When he should pass beyond her gates into the heated plain : And the Garden gave him freely of her bounteous floral wealth. “Pansies for Sweet Thoughts,’’ she said, “and clematis for Joy,” And Pleasure’s rich and lovely flower she gave into his hand ; The dainty bloom of Hope was his, the violet for Peace, While dearest of them all he called the blushing Rose of Love ; ' I ' et, all unnoted, one there hid among his fragile blooms. The Flowers of Mem’ry, “Rosemary,” ' twas called. His path led from the Garden, with its young, its morning soul. And took him on a burning stretch beneath Midlife’s l)right sun. The scorching heat fell on his flowers, and one by one they drooped : First died the Flower of Pleasure, and dropped from out his hand. Then fell young Hope’s fair flower, and then the Rose of Love, With swiftly scatt ' ring petals, followed to the ground. Still he toiled on beneath the glaring, burning sun. And scarcely knew when they, his lovely flowers, were gone. Until he came into the cool and shaded Vale of Age; Then he bent his graying head upon the flowers he held. Of all he ' d gathered in Youth’s Garden, lo ! but one remained : Yet, mingled in its fragrance, rose the Ijreath of all his flowers; From its petals gleamed the tints that long since had fled from theirs. That through the journey, long and wearing, it had caught and held. While in its fresh, enduring life still lived the Garden fair. He pressed it close unto his heart — his Rosemary. !) D. T..

The (|uotation from the immortal William, which heads this article, sounds so much like Cate that we suspect that it was some of her ancestors who suggested the idea to the poet. The Virginians have honored her for two years in succession with the position of treasurer of their club, a position which they realized was undoubt- edly meant for one of Cate ' s indomitable spirit.

Pearl has been called the “mirror of fashion and mould of form, and, truly, she is always tastily dressed. Straightforward and a lively talker, she is one of the most popular girls at Sullins, 12 o s E lyr VK- ' v BESSIE CUBINE, A. B. BRISTOL, VIRGINIA “I never knezv so young a body With so old a head; I low much more elder art thou Than thy looks!” She is quiet — most of the time. Still, she has been known to break forth into a narration of some of her past experiences, or to give her views on the present con- ditions of society. She expects to receive only two diplomas, a Bible Certificate, and a few other little things this year. It is a |)ity she wasted her time so. She ought to have taken another course or two. at least. In spite of this failing, she is a line girl, most obliging and generous. 17 MYRTLE ELIZABETH CHILDERS, B. S. BRISTOL, TENNESSEE “She hath a tear for pity, and a hand Open as day for melting charity. ‘‘Beth” is one of those rare girls who has cultivated no peculiarities on which literary editors may hinge their ‘‘write- ups.” Not that she isn ' t possessed of strong individuality, for she is. She is a practical and husinesslike young person ; the very tone of her voice and her force- ful manner of expression tell you that. She sings like a lark and holds the honored position of leader of the Sullins’ choir. She acts upon Mrs. Neighbors’ oft-repeated advice and keeps her mouth turned up at the corners. 18 ROSE lyr AR ' Y LUCILE EIFFERT, P,. S. KOANOKE, VIRGINIA “What ail eye she hath! Methiuks it sounds a parley of provocation. An eye like Mars, to threaten and command.” Eiffert (ef¥ort) — as her name indicates — is a very great task to all her teachers and friends. She is a Virginia maid with shockingly playful brown eyes; has a musical voice — when heard. For two long years Lucile has waded out into the crystal waters” of knowledge at Sullins and has partaken freely thereof. Lucile is cheerful, sweet and refined — a girl well worth knowing. In former days she once held a very important (?) place on the dummy row” in Madamoiselle’s most brilliant P rench class. Lucile is very fond of traveling, and her brightest ambition is to become an honorary member of a certain LP T. C. Council. 19 ROSE M A.K. ' V MARV WHITE GOODELL, A. B. BRISTOL VIRGINIA Thus ready for the zvay of life or death, I wait the sharpest blozv.” She carries upon her shoulders twenty- four hours’ work per week and seems to mind it not at all. She, philosophically, accepts life as it is, and pursues her even way with no complaining. Mary is a generous, open-handed, open-hearted girl, with a love for life and a desire to fill it with something “worth while.’’ And she is succeeding, too. She is an excellent stu- dent. standing in the foremost ranks at Sullins. 20 RO E ]yr NELL HALE, B. S., Expression NARROWS, VIRGINIA Your eyes arc lodestars, and your tongue’s s ' iaeet air More tuneable than lark to shepherd ' s car When wheat is green, zvhen hawthorne buds appear.” In this feverish, cannon-hall speed cen- tury, when everybody seems in a dreadful hurry to get somewhere else, it is a real pleasure to meet a person of unruffled and leisurely temperament. Such a person is Nell Hale. There is no record that she was ever on time at anything. However, as Mrs. Neighbors has pointed out, “Though Nell is never there on time, she is always there.” And she is likewise calm, and prepared for any emergency. o s E ]yr Apcv SARAH PARK HOUSE, A. B. FRANKLIN, TENNESSEE Forth at your eyes your spirits zvildly peep.” I shall fell you a pretty tale.” Sarah Park is a wide-awake, active girl. Everything she touches seems to he immediately charged with energy. Even her conversation has a dynamic force, while her exceedingly entertaining narra- tives are the liveliest we ever gave ear to. She has a mind of her own, and a will of her own, as well as a habit of accomplish- ing what she sets out to do. She’s a mighty “sport, and the luckiest girl alive — she finished Senior English last year. 22 EOS MARY HORNE, B. S. GI.ADE SPRING.

Mary is one of our old settlers,” liavin.sj come to Sullins in the ancient days of 1911. She is somewhat leisurely in her manner of work and of play. Well, she takes life easy,” in general. However, she knows how to work when it is neces- sary, and she has proved herself a good student. She is addicted to Believe me! — the only slang e.xpression in her vocabulary.

Dixie said so, always settles all perplexities which cause many days of weariness and corresponding nights of anxiety. As literary editor, Dixie has shown her skill and genius hy producing a most wonderful newspaper, Current Events, which contains “all knowledge,” or anything you want to know. Dixie is modest, sweet and ambitious — a true ' irginia maid in every way. She is truly wedded to her work, and her in- dustrious mind is ever at work inventing little schemes for the Rosemary.

Well, she might make a good one, but we firmly believe that she would talk all her patients to death. As the above would imply. Ruby is given to frankness. Her frankness is not of the disagreeable sort, however, as is proved by her popularity. She has a genius for going straight to the center of things. She also has a talent for managing and “boss- 25 ROSE lyr A.K. ' V EVA OGLESBY, B. S. HARRISBURG, N. C. “IVc’Il have a speech straight; come. Give us a taste of your quality; come, A passionate speech.” Eva is a great-hearted, generous girl — — a girl of prodigal kindness. She is marked by a powerful spirit of perserver- ance and a deal of pluck. Besides all this, she is gifted in the art of “dramatics.’ ' Such a girl could not fail to be a success. She has distinguished herself in a number of recitals and plays within the last three years, while she literally shone in the “School for Scandal.” o s E ]yr ! PCY SALLIE PORTER. A. B. RURAL RETKE. “W hat’s gone and Should be past Here is one of the jolliest girls in school. She is the life of the Erench class, and it is clue to her that that ancient institution, the ‘ ' dummy bench. received the dignity of a name. She has been an ornament of Sullins for three long years, and we feel sure that with the passing of iT, VIRGINIA what ' s past help her blonde head, half the light of this college will fade forever. Eor all her merriment, we suspect Sallie of cruelty — ■ we have reasons to believe that she designs to break the brotherly circle of a certain Bachelors’ Hall. She has but one regret — her eyes are not brown. 27 o s MAE SNAVELY, A. B. CROCKETT, VIRGINIA “I like your silence, if the more slwn ' s off Your wonder.” She is a girl who accomplishes things without saying much about it. There is a (luiet forcefulness about her, a something that tells of indomitable spirit. In spite of the fact that her “specs give her quite a learned and dignified appearance, she is popularly known by the frivolous title of Pet. Mae is a fine girl. W’e every one wish for her, and expect her to attain, the best of fortune. 28 K O S E HELEN TURNER, B. S. VOSBURG, MISSISSIPPI ‘For she is wise, if I can judge of her, And fair she is, if that mine eyes be true.’ ' Helen does not bother herself by taking life too seriously. She makes use of her troubles — she climbs up on top of them to get a better view of the approaching good. Mischief dances from her eyes and lives in her big, generous heart. Please do not get the idea from this last statement that she is utterly and incurably frivolous; as proof to the contrary, she has been known to keep study ball cpiite late, indeed. 29 ROSE ]yr A.K. ' Y ANNIE WHATLEY, A. B. OPELIKA, ALABAMA ' She is fair and fairer than that word. Of wondrous virtue.” She is a lovely, dark-eyed daughter of the South. She has a trusting, childlike sort of air about her which makes her simply adorable. We used to think she was comparatively dignified, hut the antics she performed the day Senior privileges were granted have served to disillusion us She is ambitious and a worker. She made us an excellent class president in our Junior year. We expect to hear great things of her. 30 KO s EiyrA.K. ' v MARY MYRTLE BIG STONE GAP, “Let me play the fool! With mirth and latight) come.” Wherever Myrtle goes she is bound to have her joke. Her case is hopeless, for she has ever been guilty of frivolity at the solemn councils of the editorial staff. She is scarcely ever depressed, Init when, at rare intervals, she is, she is the most t’OLFE, B. S. VIRGINIA r, let old wrinkles depressed iierson alive. It is a strange fact, that though she is so innately mirth- ful, she rarely smiles, and she does not wear a “beaming countenance.” She de- li.ghts in activity and stands in the fore- most rank in Sullins’ athletics. 31 o s E ]yr APcv WILLETTE WILLIAMS, A. li. HAKKIM.W, TENNESSEE Her sunny locks hang on her leinples Like a golden fleece.” Willette is a girl of charming manner and personality. Her bright eyes and pleasant smile win friends for her every- where. She has been with us only during this year, but her success in attaining popularity is well attested by the fact that the Seniors named her for about every office at their disposal. She had not been among us three weeks before they succeeded in “thrusting greatness upon her’’ to the extent of two offices. She has fully justified their confidence in her. There are many things which are “curis” to her. 32 KO s GLADYS YAWN, A. L5. LU.MUEKTON, MISSISSIPPI “Whose worth, if praises may go back again, Stood challenger on mount of all the age For her perfections.” Gladys must be an angel. None hut an angel could have endured the trials she has undergone as Senior Class President. She has made us an excellent president, meeting every emergency with a calmness and decision characteristic of her. She is industrious, an excellent artist, generous, and very thoughtful of others. She is one of our most popular girls. KO S E IVr AK.

She is a very industrious sort of a iierson, and. though rain or shine, greets every one with a merry smile. EOS EiyrA.iCY MARY ERMYNE BISHOP Business Course HATTIESBURG, MISSISSIPPI “As prone to niiscliief as able to perform it.” Ermyne has two great ambitions which would seem to conflict with each other — to be “voguish” and to be ‘ ' original. ” That she accomplishes both proves her a remarkable person. She is extremely mischievous, her only care being that her mischief shall be thoroughly original. It is said that she is quite fond of sweeping; indeed, that it is her chief and almost constant occupation. She probably con- siders it original. :i8 ROSE r-T K.

Every- thing about her, from her extreme neat- ness of dress to her serene and peaceful countenance, bespeaks calmness and regu- larity. One would never dream of a girl with such an exterior being guilty of flirt- ing. but this is just what she has been accused of. Coquette, or not, it has been demonstrated that she is not so heartless as to be invulnerable to Cupid’s arrows herself. o s EMA.K- ' V MAE DUVALL. Business Course BRISTOL, TENNESSEE “With her eyes in flood with laughter.” Mae is an energetic young lady. My, but she moves swiftly ! She probably acquired her proficiency in this line by the practice of daily races to the 8 a. m. French class. She talks as rapidly as she walks, and rarely gives her poor tongue a rest. She is rather mischievous, and goes in for all sorts of fun. dO E O S E AKTiTSH SUSAN FOLLANSBEE, Piano FORT SPRING, For thou shalt find all praise.” Susan carries about her such an air of quiet and dignity that the girls liave unanimously voted her the title of “Grand- ma.’’ Her voice, with its low, soft, musical tones, interprets her character CEST VIRGINIA that she wilt outstrip completeh ' — you know, as soon as you hear her speak, that she is calm, even tempered, and dependable. .All Sullins wishes, and expects for her, a great success in life.

Though usually jolly and sunshiny, Alma spends a great deal of time lamenting (?) over the fact that she does not get to see “Uncle” Burley more often. Alma numbers her friends by the score; she is a true, noble girl, with ambition and courage which predicts a most brilliant future for her. -12 O S E M APCY STELLA PRATER, Piano HKISTOL, TENNESSEE ‘I am as true as truth’s siinf’licity. And siml’lcr than the infancy of truth.” Stella suffers a sort of persecution at the hands of her friends — on every t)cca- sion they drag her into the limelight and force her to play for them. But no one who has ever heard her play can blame them, we know. She is a line musician and a fine, lovable girl. We are not the only ones that think so, either. We might mention a few others, hut we are “scared of her.” 43 ROSE ]yr MAE RUTHEREO RD, Piano BRISTOL, VIRGINIA She IS young and apt, Our own precedent passions do instruct us, iriiat lex ' ity’s in youth Sullins’ girls call her cute; dignitied people call her attractive.

And the messenger of William Kleda, the son of Martin, said unto her: “. rise, gather thy goods together and hasten eastward, and journey to the land of Bristol, and there abide with your daughters in the college of Sullins,” and she did even so: and the elder daughter, Sarah by name, dwelt from year to year in the college of Sullins. And when the year 1914 came still she dwelt in the land whither her mother had brought her, and became a member of the Class of 1914, and editor-in-chief of the Annual. With her hand she has brought fair designs u])on china, and upon earthen ware, and has thrown upon the canvas ])ictures worthy of the masters, and she has read many books, and is deemed worthy to he called a “Senior.” Ruby, of the house of McDowell, came also to Sullins, and has here dwelt ; and here has she studied, and here tarried to he with this class. Winter passed, and spring came, and, when it was summer, William Eleda, the son of Martin, tfxjk his wife and his child and his household goods and journeyed to a far country. And a new ruler, William Samuel, the son of Neighbors, ruled in the land, and he sent a messenger into the county of Giles, even to the home of Nell, daughter of Herbert Hale; and another messenger he sent into Harrisburg, in the State of North Carolina, into the home of Eva, daughter of Oglesby; and still another messenger did he send to the home of May, daughter of Suavely; and these three maidens came in the autumn to Sullins and they dwelt within the walls, and they did accf)rding to all that they were commanded ; one, Eva, learned to s])eak before the great ones, and to delight them; and the maiden Nell became swift of foot, skilled 40 K O S E lyryVK. ' Y in rising np early, and being first at all those meetings where the students gather themselves together with one accord : and May dwelt in Snllins, and grew strong for work, and took diligent heed to kee]:) the commandments and the law. And when the days had passed, hehold the ruler of Snllins sent his messengers beyond the borders of the Mississippi, into the mountain passes of Virginia, and there gathered themselves together at Snllins a goodly com- pany that they might make war upon the great enemy — ignorance. And from the land of the great river came unto Snllins, Gladys, the daughter of Yawn ; and to Snllins from the land of ' irginia came Bessie, of the house of Cuhine; Sallie, of the house of Porter; Cate, of the house of Brown; together with Pearle, the daughter of Cole, and Mary, the daughter of Horne. Each is before you, and each is an honor to the house of her father, for has not Bessie made wonderful music before you, even in your ]; resence ; while Sallie and Gladys have turned away from the English and are accounted learned in the language of the old Romans ; likewise, Cate, of the household of Brown, knows much, and is a maiden of serious countenance and cjuiet tongue. And Mary has been courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the bo ok of Chemistry, and neither will she turn aside to the right hand, nor to the left. There dwelt with these maidens a certain Susan, the daughter of Follanshee ; and Stella, of the house of Prater; May, whose father was called Rutherford ; Alma, of the house of iMcCoy; and Carrine, the daughter of Buchanan, together with i Iay, of the household of Duvall. Susan and May and Stella have grown skilled, and can bring forth sweet sounds from many instruments. Have they not played even here? Have ye not hearkened to them, and have they not delighted you with the music of piano and ' cello? - nd is it not written how Carrine and iMay have grown wi.se in the curious marks called Shorthand, and how they have mastered bookkeeping, e en “double and single entry have they mastered? Alma, too, like her college sister, Eva, has learned the trick of voice that turns the gay to grave and brings both tears and laughter. And the fame of Snllins spread abroad, for know ye in all your hearts, and in all your souls, that not one thing failed, of all the good things the messengers spoke of Snllins. Therefore, it came to pass that in 1912 there came Mary and iMyrtle and Dixie and Lucille and Myrtle, daughters of Goodell, Childers, McCrary, Eififert and W ' olfe, who have long dwelt among 47 KO S EMAKTr ' you. Fair of face are they, and Science and English and Language have they studied, and much commendation ha e they received, and the love and the good will of all, is their heritage. And with these maidens dwelt Annie, of the honsehcdd of Whatley, and all that the daughters of the houses of Goodell and iNIcCrary accom])lished. she did likewise accomi)lish, until she grew great and had much knowledge. And from the land of flowers there came to Sullins, Elizabeth, daughter of the household of Branham, and she did sing before her companions, and gave diligent heed unto the commands of Ahlliam Samuel, son of Xeighhors, who ruled in Sullins. From the valley of the Mississippi, even from X’osshurg, came Helen, of the household of Turner, and she joined herself unto those who dwelt in Sullins. and the name of FTelen became great and loved among her companions. XX ' hen another year had passed, in the fourth year of the ruling of William Samuel, the son of Xeighhors, there came unto the mountain Polly Cora, of the household of Ard : Ermyne, daughter of Bishop, and they abode under the shadow of the mountain in the college of Sullins for many days. They tarried there, and with Katie, the daughter of Blackwell, in a room fifteen cubits wide, twenty-one cubits long, and twenty cubits high they toiled many days until they became graduates in the Commercial Uepartment. And with these maidens came M ' illette. daughter of XX ' illiams, and of comely features and quick mind was she ; so that she soon became as a daughter of the college. And when William, the son of X eighhors, looked upon these maidens he was pleased, and he called his officers unto him and said: “Behold here one- score and tweh ' e maidens. I prav vou deal kindlv with them. To Louis, (jf the house of Alberti ; to Carl, of the house of Bodell ; to Albert, of the house of X ' redenburg; to Katherine, daughter of Carlock ; and to Elizabeth Sheffield, daughter of Allen: and to Julia, of the household of Simpson, he gave charge that they might he in.structed in all hue arts, that they might he skilled in all pleasing things. Then he called unto him Ruby and Antoinett e, daughters of the households of Steele and Flury, and commanded that they should teach unto them all the knowledge of the Romans and the French. Then did he speak unto Katherine, of the household of Siinjison : unto Harriet, daughter of h ' illinger ; unto that Mary who ruled with him; unto Beryl, the daughter of Little; unto Mary, of the household of Mooney, and traightw a}- charged them that they should look well unto these maidens and J8 12 O S EIMAR.

And before he made an end of speaking, lest harm should come to these maidens, he called unto him George, of the household of Summers, and charged him saying: “These maidens are far from home, they dwell among us. Instruct them in all Philosophy, and in all History, and, when they go far from the land of Sullins, go with them to the i)arting of the ways, lest they travel in the wrong direction, and keei) thou them safe from all danger.” Then he charged him that no youth of Bristol come nigh to speak with these maidens. ■ nd all these things that William Samuel, the son of Xeighhors, commanded, were done, and the maidens were l)rought to this night, which William Samuel, son of Neighbors, and those who labor w ith liim, call “Class Night !

S., Class President. 51 ROSE lyryVK-Ysa Class Prophecy T was in the year 1925, I stood upon the Mount of Know-It-All, a lofty mass lifting high its peaks, in tliat wonderful region known as the iMind. Its sides were rugged and steep, and the task of cliinljing was much greater tlian the ascent of the Alps or the Himalayas : l)ut a wonderful view greeted me upon reach- ing its summit. It was more wonderful than the fairy tales of my childhood, or the Arabian Nights of my youth. It was the living humanity there, in those great planes of the world, toiling, striving, ever climl ing toward their ideals. A few found the task too great for them, and fell fiami the ranks: the majority labored bravely on. It would take volumes to tell of all the sights I beheld from that wonder- ful Mount of Know-It-All, and much would he wearisome to you; but, list ye. all who believe in youth’s golden dreams, all ye who remember when you were young: list to the fate of the Seniors of 191-1, to the story of their careers. Li.sten well, and you will not grow weary, nor will you fall asleep while you harken to what was seen from the Mount of Know-It-All. Following my own inclination, I climbed to a far-jutting peak, and hnd- ing there a maid all dressed in holiday garb, I begged, a lo( ' k into the future. She studied me carefully and said, Von may see the present only; gaze from this point over all the earth and the present occupation (F all your friends will be made clear to you.” I determined to see the Class of 1914. for eleven years had passed since we were last together. I climbed up, turned my face toward Bristol, and, as I looked upon the Sullins cam])us, I saw several hundred girls in line and many of them carrying suit-cases. To one side stood a photographer ready to take a picture of the line. What a change from 1914! Then the photographer was a man, now it was a woman. When she said. “Now, M’ashington Trip girls, look ])leasant, ])lease,” I recognized Pearle Cole. The assistant by ber side bore a familiar asj ect, and as .she turned in my direction T saw it was Ruby McDowell. Scarcely had the photographer finished when my attention was arrested by these words of the lady principal; “A ' oung ladies, you need ])ay no atten- tion to your studies for the remainder of this week, and you may talk to the 52 WKO S EMARY® hoys and go to the theater as much as you like.” Who sliould this he I)ut our fun-loviug Sallie Porter, just as jolly as of old. h ' rom this startling sight I turned toward the slums of Xew ' ork and there, toiling side hv side, mid heat and strife, were Imcille Ifitiert and Ma_ ’ Snax ' ely. ‘‘1 ' hro ' busiest street and loneliest glen, d ' hey went tcj help their fellow-men.” In this great metroi)olis, as I gazed in the window of a large bookstore, I saw only two writers’ works ad ertised. ' I ' hey were “Pssays and W’orks of Fiction,” by Di.xie McCrary, and a “New Fnglish Grammar,” by Myrtle Childers. In the preface of the fiction I saw that it had l)een ajjproN ' ed by the higher critics and the Essays were placed among the classics. In Miss Childers’ Xew Grammar she stressed the fact that diagramming was not at all necessary to good English and that parsing was absolutely useless; that both were nen ' e wracking, and should not he allowed. A new method was ])ut before the public in the Childers’ Grammar, where the conjugation of the verbs was made simple, being limited to the ' erl) “To Eo -e,” made useless in all moods sa e the indicative, and limited to the present tense, engdiatic form, and first person plural number — “We Do Love.” A footnote e.xplained that “ A” stood for iMyrtle and . As if in a dream I was conscious of the ajiproach of a ' ehicle. It was unlike anything 1 had ever seen before, and evidently belonged to a jierson of great wealth. A society woman of the most fashionable type sat within. It took only one glance to make me realize that dear Polly Cora . rd had come into her own, and that a real prince among men had claimed her. I ' his ision had scarcel_ - faded, and I was still wishing I could talk to Polly Cora for a few moments, when a great building all ablaze with lights and crowded with hundreds of people seemed to rise before me. . stateh ' woman, calm and (juiet, mo ' ed from table to table, and the hundreds of people seemed to listen to her every word. I thought at first that I had ne er seen her, hut a second glance showed me that it was Ermyne P)ishop who was at the head of a famous Business College, and had evob ' ed such a ])erfect system that her pupils could get the words, look, and tone of the speaker with only the slightest effort. She had been assisted in all this wonderful work by her old friends, lMa ' Dinxill and Katie Blackwell. The sight of 5:3 ROSE ]yr AK-Ys® tliese girls brought l)ack the Imsiness room in Siillins College, and the old familiar scene made me miss the dignified Carrine Bnchanan, who I was accustomed to see there. No sooner had the thought come to me than the scene changed. It was a juvenile court room. The prisoner, a lad of ten years. His lawyer, a woman. But while I was looking the lawyer made such a plea for the child that he was immediately accpiitted. I wondered who this wonderful woman could he, hut as I looked more closely I recognized the stately Carrine. In looking down the Rue de Rivoli, in Paris, I saw Myrtle Wolfe stand- ing near the statue of Jeanne d’Arc. She was telling to a party of tourists the story of this mediaeval heroine in Huent h ' rench. From the tone of her voice I knew that she was the chaperon, and from the attention given her I felt that those who listened felt that she knew it all. 1 thought of Sullins, the French room, and that front bench, and declared: “ ' Fhe Day of Miracles is still here.” Not far from this statue stands the world-renowned French Theater, frecpiently called the “House of Moliere.” As I looked inside, imagine my surprise when I heard this familiar voice : “Fm a-startin’ agin, hut I won’t for shore; I ain’t goin’ to cry no more, no more!” It was Alma McCoy, mimicking little children just as she did when a girl at Sullins. In the scene that followed 1 was still more surprised by the familiar notes of these tones : Juliet: Romeo, doff thy name; And for that name, which is no ])art of thee. Take all myself. Romeo: I’ll take thee at thy word — Call me beloved, and I’ll he new baptized ; Henceforth I never will he Romeo. Scarcely had these words been uttered when I recognized Eva Oglesby and Nell Hale as the players. This vision blurred my sight so that it was several minutes before I could see clearly. But when it did clear Melrose Abbey first greeted me, and there 54 ROSE lyr pcY seated within the ruins sat Annie Whatley. I asked myself what could she be doing there, but as I glanced over her shoulder this was fully answered. She was writing such poetry as only a genius could. She ex idently came to this ruined edifice, of which Sir Walter Scott was so fond, for her inspiration. From this I turned toward one of the world’s largest theaters. The immense audience sat spellbound listening to the wonderful voice of Iflizabeth Branham. The tones of her voice made one’s heartstrings thrill like an diolian harp ; its music was such as loosens the heart that is hound with care, “And could soften steel anti stones ; make tigers tame, and huge liviathaus forsake unsounded deeps to dance on sands.” Another of my classmates I saw in the sunny Florida. She was in an orange grove picking oranges. A large sunbonnet shaded her face so that I did not at first know her. When she turned to the man at her side and said, “Dear, have you forgotten that this is the fifth anniversary of our marriage?” I knew it was Gladys Yawn, and that her favorite boast when at college, that she would never fall in love, was a vain one. Leaving this vision with its beauty and its fascination my eyes next rested, on the Y. M. C. A. in Richmond. Imagine my surprise when I read on a billboard in the lobby that the program Lyceum number for that night would be composed of the most famous quintet of ])ianists the world had produced, namely. Misses Vradenburg, ‘Prater, Cubine, Follansbee, and Rutherford. It has been said that one touch of nature makes the whole world kin, so surely it was the world of music that drew these together. Then in the Senate chamber at the Capitol. I was completel} ' bewildered at the sight I beheld. A large assembly of women were gathered there, and a woman was addressing them. As I looked more closely at the face of the speaker I recognized her as Sarah Park House. She was lecturing on Woman Suffrage. I was still more amazed, when, at the conclusion of her speech, she announced that Mary Horne would then give a short talk on the subject. At the conclusion of the spectacle I turned towards the Orient, and the first thing that attracted my attention was the cherry trees radiant with blossoms. Beyond these on a hill was a large building strongly contrasting with those around it. It was an American Mission. In the s])acious lawn sat an American woman with several little Japs around her. I ' hen as the sunlight fell through the cherry blooms on her head of golden hair I knew it was Helen Turner, who was giving her life for our Mongolian brothers. 55 ROSE lyr A.K-Y As we had ex])ected, Cate I’rown could not overcome her fondness for animals, so 1 was not greatly surprised when T looked in her h(jme and saw her sharing it with a ‘A h)lfe.” But, strange to say, this Wolfe” seemed to possess liumau intelligence, and if I hadn ' t have lieard Cate call his name I would never have known him to he a “A’’olfe.” The sun was setting as I turned for one last look from that wemderful .Mount. In the Golden Gate, in California, a large steamer was just entering the harhor. Among the passengers 1 recognized Willette Williams. She liad been on a isit to Helen ' Turner, and was now coming home to . merica to lecture on Life in Japan.” I ' he Mount of Know-It-. ll still holds its place in the Kingdom of the Mind. ' I ' he maid who guards it is willing to show me vision upon vision, l)ut my eyes have grown tired, and my thoughts linger on the Class of 1014; and though this Mountain be ready, and though the maid he willing, my heart has no room for other ])ictures.

He told them of a maiden with the modest, meek, brown eye. Whose shaded orbs were like the dusk in evening sky. Lovingly he pictured her, standing with reluctant feet On the fair bank where womanhood and childhood meet. In a sadder, deeper tone, he has thrilled your heart and mine With undying faith in that “messenger divine,” Who took the “chair beside him,” hade him cast his grief aside. Since his “Being Beauteous” once had lived and died. Whittier, with the poet’s love, his soul, and heart, and hand. Wrote oft of women of a freedom-loving hand. Those, all uncontent to move in dreary custom ' s oiled groove, Who lived that life might to a higher level move. Whittier told us, with loving heart and mighty, matchless grace. Of natures rich and full, with lovelight in the face. He told of many a maiden, who, earnest, prompt to act. Could turn every generous thought and word to fact. With tender thought and word, he made his every reed of song Sing praise to women, whom we love both well and long. Many others wrote of women, with touch so true to life. We feel the throbbing hearts through all their love and strife; But I am none of these — I can never write as they — Though to 1914 Seniors I dedicate my lay. No poet’s gift is mine, and though oft I’ve tried, and long. To reveal to you my heart. I’ve no gift of song. But when I call to mind the priceless worth of each fair maid. It seems that all the pretty things that poets wise have said Of truth, of love, of beauty, and of all the virtues fair. Would not one-half your great and wondrous grace declare. Through fleeting days you ' ve been revealed to my admiring gaze. Always conquering, by your dear, alluring ways ; Thus, a happy vision shows that your future shall be bright, ■And the world grow better by the brilliance of your light. Now, had you been Longfellow’s theme, his gentle rhyme had failed; Had Whittier knelt at your shrine, his mighty heart had quailed ; Had others sung in birdlike notes, with nature’s cadence swelling. Your beauty, and your worth, would still find need of telling. The greatest bard, the one most learned in rhythmic lore. At your shrine could only kneel, and, kneeling there, adore. Bessie Cubine, F.

It is the class. Its memhers can boast of more ingenuity, more originality, and more good looks than any other class that has ever been enrolled at “Sullins.” Although every class that has ever enter ed this noble insti- tution has carried on a strenuous and active warfare with books, ours has been by far the most successful. It was not long after entering, in Se])temher, before the “Battle of Books began. The first decisive battle is known as the “Battle of First Examinations,” which was fought in January. Some were mentally wounded, hut we succeeded in routing “Paradise Lost” and in putting “Livy” to flight. . fter that there were several little skirmishes in which the Juniors showed their determination to be victorious. One of these was the “Battle of Basket-Ball,” waged between the Seniors and the Juniors on Thanksgiving Day. d ' he battle was very exciting, both sides confident of victory: however, after a desperate struggle, the Seniors were the victorious ones. But why should the Juni( ' )rs weep wer this one small defeat when thev were so soon “To come into their own again?” This was when they engaged in the “Battle of Hearts” on AHlentine Day. The Seniors were again their opponents. Great preparations were made by the Juniors the day before this great event was to take place, and all were eager for the time to come. Both sides did such good fighting in this contest that the battle was undecisive. If we had time to write a life history of each of the warriors enlisted in the Junior regiment we would indeed have interesting biographies: but as it would take too much space to record an account of all the exploits of every one ( and, besides, make the other regiments appear insignificant) we shall give only sketches of each. Nan Jackson, our “captain,” is as renowned as “Stonewall” himself. Her beauty is her strong defense, and she is concpieror of many hearts. Vith indomitable will, and a matchless magnetism, she will lead her regiment victori(Xisly on to the “fields of Seniorhood. 06 EOS Eiyry KTir l ' annie Lois Yawn liapi)ens to liold two positions, those of “adjutant- general” and “chaplain.” She is an early (?) riser, and you can always find her at “morning watch.” In future years, we expect her to be classed among the greatest musicians of the world. Hope Stallings, our first lieutenant, means even more to us than her name implies. Her strong armor is the bright way she has of looking on all difficulties, and she has, indeed, imparted “hope” into the despondent heart of many a weary soldier. Len Privett is our commander de pecunia.” There is oue peculiar thing about her position, howe er — it demands that we pay her continually instead of receiving anything in payment for ourselves. P)Ut we do not object to parting with our “filthy lucre” when a soldier with such winning ways and charming manner collects it. ’etta Lee Sohotka, the poet, has many a time inspired the soldier with her stirring ballad. Besides marching at the head of the troops, after the manner of famous Spartanbard, she is given to beguiling the tedium of the evenings about the ca’in])-fire with man-elous narratives spun from her lively imagination. Hazel Bruce, a very staunch and bra e member of our regiment, and who is a native of “Ole drginny,” hasn ' t decided for which she will do her most valiant work, ] liss Allen’s comi)any or our regiment; hut she is good in both. . nother one of our several nrgina soldiers, who enlisted this year in the Junior regiment, is Margie Catron. She is full of wit and humor and can alwavs be found in the fun-seeking cpiarters. Once her “great hobby” was giving away “cherry wine” (?) to many of the disabled soldiers of the company. She is truly a valualde addition to the Juniors. The loyal heart and Irish wit of Sue Ellen Delaney easily make her one of the valuable and popular “men” of the company. She is always firing her fellow-soldiers with fun and courage. Bessie Mae Edmonson is one of those (juiet, steady-going soldiers who worships daily at the shrine of her captain. She is invaluable to our regi- ment, as she is strong and persevering, and ardently believes that “Wissen- schaft ist die beste Kroft.” WKO S E IA.PCYS® A irginia Godwin is our noble “commissary clerk. She can always inform one of ice cream and oyster nights, and when the fare is not forth- coming it is she who reports to “headc|uarters. Like that valient soldier of Shakespeare, Pistol, Nannie Sue Hoge “says more than she knows and thinks more than .she says.” It is not always an empty wagon that rattles. Margaret Haynes is one of those sturdy soldiers who enters the battles of every day without complaint. She is always cheerful, hut she would he better satisfied if “Herb and Chif could share the glory of her constant victories. Corinne Lamb — our little “lamb — is a living example of meekness (?) and docility ( ?). She will go down in Sullins history as famous because of the helmet she daily and nightly wears upon her head. Elizabeth Neff is another one of the Virginia soldiers who is well worthy of the name of her ancestors. One can always find her mastering the greatest difficulties of the ranks. We have no soldier who knows more or says less. We are well represented by Parsons — in “Violet.” No matter how greatly we are disc(.)uraged her bright smile and happy disposition make her even more than the flower of the regiment : she seems to he the very heart and soul of it. iMaude Reynolds has kept “winter Cjuarters at Sullins longer than any soldier in the ranks. She is ready to combat with e ' ery duty, hut has an insuperable aversion to the barracks of the Bible room. Another soldier persevering, l)rave, and true is Hoyt Raymond ; hut we are sorry (?) to inform you that she is from Mississippi ! If “Hot” could win all of her battles by singing, her victories would he easy ones. Rose Nell Sawyer, known as “Nell Rose,” because we like to allude to that color that corresponds to the l: rightness of her mind, is a warrior with- out whom our hand would he much weaker. She is continually trying to convince us that she doesn’t know when we know that she does. A brave, unassuming little soldier is iMattie Straley. It seems that all of her efiforts easily turn into victories. She is quiet, hut deeper than you think. G8 KO S EIMAK. ' V Alice Thompson is so skilled in the art of warfare that reading the works of lAz ' y and Tacitus is hnt a recreation for her; “Trig” is one of her. chief delights also! Her triumphs are not always easy ones, but they are many. Lydie Williams is one of the most worth-while soldiers in the regiment. Her lightness of heart and fun-loving ways are simi)ly contagions, and it does one good just to look at her. She towers above all of her fellows — in height ! I ' here is but one Lydie Williams in the whole wide world. Iris Finley is forever trying to keep the world from knowing what .she is doing, but we aren’t afraid she’ll be lost in oblivion soon. Her “long suit” is Fxpression, and even .sbe doesn’t recognize herself in dialect. d ' he writer is an Alabamian, likewise from Ozark. As to the part that she plays in the history of the class, we will leave it to our friends and the public to judge.

All these differ among themselves in laws, in customs, and in dress. The Town Pupils are separated from the Boarders hy two rivers, the Fhiiform and Chaperon. Of all these the hra est are the Boarders, because they are farthest from the gayety and frivolity of the world and go least often where merchants display their wares, and where they find luxuries which tend to weaken the spirit; alscj the ' li e near the I ' aculty. with whom they constantly wage war. I ' or the same reason the d ' own Pupils also excel in courage, since they, too, contend with the Faculty. The part of the country which is inhabited hy the Faculty is a land of great charm, because it is traversed by three beautiful rivers, toward whose sparkling waters the Boarders turn longing eyes — the Hat, the Visitor, and, a tributary of the latter, the lo ely stream of isits-to-Friends. The blue waters of the Sea of Shopping wash the .shores of this country, adding greatly to its attractions. The region inhabited by the Town Pupils is somewhat less attractive, for biting winds from the sea of Recitations sweep across it; but towards evening these winds cease to blow, and flowers c)f joy lift their drooping heads.

ITH an alarm-clock on one side of yon, and a voice over there yelling, “Get np, yon mutt, it is twelve o’clock.” All was soon astir. ( Ves, we may add. teachers, too, though we didn’t know it at the time. ) Before a teacher could possible creep forth, dust pans, horns, tin pans, and voices blended in one harmonious chord ( ?), and we all sped toward the meeting place. But. lo ! before the haven could he reached, a voice accompanied by footsteps, un- mistakable to our trained ears, was heard resounding through the halls. Oh, it’s iNliss iNlooney!” one said. This was sufficient to (juiet the storm. To find a hiding place before she reached the fatal spot was the uppermost thought in every one’s mind. “Oh! where can I get; hide me quick,” was heard on every side. “Xo. you mutt. I have to hide myself,” and, at this, about fifty went rolling under Margaret’s bed, forty more scrambled behind the screen, and a host crammed themseh ' es. like sardines, in the wardrobe. Only one remained on the outside ; poor Lyd ! was having a battle royal with a rat for the possession of the trash basket. She refused to get in so long as he remained on the inside, and he refused to get out so long as she stood on the outside. By much persuasion ( ? ) she finally got him to yield the place to her just as a stentorian voice rang through the lower hall, and we just knew it was Miss Mooney hailing some of the stragglers, who had failed to obey the summons of the alarm-clock as soon as they should. We were all shivering with fear, and our hearts were heating like hammers; we were sure they were thumping loud enough to guide any one to our hiding place ; and we knew our time was coming ne.xt. But. no, it was not iNIiss iMooney, only a substitute. !Mrs. House walked in and gave the command: “Miss Mooney wants all young ladies in her room immediately.” Our relief then was only temporary, and there arose a mighty groan, sigh, and wail from wardrobe, door, and trash basket, as we rolled forth and prepared to march to our doom. Then there arose another difficulty ; who was to lead this procession? Ifveryhody yelled. “Lyd, you go first ; 153 ROSE ]yr A.I3LY Jinnie you go on with lier.” We all had such confidence in these two daring youths! So after some parleying we all went straggling in, with Lyd and Jinnie in the lead. Miss IMooney ' s invitation was indeed gracious, as her room only accom- modates one or two besides herself, and we began to look around for a place to sit, stand or lie. Young ladies, yon do not need to be at all particnlar where yon place yourselves; after this disgraceful performance yon should all feel small enough to squeeze yourselves in most anywhere,” remarked Miss Mooney, as she noticed our glances and hesitancy about passing the threshold of her room. At last we were all in, and waiting with bated breath for the storm to fall. M e knew it was coming, for we could hear the distant rumbling of thunder. Young ladies, it seems you have all been stricken with a dreadful case (rf insomnia to-night, and the only remedy I know of is to repair to the chapel for a few hours; so we will now proceed.” (Goodness, it was one o’clock then ! ) W’ill one of you look in the right-hand corner of the upper left-hand drawer and hand me my scarf? I must not take cold right on the eve of the Christmas holidays. Grace, please look under the bed and hand me my high shoes — the old ones, please. Sallie, hand me my long coat out of the wardrobe, I must wrap up.” After these preliminaries had been satis- factorily attended to, the procession, headed by our dear IMiss Mooney, solemnly marched to the chapel. It might have been well if we had attended to a few preliminaries also ; such a motley crew we were ! Some in kimonos, some in bathrobes, others with blankets and comforts around them in true Indian fashion. Eyes about half open, hair done up in curl papers, or dying- loose, and an air of dejection over all. Before we were half seated in the chapel the discourse began; “Quiet, girls, the next young lady who speaks will be sent home in the morning.” This was too much real fun ; a giggle and a ha ! ha ! were the echoes. “ mean this, young ladies. Were there any girls in this midnight carousal who are not down here?” “Yes, Miss Mooney, Nannie Sue sent her regrets, said she was sorry she couldn’t join in the fun, but she was sick, and Sue, too.” “So I suppose I shall consider them among this number?” “Oh, yes, yes’m !” ROSE lyr AiCY® “V ery well; there seems to be a spirit of rebellion in school, especially among the Seniors — just look, over half the Seniors are in this awfnl escapade! I will quell it; yes, 1 will! X ever in all my many years’ teaching have I ever had anything like this. Therefore, I am at a loss to know jnst what ])nnishment to mete out to yon.” ( Punishment? Why, we were sitting there freezing to death at three o’clock in the mornimj, wasn’t that pnnish- ment enough?) “Pnt a warning I give yon now, if you dare to repeat this offence, a punishment equal to the occasion will he administered. You may, now, all go quietly to your rooms. It is not long until the rising bell, and let me say right here I want to see every place at the table filled this morning; no absences will he excused !” W’e all went quietly to our somniferous apartments,” but were too excited to “somnif’’ very much. At breakfast that morning every one was there on time, even to Nell and Violet, and all looking as if we had had hours to dress in, so neatly attired were we. So, after all, the Trot was a success. Because for breakfast we had time to dress! Sarah Park House, ’14, F. L. S. 155 K O S E MC APCV Limericks There was a young lady named Gladys, She will give you a smile free, gratis.

There was a young lady named Beth, She wanted a beau named Seth, She cried and surmised, .- nd finally got “W ise” — He loves this young lady to death. There was a young lady named Sallie, W ith Melton she always kept tally, For he was a Sport, F ' rom Emory ' s report, For Melton was crazy ’bout Sallie. There was a young lady named Eva; Listen, you ' d not believe her When she says she has a beau ; You may think it’s not so, But this girl is not a deceiver.

But she is quite a poet, Although you don’t know it, She gives all her money to Kress. 156 ROSE r-T There was a young lady named Myrt ; When Fred did not see her it hurt — She turned right around And started downtown, Hut you know that this girl is not a flirt.

There was a young lady named Nell; She cast every boy in a spell ; She has her a head. Her brains are not dead When it comes to the nine-thirty bell. 1 ' bere was a young lady named Mary ; Some people call her contrary. But we don’t agree — You are very much at sea About this young lady named Mary.

There was a young lady named Dix : She was always up to some tricks ; She led the whole school, As was her rule — Vt)U never could “get one on Dix. There was a young lady — Alma McCoy — Indeed, she’s a maiden chuck full of joy; She’s a wonderful reader. For we have all “seed her,” And to think, she never cared for a boy. There was a young lady named Willette; She’s a bird, you bet ! She was always behind ; She liked to drink wine — Likely she’s drinking it yet. There was a young lady named Mutt, Her lessons she never did cut ; She was very small. And not very tall, This is why they call her Mutt. 158 CURRENT EVENTS This paper lias a larger circulation than anj ' other in the South A Condensed Newspaper for use in wrapping Inindles, etc. VoL. 1 SULLINS, FRIDAY, FEH. 6, 1914 No. 8 VACCINATION ALL THE RAGE ■ number of Sullinsites have been suffering from vaccination. Miss Beth Branham was kept in her room for several days, her only consolation being that she escaped reading ‘‘Bimi.’ Misses Steele and Fillinger, also, were vaccinated, the re- sult being that the Latin and Science classes received a much-needed rest. Miss Mary Worley ' s arm has been on exhibition every day in the library from eleven to twelve. SENIOR QUILT FUND GROWING Amount Now Collected, $9.60 The quilt fund now amounts to $9.60. When the $10 mark shall have been reached, which development is expected in the next two weeks, the fund will he de- posited in one of the hanks of the city. The Seniors have not yet decided to what pur- pose they will put this vast sum, but it is rumored that the majority are in favor of cither papering the chapel or installing an elevator. GREAT EXCITEMENT Photographer Arrives from Lynchburg Sullins has been in a tre- mendous stew for the last few days. Everybody has been in a nervous flutter at the prospect of having a pic- ture made. We say prospect, advisedly, for, for a time, the reality seemed in the distant future, indeed. How- ever, the delays and changes in plans were meant merely to give the Seniors time to decide which shirtwaist to wear, and also to practice putting on the robe. Misses Mary Goodell, Bessie Cuhine, and Annie Whatley, dressed for the ordeal three times each before they at last had the relief of knowing that “it was over.” TRIP TO WASHINGTON PLANNED The great trip to Washing- ton has all been planned. It has been explained three times, and this announce- ment is put in CuKRENi Events that you may thoroughly understand the matter. number of young ladies took the trip last year and are enthusiastic over it It is intended to spend three days in Washington visiting the “movies and the place where Uncle Sam keeps his dead letters, his congress- men, and other nuisances. Stops will be made at Manassas, Second Manassas, and Luray Caverns. It will he a great pleasure jaunt. BIG INFORMAL Preceded by Recital by Colleges of Music and Expression Sullins was the scene of gaiety and revelry last Satur- day night, when the fair college maids entertained at an informal. .A recital by the colleges of music and expression constituted a pleasant little opening for the affair. 159 CURRENT EVENTS DR. NEIGHBORS PLEASED WITH CHAPEL AT- TENDANCE Dr. Neighbors announced in chapel a few days ago that he was delighted to note the excellent chapel attendance. He remarked that for the en- tire 3 ' ear the girls had shown a beautiful respect by attend- ing every morning in almost full force. (Does he know of the little red books?) SULLINS COLLEGE EM- PLOYMENT AGENCY (Any firm desiring to associate themselves with a good, reliable young person, should apply to us. Our success is settled, and our reputation is secure, since, for forty years, we have offered to the public Sullins girls only, thereby eliminat- ing the possibility of supply- ing any business house with an unsatisfactory employee. This week two young ladies have entered their names with us. W ' e guaran- tee them to be fully up to the standard set by all our previous clients.) Beth” Br. ' nh.xm This young lady has been with us for two years, and we do not hesitate to recommend her fully. She desires a position in comic opera. She has had wide experience, having sung through the Methodist Hymnal twice. Bessie Cuiiine W’e advise any candidate for office who happens to be short a solicitor to see Miss Cuhine. The number of names for the Senior Quilt, which she collected in one day, proves her a genius in the canvassing line. IN THE SOCIAL WORLD OF SULLINS Miss Ruby McDowell was the hostess at a charming little affair when she enter- tained the pedagogy class at a Dutch luncheon, compli- mentary to her “.Aunt Eva.” I consider Current Events worthy of any English Class.

Poe “The Lady or the Tiger,” Stockton SENIORS NOT ALLOWED TO READ THIS ARTICLE It is rumored that the Juniors contemplate entertain- ing in honor of the Seniors. The matter is being kept a profound secret in order to give the “grave and reverend ones” a delightful surprise. OUR QUESTION BOX Why do people snore out loud while sleeping? Sallie Pouter. Alls.: Because snoring inaudihly has no precedent. If so, it is lost in the obscurity of antedeluvian times, whereas, snoring “out loud” has the advantage of long standing. .-Ml conservatives naturally prefer the latter method. What makes the stone in my class ring look greener after my wearing it a while? A Senior. Alls.: This phenomenon might possibly be classed as the result of association. What is the difference between a job and a position? Ruby McDowell, Alls.: A position is what you want; a job is what you get. Please give me a good definition for love. M. W. Alts.: As our definition would be too glowing to print in a sensible paper, we can not answer this question. However, we refer you to Ethel Carr, Lucy Edmonson, and Mary Irwin Anderson. 1()2 CURRICXT KYKNTS DO YOU WANT to perfect yourself in the use of slang?

Wd arose early to make the day that was ours seem kmger, and, perhaps, the maxim, “liarly to rise” came to onr minds that it might make ns wiser in devising pranks. Three o ' clock found Snllins ])eacefnlly sleeping save, ])erhaps, for a few, who, fearing they might miss the fun, had scarcely closed but one eye during the night. Three-thirty came, squeaky doors, and boards that fairly howled gave evidence of the great day that was coming. With dainty tread we filed into Lyd’s room to plan the campaign. Ropes were called for and teachers were assigned to different squads to be tied in lest they mar this glorious day. Naturally onr first feat was the tying of Miss Mooney in her “somniferous apartments.” Others came in with reports that Miss Allen and Miss “Chalk” Simpson had shared the same fate with one rope, this Ireing an easy job, their rooms l)eing o])i)osite each other. Who can excel the thoughtfulness of Misses h ' illinger and Steele in having removed their doorknob. But were we discouraged? Ne er! They were tied securely. Oh, the excitement of capturing iMiss “China” Simpson ! She having two means of escaj)e involved more work. “An ounce of caution is worth a pound of cure.” Owing to this fact, and the position of Miss Thurman’s door, it became necessary that the inncjcent must suffer. She, however, seemed to resent this from the amount of walnuts that she hurled from her transom, or, perhaps, we misunderstood her motive; she may have only been sorry for us in working so hard, and was serving light refreshments. In a like manner all of the faculty were securely fastened in, we felt sorry for them ; they have worked hard trying to put more wrinkles into our gray matter, and, now, that this was the day that all knowledge was to be laid aside, we would not have them discouraged, so it was l)est they have the rest. While seeking other material to work upon, we were amazed to find in our very midst a ghost from ghost alley! But this proved to be a very pleasant ghost, and was easily led back to ber room and trunks were piled up so that Mademoiselle could not escape. EOS E1MA.FCV Oh, that place where we ac(|uire (nir wisdom — study liall ! Parsons” suggested we hide the lights, and as there was hut one in our midst that was soon accomplislied. In the art of unlocking lights with a hairpin duty called Mary W ' orley forth and she responded nohly. Song books were gathered, and, with the lights, were given a hack seat in the gallery. Calls were made for volunteers to rouse the sleepy heads from their beds of ease, or else let them sleep peacefully on till breakfast bell, then discover they, alas! were destined to survive through the day without the nourishing hash. W ' ould that I had words to wield the flight of Myrtle over her transom; with one look before her and one in front she leaped the mighty bounds that stood between her and liberty. Here must he related the agility of Mrs. House; they say ' twas marvelous to behold her art in climbing over pianos and trunks of any number. Surely this lady must have had excellent training in the gymnasium. Rising hell rang, reminding us that a toilet must he made suitable for the occasion, so we burred off to our rooms. Here must we pause to give description of a fnx ' k that should be adopted by all nations on April 1st. A middy is a most useful thing, and can be made a thing of beauty if worn backwards; this with a college cap set jauntily on one side the head, with a veil floating gracefully behind, is indeed pleasing. But the simplicity of the hair pleases all alike. Smoothed back from our noble foreheads it was plaited in a long ( ?) graceful plait; we were, indeed, charming. On reaching the dining-room we were amazed (?) to find our implements of warfare co nsisted of a lone knife. Scrambles were made to obtain the few forks that had been hidden away from the thief ' s eye. ( Per- haps they had been in Sullins on other April Fool Days and were wise. ) Joyous exclamations were made on being told it was, indeed, our day, and all work was suspended until April 2d arrived safe. On the strength of this good news we unbarred doors and set our prisoners at liberty. The day passed with much fun and frolic. On being assembled for dinner we saw a long table which we were told was faculty table. Xow the fun really came when Dr. Neighbors gravely walked in and took his position at the head of the table, but on closer obser- vation we found it to be Turner. Next came “Mother” and who could carry this part so successfully hut Nan Jackson? Professor Alberti and Miss Little being well impersonated by Lyde and Ifrmyne.

Dr. Summers, with his perpetual Knob announcements, was taken hv Cate Brown, and by his side walked ] Iiss Mooney, who, of course, we knew was Edith from the practice she had had. Grace Barnett as Professor Bodell fulfilled her ])art by being thoughtful of “Kitty ” The Carlock family was in our midst, well taken by Myrt as Dr. Carlock, Gladys as “Beautiful,” and Hoyt as the daughter. Miss Fillinger, with her hunch of keys and two muft ' ins. proved to he Nannie Sue Hoge, and her shadow. Miss Steele, was Sallie Susong. Miss “China” Simpson with her rolls, was, of course, Dot Bell, and Virginia Godwin as Aliss “Chalk” Simpson. Mademoiselle and Miss Epsy, entering arm and arm. by closer inspection were Thelma and Yetta Lee. h ' an Lois as Mrs. House, and Alma as Miss Allen completed our “faculty” amid much laughter. After dinner the “faculty” strolled the campus until study hall hell. I hen came the excitement, all was dark save for one light. iMiss Mooney ' s questions concerning the lights took many of us to the front seat for a further interview. As we were all sleepy, study hall was dismissed, and we were told to retire and call hack to mind by sleep the wisdom we had put aside before the dawn of April 2nd and Senior English. Lucille Eiffert, ’14, C. L. S. 168 EOS EMAK. ' YSH An Old “Bishop” in Wonderland X a bright day an old Bishop started out early one Mundy morn- ing at a fast Canter, with his English hook under one arm and his prayer-hook under the other. He carried along with him a sack of corn on the Kolb for his horse, as he was going on a Long journey, and expected to he gone all Day. Just as he came out of a Stubblefield he met a Mann leading a Lamb that was chewing sweet Willianis along the road. He inquired of the man what he intended doing with the animal, and recei ' ed the reply that it had been kept on Goodpasture for a long time and was now being led to Slaughter. Going on a short distance, the Bishop met two Counts, who offered him a good price for his horse. As the beast had worried him a great deal by floundering about in the Myer{s), and, as he considered Udwt{le ) a good bargain he would make, the old Bishop sold the horse. After he had gone some little way he asked a friend the nearest road to the city, and the friend directed him to a nearby railway station. Just before the train pulled in, he met two Parsons who were going to the same city, and the three took their Scat-on the same side of the Carr. They had traveled some little time when they were joined by a worldly ( U ' orlcy) looking gentle- man who offered each one A-kard, and ordered the Porter to bring wine, which refershed them very much. They spent the remainder of the ride in an interesting Little chat on the “Subject of Religion.” They were disturbed only once, and then by a commotion at the door of the car, which they after- wards learned was caused by some one trying to Steele the Carloek. When thev reached the city the Parsons and the other gentleman went to their destinations leaving the old Bishop to travel the streets alone. He was very tired and made an E{ i)ffert to catch a car, but they were all going in the wrong direction. It was getting rather late when he heard the Bell of a church, and he longed to go in ; but something seemed to say to him, Move on. d ' here had been a big circus in the city that day and he had seen a Bnnon UAlfe and many other wild animals which he was interested in, but it was beginning to Hale and the air was getting Cole, so he was ol)liged to ])ass on 1(19 ROSE M APCV without seeing ' the entire circus. After he had passed the outskirts of the city and was entirely out of sight he came upon an old well-house, and, being- very thirsty, he entered and drew himself a drink from the deep Black-wcU. W ' hen he came out to the road again the only sound he heard was the wail of a Home which a little boy was blowing, and the poor Bishop felt lonely indeed. The boy, showing his good Brccdiiuj by respectfully lifting his cap, directed him to Tuni-cr corner and go to the large house which he could E-spv on the hillside. When he reached it, he found that an old friend of his, a Sa vycr by trade, was living there. They were elated over the idea of seeing each other again. In a short time supper was served, and during the meal the conver- sation turned upon many interesting topics, from the Sphinx (Finks) to Love. Among other things, they were served Nciobcrry pie, the first of the season. After sui per the host noticed his guest stifie a Yaivn and asked if he would retire, saying that he would be forced to sleep in the Garrett, or go to the house of one of the Neighbors. He thanked the gentleman for his cordial invitation, hut told his friend that it was against his Rule to keep his family in suspense. So he started out into the night on his journey back home. His friend pulled aside the window Curtin that the light from the room might shine for a while on the old churchman ' s way. Vhen he was far on the road he was seized with a •iolent Payne in the back, and would have given up in despair if the night had not been Mooney. Owing to this fact alone, the old Bishop reached home safely.

Sullins to Lady Principal, purchased a nickel-plated teakettle to use in her room, d ' he legend says nothing about the romantic charm of the kettle : that was an unknown (piality when it was pnr- irs. Hunt used the kettle two years, tired of college life, and left be married to Hon. Charles Ivy. Before leaying, she gaye the kettle to Miss Baskendlle. After two years, she married Dr. W. E. Martin. She finally gaye the kettle to Miss Smith, hut only after an effort to persuade Miss McGayock to accejg it. Miss Mc(ia ock. for some reason, refused, just su])pose — but what’s the use? Whth iMiss Smith’s possession begins the later and l)etter-known history of the kettle. She remained under its influence two years and a half; in 171 ROSE lyr A.ICV Decemlier, 1910, she gave the kettle to Miss Devereux and married Mr. W. S. Terry. In June, Miss Devereux married Mr. J. L. David. Before leaving Sullins she jiresented the charmed kettle to Miss McAdory. She kept it two years, gave it to iNliss Fillinger in May, 1913, and in October of that year married Mr. L. O. Caldwell. Miss Fillinger has had it one year. The future of the kettle is unknown, of course. The college family wonders if it is to lose i liss Fdllinger after another year, but she only smiles knowingly when questioned. However that may be. Long live the teakettle ! 172 ROSE M AR.
