Af, From the shutting mist of death, 1 And the failure of the breath, I made a battle-horn to blow Across the vale of overthrow. O hearken, love, the battle-hornl The triumph clear, the silver scornl O hearken where the echoes bring Down the grey disastrous morn Laughter and rallying! ll tx C'xn,JF , ...v I 0, .ff k x Faculty Rebecca S.

May they fully enjoy the un-presided-over study halls, victrolas at recess, and the delights of wandering desks. Un this same Iunior Class do we let fall our gorgeous mantle, glamorous to Freshmen, of running the school and The Gflzfylill, and Senior privileges. To the Eighth Form we bequeath the joys of upper school, the pledge, and basketball. To the coming First Form we lovingly dedicate our class banner. The faculty we relinquish in our death struggle to the dark unknown of future classes and future strifes. Aioreover, we lovingly bequeath Iane Hart's ability to sit still in the face of near collisions when others are driving, to Niera Galloway. The Grzffffn Board, feeling it has unduly worn down Miss Mitchellis system, lovingly dedi- cate to her this little health rebuilder tbottle of cod liver oilj. To ixirs. Preston, that she may continue to enjoy her morning ambles up to school, even though her shoes become worn out, Georgie leaves these supplements ther tennis shoesj. Ruth leaves her ability to scribble weekly billets-doux to Thacher School to Gertie Alatthews. Snooky leaves her size to Edith. Barbara leaves Dick in the safekeeping of Almyra. Ioy leaves her passion for letter writing to all those in the mail tmalej service. ixiarjorie ixiills bestows with a blessing a health card on all those attlicted with hangnails. Nlary Nlorgan leaves her shy timidity to Frances Deming. Gloria leaves her artistic ability to scribble passionate romances to Ray Pettit.

I was swinging slowly in our hammock on the porch of our winter cottage. Idly, I watched mother as she read the paper. Everything was quiet. I had almost dropped off to sleep, when I heard a far-off voice telling me something about sharks that had been seen near us, and warning me not to swim any farther out than the first post, just beyond the pier. I don't remember any more, so I must have dropped off to sleep. The next afternoon, lean and Tom came over. It was just about swimming time, and I was ready to go in. Tommy and I had always had a dispute over which of us could swim the faster. Bet'ch I can get to that second post out there faster'n you, said Tom. Bet'ch can't, I defended myself. All right, I challenge you. 0. K. So with Iean as umpire, we started. VVhen we passed the first post, we were about even. Slowly, slowly, I felt myself gaining. Tommy felt it too, for he began to pull harder than before, We were .even again, we were near the second post. I gave one last desperate pull, and-reaching the post, touched a moment before Tom. I was laughing and chafing poor Tom when I heard a sort of swish. I looked over my shoulder toward the fourth post and there I saw a fin, or something that looked astonishingly like one. moving slowly toward us. I had seen sharks before, so it immediately flashed into my mind what it was. In the same flash came mother's words, Don't go beyond the first post. Sharks! Desperately I tried to tell Tom. He caught my sense of danger and started to swim faster, though he didn't know why. We were both swimming for dear life when I heard another swish behind me, but nearer this time. It must be gaining. Heavens abovel Why hadn't I listened more carefully to what mother had said! Now I might not even get home to hear the rest of itl The first post was within a few yards, if I could only reach it in time-now only a few feetl Across the first posts, along under the water, is stretched a wire netting to protect little children from the dangers of the sea.

'Twas absent-minded, you may say, But though I think I tried my best, It was a trying day. -DORIS BROOKBY, Eighth Form The Shadow on the Trail The moon shone cold and bright on a little camp in the Rockies. Here a few tents and about half a score of covered wagons, belonging to the pioneers who slept soundly within, stood huddled together. These courageous people had braved many dangers to cross our country. Among them was a young girl, Mary Daglish, who had come from Scotland without father or mother and was making this trip with her aunt and uncle. Mary was lying awake now, in her bed, puzzling over what could have disturbed her. She heard nothing in the wagon, yet a strange inner feeling of danger warned her. She seemed to sense something coming closer and closer. Mary could hear, above the moaning of the wind in the trees, somewhere out in that great beyond, a lone coyote barking his serenade to the moon. All this thrilled her. Little shivers ran up and down her spine, but still there was that feeling of another and evil presence nearby. Now she knew she was not alone. Silently she slid out of her bed of pine needles, silently she slipped into her wrapper, silently she stepped out in the black night. The moon had slipped behind the clouds scudding across the starless sky. She whistled once and then again, a low, piercing whistle. A dog stirred uneasily and barked in his sleep. Suddenly, a flame shot up from her wagon. Indiansl she thought at once, and, gliding swiftly away in the darkness, she aroused the other members of her party. Instantly the terrible onslaught was upon them. With piercing war cries and awful whoops, the savages came. That night brought the bloodiest battle those whites had ever known. They fought bravely to the end, but it was against odds too great for them, and the next morning showed nothing but the smoldering remains of what had once been a sturdy group of pioneers. -BARBARA GOODRICH, Eighth Form 71 Seventh Form G. .Nlatthews C.

Une day on our ride, Father and l thought that we would visit an old, deserted gold mine. About forty years ago this mine had heen started, hut the fortune hunters had soon abandoned it as there was little gold to he found here. As we approached this camp, we saw a few hroken-down log cahins. Yve dismounted, entered one ot' them, and found many rusty tools, pots, and even an old rifle. Xve did not linger, hut, as it was getting dark, mounted our horses and started on a fast canter hack towards the ranch. Glancing over my shoulder for a last look, l saw a ladder leading to a cave on a higher level. Father did not want to stop, hut after much pleading he told me he would wait while I went alone. He held my horse as l climhed the ladder. l had hardly reached the top when l heard a deep, ominous growl. Desperately frightened, l almost fell at my horse's feet. By the time I had mounted, we saw a huge, hlack hear coming slowly out ofthe cave which l had tried so recklessly to enter. The next day we went hack with a rifle.

She was supposed to write a story for the school year book, so there she stood, sucking her pencil and wondering what to write. She stared out onto the street. Nothing there to inspire her-leaden sky with small white snowflakes fluttering down. She walked over to the other side of the room and looked out of the window on the garden. She saw the weathervane witch on the summerhouse-just the thing to write about! She sat down and startedg this is what she wrote: Once upon a time there was an old witch. fI'll tell you a secret about her-she was a weather- vane and lived on top of the summerhouse in a very pretty gardenlj It was almost Hallowe'en. Witches are always very bad then, so of course our witch was feeling rather like putting a spell on some one. You see, it is the only time of the year that they are allowed to do it in these modern times, so she sat patiently on her broomstick and waited for somebody to come along so that she could enchant him. Suddenly a mischievous sparrow flew by. Cheepl Cheeplu he called. The witch was furious. . I'm no! cheap! she yelled. I was bought for exactly one dollar and ninety-nine cents in Salem, Massachusetts. Cheep, cheep, sounded far away, again. Then, all was still. The next morning found a new weathercock on the top of the summerhouse that looked strangely like the impudent little sparrow. Anyway, he can always come to life again on Hallowe'en. You can well understand the joy that he finds in spending that night pursuing the witch, as she flies about in the black night, and pecking at her nose. That was the end of Paula's story and the end of mine, too. -BARBARA TERRY, Seventh Form To Tom Sawyer Tom, some boys would give their pence, lf you could come to life.

He went on out to the stable whittling a piece of mountain ash wood into the shape of a jack knife. Soon he came to the stable and started to milk Bessie, but of course a fly simply had to get on her tail, so Bessie swished her tail. Then the fly thought it too dangerous to stay, and off he went. lust then Iimmy heard a rustling in the bushes, then a jack rabbit hopped out. Iimmy quickly picked it up and took it home. He kept the jack rabbit till his father came home from the fields, and he said, The lack rabbit will be much happier in the bushes than here with us. So Iimmy let him go. He went to look for the rabbit the very next day, but he couldn't find him anywhere. Iimmy thought that he went to some better place than the bushes, and he did. -IOY PENDLETON GARRISON, Fourth Form u- The Wind The wind blew hard, The wind blew soft, The wind blew all the day.

They bought a buffet and some other things for the downstairs. The bed and cradle had no covers, so we made sheets, a mattress, some blankets, and a spread, pillows, and a bolster.

She sent another servant, but he did not come back, and finally she sent all of her servants, but none returned. Then she thought she would go herself, and so she did. She flew until she came to a village, there she saw an old woman and she said to her, Have you seen my servants? The old woman answered, Yes, I have, they have gone down the mountain. The fairy now knew that they had run away, and she would have to go back to that lonely castle. She used to talk to the servants, and they were her only friends, and now she would have to go home alone, and she was very sad. Then all at once she opened her eyes, and what do you suppose?

My cat likes to sit upstairs on our chair and look at the fish. I think he scares the fish. He slaps at the bowl, but he can't get them. Puff likes me and I like Puff. -IANE IACKMAN, Third Form 82 fi' p 1 p 79 -. L if g0Rllaf'lN', lla! A Story About a Pumpkin A little pumpkin once grew on a vine. It grew and grew until it was a great big pumpkin. It was taken to a shop. and sold, and made into a jack-o-lantern, and it had a candle init. It looked very pretty. It had big eyes and a big nose and a big mouth. That night the little girl who bought the pumpkin from the shop, put it in the window and everybody that went by the little girl's house stopped and looked at the big pumpkin. -ANN BALLINGER, Third Form The Light Bird Child: Oh birdie, gleaming on the wall, Gleaming, Gleaming, Are you coming when I call? Or am I dreaming? Mother: 'Tis the light bird, A very bright bird That is gleaming on the wall. 'Tis the light bird, A very bright bird, But it will not heed your call. -IACQUELINE WALKER, Sixth Form A Night Poem The moon is sailing in the sky, The fairies will dance by and by, The clock will strike in a little while, And the maid has polished the kitchen tile. The moon is looking at its best, And everything has gone to rest, But Tabby is looking for a mouse, He's the only one awake in the house. The fairies' party has started at last, And the big white butterfly flies very fast. Is every one happy? the Fairy Queen said, And I just snuggled down in my little white bed. -SUZANNE GREEN, Fourth Form 85 O O O Aetlvltles llramaties Griffin Staff Bed Feather Club Glee Club Student Govt.

The much-desired goal of each girl who studies dramatics is a membership in the Masque and Dirk Club, which she obtains after acquiring the necessary fifteen points by participation in a play and by working on stage crew, lights, or make-up under the enthusiastic direction of Miss Elinor Rice. Nliss Rice, herself, is deeply interested in dramatics and she seems to instill the same delight- ful interest in the girls, for they create an amazingly professional air in their productions. 87 w , V ff x EL g a I I : a lil x '- gf x' l , rm.: i I 1 ,. ,,., L , ..

'- Sc-ene from the Senior Play The Senior Play it On the evening of December 5, 1950, the Class of 1951 presented a three-act play, The Queen's Husband, under the direction of Miss Elinor Rice. This first modern play to be given at Roycemore was received with a great ovation and was considered a real success. King Eric VIII, a quiet though purposeful person, was played by Ruth Harvey, who executed a praiseworthy bit of characterization. Camilla Folds skillfully interpretated the role of the regal Queen Martha, who demanded much attention and respect from court officials. Every story, they say, has some romantic element, and so in this. Iane Hart played the delightful role of Granton, the king's secretary, and also the devoted lover of Princess Anne. Princess Anne, played by Dorothy Weston, with the help of her father, almost managed to elope with Grantong which, of course, led to an exciting episode. It proved almost fatal to her, when the queen dis- covered it, and consequently arranged an elaborate wedding between the princess and Prince William of Greck. Prince William was played by Mary ApMad0c. The prince was a sophisti- cated young gentleman of the world, who, undoubtedly, caused much fluttering in the hearts of the lovely ladies-in-waiting, played by Marjorie Mills, Gloria Garnett, Mary Allis Ball, and Cora Kling. Surely no one can forget Marian Greenlee as the blustering General Northrup, or the suave Lord Birton whom Cornelia Fabian characterized with her usual ease, nor shall we forget Dr. Fellman, the revolution leader, accompanied by Laker, an anarchist, who, amid much shooting and bombing, pleaded with the king for the cause of the people. These two characters were played by Florence Peacock and Elizabeth Paine, respectively. No one can help wondering who finally came out ahead in that good old game of checkers between the king and Phipps, whom Barbara Bullard made such a haughty creature. 89 0 4 3 if ff ix, 'C Rli i'lN', . . .. .... -.-..........--.........1 1 Spring Play, 1930 For the last three years the Masque and Dirk has presented three one-act plays in the late spring. A contest is held during the winter and spring, and the three best productions are pre- sented again as an especial honor to the girls who have participated in them. The three plays chosen were Moonshine, an amusing sketch of a Kentucky backwoodsmang The Boy Will g The Marriage Proposal, a delightful Russian comedy, and one new offering by the ever-interest- ing A. A. Milne, The Boy Comes Home. The parts were taken by members of the three lower classes. The following are the three one-act plays which were given May 15 and 16, 1950: Will Shakespeare Ann Hathaway . Giles . . Master Peele . . Mistress Shakespeare . Stepan Stepanovitch .

After a month of intensive rehearsing, the Eighth Form Play was produced. Sir Richard Serves His Queen, was the name of the production, and it had as its central theme the character of Robin Hood and his influence over the people of England in his time. The entire class participated in the play, which followed the tradition of previous lower school productions. The outstanding features of the play were the ease and poise of the cast, the extremely attractive costumes, and the scenes. Production Slqfff Elinor Rice . . . . . Direclor Ruth Harvey . . . .

As a result more girls have become eligible: so many, in fact, that it was necessary to limit the mem- bership to fifty girls. A new constitution was drawn up and the following teachers were elected to honorary membership: Miss Mitchell, Miss Hjermstad, Miss Cox, Miss Preston, and Miss Rice. There was first the initiation at the Thomas' home in Glencoe. The weather was perfect for the treasure hunt, and the luncheon and entertainment afforded by the new members were delightful. Later in the fall we had a winter sports party at Skokie, followed by a luncheon. On Lincoln's Birthday an organized hike took us through the Forest Preserve. It was a bit muddy, but everyone had a good time. Then we came back to school, where a committee made up of Iuniors and Seniors cooked the lunch, and the Freshmen washed the dishes. -MARY MORGAN, Twelfth Form 95 V Mary ApMadoc .

For a number of years, because of the fact that the Grffffn has been printed at cost by friends ,, of the school, we have been able to put aside a small sum. Throughout these years we have , hoped that some day this sum would be large enough to permit us to present to the school a portrait of Miss Ashley. This year, with the aid of the alumnae, that dream has come true. At present Miss Ashley . is sittin for her ortrait Pauline Palmer to Mrs.gPauline Falmer, and we are looking forward to the unveiling as one of the closing activities of the year. The Griffin Board cannot take all the credit for this gift to the school. A large sum was given by the alumnae, and by the girls who are still in school. The largest single donation was given by Airs. Leonard H. Wlood, a pupil of Miss Ashley's at Nlount Vernon Seminary. The frame was the gift of this year's Seni0rClass. It has been a great pleasure to Nliss Ashley's students to give this portrait, and in this way to express their affection for her and their deep appreciation for all that she has done for them. Friendly Relations llas Prosperous Your This year Roycemore had been particularly fortunate in having one of her own girls presi- dent of the Friendly Relations Club. Elizabeth Paine, as President, has been in- strumental in bringing about a more successful year than the club ever had before. The membership and the attendance have been larger than ever before. The first meeting was an international lunch- eon at Carson, Pirie, Scott's on December 6. Many foreign students were present and each brought a message of greeting from her own country. After luncheon the National College of Education presented a short Christmas play. The second meeting, February 28, was held at the National College of Education, where many of our foreign friends are attending school. There was a short play, business meeting, tea, and a tour of the building. The spring meeting was held at Ida Noyes Hall at the University of Chicago., April 25. At Christmas the Friendly Relations Society gave 35100, S50 of which was used immediately, the remainder to be used when needed. Great effort has been made this year to pro- vide more personal contact between the Ameri- can and foreign students, because we feel that world friendship will ultimately lead to world peace. 98 if., Qi 1 H H X1 ' ,lf W 't1l'xlllel'N' lf l I .. --- The BOYCEMOBE NEWVS May 15, 1951 Third Successful Concert Scrics Ends lloyccmorc Concert Scrics For our first concert we were more than fortunate to have Mr. Ernest Fowles, a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Music. He illustrated the points of his lecture, Bach and His Con- tribution to Mankind as Well as to Music, on the piano. Mr. Fowles is not only a lecturer and an author, but a charming speaker and pianist. On November 6, Mr. Stuart Wilson, the English tenor, and his accompanist, Dalies Franz, gave a very interesting program. Mr. Wilson sang My Heart Ever Faithful, by Bach: Who is Sylvia? and Hark, Hark the Lark, by Schubert, O Lovely Star and The Two Grenadiersf' by Schumann, Oh, No, Iohn, old Englishg The Toad's Court- ship, from Kentucky, and Twelve Days of Christmas, old English. Mr. ,Franz played several compositions including Bach and Scar- latti, and for his last he played Cesar Franck's Prelude, Chorale, and Fugue. This was without doubt the outstanding feature of the entire program. 72f.., -.4--. , ,ff ,,.,i ' Y F .. 3 - . ti fri ...... as ...Qi 'R -- The A Cappella Choir, under the leadership of Dean Lutkin, gave us their usual beautiful and inspiring presentation of the Christmas Carols in December. Our fourth program was extremely delightful. It was the Aguilar Lute Quartet, one of Europe's recent successes in the concert field. This celebrated Spanish quartet consists of three brothers and a sister who have played together since childhood. They play a mar- velous repertoire of ensemble pieces on that exotic Spanish instrument, the lute, an instru- ment rarely heard in this country. Their pro- grams are arranged in three parts: lst, fifteenth and sixteenth century music, 2nd, music by Bach, Mozart, and Haydn written for the lute: and lastly, modern music by De Falla, Grana- dos, Nin, and Turina written especially for this quartet. The Norfleet Trio, of New York, furnished the last program of the season. The Trio con- sisted of Miss Helen Norfleet, piano, Miss Catherine Norfleet, violin, and Mr. Leeper Norfleet, 'cello. They gave a very distinguished and spirited performance of the Brahm's Trio Opus 87 in C major. af , 8511 IT. yd: 1 -ee 3 Glllif fl -, May 15, 1931 The ll0YCEM0llE NEWS The first Athletic Party of the year was a treasure hunt, given by the Board for the entire school, on October third. The girls were divided into groups of four, two upper classmen and two lower in each group. The keynote of the afternoon was the spirit of new acquaintance. The boundaries were so laid out that the girls had about four square blocks in which to hunt. At four o'clock the first clues were given and the hunt was under way. They had been worked up very carefully by the Board and were designed to mystify us thoroughly. There were such clues as Via-red, yellow, and green, quack, quackf' We had almost given up hope when the team composed of Cora Kling, Iean Rawlins, Betty Sellery, and Marion Bard found this elusive treasure in the balcony of the Gym. We were then served an excellent dinner and music for dancing was provided. We felt that this party had done much toward further- ing new friendships. Last Chance Saloon lleopened The Last Chance Saloon saw again, for the first time in thirteen years, the glory of the Old West, when it was reopened at Roycemore gymnasium on February 20, under the manage- ment of the R. A. A. Cowboys, who, in their picturesque regalia, lent life and color to the scene. Four groups of entertainers, each with an amusing skit, were riotously cheered by the guests. The room was dotted here and there with small tables 3 at two bars there was sold a large quantity of cider ale during the evening. The hostesses, Dixie Lee and Wild Iean were the outstanding sensations of the party. The Treasure llllllt The Senior Speeches 0f IH30-1931 Mary ApMadoc .. Barbara Bullard .. Angeline Drake ..

S. broadcasting. We have the unusual privilege of broadcast- ing to you this evening the Annual Roycemore Commonwealth Prom. We have a few min- utes, before the dancing actually starts, to de- scribe the gymnasium to you. Myl It certainly looks as if there had been a lot of work done on itl The whole gym is transformed into an Ice Cave, with white icicles hanging from the ceiling, and glittering snow packed on the four walls. Along the walls at intervals are black silhouettes of skaters, skiers, and people on snow shoes. They certainly make a stunning contrast against the white. The stage has one of the most effective settings I've seen in a long timel The snow is banked right up to the footlights, and the curtains, lowered part way, are draped in white. The orchestra is playing against a sky-blue backdrop, covered with glittering silver stars. Well, I hope you have a fair idea of the scene before me, ladies and gentlemen, for now that the music has started, the dancers are arriving in crowds. The young sub-debs look particu- larly charming this evening, many are wearing the latest Paris models. There are many important people here to- night, ladies and gentlemen. I would love to describe them all, but our time is limited, so I can mention only a few of them. There's Miss Cornelia Fabian, the President of the Senior Class, smartly gowned in a pink creation of lace and satin. She is smiling her dazzling smile at all her admirers. I might say that each girl is carrying a silver dance program which offsets her dress beautifully. The flowers that I see here this evening are almost too beautiful to describe, ladies and gentlemen! Oh, there's Miss Lucy-lane Hedberg in a stunning model of black velvet. As usual, she is calm and dignified, as befits the President of the Athletic Association. And there, just now coming in the doorway, is Miss Marjorie Mills, President of the Com- monwealth. She is wearing a simple gown of ivory moire fwe know it must be a Paris modellj. She looks rather anxiously around, but seeing that everything appears to be all right, she starts to dance. Let's see what other celebrities we can see . . . Oh, yes, there:-'s Miss Martha Quisenberry, distinguished presi- dent of the Iunior Class, talking to the Sopho- more president, Miss Donna Boynton. Each looks every inch her position. Perhaps Miss Boynton is thinking of leading the Prom next Iune. And just while we are speaking of leading proms, ladies and gentlemen, the couples are forming for the grand march at this moment . . . Now they're all lined up, and the orchestra strikes up Anchors Aweighf' Can you hear the music? Doesn't it make you wish to be here, ladies and gentlemen? Oh, I can tell you it's worth coming to seel The girls fnoted for their beautyll form the inside of the hollow square, and their kaleidoscope of soft colors is flanked by a solid line of black. Miss Mills is leading it and looks rather excited fwe don't blame herlj. The Vice President of the Com- monwealth, Miss Gertrude Matthews, is be- hind her. They come down the center in fours, then in eights, then in sixteens, and at a signal, all turn and dance. The excited spectators in the balcony burst into applause. Please stand by, ladies and gentlemen, I can't talk above the clapping .... We regret to state that, owing to a limited amount of time, we are forced to sign off now. But wevleave the young people dancing merrily on, and I sincerely wish you the good fortune of being able to see this sight for yourself next year. Good night, ladies and gentlemen. This is Station W. R. S. signing off. 101 vs l , A The French Ifete- The French Fete took place Novemher 21, 1950, in the Roycemore gymnasium, which was decorated as a French village. Around the hall there were hooths where cakes, cookies, candies, and playthings were sold: a tea garden: and hook sections. A French policeman was on hand to direct newcomers. The town-crier announced the events. Balloons added color to the scene, some ot' them even floating ahout the ceiling. Sixty girls in French peasant costumes, from Alsace, Normandy, and Brittany, served tea, sold cakes and halloons, and from time to time gathered on the stairs in the corner ofthe hall to sing folk songs'-Au Clair de la Lune, L'Alouette. Polichinelle, Alalhrouck. ln the middle of the room were chairs reserved for those who wished to watch the scenes heing given on the stagef'-fa country wedding, a classroom, a picnic, and even a fashion and a Punch and Iudy show. The Fete was so successful that it was possihle to give a large sum to charityf--one hundred dollars to Arden Shore, and one hundred dollars to the Evanston charities for the fund for the unemployed, in addition to transforming the classroom ot' the Primary School into a real French home. -'JWARIAN GREl':NLl':E, Twelfth Form 102 Q' Ni A p Xi- Jr ,bomfrm-, I .

We watch the summer rain dry on the leaves, And like those leaves full many an eye is wet. The Seniors dread the end to come, although They've sworn our happy halls they'll ne'er forget. Yet unrelenting time goes swiftly on. Too soon the Ode is sung, too soon the file Of dear familiar faces passes by For the last time along that green-decked aisle. But how the spirit changesl Now the girls Are gathered chattering in the outer court. The Seniors smile and nod above their flowers. For all these last farewells, time seems too short.

Afterwards Mrs. Appleton served refreshments to the girls and their friends. On Friday afternoon, the thirteenth of March, the Glee Club sang at the Girls' Latin School in Chicago.

Ascent Sydney Carton stood at the bottom of the steps leading to the guillotine. His arms were bound behind him, and he could not brush back the hair which the wind had blown about his face. He could see the crowd surging forward to watch him. He noticed that on each face there was either an expression of sympathy or of eagerness and hatred. Those who revealed their desire to see him die amused him. Inwardly he laughed. He liked to think that so many people had some emotion for him, although it was adverse. Those who expressed pity puzzled him. He wondered why they had come if they felt that way. Somehow pity was distasteful to him. He did not like the way it made his heart beat. He looked at the people expressing avidity and smiled. Sydney Carton stood on the first of the steps leading to the guillotine. He wondered how long it would take for the ax to drop. It was a large, sharp ax. It came down swiftly. He decided it would take two seconds, maybe less, from the time the command was given until his head fell into the basket. He thought of what he was doing. .He decided that his was a far lesser sacrifice than that of those who had lived through years of torture. This was over in an instant. Others had met death in the same way. It was nothing. He smiled at the insignificance of his martyrdom. He decided that when so many people had gone through mental agony continually, and when so many had sacrificed for a lifetime everything for one thing they believed, his was only a commonplace deed. He laughed. Only two seconds, his suffering. There was no glory, no pain. There was only death. Quick death. Sydney Carton stood on the second of the steps leading to the guillotine. He thought ofhis work with Mr. Stryver. He wondered who would help with the law cases. He had liked the work. It occupied his mind. It was pleasant to have something to do. One cannot be idle and be happy. He liked Mr. Stryver. He thought that he liked him more now. Somehow he felt sorry for him. What could Stryver do alone? Stryver needed him. He liked to think that he was needed. It gave him a feeling of confidence. He remembered the little seamstress who had held his hand. She had needed him. She was brave. He admired that in her. But still she had needed him. He had felt sorry for her at that time. Then he thought nothing of it. Now, he did not like the feeling of being sorry. He tried to shake it off. Pity was a bad emotion -at such a time. Sydney Carton stood on the third of the steps leading to the guillotine. A face drifted into his mind. A voice moaned in his ears. It was the face, the voice of Lucie. He felt a slow tearing in his heart. He wondered if she would remember him. In a way he liked to think that she might. Perhaps she would only remember his silence and his habit of drinking. He hoped that she would not. He wanted her, if she remembered him at all, to think of him as a man with human emotions. Then-he hoped that the end of his life would be the beginning of a new life for her. The moaning about him increased. His heart snapped. Sydney Carton stood on the fourth of the steps leading to the guillotine. About him was silence. He could think more clearly. He wondered if he had done anything on earth to merit his living. He thought over his life. He pictured himself the drunkard. That, he realized, was a bad fault. Somehow it seemed sordid to him now. He realized that he had never held anyone's affection. He wondered why that had not bothered him before and why it did now. He decided 106 5' - fi- JY X-GRIHIN', l . that his life on earth had not been worth while. It was queer that he had taken 'the trouble to live so long. Life was a small thing after all. His life was smaller yet. He was doing more good by dying. Yes-it was better. Sydney Carton stood on the last of the steps leading to the guillotine. A weariness came over him. It was an emotional weariness. He was tired. His mind ached. He wondered about after-life. He wondered if he would find rest there. Once he had heard that one did. It would be nice, he thought. Surely God, who was omniscient, would forgive him and let him rest. He wanted to be there with God. He wanted after-life. He did not know what it was like. He could only imagine a large space filled with infinite happiness. He looked upward. Sydney Carton knelt with his head resting on the guillotine. He could hear no noise but a sweet, rushing sound in the distance. He saw nothing. Once he saw a white shadow coming toward him. But it disappeared. He could not see God, but he could feel two arms holding him tightly and a voice saying, I am the Resurrection and the Life. An immense crash. The swelling of many voices. An opening in the heavens revealing to only one the outstretched arms of Omnipotence. A complete restfulness of mind. Sydney smiled. -THEO WIN TERS, Eleventh Form Act Il, Scene Ill.

X-GRIFFIN-, s ll , For Love Whiskers was alone-all alone, and nobody loved himl They hadn't, ever since that absurd, beribboned, little French poodle had arrived-and the silly thing had been there for exactly two weeks, three days, and five hours. They all made such a fuss over him: his kinky white hair, his high, staccato barks, his bright little eyes, and his upturned nose. He, Whiskers, felt quite left out. To be sure, he was only a cross between a police dog and a collie. A cur-with long, thick, golden-brown hair standing stiff and erect on his body 9 great, overgrown feet falways in mischiefj, and short, pointed ears. He couldn't help it that he wasn't beautiful-every dog couldn't be-but at least he had brains, which was more than that ridiculous lap-dog had. Nevertheless, there must have been something wrong, because even his adored Babs didn't pay much attention to him any more, and she and he had had such fun togetherl Now, she was always fussing with that fluffy scatter-brain. Worst of all, it was Monday, a day which always made him feel mournful all over. It was dull after Sunday, when there were so many people about to romp with him, and there was that poodle always lounging around. He walked slowly and majestically down to the lake, lay there between his two pet trees, put his head sadly on his paws, and looked straight ahead-at nothing! But was it nothingl That disgusting little poodle was on the loose again! Didn't he ever mind his own business? Did he always have to follow him around? It was simply unbearable! He hoped he wasn't going to play that foolish biting game again. It was such a silly sport. so very babyish and-it hurt. It hurt to have that little white ball scratch and bite at you when you couldn't do anything to defend yourself for fear people would say you were hurting a helpless creature, smaller than yourself, who was only trying to play with you. But he wa.r going to play it, there was no doubt about it! You couldn't mistake that mad little dash he made before springing. Wearily Whiskers got up and prepared to do his best. Faster and faster flew the little white streak, nearer and nearer came the poodle-but why did the silly thing head so directly for him? Couldn't he see that the land just stopped at the top of the hill and that water took its place rather suddenly, far below his two pet trees? No, he didn't seem to, for he plunged, headlong, into the cold, deep lake. Whiskers got up disgustedly. He supposed he'd have to go in and save him. It would be expected of a gentleman-and he was a gentleman. Like a golden flash he dived into the water and struck out. It wasn't as easy as he thought it would be, The water was cold, and little currents jumped out at him and surprised him terribly when he wasn't looking. Suddenly he heard Babs' voice calling to him. That decided it. He simply had to save him-for Babsl It seemed hours before he could reach the frantically squirm- ing puppy-but he made itl He'd made it all for Babs. He grabbed the little poodle in his big jaws and then started shoreward. The currents seemed more friendly going this way, and they helped him gently to the shore. Slowly he lifted the little dog up for the excited Babs to see. Of course she would be so happy to see her poodle again she wouldn't even look at him fwhiskersj, or give him one loving pat. He tried hard not to think about it and stalked with quiet dignity toward his trees. But some one called him back. Whiskersl Whiskers! He felt Babs' soft hands caressing him. Don't go away, please don't, you're a million times nicer than any old lap-dog! Suddenly all the blood seemed to rush into Whiskers' ears, he felt warm and tingly all over! He wasn't just a lonely, forgotten dog in a big, cruel world-somebody loved him! 4-ANNE MCCALL, Ninth Form 108 f HX . iff swrilfefnx-,s W . At the Symphony Sitting there with a lazy body and mind, my eyes strayed upward. Music began and beauty beckoned, I followed. It was soft-the theme, soft and sultry, imaginative, indolent, pulsing with rhythm, as physical as a caress. It strayed on, but not endlessly. With a sudden sweep the movement gathered force, power, and a longing inexpressible. I sat tense, my blood pound- ing, the call of it in my veins, a moment of supreme ecstasy. I Ruby lips and pirate gold, Gulls and soporific skies, Clouds in shimmering transiency, Milky foam and emerald tide, Lazy droning of the breeze through the sagging, graceful rigging, These things from the waves we see, Sailing down the Silver Bank, Sailing, sailing, ever sailing to the music of the ocean, -Toward the lotus' deadening potion, Toward the land of Afternoon- Tell me, dear one, of the secret of the land of Afternoon. Whisper softly in my ear words that restless mortals hear, Calling them away forever from the oak leaf and the heather Toward the land of Afternoon. This the music of the idle, sailing in from days at sea. II Lead me out of here tonight, from the reeking, teeming city, From the filth and dust, and cinders, From the eyes of others' pity, Lead me on tonight-forever, Let me cease my wandering never, Let the oak leaf and the heather rot among those teaming millions screaming, striving, fighting, dying. Let me out, A soul is cryingl ' -RACHEL PETTIT, .Tenth Form Chicago Long before the Twentieth Century slows down for its glide into the terminal yards, the traveler realizes that Chicago is before him. Coming from the east, he has seen astonishing sand mountains, a sparkling blue lake, and has had glimpses of the great freedom of the mid- western country. 109 - I! - f 5 if 3 cl? , N-GIKIFFIN3 ll, As Chicago is approached the traveler gets broader views of the lake. If he is a stranger, and has never seen it before, he is startled at its mysterious beauty. It is far beyond his expecta- tion, it is an inland ocean of white surf and fascinating bands of color, overcircled by snowy white gulls. Suddenly, on a curve in the distance, the traveler catches a glimpse of a phantom city of towers. These towers seem to be floating on an island, with their tall spires taking their clouded color from the lake's mists. This is only a glimpse. The huge steel monster rushes through more vales and over more viaducts. It pulls into the station, the traveler alights. He soon finds himself standing before those challenging buildings. They form a row of proud, glistening warriors along the boulevard, and they face a vast park, with many acres of green lawn or ribbons of white highway. The traveler goes to the Field Museum, and standing on the marble steps, he will then realize to what a point Chicago's mighty skyscrapers have advanced. Next to the south veranda of the Art Institute, overlooking a little patch of land, where pigeons strut and flutter about, he can see the life of a modern boulevard, rich, showy, and satisfied with its gigantic walls. This city has been loved, hated, studied, and praised to its present position among the cities of the worldg but it never has failed to awaken an ardent curiosity in strangers. -LUCY-IANE HEDBERG, Twelfth Form The Star Silence fills the Clear, bright night.

The Dance At last it had comel That very evening the great event was to bel The Dance-her birth- day dancel Upstairs in his room, Harold was dressing feverishly. He was dressed, but his tie would na! look right. He had tied it ten times, at least, and finally gave up in despair. Now he was worried about his hair. It had an unfortunate trick of sticking straight out from the back of his head. After half an hour of vain attempts, he finally got it plastered flat to his noble pate. Now he was readyl But that tiel-it resembled a piece of rope. He rummaged in all the drawers of his dresser for a clean one. After completing a useless search of his whole room, he tore into his father's room and yanked open one of his father's dresser drawers. He pulled it so hard that it not only came open, but fell upside-down on the floor, spilling ties, collars, collar-buttons, and handkerchiefs everywhere. He selected a tie of proper kind from the heap, and took it downstairs to his mother. She tied it perfectly. At last he was ready! After waiting impatiently while she gave him many soon-forgotten instructions, he grabbed his hat and coat, rushed out of the house to the garage, started the car, and was olfl . . . It was the end of the sixth dance. For the last five dances he had been miserable. A well- meaning hostess had introduced him to Ellen Fant, the fatiest girl in town. She was both taller and wider than he, and stepped all over his feet, the last fault was mutual. Four times had he tried to get rid of her, but all in vain. He was growing desperate. There was a swimming pool in the garden which was quite deep at one end. . . she couldn't swim. . . At the end of the eighth dance, he thought again of the dark possibilities of the swimming pool. Anything would be better than to continue in such torture all evening. Clt was just as much torture for her as for him.j Suddenly in the intermission between the eighth and ninth dances, some one announced: The next dance will be ladies' choice. He sat on one of the chairs around the wall, relieved from all care for the moment. On one side of him sat Ioe Farnell, his deadly rival for the heart and hand of Louisa Manning, a rather pretty girl of eighteen. The girls were milling around in the center of the room, waiting for the signal to choose partners. Then the music started. Harold's favorite tune! He looked dreamily out over the dance floor. He stiffened, and his heart gave a leap of hope! Louisa was threading her way toward himl His excitement was somewhat subdued by the fact that Ellen Fant was next to her. The two girls seemed to be arguing about something. He caught the words, But I haven't danced with him all evening, and I want to, in Louisa's voice. So do I, said Ellen. Was he to dance with the girl of his dreams or the girl of his nightmares? It seemed as though it would be Louisa, because Ellen said, Well, all right, go ahead. The pair bore down upon him Cand Ioej. Louisa stopped in front of him, then turned and chose Ioe Farnell, while Harold's dances with Ellen Fant went on and on, far, far into the night. -HELEN HARVEY, Tenth Form You are the hungry call in me, The touch of burning fire.

As I walked across the bridge spanning this river, for the first time I saw, really saw, the fascinating sight of buildings, stars, sky, lights, and water, all blended into a Chicago night. I felt the city's great power, and its conscious pride in its beauty. In all this power I sensed something indefinable, something mysterious. Standing straight I took a deep, deep breath from the city's mouth, hoping to gain strength from its great strength. Suddenly I felt the presence of someone else. At a short distance the dim figure of a man could be seen leaning against the railing of the bridge. Somehow, his faint outline against the thin fabric of the bridge's structure lent a foreboding aspect to the scene. What thoughts was he contemplating so silently? I wondered. From where I stood I could discern only a few things about him. His hat was slightly tipped, between his fingers a cigarette glowed: a spark fluttered off of it now and then, and was soon swallowed by the blackness. His attitude suggested dejec- tion. I became almost terrified. Would not these surroundings tempt a man to anything? I was aware of how perfectly he completed the picture of black mystery. Perhaps he did not feel the city's power, but was sunk only in its mystery. My glance sped to the stars for assurance. They were almost completely covered by a strange, grayish hue. The buildings, so strong before, were now menacing, and seemed about to topple over to crush the world, to crush me. Even many of the glittering lights seemed to have flickered out. I did not dare to look at the river. Nonchalantly, he turned and faced me, flicking his cigarette into the water. My amazed ears signaled to my befuddled brain, and I knew he was speaking to me. Say, stranger, could you spare a cigarette? were his lightly uttered words. Almost at once he moved on, surprised, and a little uneasy at my stare of astonishment. For a moment I stood there, a trifle piqued. Absently I noted that the night had resumed its feeling of strength, the mystery having almost entirely vanished with the melodrama I had ex- pected of life. Quietly, but surely, the night had woven its spell upon meg looking up I saw plainly the slow, impudent wink of one small star. -FLORENCE PEACOCK, Twelfth Form 115 ii- ss, ? fa- .. ,Mo or-onlrrm-, H Two Shades of Blue Sometimes I was blue Even when I knew You loved me.

My prayers were said to mother, a black shadow whom I could not see, and I lay very still in my white bed. I loved night-it was so deep and purple, and it was thrilling to think that fantastic shadows lurked in pooly corners. Sometimes when I looked at the pale, cold moon, I was afraid 5 but then I hug ed my stuffed dog tighter, and snuggled deep in the puffy pillows. I was soon asleep, for I hacI no cares then. Night was just a big, wonderful world where one could laugh or cry unseen. Now I have wandered far from home. I have seen life and darkness, where men stand gazing with weary eyes into the black that tears their souls, or huddle in hushed groups beneath a sheltering bridge. Gray dawn seems endless, and the world so terrible, so cruel. But waitl There are nights when dark is dewy and delicious, nights when stars hang like bright jewels not made for green money to buyp nights when the moon looms silver through slender trees, and a dreamy breeze blows far away.

I was very comfortable alone there on the window-seat, shut in by velvet curtains on one hand, and a world of snowflakes on the other. I was contented, just sitting quietly, watching snowflakes, snowflakes-soon I was asleep, and dreaming. I was watching the snowflakes, millions of them, falling- Feathers-I mused-yes, feathers, white soft. Some of them fell gently on my pane. How beautiful they were, white and glittering. What lovely patterns: stars, and sparkling diadems. Intricate, like lace-and feathers. Dainty, dancing, gay little people! Yes, that was it, little beautiful people-snow fairies! I could see them quite clearly now. How ethereal they were, yet their little bodies were perfect. How gaily they were dancing, so daintily, so gracefully- Suddenly She stood beside me, beautiful, beautiful, lovelier than all the rest. How that flimsy whiteness that was her dress fluttered about her slim little body, mellowing it to a silver softness! And her face! My throat felt hot and dry: she was so beautiful-AI could not swallow-those eyes grey and blue, like moonlight through water, so clear. I reached out to caress the spun silk of her hair. With the tip of my finger I touched it, but I was only conscious of a silver soft- ness about my fingertip, no sense of contact at all. I felt I must stop looking at her, or my heart would burst its bounds. Then my mind was still: she had spoken, yet I heard no sound. I was conscious only of an essence like the spirit of music. The gentle chime of bluebells---I had never heard a bluebell chime-the melody of a million raindrops-I had never heard a raindrop sing- a chorus of all the stars in heaven-yet' the stars are mute. My heart throbbed with gladness, and, in mv uncontrollable joy, I swept her up, and would have kissed her lovely lips, but they cried out in warning. And then I realized. My hot embrace would have been fatal to the creature of the snow-and she had vanished. Gone-gone! Tears of grief blinded my eyes. I awoke, wondering at the stillness. Suddenly I remembered and looked down into my hand. There, where it had probably drifted in from outside, I knew not how, lay a beautiful crystal promise, radiant, perfect-a snowflake. -ROSEMARY KEMPER, Ninth Form Fog Fog is a scarf, A light chiffon scarf, carelessly thrown about The shoulders of Earth. -FRANCES HANCHETT, Tenth Form ll6 3 3' .L l ,-c.luf+lN, r ii .

His head burned, his hands and feet were cold 5 his thoughts were like live things in his brain. Zeus! Why wouldn't Alexander turn back before it was too late? It seemed as though his thirst for power and adventure could never be quenched-his desires never satisfied. The constant dip, dip, swish, swish of the oars was maddening! The river was black and as shiny as a serpent. Moss hung down low 3 vines and the foliage of the trees dipped into the scum and slime. Not a star penetrated the dome of that God-forsaken place 5 only the ghostly, feeble glare of the lamps as they flickered feverishly on the prows of the frail boats gave any light, and the eerie glimmer seemed to magnify everything, increasing it in its horribleness. A disgusting odor of decaying animal matter, the stifling, smothering heat, the blackness, blackness, blackness, the endless swamps infested with deadly reptiles and fevers-brackish, fetid drinking water, and rotten food-their comrades torn limb from limb by savage beasts, slowly scrunched to death in the coils of deadly snakes, smothered to death in quagmire. N o wonder the men were going insane! Demylus wanted to scream-to break that maddening silence, that continued dip, dip, swish, swish of the oars. Ever before him appeared the face of a child, his child, his own little son-a child with large, dark, laughing eyes and the beautiful, white face of his wife. She was holding little Lysias in her arms and trying to smile while tears streamed down her cheeks-he was leaving them-perhaps forever, he was going into a strange, unexplored land. It was these faces that haunted him. A cold sweat burst forth on his forehead and he clenched his fists-he's stick, yes, he'd follow his leader as long as he had waiting for him such blessed property! He felt queer and weak all over, and when he came to, the boats were being pulled up on a marshy island in the middle of the Indus, where the soldiers would spend the remainder of the night. As Demylus crawled into his wet tent, he thought of Alexander-now no longer as a con- queror only out to grasp new lands, but as a leader and a comrade. He recalled how at their last scanty meal Alexander had shared with his men the rotten food, how he had shared their hgrdshgas with them during the entire campaign. Alexander was a man-a leader, and one to be a mire . Suddenly a ghostly shriek rent the dead air. Demylus started, but remembered that it was just another poor devil going mad, stark, raving mad. The depression of this place was enough to drive anyone crazy-they were only a band of half-starved, half-naked men, delirious with fevers and leprosy, following one man, one leader, exploring to send back scientific notes to Greece and seeking new lands to add to the laurels of their country-the idea seemed ridiculous, incredible. Demylus rubbed his hands together thoughtfully. Suddenly, he began to feel one hand carefully, very carefully. May all the gods in heaven help me, he whispered hoarsely. l've got it, l've got it!- leprosy, leprosy! Never again will l see my little Lysias or my beautiful Doris. Sobs shook his wasted frame and he dug his nails into his palms till blood showed. I wouldn't want you to see me with this dreadful thing. Oh, Lysias! Oh, Doris! lf l could but see you once before l die. If I could but drag myself home to Greece, across the desert and through the hardships l'd have to face! If l could but have one glimpse of your faces and+Greece. Months rolled by. Alexander and his army turned northwestward and the hearts of his surviving, exhausted men, grew lighter. Dragging himself through each day of misery and torture, following the army, an outcast, feeding on the scraps, Demylus struggled on-only the vision of Lysias and Doris in his mind. The leprosy and he were running a close, close race. Suddenly a violent, excruciating pain knifed his heart, and in his misery he called for his general. The soldiers passed by, not heeding the calls of the outcast. In desperation, he placed himself in front of a guard, beseeching him to bring Alexander. Out of my way, unclean one! sneered the guard, Bring Alexander here? What thought has he for you? Tell him Demylus would speak with him. 117 fr , I 73- fr X F I I g0RlHIN', li Demylus-Demylusl Immediately, sir, and many pardonsln Alexander came riding back, amazed to hear that his old friend was asking for him. Why Demylus, youilu he whispered, when he realized that the wasted man who stood before him was the once powerful, healthy young comrade of his marches. Yes, Alexander, I--. I know you have thought me dead since the battle of Arbela, and I would a thousand times rather have you still believe me so, than to see me rotting of leprosy .... I know I'm going fast, now. l've tried to get back to see my wife, my son-and Greece, just once again. He winced with pain, but smiled faintly, Alexander, do me one last and great favor. Tell Doris I died not of this horrible, cowardly disease, but tell her I died in battle following the noblest leader ever followed, with my face toward Greece and my heart with her and Lysiasl -IANE MCINTOSH, Tenth Form Silence Sometimes when I hear A piece of music, Or see a lovely thing, I feel something Strange within me: Questioning, a little wondering, It stirs my heart To poignant longings, To my mind it brings A thousand memories Only half recalled, And fills my soul with Thoughts I can't explain, And would not if I could. Silence, better far than words, Unfolds to me the lan And reason for all being. -FLORENCE PEACOCK. Twelfth Form Resignation And if they take you from me, what of that? Why I will go on living as before, And you will go on your way, and we'll only Sense each other through a bolted door. So if they take you from me, let them have The thing I live for. Let them give me sorrow. They cannot steal from me my yesterday, So if they care to, let them have tomorrow. -THEO WINTERS, Eleventh Form Baby Deer The sun was just rising between the peaks of the Black Hills. The sky had an angry tinge to it the color of cat's eyes, shading into a deep ocean blue. In a tiny wooden shack in the valley, Nels Sorenson and his wife Gusta were bustling around. Gusta was very ornery this morning. She hated to get up and get breakfast in the dusk. 118 4 9 , NN X- Q 1 ii- -lf. s -g0RlllIN-, ll. She rattled the pans un leasantly as she thought of the hardships she was bearing in the wilder- ness, of the fun she had liad in Stockholm before her marriage. Her husband called her to the door. You come here, Gusta, and see what the night has brought to us! Nels cried, as he looked out on the clean, fresh snow spread protectingly over the hills like a blanket. Stop your foolish talk, Gusta retorted. Soon I go back to Stockholm. I got no clothes out here in this country. I go back where I have some fun. All right, go. Nels walked out of the little home slamming the door as he went. He trudged along the tiny road up the hill. He walked slowly, hampered by the snow which had fallen in the night. Here, he saw a chipmunk, gathering little nuts from his summer store- rooms. There, he saw a raccoon sunning himself in the snow for a few minutes. He was now al- most to the timberline. Most of the trees were bare as if they had been singed by a forest fire. A few evergreens stood out among them, bright and green. Suddenly he heard a shrill bleating and he looked around for the direction from which the sound came, but could not locate it. He went over to a group of spruce trees to wait for the cry again. There, by the trees, lying in the snow, was a tiny, new-born fawn. His eyes looked up at Nels with the trust which young children have for those who help them. Nels stooped beside the fawn. Its front leg was broken. He picked up the little thing and wrapped it in his windbreaker. He rose and started slowly toward his home. The sun was out at last in its full glory. The air was clear and Nels was happy with the little creature who trusted him. He put his hand on the fawn's head. The fawn looked up at him and licked his hand. - He turned up the path to the door of his home. Gusta opened the door. What you got there? she asked. It's hurt, Gustag it's a baby deer. You give it to meg men don't know how to take care of little things. Yes, Gusta, you fix its leg. What shall we call it? We decide that later-after I fix its leg. Nels, she said then, we can have it for a pet in the summer. It will be company for us. Yes, Gusta, Nels replied serenely. ' -ELLA JEAN PORTER, Tenth Form Perfect Peace! CPerfeet llrivel 29 Ahal,' said Algernon Smythe, now I shall be able to write! I shall think, and think beautiful thoughts! Ahal Thoughts began to drip like molten silver through his brain. He sighed in'ecstasy and seized his pencil. The fire crackled gleefully and the wind soughed moaningly through the pines outside the windows. The early morning sunshine danced on the copper footscraper beside the door. Perfect peace! Perfect quiet! And then the beautiful golden bubble of silence was shattered, broken, crushed to dust. A shrill shriek rang out from the mountainside which stretched above the cabin to the snowy crags at the peak. Algernon started up from his chair, nerves quivering in an anguish of disturbed poetic emotion. Why in the name of the Muse did he have to be disturbed just when he was doing something fine, something noble, and worthy of being handed down to poserity? Again the cry swept down the mountain. Algy sighed, picked up his gun, and started to the rescue. Perhaps some fair damsel was being harassed by a wild beast. He pictured her shrinking daintily in terror against the rock, the huge, fiery-eyed, dewy-jawed creature licking his chops in anticipation of the tender meat. Then he, Algernon Tewkesbury Smythe IV, would appear on the scene. Ah, he saw himself, tall, strong, his brows bent in the 119 . ,if ' - .1 - 0 ua r + I 0, ii . manly effort to restrain himself from grasping the animal in his bare hands and hurling it over the precipice instead of killing it by the more civilized method of the gun. He rounded a sharp battlement of stone jutting out several hundred feet from the mountainside. There on a flat slab of granite stood a huge, ragged, unkempt man, great beetling brows surmounting somber eyes blazing with unquenchable fire. He was .clothed in a single torn skin of some animal which Algy had neither the time nor the inclination to notice. The wild man shook his hair out of his eyes. Algy took a backward step, the primitive one glared harder and harder, worming his gaze into the inmost crannies of Algy's soul until the poor poet could stand it no longer. With a hopeless yelp, he turned and bounded down the slope, his gun clattering on rocks behind him. The wild man looked after him in amazement and then burst into laughter. Heyl he shouted, Hey, Dan! A clean shaven face topped by a soft felt hat showed itself momentarily over the cliff. What's the matter down there? Who was that you scared out of a year's growth? If you don't snap out of it we'll have to put somebody else in this scene. This is the third time we've had to shoot it. Now come on, you bold bad brute, earn your pay! The actor, duly squelched, began all over again. Algy reached the cabin in a fever and cowered till eventide by the fire, glancing now and then with fearful eyes at the locked and bolted door. But the next morning he had forgotten all about it and was again thinking beautiful thoughts, which dripped through his mind like molten brass alloyed with tin. FRUTH HARVEY, Twelfth Form The Moon The moon peeping out of his lattice work, Laughed softly at the sky's deep murk. He knew that soon the earth would be More radiant than the southern sea, On a crystalline summer morning. -SUSAN IANE TIETGENS, Eleventh Form Bill Startled by the bang ofa door and the scuftling of heavily shod feet, I looked up to behold my small brother standing in the doorway. In football pants, padded shoulder guards, cleats, and an oversized helmet, with a football under his arm, and a smudge of mud diagonally across his face, he represented the miniature of a nineteen forty-four football hero. We licked 'em, sis! was his hearty greeting. And well they might with such a fighter as he on their team. Bill has the reputation of being the best third-grade fighter, and even several fourth graders are in great awe of his ability in that line. To be the only boy in a family of six children is Bill's greatest handicap. He is a firmly built little youngster with his father's disposition and his mother's smile, and it is said that he has all the looks of the family. It is not strange that he attracts attention, for he has a certain winning way that has gained for him many masculine sympathizers and feminine admirers. Perhaps it's his indifference: perhaps it's his smile. He is not spoiled: quite to the contrary, he has spoiled us, for after knowing Bill, any other eight-year-older who comes our way seems to be merely a child, only a boy in the making. -FRANCES HANCHETT, Tenth Form 120 if Qx 1 3' Ll!

Ioan threw her books and coat on the hallchair and ran up, two stairs at a time, to burst in upon her mother busily writing. Hello, Momie, are you all right? Have a nice luncheon? Say, this candy is awfully good, isn't it? Wish we'd have Valentine's Day once a week. Any mail? Are you sure? It's funny I didn't hear from Cy -let alone Ned. Wonder what he's doing now-probably on one of those old camping trips. How was school today, Ioan? Did you hear any more about Ann? They say she's about the same, but that it just takes time-doubt if she'll be back for at least three weeks. School was just the same-nothing special. lane added a few more gory details to liven up history a bit-French was kind of fun-just a test in algebra. Loie rode up to May's with me at one-thirty.

Oh, I don't know. People have changed-changed terribly since you were a girl, haven't they? 121 fa- fi. ill- M , . gOR!H'lN', ll , Yes, Ioan, they have. But I think lots of it's artificial. Underneath I'll wager they are as disgusted with what goes on before them as we would have been. Ma be so. Anyhow, I wish I could believe it. I shouldn't talk this way, but I do get so tired of the girls' conversation. They always seem to be talking some poor girl over. I don't suppose they mean half they say, they just couldn'tg besides, I like every one of them. Ioan, don't take them so seriously. Remember, never judge from outward appearances or upon someone else's say-so. That's half the battle! Momie dear, what would I do without you? If I didn't have you, I can see myself-blue from morning 'til night over one thing and another. 'Member what Disreali said, 'Life is too short to be little'? He was certainly right and especially when it comes to friendship. I'm afraid we're always looking for one's faults rather than for one's virtues. Why don't you try the other way, Ioan, and see if you're right? Wait a minute, Momie, there goes the telephone. Hello, yes this is Ioan. Who? Katherine, oh, hello! Why, I'm not sure-just a minute, I'll have to see. It's Katherine. I don't want to go with her, and besides she's such an old- Suddenly Ioan began to laugh. Mother, I nearly forgot your idea.

It had rained that morning, and all afternoon a scorching Iuly sun had blazed down on a stuffy, steaming earth. But now, just after sunset, came cool relief. I lay down on the fresh grass, and stared through elm branches at a scrubbed and shining sky. All the world seemed bejeweled: the emerald leaves set in elaborate filigree above, the house of ivory with gold and sapphire windows, the molten ruby splashed across the Skokie-I must have found Aladdin's garden! It's such fun to imagine! The evening star, which would glitter like a diamond later on, now shone softly like a pearl. If I were very small, and could crawl inside a polished aquamarine set in brilliant gold, it would be like this.

Track, 1930 This spring the weatherman did not seem to favor the Roycemore athletes the day on which they were to demonstrate their skill in the annual track meet, called Field Day, for he filled the sky with dark clouds and sent rain pouring down to the earth in torrents. However, it was the weatherman himself who was fooled for, though the actual competition was impossible, the highly decorated booths were placed in the gymnasium and the usual merriment took place. Be- cause of the rain it was necessary to figure the points from the chart kept during the track season, instead of from the competition of the day as was done in former years.

Although our first team was leading in the half, we were defeated 55-25. The Roycemore second team, however, managed a slim victory 28-26. Une month later the squad went to Chicago to play against The Faulkner School. VVe appreciated the fact that it was a great privilege to be allowed to play another outside game and made the most of the opportunity by winning 58-56. Both teams played fine basketball and the game was a real thriller, Roycemore being five points behind at the half. ' 154 sf- 3. ,-onnrm-, N .

The Freshmen were the most careful about eating between meals, taking baths, and sleeping regularly. As a result, their class has the rosiest cheeks and the brightest eyes of any in the school. As for the upper classes, several of the members are outstandingly healthy fwe mention no namesjg but it is to be observed that comparatively few are suffering from tuberculosis, house- maid's knee, or other maladies. In conclusion may we say that aside from wishing the health-card upholders long life free from diseases, we also hope they get the much-needed athletic points they so richly deserve for keeping the rules.

The trophy, il Palio, is the great silken banner for which the race is named. On the day of the race, contestants, preceded by their standard bearers, enter the ring, the famous Main Square of Siena, and march to their assigned places prepared for the oncoming race. Though our Roycemore Palio is a gymnasium meet, the idea has been taken from the Palio held annually in Siena. The opening march of the standard bearers and contestants corresponds to the parade in the Main Square in the Italian Palio. Our trophy is also a silken banner, how- ever, it is awarded not only for work on the day of the Palio, but also for what the classes have accomplished throughout the winter season.

Notwithstanding the fact, my dear young ladies, that this is an institution of learning, in which you are supposed to root facts out of the hard and sterile soil of a Latin grammar or a physics book, I am going to bring down upon myself the wrath of Teachers' Heaven and ask you to listen to me, to turn your glazed eyes from cruel toil, and hark! You doubtless know that in every glass of water you drink there are millions and millions of teeny fmuch smaller than tinyj animals. But you do not see, taste, or hear them. Water would probably not be water if not full of aforesaid teenies. When you stop to think about it fthinking is that somewhat rusty process, encouraged by Latin and Mathj, scarcely anything exists that is not made up of tiny parts. This excludes all scientific explanations of matter, etc. Every thought is made up of many impressions, which, when pondered, attain a certain unity and coherence, and are capable of being expressed as one thought. Every idea is the result of sundry forces and reactions, subtle and otherwise. Behind all stories is a thought Calthough some of them seem to have lost their point in a labyrinth of clever wordsj. Each book is made of many connected incidents. A magazine is formed of fundamentally similar articles. For instance, in the Nalional Geographic, would you expect to find an article on the possible merger between General Electric and Westinghouse Cmerely an illustrationj, or in the magazine Amin, an essay on the advantages of Daylight Saving Time? And now I am arriving at a conclusion. The material in the Griffin expresses the thoughts, ideas, and experiences of the contributors. There are many, and their ideas and thoughts are sometimes original, their experiences vary. The Grdyffin is a finished book. Each article in it is a definite part of it 5 some of them flutter and catch the light as leaves do on the branches of trees, others have a soft bark-like sheen. However, furthermore, nevertheless and but!-each section contains contributions of a like nature, advertisements refraining from the literary section, Lower School doing its best not to become mixed with the Senior pictures. What a rather dull and useless book we'd have if things were just thrown hit-or-miss on the page, regardless of sequence and typing! Ah, verily, my friends, books do not grow on bushes overnight. They are the culmination of the dreams, and unceasing vigilance and ardor on the part of many people-contributors, editors, printers fwe might say sprintersj, advertisers, photographers, collectors, and thinkers, all sorts and sizes. Hence-our Griffin! Gossip, 1900 Hello!-Oh yes, how do you do? How nice it is to hear from you.- Not really! Why, my dear, you know I never should have thought it so. Has she eloped?-No? Well, let's see. She smokes! Alas! How can it be? You say I'm wrong, well, then she drinks! I wonder what her family thinks.- I'm wrong again? Oh, now I know, She's plucked too much from one eyebrow! -KATHERINE BROTHERS, Eleventh Form 140 iq ,es -il - L, ,,.i Q 'I ,wizar- ll vi fi xxx., ,, 3 l 1 The Griifin Board This is the Griffin Board at work, They are never inclined to shirk, They read and check, call and heck, Create order out of murk. ,1 W'hat a Rlontll!

Let's walk perhaps in a golden field: perhaps in the woods at the feet of many queens, where their stolen gems lie writhing on the still warm earth. Or shall it be on a dusty road where many have been blinded by artificial clouds? A heavy rain descends to comfort us. Let 't - ' ' ' ' ' 1 pour on your face, it revn es a certain strength. Things look hetter now!

There's Dowey, she's the class backbone, And Mera, whose sweet music tone Miz Kohlsaat has developed clear, To suit the strains of Whoops, my dear! Now Martha, our fair president, All year a gracious tone has lent, To make us walk the narrow path Of good behavior-and she hath! E. Grulee, she's a good old scout, As is Prussin without doubt, And Gertie, witi her charmin smile, Which lures us all to stop a wiile. Then she who has class spirit rare, Mary Louise has done her share To keep us up and at it all, Glee Club, hoc--key, and basketball. For downright fun there's Miralotte, She simply bubbles over.-What? You say she's quiet? Say not sol She's just full up of pep, you know. There's Edith with her fiddle sweet, And Susie with beaux at her feet, And Lorna who writes like a whiz, And one whom we all love, called Liz, We've payed our dues, we've sung our songs, We've studied hard, and done our wrongs, We're full of mischief, so we're told, And sometimes we are just plain bold. But take us all in all, you see, We're not so bad, nor mean to be. So troublesome as we oft' are, For Roycemore is our happy star. -KATHERINE BROTHERS, Eleventh Form V1'qq1'l: Aeneas went Io the ship hy the temple for his son.

The sickly glimmer of the street lamps flickered and went out. The sleeping city was still wrapped in gloom, impenetrable and forbidding. The house of Cal Sapone, notorious gangster, was dark except for a tiny light in the upper story. A man crept up the walk to the back of Sapone's house. He muttered something unintelligible as he came under the protecting shadow of the porch. Smiling grimly to himself, he turned, put something on the bottom step, and walked swiftly down the walk. A cat screamed and all was silent. He climbed into his big white car and drove away. -It was the milkman delivering the baby's milk. -ISABELLE TENNANT, Tenth Form Iloycemorally Speaking To reminisce Is oft amiss. When dirty cracks Fly round like thisl but- Leave it to Hoovers, They never fail, When dirt's in the air They get out the pail! And then there is Bullard, Her man she calls slick, But take it from us He's only a Dickl We work and we work On physics all day. And here we were told It was but Child's play!

Oh, by the way, I saw another friend of ours just a few days ago--Audrey. She was in the most AWFUL hurry and Bobby was with her. Of course I wouldn't say ANYTHING against her, but she always looks so messy, don't you think? I simply DESPISE cats, but I wish she'd try to be a little neater. I talked to Mary Morgan not long ago.

As thus interpreted the word has be- come an integral part of the L-M-C threefold creed of Proteciion and Service with Saw'ng.r. L-M-C Service is diversified in character and nationwide in extent. It ranges from prompt attention to the difficulties of an Ohio tourist who has become involved in an automobile accident in California, to a comprehensive survey of the safety problems of a gigantic New England industrial plant by trained safety engineers and the development of a systematic program for safeguarding the thousands of workers employed. L-M-C Service is rendered through an organization comprehensive in scope and un- ceasing in activity. This organization functions with equal alacrity and equal efficiency for every policyholder, large and small alike. Founded upon Service, L-M-C has flourished and grown through Service. With Service it will continue to build for the future. LUMBERMENS MUTUAL CASUALTY COMPANY James S.
