Were Ponce de Leon to come back to earth today, he would find at our College the Fountain of Perpetual Youth. Our College today is no older than when founded a quarter of a century ago. Each year the same Stream of Youth flows into and through its halls,-a rippling stream of buoyant spirits, of sparkling eyes that look into far lands, where fountains never fail and youth never grows old. On the banks of this stream, grows the tree of life, and the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. XVe, who sit by, as the gladsome stream flows on, can never grow old. Each autumn the clear stream brings us a deep draft of the elixir of life, from the Fountain of Youth, far up in the enchanted woods, on the mountain side. O ye tidal years that roll over us allfbe kind! Leave, oh leave us bright the burnished gold of joy, and the rainbow colors of our youth! Class of 1918, when you have gone forth into the old, cold world, come ye back often to Young Alma Mater. Sit by the banks of her Stream of Youth. Drink again of her cooling waters, that refresh, that re-create, that awaken memories which thrill backward and start an echo in the living past. Class of Nineteen-Twenty-Eight, Come back, come back! Grow young along with me! The best is yet to be. 1 VIRGINIA MAY BRITTING Trexidefzr of 331121110115 College tftzmlefzz' q0U61'7Zl7267Zf ulrrormtian September 19, 197.7 to February I3, 1918 For three and one-half years, 192.8 has followed the leadership of Virginia Britting. When she came to Simmons as a freshman, the class with rare good judgment, charmed by her straightforwardness and modesty in popularity, elected her to Student Govern- ment Council. When she left us, she was holding the most responsible ofhce that the College has to offer, President of Student Government, and she assumed the responsibility of this office with a grace and dignity that was unsurpassed. She had the gift of leadership and the class took her advice, undertook unpleasant tasks for her, and accepted its punishment from her, willingly, not only because of a consummate tact in her, but because it placed inlinite faith in her sincerity and kindness. Loyal to everything that could ask loyalty of her, conscientious within the bounds of common sense, Simmons and 1918 are proud to point her out as one of theirs.

PIPER An old mang he whose days of worth are done, Day after day sits silently, and still And watches listlessly the surging tides That quietly slip inkthen out again Into the grayness of the sea, to splash ln foamy whiteness 'gainst the cold, gray stones That guard the rocky cove from end to end. He watches, from his steps, the fishing docks Where fishermen their nets stretch out to dry, And stubby little dories bob and swing On ceaseless white fringed waves that lap the shore. Sometimes he walks along the pebbled beach And stops, to hear the tales that these men tell. He shakes his head and knows that he has known Rare sights that they shall never see, or know, The crowded wharves at Singapore, the heat Of tropic skiesg the throngs of many races And the cry of many tongues. But now his happy useful days are gone And he may only sit, and dream, and watch The petty lishing smacks unload their catch. While out beyond the mirror-surfaced cove The great ships pass like sentinels at night, Or groups of stars against the blackness of the sea. He sighs, and dreams of that which might have been. 154 MN H, Kxbbc hz EL S ui an I: L. C-'D D 5 'E u .: lt' rx I2 A. Burr H. 1928 ORGANIZATIONS Student Government Qfirxocmfion Prefidefzt . . . .

Since We are governing ourselves we should feel that we are responsible for the kind of rules enacted, the way they are obeyed, and for the morale of the College as a Whole. We can cooperate by doing our share of the work as individuals, and by assisting our representatives whenever We are asked to do so. Student Government is a stepping stone for the future. It gives us all an equal opportunity to show good judgment, to exercise the power of self-government, and to prepare for our recently acquired privilege of taking part in the political affairs of the country. It is a stepping stone of which we are exceedingly proud, not just be- cause of the advantages it offers to the individual, but because of the wonderful spirit of loyalty and love it has created in the College. 157 M, Abbott E.

If any decision or change is made in the rules it is taken to Student Government Council to be approved, and from there it is taken to Conference Committee for ratification before it becomes a rule. The meetings of Dormitory Council are held every other week. The Committee has succeeded thus far in keeping the rules general as adopted under the Simmons Code, and has made only very minor variations in interpretations. Because of the cooperation of the student body the Code has proved satisfactory. 159 THE MICRGCOSM 1928 A. Barchclder V. Britting Dr. Steiger H.

Its work consists of dealing with all cases in which there has been the breaking of a Student Government or Academic rule, passing its recommendations to Dis- ciplinary Committee of the Faculty, if the case is academic, or to Conference Com- mittee if the case is dormitory. They in turn act on the recommendation. The offender always appears before the Board at the time her case is brought up and is given a chance to defend herself. The Board is composed of nine members: the four class presidents, a Sophomore and a Junior representative of Student Government Council and the Chairman, a Senior representative who is elected by the student body. The President and Vice-President of Student Government are ex-officio members. Judicial Board does not exist solely for the purpose of enforcing rulesg it aims to enlarge our concepts of responsibility so that we may be more Worthy of the privilege of self-government. 161 THE MICROCOSM 1928 M.

Lois PIPER At last, Academy, the honorary society of Simmons, seems to be realizing the hopes of its former members. No longer is it thought of as a society whose membership does not recompense for the effort expended. Realization has been awakened that a deep and real interest in the work at hand is sure to bring the coveted invitation. The result is that the society has become larger and more active without a lowering of its standards. One of the new policies this year has been the placing of information concerning Academy before the rest of the student body through the channels of the Newt, Reviezv, Poster Committee, and Bulletin Board. The monthly closed meetings have aroused much interest due to the kind cooperation found among the faculty members in providing interesting meetings. As usual, the three open meetings were featured and outside speakers were obtained. This is the first year that undergraduate members have enjoyed a period of active membership. With this background, however, they should carry on the work next year which will prove that Academy serves the purpose in Simmons of fostering an interest in academic and cultural studies. 162 1928 ORGANIZATIONS H.

A. pledge which has been used in the membership campaign this year fitly expresses the aim of the organization- To realize full' and creative life through a growing understanding of God. But God or the Purpose behind the universe is best understood through a continually broadening sympathy for others and a greater understanding of their problems. College life does a great deal toward cultivating a vital interest in all that goes on around us. The Y. W. C. A. hopes to further this educative process by making possible new and broader social contacts, thereby giving a new insight into life and a greater understanding of God. Speakers such as Dr. Kirtley Mather ofl-Iarvard, Dr. Lovett ofMt.Vernon Church, and Alice Brown of the National Board of the Y. W. C. A., have given an impetus to our thinkingg the conferences at Maqua, Poland Springs, and Detroit opened up to many the possible richness of life and the greatness of our own resources. The all-college teas every week at the Metropolitan Headquarters at 5oo Boylston Street, composed of students from all the big Boston colleges, afforded chances for more than superficial acquaintance. There is another part of the pledge that is indispensable to the Y. W. C. A. which is the reason for its being. In this task Qof livingD we seek to understand Jesus and to follow Him. Bible and discussion groups have helped us to know more about the life ofjesus. Social service, club work, friendships with girls less fortunate than we, boxes at Christmas time for the poor, house parties at Woburn, parties at Dr. Holt's, and the faculty baseball game are just a few of the things that make Y. W. C. A. such fun as well as so worthwhile. 163 THE MICROCOSM 1928 R. Whelan H, l-lolrnn Ellen 'Kichaffdf Club Prerident ........... HILDA MAY HoL'roN .Yecretmjy-Tremurer ......... RUTH F.

Its membership includes Juniors and Seniors in the School of General Science and Seniors from the other schools who are majoring in biology, chemistry, or physics. Members of the faculty in the Science Department are included as honorary members, several of them having been active members during their student days at Simmons. In addition to the annual picnic in the fall and the birthday party in the spring, several open meetings are held at which addresses are given by outstanding figures in the scientific world. This year, closer cooperation has been made with the Home Economics Club, which has a common interest in Ellen Richards, whose name the club has taken. Although the admission requirements make the organization small, it is steadily growing. We hope that it will continue to do so, and that it will keep that spirit of comradeship which has distinguished it so far. 164 1928 ORGANIZATIONS R, McCormack C. McDonald A.

This group is reaching out for all liberal thought, and welcomes both girls and faculty to the open meetings held in North Hall. There is usually a speaker at these gatherings, such as Miles Hanson, Jr., who is well known in Boston. It is not uncommon to see either Mrs. Payne or Miss Goodrich behind the tea pot on such occasions. Simmons' night at the Town and Gown Club was acclaimed a great success, especially in the line of elimination dances. The Deerfield Conference is another activity of the Young Pe-ople's Religious Union in which Simmons Unitarians have participated. It is the purpose of the Club to bring all the Religious Liberals at Simmons to- gether for mutual friendship and the exchange of ideas. 165 THE MICROCOSM 1928 Cb7 ifllZi6l7Z Science 50026131 Reader . .

It is a member of the National Federation of College Catholic Clubs and thus afhliated with all the New England College Clubs and those throughout the United States. The Newman dance, bridge, open meetings and teas are now practically institutions in College that are looked forward to and enjoyed by all. The purpose of the Club is to bring together the Catholics of Simmons in religious, educational, and social activities. To this end the Club invites prominent and in- teresting speakers. The meetings are held the third Thursday of every month, to which a speaker or the Chaplain is usually invited. This year the Club members have been most active and helpful in aiding the ofhcers to attain high standards and ideals worthy of their noble patron, Cardinal Newman. 167 THE MICROCOSM 1928 F.

The purpose of Menorah is the study and advancement of Hebrew ideas and culture, to stimulate a deeper and keener interest in things Jewish, through study circles and lectures. We also aim to develop closer friendship and loyalty among our members. The true initiates will find themselves in contact with all the romance and poign- ancy of Jewish tradition, with all the inspiring activity of modern Jewish life, a study of which will afford an adequate basis for future participation. Our symbol is the Menorah candlestick-a symbol of perpetual light-standing for the past glories, the undying spirit through defeat, and the renaissance of Jewish culture. It is earnestly hoped that the future members will be worthy upholders of this symbol of light and try always to keep the Menorah ideals lofty. 168 1928 ORGANIZATIONS L H.T .fll , c. Ea flfn M.

In addition it is now running an exchange with practically all the other large colleges in the East. The Nezw desires most particularly to add to its staff under-classmen who have recently come from other school paper staffs, for their seasoned experience, and new recruits, who are interested in work, for their enthusiasm. In all ways The Nezur hopes to continue to be vitally alive to the college. A newspaper is perhaps the most worth- while of all undergraduate endeavors to be sophisticated. Because of the size of the College, Simmons should be able to support a large newssheet, and have it filled with material which pertains entirely to school affairs. The staff suggests that next year, if it has the backing of the student body, TbeNeu'f will make its bow in a larger and broader edition. 170 1928 ORGANIZATIONS L. Piper H. Hunt C. Barchcldcr R.

Faculzjf Advirer In the early days of female colleges, Mr. Ryan, Editor of the Bagan Herald, tells us that newspapers looked upon the college woman as a sort of disembodied person, whose activities, highly intellectual in nature, could be of no interest to the reading public. With the introduction of athletics and the consequent pictures, however, student activities came to be regarded as news, and since that time college news has had an assured place in newspapers. In order to satisfy the demands of the papers and yet give only the finest type of news, college press boards were formed in all the women's colleges, and today occupy an increasingly important place among student organizations. This year the Simmons Press Board, consisting of the reporters for the Boston papers, has attempted to organize a sub-Press Board which will contribute news items to home town papers. While the smaller papers offer little remuneration the experience prepares the reporters for a place on the regular Press Board and helps to extend Simmons publicity. The clipping service, linanced by Student Government, collects news items from papers all over the United States, and on the Press Bulletin Board will be found news of students, faculty and alumnae. Like every other organization, we are looking forward to the Utopian days of the new wing, when we shall have a little space to call our own, where we may keep our typewriters and equipment. 172 1928 ORGANIZATIONS Student Forum Clmirzzzmz, DOROTHY LAWRENCE Forum, according to Vllebster, means a public gathering. Each time a Forum has been scheduled we have wondered if it might prove to be a private gathering of an exclusive few. But somehow Forum has held its own against the competition of the many social and business interests which call us all. This year we discovered Mr. Beals of the Port, who visited all our dorms and gave us news of all the plays and players we ever heard of or never heard of before. Madame Tamanoff too was generous and visited us all, winning our hearts as usual. Dr. Varrell gave us in an hour the current events we had all lost track of during the summer. Miss Babcock and Dr. Gay read and dis- cussed poetry with the Freshmen and Sophomores. Clayton Hamilton reproached us women for the falling standards of the theatre, in a delightful talk. We resolved to support all the good plays and only the good ones. Dr. Harley provided a most exciting evening with a talk on Companion- atc Marriage. The discussion waxed hot and continued in many groups all over the College for some time after. Miss Gertrude Ely and Vincent Burns touched on the Political and Eco- nomic lields. Miss Ely's enthusiastic talk made us all feel we should be satisfied with nothing less than the Presidential ohice in our political strivings. The most gratifying result of the year's efforts has been the response of the girls themselves in questioning and discussing the subjects brought up. It is still to be regretted, however, that all the girls do not appreciate the value of Forum, and it does not have the hundred per cent. support it deserves. 173 THE MICROCOSM 1928 F. Zink R.

This aim is accomp- lished by afililiation with the Massachusetts, New England and American Home Economics Associationsg by monthly meetings at which speakers tell about their work in various fields and answer questions, and by sending a member of the Junior class as delegate to the annual National Home Economics Convention. This was a new project last year and we plan to carry it on in the future. The Club is linanced by the club members, who conduct food sales in the dormi- tories and at Hall Table, also by a subscription dance given in the fall term. In addi- tion to sending a delegate to the National Convention this also enables us to carry membership in the National Association, and contribute to the Ellen Richards Fund. The Club year was concluded with a tea given in honor of Miss Marjorie Heseltine, a Simmons graduate, who is a great friend of the Club. 174 A THE MICROCOSM 1928 E. Cullis K. Goodman F. Randall E.

This year as the big production, the Club chose Pygmalion, an extremely amusing play by Bernard Shaw, which taxed the ingenuity and capabilities of every member of the board from actor to stage hand. To help them, however, in the under- taking, Mrs. Neitsche of Leland Powers School was asked to coach and a great deal of the credit for the successful acting is largely due to her. Dorothy Lawrence and Janet Cohn, both of whom it will be remembered starred in last year's play, were again well placed in the leads of Pygmalion. In February, as always, the three competitive one-act plays were presented, each play being coached by a Senior. This year the blue ribbon went to thejuniors, which was won under Lysla Abbott's splendid direction. 176 1928 DRAMATICS MRS. CURTIS , . LANCELOT BRIGGS MRS. BRIGGS . . JESSIE . . , RUPERT SMITH . MR.

Both the Instrumental Club and the Glee Club of one hundred fifty members took part in this concert, which was very well received. The chief event of the year was the Jordan Hall concert held April 19. The programme was at credit to the Glee Club and was well executed. lt is to Mr. David Blair McCloskey, the director, that the success of the Glee Club is largely due. We hope that the Glee Club will improve in the future and some day be known all over the Country. 180 . T455 x- W L ' 4?

HELEN ELWELL Although all athletics at Simmons are still limited to inter-class competition, they are steadily increasing in popularity and occupy an important niche among extra- curricular activities. Hockey, tennis, basketball, swimming, riding, fencing, and archery are our organized sports, and the interest in basketball has increased so noticeably in the past few years that second team games have been organized and are now played on the same basis and with as much enthusiasm as are the first team games. An actual proof of the ever-increasing interest in athletics is the presence of the many badges and cups of achievement. Last year S. A. A. adopted for the first time a blazer, with the seal of the Association, which it presents to girls with outstanding athletic ability. At present only two girls in College own such blazers, but many are striving for them. The reward of a blazer is worth trying for, don't you think? 182 1928 ATHLETICS . A ,K X X. at wx. E. Morrill M.

DOROTHY HAGER Two courses in Senior Life Saving, one in the fall term, and one in the winter term, are offered at Simmons, under the leadership of Captain Jack Wallace, of the Boston Metropolitan Chapter of the American Red Cross. The course includes instructions and practice in the procedure which should be followed from the time a person is found in danger in the Water until he has completely recovered, or until rigor mortis has set in,-a thing which we hate to have happen, but which is sometimesinevitable. A more advanced course is offered in the spring for Senior Life Savers who wish to become examiners. Many girls take this course if they Wish to teach Life Saving at a SLIITIITICI' CLIIHP. ISS ' f f?

The circus has come to Simmons Town. There are bareback riders, and bears, and a Wild Woman, and a human skeleton, and host of other things. How you rallied to that last happy romp, you Freshmen of '1S! And now that you are care-ridden, dignified Seniors don't you dare have the grace to blush at the terrible, awful, wonderful things you allowed yourself to do on that day of days at Freshman Frolic.

We deserved them, however, because running around all wrapped up in a sheet with a mask on that just wouldn't co-ordinate with our own eyes, was enough to make any dog growl-especially a hot dog. Do you remember the weather on that great day? But what difference did the weather make-our costumes won the prize. Members both past and present came forth in true. Olympian style, so we carried off the athletic honors too. Every one jumped, threw baseballs and basketballs, shot put and javelins or anything else that came into sight, so well and far that the judges, doubtless in self-defense, acclaimed them winners. After winning everything we could, we returned home-tired, but happy. Do you remember? 191 THE MICROCOSM 1928 ghost! Walk Impffeffionmfiof First: A thin White line of sheeted ghosts led by a valiant spectre, scurrying along narrow sidewalks, dodging behind houses, emerging somewhere amid jungled paths of the Fenway. Second: A vacant held. A tug of war. Ghosts at either end of the rope pulling. Snap! Dr. Mark tying knots. More pulling. More snaps. Ghastly bodies piled in heaps at either end of the rope. Third: Disarranged and grass-stained, but cheerful, ghosts wending 11 snaky way through corridors and basements. Interested staring Seniors. Husky voices shouting the endless dirge: The Sophomore ghost Can surely boast He's showed them all He could pull the most. Fourth: Cider and doughnuts, of which an unghostly amount was consumed. 192 1928 YE SUNDIALE Sopbamozfe Luncheon Bowls of yellow daffodils And tables gleaming White.

King Gin and Queen Nettie looked extra special distinguished, and they re- acted with true royal spirit to the splendid presentation of Winters' Tale and the May Pole Dance. Were fairies ever more graceful than on that chill, dewey morn? After the entertainment, the King and Queen descended from their thrones to par- take of that truly regal farefStrawberry Shortcake. There on campus, was a vast mingling of royalty, traveling performers, and many spectators-a pleasant memory of Twenty-Eight's first May Day. 194 19 28 Y'E SlJPJIDIfKI.E The Weddingf of '28 1926-1918 The Wedding march had started, The bride was a lovely vision, The wedding guests were still ' The groom was handsome, too. As the sound of lovely music The bridesmaids formed a picture, Set every heart a-thrill! As they entered two by two. The words were spoken softly, Then-it pleaseth to relate- Twenty-Six gazed proudly On his blushing Twenty-Eight. 1918-1930 Another wedding soon took place, Some famous guests invited, came Distinguished as the other, In all their royal splendor. When Nineteen-Thirty was the bride The bride was sweet, and the comely groom Of Twenty-Eight's young brother. Was worthy to defend her. 'Twas over soon, their vows were pledged, And thanks to kindly Fate, That led sweet Nineteen-Thirty To the arms of Twenty-Eight. 195 THE MICROCOSM 1928 . 'll' Qui-xif..i.j. 4 ,.,Q -s.

More people were early than late at RoWe's Wharf, as you can imagine, and the boat couldn't start soon enough for us. With Nantasket Beach to ourselves, Twenty-Eight and Thirty made it a lively place. Those big boxes that the Freshmen carried were full of yummy, yummy food, We foun' that out. This plus innumerable rounds of tonics, hot-dogs, and ice cream cones kept up the picnic spirit for too short a time. Did some one say wading? Some of the more venturesome even went shrieking into the ocean for the first swim of the season. There was also a freighter obligingly beached to furnish grounds for exploring. We were a bedraggled looking bunch when we boarded the boat for Boston, but we unanimously voted Ninteen Thirty the best picnic hostesses in captivity. 196 1928 YE SUNDIALE x ,, X5 X Q-?f':u -., W be sf 314: Hua 8,39 , Q X W, X i X Alla D l ..-:gn XXX X Q ' , Wg' A QE J .vi .4 - 'T ' A gmc F pg. 1 clrpw, ln .,- X Q .

Would you believe it, great were the variations appearing showing that some are born hoboes, others acquire it, and still others may have it forced upon them. Men, women, and children came. It was a free-for-all-for all Senior hoboes. In due time came the hour of 8:co P.M., mid much flying around of the committee Cyes they didl and of the prospective hoboes. Silence! One at a time they came in. Result-yowls, yells, and screams! What did happen in the darkness of the night? Then just a little story about that dead body in the Simmons Dump Cthrown out by some Anatomy course, no doubtl. It was an organ recital. Some laughed, some roared, others fainted and a few almost died. Home talent was there in abundance. Each hoboe strived for Hrst place in every- thing. All were initiated into the order of Skinnay Horses, which had their first and last appearance on that night. It was a rare treat. More treats followed as had been previously prophesied by the publicity committee. The hold-up crowd staged one. lt was so unexpected. Poor little Izzy was the victim. Her jewels, gold fillings, gold fish, gold tipped cigarettes-all were taken. A reward is offered for their recovery. Then-the food! There was everything any hoboe could have desired and much better than he would have secured out on the road. Liquid, semi-soft, and solid nourishment was provided. Every one had from two to four helpings. When all were well fed and sleepy it was time to do something else-go home, of course. And the like of such will never be seen again! 198 1928 YE SUNDIALE Ye Cbffiffmm Dinner We bid you welcome one and all To this our gay manorial hall.

CThe pages and jesters our time did employ So that no one had chance for ought but joy.D A knock and a shout at the entrance door And some strolling players were brought to the fore. Then they with St. George and the dragon did play In a most fantastic and comical way. The food was all eaten, the candles burned lovvf The last song began-how sad we must go! 199 THE MICROCOSM 1928 Student government Tmfzjf, IQ27 There is something sad about the Colonnade. It stands year after year, listens to the farewell songs of class after class, and mourns through its weeping Wisteria blossoms swaying in the breeze. The thought of separation is sad, and that is what the Colonnade brings home to us. When, on the last day of school in 1917, we all gathered together for the last time with that class, it was with a little feeling of stillness that we gazed on our departing Seniors, wishing that this Student Government Party would last a long time, so as to keep them with us that much longer. But it was not to be. The time flew. After the Seniors had turned over the reins of government to 1918, with the subsequent responsibilities of being a Senior class, with standards to uphold, and problems to be solved, the careless, free and easy life of an undergraduate was lost in the dim background, After the delicious supper of the traditional lobster salad, and the animated dis- cussion of different groups, of who was who and what about it, came the last step sing for the Seniors with the College, as a whole. Every one felt the solemnity of the occasion for the Seniors and sang with their very best voices. What if one's voice did break a little, it seemed the wisteria, dripping lavender tears on the hard mortarboards of the Seniors, sympathized, and it too joined in the singing of the farewell song. At last, we were Seniors! zoo 1928 YE SUNDIALE 51' be Tffige Team, IQ27 The fDeJig1ze4f MARGARET E. KIMBALL One day, grown bored with thrones and kingdoms- For even He must weary of staid things! God laid aside His sceptre and His crown And picking up the shears He laughed and said, I'l1 try My hand at wielding these instead. And so from folds of rich green velvet He made the Adirondacks, And over their soft-plaited folds Let fall a film of violet chiffon Shading to royal purple at the edge. Then with head tip-tilted He surveyed His handiwork. Shrugged his imperial shoulders and with impatient hand Tore off the changing veil and in its place Tried billowy folds of silver-white, bouffant effect, Then finger to lip, regarded it with frowning gaze. Once more He stripped it off, and this time O'er the velvet base cast clouds of sombre blue Caught with long pins of silv'ry rain. This done, He smiled and nodded, satisfied- How's that, Lanvin? said God. 201 1928 YE SUNDIALE Commememeret Week Eixereefes, zme, IQZ8 4.00 P.IvI 4.30 PM 5.00 P.1VI 6.00 P.lN'I S.IS P.1VI Seztzereleey, fzme Nlrzth STEP SINGING ...........

VVe live in the age of steel, of big business, of prosperity- an age made possible only by the peculiar environmental conditions of the early twentieth century. Through its folk songs its fascinating history is preserved to us. The climate was one of continual rain. By developing a defense mechanism, these cheerful people were not damped by the atmosphere but evolved one of the brightest folk songs in our literature: Let a smile be your umbrella. De- 218 parting from the purely defensive, being quite practical, they grew discontented with the pretty but rather ineffectual smile, and so T. Edison devised the umbrella. Somewhat flexible ribs are an indispensable part of this weapon, so the astute Thomas learned to make them of steel which he invented for the purpose. Thus auspiciously was born a new and beautiful thing, modern civiliza- tion. New folk songs of rejoicing were written g courageous people who formerly asked, How in the world can the old folks tell that it ain't gonna rain no more? answered themselves quite logi- cally, t'Let it rain, let it pour, there ainlt no rain where l'm headin' for. Science is now convinced that climate is the reason for our superiority-a superiority not only mechanical but spiritual. Directly the use of steel became common, a less carefree but more philosophic strain entered the lyrics: Rain, pitter patter on the pane,', for example, in which the alliteration, alone suffices to give distinction. Nothing, however, transcends the simple, dignified, almost superhumanly beauti- ful philosophy of: We'll watch the rain, together. Science, art, and industry, then, vary directly with the climate and inversely with an element still to be discovered. 1928 MICROCHAOS Ubzqzzzzy by R. M. Ah! Life- Ghastly chaos, Mirage In a world of Idiots, Fools enthroned, lnanity called law, Pale, smirking Love, Mouthing age and prancing youth- Cold Ashes of life. Status I In 1927 Anna Driver and Underwood Portable were married and people in their set sat up until after three in the morning talking about them. Anna was ambitious enough to take the Secre- tarial Course at Simmons College over her practical-minded relatives' argumen- tation. Her incentive had been the Palmer certificate she had won in High School for her beautiful penmanship. Portable was getting toward middle age when Anna came to college but she insisted on bringing him-her own suave, determined manner and Portable's dig- nified verbosity soon quieted the tongues of the campus gossips. II A-suite, at the east end of South Hall, was brightened by the morning sun. The sun warmed old Portable and made his keys gleam like silver as Anna came in from breakfast. Work again, opened her lips, and her hands began to work in their accustomed orbits: asdfg glkjh asdfg glkjh-throughout the day they went on, doing his Work, pounding, pounding, pounding. He made a perfect impression, a symbol of the work of her hands: Hasdfgglkjhf' and Dear Sir, your order just received, and The economic significance of the rise in the price of hides is- fall the record of her service, her life, her hands. Her living hands pounded on noisily, they flung themselves ceilingward at nine o'clockg they helped him to his corner, and closed his case. III A girl listened for the sound of the buzzer. The day belonged to Portable but the nights were hers! Escape! The buzzer sounded. The maid's voice, A car to see you. She put her hand behind her head to secure more firmly an imaginary knot of hair, and walked down the stairs. IV Upstairs some one else had awaited the noise of the buzzer. He stayed stolidly motionless but he was thinking, think- ing with bitterness at his heart-What does she care about the economic signifi- cance of the rise in the price of hides? A damp breeze coming in the window made the printed sheaf-the work of her hands-shiver. He did not restrain it. The wind drew it out of doors. It be- came dissipated in the rain. Asdfgglkjh. 'tRoyal Corona! What a status. 219 UXLLY SINVVXCNS QQQO VQQT Tack MC CcuRSC io eve Nl NCL K+, KT 1-4 TGP-NDT 'ff WILL LUQE T45 WHANMXL HER THAT SNL HON EC THAT HER Qc om Us WCA SQNDLLJLCHES UCNNIES mm-L --LR anew Q.!, QQN-gamma mowers T0 SWELL THC5E ' , 6 ALQEADV Efilim HCUBL KLUHOO W CNE ALL L13 OWN.

Even though these are expensive sports, still anyone can participate, and as Miss Diall said participation is very good for our lungs and physique. At the close of the lec- ture Miss Diall read a very regrettable announcement that the Prince of Wales had been cast from his horse again. As an hon- orary member of the Sim- mons Associates, however, he has sent over to us the horse, his regrets, and a philosophical and encour- aging letter urging that practice makes perfect. All present voted it a very interesting meeting. INTERESTING SPEECH GIVEN At an enthusiastic and well attended Academy meeting week before last, Mr. J. J. Jones of the Forsyth Dental Infirmary spoke on Electricity in Electrons, a very instruc- tive subject. He said that though many people seemed to know that there are electrons in electricity, horrifyingly few, even of educated people, realize that there is also electric- ity in electrons. A delightful sense of humor punctuated his talk. NEW STUDENT EDITOR SCORES EXAMS Urges Complete Free- dom of College Minds That absolute freedom must be granted to the college mind if it is to accomplish anything is the contention of one of the reporters on the New Student, reporting in that sheet. This is not pos- sible with the present, in many colleges, unfair sys- tem of examinations. That an apparently sane college President, one in a position of the greatest responsibility, should ac- tually curb the freedom of the college mind in the strait-jacket of examina- tions, is a crime against the Younger Generation. We are too much ruled by our elders. How can we form good judgment if we are consistently re- fused the chance to form good judgment? The Older Generation is afraid of us. The inspiring speech was heartily applauded by the Club of College Presidents before whom it was de- livered. MRS. HOOPER ENTERTAINS Last Wednesday after- noon, at her delightful home at Manchester-by- the-Sea Mrs. Hooper served tea to the Western girls. 221 THE PERISCOPE Senator Johnson says there is no such thing as a Prohibition issue. He also said last week that there is no Coolidge issue. If the ice-man forgets to leave the ice on July 3, there is no issue, there simply isn't any ice. Prob- ably the lettuce will be just as limp after July 4, as the Senator is likely to be after next November election day. The Senator from In- diana, however, injected a note of rationalism into the discussion at this point, inquiring why, if Senator Johnson wished to talk about Prohibition, he didn't talk to a Prohi- bition agent. Mr. John- son requested the gentle- man from Indiana to re- sume his seat. Cal is a deep fellow and not even his wife knows why he is so wonderful, but even he doesn't know whether there is a Pro- hibition issue. ADVERTISERS IN NEWS PAY THEIR BILLS Two Casualties The business manager and one of the editors were fatally stricken and several others injured this morn- ing when checks were received from all the cor- porations which advertise in the News.

EDITORIAL STAFF Editor-in-chief Editors BUSINESS STAFF Quite unimportant FACULTY ADVISOR Mr. Varrell THOUGHT If the VVorld spent more time in thought, it would be a much happier and more useful world. Thought is conducive to happiness not only because it is considered to be a highly superior activity, setting one apart from the more mundane of human beings, but also because in exercising it, one finds many unsuspected truths which add to onefs happiness. Thought is useful in that it often leads to splendid new ideas for the conduct of affairs. We Americans do love to conduct affairs!! It is our strength in weakness. Particularly happy and useful is thought in a llffcrosom Ctlittle worldnj like our own. If we had more of it, we would be better off. POOR MUSHROOM No one loves the mushroom atop Simmons. It is truly too bad for its soft green colors and perfect symmetry blending nicely with the trees and sky make it an object of art not to be compared with anything in Mrs. Jack Gardiner's palace. The trouble is, however, that many people seem to feel that everything about Simmons is worse than it is anywhere else. The grass is always greener in the other fellow's yard, but we are actually another fellow's yard. 222 LETTERS Dear Editor, W I am outraged and dis- gusted. I wish to make known thru the columns of your good paper the scan- dalous state of affairs in one of the college dormi- tories. The studentsC?J in one of the houses have for a long time been disgracing the good name of the col- lege, until I can no longer contain myself. I call upon Public Opin- ion. Longwood harbors an ani- mal-I cannot bring myself to name it. It is slightly preferable to a RAT. VVere Simmons dormitories made for such use? Yours, Rhoda Dent, '28 Dear Editor, If the girls don't stop stealing my mail, and Walk- ing into the bath-room when I'm taking a bath, I shall leave college. I have as good a sense of humor as anybody, but I also am modest. A distressed Freshman. BOOK REVIEW Apples or Prunes? The preference is given to apples in this symbolic treatment of life.

Even room-mates will use each other's handkerehiefs. They say that four years spent in the same college halls forms beautiful and lasting friend- ships. I know it does. Friendship is something which many people have deseribediwhich I have felt. It has ennobled me and made me happy once in a while. I find such little cause for rejoicing in this sad world. I have sought friendship, and it has sought me. When I sought it, it turned a cool shoulderg when I have wished it not, it has come to me Special De- livery, wrapped in silver paper.
