For this reason it has the power to inspire others. Next to the inspiration that comes fron our association with one another, from friendship, from the meeting of great men, the greatest source of inspiration is found in great literature. In books are preserved the minds of men long dead. From between the covers of a book the great Shakespeare speaks to us again. Robert Burns has been dead many years, but open' a volume of his wonderful love lyrics and he will sing his songs for you as he sang them of old. Every library is full of thousands of books that are so permeated with the spirit and life of the authors that they have the power to teach the art of living and inspire us to noble deeds. ' Many books, on the other hand, are written for a day's pleasure. They entertain, they give relaxation from the burdens and stress of life, they serve a tempo- rary purpose, but they are soon forgotten. In choosing our reading, we should choose those books that have the power to teach us the ideals of life, the secrets of success--not only here--but hereafter. Choosing friends among books is just as important as choosing human friends. They may be an inspiration or a waste of time,--friends to go with us through life, or merely passing acquaintances. To have made friends with many good books is to have enriched one's life be- yond the wealth of Croesus. --Theresa Schutty, '43 ... ,.- 4, W- ' if --fe .5 E iz Y ig 3 F 5' 5 VW?

cfxsnmon wi. he ' 4 ' l .Q VF ts fish vvfis inc? ' 9 5 Q After supper I rise casually from my seat at the table and start for the living room. Once out of the sight of the family, I rush for my sweater and jacketg slip them on and dart for the door. I fumble with the lock for a moment, but alas, I am seized from behind, stripped of my Jacket and sweater and rushed to the sink by both sister and brother. During the onslaught, I decide to 'bluffn it out, so when I get to the kitchen I inquire, JWhat's up?N Greeted by cold stares I am informed, WIt's your turn to wash the dishes.' WIt is not,H I declare feebly, but I Know that my cause is lost. I then decide to play on their sympathy, HI have a lot of home work and--H, I be- gin, but I am immediately shut up. My sleeves are rolled up for me and a piece of soap and a dishrag are shoved into my hands. Seeing red, I begin to plan revenge. Mentally I view my sister and brother in a room--stacked, crammed, filled, crowded and stuffed--with dirty dishes. I stand over them, su- pervising, directing. But there are the dishes I have to wash, so I start First I fill the pan with water and dishes and after washing them, dry. During the process there is a knock at the door. Enter--my sister's girl friends. I make a vain attempt to hide. They have already seen me and come into the Kitchen to tease. I begin to Hboil,N but hold my temper. Finally I can tolerate no more, I snatch my jacket and leave the house at a terrific speed. Two blocks away I halt. Everybody is staring at me and I feel embarrased. I look at my trousers and they are covered'with a long apron,and in one hand is a dishrag and in the other a piece of soap which I had forgotten to discard. Look- ing at myself again to make sure, I staggered to the nearest corner and collapsed. fA15x I I ciiffora MQ Ginnie, '41 .,.-U, D -- Lgf' '72 LX v f .35 AJ ...1O,ef,5S 1' 'lf Q'
