Cambridge, Mass Most persons come to the close of their four years of college life with a very genuine feeling of regret. There are those who have brought to their work no very serious purpose save that of getting their measure of pleasure and profit from the companionship which such a life offers, and there are those who, in seeking to drink to the full of the opportunities offered, give in return the very best that is in them. To both of these the ending is sad, and it is to them that the Alumnae would send their welcome. Qur interest in our college must not die, because we have turned in one day from students into graduates, but rather it should increase, because it is then more within our power to be of use to our Alma Mater. Many of our number are going out to posts of responsibility, they will be then be able to gauge more accurately the true worth of the work they have just completed, and in retrospect commend what they could not value as they passed along. As graduates our responsibility is even greater than as students, for in the years to come the reputation of the college will depend largely upon our accomplishment, and by it will public opinion be swayed. And so the object of the Alumnae Association is twofold. It must carry on the feeling of comradeship created and become a part of us during our college life, and it must serve as a means whereby our interest and loyalty and responsibility to the college may not be a mere desire in our own minds, but an actual working force. To the class of 1910, which is this year to be added to our ranks, we extend a most cordial welcome. MARTHA WENTWORTH SUFFREN 26 ,f ,, iff ? 14, A 1' ff ff:-15 I-1,1 . , ,Y Q gzffi' , f41ffQfr??'

PERRY ELIZABETH H. EMERSON VICE-PRESIDENT R SECRETARY MARY I. HASKELL TREASURER ewllections of a Senior O you remember the first day you came to Simmons? My, wasn't it hot? You asked the motorman in a very timid, if ,.'. -fjl quavering voice to stop at Simmons College, please, and he did, and you got off with some other girls and looked around, but you didn't see it anywhere. Nevertheless, you followed them, and when you came to a big gray building with dogs looking out of little cubby-holes 'round the top, you wondered if it was going to be the place. However, as nobody else paid any attention, but walked right by, you stopped paying attention and tried to act as if you really knew it wasn't, all the time. In a minute or two you came to what you knew must be Simmons, and you boldly followed the others up the steps and in the door. Of course, if the principal of the high school where you went hadn't perjured himself by certifying that you had a knowl- edge of arithmetic sufficient for the application of the fundamental principle-s,'l you would have come in several days before and been quite familiar with your surroundings, or if you had been a dormitory girl you would have been impressively ushered over by patronizing upperclassmen. Neither of these estates fell to your lot, however, and you stood just inside the door by yourself, very lonesome and very scared. Suddenly a person with a badge dashed forward from a group and laid hands upon you. VVanna register-Household Ec, Libr'y, Secretarial, Science? C'mon. Er-Secretarial, you faltered and blindly you followed her impetuous lead, trusting implicitly in her seeming unbounded knowledge of everything She led the way into a very hot room which was full of people writing or walking about. Seizing three sheets of printed paper, she thrust them into your hands. There, she sighed in the tone of one more over, write down what it says there, 'n' have the division all right, and fix your hour plan to match it, and take it and have them certify it, and she van- ished. You groaned inwardly and cast a longing, beseeching glance toward the door through which her official person had disappeared, but evidently she had gone irrevocably. You learned afterwards that you had been welcomed and that was all any ordinary Freshman had any right to expect. You heaved a heart- felt sigh and sat down to write, though you had not the slightest idea what. Feverishly catching up a pen you sought to unravel the 30 THE MICROCOSM 1910 intricacies of those pages and do as you were told, but you simply became more and more con-fused and began idly to trace the edges of the sunbeams that fell warmly across the desk. Whew, but it was hot! The room grew more crowded and it seemed stifling. What was German Ia, and if you took History I-VI, they came together, and, Ch dear, why didn't someone come and explain? And then you gathered yourself together and we-nt and asked someone at a desk, who did explain, and you sat confidently down and did it all wrong. And then it was twelve o'clock and they told you that registration was over for that day and that you were to come in tomorrow. And when you got home, hot, tired, hungry, they asked you if you liked it and you said Ye-e-es and wondered inwardly if it was all going to be as hard as that. We will draw a veil over the ensuing few days with the hundreds of disasters attendant upon getting a locker, procuring a fOZ'-i1lfCll.Il pen which upheld its name by action at all times. VVhen you got home, you told them', you had climbed millions of flights of stairs and you hoped you would sprain your ankle so you could ride in the elevator, and they said . You needn't complain, you kno-w how you teased to go there, so then you kept still. ' Will you ever forget that first recitation, when the instructor called your name and you blushingly rose to recite? The girls on each side of you jerked you down abruptly and whispered disdainfully that you don't stand up to recite in college , and then you got red-der and redder in a perfect agony of embarrassment, while everybody laughed. Hut then the next day, in another class, someone else did the same thing, so you didn't care and laughed very hard with all the others. You used to run everywhere those first few weeks. You ran for cars and for trains and you always got to college before quarter of nine at the latest. You were very conscientious. Do you remember that time in English I, when they told you to go down to the MB. P. L. and read Greene's Short History of Englandn? Of course you never thought of not going! You hurried importantly in and fell down flat about half way up those white marble stairs because they were so kind of dazzly you couldn't see where one ended and the next began. Someone handed you your umbrella and someone else picked up your lunch box which had rolled down the whole length and left a trail of crumbs behind it, and after that, you slowed up. After dutifully browsing around Bates Hall as recommended by all departments until three men had come up and asked you what you wanted and did 31 THE MICROCOSM IQIO you know it was for reading only and why didn't you sit down, you finally did sit down at number 29 and awaited the coming of Greene's Short History which you had ordered. After a long, long, long time 1' spindle-legged anzemic-looking little boy reeled in, staggering under the weight of an armful of gigantic volumes: behind him came a smaller boy pushing a dray effect also heavily laden. They approached your table and began to unload: they piled them up around you in tiers and you watched them idly wondering' who could be ffo-inff to 6 C b attack that formidable looking fortress' surel f not that dra0'0'1ed old b ' I bb man at the other end. bent over a cobwebby little manuscript. Finally your curiosity got the better of you and you leaned over and glanced at the title of one. You saw Greene's g a sickening feeling crept over you and you rapidly surveyed them all. So this was Greene's Short History of England! As the gasping boy with a heartfelt sigh dis- emburdened himself of the last volume you rose determinedly, drew on your woolen gloves with a decided jerk, and stalked out. And thereafter, vou were a changed being, you had found that after all, even at college, one did not do all that was asked of one. As you look back now. you see that it was really quite a crisis in your career. There have always been a few gullible. unsuspecting souls who would let you take their reading slips just a jiff so you could remember what we had. and strange to say, the eagle-eyed recipients have never. not even in Economics I, seemed to perceive the startling uniformity. Funny, isn't it, how it will take fifty-six girls each just thirty-one minutes to read nine pages in Coman's Industrial History of the United States? For a while after the Greene's History episode, things went along quite smoothly. You complained a good deal,. it is true. but that was just on general principles to give an impression of martyrdom at home, which had certain desirable, practical results, i. e., immunity from doing the dishes on Thursday nights, permission to go to walk Sunday mornings instead of attending church, and the like. Incidentally you did more work than you have ever done sinceg novelty lured you on to endeavor till of a sudden you pulled up with a telling jerk. Do you remember Hygiene I and the Nervous Mechanism? You used to go into that course and stay for centuries it seemedg you looked to see if your hair hadn't turned gray when you emerged from an interminable session. VVell. one day you had to draw a diagram of the mechanism of the eye during an involuntary wink and that was not a drawing in which your imagination could aid you materially. 32 THE MICROCOSM 1910 ll had to be from the inside looking out and not from the outside looking inf, The following Friday when you ran down the lzall to ransack the compartment drawer to see what everyone got, you found a sad surprise awaitingsyou. VVhen you extracted your artistic production from a sorry looking pile, you found you had an F and you were paralyzed with fear. There was obviously but one thing to do! You went straight to Miss Arnold and asked if you couldn't drop History! And of course she said you couldn't, but somehow while you were in there you got the impression that she was saying that you could. It is funny about these appointments with the Dean: during the four years you haven't noticed that, though you have grown older and, it is to be hoped, wiser, there is any appreciable difference in either scene or result. You cry a little, you don't know just why, and she smiles a great deal, and though you entered determined and defiant, you emerge wilted and penitent, and you have never been quite able to decide why. Do you remember that time the spring of Junior year just before the Dance when you got to cutting so'much, and hnally as you came in one morning your eyes were greeted by one of those dreaded billet- doux? Then when you got in the office your knees were all shivery and you sat on the tip edge of the chair. My, weren't your hands cold, and yet your head was all hot and throbby. Miss Arnold didn't seem a bit nervous, but took up a pile of white papers and said, March 27, shorthand, typewriting-why were you unable to be present? And you scrooched down and tried to look through the back of the sheet to see whether you had written a long or a short one, but you couldn't see anything and you hadn't an idea what you'd written- and-well, you were sure you'd 11c'1'c1' be absent again, and then He asked you to go to the Harvard Brown game that came Vvednesday afternoon, and you really did need the air, and- Ah, well, the most striking thing about that affair was that He remembered your once saying, If anything should happen, just call me up on the telephone and they'll leave a note on the board for me, and something did happen, so he called up and the DULYNIIVS Sf'iCl't'liUl'-X' answered, and he said, Will you please tell Miss - not to meet me in Harvard Square at three this afternoon, the game has been postponed. Naturally you didn't get the message and there were certain complications when you tried to explain why you had cut. Then there were those examinations! Remember Freshman Mid- years When you could hear the beef-tea cups bump, clatter, rattle, bump 33 THE MICROCOSM 1910 on the elevator and then finally land with a crash? After a breathless suspense Mary and joe would come in with trays and pass it around. You never took an eye off them till at last you were rewarded-Joe dropped one, the tension broke, and everybody laughed. They told you afterward that the beef-tea was provided by a friend of the college. You have often wondered since what became of that friend of the college-there have been several little suggestions you would fain have made to such a one. But whether the results attendant on beef-tea- nourished victims were not sufficiently above those ordinarily obtained, you do not know, but you have never heard of him since. Anyhow, he always seemed more or less mythical. After all, the years have passed quickly. You have thought no doubt that you were horribly abused, but Time has interspersed a kindly veil through which only the sunshine gleams. They were pretty nice years after all, weren't they? 34 THE MICROCQSM 1910 HELEN MURRAY ADAMZS Vergennes, Vermont Middlebury High School, Middlebury, Vt. Secretarial School Honor Com.

NOYES TREASURER 1911mrT!lZbB why ann tbz wbzrefure my way in the forest and wandered lonely until the gi 5-,igfjj late moon rising over the trees showed me a narrow path, seemingly but little used. It made its way over hillocks, around fern-covered boulders, then suddenly descending, led me down- ward over giant roots and creepers until at last I felt beneath my feet the treacherous ooze and pull of marshy land. It was very dark there in the woods. The air was damp, hot, and filled with the heavy, pene- trating odor of swamp flowers and decaying vegetation. The tree trunks were covered with slime which clung to my hands. I took one step forward, another, a third, and then sprang back with a little cry, for before me there stretched a great expanse of water, black, iizky black in the moonlight, and I stood on the very edge. I-Iad I taken another step-it was well I had gone slowly. I turned to retrace my steps. Ah! Too late, too late! I cried out in alarm. A cloud of mist and fire rose from the water, shutting me in on all sides. 'Flames curled about me. Strange odors Hlled the air. Help! Help! I shrieked. There was no answer, not a sound-only this awful stillness, and through it all the rush and swirl of hurrying hosts whose forms I could not see. Gut of the smoke and the darkness came hands which grasped me, sinewy arms enfolding me, hot, panting breath across my neck, and then I fainted. But, said I, I don't understand why you brought me here. That was an awful fright you gave me. I'll never get over it, and I don't see what you gained by it anyway. Tell me-why- I stopped and looked at her beseechingly. She was seated in her usual place beneath the magic oak tree, her instruments on the moss beside her and her eyes intent on the crystal globe which hung suspended over the fire. It must have been cut from the heart of some gigantic diamond, and was all of black, with jagged points and spurs which caught the light so that I never tired of gazing at it from a distance, for I dared not come too near. All day long the woman of the woods sat watching, watching the secrets of that strange globe, now moaning as if in bitter pain, now reckoning with various instruments, then breathless, intent. on something I could not see, and sometimes, very rarely, smiling as though well pleased. . 56 THE MICROCOSIVI 1910 She was gazing into it now as if she had not heard my question, but even as I was about to ask again, she turned and, pushing back her long, dark hair, beckoned me to her side. Child,', she began, my Child, it has been hard waiting, I know. I must send you back into the world again. You must go by the way you came, through fire and smoke and darkness, but you will not fear it now. You must carry word to the others who are toiling, who are weary because they do not know. I sank down upon the moss beside her. She laid her hand upon my head and I felt strangely happy at her touch. There was a long silence, and then, I must tell you a story, she whispered. It is many, many years since I found the magic diamond, the great black diamond with the glowing heart. Dreary years-sad years-filled with misery and pain. I learned the sorrow of the world and I could not find the remedy. But what does it show ? I asked wonderingly. What is the secret of the sphere ? Low and clear came the answer. In its black depths are shown the stories of man-kind-the wicked laws-the awful crimes. More bitter than the hearts of all my fiends are the lives of many men! Qh, horrid world! She sprang out into the clearing, flinging her arms 'aloft in wild entreaty. How long, she cried, before the earth is cleansed of its awful load of sin and crime? How long before my daughters set it free? I-Iow long, how long? She paused. The rocks around took up the cry and echoed, long-long-long- There was no other answer. It was some time before she took the story up again, but when she at last spoke it was in a serene and almost cheerful tone. You must know, Child. she began, that the world in which you live is a world for men. with man-made laws and institutions. They have striven hard to bring about reforms, to make all things pure and true, but they have lacked the one essential thing, the guiding power of a woman's hand. VVithout that, all things must fail. Clear shining in my crystal sphere, I saw their struggles, and I pitied them, but it was years before I formed my plan to help. At last one night, my spirits brought me word of a new enterprise, a daring scheme, which planned to give a training in those arts and sciences whch would help women earn a living wage, a college, that is, which was to combine the beau- tiful with the practical, intellectual activities with business sense. Why, Child, Child, when that news came, my whole great work stood out ' 57 THE MICROCOSM 1910 clearly before me. I would regenerate the world, and Simmons College should prove the instrument. You ask me why I brought you to my home. Can you not understand? I wished to tell my plan, to send backlword. My message you shall carry, for you are one of those whom I have chosen for the work. One thousand were they all at first. one thousand of the finest children on earth-all girls. I found them here, I found them there, I travelled through the countries of the world, and everywhere there grew a child, beautiful, strong, and wise, I chose her -for my own. One thousand children were they all, but soon the number lessened. Many died-they were not strong enough to bear the load. Then others proved unfit. I watched them carefully, I trained them well, and when I found the slightest Haw in mind or heart I put that child aside. VVhen at last their course of preparation was complete, when I had guided them through childhood, and led them upwards through the years until they stood upon the threshold of young womanhood, then I spent long days and nights watching, studying carefully each one of those remaining in my care. Some were less kind of heart than others, some were less wise. Each day I separated one or two, until at last on that fair morning, the 19th of September, 1907, I gathered all my little band and brought them to the doors of Simmons College. A noble sight they made. Six score and two, selected from the highest types of girlhood-the finest of my thousand finest of the world. And you were one of them, my Child, you know the truth of what I say. The memory of that College Opening day will long be with you. Great thoughts Hlled your heart, lofty ambition, noble sentiments were written on your brow. And so with all the rest. It was the fairest class that ever entered through those doors, nor has it changed except to grow in charm. For one long year they struggled with new tasks. I would not have their path made easy, rather did I plan to give them sorrows and adversity. It is by this that character is formed. At night I haunted the Instructors' homes. I whispered in their ears new schemes. I made them try experiments upon you. I told them that you needed extra work. They listened and obeyed. Wliat happened then? One-fifth of all my chosen maids succumbed beneath the load. One-fifth departed for their various homes, or gave up thought of earning a degree. Four- fifths remained. The following year they entered once again, took up the fight with even greater foes. What History had been in Fresh- man year, Physics or Chemistry became-but worse, far worse, and with it other tasks which filled each day with horror and each night 58 THE MICROCOSM 1910 with dread. And through it all, I sat beside the sphere and saw therein the progress of my own, my chosen class. I also saw the weary- hearted world awaiting in hope the help so soon to come. This year was marked with one bright spot through all the clouds of gloom. That was the Sophomore Luncheon. You, my Child, with a mistaken sense of duty, stayed at home and studied French, but nearly all the rest gathered together and speedily devoured chicken and cakes. That made them happy. As they ate, they talked. Their laughter rang out loudly, peal on peal of silvery notes, until the whole wide world was gladdened by their joy. But soon it hushed. The Luncheon came upon the sixth of March, the following weeks were dark and strenuous. 'Twas study, study, study, hour by hour, pre- paring for the awful, final days. A dreadful time, my Child, a fearful time! I dared not make it easy for my girls-I knew that they must struggle for the prize. I knew that some must fail. Final examina- tions are the magic rod which separates the silver from the gold. My class must be all gold. I sent my demons-clever imps!-to watch the hearts of all the faculty. Each entered there as to his natural home, and slyly, here a word and there a touch, he bent the mighty mind to work his will. Th-ose questions all.were formed by demons' hands. With what result? A glorious result! Three-fourths of all my class survived. One-fourth were lost. I wept, but let them go. There was a long, long silence. The dying fire glowed faintly in the center of the clearing. The moon had set, the stars were growing dim. But the crystal sphere hung like a ball of flame, clear Hashes darting from its coal-black heart. Trembling, afraid, I crept up closer to her knee and whispered, But what will happen now? How many of our Class will still remain? This is our junior year. Shall we survive? Can we outlast the awful toil to come? And after that- what then ? Her face grew radiant, and in her eyes there glowed the light of high resolve. 0nly the highest, the bravest, the wisest, only the purest gold of all my band will win the prize. They will struggle-persevere- succeed. There is happiness before them. They will be famous for their beauty, wit, and grace, and I shall send a comet to watch over them, to shine upon them as a sign of their superior excellence. They will make glad the hearts of Dean and President, they will rejoice the souls of their Instructors. The Corporation shall come to look upon them as on something rare and very precious. They will be graduated with high honors and then-then shall come the mighty triumph of 59 THE MICROCOSM IQIO my life. I have chosen them, I have trained them, I shall have sent them forth into the world. There shall they overcome all wickedness. They shall reign at the head of one vast movement of reform, Their names shall be shouted from the house-topsg they shall be heralded as those who come to regenerate the world. Thousands will Hock to their standards, and we shall see the newly awakened force of woman- hood sweeping onward, irresistibly: and in advance, strong, brave, indomitable, will march the little group which I have chosen. This is your history-this is your future. Return-return to the others who are striving and tell them of the destiny awaiting them. Vtfork on- toil on-be not discouraged-for the Class of IQII cannot fail! 41 QD 1 Ackerman, D. Mildred Allen, Abbie L. Amery, Elisabeth L. Armsby, Margaret Atkinson, Leona B.

Poor deluded classifiers, they know not what a glorious thing it is to be a Sophomore. He is a being above the common herd, on a pedestal, as it were, where he has the time and pleasure to observe below him the seething mass of his fellows,-the Freshmen, trembling for fear of the sudden termination of their college careerg the Juniors, in agony from the third refusal to their prom.g the Seniors, looking madly for a job. Oh, it is almost magical to be a Sophomore. The second year is a sort of oasis in the college desert. a fresh air farm for the college slums. At least, the Sophomore breathes free and easy. Even studies do not bother him much. Uh, people, look upon us, Simmons 1912, and see true Sophomores. XN'e are a model and an object lesson. Not of reflected light, Not of refracted light, But of ourselves a light! Uh, you young Freshmen, Take an example, Call your companions, Behold Perfectiong Then when you enter Into your second year, You'll ever be thankful You followed our gleam. ln 1908, we, the class of IQI2, entered Simmons. That was the nrst event of our history-our entrance-and then nothing happened. Wle lluttered about at the Guild reception knowing no one, but never- theless busy in finding faint resemblances between certain upper class girls and certain other girls at home. Let us not now in irreverence smile as we think of the lumps that arose in our throats at that time. The weeks, however, rolled by after a very slow fashion of their 66 THE MICROCOSM IQIO own, and our Qctober class elections came. VVe travelled on rather shaky ground in those days because we did not know our classmates at all well, but some kind angel must have guided us, for we rose in a body and made Elinor VVhitney our first president. Caroline Aldrich was elected vice-president, Dorothy Stanton, secretary, and Hazel Turner, treasurer. VVe took the colors of the class of 19081 yellow and white-and chose the yellow daisy for our flower. Our first class venture was the decoration of the Chapel for the Christmas assembly. Margaret Becker was chairman of the committee on decoration and was eminently successful. tHere also let it be known that she paid the sexton for his services, even though he now disclaims all knowledge of the factj. The first social function to which we as a class were invited was the Baby Party, given by the Seniors. In our shortest frocks and our pinkest stockings, with a ridiculous volubility, we undertook to impress our hostesses. Wlietlier we acted our parts with too much naturalness or not, is still a question, yet it remains that we didn't impress them in the least. They were very nice about it, but we knew they weren't particularly en-thusiastic about us. The Juniors tried to make up for any faults of the other classes in regard to us, and always stood ready to help us at our need. They pampered us, even to giving us huge boxes of Page and Shaw's. Yet what matter if we were often treated in a kindly, sisterly, poor-thingly way, our day was yet to come when we should show them that we were the equal of any class that had as yet entered Simmons. They little dreamed that a class which had such at remarkable propensity for getting lost and appearing green, had the making of a-circus. COMING. FRESHMAN CIRCUS. MAY Ist. IT's YELLow, YoU'LL LIKE IT. And did we like it! Indeed it meant much more to us than merely a good time for an afternoon. It meant the beginning of our class spirit, the beginning of our class appreciation, and, in fact, the beginning of our class life. Vtfhat is more frolicsome than a circus in May? Wl1at more thrilling for a ring-master to say Than Down, Venus, down, and see an elephant kneel Wliile laughter arises peal after peal? What is more harrowing than a grizzly bear walking High on a tight rope, and deaf and dumb talking? Wliati more wonderful than a human-faced bird 67 THE 1v11cRocosM TIQIO And side-splitting clowns who with antics absurd Play jokes on the people and do such wild feats Tl1at Mrs. VViggs' family just jump from their seats, VVith all kinds of animals and monkeys galore Who leap-frog in air and hop on the door? What is more deafening than the grand serenade, Of Don't feed the animals. Pink lemonade. just hit the nigger and you'll get a cigar! Keep away from the wild men of Madagascarll' She eats them alive, and Keep to the right, VVhile cops in full uniform hover in sight. VVhat but a horse-race in this world is so grand While the Merry VVidow is played by the band? And what indeed is there that any may say Can exceed the delights of a real circus day? After that our social events came in thick and fast. The Sopho- mores gave us such a grand time, and such a grand lunch at Marble- head. The day, the ocean, everything was perfect. iWe are sorry not to have been able to do the same by you, 1913, but we couldn't get a date in the springtime for it. Uur crowning event, however, had not come off. lt arrived with May fourteenth and the tennis tournament. VVe, IQI2, won. Ruth Symonds was the champion of the day. She brought us to first place in the college athletics. Henceforth' our prestige was established. This year, our second year, is bound to be as glorious. To be sure we started in rather awkwardly by holding an unconstitutional election, which had to be disregarded and a second one held. Let us hope that this argumentative tendency of ours does not lead us to become suffragettes. So far, with Glenna True for president, Hilda Hough for vice-president, Harriet Bosworth for secretary and Viola Anderson for treasurer, the outlook is most satisfactory. As a class we have not as yet done very much. The Seniors entertained us royally on February ninth. We hope they realized our appreciation of their party, for we did our best to win the obstacle, potato, and fat ladies' races. In spite of our good times, the day l1ad its sadness, for we realized that we could have only a few more such good times together. It will be with genuine regret that we lose you this june, Uh, Sister Class. 68 Ida E. Adams Faythe M. Akers Caroline E. Aldrich Helen M. Aldrich Elsie R. Allen Viola Anderson Ida D. Antin Ellen D.

PELLMAN PRESIDENT DOROTHY W. HUGHITT MARION S. DONALDSON VICE-PRESIDENT SECRETARY M ARY E. BAKER TREASURER Snaliebbuts uf 1913 OCT. 27, 1910 DEAR RUTH : As a special favor I refrain from the customary please excuse me for not writing sooneru phrase. I'm here and college is fine. You just ought tohear the conductors on the Huntington Avenue cars yell, Cy-mins Collige! They appreciate it, too. Now if you won't make rude remarks about my grammatical errors I'll begin again and tell you all about it. I've learned a lot in the few weeks I've been here QI mean common things, you know, not lessonsj. VVhen the girls said there wasn't any cut-system at Simmons, I thought that meant you could cut anything you chose, but I soon found there was system, all right, in what happened to you afterwards. The only chance you get for a legitimate cut here, is when an instructor oversleeps or gets hung up in the subway, or gives you one out of the kindness of his heart. It is wise, in all cases, I have learned, to keep away from his recitation room the whole period, because once, after we waited ten minutes and the instructor didn't come, and we skipped, something prompted us to return five minutes later and peek through the keyhole. He had come, and when he saw our shadows on the door. he opened it with a beaming smile and an inviting expression like the 4'Spider and the Fly. Probably anyone but a Freshman would have refused to enter, but we were scared. I think most of the Freshmen have been in a chronic state of terror ever since they came. Those Maclachlan people in the basement began it by charging 32.75 for a Physics text-book. They must have what is called a nit-conscience, because they'll calmly inform you, just after you've given them your last cent, that you get a rebate at the end of the year. Qh, d'o you think that shows they have conscience? Well, I don'tg I think it is only a bribe-to make you think you get some- thing for nothing, which I've discovered never happens in Boston. We had a sort of test in I-Iistory the other day, and when we got our papers back, I had an L. A great many didn't know what the marks stood for, so we asked a Sophomore who was going by. She asked what the majority got and when I said 6'L's and F's, she said, Well, L's for Lovely and F's for Fine. Good work, children! We 74 THE MICROCOSM 1910 hunted for her afterwards with rolls from the lunch-room, but we never found her. Donlt wait so long as I did 'fore you write, will you? DEC. 31, 1910. DEAR RUTH: It was Freshman Day at college to-day. We call it that, you know, on account of the lunch, whenever they serve that greenish soup, cheese salad, and pistachio ice cream. The Freshmen are getting rec- ognized everywhere, now. We thought we were quite important when they asked us to decorate the Chapel Christmas, but when we had to pay 313.50 for the privilege we weren't so keen about it. And no one appreciated it, either, except the Children's Hospital, which got all the wreaths. Sometimes you feel sad to be a Freshman, and others, you're hilariously glad. We're starting out well, though, they all say. Last week--excuse me, but some one just told me there's a Physics test tomorrow. Good-bye and more later. Love to all. FEB. Io, 1910. INIY DEAR Miss: May the wrath of jupiter descend upon thy head! Blamest thou me that I cram-and cram-and cram? I amihurt and grieved that the word mid-years produces in your brain not the feeblest image of our sensations at this time. However, you are forgiven for all abuse. Really, I had to study. We all did. And now they're all over, we find that the terrible phrase in the catalogue about students who do not matriculate during the first term didn't mean a thing. They say lots of things like that to scare you, I think. You really have to work here, though. But if you did all they expected of you, there wouldn't be a thing at Simmons at all except ghosts floating around the corridors. Because you were so saucy this is all I shall write-until I receive an apology. Better send it soon if you want to hear about the good times we've had this year. IVIAR. 21, 1910. DEAR RUTH: Yours received. Apology accepted. Want to hear some great news? The Freshmen can beat all the other classes at Basket- ball! Why, of course, not all together--you know better. Think of it! A class with PINK for a class color can do this. Even Halley's 75 THE MICROCOSM IQIO comet may surprise us by really doing something now, when such a new star as '13 arouses such a commotion. All the classes had their pictures taken the other day for the Microscope, or something like that, which is a sort of college book they have every year. VVhen the ugly man took the Freshmen, some horrid Sophs got out in front and made faces at us, and the man's hat kept blowing off all the time, so we laughed and made him mad. Then he took us any old way, without trying to make it nice, and it turned out one of the best of all the pictures. That's Freshman Luck. Did I tell you about the Card List? It's a new idea of the Deans -the first horrid idea I've known her to have. If you come a minute late to class, and they don't believe your excuse at the office, they warn you that you'd better be careful. tfjf course they're too polite to tell you you lie.j Then if you do it again, they catalogue you in a drawer under A. I. Item etc., like a Hower seed advertisement circular. If you really want to see what happens next, you absent yourself unex- cused again-and then your people tell you a few thinks. This part is always pleasant, and the next step, too, when you stand on the ragged edge, with nothing to step to, really,-just waiting to be pushed off, or out. Freshmen aren't afraid to travel the way which leadeth to destruction, though, because they know how to keep off the card-list. I know a Freshman who said, They told me at the office that I was on the card-list, and desired my presence, but I didn't go to see them, so they wrote again and said they had torn it up -it meaning the card, not the office. I've arrived at the conclusion that the Freshies have a great many privileges, not granted other students. The elevator man has offered to take members of 1913 Cwho have paid class dues and signed the constitutionj to the Library for one cent apiece, every day except Sun- day. Oh, we get the benefit of everything. Even at the Glee Club concert, hardly anyone brought men except the Freshmen. Some of them had three, but they didn't pass them around outside the class- Qh, no. It was a private dance for us, with the other classes for foliage and mural effects. We enjoyed it immensely. Vacation begins Thursday, and this is the first case I've ever known of loud rejoicing over ten days. Ruh! 76 Agate, Helen G. Allin, Margaret Almy, Helen Anderson, Mary W. Annis, I.

The scope of the work of the Guild has grown, as the college to which its members give allegiance, until now the good which it might do and which it will continue to strive to do has in- creased manifestly. Fully realizing the difficulties which beset the path of an organization with such a simple and yet deeply significant purpose. we have chosen a small field in which to work and have left for the classes and clubs the more active accomplishments. Qur XYelcoming, Yisiting, and Student Aid Committees are, as the names indicate, devoted to the earnest work of making college life pleasanter and happier. The Program Committee supervises all lec- tures. entertainments and social affairs given by the Guild, and arranges the dates of all college events, posting notices of such on the Students' Calendar. The duties of the Bulletin Committee are to superintend the sale of second-hand books at the beginning of the fall term and to keep the student bulletin boards in order. For five years the Guild has been an active member of the XYomen's Intercollegiate Association for Student Government, and has sent delegates annually to the conventions of the association. The Guild dues of fifty cents, expected of every student member, meet the expenses of the delegates' trips, as also those incurred by the various committees during the year . 82 'Bfficers of tb: Stullrnt f5niIlJ Florence Trimmer Deiphine Dussossori Margaret Armsby Ruth Palmer Mary G.

And the porters who stood by the door opened unto them and each spoke a name as he passed by her. Then the fair messen- gers sped away and returned with the maidens who found everyone her own knight. There arose anon the sound of music, and dancing made the night merry. Full many an undergrad pressed her face against the window pane, eke the Senior sighed that that bright time should return to her no more. So the night passed with feasting and pleasure sans alloy. And at the stroke of twelve, the dance ceased and there were partings in sorrow. But with the morn came much weari- ness of the Hesh and with half a smile and half a tear the Junior mur- mured Never again. 98 1 910 Elunint 3IBanre Qllummittes Flora E. Dutton Marjorie C.

Although the tournament has every year aroused more and more enthusiasm, the need of an athletic organi- zation, basketball teams, and track practice has been strongly felt. This year the fitting out of a gymnasium in the new west wing of the college building marks the end of such a need. A committee is engaged in drawing up a constitution for the recently-organized Simmons Athletic Association. Class basketball teams have been formed and the first indoor meet held. Tennis courts and an athletic field are in the process of construction behind the west wing. The progress in athletics this year is largely due to the efforts of Miss Florence Diall, the instructor in physical training. Although only a beginning has been made, this has not been faint-hearted and it is easy to foresee the rapid growth of an enthusiastic athletic spirit in the next few years. 104 YA-wvvvl'-'. 4'9'!'F '7'.- 'h'h '.X M n A ,J Q Q'-TN. .- f. .wr , ' , ,,,.. ak .-mi-es. 1910 Basketball Swquall Charles K.

In a minute a thin little girl with yellow hair is seen crouching timdly against the bulletin board. A blue flannel dress clings about her spare little figure. CThis has the advantage of following the fashion and enhancing the pathos.J She comes forward falteringly and sings the touching child ballad: WO1lit somebody be kind to me? I'm very small, I know, But the College Grads and Specials They shove and hurt me so, They shove and hurt me so, They shove and 'hurt me so, Oh, the College Grads and Specials, They shove and hurt me so. CThis unique opening is expected to take with the audience. They will probably express their appreciation by wiping their eyes on the back of one hand and clapping enthusiastically with the otherf just as she finishes, a gay bunch of faculty dashes in, dressed in the con- ventional business costume. The gentlemen are wearing their favorite IIO THE MICROCOSM 1910 neckties. The leader of the chorus approaches the College Spirit and grasping her shoulder roughly, says: How did you wander in here, my good waif? This is the wro-ng number. Seek succour elsewhere. C. S. exit, crying bitterly. Leader steps to the front and sings in a haughty baritone. A Basketball with Radcliffe! A preposterous idea! It would lead the girls to holler It's not ladylike to cheer. Besides they might be recognized- Their movements might be traced, And if Snommis girls should spotted be Snommis would be disgraced. After this they execute a short skirt dance and go off right. just as the last one disappears with a coquettish kick, a bare-headed girl wearing a dark red sweater land some other thingsj peeps around the corner. She comes tip-toeing cautiously on while the orchestra plays startled music, after looking about, she beckons to her companions who come running in, all bare-headed and in sweaters. The first girl sings the solo of Dont Tell Them That You Saw Us and Wie Didn't Have a Hatf, QAS this show is not of the variety generally patronized by friends of the college, we trust the chorus is safej. Every other line the drums bang and the chorus jump back on their toes alert and listening. As an encore, the girls, having effected lightning changes, come on in gym suits and do a neat fencing dance, very difficult and complicated, which ought to bring down the house with the curtain. ACT TWO ' The curtain rises on a secretarial room in Snommis College. Un the stage Hoof are seen six mammoth typewriters and beside each machine an enormous, powerful-looking eraser. Almost immediately Mr. Oldhill appears at centre, comes down to the front of the stage and strikes an attitude, with right forefinger warningly raised. The orchestra plays a bar and he sings in a hypnotic tenor, lf You Don't Have Forty Hours You Will Never Graduate. At the end of the second stanza commotion is heard from the direction of the typewriter on the extreme right, and the keys begin to jump at a furious rate. Pretty soon the bell rings and a tiny messenger boy enters, takes a telegram Cautomatically folded and sealedj from the machine and runs across with it to Mr. Oldhill, who stands spellbound with astonishment, III THE MICROCGSM IQIO finger still in mid-air. He takes the telegram, and forgetting to drop finger, dexterously opens it with his left hand and his teeth. The audi- ence waits tensely until he begins to read in a dazed fashion, Cut it out. You look like P. Brooks trying to hail the car in front of Trinity. The actor, after a minute, crumples the paper furiously, drops his right hand, fingers opening and shutting with rage, and gives villain- ous glances at the daring typewriter. He is to be diverted from his wrath, however, by the applause of the audience QThis is a precarious moment for the managers. If the audience shouldn't applaud, no one knows what would liappenl which serves to produce a bow and a smile and the third stanza. Exit, singing the chorus. As he goes out, the typewriters and erarcrs arise and come forward and are seen to be the same chorus girls of the last act, got up in clever disguise. An eraser starts a pandemonium lgy touching a typewriter and squealing Tag This is the signal for a rolicking, unconventional dance, which goes on to orchestra accompaniment until one of the Smiths cries, You can't touch me, I've got my wires crossed. They form for a modernized Yirginia Reel to tlie tune of Erase VVhene'er You Want To,But Be Sure You Don't Get Caught, and the curtain falls on the second act. ACT THREE The third act reveals a scene triumphantly laid in a Library Science room. A good deal of cackling is going on. A unique effect is gained by the device of having the chorus seated at desks. Local color is added by a poignant mixed odor of library paste and black ink. Each of the chorus is armed with a size ruler and a volume of the Library journal. A library Senior enters from the left and approaches a desk occupied by a C. G. The following dialogue ensues: ' C. G., keeping on with the task in which she is absorbed: Am I in your way ? Senior, giving contortionist exhibition in attempt to open top drawer: Ch, no! Don't move. A C. G. politely complies with this request. C. G. waxes communicative: How much History of 'Libraries have you read ?', Senior, out of breath: Eighteen hours. C. G., tragically: Heavens, woman, when P Senior, taciturnly: Second period this morning. Senior gives up attempt to get a book from the drawer, comes to the front and sings with feeling, 112 THE MICRGCOSM IQIO When the College Grads have left us, Genevieve, There'll be nothing here that's really it to leave. We'll be dead, I have no doubt And the front seats all worn out, When the College Grads have left us, Genevieve. C. G., petulantly: This morning I had to waste forty-eight sec- onds on the front stoop before they opened the college door. And I didn't half finish my egg at breakfastf' Miss Sparrow, strolling in, catches last words, comes sternly to front and sings with force, Avoid Egg For Breakfast, Gr You'll Never Get a Job. Seniors join in the chorus and the act closes spiritedly. ACT FOUR The fourth act is short but tense. The scene is the Household Economics Cooking Laboratory. The chorus wear aprons and carry mixing bowls and spoons. All are on one knee tone apiecej in an anxious semi-circle around the stove. A cooking instructor enters, comes down, opens the oven door, takes out a magnificent smelly struc- ture which she bisects. The semi-circle still anxious. The instructor scans the bisected structure and' sings, lt's very stylish outside, but itls awful gooey in, You must have breathed too heavy when you put it in the tin. If you ate this, you would die, Have a care next time you try, For it's very stylish outside, but it's awful gooey in. The chorus faints in a body and the curtain drops. ACT FIVE Scene same as in Act I. Miss Nolarnd, who was among the fac- ulty chorus in the first act, but had no speaking part, appears again as leader of the faculty chorus and comes down the stage singing that famous number in which humor and pathos are so cleverly mixed, There'll Be Lots of Empty Places Wheii the Marks Come Out. The chorus girls, in quaint, loose robes, besprinkled with birds, flowers, insects and what not, and wearing Turkish towels bound Grecian-wise below their pompadours, approach slowly with spiritless totter from right centre, disport with seeming carelessness opposite faculty chorus and sing with subd-ued sadness the ballad, We've Been Boning Forty Minutes But It Aint No Usef' During the last stanza they all fall gradually asleep, the singing trails off into humming and finally de- II3 M1cRocosM IQIO velopes into snoring. just before the final rendition of the refrain the familiar moving-picture-show commandment is thrown upon a screen. All join in on the chorus. The scene should close effectively with audience and actors snoring rhythmically to dreamy orchestra music. lThe curtain falls to indicate an elapse of four weeks.j SCENE II The curtain rises on the last scene and discovers the faculty chorus and the rejuvenated but meagre student chorus on opposite sides of the Stage. The latter sings. Some say the ranks were high, And some say the ranks were low, But anyhow the ranks are rather thin. Still, we're cheerful now about it And you surely cannot doubt it, When you see the college spirit in our grin. I College Spirit comes clambering in with one finger in her timid but friendly smile. She is unaccountably transformed into a healthy Mellins Food specimen. She turns towards the girls and they welcome her with true feminine cordiality and spontaneous outbursts of affec- tion. CThe act is marvellous in emotional intensity and deserves highest mentionj. During this demonstration, the faculty exhibit an expres- sion first of disapproval and then of reluctant assent. Finally one sees in their fa-ces the realization of the fact that the chosen few remaining are worthy to educate and advance the College Spirit. A smile of benign and gracious approbation Hits across the countenance of Miss Nolarnd as she raises aloft the child, singing the old-time favorite, Hail to Thee, Blithe Spirit. The curtain falls on a tableau. A FRESH MAN FROLIC The ummutefs Refrain We have hung on a strap together, And swayed with the lurching car. We have run the gamut of weather In trips from near and far. On the Fenway, oh, the Fenway, On a blistering summer day, When the sun beats down sans pity And the dust blows thick and gray. We have started in early morning And raced for the train we know Leaves time to escape the warning That waits for those who are slow. On the Fenway, oh, the Fenway, On a blustering winter day When the snow whirls high in fury And the tortured bushes sway. We have felt the old spring longing On a fragrant April day. We have heard the autos gouging. And the fragrance went away. Ou the Fenway. oh, the Fenway, Cn a near vacation day, VVhen the birds sing high and gleeful And the world says Come and play. WHY, WHY! Miss I-LxRR1NtsToN: VVhat's the matter with 'yours truly'? MRS ELDRIDGE Qhastilyl : Nothing! IDENTDFYING IT Miss ROBERTS: What kind of a clock?', DR. UND12RwooD: Oh, like the one on the wall-tame clock- domestic clock, you know. BARGAINING Miss JACOBS: ln the exam shall we have to write samples of all the themes we've ever written ? DR. HANFORD: Oh, no, only remnants. II5 Qhmissinns tram the urriwlum BY A WELL-WISHER We hear from those well qualified to speak from experience, that a new exercise entitled Two Hours Daily Work with the Burroughs Adding Machine, has recently been introduced into the Secretarial School. Well, it was high time. The pressure on the lever of this machine is something like ten pounds to the square inch, and in operat- ing it steadily for one hundred and twenty minutes without a pause, guarded by one of the vigilant VVatch-Dogs of the Secretarial Depart- ment, it forms a pleasant little relaxation on a spring afternoon as a climax to a day of strenuous application on the classical and technical end of the course, besides being a nerve and muscle strengthener of no mean dimensions. As we take our somewhat stubby lead pencil in hand to pen this article, a telegram comes in from the camp of that greatest American of modern times, Mr. James Jeffries, future defender of the supremacy of the white race, to the following effect: Can Jeff come back? We-ll, we guess yes. The Burroughs Add- ing Machine has done it. Credit where it is due. Two weeks ago, Mr. Jeffries weighed 350 lbs., was weak as an infant, muscles Habby as cotton-batting. The Burroughs Adding Machine was brought into camp on a dray drawn by eight large army mules, and hailed by Jeff and his trainers with buoyant satisfaction. Now see what the B. A. M. has accomplished in a fortnight. To-day, Mr. Jeffries weighs only IO5 lbs., is able to read an account of a day's work at Simmons College without visible signs of exhaustion, and his biceps measure, in repose, 24 1-2 inches. Send us another. All this is interesting and to the point, but why do we stop here? Are there not other equally needed innovations? Let us consider the not at all remote contingency of a Simmons Graduate, having survived the college training table and the rigors of the Back Bay climate, ac- cepting a position with one of the big ship-building concerns. Now, in the matter of pounding rivets on an armored cruiser, would she not be considered deficient in experience? It seems to us that a counterfeit iron deck could easily be planned on the top of Mrs. Gardner's Museum of Fine Arts, from which one of our adaptable and omnipotent faculty could easily toss a white-hot rivet to be caught between large tongs by a pupil of the Secretarial Department, and rapidly pounded into the 116 THE MICROCOSM IQIO South end of the building, which for the purpose should have a light staging erected. In the winter, mittens should be worn for this work. Again, presupposing the unoffending graduate to have taken a position with the city. The question naturally arises: Is her pick- and-shovel work up to the Chautauqua standard? Has better, speedier, more efficient work been done elsewhere? Can she mentally plan and physically execute a trench in less time than the untutored Dago? Has she done it, not once but constantly during her college career? Dear me, no, overlooked completely. Cf course, one poor faculty cannot adequately supply the missing links among all the students' faculties, but will they not consider before another year, the following supplementary Senior subjects: 1. Invention, construction, and application of the cotton-gin, printing-press, and spinning-jenny. 2. Direction and practical demonstration of the use of the steam- roller, sub-divided into three courses: A. Stone-crushing. B. Road-rolling. C. Firing and cleaning engine on aforesaid machine. We trust these suggestions will not be brushed lightly aside, for wh-en on the high road to perfect efficiency, push on to the goal, heeding not mental fatigue, physical exhaustion, muscular paralysis, dire mis- fortune, fatal disease, nay, pause not, in danger of being put on the card catalogue, for Death itself. sl I 117 Slips ann Slimmer lNsTRUCToG: Why did you close the window?

Courtesy repressed the answer, Truth compelled her to keep silence, But the courtesy of the Seniors Was not equal to such straining, Burst they into gleeful laughter, Burst they into shaking giggles, VVell,. oh well, they know the answer, Nothing cryptic to that riddle, Not a bit of doubt about it. Later they encountered questions, Deep and darksome, all-embracing Infinite in chance for thinking- Questions awesome and terrific, Problems such as these that follow: Is the green wall green or yellow ?' D'o I see a desk before me ? CSaid in agitated manner Quite as tragic as Macbeth's wordsj Will the chalk fall if I drop it- Will it fall or stay in mid-air ?

If you can't get time to come in, be sure to look in. That is quite as efficacious. 2. Don't hesitate in the least to use all the pillows. Girls who feel really ill do not realize whether they have one or not. 3. Please throw all your books on the Hoor, one by one, taking as long as you please about it. It creates an ideal atmosphere for rest. 4. Scrape and haul your chair about often, turn leaves of books loudly, and sigh deeply at intervals of live seconds. 5. If a friend should be present, converse volubly with her across the room over various humorous outside subjects. Those studying are interested and can think better. 6. When ready to leave, excite interest in your actions and arouse commotion by singing, dancing, etc. 7. Always slam the door. Those d-isobeying final injunction, No. 7, will be fined and forbidden use of rest room during the remainder of the college year.

At once I thought of the way VVordsworth himself would have treated such a subject, and hence the following, which I consider one of the most spiritual of my compositions. The day outside is warm and bright, I,et's leave our studies gloomy, And in the sunshine and the light, Enjoy the Fenway roomy! Cf VVordsworth's teachings then have donel Let's put them into being! And in the warm and pleasant sun, All nature's joy be seeing. Well watch the swans gaily disport Un Muddy Rivers breastg Their raptures shall our fancy court- But, Ah! the Dump is best! For there the junkman mildly glad, Pursues his humble trade. And I confess I'm almost sad To see what finds he's made. One lesson, junkman, every day You unto us may give- If no one threw such junk away, How could the junkmen live? EXAM TIME Our Honor System faith abounding has. Some schools employ the wily proctor's art. But, no, they frust us, and to prove this so, - They place all chairs at least ten feet apart.

The above caption, as of course nearly everybody knows now, is abbreviation of Simmons Annual Anthology, the first volume of which, culled from the inedited metrical effusions of the Qflicers of Instruction and Administration, is shortly to appear. This notice, which is to serve as a preliminary announcement, is an account of part of my Odyssey, as editor-in-chief in quest of material, and it is intended to give an idea of the difficulties and perils attending the endeavor as well as a sample of the contents of the Anthology. Wlieii I went to the President for copy, my speech was all ready. Dr, Bolton tells me you have a faculty for writing verse, I said. I have, he acknowledged. Will you give me something for the Anthology P No, he replied, I haven't time. Why should I write verse, when, as you say, I have a Faculty for it? Go to the Faculty. Next. The President smiled, but the atmosphere was wintry as his answer was summary. It seemed unseasonable to stay longer. I took the proffered advice and went to the Faculty. At the Dean's office I was told I could not have an interview until eighteen minutes past three the following Thursday, and I must be punctual as the Dean had another appointment at 3.19 and a tea at 3.20. I started to drop in on the German department, but music halted me: a trio-soprano, barytone and tenor-was rendering strange words to a familiar air. Blessing Professor Eldridge and the whole German department for my two- edged training, I stopped and took down the words in shorthand. I transcribe here only the refrain: Liebchen du, Hore mal zu: Ich wage nicht nach Hause nachts zu gehen An allen Tagen Die Zeitungen sagen: HDIEBSTAI-IL IM PARK GESCHEHEN gn Drum sass ich allein in dem Y. M. C. A. Singend wie tausend Krahen: Es giebt kein Platz wie zu Hause, Aber nachts wag' ich nicht dahin gehen. Involuntarily I applauded, though the door remained closed. There was a prompt response: W 135 THE MICROCOSM IQIO Ringe um die Finger, Schellen an den Zehen, Elefanten zur Spazierenfahrt wohin ich auch mag gehen, So komm- Es sind aber nicht Schellen, interrupted Herr Professor Gross- mann. Es sind lieber Klingeln, nicht wahr, Eraulein? XVeder lilingeln noch Schellen, was the answer. Glocken sind esg wenn man von hinreichender Grosse ist, Elefanten zum Spazierfahren benut- zen zu kc-niien, so hat man selbstverstandlich Zehen von einer aus- serordentlicheniu Professor Nichols interceded: Die Walirlieit liegt zwischenin But I was looking for Dichtung, not Wfahrheit, so naturally I passed on to the Romance department. Professor Good- ell was asking Madame Mottet how many hospitals there were, approximately, in La Eerte-sous jouarre in 1768. Madame blushed enough to match the wattles of her Chantecler hat. I really can't reinemlgerf' she said. I said: Professor Goodell, I want a poem for the Anthology. Certainly, he replied obligingly, Epic, elegiac or lymric? Sit down at the typewriter: I'll dictate. Make it local, I said, but not about the dump. CYou know there's been literature enough written about the dump to fill it upl. Give us another side of Simmons: Ruggles Street, for instance. Very well, he said, and began dictating: I know a kind policeman who ' Patrols on Ruggles Street, l call his club a billy doux, In His round a sugar beat. He's friendly from his stubby toe Up to his helmet's brim, ' He never takes me up, although Q2 I'm taken up with him. NN'hen life at Simmons loses zest, I sally forth to see I My copper make a kind arrest- It is a rest for me. And yet, though curiosity ls thought a deadly sin, 'SN Q. h Whenever I run out to see ii He never runs me in. 136 THE MICROCOSM IQIO Sometimes we quaff the foamy cheer A Before he goes his round, Une day Qalaslj they'll take his bier To Copps I-Iill burying-ground. I stopped him there. I hold the record for speed from dictation, but it wasn't up to the fine frenzy of Professor Goodell's impromptusg moreover, I was shocked at the implication of thelast stanza and I remonstrated. The beer P he asked. Poetic licence. And he ex- plained that unusual latitude might be conceded to one who spends his weeks at Simmons and his week-ends in Maine. I went on. I stopped at the biology office, but it was vacant. In the class-room beyond, however, written on the blackboard in a familiar and legible hand was the following: POX BQBUSCUM Of the germs of disease he was warned, But he ate of the beef that was corned: Don't mock at the plight Of the innocent wight- He is more to be pitted than scorned. There are nature-fakers outside of the philosophy courses. I erased this awful thing, but First I made a fair copy. A quartet from the choir was practicing 50170 T060 in the corridor near the chemistry department. It's melodious, but then so does the chemistry department, I thought in familiar Holmespun. I listened for the words: Ev'ry morn we send him violets- I understood. Death loves a shining Mark, you know, but Simmons needs him more. Inside the oflice I asked for poetry. Sure, said Professor Norris, anything you like. Tell muh, then, I murmured, the story of your lifeg we all know that under the deep masque of melancholy you always wear, lies the bitter tragedy of a thwarted career. Wliat are your soulful yearnings? VVhat- That'll do, he said, I see what you mean. And he went on' I sometimes think I wish I might Have been another man, Reputed as a shining light And not an also ran: But when to one my wish I curb, Some snake is lurking in the herb. T37 THE MICRGCOSM 1910 I'd like to be a Socrates, A lake of lavish lore, VVith pupils prostrate at my knees, Disciples by the score: But Xantippe! and then I'd hate To take my stein of hemlock straight. Sometimes the fancy strikes me that I'll play Napoleon And knock down kingdoms with my bat To see the kinglets run: But Saint Helena is so far From Boston where my interests are. And other times I think that I Should like to be a Nero And fiddle at the firelit sky Like some Wagnerian hero: But though an operatic star They say he Wasn't popular. Here the Professor was stopped by a girl with a test-tube and an appealing voice. Dr, Evans will continue the yearns for you, he siaidg the efficiency of our department depends on the adaptibility of each of its members, at any time, to supply the place of any other. Dr. Evans adjusted his carmine cravat and continued: Sometimes I think I should prefer To be like Julius Caesar, He fought and wrote and made a stir, The versatile old geezer: But when Tu Brute thought him gay His finish vvasn't far away. 138 THE MICROCOSM 1910 And then again I cast my vote For Shakespeare too, at times: He was a poacher and he wrote Some very clever rhymes: But then I might get thirty days. And maybe Bacon wrote the plays. ,H . I ' 1. .-' ' lx , Q -N 'ifv Q ' filiigx team- 13 vii- -1, on A . - . . Q Sometimes like VVashington I've planned Such little stunts as these: To be the father of the land And cut down cherry-trees: But Georgie never told a lie, He must be lonely in the sky. The more I think of it, the more I think I'd rather be No demi-godhead to adore, But only little me: There is this argument beside: I couldn't help it if I tried. If I consulted only my own feelings, I should suppress what hap- pened to me in the English department. It was there Qsince candor bids me tell alll that I counted on my masterpiece, and might have got it: but I had now developed a certain confidence which, for once, O'ot Z5 the better of my tact, for I said breezily to Dr. Hanford: I've come 139 1. THE MICROCOSM 1910 to see you, Prof., about some poetry for the Anthologyf, That's enough, he said. If you ever call anyone 'Prof.' again, I hope you may not get off as easily as, by grace of your cosmic ignorance, you are going to get off this time. 'Proff may stand for Professor, but I have never known any professor who would stand for 'Proff Good afternoon. I only got over this blow in time to keep my Thursday appointment with the Dean. She received me affably, but regretted that discretion, not to say exp-ediency, prompted her to withold temporarily certain con- tributions which under happier auguries and not impossible eventual circumstances she might divert to the uses of the Anthology, which enterprise she emphatically, even enthusiastically, indorsed. Then she Saw that I was disappointed and that there were only seven seconds left. On second thought, though, she beamed, here is the manu- script of some verses left here by Mr. Walliani Witsoii, who passed through incognito last month and gave me this l'lIZ1fll'6.S'Sf07Z dc' voyage. Though not in the ultimate analysis an indigenous product, its inspira- tion is local-indeed, this office would be grateful if its publicity could throw some light on the identity of the cryptically anonymous protagonists-Miss Blank, I sent for you to ask- The Dean was keeping her 3.19 appointment and I sidled out to read the manuscript She had handed me: Professor X., who has a taking way tHe thinksl, was strolling with a somewhat young Blithe junior, when he heard a Freshman say: There goes the woman with the serpent's tongue. The soft and smug professor turned his head fThe only head he'd ever turned, I fearj And to his fair companion sweetly said: I note you have a reputation here. She murmured lightly: Were your hearing good Gr if you knew your sobriquet among Your loving pupils, you'd have understood: t 'There goes a woman with the serpent. Stungl' The question of identification, I leave an open one. The Anthology, shortly to appear, comprises about four hundred poems, including Ye mariners of England, acknowledged by both Doctors Campbell-when doctors disagree, we don't decide-love sonnets of a stenographer, 140 THE Miciaocosivi IQIO teditedl by Professor Eldridgeg the prologue to a comic opera by Professor Parkerg The Call of the Dump, or the Summons to Simmons -joint effort of the committee on admission-and this is but a random selection of average merit. The Anthology will be sold by subscription only and orders may be left with any member of the editorial board of the Microcosm.

You can carry it anywhere and in any position the absolute assurance that it will not leak. When the pen point is ulled down into the barrel and the cap properly adjusted, the ink becomes incased in an air-tight and ink-tight chamber, thus making leakage utterly impossible. By this simple operation the pen point l rests in ink, and is allready for instant use without requiring the pre- liminary shaking so common with fountain pens. Moore's is the easiest of pens to till. Simply unscrew the cap and it is ready to Gil, no joints to unscrew or parts to take olf. Styles and sizes to suit all tutes and purses. 52.50, 53.50 and up.
