The League, the center of school activities, since under it work the various committees that directly affect us, such as Entertainment, Athletics, etc., is also rounding out its thirteenth year with a record so fine as to belie the proverbial unluckiness of the numlier. Student government has this year operated with exceptional force and the results have keen most reassuring. In fact. we. on the whole, have prospered. To the Seniors goes the credit. Ever since your entrance into high school, four years ago. you have marked yourselves as girls of originality and power of leadership. You have pul these happy faculties to a good use and have made of your Senior year a fitting and grand climax to your already successful careers. We Juniors have watched and admired your good work as the months have passed, and have valued your friendship greatly. If we, when we loo reach the exalted reign of the red tie, can carry on with half the good results you have achieved, we shall In- proud. To the Seniors, then, goes our deepest appreciation of all you have done this year and our heartiest good wishes for continued success in whatever line you may choose to follow after you leave Northrop. Indeed we feel that it is not inappropriate to finish our farewell with the familiar basketball cheer, sincere, if ungrammatical: r- “You done well You done well Let’s give one substantial yell Yeh! Seniors! The Juniors. Vaft four T bl Z 1 0 z Florence Isabel Roberts “Sissy” IIM the Ion! h r I am romin?. Florence, idol of ihc lower form and this year' League President, with her loyalty, honesty, and sincerity in performing the often diflirult duties of her office has made her administration a year of service to the school. With all her important trusts she has not changed a hit from tin- Florence we have always known, and in years to come we shall remember her as a genuinely good sport and all around good fellow”. Poor Genie! as Class President in this our Iasi, anil pmlnihly most difficult, year she has had a much more strenuous job than it is fair to inflict on any one. Hut we wish to emphasize that to Genie belongs all the credit for our remaining in school and for accomplishing all that we have individually or collectively done, for without her soft voice vainly pleading for a little less tumult in study periods it is doubtful if we should have done any work at all.

She skips afternoon sport with the best of us, though when she does play basket hall and hockey, she is an invaluable memlicr of the team. Besides filling her own report card with AV she has plenty of lime to help the rest of us, and we feel that it would be ex-tremely embarrassing to guess how many of the diplomas presented at Commencement really belong to Jean. I’agr Sil T ATI ,.2 The infant prodigy! For a child of her age our baby has read more Imok (not all. we fear, from the Northrop reading list l and consumed more general information than all the rest of u put together, of course, since she is a Taller Editor, you natuially guess that she has a witty longue ami is very clever at writing. Quite true! We feel sure that she will shine at college as she has done here. Maude Elizabeth Benjamin “Maudie Til Cod gives skill, lint not uithout men's hand ; He eouhi no make Antonio Stradivari's violins Without Antonio. Mamie, ihc class musician, codhs into prominence on all gala occasions. Some day when Maude is famous, we shall all be pleased to be able to say she was a friend of ours. But we do not have to wail until then to lx- plod that we know her. for we all appreciate her pay laugh and her athletic ability. We may even say that we like her stubborn ness and often find it very amusing when we ourselves are not affected by it. Li £_____________XL Rosena Kate Brace “Ro” Sh- gigglr.% uhrn hc's lirklrd.

Her frequent silly streaks are most diverting, and her imitations of eat and dog fights keep our whole class laughing for hours. One of those fortunate people with good teste in clothes and the ability to wear them as they should he worn, she always looks exceedingly well, even in her uniform. Page Srvrri Prisoii.i.a Jannf.y Brown “Percy ■1 0 2 ThU year. as captain of ihe While Team. Priscilla has liiul an extremely strenuous life, chasing around in vain effort- to persuade the leisure-loving Seniors to play basketball, to walk. and to engage in other industrious pastimes so abhor rent to them. We might remark that she i« an equestrienne of no mean ability. Her reliability, her power a- a manager, and above all her even temper, have won her a high place in school activities. Page Eight Ethel, contrary In convention, appears in school on Monday morning with a broad grin (lasting over from Sunday night, we suspect). It speak well for her tact that she has l� orii a conscientious student government officer for three years and is still one of the most popular girls in the class. In hockey and basketball, we believe, she is considered quite a menace to the opposing team. To Jan - miul go the prize for the lest disposition in the class. She is aluavs cheerful, even when, in her capacity as Student Government Representative, she has to shout to quell a study period riot. Another of Jane’s claims to fame is her modest school wardrobe, consisting of five fur coats with matching hats and overshoes. We are thrilled to see Jane in the pictures of the University balls. We like to have one of our number feel at home in the society and rotogravure sections. Di li‘� always been one of Nature's own l� i{j outdoor girl'.

Then, too. we have noticed that she is quite a shining light scholastically, especially in the realm of the (to most of u«� incomprehensible mathematics. Her friendliness, good temper, and sportsmanship have made her well liked in the whole school. 'are Nutt Elizabeth Whitney Dodge “Betiy” ' Hitmat un. hinc trtllrt on hrr W. Though like the rest of us she- sometimes act glum, the limes are so short that we scarcely notice them, for she hursts oul laughing. Belly never brags about her athletic ability, but she always appears on hockey and basketball teams. It is an old Mor . but still true, that Betty’s fate, especially her complexion, has been the ideal of her class-mates ever since she came into our class in the fourth grade. r c-.r Ten T I E A Joseph ink Louise Cokiiam “Lou “llraminft firth and blonde and nir, B ilh «Hire eyes and aureate hail. ‘ Lou is one of the class’s most famous social hutterilics, and no important function of the young-rr set is complete without her presence. If it were not for her splendidly industrious playing on the hockey team this year, � e might consider “Lou one of the laziest people in the class, for she would really rather sleep all night in school than walk home, and like most of the rest of us has a particular antipathy for required afternoon sports.

When her entertainments are allowed, they arc always good, for she is famous for her contagions giggle and her smile. Kuinor has it that she is very popular with the opposite sex. We do know that several times epistles from the Hast have made her Into to school. Betty Cray, though usually a very quiet, self-effacing soul, occasionally startle- u« with hursts of melody, for she is really an accomplished whistler. Many is the time when we have laughed at Some of her pun-, when nothing else in the world was the least hit a nusing. She i- a real ray «.f sunshine and has helped us along life’s weary way more than once. May she never he less happy than -he is now! Page FJceen i 0 2 6 Kvylin is one of those few fortunate members of our class who have c ars of their own, ami we are eagerly awaiting the day when she will bring hers to school, and we may all have our first ride. Seeley is rather socially inclined and manages to fill her week-end full of entertainments, religiously ending up at Young People s Society every Sunday evening. At school she is always gay. talkative, and full of life and well liked by us all. I'agf T� rh Aside from the fact that � 4� r is nrl editor of this truly noble publication. Dorothy's chief claim to fame lies in her numerous lliiick.-. Her car never pulls away from school without at least half of the Senior class decorating it. It i her generosity good-heartedness, and even temper that have made her so very well liked through the many years she has weathered the storms at . C.

For many years she has been starring at horse shows and now has quite a collection of cups and ribbons. In fact, there is no branch of athletics in which she docs not excel. Always a good winner or loser she has made herself very well liked everywhere. A T JL E k. i Because of her athletic prowess. “Dolly” is n grout favorite among (lie lower forms. She lias always been our prize athlete ami her uncanny ability to make baskets continually amazes us. uything athletic interests her. and we should not he at all surprised in years to come to find her “permanently” established in the gym office.

We have often thought seriously of jotting down her sayings during study periods, hut have decided that it would he an impractical idea as we should have to hire someone especially for the job. Without Kate to lighten our daily routine and to glorify our athletic teams, we feel that the class would be sadly incomplete. Pane I'aur teen L £ JUANITA WkINRKBK “Nila” (treat Itrlings dots slit own ITAiVA ttsstr souls can nrccr know. One of Nita’s chief virtues is her low anil gentle voice. What a shame that it is sometimes drowned by the shrill, siren-like tones of some people we know. We suspect, though ila has not told us. that down in the art room there are several masterpieces which will astound us in years to come. It says great things for her ability that we wished on her the thnnklcss job of trying to wring due out of the class. T J-J B 10 2.

Evylin explained that sire with her fam.u cosmetic prepared in the well known Seeley laboratories, lud made Louise a second Edna Wallace Hopper. Then they both lo'd me whom they had won in Pari . It worn that one day they were sight-seeing and were going to a cathedral. On the way up the step , a nun swathed in black twrpl by them. Ju t a she reached the door the turned around, and it wa none other than Genie. Sadly ami sympatheticjllv we recalled -mir-thing aboot her being left at the church door. “Poor girl. Lou murmured. “abo always did lake thing hard.'’ We passed on to more cheerful subject . They told me that the smart clothe they were wearing were designed by Mademoiselle Ro.rnle llracce, who it went i all the rage in Pari . They abo told me that they had een the Man|ui e ile Saint Pro Veuve, nee Jane Davenport. Hitting about Pari in her lli pann Suiza ami occupying a prominent ho at the opera. I asked them if. when they were in London, they had been to one of the American ambassador reception . They are famous, you know, because of the charming hcoirs , our n'd friend Nila. ‘Tt’ too lud we missed that.” said Evylin. “but we did go to call on Dorothy Stephen in her studio in the l-atin quarter, where he wa exhibiting «me odd blob of co’or which |ieople called masterpiece . While we were there, someone danced gracefully into the room in Bowing chilTon and gently juggling transparent balloon , and. my dear, it wa none other than Betty Pray.” Then I told them what I had heard about ome of the girl . Poor Jean, you know, after hr graduatesl from Northrop went right on with her philanthropic work and managed to get her whole cla� at U elle ley through college ami to procure them each j husband.

Hetty Coodell and Caroline Mercer will he remembered as editors of recent Tatters, hut it is of especial interest to know that lrs. Wolcott lias a member of the first Taller Hoard in 1914.

Dear Editors: This it a message of greeting ftom one of the first Tvrt.iui editors to its present editor . Were it not for an amusing photograph ol those first editors—all of u� wearing skirls tliat Hopped ab-tit our ankles—it would be hard to realize that it was as long ago as 1911 that the first Taiimi was roncrivrd. How delightful it is to observe that each year since then the Tatu.ii has grown in wit and wisdom as well as in years! Now on its fourteenth birthday I. for one, anticipate that I shall find it a charming friend, delightful to look upon, sjurkling with humor, a trifle sophisticated as becomes 1928. vet not overly so.—in short an arquain tanre to cherish. And o I send to my friend whose name is Taiiek and to all her friends ami creators my loyal good wislie . I voceni: Bi kcii Wom jtt. Vassar College. Poughkeepsie. N. Y. February 26. 1928. f)edt Editor : It is a very great pleasure to be contributing again to the Tati.I.R aflrr four years of silence. The chief purpose of ibis letter is to send the greetings of the clu of 1924 married or singlet to the cla� s ol 1928 (single). Although you may er us only annually when lice Christmas play comes around, we are always sincerely interested in what you are doing. If this is to lie not only a letter hut an editorial. it is I inn- to be summoning up the motherly manner before I have used up the space belonging to all the other editors luck to 1K92. Tlie most serious ■ubjecl that I can think of in remembering our school hours between the years 1920 and 1924 is inevitably the College Entrance Examinations. Perhaps you think about them occasionally. a« they tell me that young girls are still going to college. When they are behind you and not ahead, and perspective has taken the place of cold chills, you will proliahly see that your preparation for them lias given you a great deal in the way of the much-advertised mental discipline, ami of lackgtound. The more you like a subject the easier it is to grasp it. ami consequently tlie more it will mean afterwards. For this reason, you are fortunate to be in preparatory school now. instead of back in tlie gay ‘24's. for the co'legc are in general allowing much more clwicc of entrance subjects. Another pleasant tendency is the growing emphasis on Comprehensive Examinations. which encourage you to coordinate your material and think alrotil it. instead of learning a few irrelevant facts the night lsefore. and as quickly forgetting them. The whole point to this cherry little talk i« that tin- things you are doing now will mean something to you four years hence, whether you are studying, or making the borne beautiful for some Worthy Man. With love and best wishes to Mis Car� c, the Faculty, the class of 1928. and Northrop School, in general. Caroline Mercek. Vas� ar Odlegc, March 5. 1928. Pave Thirty-three Bear Fdilor : You ask in«' to write an editorial for your Tatum. That's quite u large order. parlirularly � inre I haven't token any English since fre-h-nun year here. I thought you might be interested in knowing how the new changes in the curriculum here appeal to one from the Inode, a it were. While it affect- u not at all. we -till hear a great deal of diacussion about it. Tlie whole purpose of the change i to widen the student's point of view and to encourage the student to think individually. At I lie end of freshman year, one must decide on one's major and minor, and plan one'- schedule accordingly. It i� sometimes haul to do lltal. even at the end of soplwitnore year, particularly if one ha� no special talent I which I hadn't! . Hut on tile whole I think the plan t- excellent because it does help to coordinate one's course and to mike them more or ies- of an entity. Tile worst thing in the world, to my mind.

The required caWMa an assembled with the idea of giving each girl a rather wide ranjir of interest in her frediman year. • that her choice won't lie quite � ■ lilind. Another interesting pha� e. and one which affect u too, i thr very marked tendency to cut out more ami more the trifling day-to-day alignment and lo place more and more emplu i upon individual and free tudy, with class a diacu ion and not a recitation group. In thi way every girl get a great deal more of value out of her course than •lie otherwi e could. I could go oil forever, but I won't liorr you. I will only say that I think the system i in every respect admirable and a great step in advance-. I'm only sorry that I came here too soon to he affected by it. Very sincerely yours, Hetty Goooui. ON BALSAM BOUGHS Have you ever lain on bal am bough With the spangled sky your tent; When the eye of night smiled on the pine . Whi’e they sighed their � � crt lament; And the water crooned to the baby moon As it rocked in the firmament? If you ever lay on balsam boughs In a land where few have trod. And your heart was swelled, tingling with love — With the love of earth, of sod. With I lie love of life, and the love of man; Then you’ve been in the House of God. A. IVitra. T bl £ i 0 2. d SEPTEMBER: Friday, the sixteenth, finds us all Back again within the stately turrets, almost unrecognizable under our summer tans, ready to put our nose to the grindstone for nine months of good, steady work. So eager are three of our most prominent Seniors that they appear almost at the crack of dawn to reserve the best table in the new Senior room. On the thirtieth we all make merry at our annual party to welcome the new girls. By far the hit of the evening is the Dumb Dora” sextet stunt of the Faculty, when they put aside their customary dignity for the moment and. donning costumes of the gay nineties, sang several ballads of that lively era, with Miss McHugh’s rendition of She Was Only a Bird in a Gilded Gage and Miss Sadley’s sudden precipitation over backwards bringing down the house. OCTOBER: On the fourteenth the school’s equestriennes shine in an exhibition at the Armory. The rest of the month is occupied by k the Gold and White and class hockey games on our new field. NOVEMBER: For the lirst week of this month the Community Fund drive engages our interest and brings with it Bishop Freeman, here from Washington to open the campaign, who kindly spare some of his busy moments lo talk to us. A former Minneapolitan, In- is an old and devoted friend of tin- school and can always lie assured of a hearty welcome from us for himself and his inspiring messages. On the tenth Mrs. Carpenter comes to tell us of some poor families who would appreciate our help, and the aide Welfare Committee promptly goes into action. On the eleventh we have a holiday ami are at a loss to know whether it should he attributed to Armistice Day or the V E. A. meetings in Minneapolis. In either ease we rejoice that the war is over and that the faculty are journeying in piesl of higher learning. On the twenty-third the lower forms present a very entertaining program in celebration of the approaching day of thanksgiving. The twenty-fourth is a holiday lo give us time to In-duly thankful ami to -.luff ourselves with turkey; with the following day and week-end to assure complete recovery. DECEMBER: The morning of the second is “open day with invitations for the parents lo come and watch their childrru at work. A very good exhibit of interesting and instructive books and clever maps is held in the library. At noon the Parents and Teachers have their annual luncheon, and although we are a little apprehensive of what the teachers may say to the parents, yet we resolutely put such dismal thoughts lieliind u and go off to enjoy the resulting half-holiday. The next few weeks are taken up with frenzied preparation for the Christmas plav. T J-J £ A T Li E I'aze Thirty-six Jhl £ i o z a T with a respite in the form of a very exciting snowstorm which keeps us snow-bound at home for two days right in the middle of the week too! But the hard working directors and east refuse to let this deter them and struggle on at an accelerated pace toward perfection in the field of dramatie art. At last, on the sixteenth, the big day arrives, and though we mourn the loss of our adored “Bethlehem. we agree that this play is u very good substitute and probably better suited to our talents. We all depart to lose all thought of lessons in the orgies of reveling until the New Year shall have come in and school beckon us back to our tasks. JANUARY: On the second day of the New Year we assemble again in our classrooms, a very bedraggled group, feeling the need of the peace and quirt for pursuing our studies after a very hectic two weeks. With the flag at half-mast and the classrooms draped in black we endure the agonies of Mid-Years from the twenty-fourth to the twenty-sixth and emerge light-headedly to find lha' some merciful providence has provider! us with a half-holiday in which we may recover and the teachers may ascertain the worst. I • A AV On lire night of the twenty-sixth the Parents and Teachers stage another revel, this time a dinner at which they are entertained t?l by the Seniors square-dancing in Kate Gr enn-way costumes, the Juniors minuctling in the approved hoop-skirts. rind the Sophomores clogging in over-nils. The thirtieth is marked by the coming of Mis -. Addams of the American Women's College in Turkey to tell us about the college and the girls from all nations who come great dirtanres to enjoy the advantages they can get there. The day having hern so newhut gladd lied by this most interesting talk, we go a little more hopcfullv to find out th results of our examinations. R FEBRUARY: On the third the Fourth Form gives n charming little pro gra a in the chapel. This week the Sevenths and Eighths battle at captainball and although the Eighths win. as usual, the Sevenths put up n mighty good fight. 11 St. Paul and Minneapolis comparisons and jokes having been put aside for the day. we dedicate the tenth to entertaining the girls from Summit. Although we have these affairs only annually, we are fast friends and the afternoon passes all too ipmklv. The hoskethall game planned for the entertainment in which the Summit girls participate is a very good one and lots of fun. After the game the refreshments. Pa. sandwiches, cakes and ice cream, are served. We then dunce until time for them to go home, with everyone wishing we could stage these get-togethers much more often. On Monday, the thirteenth, we have a holiday to celebrate Lincoln’s birthday. On the twenty-first Eleanor Bellows gives a very interesting paper in commemoration of the approaching holiday. In the evening the Sophomores entertain the Seniors at a Washington's birthday party. ’arc Thirty-arm HE 1 0 Z The twenty-second furnishes another vacation ami we devoutly believe all the good tilings we ever heard about Washington. On the twenty-third several Sophomores give very interesting talks on Washington's campaigns and illustrate them with maps that we may appreciate more fully the military strategies of that great general. MARCH: On the sixteenth Dean Gildersleeve comes to talk to us iiIkiuI modern education at Barnard and about education in general. Also on the sixteenth the Senior League gives a dance which is reported as a great success by all attending. On the twcntv-«econd we have our annual Athletic Ban-iptet with its accompanying k-iskcthull tournament, played this year between the Seniors and Juniors and won by the Seniors. On the twenty-third the Fifth Form presents an interesting little play telling the Biblical story of Joseph and his brothers. Ten much needed days of Faster vacation begin on the thirtieth. Pttgr Thirty-right APRIL: We return on the ninth with only nhout six weeks ahead of us! On the twentieth the Parents and Teachers present their Follies ami the dramatic fathers coached by Mrs. Poulstonc arc the hit of the evening. MAY: On the twenty-fourth we have our annual Field Day, and all over-exert ourselves running, jumping, and throwing things. All the next week we labor with exams. Poor Seniors! JUNE: THE social event of the year June 1st. List chapel for the Seniors und Cl ns- Day in the afternoon of the fourth. Commencement, with the Seniors looking tall and dignified in their caps and gowns, on the fifth. JUNIOR-SENIOR 1927 Due to the slaving of the Juniors for days before the great event, the ballroom lltefore the Junior-Senior, the •lining room I could scarcely have been recognized under it-' plentiful decorations of palms, trellises covered with spring flowers of all descriptions, and other ingenious devices for concealing radiators, elevators, and such. All along the hall chairs were arranged for resting places liclwcen dances. Another recuperating room (before the Junior-Senior, the music room I was equipped with wicker furniture, gay pillows, and rugs. It had originally been planned to decorate the roof garden likewise, but pessimism about the weather prevailed, and we were sorry later, for our guests spent more of the evening out there anyway. The excellent punch furnished by the mothers was most welcome, and we are extremely grateful to then. The refreshments—cake. coffee, and ice cream—were also welcome, and again we must thank the mothers for helping Mrs. Coe and her assistants serve them. I . S. If this reminds any reader of unreturned furniture, vases, or rugs, we are sure this year’s Junior Class will Ison I v too glad to make good their losses. I'age Thirl .nin, I’agf Forty THE CHRISTMAS PLAY In fioni of I he castle wall appeared an ol«l, bent bell-man. swing-•nil a lantern and ringing his hell. Ili� old voice m anxiou a lie asked if anyone had seen or heard of I In- whereabout of that jolly old fellow known a Father Christmas. who had been gone from Merry Knitland for many year , before hi question could lie answered, however, the merry •trains of “Cod Rest Ye. Merry Gen!lemon“ were heard, and a |crou| of gaily dro—•oil folk came into ight, singing the old carol. A bugle call and the announcement Make way! Hi Lordship ap-|itoarhelh!” topped them at the door of the cu tle. Tlie Lord and l.udy of the manor a|ipeared. accompanied by court-ladles. A these colorful people swept across the stage, to the castle door, everyone sang again in the joy of the Christinas season. When live castle wall had been lulled back, the interior of the manor was seen. On either aide of the huge fire-plate hung bright diirld on which dragons writhed in ferocious attitude . The whole •ccnc was festive, and the face of the guest allowed their liappines . At the suggestion of hi Lordship the cavaliers look their places for the dance. The stately gentlemen and the graceful Indie, made a beau tiful picture a they went through the intricate � tepa of the old measure. No sooner had this ended than the broom boy announced to all that the Yule 1-og wn routing! Hie Yule Log! Symbolic of Christ mas! Rump! Clump! And the log was in the fire-place. The squire, dressed in rich black and darning orange, then came forward and. with a coal saved from the last Yule l-og. lit thi year's fire. To tlie jolly tune of the old song. “Tile Roar'- Head the pompous Master of Ceremonies led in a gay procession. The lu riou boar's head wa set on the table, the focus of all attention: and the fruit dishes, drinking mug , and mustard pot were arranged around thi main dish. During the feast one of the musicians played the 'cello, adding a very charming touch. One of the old custom was to liave the children of the neighls.r-ing countryside entertain the Lord anil Lady at the Manor. So u group of little hqrt and girl appeared and danced the Shoe Dance. At the close of this they pul their shoes by the fire-place for the squire to fill with gay toy —whistle , trumpets, top , and all miiiinrr of nice things. Singing their thank to the Muster and Mist re ., the children withdrew to the baekgtound amid the applause of the guest . Olt, here we come a-wasaailing. chanted merry voice from the distance, and onto thr stage matched the wavviilrr themselves. Father Christmas, that cheery, ted-cheeked old man. and St. George in person. Then came the hold and fierce dragon, proud King Alfred and hi blushing, dissipated bride; there came old Cole ami hi crony. King William. and then one of the chief entertainment , the Morris men. their sword gleaming on their shoulders and the hell nestled in the bright ribbons at their knee clinking cheerfully. From thr castle door Andrew. the je !er. beckoned wildly for the company to come on. Unwilling. the Lord of tlie Manor finally decided In allow them, and taking up their song once more, they entered the castle door. I p truck the music, and forth came the Morris men. who salianlly fought each other in the dance. Then came a veritable riot in which the noble St. George and thr doughty dragon figured prominently, until everybody. including King- Cole. William, anil Alfred ihi bride toot, were all killed. Dr. Rail, certified eurrr of all ills, went round to each corpse and fed it a pill. I p got St. George; up got King Cole; up got King William; up got King Alfred and hi bride: up got the Mortis m«n. o that only the Dragon wa left dead. Woe to the dragon! He wu fed a poisonous pill which, after a few convulsions and fumbling of anger, killed him on the spot. Then wassail wa passed to all the player , who, after quaffing the drink heartily, took up a collection, sang their thanks, and departed. Page Ferty-onr TT H £ i E Ikir departure caused .i general breaking up of the parly, and. Imwing and scraping. the cavaliers bowed ihcmselve out of the minor. Tlie wall having liern rolled back attain, and the ca� tle -hut off from view, the household marched «hi! of the hour and across tbe Mage in front of the wall. The handsome page . thr lofty Ma� trr of Cere-mettle , the beautiful ladies, and tlte gallant Lord and gracious Lady, all forroeil in a procession, which, glowing in its rich, brilliant color . wa« slightly disillusioning, for although thr clothing was still lovely, the faces of the actors so dote to one were too startling to lie handsome. ElXANoH Billon-Bkttv Iti .w Form V. A word about thr play itself, “The Return of Father Christmas.” It wa� composed by Mb Carse. “compounded of many simples as it were, for it contains the version of tin- old English mummers' play of Saint George; Christinas ballads from various sources, such s th- Boar's Head .Song. lh« .v«ail S� ng. the Yule Log Sing. Cod Rest Ye. Merry Gentlemen, and the less known hut exquisite Sussex carol beginning “(iod bless the mistrrss of this house; familiar dance like the swotd •lance of the Morris men. and Green Sleeves performed by the cavalier group, and. less familiar, tile rollicking ‘hoe dance. The dialogue by wh:ch these traditional elements ate introduced and woven into a whole is Mis Carsc's own. as are alio many of the hits of incidental music. The priiod n piesenled is that of tile Restoration, when English families, weary of Puritanical prohibitions, are welcoming the return of the old Christmas masquers and the revival of ancient holiday cus iom� . We hope that some day Miss Carse will sec fit to publish the play; it i� an exquisite bit of work and well worthy of more general distribution. F.. B. I’upr tori) -In o HOCKEY Kali! Rah! Senior ! Oner more the red nml white ended the hockey wa-m triumphant. The team was extremely good on both the offensive and the defensive o« shown by the fact tliat they � cored a total of twenty-one goals in three games, with only three goals •cored on them. The Junior look second place, winning two out of three game . They scored a total «ix goal , and had a clean slate except for the Senior game, when four goals won for the Senior .

If you didn't see them, you should have. “Hurrah for the Juniors! Hurrah for the Fro.li! chanted the three profier young ladies, with eye wildly fixed on the megaphone, now high in the air. They could hardly cheer loudly enough for the victors or the losers. The younger school turned out well and led many a fine cheer.

Gnr of thr most exciting basket ball season ever had at Northrop took place thi� winter. I ually the tram have been quite unevenly matched; therefore, of course, the garnet have been rather one sided, but this year the three team? competing were practically ei|ual in strength. The Sophomore-Junior game opened the season with a bang. Much (peculation had been made a to the outcome of tin game, but all discussion on the subject ended with the agreement that the teams were too evenly matched to lie able to tell. At the end of the first half of the game the score wa� 10-2 in favor of the Juniors. The Juniors were feeling very much lie:ter than they had been at the beginning of the game; the Soph cmne hack to the lloor with determination written in every face. After fifteen minutes of desperate fighting, the Sophs came out ahead ami won the game by two point . Two days later, the Seniors came onto the floor to battle with iIiom-victorious Sophomore . Their confidence had been hadly shaken; in fact, the mighty Senior were actually worried. And they continued to | e worrier!, for at the end of the half, they had only a one-point lead. During the ten-miuutr intermission the member of the Senior team look turn telling each other how- terribly they were playing. The outcome of the game shows thr iM-nefit drrived from that talk: the Seniors won. 30-21. The Junior-Senior game wo a lilting climax to this thrilling season. Tile Junior were especially anxious to win. since a victory for them meant a chance to play in the tournament, while a loss meant the end of their basket hall ea� on. Their determination wa shown from the moment the referee said. Captain ready? Timers ready? Hie -core staved even throughout three quarters of the game except for short interval when first one team, then tlie other, forged ahead. At the beginning of tbe fourth quarter the Junior gained quite a large lead. The Senior bad timr out. told eaeli other to calm down, and recalled to themselte the fact that their reputation was at stake; then began their recovery. When the final whiqle blew, the score was tied. The captain agreed to play a three-minute overtime period, during which time tlie forward on both train seemed to have gone blind as they all missed et-up shots. At la ( a foul wa called on a Junior player. 'Ihe Senior allot the basket. When, shortly after that, the three minutes were up. the score was 24-23 in favor of tlie Seniors. This year tlie Freshmen played nine-court basket ball. Carnes were played with the three upper cla � e at interval during the class basket ball competition. To the Senior . Junior , and Sophomore this game wa practically unknown; therefore these teams afforded a great deal of amusement to the experienced Freshmen bv their numerous mistake . Tlie Senior and Sophomore won by small eore� ; the Junior lost to the. powerful Frealimtn team by a score of 28-6. On Thursday. March 23. after a very enjoyable banquet. at which many amusing stunt were presented, the tournament between the Seniors and Sophomore took place. Need more Ik- -aid?

For the first time it was held in the Kenwood Armory, us for thr two preceding wrecks it rained nearly every day. and the ground had become so slippery that a horse would have fallen on the Parade, where the show usually takes place. There were more than two hundred spectators, and when the chairs had all been taken, people stood and � ut on the caissons standing about. The classes all went off perfectly—no spills or scares. The first event, the Junior ihree-gailed doss for girls in thr seventh, eighth and ninth grades, was won by Betty Thompson, with Betty Mapes coming in second, and Mary Knoblauch third. In the fivr-gailed class. It nth Clark won first. lone Kuechlc second, and Mary Louise Sudduth third. In the beginners' elans, u cup which had liern presented by Mrs. George C. Beckwith, went to Mary Case, and second and third places were won by Betty Mapes and Martha Partridge. Students from the tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades participated in the Senior three-gaited class. This was won by Mary Louise Sudduth. Mary ( ase and Alice Fraser won second and third. Miss Helen Liw retire. a graduate of Northrop, was ring mistress, und Messrs. McFall and Gruber were judges. After thr show, Mrs. Sudduth. Mrs. Kemp. Mrs. Knohlauch, Miss Carso and Mrs. Roberts were hostesses at a tea given at the school. Although the second and third awards were prevented at the show, the cups were presented at the lea. This was only the Itrginning of our rides: we had several very nice Friday afternoon rides, and Mrs. Knoblauch one Saturday very kindly let us have a breakfast at her farm. Altogether we think this has been one of the very liesl years we have ever had for riding. Hakkikt Kkmp. Pane t'orly-six T H £ FIELD DAY, MAY 26, 1927 50 YARD DASH First: Evelyn Friedman.

Sitting on the garden bench feeling that something was to happen, I watched n huge black cloud cross the sky, which seemed like a large curtain being pulled aside. When the cloud had passed over, the sky became fiery red, but it soon faded and left a beautiful sight. The big I tear and the little lx-ar were real bears. They were lifting their silver heads. I also saw a huge platinum dipper, and near the horizon, a misty cloud co ning toward me which came faster and faster and became clearer. Soon I recognized a winged horse. Why, it was Pegasus! Vnd he was coming right to me. The next second the beautiful silver horse stood beside me. After I had eaught my breath I mounted the shining monster and was carried away into the clouds of imagination. We rode and rode through white, blue, and pray skies. After a while I could see in the distance a city and a wide green river. As we came nearer I saw a beautiful barge. Pegasus slopped at the edge of the lunik. I had never seen sueh a sight, for there Cleopatra sat in the center of lu-r royal galley under a canopy embroidered with gold, arrayed like Venus rising from the sea. while pretty blaek boys fanned ber w ith brilliantly Colored fans of ostrieb feathers. Nothing could picture the scene In-tler than ibis little poem: “’riie liarge she sat in. like a burnished throne.

Vnfit Filty When we hud watched the boat until it was out of sight, Pegasus turned and away we went again into the clouds until we came to another city. The city was wild, people running around screaming and yelling. All at once I heard everyone jeering at something and, turning, saw a cart come slowly through the streets of Paris. A iieautiful woman in a ragged white dress w ith her hands l ound behind her stood erect with her head majestically lifted. The white haired woman was Marie Antoinette on the wav to the guillotine. Men hissed at her, but there were two women who were hanging to the cart and crying. I shut my eyes and turned my head away. Again we were on our way, leaving behind us two picture.'. one Is-autifiil and one horrible. Before I knew it Pegasus had brought me back to my garden, and before I had time to thank him. he was off toward the heavens.

He was wearing the usual garb of n westerner, worn blue overalls, a two-gallon hat. pulled down very low over his eyes to exclude those blinding rays emitted by the sun. a tan vest, heavily beaded, some Indian’s patient work, a bright orange shirt with green lightning stripes, and most prized of all, his high lop lioots and spurs, in which he had great pride. Those Imots shuffled along, rousing little clouds of dust at cadi step, through which the spurs defiantly glittered, elanking out a tune which drifted off on Uneven ing breeze. The horses in the corral were milling and pressing toward the gate. Each one knew that this slim figurr meant freedom, freedom to feed among the cool bills und rest there until the hot morning sun began the next day’s grind. Out of spite to one of these animals which had unsaddled him, the cowboy-stopped In-fore opening the gate and. taking out a match, lit a cigarette. The easy, slow manner in which he did this was enough to exasperate anyone, and the cavvy milled, kicked, and hit, evidently blaming each other for the delay. leaning on the gate cross-armed. Iu_ looked at the horses with a broad smile, broken only l y the glowing cigarette which hung carelessly from one corner of his mouth. “Well, you ol' devils!” he exclaimed, “you can’t even let a feller light a cigarette and enjoy a smoke without tearing down the place, can va? Oh! go on then. I can't blame ya. Want to rest myself.” He swung open the gate and the hones rushed through. Several would try to reach the other side of the gate at the same lime and get jam bed lielwcen the two posts.

But they did get through and in short order, too. Oil they went in a mad rush, their thundering hoofs stirring up a great cloud of dust. Goodnight and sweet dreams.” yelled the loving hut leasing cowpunchcr. After them the refreshing night wind cleared away the dust ami the ravvy could l o seen on the distant hills.

Whereupon, getting up from his soap-box, the speaker took u step and, humming ‘Lannigan’s Ball', liegan to do an Irish jig. Up and down the cpiay he stepped himself, arms swinging and feet living in time to the loud Irish harmony. Perhaps the reader is wondering who this merry crew arc. They are all hoys of Ireland, having lieen horn and now living in the little seaport town of Corey, a quaint, old-fashioned village with its one cobblestone street twisting up the slope into the green hills above. There is the thatched inn. the ’Hogshead', and of course there are the tiny geranium boxes on all the cottages. “The jig forever! The jig forever!” shouted the boys. “There’s nothin’—Faith.

Just ye wait till I get me hands on ye! ye r-r-rascal !’ Mother O’Lory was typically Irish: blue eyes, sharp tongue, stout and loving heart, and devout Catholic spirit. The rosary she wore around her neck was her one inheritance left her by her dear mother long dead. She placed it next in her faithful heart to her husband and small children. Katey, Dennis, and Mickey. “Mickey. I’ve news from yere fayther.” “Hey, mother, I’m acomin’.' He came galloping up to his mother from behind some nearby piles of fishing-nets. ATI. E “Mother, ye don't mean to say from fnytlicr?” Vis, from yrre faylher, ami such great news lis this. Come along ami I'll tell it ye with Dennis and Katcy. They threaded their way up the stony path towards their cottage. Into the front yard, gnyly surrounded by a whitewashed lattice-work fence, they came.

I'agc Fijty lhree A KING, A PRINCE, AND FATE “I won't do this history now! It seem as though I’d done nothing hut study all day long, and anyway it must In- almost lime for my afternoon walk. With these words, a little boy of about ten years rose from a massive armchair, and, closing his hook with a slam, went to the window. He was an attractive child with deep blue eyes, dark curly hair, and a rather sensitive mouth, and he was dressed in a neat white sailor suit. There was nothing very unusual about him; in fact he looked much like any other boy. but he was Prince Karl, the only child of King Frederick of Schleswig-Holstein. However at this moment that thought was not in his mind, but instead, as he stood in front of the window, his forehead wrinkled into a frown over a much more serious problem. It was raining hard, which meant that there would be no walk in the park today. Oh well, he sighed to himself, I'll find something just as good to do. With that he turned and went into the next room. It was his pluyroom, and a very bright and cheery one. Around the sides were shelves containing all the toys imaginable. There were beautiful electric trains, dozens of kinds and colors in lops and marbles, and all the other things which delight any boy. But Prince Karl turned from these objects now and walked to the far end of the room. Along these shelves were ranged the only things which the Prince was crazy about—three magnificent ship models given him by his father, one of the Blucher. another of the Scydlitz, and the last of the Derfflingcr. It always was the dream of the boy to one day be able to command ships as fine as these, and to sail the seven seas in search for adventure of all kinds. As he stood gazing longingly at the Blucher, the King entered and stood watching the little fellow. Frederick was a tall, handsome man of forty-five years, and wore the uniform of a German cavalry commander. His deep blue eyes had a kindly look. 1ml. at second glance, seemed rather sad and appealing. Nine years before, his wife had died, leaving him alone with the infant Karl, on whom he lavished all his affection. The Prince turned, and running toward his father, said chetrily, “Oh, daddy, please tell me some more about the Mollkc. You always stop in the most exciting part. Did she findVumt what the trawler was? Did the Mollkc blow up, and----- “Wait a minute,” interrupted his father. “Come into the library with rne and I will tell you ull about it. if you will promise me to study harder tomorrow than you did today. Dr. Ib'inke said you did not know your arithmetic very well, and a Naval officer must know arithmetic. Thereupon Frederick, taking his son’s hand, went off to the library. “Daddy, you do tell such nice sea stories, and they really sound as if you loved the sea,” the Prince said, as his father finished the tale of the Moltke. “I do love it, Karl. My heart has always been with the sea. “Then why are you in the cavalry?” Karl asked him. “My son, that is a long, sad story, which you are too young to understand, but some day, when you arc older, I will tell you. It is one of the sorrows which a king must bear with a smile. Now you had In-tler run along to your sitting room, for your supper must be waiting for you there by now. That evening as Karl ate his supper, he kept wondering what had happened to his father that he could not l e in the Navy, and as he lay in bod he thought: “It is a sorrow which a king must learn to bear w ith u smile. It was a warm Sepleml cr day seven years later that Prince Karl. sitting on a seat by an open window, was trying to read about the battle of Trafalgar Bay from bis volume of Naval history. I do wish they would leave out some of these dates, and put in some action and excitement------. Here he was interrupted by the entrance of Schmidt, one of the men-in-wailing. “His Majesty wishes to see Your Royal Highness in bis study,” he announced. At these words the Prince laid down his book, and went down the hall to bis father. The King was sitting at his desk with bis favorite dachshund at his feel. Karl,” he said, “sit down for a minute. In a few weeks you will be eighteen. Do you want to go to the Naval College at Kiel, or not? If you do. I will write to Yon Tirpitz at the Admiralty to send word to the College that you are coming. He and I arc old friends, although we are in different branches of the service, and he will Ik very glad to have my son in the Navy. Father, you know I have loved the Navy ever since I was a little boy. Nothing would make me happier than to lie a midshipman! Very well, son, you shall go,” ami in an undertone th: King added, “and may you l e able to remain and become n:i officer. “Why, father, what makes you look so sad?” asked Karl, seeing bis father drop bis eyes to the floor. Karl.” the King l egan, when you were only ten. voi asked ine why I was in the cavalry instead of the navy. Now I will (ell you W hen I was a l oy, I loved the sea just as you do, but my father was very different from your father, lie was a most stern old cavalry commander. Still lie was a mo ' brave and wonderful soldier, and fought with great distinction in the war against Napoleon. Consequently he was most anxious that I should follow in his footsteps. At the time. Non Tirpitz was my best friend, lie Imd just entered the Naval College, and I was very much excited about joining him soon. Hut one evening my father called me to hi n. and nrmls announced that I should Ik- ready to leave the next day for the cavalry school. I went, n I could do nothing else, hut it was T A T -L E R ihc one disappointment of my life from which I have never recovered. Now you had better g lutck to your studying, or Dr. Keinke will be cross at me for keeping you.” Karl wandered back to his room, and resumed his place at the window. Even though I do have to rule some day, I will at least hove the consolation of being able to wear a naval uniform. he mused. “Poor father, it is such a shame! The sixteenth of September dawned at Inst. Everyone about the palace was full of energy and gaiety. All the men-in-waiting seemed to have lost a little of their stiffness, and went about throwing open rooms used only on state occasions. Even the fountains, both great and small, were playing for the great event. It was the eighteenth birthday of Prince Karl. In his own room the Prince stood gazing delightedly into the mirror. And why should he not have been happy? The picture was one to make anyone glad—a tall handsome boy in blue trousers and double-breasted blue naval coat with brass buttons and a white naval cap. The uniform had just arrived in time for his birthday, as had the scroll which he now picked up. It was an imposing document to Prince Karl, and also a very beautiful one. It was from Admiral Von Tirpit ., and stated that His Royal Highness, Prince Karl of Schleswig-Holstein. was now a full Hedged midshipman in the German Naval College. A real midshipman at last! All hi- dreams had come true. Rut all was not joy in the palace this lovely morning. In his study in the East Wing, sat King Frederick. The sun streamed through the tall windows, and made the room warn. On his desk before him was piled his morning mail. Most of it was unopened, hut directly in front of him was a letter U-ar-ing the ini|M-rial roat iff arms of Germany—a letter from the Emperor. The King had read it through once, twice, and vet could he believe what he thought he had read was actually there? lb- read it again. Fagc Fifty-flit Potsdam, September 15, 1901. My drnr Frederick: I believe that tomorrow is the eighteenth birthday of Karl. You will, of course, wish him to servo in the cavalry, according to the tradition of your family. I also wish him to join the cavalry. It is the- best thing a young man of royal blood can do. Therefore as a birthday present to Karl with my most sincere good wishes, give him the enclosed document—liis appointment to the Royal Cavalry School. I assure you that he will have the lx st of training, and he shall 1m the constant companion of my son Freddie. I shall eagerly await news from you, staling that he has arrived at the school safely. Always your friend. Wilhelm. As the King read the lost word Wilhelm, he felt as though he stood surrounded by a black wall. Should he defy the wishes of the Ftnperor? It was impossible. He seemed to see the picture of Karl as he walked up to him that morning, radiant in his new naval uniform, radiant because his lifelong dream had come true, and now his fate was to be that of his father's. Me must put away his naval uniform for that of a cavalry oflierr- Karl, who hated horses, and whose sole dream was of a slim gray cruiser slipping out to sea to search for adventure. As he thought of these things tears came to the kindly man s eye . He would not tell Karl now not until the surprise birthday partv was over—not until the I toy had enjoyed one day of real life. The Prince stood, resplendent in the new naval uniform, with his father Itefore the great carved doors of the ball room. Two mcn-in-waiting sw ung litem open. Never did a finer spectacle meet the eyes of a delighted Prince. Down the center of the long while and gold room, stretched a table, glittering with glass and silver. On cither side, behind their chairs, stood two hundred midshipmen, the freshman class of the Naval College. As the Prince advanced and took his place at 'arc Hfly six one end of the table opposite bis father, three rousing cheers echoed through the room. 'Hie president of the class welcomed him in the warmest terms. Karl became more and more excited as the luncheon progressed. Was ever anything so wonderful, he thought, as he looked down the rows of laughing “middies. The boy on his right was telling of the gay limes they had at the College, when the birthday cake came in -a huge structure with a perfect model of the Seydlitz in white icing in the center surrounded by eighteen candles. At the sight, a roar of applause arose from the midshipmen, which increased when ice cream was brought to each one in the shape of a German l«ittle cruiser. After lunch there was a walk in the park, and then, all too soon for Karl, came the parting. The hilarious “middies, who were to go back to Kiel on a special train, carried the Prince on their shoulders to the terrace of the palace, where Karl, in hesitating phrases— his first attempt at spceclimaking thanked them for the mo ', wonderful party he had ever had, adding that he would join them at Kiel next week. In u window above the terrace, his father heard these words, his head bowed with grief. That evening Karl was in his room, sitting on the window tell admiring still the most thrillng present of all. his appointment to the Naval College. The sun had gone down and the lights were on. A light breeze just stirred the curtains. The door opened and the King walked in. “Karl, my son, you have had the most wonderful day of your life. Remember it always —always. I have here a letter which came in this morning’s mail. You must read it. I will not stay. You would not want me to. I cannot. You must do what it says. It is Germany’s wish. Good night, my boy. God bless you. As he said this he handed Karl a letter, and walked from the room. Karl opened the note, and read it. His body swayed. Hr sal down. The model of the Seydlitz on the mantel became a blur. He was at the bottom of a smothering pit. His life bubble had been pricked. Why did he keep on living? lie • atv the face of the midshipmen upturned, smiling, looking at him. He would never see them again. He would never stand on the bridge of a slim gray cruiser slipping out to sea. “It was Germany’s wish.” It was a sorrow that lie, n prince, a king to lie, would bear with a smile; but u disappointment he would never get over. An hour later, a eool night breeze was still stirring the curtains. The palate slept, and a silvery moon shone through the windows of one room on the brass buttons of a naval coat that would never Ik worn again. Helen Tittle, Form XI.

MOTHER’S PUPPY Years ago when she was looking about in a shop in Denmark. .Mother came upon a little dog made of iM-aiiliful Copenhagen china. It so struck her fancy that shr decided she couldn’t come home without it. Therefore, when she arrived in New York, it was with the hound puppy, carefully wrapped and packed, in her hand . When, live years later, she came out West to live, the puppy came out too. and ever since has reposed on the lop of the bookcase. Among ill • fir-t admonitions to new rnoicls is the warning to Ik extremely careful of Mrs. Hotter!s’s dog. and, as children, we were allowed to gaze at it in awe, hut never to touch the precious puppy. The most striking feature of the little rhina dog is his expression. Soft, brown eyes look ut you in the most plaintive. puppy-like way. You would almost lielieve in looking at his delicately shaped nose, that if you reached out to touch it. it would nuzzle into your hand, soft ami cold. He lias long, floppy ears, cocked out just enough to give him a slightly animated air. Four huge paws, tt« out of proportion to the rest of his body ns those of hound puppies always are. sprawl out from under him as he sits in his somewhat awkward position. His left hind foot sticks out in front so that you can see its soft, pinky pad. which is so clean and nice you think lie must have just had a hath. From pressing so much weight on one of his front feet, his collar hone bulges away out. From the big spot on the middle of his hack to the three little wrinkles over the left eye, he is ns real a dog to Mother and me now. os any which ever lived and breathed, and I sincerely believe that a broken leg on the part of one of the children would Ik no greater calamity than the loss of one of the hound puppy’s big. floppy ears. , VII F.

The shoemaker, the barber, the baker, the butcher, llir rich man. the poor man. and all other kinds and assortments of people pushed and shoved their way toward the tiers of seats forming three side of the gigantic structure. The scene was most colorful, the brilliant reds, yellows, and greens of the people’s clothing being made more gorgeous by the sunlight. Wherever there was any space that could possibly he used for de oration, either colored pirtun - of dragons, or scenes from former lights had bren painted. But you are doubtless wondering about the cause of this excitement. It was the day of a great dragon fight! These people loved ibis strange sport, and would pay large sums to see it. In a small enclosure at the end of the sandy arena was the dragon, unseen save for the smoke be breathed. In a similar place at the opposite end sat the person who was to kill the terrible beast. And that person was I! “I'm afraid! I cried to myself. It seemed to me that I'd sat doing nothing for hours. Suddenly, awaking hip from my stupor, came a clear bugle call. Almost simultaneously the horrible, smoke-breathing dragon burst forth from bis den into the arena. The sun glinted on bis scaly skin, making it •bine like burnished gold, while his eyes shone through the smoke like two bright coals. Kcalixing that I must leave the shelter. I rushed out with a shout. “Hah! Ball! Death to the dragon! yelled I, as, with spear in hand, I rail at my adversary. When about ten vard� from the beast.

My mind was all a jumble—why wouldn't my feet move! where was Mother! the beast would kill me! 'I’hcse. and many other thoughts entered my mind. As I felt his hot breulli upon me.

The turkey’s fame comes, not while he in living and running mound on Iris two somewhat inadequate looking legs, hut when lie has been toasted to a turn, stuffed with that essential dressing. his partner in fame, and set savory and 'teaming hot in his place of honor on the feasting board. Selecting a suitable turkey is an art in itself. That delicious. toothsome roast turkey is the finished product of the butcher's and the cook's art. A young gobbler, not too fat. not too lean, does more justice to the cook's ministrations than any other fowl. The dressing must lie made with infinite care. Dressing can make or ruin the taste of a turkey. A ghastly sin is committed by stuffing the turkey with oyster dressing, flic delightful and delicate taste of the well cooked turkey is Iiredominated by a fishy flavor, which is very well in it place � ut ruins and disguises what would otherwise lie known as roast turkey. The culinary art is sacred to the rite of the kitchen and shall not lie flaunted by one who knows only too little about the process of roor mg a turkey. Suffice it to say that when the appropriate dressing has lieen made and the bird stuffed with it. the cook then performs the surgical part of her calling. She must indeed l� e a versatile creature. After the cavity is sewed up. the legs lied together, and also the wings, the young tom is placed in a roasting pan which has some mystical solution covering the bottom of it. The turkeys of our forefathers truly must have lieen dry to eat. for they had to roast them on a spit, thus losint a great deal of the valuable juice which goes to make the breast and otlirr parts so enticing to the palate. From lime to time the gobbler is lusted with the mysterious solution in the pan and turned from one side to another. When he is browned to perfection, he is removed from the pan and placed on a platter, a lieautifully roasted turkey. 'are Sixty Hi aroma is intoxicating. His taste i� Ik-yond mere words. He is the quintessence of perfection, a food lit for kings and powers. He tickles the palate. Otherwise sons iiwn make gluttons of themselves over him.

I suppose I must tell you the truth—I don't know I'm such a queer mixture. I don’t think that even a chemist could analyze me. Hut—as far as some things go—I really believe I'm a fool.” Is that all? queried Conscience sternly. Are you sure that’s all you can find to criticize? “Uh—no, I squirmed. “Of course I know I'm terribly mean and quarrelsome. Uh--. Kind of hard to admit, hut what about it? He looked at me quizzically out of one half-closed eye. “l-I-l think so too, conceded I. “It isn't right for me to do that, hut still I'm no worse than some others because—” here I found myself cut short by a sharp squeeze.

MY EVENING EXCURSION It was a lieauiifiil. dear evening in September. I took my canoe out on the lake, waiting for the full moon to rise. In the west was a mass of golden clouds. The dark reel afterglow of the sun threw lieautiful lights on the water, and the sky altove was tinted with purple and orange. Then, lie fore the colors entirely faded, the moon rose? out of the east. I watched it grow bigger and brighter as it elimh.-d higher. Soon the moon was high in the sky. and the reflection in the water was lovely. I tried to keep my canoe in its silvery path, and going along in it I reached home, much delighted with my evening excursion. Anne Morrison. Form I. T H £ 1 0 X With the advent of Mr .
