u THE TOWER LIGHT The Storm Now all is calmg It is a calm that brings alarm and fear. The air is stillg I see afar a cloud approaching fast. The light grows dim, The sun now hides in fear behind the cloud. I see the rain That falls in sheets before the wind that drives Hither and yon. - Another cloud now joins the one observed, A lighter hue P It is, but seems almost as menacing. Now comes the wind That whips around the house, but soon retreats, Again it comes, Bringing the cooling rain long needed here. The rain beats down, The steam arises from the pavement hot. A sudden flash Of lightning comes, disturbing my repose. The thunder roarsg How mad it seems to make such awful sound! The wind that comes To me smells dank, is cool and fresh. The rain slackensg Onward the cloud is blown before the never-tiring wind. A part covers me still but all that's left Is scattered wide. The light returns as clouds disperse afar, Only to fade Again, as sunset brings the close of day. ELEANOR BoUNDs, Jn., 4 17

THE TOWER LIGHT Alumni Notes LEVEN former graduates have returned to the school this year, to take the additional year oifered them. Now, the problem is,- are THE ELEVEN Alumni, or are they mere students? Must they be treated with the respect and veneration due those of advanced years and ripened wisdom, or may one knock them down while rushing into the library, and stand on their toes on crowded street cars Qas one would naturally do with men studentsj? If it is decided that these Eleven belong to the state of Alumni, then you must not address them as Hey, you! , but call them prettily by name. For your edification we print their names below. Doris Deppenbrock Mary Di Marcantonio Virginia Weinland Margaret Ijams Catherine Pistel Gwendolyn Michael Mary Muller Dorothy Washburne Ruth Bohanon Virginia Evans Anne Sugar We are told that Pat Stinchcum and Martha Alford go roller skating about town-getting childish experience first hand? Virginia Beach writes from Florida that she basks in the sun, all the time. We will envy her this winter, when we don our galoshes. Edward Gersuk took some summer courses at Columbia, during vacation. Luella Klug, Gladys Krause, Martha Alford, Dorothy Berndt and Mary Douglas had a most delightful trip in a row boat, on the Severn River. The greater part of the day was spent in pursuing a circular motion, from all accounts. They say the trouble was a pair of mis- matched oars. 19
