Firelight Fancies of a Senior By Mary F. Pierce, '08 ' OU have all heard of pipe dreams, also of other kinds of dreams, andyou have I all had dreams in front of a fireplace. Sit with me before ab large grate-hre with burning logsg turn the light low and draw your chair up. Let us put on a piece of paper to stir up a blaze, now watch it flare up and die away into embers. Does that not remind you of your college course? How brilliant, cheerful, change- able and short it has been! And now we have the embers, embers of memories which shall never die, but shall glow and shine in our hearts throughout our lives. Remember the Freshman class of '08 with Crane as president, because of his prestige from Hprepl' days. And the dream from Long Beach was vice-president. We did cover ourselves with glory at that reception we gave to the Seniors. That reception has not been equaled since! We showed people how to give something besides a jolly-up. And we did not leave out the jolly-up either when we rode over to Dix's from Anaheim Landing. As Sophs over on Berry's lawn we gave the Freshmen, who were ably assisted by the Class of '07, a scrap for their health and good looks. lt was not good for their looks, but it improved their scrapping capacity so much that it was still in evidence on College Day at the end of the year. We took off the Seniors on that College Day, after which we sprung corduroys and blue and yellow parasols. The Class of '09 took a fancy to one of those parasols, in fact, took the parasol, with the result that two men were carried off the scene of action. When we were Juniors we had a few staff meetings with the editor of La Encina. We also had some rehearsals for The Princess. That very name suggests artistic classicism. It was 'fclassyf' to say the least, especially the Hflittingf' But afterwards was the house party, and it was classic. In fact, we are the only class who can successfully have a house party. We are always there when it comes to taking off Seniors, so we did it again and Finished them off the last of the year 1907-so well indeed that Prexy,' said no one could ever do it better and that no one need try, for he wanted us to have the prestige of past masters of the art. The nre is dying. Yes, and so are our college days. Our last year has been so rich with its fullness of study hours and good times. Life seems more even, like the coals glowing steadily. The hrst years' experiences of college life Hash, change and soon grow calmer and steadier-then pass away. 'After the coals the embers, then the ashes. Tomorrow will be Commencement, and then College Days are forever gone. But tomorrow rises the warm, bright sun, tomorrow is the Commencement-the Beginning. .17 . sa aefgas 4 30
