.. l he Qhnal.. I stand upon the heights, and gaze afar, To trace the weary road that I have come: And still too distant, see that glorious star That lured me, to all else deaf, blind, and dumb, To cast off skepticism as a bar, . And follow on. For this bright vision, drifting swiftly past, I have resigned all happy youthful joys, Forsaken life's gay pleasures, for the vast And trackless wilderness. The pretty toys Of worldly fancies, I have scorned at last, To watch the dawn. My goal is far before me, and I fear That never shall I reach it, through the strife That hinders me, but through the darkness drear Ioften see a vision of new life, Where, close beside me, stands my Sovereign dear, And night is gone. -Dorofhy IVf1ff716j'1 '14 97

After this brick ice cream with white cake was served. On each plate was a red caruation, carrying out beautifully the color scheme of the evening. Mr. Clifton M. Mackey, President of the S. E. N. Class of 1913, was one of the guests. At the hour of twelve the O. P. C. Seniors like so many Cinderellas departed, An enjoyable evening was indeed spent with the S. E. N. Seniors. HERIN GO-BRAUGHV' Mrs. VV. B. Morrison was the charming hostess on March 3, to the Young Men'5 Sunday school class of the Presbyterian church, and the young ladies of the Junior and Senior classes of the Presbyterian college. The parlors were gaily festooned in St. Patrick decorations, and a large green shamrock occupied a place of vantage. From the chandelier to the four corners were strung miniature shamrocks, and a vase of cut flowers graced the piano. During the evening divinity and delicious refreshments of brick cream in the center of which was frozen a green shamrock and in which was stuck an Irish Hag, were served. The quartette rendered several excellent selections, much to the delight of the girls. Readings and musical numbers by some of the young ladies added to the enjoyment of the evening. Among the other invited guests were Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton and Rev. Herman Jones, pastor of the Presbyterian church. Six o'clock on the morning of January 12th, did not find the Juniors of O. P. C. rubbing their eyes and sleepily inquiring whether or not the rising-bell had rung, but grouped around a jolly campfire, about a mile north of the city. For here on the bank of picturesque little Chuckwa they had been invited to breakfast by Misses Eagleton and McCain, class sponsor and advisor. Never before did such eggs, bacon and coffee delight the palate of mortal ! And the exquisite pleasure of toasting bread and one's lingers- such joys can only be mentioned,-description is past the art of human ! The last delect- able morsel, in the shape of oranges, disappeared rapidly, as the initials of the class members, and the date of the memorable outing, were carved in the massive rock that towers high above the creek. Then with vigor and energy imbibed with the cool morn- ing air, as the return joy-ride brought them back to the confines of the city, the very echoes re-echoed, Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah ! Rah! Rah! McCain l Eagleton li An audience that taxed the seating capacity of the Durant Theatre greeted the ege girls last night in their presentation of Shakespeare'S fireat Comedy, As You Like It . This testimony of appreciation was Well merited fOr :tie P13-yu Was one of the best home talent entertainments ever staged in Durant.
