You ' ll never find, If you ' ll be kind, We ' re any way neglectful. But should we cut a class or two, It ' s not because we ' re hateful. It ' s just because — oh yes, you know — We are somewhat forgetful. Then it ' s play, play, play, my dears. Our scales for half a day, in tears. On Thursday afternoons our Recitals you will hear. And it our fingers should stick, my dears. On Beethoven, Chopin, or Grieg, my dears, It ' s because we tremble When you assemble. Near the Hall of Joy. Make no mistake, We ' re never late When waiting for a call Miss Paschal ' s there Quite debonaire, To greet you in the hall. But when you stop too long, my friend, And forget about the clock, You ' ll find her gentle Oh! but firm To show you to the door. Then it ' s test, test, test, my dear, I think it ' s quite a pest, my dear. On Tuesday afternoon You ' ll see me in a swoon. When I see my mark, my dear, You ' ll find me in the dark, my dear In the farthest, smallest, darkest spot, III the Ihill of Fame. But after all is said and done And our complaints are duly spoken. We wouldn ' t give one stone Of Meredith as a token. We love it all And prize it. yes. Beyond a kingly ransom. The dear old school And all its rules We ' ll love and call it handsome. For the bells, bells, bells, my dears, That wake us every morn, my dears, For us no more will play, When we go on our way. The Class of 1915, dears, Now greets you twixt our .sighs and tears. We ' d sooner stay And see you play In the Hall of Joy. 40 (E laM S f S ' iy f.7 ? p 4 t r =4 -s — — = JJipL_ i J — -T ' J : -U -4 _ 1 ' ' 1 Tfi J4!

But not all work ; because we ' re wise, We mix with it much play, We ' ve frolicked in many a gay night off, And many a holiday. Through work and play, through thick and thin, Through stormy and fair weather, We ' ve shared each other ' s joys and woes, We ' ve always stuck together. We ' ve worked our hardest, done our best The far off goal to gain. We ' re sure we can, for we always were And always will remain The finest class in all the land, The brightest ever seen, The record breaking class — the class Of nineteen-seventeen.

To spur us on to reach a liigher plane, A plane which seeks to draw us near the skies, Just by its vision to our straining eyes, So like a glimijse of sunshine through the rain.

The gu ' ls are seeing more clearly than they once did the meaning of the standard set by the Association, and then ' general attitude shows that they are taking its meaning seriously. They have seen its value and now realize that it is the most vital organization in school. Jl lljl m mmxs Y. W. C. A.

Youn Women ' s ChriHtian Association 1914-1915 The Young Wonion ' s Christian Association was organized in 1901, and sineo that time its rajiid devel- opment has shown that it fills a need in the life of every college girl. Each year, new opportunities for serv- ice present themselves, and as they a] pear, new connnittees are formed to take advantage of them and to prepare girls for service in the various fields. During this year the.Associationh ' .is realized the grow- ing value of the Blue Uidge Conference, and a Blue Ridge committee was formed to arouse interest in the Conf( rence and to induce girls to take advantage of the hcnefits it offers; the work of this committee has I)een unusually successful. The mission pageant presented seemed to jDrepare the way for the mission and Bible study classes, organ- ized in the spring, and unusual interest has been man- ifested in these. The atmosphere of the whole Association and the opportunities afforded by the various committees for personal work among the girls has made more im- pressive the realization that ' Tis nobleness to serve •K ' r Philaretian Officers ' ' J ' i ' v v IV Mildred McIntyre, President Ada Briggs, Vice-Presidont Edna Bradsher, Secretary Martha Lineberry, Treasurer â– - y . ,-. « v.

TRON THC RHEiMS CATHEDffAL Eavesdropping in the Studio While Vann Eddins, the faithful and capable art editor, was working away on Annual mat- ter in the west alcove of the studio, she heard a low murmur of voices. Listening she found that the Venus and A])ollo were in close conversation. When the new kiln was installed, Venus was placed nearer Apollo, and evidently they had grown quite confidential. Is that so? said Venus. Yes, rejilied Apollo. I ' ve been watching Lucile Bullock, and if she is ' new ' and does things in a rush, I have high hopes of her. Her eagerness to get into the life class shows she ' s ambitious, — but that nose she gave the child! Proportion, proportion! — Will they never learn the value of it, — the absolute need of it, if they ever hope to make anything beautiful? Well, — what do you think of Hallie Simpkins, Apollo? Splendid enthusiasm hers, but she wants to sing Grand Opera before she ' s learned the notes! Still if the witchery of Diana ' s moon doesn ' t fall on her for several years yet, I think we may see some good work. And Edna Bradsher? I smiled at something I heard her say, the other day, — a word the gods should not have heard. Another poster for Y. W. C. A. was to be handed over in two hours! Enough to pro- voke the saintly little soul, but Carrie Sue was there to help, for anything was of more interest to her than that onion study Miss Poteat thinks so beautiful; and by the way, what were you and Cupid laughing about yesterday? He was telling me of the fun he had at Lillian Baucom ' s Valentine jjarty.

Would you present it to me on Thursday? said Venus. Mrs. Litchford is in the studio on Thursdays — and could there be a tinge of jealousy in the question? Vann leaned forward, listening eagerly, for the voices had dropped to a lower mur- mur, — but alas the dinner bell sounded! — and sorely disappointed that she failed to hear his answer and hadn ' t discovered what they thought of herself and the other workers in the studio, she flew downstairs, — but fully determined lo be ciuiet on other days, and hope for other inter- esting bits. 71 Sorosis w In order to train girls in organized research work and parliamentarj ' study, the need of which was felt in the two literary societies, Sorosis was organized in February, 1900. The mem- bership is limited to thirty girls who are eligible to college classes. Since its organization, Soro- sis has endeavored to raise the standard of the work done in the societies to a higher literary plane. The weekly meetings are made interesting as well as instructive by the study of topics of vit.al current interest.

To the Serenaders No more to Heaven ' s gates will I draw near Than when upon this night so clear Mid the filmy shadows of the moon slit rays There stood under the winter sky — these angels dear. No sound — not even a whisper of the wind Swayed branch or twig. But in the silence of dawn — and voices Tuned with the lyres of heaven Find hearts beating with Christmas cheer This celestial choir gave forth its melody — Who can with tongue or pen Spell out a phrase that will tell To what depths it did arouse? Will you? God bless you children of the silent night. God bless and keep you all, To sing again this song divine To those whose hearts are sore and prest With griefs and sorrows unexpressed. Si ng again, you angels of the night, And rouse from drow.sy depths again The minds all worn with daily strife. The echo of your hymns is ringing still Within the hearts and souls of men. Sing, again, sweet maidens, your carols dear, And again and again and once again. For in those songs you have shown us all The way to God and to his throne : For each sweet note that stole upon the air Carried us up one more step of the stair That leads to heaven ' s heights — For in life no nearer to heaven will we be Than listening again to thee . A. M The Height of the Ridiculous I declare, girls, this is a sad state of affairs, and no joking about it either. Here we are, fifteen whole mcmliers of the Senior Class without our better halves or any prospect of getting tlieni citlier. Oh, I mean that is for the most of us! Of course, Blanche — you sweet little Ijluc-cycd ilarling, of course we all know that ynu are not in need of a better half. The way you go about flashing that diamond in our faces — it ' s enough, it ' s enough to infuriate — anybody icithout a husband! And I just tell you — Now see here Betsy — you needn ' t be talking quite so positively. I used to get letters from Gerald every clay that rolled around, not to mention special deliveries on Sundays, and now just what do you think ' ? I get on the average two puny little letters a week, no specials on Sunday ' s, and the last ten letters have been simply full of ' such a handsome, charming young widow ' ! . ' Beauti- ful, ' ' charming ' handsome, ' indeed! I ' d just like to wring her — hand of course. Well, Blanche dear, and Kuth sighed. The ' course of true love never runneth smoothly, ' and ' men may come and men may go, ' but I ' m rather inclined ti) think that Gerald will hang on forever. Don ' t you worry about the way he is doing at jircscnt. When a man becomes so sure of his girl he usually gets kind of indifferent, but that ' s nothing to worry about. All Gerald needs is a dose of his own medicine. Ydu just write him a forty page letter about an imaginary man you met last week — ' oh, so handsome, so charming ' — and see what hap- pens. Do it, do it! laughed out Nancy. Special deliveries will roll in every Sunday, letters twice a day, and no more wall you hear of the ' charming young widow. ' And as sure as my name is Nancy, you ' ll get a five-pound Ijox of Nun- nally ' s the very next day and a dozen ' American Beauties ' to wear to church on Sunday. Um! Hurry up and do it — I ' m dying for some Nunnally ' s. Idiot! ' . ' and Blanche frowned. Do you think I ' d treat Gerald that way after he has been so perfectly ' lovelj ' to ' ? m j ' 7%f - ' m If ' The widow! interrupted Susan. But here Blanche, my Lady-Love come get cooled oft ' hy stirring this candy for me awhile. I ' m about to melt. Whew! Open that wimlow there, Nancy. Thanlv you Susan, and Blanche tossed her head disdainfully, l)ut I ' m in no notion whatever to stir that old candy for you. Besides, the subject under discussion is not agreeable to me in the least. Tlie idea of throwing off that way on my Gerakl! — Toss me that paper Jessie, I want to look over the ads. and see if Carson has received that new lot of evening dresses he ' s been expecting for the last month. Seems to me you ' d be more interested in looking at the furniture ads. and household fixings, said Jessie. I saw in Tuesday ' s paper about a dealer who guarantees to furnish a four-room flat just beautifully — all in rosewood or ma- hogany, and a Baby Grantl thrown in for good measure — all for the remarkaljly high price of $25. I ' m sure your Gerald could afford You surely can tell ' em, Jessie, said Blanche. I ' d just as soon to believe you could fry snow-balls in the kitchen stove. To change the subject, began Betsy, let ' s go back to our former discus- sion. It ' s perfectly awful, the fix we ' re in. Why, I think it ' s a positive dis- grace to the college, for four long years to struggle with and pray over and nourish fifteen girls into the lofty ideals of American womanhood, only to send them forth into the inhospitable world fully equipped for the battle of life — and solitaty maidenhood. Uh! I can ' t endure the thought of being an old maid. ' Votes for women, votes for women ' will be my aim I guess! Suffragist or suft ' ragette — I prefer the latter vocation, you bet! And so saying, Betsy jumped up into the middle of the bed, wildly waving a bolster; the whole crowd except Blanche join- ing in the hilarious chorus — votes for women, votes for women! Suffragists or suffragettes, we ' ll be the latter, you bet! Stop! stop! screamed Blanche, her voice rising above the huljliub. Glo- rious news for every one of you! Stop, listen! and she began to read: Bureau of Matrimony, Washington, D. C. Lonely Ones! ! ! Attention! ! ! Let us help you find yoiu ' life ' s partner. He (or she) is waiting for you and longing for you. The trouble is — where? Many have lived and died — lonely, mateless, but our great buj ' eau, with all its modern inventions, ferrets out mates for every one. Soon, with our help, this glorious country of ours wiU be in a state of prosperity the like of which has never been seen. Old maids will die married; bachelors will take wives unto themselves, and who can say? Per- haps another Swift will rise up and put in verse A Modest Proposal. But why dwell longer on these glorious opportunities? Delay not! A mate can be yours for the asking. For information write today. We guarantee satisfaction. Yoiu-s, etc. — • ' ' % Glory, allclujah! We ' ll all die married! screamed the sirls in chorus. Let ' s write today, now! fairly shrieked Betsy. We can all he in love l)y commencement, and have diamonds, flowers, candy, get special deliveries, and can invite all fifteen of our suitors to see us graduate. Let ' s make a motion! At that Nancy jumped up and solemnly began: I make a motion that we, the Senior Class of our beloved College, appeal to the great matrimonial bureau at Washington, D. C, for a husband each — Blanche being excepted. To save the honor of our college, for our own dignity and reputation, I do solemnly make this motion. Is there a second? I second, I second it, Second the motion, came from all parts of the room. Immediately the Senior Fudge Party was turned into a Strictly Business Assemblage. At the end of half an hour fourteen notes were written, sealed, and dispatched post-liastc to the marvelous Matrimonial Bureau, and the fudge- making was resumed. ' Twas very late, however, liefore this excit( d crowd liroke up, and ' tis safe to say tliat each one of the whole fifteen Seniors lay awake until the wee sma ' hours o ' the night — dreaming, wondering — of her better-half to-l)e. If you are acquainted with the ways of matrimonial bureaus, you must recall that they are among the most efficient of our modern American organizations, and lovt ' -lorn folk are not kept long in waiting. Exactly three nights after the fourteen notes had been mailed, Betsy and the rest of the class were gathered together in an excited, expectant group in the lower hall, listening to the mail-call. Miss Betsy Burnett! and some one handed her a long, official looking envelope. A suppressed giggle went up from the Seniors. Miss Jessie Coburn! — Miss Susan Lee! and so on, until every Senior except one held in her agitated hand one of those long, official looking envelopes , and the one exception held aloft a heavy package, which looked for all the world like a five-pound box of Nunnally ' s! It was the 12th of April when these letters came, and by the 2Uth each of the fourteen love-lorn Seniors had been put in touch with her fate, and had even progressed so far as to receive pictures of their better-halves-to-be. Need- less to say, every gentleman ' s picture was rapturously handsome. Several days later fourteen exquisite Senior photos started off on their va- rious journeys. %s« â– Tl afc i • ., ' â– ' Jv . - ' v • ' Nancy, said Betsy about a week after the photos had been sent, Do you know, I never dreamed that love coukl be so sweet! Why my Henry and I don ' t differ on a single subject. He ' s in favor of woman suffrage, Umdscape gar- deners, fireless cookers, bungalows, false curls and vaccination, and everything else I ' ve ever thought worth while. And darling — listen! He ' s going to send me my diamond two days before graduation, and oceans of roses and candy and everything, and I ' ll really be engaged, and Oh! — he ' s so good looking — how — Oh, Betsy! interrupted Nancy, My Jack is going to send me my dia- mond at the same time, and oh! I just can ' t realize I ' ll really be engaged, ami my Jack is coming on the noon train graduation day and — My Henry is too! Oh, how perfectly glorious to be really — But as it happened, these two cases were only typical of the fourteen. Every Jack, Henry and BoIj out of the whole fourteen suitors was miraculously sched- uled to send diamonds the 20th of May. Most coincidentally of all, each one was expected to arrive on the noon train the 22nd, to be present at the graduat- ing exercises, and for the first time to see their prospective brides. What a blessing that there are such great organizations as matrimonial bureaus! Otherwise this great college would have been shamed forever at the fourteen diamondless, hopeless, suitor-less young women it would have been com- pelled to send forth into the cold and gloomy world in this pitiable condition. As it was, however, the great day of graduation dawned bright and clear, and the expectant smiles on every Senior ' s face were dimmed only by the bril- liancy of the sparkling gems on each engagement finger. At last the noon hour arrived, and amidst all the stir of preparation attend- ing such an event as graduation — scheduled to begin at three o ' clock — fifteen white-clad Seniors ran races between the front windows and the big parlor mirrors. The far-off whistle of the noon train sounded. Excitement reigned supreme. Not only was this true of the Seniors, Init of almost every girl in the other classes, for by this time, practically the whole college knew that the fifteen Seniors were looking for their true-loves on the noon train. What it did not know, however, was that every suitor except one was the product of America ' s most famous matrimonial Ijureau. m r 4M - , Half ail hour had passed since the whistle had been heard. Nancy, chanc- ing to hold the point of atlvantage at the central window — where each Senior was anxiously awaiting — suddenly espied the station motor-bus rounding the corner and coming through the campus entrance. Girls — look! she screamed. Did you ever in your whole life? What in the world do you suppose all those freaks are coining uj) here for? They look like show men. Look at that scrawney, one-eyeil P ' renchnian! And see! — that laughing-Jacob of a bald-headed old man — the first one to get out. Let ' s count them. I never saw so many peaches in all my life. Two! Three! Four! Mercy! — what a bow-legged man! Five! Look at that fiery-headed monster. Six, seven, eight, nine. What an assortment of men I have never seen! Do you suppose they can be a show company? But what would they be coming here for? Ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen Heavens above! screamed IManche. The fifteenth is (Jerald — my Gerald! And in a flash she was out of the door and Hying down the steps to meet him. We had lietter clear out — the maid will have to ask those freaks in here until Dr. Parker can find out their business, said Nancy, and she started the crowd towards the door. But right there they were confronted by ] Iary, the maid, grinning from ear to ear. Yentulnums to see yer, ladies, she said, and held out the waiter, whereon were fourteen cards, bearing the names of every Jack, Bob and Toin among the long-awaited, long-desired, long-ant iciixited lietter-halves! Woe! Everlasting woe unto America ' s foremost Matrimonial Bureau! L. ( ' . H. ' 17.

Very truly, Donald Roystek. Meredith My Dear Mister Captain: Wednesday Your parting billet-doux was really very interesting — but don ' t you tliink it could have been done more cleverly? or less trite? Read Winchester ' s Litcrarij Criticisin and you will get some perfectly lovely ideas. I am sending by today ' s mail your sweater and pin. — I had no idea it was so heavy (the sweater I mean) until the postman told me how much the postage would be. I pinned your pin on the sweater so it would be sure not to lose — and then ' twas cheaper. It was awfully romantic fixing the things up! You can ' t imagine how the girls envied me! I was crazy to send back a whole package of letters, but the other day we were trying to see what kind of paper would burn the quickest, and before I knew it, every one of your letters was burned up. You could write me some more then I could re-t — but then you couldn ' t since you ' re mad. I ' ve been trying to think of some tragic way to close — oh, I know, I ' ve always wanted to say this — I will not root for W. F. again Till the .sun grows cold And ttif.

He read the note again, looked at the calendar to see if Easter Monday was really only two weeks oft ' , then to relieve his disgust, strolled over to the field to practice. On the way he meditated on the situation until he had fully determined to win the Easter game for vengeance or die trying. All ri lit, lioys, foOR ' on, let ' s get in sonic i ood i)racticc hd ' ori ' supper. And for the next two weeks we will diet, practic-e, and say our jirayers — That ' s good.

He ought to remember Ananias — unless my sofa pillow and ring ;u-c bridges that, you would like to burn behind you I would jolly well like to see them again. Cheerfully though sweetheartlessly, P. TSY K. Anson. Confound Hugh! The Ijlabliing idiot! Why can ' t he attend his own busi- ness? Plague take every girl in the universe. Here goes all the remaining fem- inine articles in my possession to Raleigh on the next train. With them my fond farewell to the fair sex. That particular Easter Monday was made for new spring clothes, picnics, and especially for ball games. The happy souls possessing the aforesaid new suit and bonnet, a season ticket or even a tlate with some aspiring swain to meet him at the gate had hearts filled and overflowing with anticipation. The unfortunate part of the universe who had neither ticket nor date had caught the spirit, and were joyfully hopeful since you never can tell what Fate might bring to pass. Even the dignified and meek chaperones could not wholly conceal their emotions. As the grand stand filled up all you could hear was inarticulate exclamations and There he is, look Ruth, don ' t you see the tall fellow with the cap? Anne, there is Kit ' s brother! Isn ' t he the best looking thing? Why won ' t he look this wav? 116 For goodness sake, Mililrcil, introduce us to that cousin of yours after the game. Tlie team? Not a one of them this year except the catcher, he was a pal of Tom ' s last year. Look at Don Royster. Of course he ' s trying to get Patsy Kate to look at him, and of course she knows it or she wouldn ' t keep on talking to that A M Major just like . . . Don ' t you believe it. Don isn ' t studying her. Didn ' t you know they had broken up forever? Lucile heard IMadge tell Betty all about it. Too bail. They used to be so crazy . . . Oh goody — the game has at last begun. The teams were more equally matched than they had been in years and the indications were that it was going to be a tie. Both teams played skillfully and hard, but at the end of the seventh inning the score stood one and one. Then it was that suddenly the Wake Forestians went mad. Even the sky-pilots tore down the chicken wire in front of the grand stand. And for a few blissful moments all cares hung suspended. The sun might have forgotten to stand still, l ut no one noticed it. For didn ' t Don as a result of steady practice, diet, and hard wishing knock a three-bagger that sent two men in home and landed him safely on third? And stole home in the midst of the excitement which made the already wild crowd insane. Of course Patsy Kate forgot that A M existed in spite of the fact that the poor, disappointed JNIajor was still trying to be polite. She wished that Don looidd look her way just once. So far he had not even glanced in her direction. In the confusion after the game all she could hear was Royster, Royster on all sides. Then she heard the crowd of girls directly behind her hail him with the effusive congratulations that only girls know how to give. This was all inter- rupted by an exclamation from Hugh, Say, old fellow, I recognize that the sweater you ' re wearing is awfully attractive, but since this is the hottest day we ' ve had this year, allow me to carry it for you. Quickly Patsy Kate turned toward Don, and as they shook hands he grinned sheepishly, saying distinctly, Thanks, but I will just keep it on awhile longer for it seems to me like an awfully cold day. — Don ' t you think so Patsy? Indeed I do, I am about to freeze, she lied truthfully. And Don, Prof. Haynes told me this morning that the stars were 99,999 years old. Alberta Brown, ' 16. Legend of the Wnio v 8lio was sittinj; by the river — Lonely Rachel, long ugo, Neath a tree that all aquiver Dropped its hranehos, hanging low. Far away her lovely city Strangers clutched with greedy hand That could feel no thrill of pitj- Could no nierey understand. ' An .l I was wondering if he With eyes so full of Heaven Might not the great Messiah be — Through me to Zion given. ' For so his father once had pra. ' ed Ere battle called him henee To fight and die. The baby stayed, My comfort and defense. Overhead upon the willow Hung her harp, and Rachel wept, Wept beside the foreign billow; Evening can-e — away she crept. But her harp forgotten hung there Till the evening breezes stirred; To the willow tree it sung there Rachor.s story, word for word. ' The enemy without the town Were crouching, beasts of prey; Lord Jehovah, strike tlieni down We pleaded day, by day. ' At midnight rushed the black mob in- 1 woke — my baby gone; I heard its cry amid the din And knew it. On and on ' O happy in the I ' ity there By God and prophets blest; My little babe so soft and fair Was pillowed (iM my breast. They swept us throu :li tlio city gate Like cattle, helpless, blind; I screamed — I rent my garments: Wait Till baby I can find. v But from the temple far away They marched, the weary throng, And some would sing or shout or pray- For me no prayer, no song That alien ears could hear, but low My cry to God I ' d raise For baby ' s dimpled hands of snow, I ' d harp his cradle-lays. Now yonder in the palace bright Beyond the river ' s brink, I ' tend the queen by day; by night I count the stars and think And wonder if by chance some hand That babies love was led To take my baby to his land — And was his baby dead? ' And will my brown-haired baby know Jehovah God? When grown To manhood will he yearning go To Zion? Seek his own? Or on yon cruel and chillj- night No blanket soft or sheet- Did bloody hand in that dim light Drop baby in the street? Lord of the stars, the earth, the sea. Be pitiful, I cry, O bring my baby back to me To kiss my lips— I die! Sang the harp thus till in sleeping It forgot the willow tree. But the willow stood there weeping — Still it weeps where men can see. Tho they never stop to listen To the meaning of its woe. Night by night its tear-drops glisten. Rachel has no baby-0. Two Hearts Beat as One If you have ever been in love perhaps you have felt the peculiar sensation of seeing yet once again the particular clearly beloved from whom you have been separated for months and months and months which seem as long years, and the last few months or days as the case may be, of expectation, which drag by as inter- minable centuries. And when you expected that certain person on one day and he arrived cjuite unexpectedly on another — did not your heart go pit-a-pat ' most to the bursting point? That is, especially if you were lounging back in the depths of a Morris chair with a dime novel in your lap, a summer-before-last ' s on your back, and the remains of the morning ' s cake-baking adorning your front, when you intended to have on a prisms and prunes smile — hovering just above the contentment of a spotless dress of fashion? Then when you expected to see him grown up into a dignified man anil wear- ing a high-topper — didn ' t he come bouncing in though, just as boyishlj as ever, and almost his first words were, Honey Bunch, (does yours call you that too?), let ' s go first thing to our rock and see if those hearts are still there! Our asso- ciation of ideas happened to be a particular rock on which we had carved a few centuries before two hearts — which beat as one. Of course yours may not be a romantic rock, but it happened that ours was, and that is what appeals to me most at this particular moment — our rock at the foot of which sweet little wild violets grow in the spring, and make a beautiful crown. Have you ever been crowned queen of the May — I wonder in the latter part of April? The rock was still there — as firm a foundation to be sat upon as ever, but the violets were lacking, as of course you would expect on a sweltering August tlay. To our intense joy we perceived the hearts still clearly defined in the rock, though a bit of starry moss had partly adorned them, and would you believe it? — they appeared to be more joined than ever! Funniest of all though, those carved words jumped right off the rock, and echoed in our very souls the accus- ing, downright truth — two hearts beat as one. L. H.

C, MAY 15, 1915 Price, Appreciation STATE-WIDE EVENT Sophomore Fair GiTen at the Roys- ter Fair Grounds, Complimeu- luentary to Their Sist«r State, Senior THE BIGGEST EVENT OF THE SEASON The Greatest Monstrosities of the Affair Being the Wonderful Hin- doo Magician, Along With the Seven Wonders of the World, and Culminating in the Greatest Bet- ter Babies Contest Ever Held. Upon the receipt of tickets com- plimentary to the Senior State only, representatives from every section of this state crowded the gates of the unsurpassable fair grounds. After greetings from the governor of the Sophomore State, A. Craig, the visitors were astounded by the loveliness of the sight of the Japan- ese tea garden with its ten lovely maidens which confronted them. But in direct contrast to their vision im- mediately came the most renowned palm reader in the known world. Immediately following was the Hindoo magician, who answered any question asked by the visitors, but soon lost his audience by their being attracted to the Seven Won- ders of the World. But these were merely matters of amusement and such a progressive state as Senior could not long be interested in mere play, but such an educational phase as a Better Babies Contest drew all toward it. Her e the latest methods were dis- cussed by a famous specialist with his competent nurse. In fact, the visitors, among whom were well known personages from other states, enjoyed both the amus- ing and educational phases so much that they have proclaimed the won- ders of the fair abroad. As a re- sult, the governor has been asked to repeat it. enlarging on its many points and thereby benefiting all humanity. DELIGHTFCL AT HOME One of the most interesting and enjoyable social functions of the year was an At Home given to those Newish attempting Soph. Math., by Miss M. Vann, in honor of Missed Trig., Feb. 19, 1915. The main features of the evening were the small talk and laughter, inter- spersed with occasional sighs. Dur- ing the course of the evening re- freshments were served, which were delightful as well as original and in keeping with the guest of honor, since they consisted of sines and cosines, served on a very at- tractive logarithm table. Among those enjoying Miss Vann ' s hospitality were Misses K. Jessup, A. Mercer, L. Haislip, and M. Cooper. SOPHOMORE NIGHT OFF It was study hour. The silence of the tomb reigned on the halls except for the soft, stealthy tread of a number of Sophs, making their silent way down the steps and col- lecting in whispering groups just outside Miss Paschal ' s office. Soon the hall was filled, and our presi- dent called for order and began the roll-call. Present! Here! — yes, Present! Present! Present! — not a single absent member! But who could possibly miss all the fun attending our Sophomore Night Off, and especially the walk down beloved Fayetteville and the long- wished-for privilege of going to the movies? No one but a Soph, can possibly imagine the supreme sense of elevation we possessed that night. The movies were simply grand, but best of all was the surprises we had coming on back to the college. Oh, glory! How grand it was! You wait till you get to be a Soph, and see how you feel when you meet every last one of the soldier boys from A. and M. right in front of the Capitol Square. Flirt? Well. I reckon! That ' s all you can do when a soldier laddie turns clear around in his tracks and gives you the broad wink and the Hello, Cu- tie! But sh-h-h-h! don ' t let Miss Paschal hear you say that ' s the way they did. Our feast was scheduled to begin as soon as we got back from the movies, and believe me! it began on time, too. The only delay was the change from coat suits to sheets, and then our ghostly terror-strik- ing march up the four flights of Faircloth Hall steps to the feast room. Some march that was, too! Every now and then on our way up a scared-faced Newish would poke her head out of the door to inquire why. it was she would not see her mama any more — but one look was enough! Ghosts, ghosts everywhere! . . . Get in your hole. Newish! But it didn ' t take much urging. Such a feast — fit for gods and Sophomores! And the soft glow from the jack-o ' -lanterns gave just the right touch, for Hallowe ' en time it was and the season for ghosts and spooks. That chicken surely lent us wings, too. Judging by the way we flew around after- wards, and some of the W. F. girls got busy and started up Oh, you bold-faced New-ish, right there with the whole crowd joining in — You had better lie low, if you ever want to be a Sophomore, Sopho- more — if you ever want to see your mama any more!

EDITORIAL At lunch hour one day muffled tones of meditation floated out to the sensitive ear of the music teacher. Scarce enduring the sound she neared the practice hall and voiced her disapproval. At the next lesson poor little Newish with tears of repentance promised teach- er never again to play anything but the inspiring finger practices. On English literature as the teacher eagerly discoursed of the welfare of her pupils, questioned them as to their outside reading, demanding an exact and truthful account of their literary browsing, the Eyes of the World turned startled and disapprovingly on one erring daughter. Be it known, we, the Sophomore class, do heartily approve of these righteous measures for training the Newish in the straight and nar- row path; but we, as a highly com- petent body, wish to push the good work on and add one more reform. swer defendingly, but how shall we, as reformers, accomplish these great ideals? Hear. First, let the teacher of music, art, literature, even cooking, arm herself with a great, warm, fluffy wooly shawl, the kind her mother used to make, and quietly step behind Miss Newish on recep- tion night and lay it around her shoulders with a motherly caress. Who doubts that her heart will melt till the fountains of the soul over- flow? But, some one asks, what shall we do to those who stubbornly hold out against the reformation? Leave that to the Sophomores. Sopho- more night those most heretical in their beliefs and practices shall be arraigned to give Sophomores spe- cial entertainment. We purpose to invite the heads of departments to this performance; we, therefore, omit details as liable to lessen the interest. Do not, O fellow comrades, linger in doubt as to this new reform. Arm yourselves for battle as fear- lessly as Luther, and some day the history teacher will say, Tomor- row, girls ' , we have, undoubtedly, one of the most important lessons in the book, ' The Reformation in Dress, 191.5- ' 20.

Soph.: They usually offer some suggestions but do not vote. Newish: Well, they did all the nominating and all the voting, too, when our officers were elected. Mary Pruette got up and said, ' How do you like Gertrude Kitchin for president? ' As soon as she finished speaking every Junior ' s hand went up — (as had been previously planned). Then, without waiting for any of the Freshmen to vote, Mary said, ' Well, Gertrude is elected unanimously. ' I think they were afraid you all would come in and break up the organization, so they elected all the other officers in the same way. SOPHOMORES DELIGHTFULLY ENTERTAINED BY SENIORS A few days before the Christmas holidays, the Sophomores were in- vited by the Seniors to the parlor in the Home Economics Building at 9 p. m., December 15, 1914. At the appointed hour the Sophomores, each dressed as a little girl or boy, and carrying a sofa pillow, could be seen stealing across the campus. We were met at the door by Fa- ther Adams and Mother Marsh- banks and ushered into the parlor, made attractive for the occasion. The whole room was lighted by the bright cheerful fires from the two grates. On looking around we saw that the room was tastefully deco- rated with holly, and above the fire- places hung rows of stockings filled with nuts. Everything was so cozy and cheerful, reminding us of the times when we used to hang up our own stockings at home — a long time ago! We threw our pillows on the floor and sat down upon them, wait- ing for the program to begin — nor did we have to wait long. Over in one corner was a real Christmas tree. Gathered near it were Father Biggers, Mother Higgs and all the children; besides the family, a visiting cousin was pres- ent. The children expressed their desire to see the real Santa Glaus. The cousin promised them they might see him. In a short time, when the children were all hid be- hind chairs and screens, waiting for Santa Claus, Father Biggers re- turned from another room where he had disappeared — transformed into a real Santa — and carried a big bag of gifts. The children caught him in the act, and he gave presents to all of them, and had enough left for the other little boys and girls in the room. There were several other attrac- tive features during the evening. Among them was a recitation by Senior Marshbanks. This was es- pecially enterta ining. Other amus- ing recitations were given by Sen- iors Howard and McKenzie and Sophomore Smith. All were de- lighted with the duet by Sophmores Dew and Royall. Delightful refreshments, consist- ing of oranges, apples, nuts, and marshmallows, were served. What a jolly time we did have while eat- ing fruit, cracking nuts, and toast- ing marshmallows! After some time spent in this way we discov- ered that it was nearing eleven. We then arose, and after thanking our charming hostesses for their gracious entertainment, proceeded to the cloak room. We all went away with a feeling that Christmas was really near, and thanking our Seniors, the finest Seniors ever. joke of all came when we were sending volumes of sneezing pow- der through that Newish Cook ' s transom. Help, Mack! Help!! she yelled. We could tell you a lot more jokes about that eventful night- jokes wusser ' n that, but, oh, well! you just wait until you get to be a Sophomore. (Continued from page 1.) THE SOPH. NIGHT OFF Long after light-bell, when every- thing was quiet, and each Newish was supposed to be peacefully slum- bering, we started out on our ram- page. The halls were as dark as Egypt, but could just distinguish the long, trailing white draperies of us Sophs., as we went from one locked door to another, making all kinds of stage-whispered threats for the benefit of those on the inside. But the best of all was when we got back to Main Building, where some of the loudest freshies were. You ought to have seen the fit that HoUoman Newish had when a head- less white ghost poked its head right through the window by her bed. Oh, Lord! she screamed, I ' m so nervous! You remember that loquacious little Lassiter freshie, don ' t you? The one that roomed with Mary Whitley, I mean. Some of the ghosts flung five pitch- ers of water at her through the transom, and the next morning she was found gracefully floating around In a pool of it on the bed, while her room-mate was dancing on top of the bureau, wildly ringing the alarm clock to try to wake her up. We fixed the Newish president all right, too, and that quiet little Lydia who rooms with her, but we ' d bet- ter not tell you about that now. Miss Paschal might hear. The best UNIVERSAL DISTURBANCE On the morning of January twen- ty-seventh, about 7:50, when Miss Paschal had tapped the breakfast bell for silence and Doctor Vann had just begun the blessing, every- body in Main Building dining room was suddenly startled by a mighty rustling which appeared to be pro- ceeding from third floor. The noise increased with such violence that when the blessing was over every one opened troubled eyes, and just as some few were rising from their seats to go find out what the matter was, there came a tremendous crash and everyone experienced a sudden jar. Before all had quite come to their senses. Doctor Vann, who had rushed out, came in slowly and an- nounced in subdued tones that Lydia Josey in her usual hurry down to breakfast had stumped her toe and fallen down. IN THE REALM OF SOPHOMORES Such awful noises come from dark- ened halls. Such crazy fear excited by these calls. Of white-robed Sophomores, red skull and cross-bones. Ordering kneeling Freshmen in mighty winsome tones. Penned in by Sophomores, scared half to death, Sits a greeny, all agape and takes away her breath. How noble, great, and withal how grand! Cry all the loyal lasses of the Fresh- man band. BASKET BALL Meredith Faculty Overcomes Trinity Faculty Durham, N.
