This Age OF Speed by ELEANOR DOYLE, xi com. Speed! The theme of the youths that populate this world today. The thrill of the race against time. But do we stop to think for five minutes what disaster and tribulation follow in its wake? The great meaning of one five letter word. We walk along a crowded street where traffic is kept in check by the trusty policeman. Used to this mode of regu- lated speed we do not realize that on the high- way a small coupe with a young dare-devil at the wheel may be racing to a sudden and disastrous stop. Do we consider that on the race track small race cars are skidding around corners, one slips, and many pile up over the little four-wheeled messenger from death? In one congested mass of human beings and twist- ed metal lies the ruination of many other people's lives. The grief-stricken young sweet- heart, the heart-broken mother, and the father that can't grasp the fact that his son is gone. Speed, that will succeed a hundred times but will fail on the next journey. The thrills, the successes, the anxieties are all not worth the final triumph. There will always remain the people whose lives have been ruined and whose dreams have been shattered by our modern menace-speed. Concentration by sumtsv Asnsv, sp. com. Well, I suppose I have to start at my home- work now. Perhaps I should go iirst and have a look at the weather reportg I certainly hope it doesn't say 'warmer'-That would spoil the skating. That reminds me. I really should 'phone Carol and see if she is going to the Arena tomorrow night. Oh! there's the 'phone nowg maybe it's Carol calling me--It is. Honestly, I can't talk very long now, but I want to know if you're coming with us to the rink. You're not! -but you must. It's going to be wonderful, everyone will be there. Much, much later . . . Darling, do you know it's eight-thirty, I have at least an hour's French to do, and tons of Latin .... I simply must hang up. I'm so glad that Fuss Budget said . . two pages beginning with sixty-seven. That must be it-I remember seeing it written on the board. It does look hardg I should have started it sooner, but now I'll have to skip over some of it, because I have that Trig. to do too. Oh! there's the 'phone again-Dad's answered-it's for me. Who could that be? Why Ross, I didn't think you would call tonight. It's quite late .... what's that? You just came home from the com- mittee meeting and they're going to have a dance on the tenth . . . that's next Tuesday. Why yes, l'd love to go! It would be grand. Really, I should go now and finish my home- work. 'Nightl Oh, look at the time-Well, it's certainly too late now to do any more work. you changed your mind.- Bye-bye. Oh, now I do have to get started. Let's see, what was it 5' There's still tomorrow before nine. Picture Section CELEBRITIES: TOP Row-Princeps Alumna: Marg.
