It was after a. senior elass meeting, And it happened they chanced to roam. Down near the mansion of C. H. Deane, As they were going home. One said, L'llet's serenade our friend, Deane. Said another, t'Thatls just the thing. The third one said.. as they neared the house, t'What in the world shall we sing? So they stopped and thought it over, And decided upon a. song, Then giggled merrily to themselves, as they Went running along. ' Over the fence they gracefully ? climbed, Stood under dear teaeher's winder. And except an oeeasional laugh, Nothing their song did hinder. 'Alf We knock the 'll' out of Charlie. The strains rang loud and elear- Oh. what a dandy, great big joke. They were playing on teacher. dear. lt makes us sad to eonfess it, But Charlie was wont to roam, And altho the singing was very nice, 'Twas a ease of 'tNobody Horne. 4Gladys Finney.

THE DEVIINS BOX. fiiany. many years ago there lived eight lovely girls and two handsome boys in a faraway secluded garden of Natures mast beau- tiful production. No din of war had ever been heard in this peaceful, quiet garden, and no suffering had been caused by jealousy, spite, falsehoods, prejudice and ignorance. In this garden lived boys and girls made happy by mere truth, beauty, innocence, purity and love. Here the huge fir and pine trees grew ti the heights of their gloiy while the grassy sheathe below seemel to wave its glaglness to the gentle warm winds. Beautiful wild flowers nodded and bowed along the sloping bank of a little brook that gurgled and sang over the various eolored pebbles and ran on and on forever. Here and theie a erystal pool offered its services as a mirror or a bathing place for both swan and fair maiden. The sparkling founfains that rose in their midst made beautiful rainbows in the bright sunlight. Far thru the trees could be seen a white figure moving, ah, it proved to be a beautiful, slender maiden elad in the sheerest of white materials. The wind gently fanned the loose curls of her long auburn hair and no ornament adorned it but a. few modest violets Whieh elung tenderly to the curls. The girl carried a. roll of manuscript in her hand and now and then she would stop and write in it. Yes, she was an authoress, and bit by bit, she wrote down her inspirations as received from nature. Here and there she stooped to caress a timid little tlower and from among the trees the birds chirped and trilled at her. Suddenly, shrill and loud from SOI1lll'xVl102 0 came a voice, llelen, llelen, Polly wants a cracker so bady. llut what is this troop coming running and dancing merrily along? llelen watched them advance, and then with a. merry little laugh she ran lightly away, the group of white clad figures in wild pursuit. K'Oh, you eannot hide from us, cried Ruth, as Ilelen was at last captured, I may he slow and poky but I ani lieeter than you. L'We thought you would be lonesome without us, and anyway, we can all work better while Loie plays for us on her harpfl This was from Gladys, the poetess, as she settled herself comfortably to write. HI haven't enough reeds to tinish my basket. You are not busy, Hazel, so come with me to search for more. So Genevieve and Hazel tripped noiselessly off, hand-in-hand. On Hazel's brown head rested a neat, white nurse's cap, but she was not only a nurse, but also a very etheient doctor. Soon the girls returned with Robert and Philip, who Were toil- ing under the load of reeds. In addition, Robert was carrying a large law book, while Philip Carried a well-worn Bible. In the rear followed Bertha, carrying a basket of asters, and on her dress was
