SHORTER GIRL ' S CREED. I believe in girls, in the women of a great to morroiv, and that whatsoever a girl soweth, the wo- man shall reap. I believe in the curse of ignorance, in the dignity of learning, and the joys of serving others. I believe in wisdom as revealed in human lives OS well as in the pages of printed books; in lessons laugh not so much by precept as by example, in ability to ivork with the hands as well as to think with the head, in everything that makes life large and lovely. believe in beauty in the home, in the class-room, in the work-room, and in the influence of the great out-cf-doors. believe in laughter, in love, in faith, in all dis- tant hopes and lure us on. I believe in the present and its opportunities, in the future and its obligations, and in the divine joy of living, here and hereafter.

The magic of the firelight seemed to have lifted the curtain of years and once more the class of ' 22 was able to sing whoop ' em up with the same old zest. And after that, it was only natural that the past should be recalled. Some sighed as they noticed the shrunken circle. And we were once th irty-one, said one, ruefully. Thirty-one! Why don ' t you remember when we were Freshmen how we sang ' We are only eighty-two in number ' ? And aren ' t Freshman songs ridicilous? Just think of that ' Look- out. Here Conies the Freshman Class! ' And indeed we must have created quite a sensation with our hair parted and tightly plaited and our faces shined with soap. That was — why girls it really was in 1918 — and this is why that was nineteen years ago! We ' re getting old! All except Gena. As usual she manages to stay ahead of us. What would we have done without her? Do you remember that first Freshman election? Can ' t you just see the Juniors there — most as thrilled as we were. And our private meeting later when we adopted ' Rose and Black for our class colors and ' Carry On ' for our motto. If we ' re going to turn this into a memory meeting we might as well go about it systematically, so let ' s each tell what impressed us most and then we won ' t omit anything. So you begin, Madame President. I always liked the Juniors in those days, confessed Gena. And — well I don ' t suppose I ' ll ever forget that party they gave for us in the gym. Real fairy-land with a king and queen and a whole court of fairies. And we all wore costumes, and they played Cinderella. But you remember it as well as I do. Have you ever felt so weighted down with responsibility as when we had to give that affair in the dining room on Washington ' s birthday? I tacked up red, white and blue streamers, and cut hatchets and fixed cherry trees until — well, it took several years for me to get back that same feeling I had for George before our class made its debut and celebrated his birth- day. And the former chairman of the decoration committee sighed at the remembrance. And the outfits we had to appear in! I ' ll never forget how con- spicious I felt that night in my costume of a colonial gentleman. So tight, and the powder falling out of my hair into my eyes. But still speaking of costumes, do you remember what a time we all had trying to rent dress suits for the ' Cafe de Luxe ' when we entertained our Juniors? And the fits of those suits! But as long as it was for our Juniors we ' d have suffered martyrdom to please them. The daring member of the class next demanded attention. Feasts! she exclaimed. Freshman Feast! Even if we did have to wait until April to pull it. And away down the hill below the gates. And weren ' t we proud of ourselves! How we did sing in the court the next morning. Couldn ' t even wait until after breakfast. I can ' t think of anything else that year and I ' d rather talk about feasts anyway, so let ' s skip the rest and begin after we were Sophomores, had initiated the Freshmen and everything, and then we had another feast, in November that time, but at the same place. Wasn ' t that a thrilling song, ' Sophomores Had a Feast Last Night ' ? Who has forgotten Princess Winsome and Valentine Day? Didn ' t we have a lot on our hands that year? And it was right here where we entertained our Seniors. Can ' t you just see those Lidian maidens and hear Margie ' s and Jessie ' s guitars? How they could play and sing. We didn ' t know how much we would miss Margie and Ruby until they left us the next year. But that isn ' t all that happened, you know our Seniors gave us a theater party and a tea at the Brown Betty, and of course the Sopho- more-Senior Banquet at the Forrest. I fear we must have been a sentimental class. Just think of all our songs, ' Seniors, You Know We Love You, ' etc. And ever since that class day in 1920 I never could stand the sight of a daisy. How it hurt to have to get up so early for two weeks before commencement until we finally picked twenty tubs of the abominable things. It ' s a good thing we didn ' t find out who threw that shoe-polish down the shoot. It came pretty near being the last straw! We felt repaid when we saw how truly beautiful the daisy chain was, but don ' t blame us for any thoughts we might have had on the way to Maplehurst for it was heavy. But at the ring ceremony — weren ' t you sorry for every selfish thought you ever had? More than one pillow, on which the Senior rings were returned, was damp. And every one felt kind of solemn-like as we went home late that afternoon. Strange how quickly our motherly feeling toward the Freshmen developed when we were Juniors. And didn ' t we have the most fun rush- ing them. Will you ever forget those heart-to-heart meetings we used to have when Gena tried to make everyone confess? And that year we had the biggest day of all to celebrate — Thanks- giving! We made a Shorter day of it and paid tribute to the founder. Col. Alfred Shorter, and to the one who had done so much for the upbuilding of greater Shorter — Dr. Van Hoose. And Oh, girls! Aren ' t you glad we did? We took our Freshmen to the court of the Queen of Flowers. Then came the adoption of our mascot, little Mary Van Hoose. Of course the Freshmen gave a party for us, and a little out of the ordinary was the picnic we gave for the Seniors in the gym. It was just before commence- ment so we could afford t bury the hatchet and call off the emnity exist- ing between the two classes since our coming to Shorter Hill. 0, surely don ' t forget how we got in practice for leap-year. That night we asked our Sophomores! The thrill that comes once in a life time and all that! Why, I was postively ill until mine accepted. No, it wasn ' t hard for most of us to decide. ' And then up on Senior Hall! Let ' s talk about that a while. Re- member how sore we were at first. It had taken three years to be allowed to live up on that sacred third floor and we suffered willingly. Even the torment of the flowing robe and choker which braced the head at the proper angle to balance the cap with the tassel that just would stay in my eye. And we were conceited enough to imagine that we inspired awe and difference in the underclassmen. We marched to church that first Sunday quite bravely. It was our first appearance in the role of ' digni- fied Seniors, ' you remember. Jessie was so sick we didn ' t feel like hav- ing a Hallowe ' en party, and so the only thing we had to worry about was the Argo fund. Wasn ' t the Tavern fun while it lasted? And that carnival in the gym? How we did rack our brains to devise ways to make money. But what about that clever Christmas Tree the Sophomores gave for UF in Senior Sitting Room? Didn ' t you just love them to death? And then — can you ever forget the second time we wore our caps and gowns? How we stood on the porch at Maplehurst and hear once more ihe words of the funeral service read, and the words of the song so beloved by him, ' Abide With Me. ' Even after you saw him lying so gray and ftill, alone in that flower-filled room, did you realize that our Dr. Van Hoose was gone? That he couldn ' t ever talk to his girls anymore and never would we see his beloved face at Chapel. And then the memorial service. 411 that put a diff erent meaning into our caps and gowns for us all, I think. And after Christmas we had to go on as if nothing had happened. How quickly the Spring term passed! Of course we hid the crook and there was a lo t of excitement — for the Juniors. We went to the ban- quet at the Forrest that our Sophomores gave for us, and lived, as in a dream, through the commencement week that followed. And before we knew it, we had finished and were ready to go out into the world. It must have been a sad group of girls who went to Senior Sitting Room after receiving the diplomas that morning. But we sang Whoop ' em up ' and promised to come back to every reunion. And this is the first time that we have had even half the class back. The last bit of flame flickered and died, unnoticed, for each, oblivious the rest, was lost in her own memories. Annie Hazel Spurlin, Historian.

Babbie, of the Gypsy band, who has never been known to make a mistake in foretelling future events. It was only afte r much persuasion and imploring on my part that she finally consented to help me in this great task of looking into the fates of these girls of ' 22 who have been preparing themselves these many years for what the future holds for them and are now ready to leave their Alma Mater — in quest of — they know not what — and now — I think I see Babbie and if she will please come forward we will ease the minds of these anxious girls — at least we hope the fates are going to be kind enough to them — to make them look forward to and not dread what is coming. Why goodness — gracious. Babbie, I knew you were called a fortune teller but I didn ' t know that you brought sure enough — really — truly fortunes with you and so many that you had to bring them in a wagon. A surprise — let s see what. Why look here at this darling little desk for Myrtle Arnall, too. Myrt always had so much trouble trying to keep the Argo material just where and how she left it. I ' m sure she ' ll need this desk to keep things straight when she gets to be editor of the New York Times. Oh, yes, Myrt, being editor-in-chief of that Argo might have seemed a big worry and much work, but just think how glad you ' ll be that you had the experience. Please don ' t forget your class and how about sending us a copy every now and then. What ' s this? Looks as if somebody had been playing paper dolls. No — why Beth, this doesn ' t help solve the problem for you. Your destiny seems to be in your own hands. Listen to this! Miss Allen being so changeable it was almost impossible to tell just exactly what to expect of her. One minute, as we look into the crystal ball, we seem to see her turn to Snooks, but before we can make up our minds to say that she will marry him she abruptly turns t o say manget, and then — but there are so many of them on the string I ' ll not try to mention them all. I can only offer a timely suggestion. Put the poor things out of suspense, either by taking one of them for better or worse or taking the veil. We think you would make a stunning Nun. Black is so becoming. Ladies and gentlemen, I wish to introduce to you my friend and fellow-fool, Willie Dean Andrews, who will deliver the welcome address of the evening. Ladies and gentlemen. I wish to introduce to you my friend and fellow-fool. Monk Nowell. Now that ' s what we now seem to hear when looking into the future of these two girls. The fellow-fools will be giving their act on the Hipprodrone stage many years hence. We want them to have some serious moments so during their spare times they can read these books — Paradise Lost, Paradise Regained. Why Sidney Applewhite, I ' m surprised at you. You ' ve been keeping some- thing from us . I didn ' t know you would ever — but listen to this — Dr. Sidney Applewhite will be one of the most famous dentists in the South — a true painless dentist — impossible you say. Oh, no — and she won ' t have to give them ether or laughing gas either. Those patients will just naturally laugh without it. Sidney, be sure to let us know where you locate. It ' s mighty hard to believe, especially if you use instruments like this, but Babbie never makes a mistake. Here is somebody who is going to remain with her Alma Mater for Babbie writes, Shorter Hill appears in the crystal ball, faint at first, but gradually becomes clearer. Something is coming up the winding road — a taxi, but how different from all the others — and a girl is driving, too. It stops at the door and a load of girls get out. but it is quickly filled again. There is a sign, Barber Taxie Service for Shorter Girls only — any time — any where. Twelve cents there and back. And look Mae, here ' s a cap already made for you. This is certainly a noble cause and I know you will receive vour just reward. Louise Brown, I do believe you are going to follow in your father ' s foot- steps and be a lawyer. Look at this huge volume — one of those awful looking law books. They always did scare me to death, but you are so smart you won ' t have any trouble with them. If any of us ever need the services of a lawyer we will certainly give you our cases. Margaret Brewster always loves children so and could play with them so good we didn ' t have to think a second time to be able to prophecy what her future would be. She ' s going to be the matron of an orphans ' home and have all the children she wants to play with. Will that very talented member of our class, Miss Jessie Collier, please come forward. There are so very many things that you could do it was very, very hard for us to be sure, but we wouldn ' t dare tell vou until we had exhausted every means of foretelling events from the crystal ball to cards, from reading the stars to consulting departed spirits. All agree that you will be a great dancer. From experience we know just how hard it is to get up costumes, so for your first performance we want you to wear this. There are various and sundried organizations at Shorter that we are all ac- quainted with, but there is one that maybe some of us don ' t know quite so much about. Maybe I don ' t know all the members, but those I ' m sure of are Lucile Coker, Mary Linsey Tennent and Lila King are members of the engaged girls league. We don ' t know whether to envy them or not, but to show our hearts and sympathies are with them we give them these implements of matrimony which I ' ve inclined to fear they may need in the future — oh, to make pastry with of course. Poor little Audry — she ' s such a gloomy person and she ' s going to be a trained nurse too. We feel so sorry for your patients, dear. If you only had a sweet smile. We are giving you this one to wear so that in the future you will have no excuse to frown and will have a pleasant smile for everybody. Course we know what Letty will be with all that gorgeous hair. She will have to be one of two things — an advertisement for Mulsified Cocoanut Oil or a Movie Star. Come to think of it she could be both, but we want her to have this little secretary to take care of all that Movie Star mail that she will get from the fans. Here ' s to our representative to the Metropolitan Opera, Miss Sarah Glover. When you make your tours, Sarah, I know you ' ll need this piano to take around with you. You see it ' s so very nice and compact — it will fit into your suit-case. Be sure to give lots of concerts in the South so we can come and hear you. I knew we would have a politician in our midst. Miss Elizabeth Harden. We could not tell the name of her party — it was democratic, republican, socialist or any of those. So Liz, yes, I suppose you ' ll have one all your own. Anyway, here ' s a fine stump for you to make your speeches on. A gavel — and for Miss Eugenia Howard. Congratulations, Gena, you centainly will make a fine one. Just think of all these years of training. And aren ' t you glad we had that course in Parliamentary Law — you will have an opportunity tc practice what you learned. For you ' re going to be the President of the U. S. Senate. They tell us this is Woman ' s Age and that women are entering into every phase of business — politics, etc., that men have, and I ' m beginning to believe it from looking into the future of our class. Why, here ' s a girl that is going to have a chain of banks. She comes by this banking business naturally since all her family are in it. Lunita, if times get any worse and there are any more bandits than there are now you ' ll certainly need some protection. So here ' s a body guard for you and also a most ferocious weapon. Madamoiselle Janette Goncourt, la modiste, just from Paris, will design gowns for all occasions. Now, Annie Laurie, aren ' t you ashamed to fool the public like that. I know though that you can get away with it and will never tell. When we come to N. Y. if you ' ll give us a per cent, off maybe we can afford to have the great and only Madomoiselle to design us one dress. Here ' s a French phrase book — you may need one to help you along. Bert, I didn ' t know until I began to look into your future that you would ever be one — but this would seem to prove it — for here ' s your shingle already to hang out. Anybody who studies as hard as Louise Mclntyre ought to lead a gay life afterwards to balance things up. So Louise, keep these scales so that you can even things up. Oh, these awful looking ' specimens — cannibals for Mabel Owens. Now, Mabel, I have my doubts about you being a missionary with all those numerous young people of the opposite sex rushing you so. But far be it from me to doubt the cards and the cannibals do need you. Love poems by Ada Belle Patrick. Written down by the gate at Apple Blossom time in Lombardy. Yes, Ada Belle is going to be one of the most famous writers of the twentieth centurv. You ' ll need a handv little pad and pencil to jot down your inspirations, Ada Belle. Elizabeth Ramsey is always in a hurry — always one for speed. Yes, you ' ve guessed it — she ' s going to be a telephone o])erator. You know how fast you have to be to be one of those. Here ' s the proverbial package of gum, Elizabeth. Clarice Ray — I do believe you are going into the beauty parlor business — No — oh, I see — you know they have called Clarice ole Lady ever so long, but she ' s going to surprise vou when it ' s really time for her to be an ole lady she ' s going to be a gay young thing. Here ' s all the paraphernalia for such a role. Louise tried to fool us into believing she wanted to teach school, but the funny part about it is that she was going to summer school to take a course in domestic science. Now, Em inclined to think that things look a little suspicious, especially when you think of the nianv times a sudden young man from Tech comes to Rome, and it ' s a singular coincidence — they both graduate this year. I ' m not sure but what she needs a rolling pin, too, but we ' ll just give her this kitchen outfit instead. She may need it in her study of domestic science this summer. To Annie Hazel Spurlin — that mathematical and business-like person — we give the chair of Math at the I niversity of Wisconsin. Maybe you think we are taking lots of liberties with that chair, but we are just giving her the symbol of it as it were. She will get the real thing later. Whenever vou want Erdelle Williford vou can find her in the art room. Here ' s a palate for you Delle. We re expecting to see your masterpiece in the Louvre some day if we can ever get there. Now, Eve, we were sure you were going to be Associate Editor of something because you had alreadv Ben-net but it appears that vou are going to be a leader of New York ' s four hundred. I think vou will be able to use this lorgnette very effectively. — Eva Howard.

The purpose of the Young Woman ' s Christian Association shall be to unite the women of this institution in loyalty to Jesus Christ, to have them accept Him as their personal Savior; to build them up in the knowledge of Jesus, especial- ly through Bible Study and Christian Servic e. Following, a custom adopted during a previous year the association member- ship is divided into three groups. Each group has a chairman who with the chair- man of the Religious Department of the Cabinet, make up the program committee of the association. In many of the Sunday Schools in the Churches of Rome, Shorter girls are finding ample opportunity to teach and in this way to serve. At Thanksgiving Time, through the Social Service Department, baskets were carried by Shorter girls into homes of the needy. Christmas also was an event which showed the splendid spirit of Shorter girls. Funds were raised for a tree at Mark McDonald Memorial, a mission school and for Salvation Army ' s Christmas tree. Something over two hundred children enjoyed a tree given by the college girls. In the early part of the year. Dr. Sammons, pastor of First Baptist Church, of Rome, held a series of Revival Services in college chapel. These meetings were very helpful and caused a deeper and more spirtual element to enter into the life of the college. The association has during the past year tried to lead its members to a fuller knowledge of Jesus and a more consecrated life to His service.

When Peter Pan Polymnia lost He laid his pipes aside No heart had he for melody He hung his head and cried. But ages later one Spring morn Upon old Shorter Hill Within a hundred hearts he found Polymnia living stilt. He grasped his pipes in ecstacy And thrilled the woods again — And if you listen you can hear him Trill the siveet refrain : I love the name of Polymnian, It ' s the sweetest of music to me, I love the girls of Polymnian — They re the girls that the ivorld loves to see. I love the girls of Polymnian — Tho ' the best is the last ivith Polymnian And the red, white and green of Polymnian Is the certain sign of victory. E. McNeil Poteat, Jr..

Say chile doilt you join Any other club you know You ' ll lose all yo ' honor ' Crease all your woe What in the world will become of you Nobody knows. Through many years since 1879 My Mammy has brightened the path and painted the way to victory to many a girl. She has shown that up on Shorter hill from cook to dean, they surely know what Polymnian colors mean. My Mammy has demonstrated more than once that red, white and green is peerless; for, does not the red stand for red-blooded young women, the white for earnestness of purpose; and the green for unsevering loyalty in heart of every Polymnian?

They sure make things go humming around. And any Eunomian can tell you the reason — Eunomian Spirit! This undying loyalty and dauntless spirit characterizes Eunomians the world over and because of it you will always find Eunomians at the top, proving themselves true wearers of the Green and Green. The enthusiasm and achievement of 1921-22 have added another glorious year to our history and caused our colors to fly higher than ever. At the beginning of the year we enrolled a bunch of new girls that we could trust, who entered speedily into the joys, aspirations and enthusiasm of those who have gone before. During the year we have made numerous improvements in our beautifully furnished hall and one of the most enjoyable of events was the christening of Little Eunomian, our new baby-grand piano. The programs this year have been exceedingly instructive as well as interesting. We have studied various phrases of music, art, and the Bible as a literary work, reserving one evening of each month for social purposes. (Every member has enjoyed and profited by the delightful programs.) May the unchanging love and loyalty which every Eunomian has for her society grow with the coming years and lead the girls who are to come to even greater victories and achievements for the Green and Green.

On Saturday night just after the basket-ball game between the Sen- iors and Sophomores, the Senior team was invited to Senior Den. As they came in the class greeted them with You have to hand it to our team; Gee, but ain ' t they fine! And then everybody sang Whoop ' em up ' ' with good old Senior pep. An attractive table was arranged in the center of the room for the team. Delicious sandwiches and ice cream were served. After sing- ing some more, everybody went home, declaring they had had a marvelous time — and we did! SHORTER SPIRIT . SHORTER girls are the best yet! SPIRIT among them is indomitable.

AGAIN we must cheer for .fVlma Mater. —J. C. IDEALS. To hit the target, we always aim higher than its position. Let us set our ideals high and strive ever to hit the mark. Of course, we ' ll fail time and time again, but let us keep trying. There are numbers of ideals ive can set up for ourselves — ideals of student government, ideals of scholarship, ideals of clean sports- manship. Some ime said it is no ' failure that is a crime, but low aim. Set the ideals liigh. strive daily and soon the distance between us and them will not be half so great. There is a glory in the struggle to attain them. Of course, human as we are, mists will some times come between us and the target. Keep looking high and believing and that blinding mist will fade away. VARSITY SQUAD GOES TO JACKSONVILLE. The varsity squad goes to Jack- sonville, Ala., March 11, to play the return game with the State Normal. .Since the last game, the team has been practicing hard, and feel them- selves in better form to meet their opponents. Those on the squad are: Brown, Martin, Gray, Patrick, Tur- ner, Coker, Benton, Davis. Dye, An- drews and King. STUDENT DAY AT CHAPEL. Saturday has been chosen as Stu- dent Day at chapel on which day the students are taking great interest in making this a helpful and attractive service. So far they have been very successful. Saturday, February 2.5, Miss Flora Campbell led the exercise and gave a beautiful interpretation of the 103rd Psalm. Miss Caroline Gray played a violin solo. The Old Refrain, which was greatly enjoyed. We hope that the students will continue to do their best by these chapel exercises. SOPHOMORES ' WIN BASKET- BALL CUP.

The London Concert Company gave a most unique and enjoyable program in the college chapel Wed- nesday evening. March 1 5. at eight o ' clock. The company, as its name implies, is distinctively English, and the program was made up mostly of English songs and music. Mr. John E. Wester gave a num- ber of character impersonations most of which were purely English. but some of his numbers were uni- versal. HELPFUL HINTS TO HOUSE- WIVES. Plain olive bottles may be con- verted into lovely vases. .A. lavatory makes a very conven- ient punch bowl. The silver chest may be replenish- ed by using shoe horns as spoons, rulers as knives and nail files as olive forks. Dishes for a luncheon may be easily obtained by substituting powder boxes for desert dishes, box tops for plates, pin trays for sand- wich trays, peanut butter jars for chocolate. A bed post makes a very safe place in which to deposit the family jewels. ' Chewing gum makes excellent sealing wax. If you once use a slipper for a hammer you will never be contented to use anything else. Books are better than nut crack- ers for cracking nuts. In our dressmaking department we give the suggestion that a half yard of elastic will enable you to wear them four inches above or be- low and will save worlds of trouble.

Oh. yes, our Varsity can tell you all about it ; they are very skilled at touring, and although it hapened not to be Jacksonville. Florida, this time you can ' t wonder that they had been pepped up to a million for weeks, at the mere anticipation of this, their first, last and only trip of the year. It was an excited crowd that gathered in the court on that mem- orable Saturday morning, determi- nation beaming on every face. After a very short train ride they reached the metropolis of Jackson- ville, where they were met by the Normal School team, and in record- breakiiig time they became acciuaint- ed with the place. Possibly you have heard rumors concerning the poor appetites of the team, but if you could have seen them consuming their first meal, cafeteria style, all your fears would have been banish- ed forever. Now. as you no doubt know, this was no sight seeing tour, and with that night came the sole and only object of the trip — the game! It was one of the fastest, prettiest and cleanest games of the year, and although Shorter ' s score wasn ' t so favorable, it ' s team put up a hard fight and showed some fi.rst class parswork. The game was a genuine thriller from start to finish, and Shorter ' s team showed up the splen- did training of its coach. Miss Apple- gate. - nd Jacksonville certainly played a good, square game and showed its visitors the best of times. Shorter Varsity is looking for- ward to next year with hopes for many more inter-collegiate games with as many victories. The line-up was as follows: Guards. Davis Andrews. Forwards, Patrick. Turner. Center. Brown. Subs. Martin, Gray. Dye. Benton. Coker and Hudson, The team was chaperoned by Miss Applegate. Mr. Porter acted as ref- eree. With Our Sophomores To Sophomores ' Tis sweet to meet — ' tis sad still more To end this year, oh Sophomores, You ' ve been a friend to your sister class. And we love you, every single lass.

Although the entire college com- munity had for some weeks looked forward with interest to the visit of Dr. Pieter J. Kooiman. of New York City, to Miss Marie Van Aaken, dean of the Department of Music, their marriage on April 1. came as a great surprise to everyone, except a few very close friends. The marriage service was very quietly solemnized at St. Peter ' s church at four o ' clock, the rector. Rev. H. Fields Saumenig, officiating. Those present at the ceremony were: Dr. and Mrs. W. D. Furry. Captain and Mrs. C. F. O ' Keefe. Miss Luella Schoen, Miss Emma Jane Hanna. Miss Loui.se Bowen and Mr. Leo Holden. The ceremony was fol- lowed by an informal tea at the Hotel General Forrest where other guests included Mrs. J. T. McCall, Miss Lillian Coulter. Mrs. H. F. Saumenig. Misses . ddie Lou Lay. Phosa Durden. Ida Hollov ay and Ruth Holden. Dr. and Mrs. Kooiman left at six o ' clock for a short stay in Chatta- nooga, after which Mrs. Kooiman will resume her duties at Shorter. At the close of the session she will join Dr. Kooiman in New York, where they will make their home. Dr. Kooiman. the son of Captain T. Kooiman, a member of the gen- eral staff at . mersfoort. Holland, received his doctorate from the Uni- versity of Utrecht last June, and in August came to .■merica where he entered the law firm of Harrington. Euglar and Jones. Wall Street. New York City. Mrs. Kooiman, fo r the past four years, dean of the Department of Music, has. through her charming personality and generous talent en- deared herself to both students and faculty of Shorter, who wish for her and Dr. Kooiman all that is bright and happy in the future. SENIORS ENTERTAIN; APRIL FOOL PROGRAM. April Fool Day came and went with a fine celebration — for the first time in years — for the Seniors al- lowed us to sit at any table at lunch and enjoy their program ; in fact, it all turned out to be a real, true par- ty like the rest ot them — except that it come in the middle of the day instead of at night. And there were the cunningest little menues and dear little cheking-gum favors. Two adorable clow ' ns welcomed us and explained the program during the course of it. There was Spring, who sang to us; Miss Sara Glover, the great singer. Miss Elizabeth Har- din, and the da ncing by Miss Jessie Collier and Beth . llen. funnily imi- tated by the agile clowns. Miss Clarice Ray delighted us with her readings and Miss Roberta Lawrence with her ringing bells. . 11 told, we enjoyed it quite as much as we did the famous London Concert. MABLE OWENS GIVES LUNCHEON. Miss Mabel Owens was hostess for a delightful luncheon at the Brown Betty Tea Room in honor of Euno- mian debaters. The table was attractively deco- rated in colors of green and green, the centerpiece being an artistic basket of roses tied with colors. Leading to each plate was a light or dark green ribbon at the end of which was a loving cup for a place card. A five course luncheon was serv- ed, carrying out the color scheme. Covers were laid for Misses Lunita Jacobs. Willie D. . ndrews. Elizabeth Arthur. Mary S. Jones. Mabel Owens. Myrtle . rnall. Lois Choate and Miss Holden. The old order changeth, gi ving place to the new. and Shorter Spirit manifests itself in many ways. So it is with our sports, the class and society basket-ball games have been played, and everyone has taken all examinations on basket-ball rules. The Sophomores won the basket-ball cup and now it is to be seen which class will star on the diamond. Very soon practice will begin and many heretofore undeveloped talents will be discovered in the candidates for the various class teams. And before long fast and furious battles will be waged between the Ty Cobbs and Babe Ruths of each class. The baseball captains of each class have been elected, they are: Willie Dean Andrews. Seniors; Jessie Sutton. Juniors; Elizabeth Turner. Sophomores, and Annie and Ida Young, Freshmen. SATtTRDAY CHAPEL TO BE INTERESTING. If you have any more cuts don ' t use them Saturday morning. If you do you will be sorry. A group of Shorter Players will present three humorous scenes f rom two of Shake- speare ' s comedies. As You Like It and The Merchant of Venice. ' ' For some time chapel services on Saturday morning have been con- ducted by the students. These exer- cises have been more than interest- ing and worth while. The program Saturday will be no exception. RECESS OR BOOiSS? Ding-a-ling-ling. Everybody ran to the window, fully expecting to see the Eskimo Pie man jogging up the hill, but the sad realization sud- denly dawned upon them when they perceived Victoria ringing the old- fashioned school bell. It was merely time for classes and nothing more. Which reminds one: Of all sad words of tongue or pen. The saddest are these — it might have been.

Because last fall our hopes had been in vain. .And now. they ' d promised that they ' d come again. The girls with smiling faces had to wait. Because, alas! the orchestra was late. But not so late — because at six they came. And in the chapel they upheld their fame. Piano! Sa.xaphone, and violin — You know how all the girls began to grin. Out pealed the strains of ■' Skeik and Dapper Dan. Miss Wendell thought it sounded like a tin pan. Then calmly down the aisle Miss Wende ' l went. And to their work the girls she quickly sent.

I ' d wake with the dawn in the morn- ing. And play the whole day long. .And I ' d sing with the twilight sun- set And sleep till the light was born. I ' d sing with the lark at dew-time. And dance with the sprites at night. And I ' d be happy — oh. so happy — For God gave me that right. And then when my life was over, Mv work and my play all done, I ' d sink to an eternal sleep With the fiery ball of sun. And I ' d count my days well spent. And drink to the happiness of man; For I ' d have learned a faith in my Father. And lived according to God ' s cher- ished plan.

' (4! Thou slialt not be a rotten loser. (.5) Thou shalt not take unfair advantages. (61 Thou shalt not ask odds thou art unwilling to give. (7! Thou shalt always be ready to give thine opponent the shade. (8! Thou shalt not underesti- mate thyself.

And then there followed whole bat- talions. Red, yellow, pink and blue. Next we took up millinery. And ' tis wondrous to relate. Every girl now wears a chapeau. Which she did herself create. From a remnant cheaply purchased. One can make a charming dress. And a vogue-like hat is fashioned From some straw and flowers from Kress. But with all these hats and dresses.

We have some right here at .Shorter, Greater wonders than they, by far. There ' s the girl who gets up early. And takes great pains to fix her hair. One wears skirts most to her ankels. She ' s the one at whom we stare. There ' s the girl who goes to classes, And no cuts from chapel takes. Then the girl who ' s never restricted. Not a single rule she breaks. There ' s the girl who ' s always smil- ing. Tho ' she ' s had a long, hard test. One who never uses powder. And paint and all the rest. As we come to the seventh wonder. All the rest of them seem small. For the girl who doesn ' t borroi- Is the wonder of them all. — L. Brown. 22. A recent regulation Gave us all the information To avoid contamination We must have inoculation. So without discrimination We all had the punctuation And endured the inflammation Like unto a conflagraticm. And our muscles in vibration Made us nurse with irritation The sore cause of our vexation ' Til we cried with petulation. And each poorer recitation Then we had no concentration For the thought of education Drove us nearer desperation. With the humblest observation We sought for consolation But none had the inclination To extend commiseration. We have given condemnation To another duplication We can t bear more degradation We ll indulge in expiration. And they ll take us to the station Weeping tears of desolation . nd we ' ll reach our distination With our feet before our heads. — Louise Hudson, ' 25. ' FRIENDSHIP. ' Thou art the pride of Senior hearts, The greatest of Junior woes. Thou are gone from here. Art thou far or near? Where hast thou gone? Who knows? I— ARGO Art thou hid in the highest attic. Or buried ' neath cellar floor? Thy discov ry is dear To the Juniors who fear They will never find thee — Who knows? Some say thou wast hid in a mat- tress once. Or in a basket of clothes. But it is quite clear That you give Juniors a ' skeer When they hunt for thee — Who knows? But if thou art found, and if thou art not. Our thoughts will to thee go. Class day thou wilt appear. Wearing rose and black, dear. We certainly hope: but — Who knows? — S. G. and J. G. When you find a girl who is honest to you. When you are sad and feeling blue. Not so indifferent with her head in the air. When the world has treated you un- fair. One that would stick to you thru thick or thin Whether you lose or whether you win. One who alwavs has a merry song When everything with you has gone dead wrong. One who will listen to your tales of woe. And always think of you wherever you go. One who is backing you in all you do. She ' s a friend — who has proven true. — M. Arnall. ' 22. THE RINGING TRUTH. Oh, wise the girl who made the rvhme Which hangs thus to my mind. When on deep subjects I would think My thoughts on this I would find. It is the truest little line, I ' ve heard in many a day. I ' ll tell it to you. Shorter girls. It goes just this-a-way!
