BLOTTERS Blotters, in the small sense of the word, are just pieces of material for absorbing excess ink. To me, blotters have a broader meaning. There are blotters which blot up the unnecessary part of civilization. Peni- tentiaries are one of the blotters of the civil- ized world for they take up the scum, which if left with the better part of civilization, would be smeared over the earth just as too much ink is apt to smear over paper. Homes for the aged and insane have been estab- lished so that the parasitic tendencies of such unfortunate individuals will be lessened. Orphan asylums and homes for wayward children are giving these youngsters a fair chance to become beneficial citizens of the United States. These and many more insti- tutions of mankind are blotters which are always ready to absorb unnecessary people who hinder civilization and mar its beauty. Rose Pokorny TREES To some people trees are just wooden poles, but to nature-lovers they mean much. ln Spring they are like a growing child- first the bud and then the blossom. Their tiny leaflets grow with the lirst sign of warm weather. ln Summer their blossoms are gone, but their leaves remain to give us the shade we readily seek on a hot day. In late summer, Autumn paints each leaf with varying hue, and soon what was a green- leafed tree is now a mass of colors. Then comes Jack Frost and takes what- ever leaves are left. He nips each one and leaves them there to die and fall to earth. The tree has lived another year. So we see, a tree. like a child, has its stages in life. Starting with the bud, then the blossom and then the old, withered leaf. E. Gale Harold: CWho was absent the day beforcj What did you do in Chemistry yesterday, Marion? Marion: VVc did experiments with Sul- phuric Acid. Harold: What were the results? Marion: Two holes in my dress and a headache. NATURE'S FAVORITE COLOR Nature seems to be decidedly in favor of green as her favorite color. Various shades of green make up her wardrobe. Now and then nature's garments of green are be- decked with a colorful flower, sometimes yellow, sometimes blue or white, but they all seem to blend harmoniously with green. Everywhere we look we see green: on the trees, the grass, on the lawn, but somehow we do not tire of nature's abundant use of this one color. We might call it a super- fluity of green but still if more green was present it would in no way detract from the attractiveness of nature's garb. VVhat is more beautiful than a small lake, fed by a winding little stream and surrounded by a forest of green, just green, on the trees and everywhere. Yes, green seems to have no other rival color during the summer so far as nature is concerned. VVm. Ehrbar ON DIVING FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE YEAR It is a strange feeling. standing on the board ten feet above the water, and trying to screw your courage to the sticking place. When the fateful plunge is tiually made and the black water comes rushing up to meet you, that is the time for the man of iron nerve. But when you have finally entered the water, then a fc,-ling of exhilaration and conquest seizes you. You hasten from the water, and diving again again and again, feel a spirit of superiority over it.
