Her self- - + realization can be accomplished only as she fosters W fa a spirit ofcomradeship and co-operation With each R ' ,J .f ' of the other classes. We must all be co-Workers, ' With Wisdom to counsel, Willingness to learn, perse- ' ' 4 verance to Work, and a steady Will to achieve. - 4. It Will be through making the ordinary circum- stances of each day contribute to our complete - 'l t'- development that We shall become efhcient indi- viduals, and so ellicient co-Workers. Then, and only then, can We make our class an influence for culture and fair-mindedness. The policy of our class is identical With that of our college-to promote high scholarship and such social relations as Will stimulate and directly benefit each girl in our community. Honor of scholarship, Which is a permanent element We hope to emphasize in college, Will be gained through social as Well as through intellectual honesty. The test of poWer in scholarship is not Whether We are better than some other class, but Whether We are living up to the best of Which We are capable, and expending our efforts Wisely. Perhaps the qualities that give Nineteen Eight the best claim to leadership, are steadiness and liberal mindedness, qualities equally far from conservatism and radicalism. We favor a constructive principle of reform With the idea of perfecting the organs through Which the college life finds expression, in order that they may perform their function more completely. One example of good functioning is seen in the solidarity of Nineteen Eight. ln our class meetings We present, discuss and formu- late many ideas and plans Which are put into action through the medium of various other college organizations. We have learned that in order to SQ VASSARION institute any permanent improvement We must not only be convinced of its Wisdom, but We must seek the co-operation of the other classes. The introduction of permanent Wall-decorations into Senior Parlor stands, and Will staiifd, as a practical example of this fact. Moreover Nineteen Eight is realizing her greatest gain through honoring fellowship With all classes and extending her interest and sympathy beyond her sister class, who is especially bound to her by tradition, to Nineteen Nine and Nineteen Eleven. The natural place for a Senior Class is at the top because she has had the opportunity for a broader experience. We hold before us the thought that there is no place for us in this college except at the top and We must do team Work there. We would be for one another and for Vassar College. Whatever the Class of Nineteen Eight of Vassar College may accomplish through this year will be due not only to her ovvn efforts, but to the fresh inspiration she gets from Nineteen Eleven, the fellowship and support she gets from Nineteen Ten, and the intelligent interest and co- operation she gets from Nineteen Nine. omit.

If we are adequately to further the best interests of the students, we must not be egoistic, but rather altruistic, and so, throughout, the Students' Association aims to help all its members. In order to do this we, as members, must think and act as may be most in accordance with the good of the others. We must do all in our power as individuals, and as a group, to aid in mutual helpfulness, which becomes the basis for all the association rules, and is the reason for the two new committees of this year-the Social Engagement and Census Bureau. In our quiet hoursl' rules, in our attempt to regulate the offices a girl may hold, and in our attempt to arrange the calendar of non-academic events, we are working, not on an arbitrary principle of cutting into a girl's freedom, but quite to the contrary, on the principle of helpfulness. But even this purpose grows out of that most fundamental one of furthering the best interests of Vassar College. We,'as individuals and as an organization, are entrusted with the honor and the reputation of our Alma Mater, and are pledged to do all in our power to keep these pure and spotless, raising and ennobling them if possible. fhaay fifiacualtm, 2344-way fmt.

We began the year eagerly, full of the enthusiasm . gained at the Silver Bay Conference, and what that ,-UN , means only those who have been there can realize. ' 1,4 out more about that perfect life, and, second, to put . .XX I J S' .X . ,I It is a glorious awakening for the unbeliever, a mighty stimulus for the back-slider, and for the open-minded Christian girl it means a deepening and enriching of her experience which will influence her life long after she leaves college. Spurred on by this initial inspiration, we continued, throughout the year, the regular Thursday and Sunday evening prayer-meetings, with outside speakers once a month. Further- more, the number of Bible classes was double that of last year. In so far, therefore, we have striven to know the Christ-life better, and upon this basis have developed the second part of our aim, namely, to carry out that life by dehnite work. This work has been managed, as in previous years, under three main divisions. The work in Poughkeepsie was undertaken with great enthusiasm, more girls applied than could be provided with permanent duties. The work among the college maids, with its usual unique interest, has been progressing. We have sent boxes and dolls to gladden many sad little hearts at Christmas time. An eager spirit to help has pervaded every activity of the Association, and we have endeavored in these various ways to follow the Christ-life. Qur Missionary department has had its own especial duties. The Mission Study classes have been organized as usual. The Japan mission VASSARION '79 movement, started some time ago, has slowly but surely developed, and We hope that We shall soon have a Vassar representative stationed in Tokio. Through all the year the Christ-life has been our ideal, the Christ-hand has been in ours to guide us. NOW, as the year dravvs to a close, We gladly give to Him the glory of Whatever We may have accomplished, and press on, believing that We can do all things through Christ Which strength- eneth us.

This has been formulated as H an endeavor to provide a '- much-needed change from the routine of college lifef, I Q It is recreation in the true sense ofthe Word. The difhculty - ' lies in realizing the breadth of this aim in our Work. It must be accomplished through the Dance and the four Hall Plays. First of all comes the choice of plays. They must be, primarily, such as Will be enjoyed by the audience. This means that they must be Within our scope of presentation, No matter hovv great a play is, there can be no pleasure in seeing it poorly performed, and only harm can result from the belittling of the characters that neces- sarily follows such a performance. We must, therefore, bear in mind our material, our very scanty mechanical devices, and the fact that no girl in college can' possibly have had the experience of life or the training in dramatic technique that Would enable her to play certain parts. We Want to choose plays that the girls, after only three Weeks of rehearsal, Will be able to give to us With real force and meaning, and not as a nervous straining after an impossible ideal. But We Want to be sure that the plays We choose have real force and meaning, and are not the sort of amusement that evokes merely a contemptuous smile, and cannot at all develop a fine dramatic taste. It is not fair to put in so much Work for such a result. Our aim, then, on the side of the audience, is recreation through a selection that 84 VASSARION Will enable us to give adequately plays that Will be of real pleasure and in- terest to them. A On the side of actors and committees also, We Want the Work to be recreative and not a severe strain. As much as through the choice of plays this can be accomplished through the spirit of good fellowship and enthusiasm in cast and committee, all Working tovvard a common end with real delight in all that it offers in its Work, its fun and its friendships. All the parts in each play are open for trial, and until everyone Who Wishes has tried, no one is asked to do so. By this method, justice in the assignment of parts is assured. The critical committee performs the same function that it did last year, inspiring us by the freshness of its outside view-point when We are tempted to lag. ln the chapters, the need is felt of a closer bond between them and the rest ofthe organization, and of a surer means of discovering and developing through them material for the Hall Plays. ' So this year, we have tried to makeilnhil. play a vital part in realizing the highest aim of the college through giving good plays, Well, with love of the Work, enjoyment of the fun, and a spirit of broadening, discerning, appreciative criticism on the part of every member of the society.

Athletic games, as we aim to have them played, bring out the best that is in us. They develop keenness of perception, quickness of action, and best of all, that large spirit of fairness which is the life of true sport. Class and College spirit each play their part, but this embraces and trancends them both, and is something to carry into our daily life here and elsewhere. Athletics are, morever, one of the strongest unifying forces in college life, for they bring all the classes together with a common aim. The class teams are by no means the summation of the interest and spirit of the Association, these depend on all its members, and the ever present problem is, how to furnish opportunity to all to share actively in its pleasures and benefits. If we can in any degree further the true athletic spirit and make the Association vital to all its members, the year will be a success.

WALES 100 VASSARION ut 19012 A UI VIVE has played an important part in the life of 1908, particularly during junior and Senior years, when our class Q04 has constituted its membership. Though primarily a de- WH baring society for even classes, the function of Qui Vive gg has not been limited to the training of debaters, nor its in- Q Huence to the members of even classes. lntellectually it has widened our interests by discussion of all sorts of important subjects. Socially it has increased our feeling of fellowship for the girls both of our own class and of other classes, by Working together with them for the common good of the College. It is quite natural that Qui Vive should mean a great deal to our Class because it is the one organization in which we have common intellectual interests. In our academic work our minds are directed along different lines of study. It is only in Qui Vive that every girl's attention is drawn toward one subject at one time. And further, these subjects are not forced upon any girl from one point of view. A many-sided consideration gives each girl a chance to form her own opinion. Thus individuality of opinion is emphasized without loss of that fellowship which comes from oneness of interest. The intellectual outlook of all the students in College, has been broad- ened by the work of Qui Vive and of T and M., through a sane consideration of economic questions, such as the prohibition of japanese immigration, the liability of employers for accidents to employees, and the federal control of railroad rates, and through consideration of local questions, such as the limitation of the membership of Qui Vive and the giving up of Senior Auction, as well as through the more finished work on the subjects considered in the VASSARION 101 inter-society debates. These questions, besides being of value in themselves, have been chosen with the distinct purpose of giving a comprehensive view of a large variety of topics. Qui Vive has also done something for the College in a social way. This too has been possible only through the co-operation of T. and M., for neither society could accomplish it alone. The work leading up to the inter- society debates, and finally the debates themselves, afford us an unusual opportunity to show college spirit through class spirit,-not by exhibiting an emotional excitement, but by giving a rational judgment of the subject and of the merits of the debate. These debates set a standard at which we may well aim as we carry on the ordinary work of our Society. As for our successors in Qui Vive, We hope to give IQIO the practical benefit of our experience by admitting the members ofthat class to the society early in second semester. We desire that ,Qui Vive may bring to them, and to each class which shall follow, a well-grounded feeling of fellowship and a spirit of loyalty to their class. Through the unity of the class the unity ofthe College will be strengthened. Awe :Q-.::XqQ,x'xoq3. . . ..S . , f-ix V A. fQ,xj,, l ' Y.

MILNE K5 E Q ,V :S V Q' E VASSARION 105 Qu Ilbeal for the fillistellanp ' I HE policy of the editorial staff of the M1'r- , cellany is necessarily a gradual evolution and x4 X no one year sees the initiation of radical ' ' changes. But the M1'JceZZany of IQO8 has had ' g -5 - g for its ideal to fulfil an increasingly useful A Q4 function by encouraging the expression of ' ye nascent literary ability among the students, by in summing up current tendencies in the college, E and by forming a means of communication I E and co-operation with the alurnna-2 and with is Q I other outside interests. S E The front department reflects the in- dependent literary initiative among the students. The board attempts to maintain a standard of excellence in its publications and enforces formal require- ments. But the influence of the magazine must lie for the most part in criticism of material handed in. This is given on a basis not possible be- tween instructor and pupil and is as constructive and at the same time as purely suggestive as possible. In summing up current tendencies at Vassar, the Mircellany pursues various methods. The departments of College News and of Lectures and Concerts narrate happenings for those who are not present, including the alumnze. This year the digests of lectures have been signed for the sake of promoting intelligent reporting. Book Reviews and Points of View stand for what the college is reading and thinking. The board is not responsible for opinions herein voiced, and publishes all contributions that are Vital, coher- ent and reasonably effective. These discussions have of late been directed toward topics of wider and less purely local interest. Editorials, as the 106 VASSARION board's ovvn summary ofthe college life, endeavor to discuss impartially some tendency or occurrence, to point out the significance of isolated occurrences, to connect them With others, past or present, and to suggest When possible a solution of the problem. ln short, to get at the philosophy of the diferent situations as they arise in college and present them in their bigger relations. Finally the Mz'rceIZany goes to the alumnae as the bulletin of Vassar. To them it shows the temper and interests of the student mind, the events of the college year. To us as undergraduates, it has this year brought through the Alumnae Department, criticisms and suggestions from an outside, yet sympathetic, point of vievv. Thus We profit by the experience of our pre- decessors, and in addition to learning the use to Which they are putting their college training, We can co-operate With them in Working out larger ideals for the Vassar of the future. The .Miscellany is by charter, as We have striven to make it in fact, the organ ofthe Students' Association. It is the place Where, as from the floor ofthe Association, college matters can be threshed out, only more deliberately. It is the place Where all the college activities can be correlated. In our old editor's notebook is the legend, The aim of this association shall be the dissemination of ideas. FWhose ideas? Those of the college. The Mz'rceIlany may Whip them into shape and utter them incisively. The Mz':cellany board may stamp them with editorial criticism and try to redirect the current of college thought. But the stuff of Which the magazine is made is not theirs. It is essentially of the college and What the college makes of it.

ZABRISKIE 116' VASSARION be literary Sutieties - F all the Societies which find a place in our college life, it is the literary societies which show the most wide-awake Q interest in contemporary movements both in the world of thought and of action. They stand for a perfectly 1-X spontaneous attempt to gather up those odds and ends of .4 Ulm!-A criticism and comment which are continually being ex- pressed in lively and unpremeditated discussions which are one of the delights attendant upon living in a community which is peculiarly sensitive to new impressions. ' There is a tendency to make the literary societies so informal in their organization that conformity to the prevailing interests of the college, and adaptablity to its needs are easily secured. There has been of late a growing interest in the discussion of literature which has made itself felt not only through the stronger societies, Contemporary and Czifoitas, but has given evidence of its existence as well through the revival of such discussion in Sfnafeerpaara and Dicleenr, which had deteriorated into purely social clubs worthy of nothing but extinction. Scriptorer, on the other hand, which was started in IQO5 to form a nucleus of Seniors who were most interested in writing, has been replaced by an ad- vanced writing course which has been added to the college curriculum. It is therefore doubtful whether members for next year will be elected, the purpose for which the club was organized being otherwise fulfilled. The Contemporary Club and Cz'foz'z'as are most successful in focusing discussion, the one on contemporary movements of thought, as expressed by writers of note, the other on contemporary movements in the realm of action as expressed in the general trend of events. During the present year, Con- temporary has read, and discussed the plays of Hauptmann and Sudermann and the plays and essays of Maeterlinck. Cifuzrar has studied such questions as those suggested by the panic, and by the growing interest in the subject of Forestry. The Current Topzr: Club maintained by members of IQOO, has posted on its bulletin events of current interest. Membership in both Czifuitas and Contemporary is based on application by members of the three higher classes, and both societies are worthy of hearty and enthusiastic support.

HEREVER the forms of social intercourse reach the per- fection of an art, their real object becomes apparent: to K facilitate the process of our entering into right relations with people. . D U N I ' Everyone is born into a certain set of personal relation- , ' ships. There are the next of kin, the family friends, whom the child takes for granted, using or neglecting them T according to the need or whim of the moment. We do not enquire into their real relation to us, nor pause to consider whether they merely gratify or vex our vanity, or satisfy or thwart some vital demand of our nature. We accept them as part of a changeless world, Where to-day has forgotten yesterday and projects itself into such con- sciousness as we have ofto-morrow. As our individuality begins to take distinctive shape, our acquiescence is replaced by more conscious pref- erences and rejections within the old circle, and by the impulse to extend its limits to include strangers, whom We approach and to whom we form attachments on grounds of our own personal preference. This is the time when a genuine art of intercourse would see to it that we had the opportunity to extend, under the conditions most favorable to distinc- tion, the circle of our personal ties, and would be careful to cultivate in us the ideal temper with which to meet all new-comers. This ideal temper is simply the affable one, in the true sense ofthe word, one easily spoken with. Persons with a rudimentary social sense mistake affability as an end in itself. Those with a genius for human intercourse use it as the doorway through which they pass to that knowledge of their associ- VASSARION 119 ates without which, says Leonardo da Vinci, no one may properly be said either to love or to hate. f ii. Education, in its specific sense, proposes the same happy disposition of the mind toward the world of ideas. To-day it must justify its claim to the chief part ofthe years and energy ofyouth solely by its endeavor to render the individual readily accessible to a great number and variety of ideas. Each of us approaches maturity with a certain stock of ideas Which he has received as it were ready-made from his environment. We accept them, unconsciously at first, with more or less questioning as we grow up, as having made good their claim to authority by the test of experience in our elders,- those who, preceding us by centuries or by a few years, have travelled farther than we in the vast and as yet ill-surveyed continent of human life. But the day comes when, in every active and healthy mind, acquiescence is replaced by question. The idea ceases to prevail with us on the ground that it is acceptable to others, however wise and just these others may be. Really to be preferred, really to be accepted, it must be sanctioned by us, by its capacity to fulfil our personal requirements. The choice of our ideas, so far as we do not merely fancy that they are ours, must in the end be by ourselves for ourselves. But education further seeks to cultivate in us that disposition which will enable us quickly and easily to enter into right relations with ideas. For ideas, far more than persons, require that we be affable toward them, in fairness not only to them, but to ourselves. Mere strangeness presents more obstacles to our true perception of an idea than of an individual. Instinctively we fear it more, its precise bearing is undefined, its power of imposing itself upon us may be almost limitless. But a state of panic is fatal to soundjudgment. We are under peculiar obligations, therefore, to train ourselves to alfability in the presence of a new idea, if we would dis- tinguish its meaning for us, its harmony or disagreement with the ideas we have already embraced, its possible value in our inner world. We must IQO VASSARION meet it modestly and fearlessly, Without a tinge of arrogance or servility, Without foolish enthusiasm or ignoble fear, We must look on it, as johnson says Shakespeare looked on life, Hin the highest degree curious and attentive. Life includes ideas: and it is Shakespeare Who has best expressed, in the retort of Hamlet to Horatio, the reception We oWe to Whatever, in the realm ofideas, rebuffs us by its mere strangeness, its refusal to fit into the general scheme of things in Which hitherto our ignorance has moved. Horatio, confounded by the sudden intrusion of a phenomenon for Which his learning fails to account, cries out in his perplexity, By day and night, but this is Wondrous strange! To Which Hamlet instantly rejoins, And therefore, ar a stranger, give it Welcomef, Adding, With 'an irony in Which Who is not included F- There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamed of in your philosophy. HI. It is not only the neW ideas that require that, for our highest good, We should meet them as Would people easily spoken Withf' It is just as true of the old, those We assume to be the familiar. Yet even here the emphasis may properly be laid upon our hospitable reception of What We meet for the first time. For hoW often has the stranger Whom We have admitted to intimacy, by discovering himself, revealed to us for the hrst time the truth about those concerning Whom We flattered ourselves We had nothing more to learn? Whethei' such knowledge be pleasant or painful, it Will be equally salutary, in that no genuine preference can rest upon anything but a just and fair comparison among possible objects of choice. The characteristic of the mind really affable to ideas Will be that it can entertain many Without injuring the integrity, or interfering With the free play, of any one. For such a mind has learned of z'a'e'ar to distinguishw: it knoWs that they need not all Wear the same livery in order to be in the service of the same ultimate purpose. It has learned one of the secrets of ideas,- VASSARION 121 their carelessness of the names men give to them, if only they be allowed to prevail. It remembers that what is now old once prevailed because it brought some new beauty into the horizon of man, whereby Nthe inward ser- vice of the mind and soul could grow wide withal. Such a mind moves with freedom and joy at the centre where all honest thoughts meet and discover their allegiance to the truth of experience. Such a mind is in the highest sense productive, for it is able to connect its own activity and achievement with the thoughts and achievements of othersf' to link the prophetic with the historical. a My Qmiur 1BarIu1f Qbpening OCTOBER IQ Qlummxttsc DELLA BOARDMAN CONOVER, Claazrman KATHARINE KROM MERRITT FLORENCE AUGUSTA BROWNE MARION GIBBS MILNE MARGARET TROTTER HELEN FULLAGAR RICE VIRGINIA SWINBURNE HALE VASSARION 123 'B I Hs. 19 '1 'ln fi f l l Senior ilbarlnr HE Senior Parlor satisfies many Wants.

The hangings are sold at the end of the year, but hitherto the Wall decorations have been destroyedito be replaced by the following class. 124 VASSARION It Was With an idea of abolishing this extravagant custom that We formed our plan of decoration. With the co-operation of 1909 and 1910, We have panelled the Walls in oak, which is to remain at least through the Senior year of 1910. This has been done in the hope that 1911 and suc- ceeding classes Will accept this panelling, and further develop our lplan for permanence. Oak panell-ing Was chosen as the most beautiful back- ground, and the one which Was most adaptable. Personally, it seems to me that this permanence of a background, beautiful, simple and non-committal, is a challenge to future classes toward greater effort in artistic and creative decoration. , me VASSARIO N 12 .Q ilbfeninr arlmf Sung TUNE: 'T1uz'rlcenfJa211 Ferry.

Nllmtwq extraordinarily large number of aspirants i D V for the championship. Seventy-five entries K ' 'A Ui in all were made, with the result that there was a pleasing variety in the method of playing the game. Especially prominent, however, were the long driving strokes in the singles, and the quick, vicious net-work in the doubles. This net-playing was brought to itsahighest per- fection, perhaps, by Miss Bevier, '08, vrho, with Miss Blancke, 708, contested the cham- pionship with Nliss Leech, '08, and Miss Bellatti, '09. Their sets were especially pretty, each point being desperately fought i over. I Misses Leech and Bellatti, however, although not playing as brilliantly as their opponents, won their V's by steady excel- i lence and ,fine team work. The net-playing was conspicuous in both doubles and singles-in the former by its presence, in the latter by its absence. Most vl m WINNERS or Dounuzs 130 VASSARION of the players in singles stood far back in the court, managing the ball almost from the base line. Volleys were frequent and Were always re- warded by enthusiastic comments from the side-lines, Where the spec- tators artistically grouped themselves. Hard vvork, When skillfully directed, rarely fails of accomplishing its purpose, and the anxiety of the college Was reduced fifty per cent at the announcement that for the first time in several years, it Was the finals in singles, and not in doubles Which were to go over until spring.

Steady practice went on all through October, and by the first of November the teams were picked, resulting in the appearance of a considerable number of new players on each team. 1 The first match game was played on November 9, between 1903 and 1909. It was a hard-fought game, although neither team did its best work, in Which IQOQ came off victorous with a score of 6 to 2. Un November II, 1909 played 1911, and very good team-work was done by the Juniors, who again won, the score being IO to 0. The game on November 15, between 1908 and 1910, was a victory for 1910, who won by a score 0154 to 3. This game was full of errors, owing to the poor condition of the hockey field, but 1910 did very good work. The following games were all unsatisfactory, due to the continuing muddy condition of the hockey field. On November 16, 1909 played 1910. 139 VASSARION This game was very close and exciting, and both forward lines played Well. 1909 Won by a score of 7 to 6, thus gaining the championship. On November 18, 1908 and 1911 attempted to play off their game, but it Was possible to play only one half, the second half being played on November 23. 1908 Won, 6 to 0. The last game of the season, which Was to have been between 1910 and 1911, could not be played off on account of the field.

In October the Sopho- mores entertain the Freshmen, usually with a dance and a little later comes that never-to-be-forgotten festivity, the -lunior Party. Age cannot wither nor custom stale the inhnite variety of this annual tour, With its kaleidoscopic assortment of college dignitaries, organ grinders and clowns. 136 VASSARION The most general of the out-of-door Sp01'tS is skating on the Lake. Later in the Winter there may come that increasing rarity, the Ice Carnival, when with the combined sanction of -lack Frost and the ice cutters, long lines of skaters swing along in the torchlight in time to stirring music. Un Sunset Hill, the devotees of skeeing and coasting are thrilled by the rapid descent to the brook, while for less venturesome spirits there are water basketball and other indoor games in the Gym. For everyone there are sleigh rides along the snowy Hackensackilload or around Maple Circle. ' Naturally at this cold season the tea-drinking reaches its height, rang- ing in variety from the hastily brewed cup flemons and sugar borrowed next doorj to the full-Hedged tea with cakes, ginger and guest of honor in Senior Parlor. Winter, too, with its more violent exercises, fnot to mention more frequent opera creamsj affords many opportunities, unfortunately overlooked by some, for visiting the lnhrmary, that open Sesame to acquaintanceship,without which no really successful social career is launched. This is the Freshman's real debut since she is debarred from the formal elegance of the two Proms, Phil. and Founderls, which occur in November and May respectively and are the distinct Hfunctionsu of the year for the three upper classes. In February St. Valentine's, with its exchange of greetings during the day and candle-lit dinner tables in the evening, is followed by the more elaborate VASSARION 137 festivities of VVashington,s Birthday. On this elusive date it is customary, especially among the Senior class, for each table to represent some feature of local or national history. The resulting heterogeneous assortment of Dutch settlers, Puritans, cherry trees and Indians, congregate in the corridors after dinner for general inspection and a good time.

It is no ex- aggeration to say that after the first week all our trials were over. Steeped in Cranford and Jane Austen our first and last efforts were directed toward preserving the atmosphere-that intangible yet indispensable beta noir thrust upon us by the critical committee. To this end we watched every inflection and gesture oflady-like Phoebe and trained each courtesy of her small pupils. Wlien the last touch had been added to the Blue and White Room which to our minds was so thoroughly expressive ofthe spirit of the piece, when Miss Susanls cap had finally been adjusted and Captain Brown's sword hung at just the proper angle, we of the committee retired in our chemistry aprons to the wings to leave the stage to Barrie's old World characters. Here, kneeling or on tip-toe, according to our particular vantage point, we caught tantalizing glimpses of Phoebe's dancing or of the children saluting the brave Capt. Brown and unconsciously beamed and nodded to each other when a much criticized speech Hwent oil? well. H Another diversion occurred during the Ball Scene when we in turn directed the hidden orchestra through the glass door with strangely unprofessional gyrations. In distinct contrast with the delicate decorum of the stage action was the impromptu 1 VASSARION 141 cake-walking of the tallest dragoon with the tiniest pupil during the intermissions. Between the afternoon and evening performances the usual tuneful supper party brought the cast and committee together to talk and laugh over the slips and successes ofthe first presentation. When the curtain descended in the last act, when Mrs. Kenclriclos supper party linally dispersed, we felt real regret in parting with the fun of the last four weeks. However, the very pleasantest possible renewal of the good times came with an invitation in the gently hospitable vein of the heroine of the play: H Miss Throssell presents her compliments and requests the pleasure ofyour company on November the fourteenth. The coach which will convey you to Quality Street will be waiting at Linkeley Brook at half past seven o'cloclc.,' This meant a moonlight barge ride terminating in a supper party. More or less poetic toasts from each member of the cast and committee followed and finally a burlesque of the play by the committee, who, in ridiculous garb, reproduced the weaknesses ofthe patient players-in Jollity Streetf' 1422 VASSARION The Straub iiaall lap We were in the mood for a Christ- mas play that evening. Christmas vacation was near at hand, and our minds were full of Christmas thoughts and Christmas plans. The snow had been falling all day, so it was a white, hushed world that we saw as we hurried over to Phil. Hall. We waited in great expectancy for the play to begin. A Mystery was something new to us here at College, and everybody wondered What it would be like. Might it not seem the least bit ridiculous to modern eyes? Once the play began, however, all doubts were banished. The twilight setting, the angel chorus, and Mary, with the strange glory of the star falling upon her hair, and with the unseen babe cradled on her knee,-all this gave an impression of rare sweetness and dignity. We went home through the snow with the Gloria in Excelrir still ringing in our hearts, and Christmas seemed suddenly to have become a very real and beautiful thing. VASSARION 14-3 -l?-i .I ,vga . .

In fact, We were so carried away by the first rehearsal We attended that the individuals concerned foundireason to complain of the dearth of critical comment. So the night before the dress re- hearsalvve steeled ourselves to be critical. Not once did the menacing stride of the butler escape our com- ment, and even in the third act, when Polly Was holding our attention with her spirited account ofthe chase, We paused to Write, Donlz' talk too fart. And so We accumulated a motley array of points good and points bad, of large defects and of slips in minor details, and the next day-Well, after much labor, a carefully classified criticism Was handed to the chairman of the committee proper, andvvehad nothingto do but await results. Wozzld the audi- ence laugh in the Wrong places F In the afternoonvve held our breath aghast as the hero doubled the number of kisses al- lotted to the heroine. But there Was not even a giggle. The scenery Was a thorough success, and when the log cabin appeared in the second act We knew perfectly well that the process We had Watched with so much interest the night before, Was not the painting of moonlight on the Water, or night-sky effects, but just the rough hewn logs ofa very realistic hut. ln the evening We Were guilty of sk-ulking about in the back of the hall to hush inveterate gigglers and to collect comments. There Was as much distress over the sad ending as We had hoped for. Freshmen and Sophomores rose to the occasion toa man, grumbled because Lady Mary Wouldn't marry Crichton, then held their breath in eager expectation as she returned for a last Word before the final curtain- Oh, perhaps she Will marry him after alll' But she didn't, and a new problem looms on the horizon of the under- classman. 7 VASSARION 145 The jnurtb ball iblap The Einteiiei T!1'ZaIe Q It was apple blossom time.

The smell of the apple N . wgiggljgblossoms came to us poignantly sweet. Through the dusky shadows we could see the trees on the hillside like dancers spreading out their fluffy light skirts. Some one cried I-lurry! It's nearly time to begin. And as we went swiftly through the tall, wet grass to the stage we glanced back and saw the crowd that had come to watch us surging up the hill. Behind the group of pines, that form the background of the stage, were tents in which lights gleamed. Mysterious figures were rushing about giving orders and asking questions in subdued excitement. Within the tents the last rites of the H make-upn were being completed. Un the pine needles under the trees sheperdesses and youths in short tunics stretched themselves luxuriously, awaiting their turn. At the entrance of the pine path leading to the stage stood an old man 146' VASSARION stroking his long white beard and chuckling at the whispered exclama- tions ofa court lady who leaned fa- miliarly on his shoulder. They were watching the audience gather on the hill--multitudes of girls in White with the torches flickering on their hair. Away up in the gloom of the pines were the unlucky ones who camelate and had to sit in thecffamily circle. Theexcitedbuzzandchatter and the restless movements of ex- pectancy were suddenly hushed by the appearance of two courtiers walking in their royal attire across the long stretch of grass into the blaze of light. The play had begun. In the still, dew-drenched dusk the voices rang out clear and sweet, weighted with the indelinable charm of the fragrant night. Behind the ragged screen of inky pine trees a little horned moonv was slowly sinking. The strong glare of the lights fell brilliantly on the groups of courtiers and ladies with flowing trains, and on the tall majestic Hgure of the Queen stand- ing in proud humility as she listened to the ringing accusation of My Lord the King. In the fourth act amid the silver strains ofa Hute sounding in the shadows, troops of laughing shepherds and shepherdesses danced across the stage laughing and pelting one another with posies, buying ribbons and sweet glories from the peddler and teasing the stupid clown. Flowers and danc- ing, songs and shepherd's pipe, grass under their feet, starlight above their heads and the high call of Perdita, Come take your Howersf' ASSARION .147 And then the last picture of the statue, tall, White and regal on her pedestal, stirring to life and slowly descending among the Wonder stricken courtiers, While the king as she touched him cried brokenly, Oh she is Warm.

It Was a pic- ture Which those Who saw it remembered long after they Wound their starlit Way through the dark and the dew, back to the real World that lay at the foot of the hill. , M8 VASSARION be Iuh lfanuse URING the year 1907-1908 the Students' Association has built a Club House for the maids employed at the college.

A few nights before, they had rushed out madly at the sound of our singing, only to find a weird assemblage performing uncanny rites around the fat urn on Prexy's lawn, to the strains of This is our tall, slim tree! Now everybody was determined not to be tricked again. Our frank avowal was received with jeers, and one sarcastic Junior remarked, Wl1y don't you send engraved invitations F Nevertheless, a few hopeful souls hung around after chapel, and we had some difficulty in avoiding them, as we scurried across the dark lawn to our various meeting places. It was a chilly night, but we forgot the cold in our excitement. The moonlight glittered on the spears of the huntresses and on their silver fillets, as they formed ranks behind the chapel. Then the march began. , In magic night, 'Mid radiance white, We hunt o'er hill and leag The forest all Wakes to our call, The winds waft far our melody, The trees sway to our revelry. Oh ho, ho! oh ho! From the far distance came the answering song of the nymphs: Diana with moonlight aglowg Huntrexses. Oh ho, hol oh ho! Nympbr: The maid of the silvery bow. XIII: We come to rest from the hunt In the leafy gloom. VASSARION 157 By this time people were hurrying out of the halls and crowding along our path. Our two bands drew nearer and nearer, the huntresses holding their gleaming spears aloft, the nymphs led by Diana herself, with her train of glimmering Pleiades. At last the Whole class was united around the tree. The striving world lies sleeping low In the arms of night, With all its shadows silvered o'er By caressing light Of moonbeam, whose white gleam Puts care to Hightf' A murmur of violins on the outskirts of the circle prevented the spectators from hearing what was taking place around the tree. Only too soon the ceremonies were over. Nymphs and huntresses disappeared, but the tree remains, and some of the most joyous moments in the life of the class have been celebrated around it. And now in the spring you may hear an echo of that eventful night, for IQO8,S tree song rings out across the campus. i A Still is the night, Wliich spreads its mantle wide, And silent are the stars, They tell not where we hide. Stay, Goddess bright, Lead us no further on, For here, here is our tree, Beneath whose outspread arms We all may come and feel The peace of its still charm, Throughout all the night. Past wood and glen, O'er hill and wind-blown fen, We've followed thee, to find this tree Where we may rest and drink new life again, Rejoice! ye nymphs and huntresses, j Rejoice! in mingled melody Around this strong and constant friend, Where sweet dreams come And sad thoughts end.

It is a sudden return to the spirit A' i of romping childhood to play about in the circle, to run a ii race as if your life depended upon the Winning of it, and L ' f' then to laugh and try again when you are '1' beaten, to labor un- ceasingly at the broad jump, to exult as the bar creeps higher and higher in the high jump -to do all these things and to de- light in the purpose and effort to do them Well, this is the spirit of the spring training. The day itself, both for those Who actually enter the contests and for those Who cheer them on, stands most completely for the spirit of true sportsmanship.

A In The Circle pi f' r---t 7th Hour s cl . c AH 0ut! is 'lttc From the time when that notice was first posted on the Athletic bulletin in Freshman year, Nineteen Eight has manifested extraordinary enthusiasm in all matters connected with basketball. Even in the beginning the efforts put forth by the Class were in thelinterests of the game for itself. For that, Nineteen Eight has always played. When it has been her good fortune to win, she has accepted the victory joyously and has draped her banner about the class tree. When she has lost, she has taken the defeat with the spirit of it,s all in the game! This position on the part of the Class towards the game had its source naturally from the attitude so early assumed by the team and its manager. Their work and play together has been singularly emphasized by a sense of loyal comradeship throughout. There has been nothing but good-natured rivalry for position, each girl onthe regular and sub-teams preferring the interests of the game and the class interests to her own. This has appeared in all the playing whether in passing or in long-distance baskets. 166 VASSARION That the basketball games have taken a prominent part in Nineteen Eight's college life, the loyal support which all members of the Class have given from the side-lines, is witness. The sunflower costumes and the yellow parasols have duly appeared on all occasions, and the Class, whether marching along, three hundred strongf' or with steps that are light and freev has rallied With never a fear Beneath the banner To give a cheerf' Seldom has enthusiasm been as high as when the circle resounded to 'MOS is out on the Heldf' From the spring of Freshman year, when the yellow triumphed over the green, the team has been establishing a record of which the Class is justly proud, and together We'll defend and fight to the end For Nineteen Eightf' VASSARION 167 ibasiaethall bangs TUNE-Down the Field ,OS is out on the Held,- Cheer for the Seniors!

Moving about the campus are little groups of relatives, interestedly listening to running accounts of buildings, col- lege traditions, and class happenings. An air of distracted hurry hangs about the corridors. ln two short days the Senior Class must welcome its friends, present itself for inspection, give an idea of its characteristics, and make its formal bow of farewell to the College. The ideal Class Day demands sunshine. Across the wide stretch of grass, winds the white line of the lower classes. Then the daisy-chain, and the Seniors in many colors. Once again the familiar songs are sung. ' The scene shifts to the Class tree. Senior privileges and duties are en- trusted to the Juniors, with the spade. Then, as the Seniors circle slowly around the tree, each girl throws a flower on the stone which covers the V A S S A R I O N 171 g records of the class as 5 ' 1, ,,.,q lan active part of the College. Late in the ' ,, evening, When uests 94' ., ,e g:.:11r-at' g faq have gone, and the wi I campus is still, the YW? 1 SOphGI-H01-es Creep I In .,. y A under the Windows of ' - - - ' g Aryvv Senior corrldor, and t r Q sing their farewell to g the sister-class. And A ' the next day is Com- ' A W mencement, with IES impressive procession of faculty, alumnae, and graduates. Speeches, diplomas, and the other formalities, soon are over. Friends leave for home, and the campus is left undisputed to the Seniors. For the last time, the Class is together. At class supper, the past four years are re-lived,-victories and defeats, comedy and deadly earnest. And so amid smiles and tears comes the realization that, though passing out from college life, the Class Will ever be united in Alma Mater. x N A:' - x X V5 ??

Oh, happy class, with chance to make A sacrifice so deep! Then into every senior's heart A martyr's zeal did How. Renounce, they cried, the Mohonk ride,- We'll let the Freshmen go.

Even as she did so, the game ceased. Sticks, 19o8!', The Infants fled from their stations, and attempted to reach the ball through the Hellenic gardens, and so into the country beyond, but the Yellows, drunk with the foreign madness of success, pushed them back into the field. i So Went these unforgetable hours, this day of ever new delights. . . . . The massacre now became general. The wing starts her flight forward, returns once or twice to the ball in question, and then, having definitely Hxed in her mind the exact situation and aspect of the kingdom which she has never yet seen, she departs for the goal like an arrow to the zenith of the blue. Far away, caressing their idle- ness in the midst of the Howers, our goal-keepers and half-backs have beheld the apparition, have- Time! Immediately crowds collect. There were some who began to wash with lemon finds the blood-stained conquered and to pick up the cradles which had been thrown into the street. But the vast mass of the spectators follow the Yellows into the sea of gladness, whose limpid boundaries seem ever unassailed by hosts of possible recollec- tions of past defeats. The outcome of this was the harnessing of a horse to a cart in order to fetch the bodies of the captain and the ten little girls to the pink hospital. As the sun solemnly rose through the quietudes of the sky, deep silence, as of luncheon, descended. From time to time, a silent desert-cart Went on its way from North to Main.

Where the Vassar Campus now stands, was once part of an extensive cow pasture, which may have rivaled the plains of Arabia in fertility. Of this pasture nothing now remains but the grass, for buildings erected through the years have buried the cows. Main Building, which is an example ofa vanished architecture, is the oldest build- ing on the Campus. The great goilflinks which formerly occupied part of the Campus has left most interesting records of its former presence in the fossils of golf sticks and wooden tees which are excavated from time to time. In the following pages are illustrated some of the most striking formations which occur in our neighborhood. There will be no difficulty in finding the localities described, owing to the careful- ness and accuracy of the descriptions. The object of this little sketch is to draw you closer to the buildings about you. Why should you not see and examine for yourselves these extraordinary illustrations of manas handiwork? MAIN BUILDING LOCATION: Main Building is situated exactly one minute's run from the car tracks in front of the Lodge, one-half minute's walk from Rockefeller Hall, and four minutes saunter from Chapel. DESCRIPTION: Main Building is composed of walls, which theoretically do not transmit noise. It consists of an elevator, a dance room called LH Senior Parlor, a dining room, and Students' rooms. It should be noted that the piano in J is overworked, that the dining room sounds resemble those of an Indian war-dance, and that the elevator is always on the wrong Hoor. -VASSARION 195 EXPLANATION : Main Building was originally built to accommodate three students and an instructor. In the course of time, however, the college grew in size and importance, till to-day, it is declared with pride, that the same building which was formerly occupied by the original four, holds four hundred and fifty people comfortably. This is an example of the old time architecture, the finest of its kind in the world. NORTH HALL LOCATION: The location of North Hall varies according to the position of the observer. To the casual, it is situated directly in front of the tower, so that its central portion is protected by that edifice. To the resident on the ninth floor, it is situated in mid-air, half a secOnd's flying distance from Main. DESCRIPTION 1 North Hall is the only extant example ofa dual structure connected by intricate halls. It is supposed to be modeled after the prison and court-house connected by the famous Bridge of Sighsf' Here, however, most ofthe sighs, in the form of gasps, issue from the Students who climb the gentle ascent to the ninth floor, when the elevator is out of order. EXPLANATION : North Hall was named after Farthest North, the book of the Arctic explorer, Jansen, because it is the nearest of all the college buildings to the North Pole. At the bequest of an appropriate amount of money, however, it will change its name, and no unnecessary questions will be asked of the donor. THE COLLEGE LAKE LOCATION: The College Lake is situated at the foot ofthe slide leading from the Ice House. DESCRIPTION: The estimated size of this lake varies from that of a teacup to a soup kettle. During the summer months the surface is concealed beneath a mantle of living 196 VASSARION green. In winter the smiling and polished exterior offers opportunities to the most ignorant for avoiding Gym. EXPLANATION: The College Lake was formed from the vast torrent of Water issuing at its present source. It's raison ffffre is to provide banks, along which the students may pursue a minimum of daily Walking. gif gygljfi V 5 vi-:2fWff,g2, M?45f5Z:'55-4155 , 7 'QWiVfZpZf7 f fgvr fax' if f ffgiyiiilfin lt, 22W 'W f M 1' f'-?Zf 'ff 140 ew f 41 4' af5?,fQ7 WWA lfg ,420 f , .ZfZ'?QV5 J 1225? f 7f74 , ,Aff ,QAMZ fw a'ff- fWfjW9f,'3Wf! 67- 'ff iff '.

If the one lesson could but be discovered, learning which all classes might safely be attended, if the paper could be written, having written which, no other paper need be written, but only the mechanical agency of the mimeograph be enlisted in order to satisfy five mandatory instructors, if that one block of work could be fastened upon, having done which no other work need be expended, and if there could be discovered the last supremest secret, that alchemy of intelligence, which in a trice can fuse in the crucible of the imagination this dull block of Work into that gleaming form which shall answer the demands of every regular and extra function of the college life,-then what saving of undue eH'ort, of overstrain, of breakdown and nervous tension would result! How we should be emancipated from the tyranny of the census bureau, and free to use our manifold abilities in all the manifold directions to which pleasure, profit, or ambition may entice us!

We realize that it is too late in the year for the example appended to this discussion to profit many of you during the present term, but in the years to come its method may serve to simplify our college activities as naught else can do, and may prove the time-saving basis which shall bring to us by a short cut the dawn of the millenium. Q02 VASSARION APPENDIX The following suggestive outline and quotations from an essay entitled THE SOLILOQUIES IN THE TRAGEDIES or SHAKESPEARE SPOKEN UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF LIQUoR,,'-the essay is too extensive to publish entire,-will furnish suHicient explanation of the new method of combining such things as, The Shakespeare Prize Essay, Debate, P English, Drama or Shakespeare, Miscellany or Vassarion article, and Commencement Speech. The Generic Essay here outlined can be depended upon to answer the demands of any of the above subjects. , A V THE SOLILOQUIES IN THE TRAGEDIES OF SHAKESPEARE SPOKEN UNDER THE T INFLUENCE OF LIQUOR. I. Conditions of liquor consumption in the spacious times of Queen Elizabeth. None adequate, but from the internal evidence given by the worksof the dramatists We may safely conclude that its sale was general in all public houses, etc. Il. Efforts at suppression inadequate since, CI.j Did not strike at fundamentals and eliminate element of private profit from the trade. 2. Not backed b ublic o inion. General attitude toward intem erance Y P P P characterized by remark of Falstaffz Give me a cup of sack, rogue-: is there no virtue extant 3 C3.D Bribery and corruption of constables. See scene of raid on Dame Quickley's house. HI. Evils of the Drink TraHic. CLD Economic. C2.j Social-Notice the Motiveering of the Character of Francis the Drawer in Henry IV. That ever this fellow should have fewer words than a parrot and yet be the son of a womanf' etc. Effect of all details of the trade on the life of the individual. C3.D Moral: Here we reach the interesting record in the work of that most accurate and reliable investigator, Master William Shakespeare, on the psychology of drink. The soliloquies of drunken persons in the tragedies give us an imaginative treatment second only in value to personal ex- VASSARION 203 perience, of the question of the intellectual and moral results of inebriety, etc., etc. The drunken porter in Macbeth, place in the action, etc. Situation result of social causes, etc., etc. The Problem of Remedy. What can We learn from the situation presented in these dramas, that you as intelligent American citizens and We as prospective graduates of Vassar College can apply to the actual conditions of liquor con- sumption Which We shall meet in after-life. CLD That We must inform ourselves of actual facts. f2.Q That We must become alive to the social forces at Work in the World for destruction and betterment. ' C3.D That we must introduce the principle of rational control of self and A environment into our subsequent activity. Q4.D And pledge ourselves to the agitation and installation of the company system of liquor traffic Wherever our Widely scattered but united homes may offer a field for our activities.
