28 THE CHIMES Willie walked down to meet me, she exclaimed. ''Did you know this is your new mother, Willie? said the father. Of course he did, she said. Haven't you been talking to him about me. Yes, but I didn't think he cared about a new mother, said the bewildered father. Well, never mind, she said. You like me now; don't you, Willie? You bet I do, was the answer. Helen Viall, '32. DARKNESS As the sun goes down in the burning sky. And peace and quietness steal over the country side, Amid the pine trees' sighing The moon comes up from out of the sea And clears away the darkness. What fear have I of darkness As I sit by the fireside? I look out of the window and see the moon and its clearness Where it shines on meadow and brook And clears away the darkness. Madeleine Murphy, '29. DRAMATIC NOTES The Senior Class Play, Oh Kay ! has been selected earlier than usual this year by a committee elected from the class.

CONTENTMENT PASSE RICHESSE Contentment passe richesse est un vieux proverbe. II est meileur etre pauve et heureux que c'est etre tres riche et n'avoir pas contentment. II y avait une petite fille que nous appelerons Marie. Son pere etait un millionaire. Marie avait toutes les choses qu'elle desirait mais encore elle etait malheureuse. Son pere remarque un jour qu'elle avait un triste air dans son oeil.
