When We depart For sterner ways, And struggles start, Oh, may we leave A thought that blesses A love that stays, Within thy heart, Saint Genevieve!

Nous avons donne des rep- resentations de L'Avare, La Pluie des Fleurs, et pour le jour des prix, la touchante tragedie de '6Marie Stuart. Quelques-unes de nous furent chaleur- eusement applaudies. Nous avons en- core des membres qui nous font honneur dans toutes les branches de la vie scol- astique et comme nous n'avons pas de rivales cette annee nous tenons le haut des rangs et les classes inferieures leVent le chapeau en nous voyant passer! Un des evenements les plus import- ants de notre premiere annee lyceenne fut la visite du secretaire de l'Alliance Francaise, M. Delamare. Il n'etait pas si redoutable que nous nous l'etions im- agine et nous avons bien joui de sa petite conference privee. Une autre visite qui nous donna beaucoup de plaisir fut celle du Pere Beaver. Bien que d'origine lux- embourgoise, il nous parla en Francais tres correct, nous encourageant et nous felieitant de notre bonne chance de re- cevoir une instruction telle que celle qui nous est donnee ici. I1 nous laissa la pensee qu'un homme qui parle deux langues est deux fois homme. La visite de Mme. Guerin fut aussi un de nos plaisirs les plus goiites. Avec l'aide de sa fille, Mlle. Raymonde, elle donna Jeanne d'Arc et Marie Antoinette, deux conferences historiques ii la fois tres in- teressantes et instructives. Et pouvons- nous jamais oublier les affaires de la Sororite? Les costumes bizarres, les chansons etranges, la chevre mysteri- euse? . . . Et les Visites au theatre, les diners et les danses aux hotels de Bat- tery-Park et de Grove-Park! Que de di- vertissements agreables sont venus egayer notre vie de pensionnaire sans parler des belles promenades dans les montagnes qui nous ont valu de bien douces jouissances. La fin de l'annee s'approche. Bientfit nous aurons entendu pour la dernii-re fois la cloche de 6:15 nous appelant au lever matinal. Nous regrettons de quit- ter ces lieux aimes ou nous avons trav- aille avec assiduite et constance. Toutes nous emportons le desir de proiiter de cette science acquise au prix de tant de labeur personnel joint au travail infati- gable de nos maitresses. Combien nous leur gardons de reconnaissance pour les soins devoues dont elles nous ont entour- ees. Puisse leur zele etre recompense par l'acquisition d'une nouvelle classe qui leur donne toute la satisfaction qu'elles meritent en retour de leurs ef- forts. A cette classe de 1918 nous sou- haitons la perseverance, le succes, et aussi le bonheur de jouir pleinement de tous les plaisirs qui s'attachent il la vie du Lycee. Nous les avons ressentis avec enthousiasme et nous les abandonnons avec un vif regret. Souvent nous revi- endrons en esprit dans ce charmant coin de Ste. Genevieve, et, avant de lui dire adieu, nous formons des voeux ardents pour que la Providence nous procure la joie d'y revenir quelquefois en personneg c'est le vif desir des cinq Lyeeennes au moment de quitter une retraite de choix pour se lancer dans le vaste monde et commencer leur carriere sociale. N. STEWART, Lyeee, '17.

Aw, Jack, quit all that sentimental stuff, and let's have a game, called Nip- pie, short, stout, eighteen, and Jack Boyd's particular chum. That's the talk, Nippie ! echoed the rest. It was a warm evening at the be- ginning of vacation, and the dozen mem- bers of the Sigma Gamma fraternity who lived in the college town were all in the huge, half-empty fraternity house. I won't quit it, said Jack, I want that money, and quick, too ! Say, fellows, from Nippie, let me present our distinguished member, Mr. Jack Nutty Boyd, philanthropistf' Say that if you want to, but I must have that money for Mrs. Hogan, re- plied Jack, determinedly, only to be in- terrupted by two or three voices: Why not call her Mrs. Francois de la Paris ? - Or Mrs. Deutschland Van Dykey - Perhaps Mrs. Pedro-- Say, fellows, stop this nonsense, and get down to business, came from an- other, not quite so interested in guy- ing Jack as in having his game. Im- mediately there was a mad scuffle for the tables-in which, by the way, Jack competed. Still, with all the joking and punching, he remained rather quiet and sober. I could almost find it in my heart to wish college would open again, said Dutch Delorme, while he shuflied for the third round. This town's too dead for me. You forget psychology and old Snell, answered Jack. Your cut, Nip- pie. Remember when Fattie let the rat out in the hall? A laugh followed. Do I? Snell wasn't long in finding a chair, was he? He ought to put on skirts and curl his hair. Your deal, Jack. l'll tell you what, said someone, let's take him out in my car, and give him a good scare by- No, take him in mine. It's larger, and more of us can go. Mine's the fastest- Cut it, fellows. Jack, why doesn't your governor get you one? He's got money to burn, from Dutch. Guess he would if I'd guy him a little, answered Jack indifferently, I may try it some day. Shuffle those cards-I want a decent hand. The fact was, that Jack had guyed his father one too many times, and had now been forbidden ever to mention car again. He had carefully kept this to himself, and none of the boys even knew that he wanted one. S After the game, when the crowd had scattered, some to the billiard-rooms, and others lounging around to smoke, Jack still sat by the table in silence. He was thinking again of his strange ex- perience the previous evening. On the way home from the fraternity-house, he had been caught in a beating, drenching rain, and had stopped for shelter at a poor house in the suburbs. He recalled the shabby room to which the woman who had answered his knock had brought him, and remembered, too, the
