THE EASTER LILY Times were dull in Fairyland, and the fairies were discontented. What shall we do? was the question asked on every side. HI know, said one little fairy. Hlietls have a flower contest, and see who can fashion the prettiest blossomf' Many flowers already bloomed in Fairy- land, but the idea was a pleasing one, and each fairy tried to make her flower more beautiful than any ever seen before. The forget-me-notis pale blue was borrowed from the sky, the poppy's deep red from the rays of the setting sun, a stray sun- beam was caught, and from its gold the beautiful goldenrod was formed. Flowers of all colors and shapes made their appearance in the garden of the fairies, and finally all the fairies had tried their skill except one tiny nymph. As she gazed at the beautiful flowers, thinking sadly, VVhy can I not make lovely blos- soms, too? a fleecy white cloud floated by. Chancing to look up, she saw it just disappearing from view. A happy thought came to her, and, journeying to the sky, she obtained from a generous cloud a piece of its snowy white garment. From this she fashioned six slender petals, from a little gold she made a center, and from the finest of Mother Earth's green moss she wove on her magic loom a tall stem and several leaves. Next day the fairies visited their gar- den, and lo! an Easter lily stood in the midst of the flowers, rising in its purity and majestic beauty high above its bright companions. -Agnes Crockett, '13, THE STUDENT'S PROGRESS In the Similitude of a Dream CWith Apologies to Bunyanb As I walked through the halls of our High School, I lighted on a certain place where should be a rest room, and I laid me down in thatlplace to sleep, and as I slept I dreamed a dream. I dreamed, and behold, I saw a Student, wrapt in grief, standing with his face from his own school, a Physics in one hand, a Chemis- try in the other, and a great burden of books upon his back. I looked, and saw him open a book and read therein, and, as he read, he wept and trembled, and not being able longer to contain, he broke out with a lamentable cry, saying, What shall I do? What shall I do lest I Hunk? In this plight, therefore, he went home, and refrained himself as long as he could, that his fond parents should not perceive his distress, but he could not be silent long, because that his trouble increased. Wherefore, at length he brake his mind to his fond parents, and thus began to talk to them: O my sweet mother and my dear father, I, your beloved son, am in myself undone by reason of a burden that lieth hard upon me. Moreover, I am for certain informed that I shall flunk by the hand of my Heartless Instructors, in which fearful catastrophe both myself and thee shall miserably come to disgrace, ex- cept Cthe which yet I see notj some way of escape can be found, whereby I may be deliveredf, At this his doting relations were sore amazed-not that they believed that what he said to them was true, for, like the Faculty, they had once been young themselves CHD and were Wise to ways of youth--but that they thought that some frenzy or distemper had got into his head. Therefore, it drawing towards night, and they, hoping that sleep might rest the aching void wherein most people keep their brains, with all haste they got him to bed. But the night was as troublesome as the day, for shadows in the shape of a Physics Test on the morrow and five pages of Fritz auf Fereinu hov- ered about his head. Wherefore, instead of sleeping, he spent the night in sighs and tears. So when the morning was come and his parents would know how he did, he told them, Worse and worse. But they had begun to be hardened. They thought to drive away his distemper by harsh and surly carriages, and insinuating suggestions concerning the benefits of profitable labor for a malady such as his without the walls of the High School.
