The future is sure to be unprece- g dentedg for, although many have attempted to visualize and some have harbored various psychological theories and proffered rash i 'e '- - speculations, we are all equally ignorant, at this stage, of the great world into which we are advancing. Of only one fact are we con- vinced, that it will be quite different from anything heretofore experi- encedg because we will be different. On this adventure we embarkg the much coveted diplomas actually in hand, symbolizing our added intel- lectual knowledge and sophistication. ' As there is no turning back, we must advance fearlessly, we must separate, leave Glencoe and put away childish things. We stop, and with a backward glance give our final parting advice to those whom we leave behind in the form of the last will and testament of the great and glorious Class of '23. 1. To our successors in the topmost class we leave: a. The suspense of the tense months before your fate is decided by the mysterious summons to Room -5 Floor, 29 House, New. b. The joy of studying away from the mediocre masses, taking spe- cial precautions to keep one's brain active by sitting bolt upright. c. The advice never to substitute sleigh rides or anything at all for Saturdays in town. d. The customary privileges, along with the newly acquired one of having dates with prunes and with the hope that you will get Tea, Tea, Tea! II. To those who have not quite succeeded we extend: a. The wish that they will some time reap the harvest of hard toil and gain the goal of graduation. b. Our few humble outstanding traits with our kindest regards to those they concern. 1. Ginky's love to Beeber. 2. Ba1lou's energy to Angela. 3. Eda's southerness to Marian Stanwood. 4. Addie's baskets to Louise Gray. 6. Ariel's straight hair to Roccena. 7. Amelia's serenity to Casey. 8. Caveman's emotion to Tilly.

I picked up myself or did I pick myself up-it was all mystery. On every side I was hedged in by cliffs, or was I cliffed in by hedges, who can tell? At any rate there was something on the tops of these cliffs waving at me, waving- waving until it seemed one distinct blur against the confuddled landscape. My head gradually cleared. As I have always been curious, I was anxious to know what it was. I hastily started out, hastily indeed, for it took me barely a second to float up one hundred feet to the wave and what should it be but my old friend Caveman, back in the caves, literally or figuratively, who can tell? She was standing on a jutting ledge. Hi! Listen! she said, come into my cave a minute. Lemme show you something. In my dazed condition I followed her into the cave. There they are, she said. As I grew accustomed to the dim light I discovered a semi-circle of weird forms. Don't you recognize them ? No, I confessed lamely, I do not. It is the good old class of '23. So it was. I staggered for support against the wall. Somehow I felt an outsider. Yes, I could hear Ginky say in at weary voice, it is a diflicult posi- tion I hold at Annapolis trying to be a mother to those motherless mid- dies. I have a new plan worked out in the weekly tiddly-winks and par- chesi tournaments of giving them milk and sponge cake instead of ginger ale and cake. My husband thinks it is much more healthy. Since he has resigned from active service, he has been teaching domestic science at the Academy. Probably he teaches very wellg but, as you can see, Caveman ex- plained, pointing around the neatly fitted cave, one can do without it. The life of a hermit is simple and how I love it! But it can't compare with Greenwich Village, chorused Pat, Billy, and Allie. My designing, said Billy. My drawing, said Pat. My writing, said Allie, keep us quite busy, they chorused.

' Really, Caveman, interrupted Ariel, this cave life must be very bad for your health. It certainly is damp in here. You will probably die of cerebral-bronsneezitis. I don't know much about this disease as I stud- ied it my first year of training, but come down to my office some day and let me examine you for symptoms. Oh, Ariel, said Adelia, you're always trying to scare people to death if you cannot scare 'em oif as patients. I wish you would give it 11p and be the choir mother at the cathedral. Those small boys sing di- vinely, but I get so engrossed in my playing on that marvelous organ that I never can remember to reprove them for their behaviour. Yes, yes, said a quiet little voice, rather like the Dorm Mouse in Alice-in-Wonderland, I hardly recognized it, this cave would afford good material for my next book. I must devote at least one chapter to stalac- tites. Scientific research, an absorbing subject. So this was Riggs. I would never have known it. As I was standing there wrapt in awe and admiration a deep laugh came to my ears. I looked around. Who was that? Rapidly I summarized the remaining Seniors. It was-it must be-Ballou. How changed! How masculine! From the conversation of her admiring friends, I gathered slowly that for the past years she had been taking the place of the doughty hero, spurred on by her success in the Brushwood Boy for nonchalance of attitude, together with her fiery nature, had won her many admirers among the fairer sex. In fact, she had completely taken over Wallace Reid's followers. I have a letter from Stuart, her deep voice rang out, she is in Si- beria, cell 63, and yet she seems perfectly happy. I will read you some extracts-wait a minute. 'Dear Ballou-This must be short as my pet rat who carries this to the mail can only take a few ounces'-um, um-'I am en- closing a clipping which you may have missed, though the paper it was taken from is several months old.

Literature Over fhe Hills and Far Away Beyond flue Purple Rlimu WAS breathless with excitement. There was a beautiful new quilt over the bed. It had come this morning from my uncle in Japan. I knew it by heart, as far as the Purple Rim. There was a garden with a queer pink treeg three very tall i ' white flowers in a row by themselvesg a little brown path, and a - gl. lllliriiv' patch of other flowers unlike any that I had ever seen. These Howers were of fifteen different colors. Then came a border of deep purple. What worried me was the fact that I could not see beyond the Purple Rim. There were three little hills in the cover just beyond the beginning of the Rim, and I could not see over, them. I could imagine what was there, though. . My back hurt me a little more than usual this morning. The board had been strapped too tightly, but I wasn't going to cry. I had a wonder- ful new cover over me, and I would soon find out what was beyond the Purple Rim. Perhaps, it would be a stream of cool water, with a tiny bridge over it. The queer flowers of the fifteen colors would grow all over the banks. The water would be clear, and I would see the shining pebbles on the bottom. I would pretend to go wading in it. How cool the water would feel to my hot feet. The board would be gone, and I would splash and swim in the water. My back would be quite well. Perhaps, it was a land of birds: of blue birds, and red birds, and canariesg of tiny wrens, and of a huge green parrot. All of the birds would hop upon my shoulders, except the old parrot. He would say such funny thingsg but I would not let him see me laugh, because he was con- ceited. I would skip about and feed the birds. My back would be quite s rong. My nurse came in. I quivered with excitement. She was going to take the hills away. I would see beyond the Purple Rim. I held my breath. She was at my bed. She smoothed the garden, the little brown path, the flowers of the fifteen colors. She reached the Purple Rim. then the hills beyond. She had smoothed out the hills. I could not help my tears. There was nothing beyond the Purple Rim. E. C.

Behind him the bay, its blue water ruflied by the breeze, dotted with the sailboats of the fishermen and of the clammers who live in rude shanties barely discernible on the shores. g The boy was alone here-alone with the sea and his violin. As he stood looking over the waters, he played, low, sad music with a strangely wild air running through it, now and then bursting out in a triumphant strain, though quickly growing subdued again until it could be heard only in the lulls when it seemed as if the very sea were listening to his magic. The sun was a red ball, sinking behind the horizon when he stopped playing and looked around bewildered. Then laying the instrument care- fully in its case, he strode to the bay where lay his little boatg and rowed away over the dancing waters to where in a solitary cottage his mother awaited patiently his return. The sands looked even lonelier now, and the sea roared on undisturbed until two sea-gulls alighted on the calmer waters for a moment. What did his music say today? asked one lazily regarding his re- flection in the darkening waters. He is sad, very sad, was the reply. He would follow whence his ambitions point and become a great musician entrancing thousands by his fart, but his mother clings to him and will not let him go. Ah, he is very onely. He is not an American boy? said the first. No, the other replied. He is a Belgian. He came here with his mother during the first days of the war, and it was here that he enlisted. Did you not hear the battle strains of his music? The blare of trumpets on parade, the weariness of long marches, the sordidness of the trenches and sounding through it all his dreams of heroism and of fame ? Yes, I heard it all. Poor boy! The sea-gulls rose above the waves and whirred away outlined against the still blue sky, growing smaller and smaller until they were specks on the horizon.

Again the sea-gulls listened, enthralled by the weird lilt of the music. Can you not hear? Can you not hear ? The violin sobbed and the boy's soul seemed to speak through it. How happy I am. All my dreams will come true. I am going to the great city. My mother will at last let me go, and the master says that I can have my chance for fame. Though my heart is sad at the thought of parting, how wonderful it will be to return when I have won acclaim V' The boy played on. Such music had never been heard before, as echoed then among the dunes and over the waters. The ocean sparkled gaily. The sky shone wonderfully blue, and ever in the lulls the music rose, transcendently happy, triumphant. All the sea, yes, all the world, seemed to smile on the boy as he stood there, Youth and Hope personified. When at last he left something of this glory seemed to remain lighting up the scene. Always the sea roared on, now subdued, now loud, as it has through the ages and wiil unto time unknown, seeming to say in its mightiness: I have seen Hope and Despair and the Fulfillment of Dreams. What are these but a passing fancy? I have been here since creation, and have seen all pass away until nothing remains but fancies. They are but Dust, and P .97 I am ower The sea-gulls swept away shivering in the chill of falling dusk, only the crash of the breakers on the shore, and the murmur of the sea, pow- erful, irrevocable, broke the silence.

He had felt it before. It was a mixture of the coming t of spring and the ominous calm before a thunder-storm, a strange conglomeration of happy expectations, yet overshadowed by some grim foreboding. All the week it had filled the air, heightening the terrible living death that he was forced to bear. That and his sunshine were the only two things that kept him from hopeless lunacy. That cheering ray which entered his cell every day when the sun had reached its height, had been his mainstay for these ten long years. It had brought some vague feeling of sympathy and hope to his starved soul besides giving a golden tint to the terrifying lifeless grey of the cell which darkened his life mentally and physically. It haunted him, over- powered him. In the sleepless hours of night he could feel suffocating grey shadows descending upon him-merciless grey walls pressing in upon him. He fought them off, but they always returned. He felt that he, too, was gradually turning grey and lifeless. It was wicked, for he was still in the prime of life. He had been barely twenty-four when he was un- justly imprisoned through a lettre de cachet, without cause except jealous, hateful rivalry. All was gone out of his life except that one protecting ray of sun, the embodiment of freedom and now this strange feeling of excite- ment overshadowed by terror. As night drew on, he heard the hollow steps of the gaoler coming nearer and nearer, the slam of the door as he gave him his rations, then the hollow steps gradually dying away down the little passage. That was all he ever heard, for his cell was at the end of a narrow little hall far from anyone else. He clearly remembered the day when he had been brought there. The terror and loneliness of that cold damp cell haunted by the shadows of previous captives-oh, for sunlight to chase away those dark- eners of his existence. Night had fallen, and he crept slowly over to his hard bed, where he lay gazing at one small piece of sky. He lay there for long. weary hours, tossing feebly, turning restlessly from side to side. Suddenly the sky lighted up red and glowing. He sprang up happily. Perhaps, he thought, it is the end of the world and freedom will be mine once more. He stood there hopefullyg but the fiery red faded away to the faint flush of the dawn and still he was there-in prison! Black despair descended upon him. Strange visions crossed before his maddened eyes of the happy days of liberty. He tried to snatch at them, but they always eluded him,.fading away into the black, awful shadows which he dreaded so, pushing him back, back,-he fought desperately . xii.

When he awakened that strange feeling of excitement came over him intensely. The Bastille rang with thunder and footsteps. He lay there a minute listening to their incessant pounding intermingled with harsh voices. He could not distinguish anything from the mixed rumble, but suddenly a huge uproar rose- Free the prisonersg the prisoners lu So that was what the atmosphere had foretold. To think after all these years, when hope had gone, that he would be free! A wild unbridled joy thrilled him. Strengthened by the excitement he felt young and vig- orous. He stood up impatiently by the cell door waiting. He could hear them coming, a thousand strong, through the powerless building- powerless indeed to keep him any longer. The clang of the first gate as the first prisoner was released, and a wild roar of excitement made his joy uncontrollable. He could hear them cheering as they came up the hall crying: Down with the aristocrats! They were coming, they were almost at the dark little passage leading to his cell. He trembled with excitement. Freedom! In a minute he could say that and mean it. But Why did they not hurry? They were still marching up towards him. Their footsteps were just as strong. Was it possible that their footsteps were fainter? No, they were still strongg it was some trick of his excited brain. He tried to encourage himself, but gradually as he waited they dwindled away, till only the echo remained, ringing mockingly in his cell. There was a ghastly silence after the uproar and a terrible fear came over him. They had missed the dark, little passage to his cell in the recess of the shadowy hall. He seized the bars of the cell, and banged and shook the door, fiercely, madly, like a lion flinging himself against the bars of his cage. Could they hear him? Would they answer him? But the only answer came back in the taunting, mocking echoes. A sudden reaction swept over him. Gone was his former vigor, and he was left a mere shell of his former self, broken in spirit and health. He tottered feebly, supporting himself on the grated door, then regaining a little strength dragged himself back to the window, beneath which he crouched, gazing up at the patch of vivid sky. A ray of sunlight-the ray of sunlight, stole in softly, and tenderly lingered on the forlorn heap huddled on the floor. D. R.

The Dorm-Mouse, unlike most mice, is sometimes inclined to be catty. It is unfortunate that he should have this bad trait, but he will try to make up for it in the future. Interviewer's Corner Again had the time come around for me to interview a celebrity for the Dorm- Mouse. Thus it was that one evening found me wending my way down Slushing Alley, a quaint but pretty little street to number I knocked upon the door, and a sweet voice called: Oh, do come in. I entered. The room was filled with peopleg and as I stood looking around for the object of my search a voice Came from the magenta sofa cushion on the bed: Clear out, girls, I have a date. At this the multitude dispersed. The vision on the bed pointed me to a seat on the shirtwaist boxg and as I sat there, I took a long look at her. Her honey-colored curls were spread over the cushion in undulating waves like the mighty ocean. Her eyes, piercing and deep, were like the eaglc's and ner face was exquisite in every line. Thus lay the president of a great concern. I questioned her and she answered in her soft southern voice: Yes, I like northern men better than southerners. They are much more subtle. The far- ther north I go, the more attractive I find the men. Nothing inspires me so much as an Eskimo. Just then a bell rang and sadly I realized that I must leave, and so I said good-bye. To me this charming object of the in- terviewer's art is more than a mere ce- lebrity. She is ethereal and fairy-like. She is iron beneath velvet-she is Omar Khayyam bound in white kid. POET'S CORNER The Coming of a Chieftain To the shores of Oldflelds, Oldfields, To the gay secluded wigwam On one day in bright October Strode a chieftain, strode a brother. Proudly knocked he at the tent-flap, Demanded haughtily his sister, Waited in the dim interior While innumerable squaws did hash him. With his sister paced the highway, Viewed the old historic landmarks. From the windows of the wigwam Peered the curious laughing maidens. Saw him later in the parlor Imbibing tea and stew of moose-legs, Saw him leave his mirthful sister Bend his boyish handsome profile In a simple, touching farewell, Then stride away to deeds of valor With one tender thought for Oldfields. Household Hints The best method in making your bed is told here. It is unique and useful. Pay your room-mate a quarter! Forty-two May Day Fizb N the three preceding year books we have had very far-sighted 'j 'ul editiors who have been able to tell in the middle of March what 4? May Day would be like at the end of May. Unfortunately, this y year the editors have not the necessary grey matter to write down l- jji'v with absolute assurance, the preparation, process and ultimate result. That seems a great pity because May Day has always been such a big affair at Oldfields and the title of May Queen the highest honor one is able to attain. Every year it is a matter of great excitement involving much nervous strain, as to whether the wonderful day will be fair or rainy, whether the flowers will come at the right moment, whether the florist will have sent the right flowers. Flora and the May Queen do not merely sit around and watch May Day unfold, but work hard to make it a success. The election was extremely close and very thrilling. Our power of prophecy this year is not so weak that we cannot be sure that with such a lovely Queen and Flora May Day will be a huge success.

Under the spirited and very capable leadership of Mar- garet Williams, the Captain of the Greens, and Adelia Willis, the Captain of the Whites, both sides have worked doubly hard for I athletic points. We had scarcely unpacked our trunks, and be- come used to the New Girls this fall before the baseball games began. All the fall the ride went out regularly. Nearly every week-end there were hikes and cross-country scurries over the five-mile circuit, or up the pike. Kick Ball deserves mention among the major sports of the fall. In the winter ice skating was enjoyed by many. In addition to the basketball games, a captain ball team was chosen. In the spring the ten- nis and croquet tournaments excited much interest. BASEBALL . games There was however one game between the Greens and ' Whites, in which the Whites were the victors. The players of each team received the numerals '23, In the spring more games were played. LTHOUGH many played baseball this fall, there were no outside BASKETBALL E HE Varsity was organized early this year, and was picked from the W, best players on both the Green and White sides. Adelia Willis was ' ' made captain and Margaret Williams the manager. A Varsity Squad was also chosen, consisting of six girls in addition to the Varsity, who practiced with the the team and substituted in the outside games. There was no Thanksgiving game on account of the Thanksgiving week-end. The season started with an interside first team game, which was won by the Whites. The Greens won the next game between the second teams. The third game was won by the Whites. This game was close, the final score being eleven to ten. All of the outside games were played on our floor. The Varsity and the Varsity Squad feasted at a training table and practiced constantly. The first outside game was with the York Alumnae. We won this game by a score of forty-two to twelve. The next day we played Holton Arms, and again we were the victors by a score of twenty-five to ten. The next week, on February twenty-third, we played the Collegiate School of Richmond. This was the most exciting game of all. At the end of the third quarter the score was a tie, and much enthusiasm prevailed along the side-lines. However, the Varsity defeated the Richmond team in the last quarter by a final score of twenty-six to twenty-one. We feel that this basketball season has been most successful, and we wish to thank our coach. Miss Lowden, whose splendid training and help have made our Varsity what it is. Fifty-one F011 f 0 r A.

One of the great enthu- siams of her life was the work in the mission field. She gave expression to this deep interest in missions by organizing the Junior Auxiliary at Oldfields. She was one of the first alumnae, and one of the organizers of the association. She l-oved Oldfieldsg and for nineteen years, she la- bored in season and out of season for its welfare.
