ruin- ing the life of the one person whom she loved by surfeiting him with everything he desired. She was quite like the old hermits. Do you believe for one moment that they did not enjoy all those hardships? A hair shirt gave them as much pleasure β genuine pleasure β as a striped silk one gives a bricklayer. People are very seldom good be- cause they consciously reject the bad. They are usually good because they are too inert to be bad. It is much easier to be good than it is to be bad. Go on and tell us about this woman, Doctor! She and I lived in the same town, so, although she was much older than I, I can vouch for the entire story. Her name was Mary Maillard, and her family was much too large for both its house and its income. She was one of the older children. Her mother was a novel addict, who saw life through such a roseate glow that it never occurred to her that sunsets come at the end of the best regulated of days. While she lived among the clouds of romance, her children found life quite commonplace and grubby. After pneumonia carried her off to the land in which she expected to meet all the heroes of love and war, Mary spent the following week in cleaning the house for the first time since George, the youngest, had been born. The removal of five shelves of paper-backed novels to the ash can was the declaration of a new regime among the Maillards. Mary, the only one of the lot who was blessed with any great amount of common sense, took charge as a matter of course, and the others accepted her β also as a matter of course. George, the youngest, was the only one from whom she did not exact obedience and regularity. The others might have to appear at breakfast on time, or go to school hungry, but George would find his breakfast still warm in the oven when he chose to rise. The younger children might wear the others ' clothing in economical suc- cession, but George ' s clothes were always fairly new, and obviously his own. -201 - When other girls were going through the period of silent wor- ship of some teacher, some movie star, or some hero in literature, Mary was busy figuring how the family could be given dessert for dinner and George given a new suit of clothes at the same time. When other girls developed desperate crushes for some one a little older, or a trifle younger than they, Mary was buying George a baseball bat, and was being told by him that all the other fellows had Babe Ruth ' s, and that the new bat was too light for anybody except a baby. When other girls were having dates with eligible and uneligible young men, Mary was taking George to the movies every Friday night to see Tom Mix in The Hero of the Plains. Needless to say, Mary ' s sudden marriage to a successful jewelei in town was a most overwhelming shock to every one. No one had ever imagined her as married. Her complete absorption in George had set her apart in the eyes of the town people. Her satisfied martyrdom, her uncomplaining relinquishment of everything that young people love in life, made people often say, ' Poor Mary, I feel so sorry for her. ' Yet, she, deliberately wasting her life, enjoyed it, not only because of her infatuation for George, but simply because giving up her individualism satisfied her, and, in some aborted way, gratified her inward egotism. Mary was appreciated, not only by her pitying friends, but also by herself. Mary ' s marriage was not, in the popular sense, a success. Her husband was much older than she, very exacting, very irritable. She was reticent, while he liked spontaneity. She was flint-like in her unyielding obstinacy, while he liked gentle acquiescence. Their life together soon resolved itself into a mutual neutrality, the calm of which neither was interested enough to break. This marriage, seemingly calm and peaceful, really such a farce, satisfied Mary. She now had an undisputed social prestige, though she did not care to use it. Best of all, she was able to supply George with money β in small enough sums to keep him dependent upon her. The other young men called him lucky, but George, who took this help as a matter of course, grew more and more rest- less, more discontented, more reckless. Wild as he was, weak as he was, every one liked him. George was essentially lovable. -202- TjTwgntiusi t Mary ' s husband, who had objected to supporting her entire family, especially her ' no-count brother, ' who should have been sup- porting himself, put his foot down. The doctor had ordered that he must not be opposed or excited. Mary wrote him a letter, ad- dressed to the store, asking for several hundred dollars to pay George ' s latest debts, and threatening to sell her wedding pearls if she did not get the money. Her husband was found dead from a stroke of apoplexy in his office at the rear of the store. Mary, looking very dignified in her long, black veil, and her lovely pearls, immediately turned over her share of the estate to George, who had recently married. They built a beautiful home, and George set himself up in business. Unable to do anything for any length of time, failing in every undertaking, the money spent lavishly and without return, he soon lost it all. They moved into a smaller house. Mary grew thinner, but still remained serene and cold. They grew poorer and poorer. George was a failure. Dis- couraged in business, he tried to retrieve his funds by gambling. In a clubhouse one night, after he had lost all he had, some one openly coupled his name with a somewhat notorious woman in town. George drew back his chair quietly, and announced that he was going to kill the man. That night, the man, frightened by the seriousness of the threat, swore out a warrant. When they went to arrest George, they met him coming out of the woman ' s house with her. George drew his pistol, shot the man, then the woman, and turned the pistol on himself. The tragedy and disgrace of this seemed to leave Mary un- touched. She was outwardly as cool, as unapproachable as before. Inwardly, her emotions were exhausted. George, her one outlet, her only mode of self-expression, had failed her β had repudiated all her generosity by taking his own life. Her pride was unbroken, but she had nothing on which to sustain it. She was simply a re- pressed woman, who had lost everything, gained nothing, deserved nothing, but who could not acknowledge the fact. But what happened to her? Oh! she tried to get work in a department store, but they could not put up with her silent contempt. She wandered around town, 203 The hnlUfijiRlfC doing nothing, saying nothing, neither asking nor expecting any pity. Toward the last, her actions became so queer that people avoided her. Finally she created a scene on Main Street by attempting to cut down, with scissors, the awning of the store formerly owned by her husband, claiming it belonged to her. After that, the doctors pronounced her mentally unbalanced, and unsafe for the community. She is in one of the State asylums β a monomaniac. And yet, although she was directly responsible for the death of her husband, the mur- der of two defenseless people, and the suicide of her brother, she was what the world would call ' a good woman ' ! β Virginia Musselman. -204- .cksou ' 205- -206 207 - OS- β 209 210 211 ' .t Chatham 212- TllR hnltlnji IrT OME tiny thorns of memo7-y I iveave, despite the pain; I let them prick my finger-tips To bring love back again.

His father was only a laborer in a flour mill not far from their tiny home, and it was because of the lack of money that little Ernest had not been given JiKhR S proper medical attention. Because of Ernest ' s inability to keep up with the other boys and girls, he was left much of the time to himself. His one joy came when his mother ' s work was done. She would then read to him from the large book on the shelf about great men who had sacrificed much for home and country. Could he ever do this? It was food for his over-active mind, and a thought that was ever-present with him. It was springtime, and Ernest ' s father had taken him out on a Sunday afternoon into the nearby woods. Pretty flowers and little sprigs of grass were pushing their way through the dried leaves of the fall before. Never had Ernest enjoyed an afternoon with his father more than this one. Everything was in perfect harmony, and his soul seemed to soar forth and mingle with the breezes in the treetops. As the sun lowered its rays upon the two, they turned their steps homeward, but once again Ernest turned his curly head, that he might gaze upon the scene which would ever be beautiful to him. What could it be that he saw β something that had escaped his eye before? It was the softest green imaginable. He could not leave the spot; it seemed as though he were riveted there. He could not go home without knowing what this new green thing could be. With but little persuasion his ever-sympathetic father retraced his steps to the sturdy old oak. What is it, father? asked Ernest, with keen interest. My son, it looks like the old-fashioned climbing ivy. It grew on your grandfather ' s farm down in old Virginia, but it ' s the first I ' ve seen since I was a lad like you. -2M- IH Twenti β’f With skillful hands Ernest ' s father dug up one of the long sprays to satisfy his son ' s desire for it, and again they wound their way through the woodland path. Day after day, as the boys and girls passed in going to school, they would see Ernest tenderly caring for a little green plant that looked almost as sickly as the child. But with water and sunshine the little plant grew into a beautiful vine, and gradually spread itself over the shabby porch of Ernest ' s home. Beautiful beyond words it was to this little boy, and in it he could behold his hope in the future. The great God who had given life to this plant had also made him. With a faith ever strong and patient, he prayed to this Great One to give strength to his little frail body. As the green sprig from the wood had grown into a luxurious vine, so little Ernest gained in strength, a miracle as it seemed to his proud parents, and was able to attend school. After many hardships and sacrifices, Ernest finally reached col- lege, to leave four years later with all of the honors a college could bestow. On Sunday mornings, if you will go to a little village in North- ern Maryland, you will find an old man with silver hair delivering the morning ' s text. Ask him what you may, but his reply will be, My success came from the still voice I heard in a sprig of climb- ing ivy. β Grace Gianxotti. mmmmmm 215 - JhaJiflnifijielcC O many things have lent themselves To make lis ivhat zee are β A silver sunset glazed with red, J glozving planet overhead, J mountain β or an earthen jar.

Out of the Dormitory come two happy girls in purple slickers. Time was when a raincoat was a dank, rheumatic thing, smelling of wet dye, and suggestive of soaked feet and cold in the head. It seemed to droop wearily under the downpour of rain. Hidden in mouldy closets under the stairs, it became a necessity in time of storm, and an embarrassment when the sun shone again. One never wanted to buy a raincoat. The brilliant slicker is macie of crisp oilskin. Its hue is richest when wet and does not yield dispiritedly and brokenly to the onslaught of the rain. This slicker is absolutely stormproof, even though it is very light of weight. Even as that purple splendor moves away, down the double avenue of trees toward the heart of the cty, a scarlet one, jauntily alive, appears as bright as any tulip on the sidewalk. Its stand-up collar is lined with soft corduroy and buckles closely about the throat. How different from the cold, clammy collar of the old raincoat ! Next a green, all softly bright, walks with a vellow, the beautiful yellow of wet leaves. Crimson, and blue, and henna β how new an idea and how fine to carry the pretty and bright into dullness and deluge. I lean out to watch until the tiny drops from the eaves run down my neck and I am reminded that I need a slicker. β Catherine Perry. 217 i A;: 1i, knfflΒ |iJ,l I Miss Green ' s Trip to Washington To those who have been complain- ing of the monotony of week-ends, this article is respectfully dedicated If at any time your soul is possessed with a desire for a- new β experience, a new thrill β if you wish to enjoy the unusual, if you long for that grateful feeling of being glad of life, go to Washington with Miss Green. If in the uncertain- ties of life you return safely, physically you may be the same, but mentally and emotionally you will be forever fmiiUMtk changed. To begin with, you will probably be installed on the back seat with a suitcase on either side, and you and the suitcases will be tossed up until you come in active contact with the top. In one sense, this is not unfor- tunate. Your dazed condition prevents you from realizing what you are going through. The car swings around the dumb policeman on two wheels, whirls down the hill, hits the little bridge with a crash, leaps up the hill, and you are on your way. From the very beginning you pass other cars. Cars rush by, and in place of the horn. Miss Green calls out to them, Get out of my way! I ' m on my way to Washington! Get out of my way! They get. A few, unable to stand the strain, take to the ditch when they see her coming. Up hill, down hill, across bridges, around curves, through ruts, through sand. Miss Green literally wings her way to Washington, keeping up an even fifty-five miles an hour. With each new mile you realize afresh the delights of the life you are leaving behind you. You watch each object along the road, because if you must die, you want the satisfaction of know- ing what killed you. You view a load of hay with longing. It would make such a gorgeous place to land. Once in a while you lose your self-control, and call out, Miss Green, are your brakes working? She lets go of the steering wheel, turns around, and calls back cheerfully, No, dear, the foot brake isn ' t work- ing, but the emergency brake is all right. Each time she hits a bump you hit the top. The best thing about that is that she misses quite a few bumps because she only hits the high places. In Alexandria she absent-mindedly starts to run over a Mt. Vernon bus, weighing several tons, but Miss Bartlett grabs the emergency brake and prevents it. In Washington she generously gives her carburetor so -218- much gas that she stops at every corner, hokling up traffic in a most un- usual way. Several hours later you crawl half-heartedly into the Essex and start back. The road is full of deep ice ruts and snow. Miss Green races through them at a speed that scares you to think. The car swings around curves so fast that you feel like reaching out and pushing them back. You keep your eyes glued in horror on the road, but Miss Green turns her head from side to side, and cries ecstatically, Isn ' t the scenery beau- tiful, dear? You rush over ruts that look like gorges. At last, as you try to console yourself with the thought that the car cannot go any faster. Miss Green hits the macadam and calls out, Good! Now we can speed! At last, after what seems years of suspense, the car whirls up to Virginia Hall. You fall out, too dazed to speak, but you hear Miss Green say, I ' m so sorry I took so long getting you here, dear. I don ' t know what ' s wrong with my car, but it doesn ' t seem to want to go. She has made the trip from the Triangle to Virginia Hall over bad winter roads, having two blowouts, in an hour and a half, and apologizes for her slowness ! You can only gasp. 219 ThR hnTn jiJrT Fifty Miles South -220- IH TwenR HAT was that? said Mary, as the light flickered and then went out. What was it? came from Bob, the elder brother. What was it, did you say? Well, 1 should imagine it was the expiration of the well-spent life of an electric light bulb. Just what did you think it was, the ' hants ' that Mammy Lou was telling you had infested this place ever smce the wah? ' If you are going to be a slave to your nerves, you should never listen to such But before he could finish in rushed Mary, pale as any one of the ghosts in Mammy Lou ' s collection. Bob, there ' s somebody in this house! Quite a correct statement of facts. Sis. I always hoped Dad wasn ' t wasting breath when he insisted that you get the facts and then proceed, only you might have said two somebodies ; otherwise you are excluding yourself or me, and I don ' t propose to be excluded. Bob, don ' t be so exasperating, I tell you there is somebody in this house who doesn ' t belong here. Poor Dad, if he could only know the result of his labor. Twice in one evening you have ' gotten the facts. ' Only today 1 had a letter from Mr. Stacy notifying me that the will had been found, and this place wasn ' t ours at all, so it seems that we are where we don ' t belong; but I don ' t see how you knew it, unless you have been depart- ing from the one and only rigid rule of this household by reading my personal mail. Oh, Bob, won ' t you believe me when I tell you there is something or somebody in the house. That light didn ' t just go out. It was put out! I could feel Tap, tap, tap β tap, tap, tap. Listen, Bob, what is that? I knew there was something in here, I knew it, I knew it. Bob, don ' t you hear it, please Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap. Bob, if you don ' t see what it is, I shall call the police β I β You couldn ' t do that, my dear, since there are none, but if you will promise to β Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap. I won ' t promise anything β Bob, please see who it is; it ' s somebody. Would you prefer that I return with the Somebody dead or live? And Bob, with the poker in one hand and his cane in the other, went forth. Breathlessly, Mary waited while Bob tiptoed up the stairs and toward the spot where the tap, tap, tap was coming, and then β a loud peal of laughter rang in poor Mary ' s ears. Peacefully sitting in one of the upper rooms was Spot, the pet of the household and the most beloved of dogs, wagging his tail while he waited for the cat on the window sill to make the first move β the innocent old dog never realizing that the tap, tap, tap of his tail against the floor would cause so much alarm. Bob ushered him down the stairs to Mary, and the two somebodies and the one something marched bravely into the darkened room to examine the light that had flickered and then gone out. Much to Bob ' s dehght, Mary ' s disgust and Spot ' s bewilderment, they discovered that the bulb had died the most natural of deaths. β KiTTiE Hatch ETT. 221 the. hnlllfi[ielfC 222- I Twentij si-J Hin hninnji ifT reement of I This agreement, made and entered into the twenty-first day of March, in the year of our Lord, One Thousand Nine Hundred Twenty-Six, by and between Miss Marion Bartlett, of Orleans, Vt., and Miss Donohue, of Rochester, N.

Essay on Boys Boys are men that have not got as big as their papas; and girls are women that will be ladies by and by. Man was made before woman. When God looked at Adam, he said to himself: Well, I think I can do better if I try again, and he made Eve. God liked Eve so much better than Adam that there have been more women than men. Boys are a trouble. They wear out everything but soap. If I had my way, half the world would be girls and the rest dolls. My papa is so nice that I think he must have been a little girl when he was a little boy. Man was made, and on the se enth day he rested. Woman was then made, and she has never rested since. -226- She took me on the hockey field, She did not pause for air, She ran me round for one whole hour I wished I was not there. She made me chase a little ball, Though why I could not see ; She ran me till my tongue hung out, She would not pity me. The sun, that bright, September day, Was shining down so hot. That it raised blisters on my neck. And made me curse my lot. I covered every inch of ground On that derned hockey field; She would not call for us to stop β I swore I would not yield. And when that blessed bell did ring And I dragged to my bed. It took eight hours to cool me off, And then I felt like dead. And tho ' I have forgiven her. Forgotten that bad deal, I often wonder why we chased That ball around the field. The hnfllRJiolJ The big trouble with the weather nowadays is the way it ' s advertised. Uncle Sam ' s meteorological sharks still are dishing up daily 1887 forecasts for 1926 sport model storms. There ' s nothing thrilling about reading: Probably snow tonight and Tuesday with north to northwest winds. No change in temperature. But think how much interest the Weather Bureau could stir up if it would hire a couple of ninety-horse-power balloon-tired copy-writers to hand out the weather something like this : B-r-r-r-r-r-r ! Cold, Buddy? Afraid you ' re getting old? Cheer up, old man; this cold spell is still running along in second. Cold, Kitty, but tonight ' s going to be so frigid the radio programs will freeze in the air! And the snow ' ll be thicker than job-seekers when Congress convenes again. Monopolize blankets, shine up the coal shovel and step on the gas. And anchor the old northwest windows, for she ' s going to blow blue blazes. Tomorrow? Some more of the same. Sometimes the weather man has to shoot blindly with one of those Cloudy, probably occasional showers and variable winds foreguesses. Why not turn ' em out like menus and let the poor public take its choice? Then the cuckoo who picks out the wrong thing can ' t blame it on Uncle Sam ' s climate dispensers. Like this : TONIGHT (Choice of one) F.-MR CLOUDY STORMY RAIN NORTH WIND (Choice of tiro) MILD MODER.ATE (Choice of one or combination of any tiuo) SOUTH WIND EAST WIND (Floods and Hurricanes luith any Storm Order) -228- WEST WIND ? ? ?

Point of Interest: The Student Government Bulletin Board. Time: 1880. 1. In view of the fact that Miss Dorothy Holton and Miss Jesse Squire went buggy riding on the planlc road with two town boys, the Council sees fit to suspend them for the remainder of the session. 2. In view of the fact that Rosa Lee Kilman and Dorothy Bradshaw ex- posed their ankles in The Rising Sun Tavern, while having tea, the Council sees fit to campus them indefinitely and put them on proba- tion. 3. In view of the fact that a mouse proceeded to annoy Jane Whitehead to extent that she fainted and that Gladys Gillet laughed and was rather boisterous and showed little sympathy for Miss Whitehead ' s calamitous position, the Council severely reprimands the behavior of Miss Gillet. 4. In view of the fact that Miss Alice Stone has been reading a book called Eugenics, the Council takes the stand that Miss Stone be room campused for eight weeks. 5. In view of the fact that Miss Ella Talley has been advancing a radi- cal and detrimental plan for woman ' s suffrage, the Council considers that Miss Talley ' s influence is so detrimental to ideals of ladies that it has seen fit to ask her to withdraw from the school. 6. In view of the fact thatMiss IVIildred Crawford carelessly turned over an oil lamp in the library, and that the lamp exploded and jeopardized the group of students who were studying, the Council denies her the privilege of working in the library. 7. In view of the fact that Miss K. Micks kept her lights on until 8 o ' clock, the Council has strict room campused her. 8. In view of the fact that some of the Normal School girls were boister- ous on the carriage from Fredericksburg to Spotsylvania, the Council takes away their privilege of going home at Easter time. 230- The wheels of time are whirling fast, Bringing new words as they go past.

After the motor accident the unfortunate victim was carried into a house nearby. A few minutes later a smartly dressed young man ran up the steps and rang the bell. Excuse me, he said to the maid who opened the door. Can I see the gentleman who was brought in here a few minutes ago? I ' m afraid not, replied the girl; he hasn ' t come to his senses yet. Good, said the man; that ' ll suit me fine. I want to sell him an- other car. How ' s that new secretary of yours making out? inquired the senior partner.

There had been a little quarrel and she turned to him with tears in her eyes. Well, John, even though I have been extravagant, I got a bargain today. Yes, I ' ll bet it was a bargain. You have no idea of the value of money. I suppose you got something for nothing. Well, I got a birthday present for you. Getting to his feet, the dice roller said, disconsolately, Well, I ' s clean. One of his neighbors turned and inquired, You is which? I says, came the downhearted reply, I ' m broke. CLEAN. Clean? was the retort. Why, big boy, you wasn ' t very dirty when you come into this game, wus you? It must be three years since I saw you last. I hardly knew you β you have aged so. Really?
