3231 . S17 ,sep S.. as l in E lower' Margaret Crane PRIZE PAGE fflzcarded Io the class the greatest per cent of whose members sub- scribed for the fllayflozver during the drive carried on early in the yearj ARGARET Crane lived at Silmons Bay, an old sea port on the Atlantic coast. She was the pride and joy of her father, but a cause of endless trouble and worry to her aunt. Margaret's father was the captain of a large cruiser and was at home only at the brief intervals be- tween cruises. Her mother had died when she was a baby and so the task of bringing up lVIargaret had fallen, largely, to her Aunt Nora. This was not an easy task. In the first place, Aunt Nora was strong willed and very particular that Iklargaret should be, in every respect, a lady, neat, polite, prompt and cheerfully obedient, honorable in work and play. lVIargaret, too, was strong willed but her standards for herself were not so high. VVhat she Wanted was a good time, and lots of fun, and this she would have in spite of the opposition of her aunt and other hindrances. Nlargaret was not especially fond of school, although the work was not hard for her when she applied herself. The summer of Mar- garet's sixteenth year had quickly passed, and when fall came she had classified as a Junior. One day, shortly after school had begun, Mar- garet and her friend Emily Marwood were discussing the new principal. How do you like him ? asked Emily. Oh, all right, so far, was the reply, al- though I haven't had a good chance to get ac- quainted yetf' Isn't he classy looking? demanded Emily, so short and small and neat looking with those hornrimmed glasses of his. I wonder if he's cross. He looks as though he might be. We won't be in doubt long about that, said lllargaret. If there is anything to find out about his genial disposition, I'll probably be the first one to know it. VVe are sorry to say that, within a few weeks' time, Margaret had very definite opin- ions about the very disagreeable character of Professor Blair. It had all happened over drawing a map of India in History class. Thirty-two Margaret was called upon to draw it upon the You can board. I can't,,' said Margaret. at least try, replied Professor Blair, but Margaret did not move and would not move. The professor loved discipline and Margaret was promptly sent to the office. After class, so Margaret reported later, Professor Blair had given her a serious talk and had told her to remain after school to do the drawing. This was the beginning of Margaretls trouble with the teachers and throughout the year there were more conflicts of wills. The brighter side of Margaret's school life was the social life. With most of the boys and girls she was popular. Although she lost, by five votes, the presidency of the Junior Class to a tall, dark boy, Walter White, still, she was elected vice-president and was the heroine of the high school play. She was fond of sports and had already won much admira- tion and several prizes by her strength and daring in ice-skating, swimming, and boating. It is no wonder that her classmates looked up to her as a natural leader and often envied her. It seemed to them that she was always having a good time and carrying off all the honors. Nevertheless, Iwargaret did not always en- joy herself. Her aunt disapproved of, and strongly opposed, much that she did and the teachers and her school work cast a shadow over her otherwise happy life. True peace or mind and happiness comes from doing some real work well and not from frivolous joys and pastimes of the moment. Margaret did not appreciate this fact. Spring came and she was more than ever anxious for the dismissal of school. She was anticipating the voyage with her father on one of his cruises, which he had promised her some time ago. However, as yet school was not over. There was still some hard work to do and the final examinations to take. Just last Wediiesday Professor Blair told her that she was doing very poor work in History and would have to
