So large is New York's Grand CenTraI STaTion ThaT The hundreds oT people who are consTanTly moving Through iT make no more noise Than an unbroken murmur, a drone, which Though soTT, is alive and inTense. BuT This day The sooThing Tones oT an organ rose above The murmur To echo among The ornamenTed raTTers oT The disTanT and hazy rooT. The driTTing humaniTy below did noT pause To lisTen and absorb and wonder aT The immensiTy oT IiTe and The beauTy and meaning in living which These carols sang TorTh. lnsTead each liTTle selT-cenTered auTomaTon scurried abouT, compleTeIy absorbed in his own Trivial peT- Tiness and concerned wiTh Those abouT him only in so Tar as They could be oT use. Coming down The huge sTone sTaircase To The swarming level below, I became one of The many milling Taces. so diTTerenT in conTour buT so iden+icaI as To expression. I Took my place in one oT The lines aT The checking counTer and, slighTly irriTaTed aT The delay, awaiTed my Turn, while glancing wiTh passive inTeresT aT Those abouT me. My aTTenTion was caughT by a slighT girl in a raTher unaTTracTive-colored brown coaT. She was haTless and her neck seemed Too long and Thin To supporT her large head wiTh iTs TluTTy mop oT curly Tan hair. So pale and Thin was her Tace and so almosT yellow her cheeks ThaT her Thick brows and brilIianT brown eyes sTood ouT in alarming conTrasT. OT all her TeaTures her eyes were whaT I saw. and iT was noT Their size nor Their green gIinTs ThaT held me spellbound. buT The manner in which They looked aT people and seemed To see sTraighT Through every mask To whaT was really There. One by one The surrounding people Tell under her piercing gaze. and when she had ascerTained whaT she wanTed, she would move on To The nexT. RiveTing her eyes To my Tace, she seemed noT aT all perTurbed ThaT I was looking aT her, buT sTripped all preTense and covering from me, peered inTo my soul and Then dismissed me wiTh no apology or expIanaTion. WiTh burning Tace and hoT embarrassmenT I Tried To conceal my annoyance aT This mere slip oT a girl who, wiTh compleTe indiTTerence, had upseT my poise and leTT me blushing and Turious. WhaT had she seen when she looked aT me like ThaT? ThaT'II be a dime. sir. and I haven'T goT all day. The words oT The aTTendanT aroused me To every-day realiTy. and beckoning To a red-cap, I hurried away. A TirsT day in New York aTTer an absence oT Two weeks never Tails To be a bedlam oT business conTerences, hurried greeTings, and a hosT oT unexpecTed Turns and TwisTs in The rouTine we leTT so Tirmly esTabIished behind us. In a mood oT ThoughTTul pre- occupaTion wiTh my business problems, I Tried To relax on my way To a Triend's house Tor dinner. when my chauTTeur sTopped aT a lighT on The corner oT FiTTy-SevenTh STreeT in The dusk oT The same aTTernoon. I glimpsed Through The halT misTy window a 93 familiar brown-coafed figure, sfaring up aT The building on The windswepf corner. In The busfle of The day I had quife forgoTTen abouT This young lady wiTh The piercing brown eyes. buT now as I saw and recognized her Thin back and mop of Tan hair, I feIT an overwhelming rush of refurned curiosiTy. Turning from her survey of The build- ing. she sTood aT The curb for a minufe, while The wind slapped her wiTh icy fingers, and a few sfray snowflakes chased by. Through The swiffly forming misT on The window I saw a humble, begging expression in her eyes, as Though her whole soul were praying To God for help and proTecTion. The IighT changed, and my car wenT on wiTh The Traffic, buf I could nof remove from before my eyes The impression of The Thin neck supporfing The blowing mop of hair and Those humble, fearful eyes. Poor kid, she was probably hungry and cold and didn'T have any friends or any place To go! On a sudden impulse I direcfed The chauffeur To go back. wiTh noT The slighTesT idea as To whaf I infended To do. Buf The wind swepT around an empTy corner. The weeks driffed slowly by, and I found my ThoughTs forever Turning To The sfrange girl. I began To lose my sense of values, and my curiosify grew ouT of all proporfion. I Tried To Tell myself aT firsf Thaf iT was profound sympaThy for her which so Tormenfed me, buf in my hearT I knew iT was a disease of curiosiTy. I had To know why she looked aT people The way she did, and whaT she saw when she looked aT Them Thaf way. To whaT use did she puf her sfrange informaTion, and why did she look The way she had ThaT afTernoon on The sTreeT corner? Thaf prayer in her eyes had been a prayer for far more Than physical comforf and securify. BuT above all, I iusf had To know why she looked aT people like Thafl I am a New Yorker and a cos- mopoIi+an. I am nearer forfy Than I'd like fo admiT, and Thaf such a Thing should upsef my well planned bachelor scheme of life is beyond all reason. I Toyed wiTh The possibilify ThaT perhaps I was in love wiTh The girl, buf I knew This wasn'T True. I had no desire To see her again excepT in so far as by doing so if would enable me To comprehend her. I realized ThaT if someone else could saTisfacTorily explain her and fhaT chilling look, I would again have peace. BuT now iT was 'as if I had a disease, I had To find oufl Some monfhs Iafer as I was sfanding on The hoT and noisy corner of Fiffy-Sevenfh STreeT, The once windswepf corner where I had seen her for The second and Ias+ Time, I decided To enfer The building she had been sTudying so inTenTIy and perhaps find some Trace of her There. Climbing The sfone sTeps, The realizaTion came upon me ThaT here was The ArT STudenTs' League. Thaf famous and naTionaIIy recognized arf school. Was she an arT sTudenT? Did she sfudy here? In Thaf case iT oughf To be a reasonably simple maTTer To IocaTe her, buT whaT I would do or say if I finally did, I did noT know. All I wanfed was peace and release from This unresf of spirif and Tormenfing curiosify ThaT held me. In a daze I climbed some sTairs and wandered Through a large Iighf room crowded wiTh people and easels and almosf sickening wiTh fhe smell of painf. In The cenfer a model in a crazy purple haT and a long crimson feaTher posed meficulously on The edge of a green pool Table. The small noises of people aT work were broken only occasionally by The muTTered crificisms and conTempTuous humphs of The Teacher as he paused before various canvases of his sTruggling sTudenTs. I wandered on and found myself in a smaller less crowded room, 94 where a bearded man was chipping noisily on a sTrange TormaTion of sTone, while an admiring group oT sTudenTs sTood devouring his every move. A figure in a blue smock aT The Tar end oi The sTudio was aT work upon someThing I could noT see, and I recognized ThaT Tigure! l knew ThaT hair and The Thin neck and narrow shoulders. I couIdn'T move. WiTh Ieaden limbs glued To The floor, I was held in an icy vise, and could scarcely breaThe. Then slowly and warmly reTurned composure spread Through me and I could move easily across The room. She was working on a clay head and iT was of me! BuT no. iT was noT of me: iT was The head of The whole wide world. The expression of every seIT-cenTered person in Grand CenTral STaTion lay in The arroganT, disinTeresTed eyes. and in The nose and slighTIy biTTer mouTh. All humdrum humaniTy in iTs unaroused momenTs was porTrayed here. Now I knew why This girl looked aT people The way she did, and now I knew whaT she found deep beneaTh The masks and covering. IT she could see Through inTo The minds and hearTs of people in Their glorious and inspired momenTs as well as she could when They were narrow and self-cenTered, and record whaT she saw, she would creaTe The mosT beauTiTuI pieces of scuIpTure in The world. She would be a genius. As I sTepped Trom The shadow of The building and came again inTo The sunny, noisy sTreeT, I TeIT like an unTamed bird seT Tree Trom iTs haTed cage wiTh The whole warm sparkling world placed before iT To choose from and To enjoy. I sTarTed up Madison Avenue Twirling my cane and smiling gaily aT every passer-by. Boy AgainsT The Sky You sfand erecT like some young Tree, STrong and sfill AgainsT The sky.

MarTha Ely 95 PubliciTy STunT T was a hoT day in The busy mid-wesTern ciTy of Morrow. The sun's brillianf heaT was radiafed by The pavemenTs so ThaT iT was almosT impossible To walk in The sTreeT. ln his campaign office in The biggesf building in Town, Sam Jaffe saT chewing his pencil, waifing for his boss To finish wrifing him a speech Tor The Women's Club's address The nexT day aT LiberTyville. IT promised To be a dull affernoon, buT parT of his dufies if he wanTed To be elecfed counTy commissioner. Sam did noT care parficularly for ThaT kind of iob. buT his big boss was financing The enferprise, and he was geTTing a good cuT ouT of iT. The work, whaT There was of iT, was easy and pleasanT. David W. SmiTh was The crookedesf and richesf polifician in Morrow and wanTed To geT inTo The counTy commissioner office in order To be in on all The counfy posifions. He paid his men good wages and They served him well, knowing The penalfy ThaT was inflicfed if They didn'T. Sam swung his feeT off The desk as Dave came inTo The room. Sam, here's your speech for The ladies Tomorrow. lT's preTTy mushy and a liTTle far-feTched in parTs, buT iusT give Them ThaT handsome smile of yours and They'll voTe for you. l've been Thinking a loT abouT your case, and l Think you need more publiciTy Than you've been geTTing. l wanT you badly as commissioner righT now, To puT over a big deal. I'II Talk To you abouT This publiciTy angle again. O.K. boss. buT The papers say l've goT The elecTion cinched righf now, and if l can win These dames Tomorrow aT LiberTyville iT will be a sure Thing. So don'T you worry aT all. K WiTh a leer on his face The boss replied. l ain'T The one ThaT oughT To be worried. Ha! Ha! He Turned and lefT The room. Affer Dave wenT, Sam read The speech over. A children's playground on every sTreeT - lncreased old age Pensions - HonesTy is my policy -. He smiled aT The cleverness of old Dave SmiTh. Neifher The boss nor he had any such ideas. buT They sounded wonderful To prospecTive voTers. SomeTimes Sam had qualms abouT The roTTenness of his life. and how he cheaTed The innocenT people who Trusfed him, buT The ThoughT of The money angle quieTed any doubTs lefT in his mind. Sam had been mean and Thoughfless all his life, and had enjoyed causing his fosTer parenTs pain. A man and his wife had adopTed him from The orphanage, on whose door sTep he had been lefT as a baby. This loving couple had done Their besT for him, buT had died in an auTomobile accidenT on Sam's sixTeenTh birThday, wiThouT ever reforming or winning The affecfions of This cold boy. Sam had finished his high school educafion by obfaining a scholarship, for he did have brains. Here he had aTTracTed The aTTenTion of Dave Smifh, a TrusTee, who became inTeresTed in The boy. because of his vicious aTTiTude and moody disposifion which reminded Dave of his own youTh. Sam had been working for Dave ever since, aT odd iobs. This was his firsT imporTanT posiTion wiTh him, and Sam, in doing iT, planned To make enough To be independenf for The resT of his life. ln facT, he mighf even go inTo a few shady venfures for himself. He smiled in anTicipaTion of being his own boss. 96 Sam pulled himself up from The chair, as he noficed The laTe hour, and puffing his haf on his head, he walked ouT of his office lpaid for by Dave Smifhl. The nexT day while Sam sTill slepf, a poor old woman could be seen walking along The dusfy road info LiberTyville. She carried a frayed carpef bag and was obviously dressed in her besT. which was nof very new. or becoming. Her grimy hands showed signs of hard work: her whole appearance was one of servifude and lifelong Toil. She made her way info The Town audiforium. where Mr. Samuel Jaffe was To speak, and shuffled up To a seaf in The fronT row. AlThough iT was Two hours before The address was scheduled To begin. she saT conTenTedly wiTh a pleased smile on her humble face and her old carpeT bag clasped TighTly in her hand. When The club members began To arrive They were slighfly nonplussed To see her siTTing There in The seaTs reserved for The welcoming commiffee and more imporTanT members. buf she looked so piTiful and eager. Thar They leT her sfay in her prominenT seaf. Mr. Jaffe spoke well in his Thrilling. sincere voice. His handsome face and sfraighfforward manner won greaf applause from his enamoured audience. They didn'T lisTen much To his words, buT were more inTeresTed in him. Then as Sam was Taking his final bows. wiTh The newspaper phofographers, senT by Dave SmiTh, working from every angle. The old woman wiTh a beafific smile on her face. clufching her carpef bag. sfumbled up onTo The plaTform. She Took his hand in boTh of her coarse. worn. ones. looked inTo his shifTy eyes and said in a cracked voice. My boy. l know you will be a perfecT commissioner. Sam, asfounded and embarrassed, rudely jerked away from The cheap old woman. and wiTh a curT nod he walked down To The waifing commiTTee, buf noT before numerous picTures had been Taken of The incidenT. The woman wiTh a hurT look in her doglike eyes hobbled down The sTeps and ouT of The audiTorium unnoficed by The ladies who all clusTered around Sam Jaffe congrafulafing him. The nexf day Dave Smifh sfrode info Sam's office brandishing a newspaper before The eyes of his underling. Sam. look aT This picTure! Such publicifyl You sure are a genius for doing The righf Thing. This pracfically cinches you To win The elecfion. Look aT The adorafion on ThaT woman's face. How much did you pay her for posing wiTh you? LeT me know and l will reimburse you. The whole Town is Talking abouT This, and ThaT's exacTly whaT you need. l guess you're preTTy smarT affer all. Sam looked af The picTure in quesTion and said. WhaT did l pay her? Why noThing. ThaT was iusT some fool woman aT The LiberTyville audiforium ThaT goT sorT of carried away by my high ideals. She musT have ThoughT I was preTTy good. DisgusTing old hag. isn'T she. BUT iT's a real good picTure of me don'T you Think? He smiled in self saTisfacTion. basking in his boss's approving glance. On a lonely road abouT Ten miles from LiberTyville. an old woman Trudged along wiTh Tears running down her face. Every few sfeps she would reach inTo an old carpef bag ThaT she had carried wiTh her and pull ouT newspaper clippings. She would glance aT each for a momenf and Then drop iT onTo The road.

Mary Louise Klipsfein 98 The Cuckoo Clock IN The hearT of The Black Region of Germany lived a quainf old man and his grand- son Karl. Herr Schneiderlink, for so he was called by The simple foresf folk, was a clock maker by craff and a beffer one could noT be found for miles around. His specialfy was cuckoo clocks and every one said Thaf a house wiThouT a Schneiderlink clock was like a bird wiThouT wings. So skillfully were his clocks made Thaf They never seemed To gef ouT of order. Every year aT Dusseldorf, The nearesf village, a greaT fair was held aT EasTer Time. Every one who was able To go was There, and for a week The village Throbbed To The noise of The overcrowded bazaars and shops. The crowning evenT of The fair was The Cuckoo clock conTesT, The winner of which received Two Thousand marks, and his clock was given The honor of being placed in The duke's library. OT course, every clock maker was anxious To have his clock win, and each spenf a greaf deal of Time Trying To make his The besf. Herr Schneiderlink had been working on his for almosf Three years because The design was so complex, and he had noT enfered The conTesT for Two years, To gave money and concenTraTe everyfhing on This one clock. This clock was his prize. He seemed To have carved his very soul info iT, Every liTTle scroll and decorafion radiaTed The love and skill of a masfer craffsman in his work. The clock carved ouT of dark wood was abouf Two feeT high and nearly as wide. On The Top There was a gablelike proiecTion ThaT was carved in an inTricaTe design of leaves and berries and pine cones, all inTerwoven. AT The firsf quarfer sfroke a cuckoo peeped ouf from The lower righf hand corner and cooed cheerily ancl on The half hour one appeared in each corner which seemed To carry on a bird con- versafion. so realisfic were Their voices. On The Three quarfer sTroke a Third cuckoo poked his head ouT from The carving on Top To add his song To The ofhers. AT every hour he appeared alone, This Time all of him on a liTTle carved branch and fluffered his wings. BuT grander by far Than all This was whaT happened following The cuckoo's appearance aT Twelve o'clock. Suddenly Two concealed panels above4The face flew open, revealing a revolving plafform ThaT slid ouT bearing carved figures represenfing ST. Nicholas and his sleigh and reindeers driving around. Accompanying This from The inside of The clock came The sound of a music box playing STille NachT. BUT I musf noT forgeT To describe The face of This remarkable clock. IT was square, wiTh The numbers and rim of inlaid mofher-of-pearl. The Two hands were silver arrows and all around The face was The mosf beaufiful carving. The pendulum was a long Thin piece of wood wifh an oak leaf ThaT slid up and down To regulaTe The speed, and The four weighfs were carved wooden pine cones filled wifh lead. ln facf. nofhing could have been more complefe and yeT delicafe in spiTe of ifs size. One evening a few weeks before The fesfival Herr Schneiderlink was puTTing a few finishing Touches on his masTerpiece in The old shed where he kepf iT hidden. Here he smoofhed a leaf and There rounded a Tiny berry Thaf was noT perfecf. JusT as he was confemplafing his work of arT he heard Karl banging on The door. 99 Good evening, Grandfafherf' he cried. embracing The old man Tenderly. l iusT saw The firsT sign of Spring on The way home from school: The liTTle sTream has grown so ThaT iT is difficulf To cross wiThouT falling. The snow musT be melTing in The mounfains, and soon There will be fishing and a holiday and above all The fesTivaI. I know we will win The prize wiTh your clock. Nobody's could be so good. Oh Grand- fafher. iT's iusT The mosT beauTiful clock ThaT was ever made! And when we have The Two Thousand marks, we can move To The village. and you can have a big shop and sell all The clocks. I know people will wanT To buy Them when They see how wonderful The prize clock is. Can I make iT work? Please, GrandfaTher, iusT once: only ST. Nick and his sleigh. When The duke sees ThaT . . . TuT. my boy, noT so fasT. You know ThaT for The pasT Three years Herr Schnap- Telheim has had The prize clock, and who knows, he may have iT again This year. We can only waiT and hope. Meanwhile, help me varnish This liTTle parT here. IT is The only Thing ThaT needs To be done. They worked busily for half an hour puTTing on The finishing Touches and Then GrandfaTher said. Now iT's Time for supper. LeT's lock up The shed so no one can geT in. All righT, answered Karl, as he puT away his Tools. LeT's celebraTe TonighT and have some apfelkuchen in honor of The clock. They shuT The door and locked iT wiThouT any ThoughT of someone's Trying To geT in The half open window. As soon as The door of The coTTage slammed shuT, a sTealThy figure sTole ouT from behind a ThickeT and affer a glance around To verify his soIiTude, he climbed noiselessly Through The open window. Ah, said FriTz Schnapfelheim. To himself, for ThaT is who iT was, now I can make a skeTch of The old fool's clock and copy iT for my own. My skilled workmen and apprenTices can fashion an exacT replica by EasTer Time wiTh so many men working aT once. Won'T he be surprised when he geTs There and finds a duplicafe of his clock? Ha! I-Ia! Never say a Schnapfelheim has no wiTs. l'II fool him and his silly boy, I will! So saying, he quickly drew a picTure of The beaufiful clock. nofing carefully The precise deTails. Then wiTh a crafTy look he quickly climbed ouT of The window and hurried away Through The woods. LiTTle realizing The fraud ThaT was Taking place, Grandfafher and Karl were having a merry dinner inside Their cozy coTTage. You should have seen me aT school Today. said Karl befween moufhfuls of bread and milk, when I was Telling ThaT our clock was The besT one. ThaT liTTle fresh Schnapfelheim boy sTarTed To fighT me and argue and I hiT him a good one. You should see his black eye! KarI, said Herr Schneiderlink seriously, I Told you never To menfion The clock. noT even how wonderful you ThoughT iT was. Now The li++Ie Schnapfelheim boy will Tell his faTher ThaT you hiT him. and There will be no end of Trouble. Don'T worry. GrandfaTherg whaT can he do To us? We are safe from his iealousy and he wouIdn'T dare To harm The clock. IO0 WeII, perhaps you're righf. Buf mind me. Nof anofher word abouf 'rhe clock fo anyone. Undersfand? We can never be foo careful. The nexf morning while fefching some wafer from fhe well, Karl noficed fhe open shed window and a few scrafches on fhe painfed ledge. However, fhinking fhis fo be of Iiffle consequence. he merely menfioned if fo his grandfafher. remarking fhaf fhe shed needed a new coal of painf soon. Nofhing more was said abouf if. The day of fhe clock confesf was a fhrilling one for Karl. He and Grandfafher were up af four o'clock fo prepare for fhe journey fo Dusseldorf. Affer helping fo pack fhe precious clock and giving if one Iasf careful Iookover, Karl sfarfed ouf fo prepare a place in 'rhe exhibifion for if. As he skipped merrily 'rhrough 'rhe woods. he seemed fo hear 'rhe very birds saying. You're going fo win, you're going fo win. His hearf was filled wifh a happy song as he enfered fhe village. Everywhere people were calling ouf and hurrying fo and fro. The cify fairly shoufed wifh joy abouf fhe gay fesfival going on, especially since foday was so imporfanf. Karl made his way fo fhe huge clock bazaar. There were clocks from all over Germany: big ones, Iiffle ones, fall and shorf, carved and plain. In facf. fhere musf have been a clock of every size and descripfion excepf, of course. his grandfa'rher's. Where is Herr SchneiderIink's place? he inquired of a busy looking official. Uhm -- number fwo-forfy-eighf, righf over fhere. nexf fo Herr SchnapfeIheim's. Karl furned and gasped. There sfood an exacf replica of his grandfa'rher's clock. The clock fhaf he had spenf years of his precious fime on and all for naughf. Slowly Karl Ieff fhe bazaar. his head hanging down on his chesf. In fwo hours Grandfafher would be here and would find ouf. Whaf could he possibly do? He wandered from place fo place seeing nofhing excepf his grandfafher's sfricken face when he found ouf fhe frufh. Then bi+ by bif he began fo piece fogefher fhe mysfery. Wasn'f if fhe day affer he had hif Iiffle Schnapfelheim fhaf he'd noficed some scrafches on 'rhe window ledge of fhe shed? Thinking fhem fo be iusf marks of winfer. he had quickly forgoffen fhem. I bei old Schnapfelheim climbed in fhe window and copied fhe clock fhaf nighf, he said fo himself. I wonder if fhere is anyfhing fhaf I could do? Buf I wouIdn'f dare meddle wifh if. Then he had an idea. If he could meef Grandfafher before he enfered fhe village and fell him 'ro go for lunch, he wouldn'f find our 'fil Iafer. Hurrying fo a rock oufside fhe gafes, he saf down fo waif. Soon he saw him coming. leading a donkey carf bearing fhe precious clock. As soon as Herr Schneiderlink was wifhin calling disfance. Karl shoufed, Good day. Grandfafher. you're jusf in fime for fhe clock makers' banquef af fhe 'rown hall. I've already eafen, so l'll fake fhe clock and fix if for you. You can frusf me wifh if, because if means as much fo me as if does fo you, and l'll be ever so careful, you know I will. Don'f worry. I know we'Il win. All righf, Karl, l'll leave everyfhing fo you. I know you can fix if fhe righf way and be sure fhaf everyfhing is in perfecf working condifion. I will hunf you up abouf fwo o'clock. IOI Karl almosT snaTched The halTer 'from his GrandTaTher's hand and hurried To The big bazaar. ATTer careTully hanging iT up, a diTTiculT Task Tor a small boy, he examined The works and made sure everyThing was all righT. Flushed and exciTed iusT aTTer Tinishing, he crawled ouT Through The back en- Trance To Tind his grandTaTher. The greaT Town clock had iusT sTruck Two when The crowd began To merge Toward The greaT bazaar. Karl seized Herr Schneiderlink by The hand. and TogeTher They enTered The building. The duke was sTanding on a raised plaTTorm wiTh The iudge. As soon as The people were quieT he began: My dear villagers, Today we are abouT To conclude our happy EasTer TesTival wiTh The ToremosT evenT. Around us are clocks Trom all parTs of Germany. One oT These clocks will be The winner and iTs owner The proud possessor oT Two Thousand marks. Now our honored mayor Joseph DunkengriTT will choose The prize clock. i The people began To mill around while The mayor examined every clock. AT lasT he came To The Two duplicaTes. Hmm, he mused. whaT's This? Two exacT replicas? And such exquisiTe carving. Call The owners! Up Till now Karl had managed To keep his grandTaTher away Trom The clocks, buT now The blow would Tall. l-lerr Schneiderlink and Herr Schnapfelheim came forward. and when The Tormer saw an exacT copy oT his clock he Turned pale. Why, you cheaTing old Tool, he cried you sTole my plans. You copied my carving and had The audaciTy aTTer so much deceiT To bring iT here. I have no words ThaT express whaT l Think of you, you scoundrel! Prove iT, said Schnaplielheim wiTh a smug look. l did no such Thing and besides. my clock was here a day before yours. By righTs l should win. . This is mosT exTraordinary, puT in The mayor, buT genTlemen, leT's have no quarreling. UndoubTedly These are The TinesT clocks in The conTesT. We can only TesT The works To see which is The besT. So saying he moved The hands on GrandTaTher's clock To Twelve and immediaTely The big cuckoo appeared and crowed Twelve Times. Then The panels slid open and The liTTle plaTTorm emerged wiTh ST. Nick and his reindeer. EveryThing worked per- TecTly and The Tone of The music box was superb. Then The mayor TesTed The oTher cuckoos on The quarTer. halT, and Three quarTer sTrokes. These worked perTecTly Too. The crowd held iTs breafh as The mayor moved The hands on SchnapTelheim's clock. Everyone wanTed GrandTaTher To win because his rival was so mean Tempered and rude. The hands poinTed To Twelve. NoThing happened. They waiTed Tive minuTes. Ten: sTill noThing. SchnapTelheim's Tace was purple wiTh rage. He Tlung The clock To The ground and kicked iT aparT while The onlookers gazed aT him. horriTied. When There was noThing buT a mangled heap oT works leTT, he rushed ouT of The building shouTing someThing ThaT wouldn'T be TiT To repeaT. lO2 Well, said lhe mayor affer he had recovered from The shoclc. l guess 'rhe purse wilh +wo 'rhousand marlcs belongs 'ro our esleemed friend, Herr Schneiderlinlcf' Everyone fried lo congralulafe him al' once. The old man beamed wi+h fears in his eyes. On 'rhe way home Karl squeezed his Grandfa+her's hand. l knew we would win. he said.

We have accomplished fhis, we hope, in several ways. The Arf Club, fo begin wifh, has confinued fhis year having exhibifions of famous arfisfs af school for everyone fo enioy. ln fhe fall ferm we were capfivafed by Renoir's clelicafe painfings. A definife confrasf appeared in 'rhe winfer ferm wifh Pefer Breugel's scenes of German peasanfs, and in fhe spring ferm we had a beaufiful col- lecfion of orienfal prinfs. As lhese 'rhree were only exhibifions of reproducfions, we felf fhaf fhe year should be fopped off by a show of originals. So when fhe much awaifed Elshiemius' skefches arrived we were complefely overwhelmed. We feel fhaf we have never before been so successful wifh our exhibifs. We also sfarfed a permanenf collecfion for fhe school. Though as yef only four small copies, a Breugal. an Angelico, a Hans Memling, and a Gioffo. are in fhe col- lecfion, we know if will grow. Lasfly, we organized a quiz program and challenged fhe Music Club fo see which of us knew fhe mosf abouf our specialfy. The resulf was much fun for all and, as The resf of fhe school submiffed The quesfions, we hope fhere was an increased knowledge of our favorife subiecfs. This would never be complefe wifhouf a word fhanking everyone from fhe bof- fom of our hearfs for fhe Byrnes Memorial Sfudio. H' is a deep inspirafion fo all of us and a perfecf memorial fo fwo wonderful girls. Thank you, Miss Skinner, for your help, your gaiefy, and your pafience wifh us.

The Counf meanwhile is ploTTing wiTh BuTch and Roy The same robbery in order To pawn The jewels which he Thinks are real. The guesfs aT The wedding dinner were all a liTTle non-plussed. as we were, when Maisie and Mable from one side and Bufch and Roy from The oTher simulTaneously landed on Pearl and grabbed her jewels. All four missed. and The jewels fell inTo The soup and dissolved. All conspiracies being Too obvious now. STan is furious aT Pearl for noT being a CounTess and Pearl is equally furious aT Sfan for noT being The CounT she had ThoughT he was. Greafer sTill, however, is Their disTress when The proprieTress of The BonipeTT, Shirley Hopkins, asks who is going To pay The check.

The combinaTion of The wonderful spiriT and enThusiasm shown by boTh new and old girls on The hockey field made Miss Bowlby, Mrs. GilleTT. and in TacT all WalkeriTes fairly beam wiTh pleasure and pride. In Thinking back one could noT possibly overlook The genuine inTeresT shown ThroughouT The season and The desire To improve boTh for one's club and for The school. i ln The TirsT ouTside game of The year, ThaT wiTh The alums, our varsiTy followed TradiTion by winning. The alums puT up a good fighT, and are even more deTermined Than ever To come ouT on Top, so W f beware, nexT year's Walker V.l! Our nexT ouTside game, a spiriTed one wiTh The l-larTford Hurricanes, ended wiTh The score 6-3 in Tavor oT Walker's. We were noT To be so lucky in our following encounTer wiTh The Hurricanes , however, for The score was 4-I in Their favor. BuT This only broughT TorTh an even greaTer desire To win and in our final game we Tri- umphecl, giving us a maioriTy vicTory. This lasT game was a gay occasion, Tor we played on The l-larTTord field and enjoyed a delicious Tea given by one oT The players aTTer The exciTing evenT. This year we played WesTover insTead of Low-Heywood, and The day was a grand success. We won wiTh a score of 5-I for The TirsT Team and I-O for The second Team. The WesTover girls were wonderful Tun, noT only as compeTiTors buT as companions. Three Teams again played Rosemary This year, and The aTmosphere was aImosT more Tense Than before. Rosemary won The VarsiTy game 5-27 we won The second Team game 6-lg and The Third Team game proved a Tie. The banner was To go To The school winning Two ouT of Three games, buT since The ulTimaTe score was a Tie, neiTher school received iT. The Sun-Dial compeTiTion, accompanied by new rousing hockey cheers and songs, was equally exciTing. ConTrary To lasT year, The Suns came ouT ahead in The firsT Team game, winning Two ouT of The Three maTches, which made The shield poinTs 25 for The Suns againsT I4.6 for The Dials. As a resuIT of The second Team games The Dials secured I5 poinTs for The shield and The Suns 7.5. ln This series The score was a Tie beTween The Two Teams aT The end of The Third maTch, making a deciding game FTSCGSSGFY. Our wish is for you of nexT year To proceed onward and upward from This glorious season, and wiTh Miss Bowlby's and Mrs. GilleTT's conTinuous insTrucTion and inspiring inTeresT, for which we are all so deeply appreciaTive, we know iT will be anoTher perfecT year.

In Their second maTch They beaT The Suns 34-8 and in The lasT game 40-36. BoTh The second and Third Teams upheld The sTandard seT by The TirsT Teams and played a beauTiTul brand oT baskeTball which Thrilled The Trenzied Sun-Dial rooTers.
