THE ALMANAC ON TI-IE I-IORIZON N The horizon, on ThaT shrouded plane we call The TuTure, lie our lives. The shroud may IiTT someTimes, and give us a momenTary glance inTo our lives. BuT all To oTTen iT sTays down, hiding Trom us The possible TuITilImenT oT our dreams, our prayers, our desires. Then iT is up To us To Tear The veil aparT. And To Tear The veil aparT, we musT TirsT give all our sTrengTh, all our courage and mind To. The work which we have seT Tor ourselves in This IiTe. Only by ceaseless, earnesT endeavor can we hope To Tind, when our rac eis over and we are waiTing Tor The reTerees To give a decision, ThaT The veil is no longer down. And whaT will we see on The oTher side? Will we see vicTory, glorious, glamor- ous vicTory, vicTory ThaT means we have noT given. our lives To The cause in vain, or will we see deTeaT? And iT we see deTeaT, will iT be a deTeaT oT which we are noT ashamed, a deTeaT ThaT means we played The game cleanly and hard, and only wenT down because The adds were Too greaT, or will iT be a deTeaT ThaT will show The world The slaclcer, The grumbler, The ne'er-do well ThaT has been hidden in our souls? Will we be proud oT This deTeaT, conscious ThaT e losT Through no TaulT oT our own, WhaT ThaT veil will reveal is being shaped by our hands every minuTe oT our lives, and if Those hands are indusTrious and eager, we need never Tear The liTTing oT ThaT shroud, conscious ThaT whaTever iT shows is The besT we can ever oTTer. Nicholas Cherepowich TEMPERAMEIXIT WiTh heavy, dirTy, gray sTones I will build my prison Far inTo The gray heavens WiTh The sweaT oT my work on my brow, WiTh The sweaT oT my labor in my palms. Finished, I will gaze Through The barred windows To The piTying people, So Tar, Tar in The misT below. WiTh Their piTy in Their sTaring eyes, In The bend oT Their upTurned heads: In The planT oT Their widespread TeeT. PiTying my loneliness, my aloneness, I will gloaT, In my loneliness, my aloneness Far Trom Their eyes and Their heads and Their TeeT. And up in The darlc prison oT my own making Lillian Vogel Page Eleven

THE ALMANAC ON THE HONCDRARY Tln which a lower Senior becomes an ArisTa membenl SEWARDITE spends lovely spring nighTs and breezy auTumn eves wading Through a shallow sea oT shapely geomeTric problems Tor one primary purpose. He gives up his sTudy periods previously spenT in laughTer and Talk To bury himselT in The depThs oT Gaul and Ceaser. lT requires Tremendous will power To keep his hands aT his sides and his characTer pure when a parTicularly domineering member oT The Honor Service League venTs his personalify upon him. And Tor whaT? The ArisTa looms as a Tar OTT sTar in a serene sky To many oT The sTudenTs oT our school. All Through Their High School careers a greaT many SewardiTes have ambiTions oT joining The ArisTa. SomeTimes This ambiTion Tades wiTh The appearance OT The age old TormenTor, The Tell-Tale reporT card. BuT mosT Times, The sTudenT sTruggles Through his sTudies wiTh The hope ThaT he will graduaTe a member oT The noble ArisTa. ln his sevenTh Term, This parTicular sTudenT believes he is ready To apply Tor membership, a biT laTe buT beTTer laTe Than never J AT lasT he is called beTore The ArisTa Assembly lThe members oT The ArisTal Tor quesTioning. He waTches hisl Tellow- applicanTs-Tor-membership emerge Trom The mysTerious Assembly chamber and Tries To inTerpreT The baTTled, half TrighTened, halT relieved expression on The Taces oT The Tormer vicTims. Oh, he solemnly promises his conscience, IT I 'should become a member l'll never ask any applicanT a guesTion, never. When The ordeal is over he emerges Trom The chamber, wiTh a wry smile, halT TrighTened and halT relieved, re- peaTing his resoluTion. Well, The anxious sevenTh Termer becomes an ArisTa member in his Senior Term. Added To The burden oT iusTiTying The Term Senior is The TiTle ArisTa Member . 'Whereas his nose would have been adiusTed aT righT angles had he borne only The TirsT honor, his nose is carried in ya compleTe sTraighT angle wiTh The addiTion oT The second posiTion. AT lasT The advenT of quesTioning new applicanTs is approaching and has arrived. A shaky voiced sTudenT enTers wiTh a Torced smile on his Tace. The presidenT goes Through The various TormaliTies due an applicanT and Tinally asks, Are There any quesTions you would like To ask The candidaTe? The once TerriTied sevenTh Term applicanT who has now reached The heighTs oT presTige rises. Madame PresidenT, l have a quesTion To ask The candidaTe. Gone is The promise made To himselT .abouT asking no quesTions. Gone is everyThing buT The ioy of sporT, The pleasure oT The game. He Torges on. As a prospecTive ArisTa member you should be capable oT answering any .quesTion I seT To you. Will you please Tell me oT The belieTs and wriT- ings oT The Greek SocraTes? The gasps oT his Tellow members, The blanching oT The cheek oT The cornered applicanT, disTurb him noT. He siTs. down amid The applause oT his own conscience, and in compleTe peace wiTh The world.
