TIIE GOLDEN-ROD. S xdlikqgeg. Edited by Alice M. Briggs, ’07. Delia E. Burke, ’07. Herbert Wilkins, 07. Alice E. Williams, ’98. “Our Animal Friends” is an in- structive as well as humane paper. A good class motto is found in the “ Alpha” namely “ Row, not Drift.” There is an interesting continued story in the Lynn High Gazette for May. There is some fairly good manu- factured wit in the English High School Recorder of Lynn. Some of the school papers do not make much of their exchange column. Success to the Collegium, P. E. Island, and success to the young men of that beautiful little island. It does one good to read words of such true patriotism. We are pleased to acknowledge the following exchanges: The Bud- get, The Chronicle, The School Record, The Holy Cross Purple, The Breeze, Mount St. Joseph Collegian. In one of the exchanges are noticed the following words which seem applicable to all: “ Learn to discriminate between things that are important and things that are unimportant.” “Only a flower of no renown Growing alone on my native down, To bless and cheer in my lowly way The hearts of men whom you would slay.” —Carrier on. The Lynn Recorder is good out- side, and shows great ambition with- in the cover. Very interesting is the High School Times, Dayton, printed on excellent paper with good clear type. “ Scientific Notes” in the C. M. F. S. Register is found to be an interesting column. The Newton High School Review commencement number• is doubly bright, not to mention the bright faces. There is an article in the High School Recorder entitled “ Speaking Distinctly,” which the class in History ’98 would do well to read. Our Dumb Animals Avith its admirable reading matter and its beautiful illustrations is always welcome. Geology ’97 Teacher—“ What is the name of the mineral you have been working on.” Pupil—“ It ?s (a) conundrum. “Spake full well in language quaint and olden, One who dwelt beside the castled Rhine, When he called the flowers so blue and golden, Stars, that in Earth’s firmament do shine.” —Longfellow, Invitations have been received to the wedding of Miss Gwynn, a former teacher of the Quincy High school. “Youth longs and manhood strives, but age remembers, Sits by the raked up ashes of the past; Spreads its thin hands above the whitening embers, That warms its creeping life blood to the last.” —Holmes.
