NIGHT SKATING E HAD barely started the two-mile journey across VVhite Bear Lake, and I already was proceeding with some difficulty. It wasn't that I couldn't skate but that the ice was partly covered with a hard, crusty snow which stopped my skates in the black night. This made the lake appear as a huge maze through which you had to weave carefully between banks of snow to find the patches of smooth, clear ice. As I went along, however, it became easier for me, and soon I was traveling at quite a speed. My brother and one cousin had already left my elder cousin and me behind and were soon lost in the blackness. I sudden- ly realized that I was growing very warm, so I took off my mittens and scarf and unbuttoned my coat. The wind blew my hair around my face and I felt a sense of freedom. I drew in deep breaths of the warm, refreshing night air. I looked back. Close behind me came my cousin. The shore towards which we were skating was dotted at intervals with red and white lights, some of them moving slowly along. On either side of me were the dark outlines of shore which cast a mood of impending gloom about the lake. The only sound which disturbed the tranquility was the occasional noise of cracking ice, which resounded like an echo through the frozen lake. I had to keep my mind, however, very much on my skating, both to avoid the three or four-inch cracks and to dodge the hindering snow. I now noticed that my cousin had been working his way slowly up to me and was slightly in the lead. He began to skate faster and faster and soon he, too, was swallowed up in the dark. Here I was, alone on a big lakeg and not being able to see or hear a thing, I had not the faintest notion of where to go. I became bewildered and confused and was frantically wondering what to do when my brother's whistle echoed clearly through the night. BECKY DRISCOLL F mm I V MON REGIME EAUCOUP de fois, je me suis dit, Aujourd ,hui je me mets au regime. Ie dois perdre vingt livresf' Ie reste toujours au regime au moins un jour, ou deux! Bientot je mange un morceau de gateau ou des bonbons. Apres cela, jioublie mon regime et je mange tout ce que je desire. A present je suis au regime. Ilespere toujours perdre vingt livres au plus, et quinze livres au minimum. le ne mangerai pas de gziteau, de desserts, de chocolat, et de glace. Quand j'aurai fini mon regime, personne ne me reconnaitra car je serai si maigre. Les gens qui me rendent furieuse sont ceux qui disent, 'AMais, pourquoi vous mettez- vous au regime? Vous nietes pas trop grossef, lls savent bien que je suis trop grosse. Ilaimerais mieux s'ils disaient, 'KOui, il faut que vous vous mettiez au regimef, Toute nourriture me tente. Ie devrais me dire, Mary Ella, desirez-vous etre maigre ou grosse?,' Depuis que je desire etre maigre, je ne mange pas de bonne nourriture. Quelquefois la tentation est trop grande et je mange et mange jusqula ce que mon estomac soit plein. Aux soirees la tentation est la plus grande. Quand je vois mes amies qui mangent de bons gouters, je ne peux pas resister, et j'oublie mon regime. Mais je ne suis pas triste parce que demain, la semaine prochaine, ou le mois prochain, je me mettrai de nouveau au regime. MARY ELLA CARPENTER Form IV 26

Briefly stated they are: Qlj Something mueh worse might have been invented. QQQ The pencil sharpener business would lail. I have tried fountain pens. but these, too, prove very unsatisl'ac'tory. They are extremely messy and spurt ink all over my hands and the paper. That is a point in lavor ol' pencil sharpeners. lor they at least are clean. unless they have just been oiled. Therelore l can suggest only one thing to those who must endure the same trouble as I, and tl1at is a rather recent invention, the automatic pencil.

MARY WELLS Glueos Form IV EVENING The shadows lengthen on the hills, The wind forgets to blow, And nearby in the still XfVe hear the shepherd's call. YVisps of clouds like sunlit sighs Drift aimless in the skies. And the night, caught by surprise, Sends forth the evening stars. The mist steals softly on the air Through each forest glen, and where On ll rise, a timid stag stops to gaze At the fierce sun's dying rays, Before it leaves the azure skies, To make way for the night.
