September, nineteen twenty-six, NVas the day that they set sailg Eager to reach their cherished goal- Four years to conquer the gale. First-mate Preston, Second-mate Weeks, And roust-a-bouts Gus and Ed, R YVith Felix, the mascot, lapping up leaks And Richardson to see they were fed. The head ofthe crew was Ellie. Palios and tracks were won, The Red Feathers hiked at every port Ere their first year was done. The Glee Club with its golden clef- An ever-inspiring work. Elinor Rice of Dramatic Club . Directed the Mask and Dirk. That summer they put into dry dock, For dramatic and music room Were needed by each and every gob To give the ship a boom. ge Although they had lost five of their crew They started with Chloe as guide In twenty-seven, and sailed again, Three new ones at their side. --+wis8J4'- The waves were rough, the good ship rocked, Two proms and then a play. Costume parties, frivolity ruled, And nonsense held full sway. Some were reported and put in irons, S. G. pins valued not they. They'd rather earn athletic awards Than on the honor-roll stay. Friday noon came never too soon- The gobs were sure to rally, Delicious eats and ice-cream sweets Were served in Cooley's galley. Year '28 now hoved in sight- Three gobs then went away, And Ianet became the head of the crew With one new gob to stay. On Halloween the night was keen, The Fish-Fans had their frysg Nlary, as Greta, the movie queen, Easily won the prize. Port Vista del Lagog the Iuniors fair Entertained the famished crew. A delicious repast, and then the gobs Took the Iuniors out to Glenview. Graduation with all it brings, The feast ofthe double A Awards of medals, num'rals, and R's Made the month of Iune quite gay. Christmas morn, all garbed in white, On deck they came to sing. Conductor Kohlsaat, wand in hand, Helped make the welkin ring. -erf59144'- W 'illfge Qliriffiu The Cgriffin 6 9 G Q Into smooth waters the gallant ship rode, With a sober and studious crew. 'Twas '29, their final year, And their chief was Ellie Stew. Two gobs had quit, and five joined on, They all grew very serious. The time was short, the way seemed hard The future looked mysterious! Hockey spread and basketball feast, In the Fo'cas'le Gym, gave delight. Speeches and stunts and very good eats Cheered everyone in sight. The Senior play was a great success. The Hearth, on which a Cricket Iumped a mile when the table collapsed And acted very wicket, Senior speechesl How alarmingll Hearts are palpitating fast. Counselor Mitchell's great assistance Surely means success at last. Home port at last, all safe and sound, The crew are thirty-four. Their life together, sealed by love, Will last forevermore.

Tilsted Tours The Higlz Spots ot' Yew Nork Covered in 8 hours Rubberneck Guide Book Tilsted Air Route, Inc. Patented 1950 A. D. ,..,,,f6 1 we gui Ulhe Eriffin The Cgriffin Guide Book You will pull away from Yew Nork's main airport at nine in the morning in our Tilsted air bus. On the right appears a one-thousand story factory, through which Ed, the janitor, will kindly show you. The first ten floors are exclusively devoted to the extended offices of Mary Rhodes, who has nearly gone mad in an attempt to devise a calendar consisting only of week-ends. This new calendar is being patented to console her dear friend, Betty McKay, who now ranks among the numerous sky widows, Bob having recently shot off to Mars. On the 110th story there is the great laboratory of the Schafer-Bliss Pill Company. The former has just received a patent for her famous wisdom pills, which carry the well-known slogan, A pill a day keeps the zeros away. Her partner is perfecting a formula for sugar-coated tablets which guarantee to keep forever one's sunshiny disposition. You will next ascend to the 555rd floor, where the specialists, Iohnston and McCall, have respectively originated diets of eighteen futuristic apples and seven bites of dill pickle a day. As you approach the 701st story, queer sounds will doubtless be heard issu- ing from room 784. It is in this very room that the first Bullard loud speaker was made, the inventress having developed her well-known talents along that line. Her partner, Adie Ball, aids her in this great work by chortling raucously in numerous keys and pitches through the instrument. On the 856th floor you will see the renowned Haskell poise machine, which grinds out poise and charm by the hour. It being about one-thirty by that time, and since Ed will, without doubt, be anxious for his lunch, our bus will take you along Route 59, as you wend your way to the new Carlson Hotel. It is along this route that you can often see Betty Buck, world famous air' polo rider, cantering along on her iron horse, socking air balloons as she goes. Pegasus, her mechanical winged horse, is the latest and greatest Walker-Eustice invention. You will probably be held up for some time by Edie Lapham, chief air traffic cop, who has won renown through her passion for making goo-goo eyes on her skycycle at all approaching victims. If you are fortunate, you will reach the Carlson Hotel by two o'clock, where a stop of half an hour is allowed for lunch. It is on the roof garden of this hotel that Betty Archer, well-known dancer, teaches her thirteen children the Royce- more Wriggle. After lunch the air bus will proceed, stopping to refuel at the Rodgers air gas station, where is sold exclusively Caroline gas, which takes the place of Ethyl. Somewhere in the vicinity of Fifth Way, one can see and faintly hear Elizabeth Eckhart, soap-box orator on world affairs. Her latest harangue is an illustrated lecture course on How I cured my nerves. Which reminds us that Ianet Graham, who once orated from that very box, is at present touring the country delivering speeches on Perfected Baby Talk. That eight-hundred story affair on the left is the night club, the Hot S ot. Here Bee Lindley holds forth nightly with the help of Ellie Stewart, her clfiief danseuse. We have just received word that Countess von Hochten Shprickle tformerly our own Catherine Ann Baumann of Yew Norkj has invited Kay Huston to sing her famous rendition of Boop Boop a Doop before German royalty. We mention this since it was at the Hot Spot that Miss Huston gained her fame. +Pi6214't Across from the night club stands the Fifth Way Hospital, where the great Doctor' Florence Barritis specializes in enthensiogovy. Several offices in the building are given up to the laboratories of M. L. Dillon, who manufactures Dillon's Liniment for Loose-jointed Ligamentsf' In another wing of the hospital Mary Landreth gives laugh treatments to all tired business men. Miss Landreth claims that she owes all her fame to her fond husband, who endured faulty experiments for over ten years. The tall structure you see as you turn off the avenue is the Rice Theatre. Here, at any time of day, sensation seekers can see and hear Miss Vincent and Miss Shepherd, who are at present diligently rehearsing for their latest melo- drama. The trip draws to a close as you approach the harbor. The mighty bridge spanning the ocean is the amazing work of Dorothy Bard. It naturally does away with all seasickness on a European trip. It is her famous cousin, Senator Ianet Bard, who has rewritten our Constitution as her first step in reforming the world. Iust recently, from that very spot, the first Transatlantic voyage was begun by the two superseamen, Williamson and Uhlemann, in their bottomless boat. In the distance, you can just catch a glimpse of the enormous new West- northern University, where Helen Steele displays daily to admiring tlirongs of students, her well-known skill in exhibition diving into a barrel. The trip comes to this thrilling end, and the plane once again zooms back to earth. Tilsted is now leaving the air, and- May you all have sweet dreams of these thirty-two extraordinary examples of this great age. ,ZR t 5 .- Yi b 1 llll ,A M 17 ','g- Hr- ..4,i6514y...

Not emotional Freshmen nor raucous Sophomores any longer! ,How long we have looked forward to sitting in the coveted Iunior side of the assembly! How worshipfully we used to watch the awe-inspiring Iuniors of other years as they tiled to and from their ditiicult classes. Now, lo and behold, we are Iuniors! Of course, we can't get over thinking of the Freshmen as those darling little seventh formers nor can we realize that erstwhile Frosh are now important, if not dignified Sophomores-and the Seniors! Could these charming young girls be taking the places of those glorious beings of other years whom we used to worship at a distance? Ah, yes, that is true! We are no longer Freshmen. That makes all the difference! Indeed, we are old now, weighed down by cares and responsibilities galore. The vice president of the Student Government Board, the president of the Dramatics Association, and that of the Red Feather Club, business manager of The Grzlffin, board members of all sorts and kinds: all are drawn from our class!! And then there is the physics laboratory, that hallowed place of learning, into which we go with smiles and light laughter, and from which we emerge groaning with knowledge. No wonder we romp no longer as ofyoreg no wonder our spirits, once so wild and free, are now tamed down to a smoothed and polished semblance of their former selves. Why see! The Freshmen are white as sheets, and even the bold Sophomores look worried! Could we have made Iunior year sound as bad as all that? We would love to scare you, dear lower classmen, but we can't. Iunior year is the happiest year of all--so far. The duties and responsibilities only serve to make us feel gloriously self-confident and important! Our class is drawn closer to- gether than ever in the unity which all upper classes have. XVe are all older, more looked up top more trusted and confided in. Indeed, the only reason we are lured into leaving this happy year is the eagerness to possess Senior Study Hall and Senior privileges and the impatience to see if we can't imitate the splendid ex- ample that the class ahead has set us. 5104..

It is only a natural reaction, that after the hardships ofthe Freshman year, a Sophomore should consider herself entitled to a break The security of her position and the untroubled smoothness of her days, contribute towards an exaggerated ego. What was hesitancy in a Freshman becomes assurance plus in a Sophomore, and what was once a timid desire to please, becomes a flaunting self'-complacency. The very difference between Freshman and Sophomore work is the difference between romance and satire. Being a Sophomore, I am unable to trace the evolution that is experienced in becoming a Iunior. But l do know that once in a while comes a faint glimmering that we may be wrong. And I am certain, that by the end of the year, the loyalty, good sportsmanship, and earnestness of our class will have overcome the bad reputation that Sophomores, the world over, seem to enjoy. i -LORNA BEA TON -'-'rri67J4w H Uhr Griffin E112 Griffin Top Row M.

Sheehan, SludenlGovernmenl Rep1'e.ren!al1've This bicrtter of Being cr Freshlncm A Freshmanl Freshman! One who is in the rudiments of knowledge, so the dictionary says. I had always had a horror of being a Freshman. I had believed that the Freshmen were teased and tormented until they were made miserable, but l have discovered that it is not at all as I had pictured it. This being a Freshman is fun! The teachers talk to us as though we really had some common sense, and in spite ot' our humble station, our opinions are sometimes considered. Moreover, l feel we are trusted. The spirit of Upper School always makes me think ofthe words of the Three Musketeers: One for all, all for one. The Freshman learns that as a member of the student body, she must not disturb in the halls, that she must be in good order and helpful at all times. At first this is easy. For a time everyone is lenient with herg but soon she is expected to get into the pace of Upper School and to be treated as any member ofthe Commonwealth. When we came into the Upper School, in the fall, we were given a hearty welcome. The congenial spirit among the older girls was contagious. All through the year we have felt the hospitality extended by both teachers and girls, and I hope that the future Freshmen will have cause to feel as l do, when I say that being a Freshman is fun. -M.

Yes, I guess so. But listen, Bill, we've got to have some big man to lift those heavy boards for the beams. Oh! Gee, I wonder what we'll do, said Billy sitting on an old box, dis- gusted. Suddenly a twinkle came into his eye. I've got itl Of course, Dad's coming home this afternoon for a rest. He'll help us. Great, Bill! You always think of a way out of it, said Tom as the two contented pals walked off towards Bill's home. ' Betsy Anne, what do you think we'll do about the play this aft.? I've asked Granny, Aunt Molly, and Old Man jones to come but they are all doing something else. We've got to do something, or our play will be a flop. All our work for nothing. Sally, I know what we'll dog I asked lots of people, too, but they all seem to be going to the Cradle's Annual Meeting, but Dad's coming home for a rest this afternoon and I know he can enjoy it and take a rest at the same time. Hellol Mrs. Mower? Why that will be fine! Yes, jack is coming home this afternoon, I'm sure he would love to go to see the poor little darlings. I hope the Cradle makes a lot of money at this meeting. I will see you later. Good-bye. Two o'clock drew near. Mr. Sherman trudged home anticipating a peace- ful, restful afternoon after a long, hard day on the jury. Bill, Betsy Anne, and Mrs. Sherman each in his own nook was thinking what would be the best way to Lnterest him in his particular plan. The door bell rang. Mr. Sherman was at ome. Oh, hello, dearl I'm so glad you came home for a rest this afternoon. You look a bit tired, don't you? Iack, wouldn't you like to go to the Cradle's Annual Meeting today, after your rest, of course, and hear a lecture on 'How to Feed and Care for Babies?' It is at three. Well, yes, but I did want to rest a li-- That's nice, I am so glad you will go. Hey, dad, will you help me lift these boards for our club house? It won't take long, please, dadsie? . Yes, dear, later, but do let me rest half an hour, at least. Well, all right, but don't forget, dad. Mr. Sherman, very tired, went upstairs to rest. At the top of the stairs, he met his dear little daughter, Betsy Anne. Oh, Poppiel wouldn't you come to our play this afternoon? It is awfully good. We are giving it in Sally's attic, please, Daddy? Yes, yes, dear, but I must go in and do some work first. Mr. Sherman lay down to rest with the assurance from his wife that she would call him in time for the Cradle's meeting. n After lying down not more than five minutes, he heard hammering, the dropping of boards, and boys' voices calling and shrieking below his window. He tried to shut out the noise. He succeeded for a moment: then someone came bustling into his room, trying to be quiet, but not making a great success of it. Suddenly he heard a crash. What are you doing, Betsy Anne? Oh, nothing, Daddy, I'm just getting your high silk hat for the play. I'lI be gone in a minute. -4nf72j4e+- After turning over about ten times in twenty minutes, Mr. Sherman de- cided that this was not his day to rest, so got up, and went resignedly into the hall. Oh, Iack, I thought you wanted to rest? Oh, no, dear, I've decided not to do it today. After that Mr. Sherman helped Bill, went to Betsy Anne's play and Mrs. Sherman's meeting, and decided it was better to serve on the jury than to come home on a Saturday afternoon to rest. -CAROLINE BUCK, Eighth Form Honorable Mention Dreams Oh, come take a dream from my dream bag, now do!

Oh dear! sighed Algebra, I am so unhappy. Why just the other day the little girl who owns me threw me across the room and said, 'I hope you stay there, because you'll never stay with me.' Well, you're not so badly off as I am. I have ink spilled all over my face, said Latin. lust listen to what is said of me, 'Latin is a dead language, as dead as it can be. First it killed the Romans, and now it's killing me.' Something must be done about this, exclaimed Algebra, I used to be all clean and shiny, but now I'm dirty and my leaves are torn and bent. What shall we do? he moaned. After I had heard this pitiful conversation, I vowed I'd never stamp on my books again, but would always treat them with the greatest care and affection. -CAROLA KELLNER, Eighth Form ...,,f75144,.

I walked slowly along the shore, my feet making little sound on the sand, still hot from the rays ofthe sun. It had been a stifling day. As I rounded a curve in the shore, I saw a lovely sightg a golden oriole singing and swaying to and fro in the branch ofa wild lilac. With another burst of song he fluttered down to the edge ofthe lake and dipped first one wing and then the other into the clear water, now ruffled by the cool wind of evening. I held my breath and watched. But after drinking his fill, he flew ofi' into the woods as the last pink cloud faded into grey, and I was left alone in the stillness, except for the lapping of the water on the shore. -MARGARET CASE, Eight Form -'+oPf7414 ' Diagramming The sentence, says the teacher, is, Mary had a lamb, That went with her to school one day, and shook her playmates' hand. Now, lane, continued she, with an air of strict propriety, May diagram on the blackboard, this sentence for us to see. Poor Iane, with feet of lead, went stumbling onward Toward that awful place ofjudgment, the cold and dusty blackboard! The base line, says she falteringly, is put in, just here, CUhJ And on it comes the s-subiect, t-that's 'Mary,' can't you hear? An' then the separation line, and after that the verb- Here she stopped, and red in the face, looked for the offending word. Next on the line, comes the clause, 'that went to school,' used As the-oh, I've forgotten -and she looked so much abused. Go aheadl commanded the teacher, and leave that part of it out, So Iane, nearly crying, went on to the last tryout. The modifiers come next, with 'A' under 'lamb,' and 'With her' under 'went' as an adverbial phrase. I'm sure that 'her playmates' ' goes under 'hand' So now that I'm through, at attention I'll stand. So with dull ears, she heard from the teacher by the door. The icy words, Very bad, please start at the beginning once more! -RUTH OSTERMANN, Eighth Form Visions of the Past I sat on a rock overlooking a range of low mountains. The scene was busy, full of the power of machinery, but as I looked, it seemed to change. The roar- ing fall, harnessed for electricity with its power houses on either side, faded into a pleasant stream, the tinkling of falling water sounded peaceful and quiet. Where the railroad had run, beside the river, with puffing engines and banging, pmoisy cars, the rhythmic tread of an Indian pony, homeward bound, could be eard. At my left was a busy river port alive with the bustle of trade: great boats coming and going, plying their way toward the sea. Straining, laboring tugs were pulling the boats into the harbor. Slowly all this faded into a sleepy little settler's village, with a trapper's canoe floating down the stream. Now I saw the complete picture, a winding river, an Indian pony, the tiny village, and a gliding canoe. I awoke with a start and saw again the lively scene that it really was, but I knew that once, not so long ago, America was as I had dreamed it. --IRENE BUDLONG, Eighth Form ...,gi751.q...

That fairy would be the Queen of Fairyland. I suppose I'll wear out with all this explain- ing. Well, anyway, the fairies were having a grand argument. My! What a noise they were making, each trying to talk louder than the other. One fairy said, I am the rain fairy, I make all the plants grow on earth. Another fairy said, I am the sun fairy. If it were not for me, all the world would be dark. And so they went on. It would take-oh, let's see-about five books to write all they said, and besides no one would read them. So this argument went on and on. One day a man from the earth came. Why aren't you tending to your business? He added, All the children are afraid of your noise. A fairy re- torted, We'll keep on till we settle this dispute. The man reported this to the Ruler of All Things. The Ruler was disappointed. He thought the fairies were good, but instead they turned out to be bad. He ordered all the fairies to live under ground and never to show their faces among men again. That is why we never see fairies any more though we sometimes hear them. -CECILY FORREST, Sixth Form Seasons Down come the little snowflakes, Tumbling one by one, Falling in the yard and park, Then melted by the sun. When the days less chilly grow Then some grass begins to show. Mother Earth puts forth a dress, As bright a green as you could guess.

The children were cold by that time, and so they went into the house, and looked out ofthe window. What do you think they heard?

Woolly Blanket replied: Now that you have asked me that, I might as well tell you my story from beginning to end. Once I was on a little lamb. I had a fine time in those days. I climbed over hills and basked in the sunlight. My master was very kind. But one spring, to my great sorrow, I was cut off this lamb, and taken to a mill, and made into a Woolly Blanket. I went to a store and after many dusty months I was sold to little Iane's mother. That is my story. That is very interesting, Woolly, said Master Pillow. I, too, have a story. Once I was the feathers on a fat goose. I lived on a big farm for a long, long time. Then one Christmas the farmer killed the goose. I was then made into a pillow and covered with a striped coat.

In the first place, we spent our time at a civilized hotel, the Deerpath Inn at Lake Forest. But to start at the beginning: Upon arriving at the Inn, we were shown to a suite consisting of five rooms that were aptly described as knockouts. Of course, the Vic was turned on immediately, and everyone proceeded to enjoy herself. After lunch we all walked over to the Winter Club, where, to our chagrin, we discovered that there was no skating. As we were turning to go, a newspaper photographer accosted us. We all posed nicely for several pictures, and we were informed that they would be in the next Sunday Tribune. tAfter sea.rching in vain for them every Sunday since, I have lost all faith in newspapermenll From there we hiked to the other side of town to go tohoganning. We found sliding down on boards very exciting-especially when we and the boards started at different timesl That night, after a delicious dinner, we went for a bob-ride. The next morning there was skating, and at noon some of the girls left, soon to be followed by the others. So ended a perfect hike! -GERTRUDE MATTHEWS '+fPf9l14 ' Q Q ': Ullqe Q5riffi11 51112 Griffin Glee Club Officers, 1929-1930 Mrs. Kohlsaat . ..... . . 1,l'l'6L'f0l' . . . . PF8il'l.dEHf Y I . .

It is interesting to know that our Glee Club is the only chorus representing a private school which has ever participated in these concerts. In spite ofthe fact that they sang the day of the storm and all the girls were not present, they were very enthusiastically received and highly complimented by their audience. --frf92144 Siudeni' Governnmeni Board Officers, 1929-1930 lanet Bard . ....... 1Jl'6.!'l'd8l'Il Cora Kling . . .

Paine The Friendly Relations Society Several years ago, Miss Flora Cooke, of Francis Parker School, organized the Friendly Relations Society. Several ofthe private schools about Chicago tLatin, Stickney, Ferry Hall, Faulkner, and Roycemorej were asked to join this society for the promotion of friendly relation between the foreign and American students. The society used to maintain a small house on the campus of the University of Chicago. Now they are using the splendid new Harriet McCormick Meniorial Building belonging to the Y. W. C. A. for the foreign student residency. The annual dues go toward helping these young girls obtain part-time work and help them out of financial difiiculties. Three regular meetings a year are held. This year they are having a differ- ent type of meeting than heretofore. The first meeting of the year was a lunch- eon on the seventh of December at the Harriet McCormick Building. The luncheon was attended by several foreign students, each from a different country. Mrs. Ensor, of the International Youth Fellowship, spoke on international rela- tions. The foreign students each spoke a few words about the schooling in her own country. A There will be an International Garden Party in the spring instead of the usual spring meeting such as we had last year at Ferry Hall. We want the club branch at Roycemore to be one hundred per cent in membership each year, as this is truly a splendid organization. The Contact with the young foreign girls is particularly interesting to one who has never been abroad. -ELIZABETH PAINE ...,4gQ43w-- Mme. Elly Ney The Barrere Ensemble Miss Ethel Preston Rogcemore Concert Series The Roycemore Concert Series, 1929-1950, has been carried out with in- creasing interest on the part ofthe girls. For the first time the programs have featured individual artists for solo instruments. X Mme. Elly Ney, in a piano recital October 11, was our first artist. She played the great Chromatic Fantasy and Fuguef' by Bach, the Beethoven Sonata Pathetiqueup Schumann's charming Opus 15g Scenes from Childhoodng and two Liszt numbers, Benediction of God in the Solitude, and Fantasy over Hungarian Folk Melodies. Mme. Ney held us in the power of the music she so authoritatively interpreted. She is a colorful, dynamic personality, but in spite of her own vividness, she succeeds in accomplishing her great aim, which is to lead the minds of her listeners beyond the performer to the music itself. Is it pardonable pride to say that Mme. Ney liked us? This she conveyed in words of real sincerity as well as in her deeply sincere playing for us. On November 14, the Barrere Wood-wind Ensemble played an interesting program of music seldom 'heard-Mozart, Hinderith, Poldowsky, and others who have written for this combination of instruments: the flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, and French horn. Mr. Barrere contributed one solo group. His playing of the Scene from Orpheus by Gluck was a never-to-be-forgotten ex- perience of perfect artistry. Picturesque Beatrice Harrison, of England, was heard January 6 in a cello recital. She is an accomplished artist who makes a cello sing like a violin. She is eager to inspire American girls to choose the cello as their instrument for musical expression. In December we welcomed again our friends, The A Capella Choir and Dean Lutkin, of Northwestern University. Their program of Christmas carols and motettes was, as usual, a great joy. Our own Miss Ethel Preston was our artist for February. Her lecture- recital, telling of her two summers of work with the great Mme. Wanda Landowska and playing a program of beautiful music studied with Landowska, was an occasion of the most eager enjoyment. We are filled with pride that Roycemore possesses so accomplished and versatile a person as Miss Preston. Her program ollows: I, Cdu-F6l'l.B2 Wanda Landowska and her school of Zllumic ol' ilie Pam! at Saint-Leu-la-foret, Seine et Oise, France. r Pf95J r 511112 Qtiriffin The Griffin ll. Bach: Ill.

The ladies did bedeck themselves in ravishing fashion and did so impress us. Having met with our young maids, we did make way into the ballroom but dimly lighted and did exchange our greetings with the chaperons. We did take much pleasure in the mural decorations of such likeness to a garden and so blue of sky. We did observe that the band did strike to Honey and so we danced, it being very well done. We were merry till late at nite, except sauntering forth occasionally into the moon and lanternlit court. We did take leave at the hour of twelve and some did go to various places, but others of us did go home and so -FLORENCE BARRY -IANET GRAHAM -MARGARET McCALL to bed. CHAPTER VII. T he Cfd.V.Vl'C .iqe The Sophomore-Freshman Parig fWith apologies to Ionathan Swiftj To the number of females in the Upper School being usually reckoned about one hundred and twenty-five, of these I calculate there may be about seventy-five in the Sophomore and Freshman classesg from which number I subtract about thirteen who were unable to attend talthough I apprehend there could not have -+ovf99J4 ' Uhr Griffin iillqe tgriffin been so many as the party seemed well attendedjg but this being granted, there would remain sixty-two. The question therefore was, how this number should be transported and provided for? I am assured that they were all well taken care ofg that each Sophomore was given the charge of a Freshman for the evening, and that each Sophomore brought supper for herself and her Freshman. It is true, they fthe suppersj were brought in boxes, at the most not above the value of ten cents. As to my own part, having turned my thoughts for many months upon this important subject and having maturely weighed it, I came to the conclusion that it was supposed to be a suppressed desire party, for as I later found out, each girl was costumed as her secret ambition. I grant the food was good, for it was soon devoured, and the rest of the eve- ning was spent in dancing. I was most surprised to hear that they did dance for there were no gentlemen present. The Sophomores, after much delibera- tion, had composed suitable words to the tune of My Suppressed Desire which were duly sung. I am told the last event of the evening was a grand march in which all participated. Their costumes were judged by the chaperons, and prizes were awarded to Ann Timson, whose Spanish costume showed her suppressed desire, and to Ellouise Pope, dressed asa cowboy. I think it is agreed by all parties concerned that the affair was a great suc- cess' i -ISABELLA EUSTICE -CATHARINE ANN BAUMAN The Athletic Pcrrtg CWith apologies to Alexander Popel The gym, you entered by a gangway plank Presenting pass to man of highest rank. It was the S. S. Roycemore outward bound Iust for one evening to go the world 'round. Inside you found some sailors and their gals, Before the end they all would be good pals. But, oh, their identity do not shun They're all the Athletic Association. At just six bells the victuals then were served And these earned great praise which was well deserved. The new members excelled as fine servants As they were sure to see and heed our wants. After grub the orchestra began to play. What follows can be guessed without delay. The freshies with their crushes tried to dance But could they? What! in such a trance! There was one shadow hanging over some- This proved to be their initiation. Blindfolded, they were taken for a ride Up in a plane, egg heaters by their side. The motor, and a board the plane itself. The initiate then jumped off by herself, Supposedly some distance from the ground But only a mere foot it soon was found. At five bells Home Sweet Home was played, tho' trite. Three cheers for the board for giving us such a night. . -CYNTHIA WILLIAMSON -MARY LOUISE DILLON wif l 0010'- The Spectator At the Christmas Party I am always pleased when I find among the elementary institutions of learn- ing the custom of uniting for a general fare-you-well before holidays and particu- larly before the Christmas session. This has a tendency to create one moment of joy and good fellowship, the remembrance of which lurks in the back of the mind until vacation is over and work resumed once more. This practice among the younger generation might be adopted with very favorable results by larger communities. During the past few years I have made it my pleasure to visit one school before each Christmas holiday. As a result, I found myself at the doors of Roycemore this year. As I entered I was greeted by the poignant odor of the evergreens that covered the walls, and at the end of the hall I saw many young girls clad in white, holding bright red song covers. There was a hush, and from eager throats poured the appealing tones of O Come, O Come, Emmanuelf' There were more hymns and carols interspersed with poems and readings from the Scriptures. I looked about me at the audience and saw on the face of many a man of the world, a singularly peaceful expression. There is something about the Christmas season, that if we pause for a time to consider it, fills us all with an indescribable joy, a peace with God and Man: and that is the true Christmas spirit. More songs broke into my reverie-then another pause-and to the merry notes of the Wassail Song the girls formed a circle. For a moment I thought Iwas back in old England: then the circle unwound and the Christmas party was over. -GERTRUDE MATTHEWS, Tenth Form CHAPTER VIII.

Old Yorkirhire ' Senior Social Calendar Armistice Dag To a great many of us, if we can remember it at all, November 11, 1918, is just a dim memoryg a memory of flags, and bands, and general chaos which we scarcely understood. So, when we went into the gymnasium to take part in our Armistice Day assembly, it was with a feeling of honoring something which had happened long since. We came away with an entirely different attitude. After the entire school had sung two stanzas of ifmerica, Miss Ashley intro- duced the speaker, Mrs. Langworthy. She was, and is, one of the foremost women promoters of the Peace movement. Her speech touched but lightly upon war and its horrors. Her subject was peace-world peace. She told of the belief that existed until a short time ago, that war was glorious. With the sign- ing of the peace pact by the principal nations of the earth, war has become an outlaw. Mrs. Langworthy closed her speech by saying that it is not our elders, but ourselves upon whose shoulders rests the future of the world. It is we who are to keep that pack. we who will work for the day when war shall be abolished, and peace shall reign supreme. We went back to our classes with a feeling of pride that we, Roycemore girls, were to help realize the hope of world peace. -FRANCES DEMING, Ninth Form Eleanor Stewart . .

The Mask and Dirk, formerly a higher honor within the Club, has taken its place. This group has as its members only those girls actively interested in dramatics who have obtained the necessary fifteen points required. These points are acquired not only through participation in a play, but also by working on stage crew, lights, make-up, or cooperating with Miss Rice in designing costumes and scenery. The membership of The Mask and Dirk is now twenty-two, but an initia- tion of several new members, many of them Freshmen, will be held in the late spring. The Dramatic Board, which has been up to this year practically honorary, has been reduced from ten in 1928 and seven in 1929 to five in order that more responsibility may rest upon the oliicers.

The play itself offered great opportunity for characterization and was es- pecially suitable for class production because of the large cast and the distribu- tion of leads. Mrs. Perrybingle, the vivacious little wife of Iohn, the carrier, was played by Eleanor Stewart with her usual ability and charm, while Edith Lapham deserves praise for her understanding and characterization ofthe easy-going, goodhearted Iohn. Martha Vincent as Taclcleton, gave the best character presentation that has ever been given at Roycemore, and established a high standard for future players. The difficult role of Bertha, the blind girl, was presented with ease and simplicity by Katherine Shepherd. Caleb, the toymaker, as played by Mimi Schafer, was a sympathetic and lovable old man. Ianet Graham made an amusing Tilly and Betty Buck a handsome Edward. Other parts well handled were those of the Cricket by Virginia Landreth, Mrs. Fielding by Mae Bliss, and Mae Fielding by Margaret McCall. -nf109jb44- Gllpz Chritfin 'Glhe Griffin Directed by Edith Lapham Louis, a French nobleman Anne, his sister Eloise, a cousin Valsin . .

This has been done because of the increasing popularity of the one-act play during the last few years. Last year two plays chosen from those given during the winter and sprin were presented, one a fan- tasy by Yeats, The Land of Heart's Desire, am? one a study of the French Revolution, Beauty and the Iacobinf' One new offering, a comedy, For the Love of Pete, balanced the two more serious plays. The parts were taken by members of the three lower classes and many Iuniors proved their ability to participate in the Senior Play of 1950. The Bog win Will Shakespeare ...... Ann Hathaway . .

This production of Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves was a most artistic one both in respect to costumes and scenery, which carried out perfectly the oriental atmosphere. The music and action synchro- nized so well that the audience knew exactly what was happening, although no words were spoken except by that able young Story Teller, Ann Webster, who explained the events of each scene. Because it is especially difficult to characterize in a pantomime, this play required many rehearsals and particular stress on each scene: consequently, every one of the leads put over her parts with great ease. Caroline Buck most effec- tively tilted her chin and turned up the nose as Cassim, the proud and wealthy, whose pride met its just desserts, and Ali Baba, by his graceful gestures and humility, made his audience fully understand his kind and generous disposition. Rosemary Kemper, the wife of Cassim, Iune XVilson, the swaggering robber chief, and Iean Anderson, the wise and beautiful slave girl, played their parts excep- tionally well. Patty Quisenberry was so entertaining as the old Cobbler that the audience did not mind watching her perform her gruesome task of sewing up the remains of Cassim. The Thieves, Wedding Guests, and Slaves helped Miss Rice and the leads in making this the fine performance that it was.

By the light ol' his match he saw that it was one o'clock. Beyond the circle of light cast by the match, the deck stretched away dark and deserted. The little steamer made scarcely any noise as it slipped through the glassy waters. The air was hot and sultryg it boded a storm. One of two stars were left in the heavens-the great glittering stars of the Southern Cross. Stuy- vesant watched their reflection in the still water as he paced nervously up and down the deck. He could not realize that he, Iohn Stuyvesant, two weeks ago had been a wealthy broker, prominent in business and social circles. Things had happened so suddenly: the stock crash-everything except his tather's estate swept away within an hour. He recalled as through a sort of haze his going home to his bachelor apartment, his relating to his friend all the circum- stances. I have nothing let'tl he had repeated over and over in a daze. His friend had given him advice. You're on the verge ofa nervous breakdown, old many you've got to rest. You still have the Lawn-meadow estate to manage, and you can't break down now. 4.0411 1610'- Get away from everything-a long sea voyage-Australia-you'll pull through if you take it easy. - Stuvvesant had caught the first boat available from San Francisco-a small tramp steamer with few passengers. They had been out of port ten days now, and the weather had been ideal. Stuvvesant had honestly tried to rest and forgetg but his nerves-his nerves! Every slight noise made him jump. All night he would toss back and forth in an agony of sleeplessness as troubled thoughts raced through his mind. A He lighted another cigarette. I must cut this smoking, he muttered. I must be careful of my nerves. He noticed that the last stars had disappeared. A deck hand walked hurriedly by. Clouding up, rather, isn't it? he asked the man. Yeah-storm comin', I guessf' You know where we are? Somewheres about a mile or so off the coast of the Leper lslandsf' Thanks. The deck hand was gone. A thousand distorted thoughts forced themselves into Stuyvesant's racing mind. Lepers,-storm-shipwreck-on the island itselfamong the lepers . . . He shook himself savagely. Silly thoughts! He must get control of himself. Thunder rumbled nearer and nearer. A moaning wind arose and whined through the rails. Lightning flashed. People hurried by. Bad storm? Stuyvesant asked one of them. Barometer reads Typhoon. l must calm myself, Stuyvesant kept saying to himself. The happenings ofthe next two hours were as fantastic as the ones of the last two weeks had been. The rising wind and waves-screams-hoarse criesw- lightning striking nearer and nearer-striking the wireless-smoke, tire-life- boats-the steamer a great torch in the blackness-inhuman faces in the flickering light-water-choking, overpowering, submerging-then oblivion! When Stuyvesant came to, he was lying on a beach. All around him were gathered the shipwrecked crew and other passengers. lt was morning and the sun was shining brightly. Stuyvesant sat up. Where am I? he asked. On Leper Island. They live down the coast a mile or so. The captain's gone for help. Then it had come true. Lepers! All his life, Stuyvesant had dreaded this disease above all. Loathsome--terrifving-isolated from the clean members of mankind! And here he was, with nerves stretched to the breaking point, on the same island with them. Oh, the irony of it! Soon the captain came rowing around the little out-jut of land on which the shipwrecked unfortunates were stranded. Behind him came three life boats filled with rescuers. They looked like ordinary people-mostly doctors and nurses. Wlounds were bandaged, water and provisions were dealt out. Stuyvesant drank, but ate nothing. Not lepers' food! You'll have to stay with us until another steamer can pick you up, said the chief doctor of the colony, a fine-looking young Frenchman. lt's perfectly safe, we have emergency quarters. The entire company was transported back to the colony, and soon they were sitting cheerfully around their bungalows smoking and talking over their adven- ture. Stuyvesant sat apart from the rest, trying to get a grip on himself. He avril I 7144+- 'Glhe Griffin 'Gllye tbriffin had seen no real lepers yet. The doctors and nurses were still whole and sound. It was the fear of apprehension that weighed on his nerves so heavily. No telling when he might meet a man without an ear, or a nosel He started unconsciously to pace up and down in an ever-widening circle. The thoughts of the last few weeks,again raced through his brain. How trivial all his financial losses seemed in comparison with this horrible tragedy. How long would he have to stay here before . . .? Suddenly his bent head encountered human flesh. Velly solly, Sir, said a guttural voice. Stuyvesant jumped back terrified. Before him stood a man of about fiftyg at first glance he appeared to be a normal middle-aged Oriental. But Stuyvesant noted with a throb of horror that one arm hung withered and useless by the man's side, and that one ear was dead white. I-I-are you-7 he stammered hoarsely. Yes, me leper, the man said in the quiet tone ofa man to whom all hope of recovery has been denied. Solly l bumped you. He bowed and walked on. Stuyvesant stood staring after him, gazing with fascination at the useless arm and white ear. Suddenly a fit of shuddering seized him. l touched him+Oh, Heaven have mercy upon mel He turned and ran, halt' sobbing, to his bungalow. He dared say nothing to his comrades about the incident. For a week he lived in silent terror, moving in a ghastly nightmare. He knew nothing about the disease, except that it appeared in a white spot somewhere on one's body, and that it was Che thoughtj incurable. .On the morning of the sixth day upon the island, Stuyvesant had been swim- ming in the ocean. After the swim he lay down on the beach and nervously played with the pebbles glittering in the tropical sun, while he thought things over for the hundredth time. He realized that it was not good to think so much, but what could he do? Burden others with his tale? From sheer exhaustion at last he fell asleep. When he awoke it was high noon. He stretched and sat up, absent-mindedly scratching his arm. He scratched it more and more, then looked at it. ln silent horror he saw a small white spot just below the elbow. For perhaps five minutes he gazed at the tell-tale indication. Then slowly he spoke aloud to himself. I am a leper. I am unclean. Soon I will be like that man I bumped into. l can't go back home and face the world. l can't carry on my father's estate. I know it megns ruin if I don't, and worse ruin ifl do. Therefore, the best thing to do is to ie. Slowly he rose and slowly he moved toward a large banyan tree on the edge ofthe jungle. .Making a noose out ofa vine, he hooked it over a branch. Taking a stick he carefully wrote in the dust beneath the tree, l am a leper. I know what I am doing. He very deliberately climbed the tree, thrust his head through the noose and dropped . . . Hours later they found him. What a shame, said the young French doctor, a typical victim of nerves. He was half' insane-l knew he was on the verge of a breakdown. The strange part is, he added, smiling grimly at the assembled group, that you can't get leprosy unless you are constantly in Contact with a leper. He stooped to look more closely at the body-- l wonder if it was this mos- -IWARIORIE IVULLS, Eleventh Form -MU 1814+ quito bite that frightened him. Second Prize The Scissors-grinder He walks as would a mountain if it moved, Ponderous, sure, and with deliberation. His curly beard goes tumbling to his waist- Niagara in joyous dissipationg But here and there its foam is stained with brown Where wine ofthe tobacco trickles down. And like that same Niagara his voice Comes booming in a monologue incessant, Chanting the deeds that mark his long adventure Back to the time when life was at its crescent- An ancient bard at home in classic days, Now fighting crowded streets and hurried ways. But every wandering Homer must be fed, And so he'll sharpen scissors till he's dead. -GLORIA GARNETT, Eleventh Form ..,,,U19y,,. U12 Griffin miie Qgriffin Honorable MGHIIOII Success The gray waters of the Mediterranean dashed upon the shores of Sicily. The mighty god Neptune was frightfully angry on this day in 200 B. C. The Roman fleet of one hundred recently constructed quinqueremes, under the com- mand of' Duilius, was attacking the Carthaginian fleet just off the promontory of Mylae. This was the first naval engagement of the Punic Wars. The Romans, lacking goodlgfaiping, were poor sailors. Defeat seemed to them inevitable. The Carthaginians, by the clever handling of their boats, and with the aid ofa colossal stone-caster, had already sent many of the Roman quinqueremes to the bottom of the sea. Duilius paced the floor of his cabin. He was beside himself' with remorse. This was his first and, unless he could win the day, likely to be his last chance at leading a Roman army. He laughed bitterly. Slowly his face grew red with fury. The veins in his forehead bulged and with his fists clenched, he muttered, May all the gods on high curse the Senate. Such fools! How can they expect me to lead soldiers to a naval victory? Oh, what shall I do? This means my whole life to mel At that moment he was interrupted by the entrance of his lieutenant. The man saluted and addressed him: Sir, I have a plan which might enable us to meet with success today. How dare you enter my cabin, Medius, without first knocking? Then a cynical smile crept across the lips of the commander. 'Tlaiyou--you have a plan which will defeat the Carthaginians. If you are so clever, why were you not put in charge of this army? Answer that, you insolent rogue! However, continue. Tell me about your plan. I quite need to be amused. I propose, sir, that each of our boats attach to its side a drawbridge having a sharp spike at its end. As a quinguereme thus provided comes alongside a Carthaginian vessel, it will lower this bridge with such violence that the spike will lodge itself firmly in the deck of the enemy's shipg and our men will engage in a hand-to-hand battle with the Carthaginians. Our chances for victory will be much greater in this type of battle. Very well, we will try your plan. Inform the rest of the fleet immediately. 1 Four hours later the Roman fleet lay tranquilly upon the now calm waters of the Mediterranean after having completely destroyed the enemy. Duilius, by the light of a flickering candle, wrote out this report of the battle which would soon go by messenger to Rome to be read before the Assembly: My men are crude sailors. It was only by my .ingenious device, the draw- bridge, that I was able to save the day. Medlus, my lieutenant, was among those killed. Signed, Duiliusf' The eyes of Iupiter from his lofty throne marked these lines. He made a mental notation. -MARY LOUISE MORRIS, Tenth Form --wil20IN+- To Georgie From just a little tiny thing You're grown to be so big, so soon, Iust now I held you in my arms And cherished in my heart a time Of baby songs, and angry tears, Of haunting smiles and timid fears-- They fade, and as the vision clears, I see you stand, so sweet and strong.

The Loves of Lady Ursula was much more inviting and spring-like than the wars of Caesar. I curled myself ug in a deep arm chair near an open window where I could see and smell the fres ness of the spring afternoon. Beside me on a table lay a box of chocolate creams. Truly, I could not have selected a more ideal spotl I had just got to the climax of the story, the villain was about to abduct the fair Lady Ursula, while the hero, Roderick, writhed in his chain, and cursed his fate. Breathlessly I watched the story unfold. Of course, I knew Roderick would get out of those chains somehow, and rescue the poor girl, but just the same I was greatly relieved to find that the outcome was favorable and breathed again. Then followed the touching love scene that closes each dime novel. YVith languishing sighs, and su ary looks, Lady Ursula and Roderick met in the rose garden. I didn't care if Sie sighs were languishing, or if the looks were sugary, I was not a critical reader! I truly lived that last chapter with the happy lovers. And a chocolate peppermint slowly melting in my mouth, only added to my en- joyment. I was treading on air, my mind was in the clouds, and I was perfectly happyl With a terrific thud I came back to earth as I heard mother call, lean, have you done your Latin? My love castles tumbled to the ground, and lay in ruins about my feet. -IEAN PRUSSING, Tenth Form wflzllw- I 51112 tgriffin 'Cfllye fgriffin York Cathedral The old cathedral bears a sombre air, It's granite pillars stand in lofty pride.

Unfortunately, I discovered that the sessions were held in secret, and it seemed that I would have to get my knowledge from the newspapers, which do not, as a rule, depend upon facts for their information. One day as I was walking rather rapidly in a dense fog I suddenly bumped into an enormous something with terrific force. I heard a cracking of knees and so recognized this obstacle to be a man as he took a seat on the dewy pavement. He finally regained his feet and panted out his griefs to me. He was a Knight of the Bath on his way to the Naval Conference, whither he went every day to hear the discussion by climbing through a window and hiding behind the banana cart of the Italian representative. I offered him the pleasure of my company, promising not to knock him down again, and at the thought of another tumble his eyes widened with fear, his hands shook, and he accepted me as a fellow conspirator. I pushed him through the window, then climbed through myself, but when I beheld him rolling noiselessly behind the backs of learned statesmen toward the banana cart, I envied his rotundity. However, once there we were beautifully situated to hear and see almost everything. MacDonald first said something about making peace permanent, and I wondered if that meant for six months, like my permanent wave. Then a squeaky voice s uealed, We can have no peace until France destroys the last two row- boats sclie built. Iapan was squelched by Tardieu's declaring that if France destroyed her beautiful rowboats, England would have to destroy four punting poles, Italy, one gondola, and the United States, two canoes. Four nations glared at the little Iapanese, who suddenly longed for his little home midst the cherry blossoms. Stimson took the floor. I feel very hurt, he said, at any sugges- tion of the United States' giving up her canoes. Our Indian fathers used them years ago, and we couldn't think of destroying national security of such long tradition. MacDonald rose, cleared his throat prior to commencing a lengthy oration, then suddenly, by calculating the arrangement of the minute and hour hands of his watch, he estimated that it was five o'clock and dashed madly from the hall, murmuring something about tea. The other leisurely Englishmen followed close on his heels, and the idea suggested departure to the other four nations. I bade a quick farewell to my portly fellow-conspirator and managed to find my way to the street. -HARRIET TILDEN, Twelfth Form I saw a gull the other day Fly out across the blue.

People speak of the sky- line of New York. What are those towering buildings but the fulfilled dreams of inspired architects? When you see a caravan against the setting sun, don't you imagine it is laden with somebody's dreams of luxury and, perhaps, with love? When you build air castles, aren't they always far away-just on the skyline? And when you have a particularly nice dream you want to keep, don't you set it in a suitable place on your skyline, as a jeweler would set a cherished jewel? Things move across the skyline of your thoughts and as they become more important they stand out against the light with a startling clarity. A dream must have the proper setting, just the same as a picture or jewel. Your happy dreams of childhood you set against the happy, shining light of the morning sun. Your memories of moments of sorrow are set against a gray after- the-rain sky which gives promise of better things. Your dreams of things yet to come are silhouetted in a hazy way against the rising sun. Your life, which is a compound of dreams, moves across a skyline also. Does it show up with the sharpness of determination and purpose or does it cross in a continual haze of indecision? I should like my life to have the same clarity and firmness that a silhouette has against the afterglow of a brilliant sunset. -ELIZABETH PAINE, Eleventh Form -4vfl2414f+f A Medieval Christmas A boisterous wind swooped down from the cold December sky, driving before it flurries of snow, and twisting the thin spirals of blue smoke that curled up from the huts at the bottom of the hill. Two figures toiled up the snowy slope, their bodies bent against the gale, dragging behind them the Yule log, the finest pine in all the forest. They paused now and again to rest, and to look up at the castle towering above them, reaching up to touch the sky. The wind shrilled and whistled through the turrets, and the wild blasts drowned the clank of mailed feet as the guard changed on the battlements. The soldiers on duty looked longingly after their more fortunate comrades, departing through the driving snow to the kitchen and the fire. It was Christmas Eve, and cold and stormy as it might be without. Around the blazing fire within all was gay and cheery and warm-best of all, warm. The kitchen, lighted strangely by the fire in the enormous fireplace, was stifling. The hot air was laden with the smell of good things cooking, and the little pages, pop-eyed with excitement, sniffed joyfully and nudged one another. Stripped to the waist, their brown bodies shining bronze in the firelight, the cook and his assistants bent over the pots, stirring and seasoning and seasoning again. The ragged little scullery boy crouched on the hearth turning the roast on the spit, browning it to a golden crispness. Tonight at least, he too would have enough to eat. The flames leaped and curled and licked at the black pots swing- ing on the cranes above them, like hungry red tongues. ln a shadowy corner, a group of soldiers stood around the wine keg, their laughter rising above the clatter of pots and pans. In her turreted chamber, the lady of the castle sat sewing. Her chair was drawn close to the fire, for it was bitter cold, and though her cheeks were crimson in the warm glow, she shivered and drew her cloak more snugly about her. To her, this holiday was a welcome break in her dreary winter, days of sewing and embroidering until her white fingers grew too cold to hold the needle. She leaned her head against the cushions, and the firelight caught the gold of her hair, curl- ing from beneath her veil. The flames hissed and whispered to themselves, and her eyes closed-slowly. For a time she slept, a happy smile upon her lips. That evening in the great hall the rafters rang with the lau hter and gay voices of the company assembled there to celebrate the glad Tmoliday. The flambeaux in the rude sconces cast queer, flickering shadows over the men and women in their holiday finery seated at the long oaken boards. The tables fairly groaned beneath the weight of the feast. The air was heavy with the smell of roasted meats, and puddings, and whiffs of pine and balsam drifted down from the garlands of evergreens on the walls. The board had been replenished again and again, when the Baron called loudly for music. A slim, graceful figure stepped from the shadows, and stood, lute in hand, silhouetted against the flames on the hearth. About the noisy, laughing crowd he wove a spell of silence. Voices were hushed, restless hands were quiet, and when he had gone, his hands dripping with silver, the voices rose algain, not loudly, but low and gentle, still held by the spell he had woven about t em. The feast is over, and now the castle is silent, expectant, waiting. The household are kneeling in the chapel, their faces white splashes in the dim light. lt is shadowy, mysterious in the unsteady candlelight, and the tall tapers make pale halos about the bent heads. The golden images gleam strangely, and seem almost alive. There is a hush, a breathless quiet save for the low, monotonous -+041 I 25141-- Gfge Qfriffin milk Q5riffi1t chanting of the priest and the murmured responses. The pungence of incense mingles with the fresh spiciness of balsam, and the little acolytes swing their braziers sleepily. Midnight. The clear young voices of the choir burst forth in joyous song. Rising stiftly from their knees, the men and women follow them into the hall, joining with them in the carol until their voices echo from the rafters invisible in the gloom. It is Christmas Day, and as they mount the stairs, the words of their carol drift down: Peace on earth, Good will to men. -FRANCES DEMING, Ninth Form For a Pharaohfs Wife The air of the tiny clay room was heavy with the pungent scent of myrrh and ambergris, with the fragrance of attar of roses, of spikenard, and jasmine, musk and frankincense clung to the walls. The aroma of the Orient was embodied in that small space. Crosslegged on the floor sat Hassan, an old craftsman of Thebes. His wrinkled brown face was seared with the marks of many a yearg his heavy eye- brows, his beard and hair were snowy white. With his pointed nose he inhaled the vapors that arose from the small gold jar he held in his hand. A worried expression crept across his tired old face, and for the hundredth time he tried to probe the mysteries of that small jar. His hands fell in a gesture of despair as he thought over the events that had brought that priceless little fiend into his possession. Exactly twenty days ago, Hassan had been summoned before the Pharaoh, and in the presence of that reat one, had been given this same jar with its exotic contents. This perfume, wiich was intended as an offering to the great sun god, Ra, the queen wishedto possess. So Hassan had been sent for and ordered to return in three weeks' time with the jar and its duplicate. Sadly, Hassan had left the royal palace. It was true that he was the most skillful in his trade in Egypt, but who, no matter how skillful he might be, could discover the ingredients of this subtle salve? For twenty days Hassan had worked untiringly in the vain hope that he might chance upon the correct solution. But now all appeared useless. Tomorrow he must return the original perfume-Hassan dared not contemplate the outcome. He well knew the price of failure. Once more Hassan looked over the coffers of rare substances 5 once again he tried, mixing a few grains of this with a few of that. An oddly sweet incense assailed him, one of which he had never known before. He seemed singularly happy and peaceful 3 all his worries and troubles vanished. An indescribable calm took possession of him 5 he was so contented :he would sleep, and perhaps when he awakened the solution to these perplexing mysteries would await him. Two frightened servants approached the Pharaoh the next afternoon, bearing only one small jar of perfume to their lord. Your Majesty, Hassan is no more, they said. Several thousand years later a famous archaeologist discovered the entrance to one of the smaller pyramids. It was the tomb of an Egyptian queen. Her mummy case was opened and the tiny hands grasped tightly a small gold jar -GERTRUDE MATTHEWS, Tenth Form. -wPfl26144 of perfume. Another Trail Down Harney We rode up the regular tourists' trail to the top. We tied the two horses at the sign saying Leave ponies here, walked the two hundred feet past the Peak Inn to the ladder, scaled it, and climbed up to the Ranger Station on the top of Harney Peak. It was a beautiful day. East and south the hills gradually flattened out to stretches of sunlit bad lands and prairie. West of us they simply ran on into Wyoming, showing now and then a glimpse of a ranch or a town. To the north they rose higher, darker, and more rugged, culminating in the twin cone-shaped peaks of Custer and Bear Mountain. Time was flying, so we rejoined the horses. Circling to the right of the peak, we climbed a steep stony slope to a cut between two high rocks. As we reached the top of the ridge, the world was again spread before us, this time a wilderness of huge granite rocks and hills rising from dense pine and spruce. A thin trail wound slowly down the slope, hedged by trees, but now and then an opening gave us a fleeting view of the expanse of world below us. Presently we got out of the spruce into the pine country. The underbrush melted away and rocks and boulders showed their heads. We felt hungry, so when we came to a point or ledge of the hill we slipped off the horses, leaving them to graze, and sank grate- fully onto the thick carpet of pine needles and kinney-kinnick. A slight wind played thoughtfully in the pines. The sun was no longer at its zenith, and the shadowed sides of the hills below us looked black. Now and then we caught a glimpse of a tiny shining road winding among them, taking its way to the blue horizon. When we had.demolished the chicken and oranges, we rode on. At times we could see the points and faces of the grey frowning needles rising before us. They grew nearer and higher and more forbidding and impressive. We entered another spruce belt. Suddenly we were in a deep valley. On all sides of us rose pillars of granite towering high above their surrounding spruces. Their lustrous grey shone ominously against the dark rich green. A little stream came tumbling down a hill before us. Our trail climbed up its bed and wound among the tall silent needles. The trees were thinning out. We passed through a sort of gate- way, and found ourselves in a bare space shaped like the palm of your hand. Rocks, weatherbeaten and grotesque, formed a portico around it. They were sober and knowing, grey with now a tinge of yellow, watching our every move intently. Not a breath of wind stirred. Our horses' hooves fell hollowly in contrast to the oppressive silence. On the other side, our trail joined a stream again. The way was rougher and steeper, but gradually it flattened out. We came upon a meadow filled with lush grass. It was too lovely to resist. We dismounted to let the horses eat, and lay in the shadow of an aspen. Looking up, we could see the tip of Harney above the tree-tops, shining in the sun. The brook murmured softly, the aspen leaves shimmered, and not a needle was in sight. When we rode on again, it was but a short distance to the road to Sylvan Lake and home. --CORNELIA FABIAN, Eleventh Form -+Dfl27144 Uhr Qfvriffin 'Gills Eriffin M elerdramer Thomas, the tanned toreador of Texas, galloped up the mountain, pausing now and then to pierce the surrounding scenery with his eagle gaze. His eyes had a hunted, haunted lookl He was fleeing for his very life-and any moment a posse might come out from behind that spur of crags rearing in dark splendor toward the setting sunl Such is life on the free, open frontier where men are men and cowards are sheriffs. Thomas galloped on, finally reaching the top of the mountain-and a wondrous sight met his tired eyes. An Indian stood facing west with arms outflung to the sky, and he was repeating the words, All is well. Thomas felt much reassured-the posse was not following him. But maybe the Indian was an oil magnate. To make sure, Thomas glanced back at the crags, and horrorsl Puffs of dust arose and galloped in a steadily advancing line of grim men! The posse! Thomas drew back aghastl Where to hide was the vital question. He suddenly dismounted, hung the horse's reins over the praying Indian's upflung arm and dodged behind a sage bush. The posse galloped con- fidently up the mountain and on to the sage at the top. The beautiful blue-gray- purple sage bushes! One of them trembled violently. Aha-a-a-al cried the sheriff. And Thomas writhed in anguish at the bloody menace in his tones. Soon he would be but an unrecognizable pulp. He soon was. The osse, having done a good day's work and being much fatigued, hurried home in tlhe deepening dusk. The Indian repeated his convincing little phrase, All is well. Such is life on the free open frontier, where men are men, and a horse is an omnibus. -RUTH HARVEY, Eleventh Form The Wishing Ring At the bottom of my garden, Beneath the willows' screen, There is a fairy wishing ring That I alone have seen. And sometimes in midsummer, When the silver stars burn low, l come down through the flowers, All by myself, tiptoe. l know it may seem foolish To clasp your hands, like this, And kneeling quickly in the grass To make one little wish. But it's a fairy ring, you see, And 'twould be only they Who'd see me, if they ever came To grant my wish one day. -FRANCES DEMING, Ninth Form -+Ibfl2811P The Monkeg Farm At Culver City, near Los Angeles, California, is the largest and most interest- ing monkey farm in America. Last summer I spent a day at this farm, and was amazed to learn that there were forty species collected there from all parts of the world. I had always associated monkeys with unpleasant odors and filth, but here was cleanliness and order, beautiful tropical trees, a natural lake with an Island, and there were happy, chattering monkeys, everywhere. I had You- You, my tiny Oustiti, with me, and he at once attracted Miss Maner, an English actress, who performed in the Educational Films for the movies. She called the trainer to conduct us through the farm. He brought out Rough Neck and Iiggs, the two famous movie chimpanzees, and had them perform for us. Rough Neck stepped up, made a bow and shook hands, and then attended strictly to business. He walked to a cupboard, took out his rollerskates, put them on, laced his high shoes and skated joyfully about, waving to the trainer like a happy child. Then he took off his skates, and as he threw them into a corner, the trainer said, Pick them up, Rough Neck, and put them where they belong. Rough Neck walked to the corner, picked up his skates, and placed them neatly back in the cupboard. Then he rode his bicycle, careful not to run into the audience, and performed many difficult tricks with Iiggs, his dignified pal. Miss Maner then brought out Rowdy, her baby chimpanzee, dressed him in a sun-suit, and had him perform. He seemed as human as a baby, and obeyed orders more intelligently than any year-old child that I have ever seen. The pride of the farm is a snow-white monkey, the sacred monkey of India, a species which is very rare and expensive. It looked delicate and timid, but was gentle and affectionate. A few years ago a giant animal called Casey had been imported from Cape Lopez, Africa, by a Mr. Fox. The animal was a mystery, and is still a mystery. It looked like a chimpanzee, but its characteristics and size marked it as different from any other chimpanzee, and it also had gorilla characteristics. It died on the operating table, of acute appendicitis, and after its death, when an autopsy was performed, it showed the speech centers of the brain to be of remarkable development, indicating that if the animal had lived, it might have been able to speak. When I visit a zoo I never look upon the animals as mere brutesg I always think they are just a different branch of the animal kingdom to which we all belong, and perhaps some of them have greater perceptive powers than we have. A close study of animals can teach us many things. I know that many have as much sense as humans. A dog, you know, understands his master's mood as well as his order, and the masters who can understand their dogs are few indeed. -ELLOUISE POPE, Ninth Form Sometimes On a clear night I think I would like to take my soul Out of me- Cleanse it in evening dew And then Take it way off And pin it to a star To dry. -MARIORIE MILLS, Eleventh Form Uhr Q5riffin 51112 Griffin Realization To some it was only a landscape, But I stood and gazedg Never before had I seen such beauty- The trees, the hills, the August sky. I thought to myself, This is God's, placed here by Him For weary creatures who Have nothing. If ever I should Lose everything, I would still have this-' To some it was only music, But I listened, spellbound. Never before had I heard such sound Melodies-exquisite, fragile 5 Melodies-majestic, powerful. I thought to myself, God created music in man For man to set down And for man to turn to In time of trouble. If ever I should lose everything I would still have music. To some I was only praying, But I poured forth my soul- All my little troubles and hopes, All my great sorrows and joys, And I found comfort. There was a reason for everything, And that reason was-God. I thought to myself, How wonderful it is That we, mere pieces of dust, Can, even for so short a time, Be allowed by God To see His beauty, To hear His music, And to feel His power. May I, His servant, With all my heart and soul, Praise Him, forever and ever. -MARIORIE MILLS-Eleventh Form -0fl50144'- A Song for Ellen The winter sunlight shone feebly through the high casement, and fell in a pale splash upon the rush-strewn floor. The wind howled eerily through Both- well's Towers this afternoon in November, and it was gray and dismal in the great hall. The tattered dusty banners, hanging from the lofty beams in faded splendor, swayed slowly to and fro in the drafty room. Beside the broad hearth where the flames lept into the gloom, crouched the old minstrel, Allan-bane, his knotted hands clasping his harp, his eyes staring unseeingly into the fire. A small figure crept from the shadows of the doorway and tugged at his sleeve. It was Ellen, the little daughter of the castle. Allan- banel she whispered, her eyes turning feerfully toward the door. What is it, lass? he asked, smiling down into her upturned face. Allan-banel I have run away from nursel 'Tis such a lonely day! Would'st thou play for me? For a moment he mused, his fingers straying lightly across the strings. Then -then he played for her just such a story as she so often made up for herself, about a fair maiden and a prince who rescued her from great danger. She listened raptly, her eyes wide with delight. When the last note had melted into the stillness, she slipped her soft little hand into his rough one. Allan-banel Think'st thou such things will happen to me? His old eyes rested tenderly upon her eager face as she lifted it to his. May- hap, lass, 'tis more than I can say. -FRANCES DEMING, Ninth Form Lower Mississippi Shining, yellow, sulking waters, Fed by muddy marshesg Home of mammoth crocodiles And the river barges.

Useless the search, for all immortal he, And those who are immortal never die. Some years ago, a ty ical Scotchman-thrifty minister-deprived his de- scendants and the rest of tlfie world of one of the most interesting landmarks in the entire history of the drama. This he did by having the house of Wiliam Shakespeare torn down-the house in which he, the minister, lived-because of high taxes which he was to pay. During the process of the destruction, a chess board and the men used in that old English game were found between the Lnner and outer wall of the library on the ground floor of that picturesque little ouse. P Time! In the year of Our Lord 1612, during the reign of Iames the First, shortly after Shakespeare's retirement to Stratford. Scenef In the library of the house of William and Anne Shakespeare.

All four classes have come out for every sport with great en- thusiasm and have cooperated willingly at all times. The members of the Athletic Board have carried out their duties to the best of their ability. It has been the aim of the Association this year to make the girls understand what can be gained through athletics. Even though you may not be an outstanding athlete, you can experience the fun and fellowship of competition. With this idea as their basis, the heads of the different sports have worked hard and have obtained good results. A large part of this success is due to Miss Hjermstad, who has always been admired here at Roycemore, not only for her ability as a teacher, but for her own self. She is willing at any time to give her assistance to individuals or to any class. Her patience is something to marvel at, as well as her impartiality and good sportsmanship. We hope that next year's Board will have as successful a year and will experience the same personal contact that we have had with Miss Hjermstad. -wtf 13710- 'Ellyn tgriffin Davis, p, Capl.

FEATURES 31112 Griffin Preface to My Verse QApologies to Wordsworthj ' To date, the Feature Section has been aforethoughtedly filled with poetry of one sort or another. I am not a poetg decidedly, confoundedly not, yet I must write for this section. , Laboriously I search my soul. One fourline something I find. When this is extricated my cup of oetry is spilled, or maybe cracked, At any rate, with my usual and continuedp sense of modesty, rhythm, and inward feeling of self' contempt, I shall further state that this poetry has a possibility of-well, let us say, amplitude. I am, withal, a severe critic of poetry, be it good, or meritous. Some people write in superficially blank, blank verse QWyatt and Serreyj. It limps, and stut- ters or heaves. But how boring! What I seem to be trying to say, in my all too-simple style CI have stylel, is that you can be as severe a critic of excellent poetry,as you want, and still you will come to that ever-present conclusion, that my poetry is straight from the shoulder fnot round-shouldered eitherD and is contagiously simple. In the language of the school child, you might be almost inclined to ordain. , Via this Preface, a new, unmitigated viewpoint upon poetry is clearly visual- ized for the unwittingly stupid reader. This viewpoint is too subtle, too intricate too convoluted, for me to explain here. Having covered all my points, I shall not repeat them, as the custom is, but shall abruptly, and above all, simply stop.

AND NEIL A Tasty Rogcemore Recipe To compose a perfect Roycemore girl from the Senior Class is quite a difficult recipe to tackle, mostly because of all the different kinds of spicy Senior ingre- dients. Nevertheless, my recipe for a perfect Roycemore girl is first to take Ianet Bard's eyes and eyebrows, add Caroline Bullard's nose, and Fran Olmsted's mouth. By putting in Dot Bard's teeth and Elly Stewart's smile, an additional delicious flavor is obtained. Top that all off with Eckie's wavy locks, and vou have the frosting to this glorious composition. Harrie Tilden's knockout figure with Betty Archer's legs form an important part-the foundation. Of course, Betty Archer's dancing couldn't possibly be omitted from this delightful concoc- tion, nor could Mary Louise's athletic ability. To give it a final sophisticated taste, put in Betty McKay's hands and Ginger Landreth's style. Lastly, in order to give it the very thing it needs, mix in a lot of Myggz lVlcCall's personality. Put it in a well-buttered tin and cook in a moderate oven. If this recipe doesn't turn out exactly to suit your taste, try your own variations. However, it has worked wonderfully for me, and if served in large portions, makes a big hit. -MAE BLISS -+0fl55:l4 ' 'Gllpz Griffin The Chriffin Ain't It a Cumffuble Feelin, Ain't it a cumftable feelin', NVhen you're tucked in bed, all tight, To hear the pleasant patter, Of rain on the roof at night?

Strained, agonized faces were mani- fest everywhere. Beads of perspiration stood out, dominant, on the foreheads of each and every griped and tortured soul. A glance gave a glimpse of horribly misshapen faces, twisting convulsively, but the bodies were tensely motionless. One figure alone dared move. She, placed aloof and alone, squirmed and wiggled in ghastly gyrations. With one last supreme effort, she gathered together her forces and sprang high into the air. One vibrantly hoarse shriek from the multitude of pulsating, rasped throats rent the air-RAHI The cheer was over. -NEIL FABIAN -nfI5614 ' A. if 'ig ' PU5714 M QNames on Page 2051 Ulhe Cfvriffin Ulhe Griffin A Tragedg in Six Stcmzas cr la John Gilpin From a Prome drlicle in Reader'.r DQ1e.rl.

YVell, having gone myself, you see I can't say what it would be without--I think it's liable to excite the morals. This I would like to be anonymous---the name is withheld through request. It depends on the girl. I'd really have to consider it a bit to say anything more. It's a subject quite close to my heart, since I went to it myself. Have you seen any laxity in me? I don't know' it has any. Attending a girl's school has on the morals--dear, dear-I haven't time now: you'll have to ask me another time. On a girl's morals-I don't see why it should have any effect at all. It might have an effect on her poise, or make her more desirous of the society of boys, and more apt to have crushes. But this crush business can be regulated by the right sort of attitude of parents and of the teachers.

Hannibal, the great Carthaginian, has always been considered one of the mightiest figures in Ancient History. The facts as given in our text books do not seem to warrant his defeat in the second .Punic YVar. These same tacts have recently been the subject of one of our well-known playwrights, who also wondered why Hannibal lingered on the road to Rome. He says it was love, I say it was elephants. It might be well to look back on Hannibal's early training. He had been reared by his father Hamilcar tnot autocar, or kittycar, but Hamilcarl. to con- centrate on only one thought. Hannibal had sworn by all the Carthaginian gods to smear Rome into a pasty reminiscence of its former self. The difficulties of the march across the Alps with infantry, cavalry, and beasts of burden are well known. And right here occurs one of those distressing perplexities in a hard working school girl's life. For who has not learned in the days of extreme youth, that Indian elephants take easily to the carrying of burdens, but that African elephants have nasty dispositions, and are not to be trained. Now, by all geographical and historical evidence, those elephants of Hannibal's must have been African. One can only suppose that at an early day of capture, they went into a huddle, and agreed upon a temporary show of meek- ness: they accepted burdens, they answered commands, they climbed the Alps. It was almost in sight of Rome, however, that the trouble began. There the elephants' true nature came to the fore. They simply sat down and refused to move, thereby effectively blocking the road to Rome. Now, even as mighty a man as Hannibal was, cannot move a cantankerous African elephant when he does not wish to be moved. During this time, Rome had sufficient time to make ready the fortifications, without fear of attack from Hannibal, who had his hands full with unreasonable elephants. And when the smoke cleared away, it was too late. ---LOR NA BEATON Why Snakes Have No Hips 11 Tlze.1'z'.r, By 171. fl. Jlfllr, D. D. L. S. R.
