We, the editors, to whom you have intrusted the task of making this book, hope it will prove worthy of you and of Ward-Belmont. No longer is the road before us the straight, gleaming road of years gone by, bordered with beautiful shrubbery and trees of pleasure grounds. The last Milestone points out a narrow and sinuous way, on either side of which there is a mass of humanity, shell-tattered in the greatest war in the history of the world, calling in distress for the dressing of their wounds, for food, for clothing, for shelter and for the restoration of this world to a peace and prosperity that will be everlasting. May we follow this road with self-confidence and determina- tion, fulfilling the ideals that have been awakened in us this year at Ward-Belmont. May the future Milestones of our journey on the Road of the Things Worth While mark the realization of the one thing we are preparing to render to all humanity — Service.

The daschunds have been ousted by the poodles, We eat pate de foie gras instead of noodles. For anti-Kaiser feeling is now chronic, And Germany we shun as plague bubonic. In all these ways, and many more forsooth, Have we improved on German things uncouth. But there is one place where we sadly err, About which patriots surely must demur; Something to allies ' minds unharmonic, In Ward-Belmont there ' s treason embryonic. Where we have measles it is most ironic That they should be of the variety Teutonic! — M.

Sarah Wilmut. Nell Wood, Helen Just Like A Book OH, I ' m going with Jimmy, of course! I answered rather peevishly. I seemed to be going everywhere with Jimmy that summer, and while I liked him, I was getting bored. Besides, Dan ' s cute New York visitor had asked me, and, as usual, Jim had already checked. I was still smarting under the disappointment and had made up my mind to show him rather an uncomfortable evening. Velma began to tease. Let ' s see, you ' ve gone to two dances already this week with him. This makes three, and the hay- ride and — -, she was counting them off on her fingers. Yes, and I was out riding with him all morning and all yesterday afternoon and the afternoon before that and I talk to him hours each day over the phone, I groaned as thoughts of the past weeks brought nothing but Jim. Pretty soon I guess I ' ll be marrying him, I finished tragically. Velma started, looked at me suspiciously for a moment and then, as if relieved when her scrutiny revealed nothing more than a pouting expression, she whispered, smiling, And wouldn ' t you like to? Heavens, no! I thundered, I wouldn ' t marry the King of England now. It ' s silly for girls to get married at sixteen and seventeen. A person can be married all her life and she can ' t always be a girl and go places and do things. I don ' t intend to get married until there ' s nothing else to do. I was on one of my favorite subjects and I fairly ranted. Velma and I always disagreed on this one point and heated discussions invariably followed the opening of the subject. This time she only smiled. But you have no idea how much fun being married is, she murmured sweetly. Huh, you talk as if you knew. I just guess it ' s a lot of fun having to listen to one man talk about himself for years and years and years. It ' s bad enough, now, when you at least have a variety of heroes, I stormed, refusing to be convinced. But Velma would not argue with me. Oh, you ' ll be glad enough to listen some day. Bet you can ' t guess who I ' m going with, she challenged. She was so radiantly happy that she irritated me, determined as I was to be miserable. It ' s hardly fair asking me to guess anything as hard as that, I snapped sarcastically, but I ' ll try. Could it be, could it possibly be — Dick? Wrong, she chirped delightedly. Her answer startled me into better spirits. What on earth ' s the matter? I asked anxiously. He said he hated cats right in front of Cleopatra and refused to beg her pardon when I commanded him to, so I ' m punishing him by going with Louis. And I suppose he is stagging? No, that ' s the funny part. He ' s jealous and revengeful and is taking Betty to spite me. She choked with mirth. Velma and Louis were old sweethearts, so were Dick and Betty, but Dick and Louis were sworn enemies while Velma and Betty were veritably David and Jonathan in their friendship. It Was a funny situation and we were still laughing over its possibilities when Jimmy came by to take me home. Au revoir, I called as we drove away. See you tonight, but would give an Alaskan gold mine if I didn ' t have to go, I added for Jim ' s benefit, but it was halfway true. Ah, if I had only known what the night was to bring forth I would have been like a race horse, panting with impatience till the moment of starting. I took particular pains, that night, to wear a dress that Jim despised. I also fixed my hair in the way that he liked least and put lots of perfume on my handkerchief. Perfume irritated him as did being late, and I kept him waiting forty-five minutes while I sat upstairs and finished a story. It is small wonder, then, that we had little to say to each other on the way over. In fact, we did not say a word, after I had finished fussing at him for not bringing his car (the dance was only two blocks away) and he had further infuriated me by saying that if I wasn ' t so lazy and took more exercise I wouldn ' t be so fat. I ' m not lazy, but I am fat and it ' s always a sore subject with me. We were both glad enough to seek other company when we got there and it was not until the grand march began that we saw each other again. Jimmy was terribly excited. I could tell it by the way he pursed up his lips and whistled softly, by the way he jammed his hands into his pockets, by the way he pounded his heel into the floor. I knew from past experience that if I only waited he would tell me. He never failed. So in outward calm and indifference I walked along beside him, though all my antagonism vanished and my heart bumped at the promising signs. Finally he pressed my arm and whispered, I ve got something to tell you. ' Well? I queried unconcernedly. Oh, not now. I couldn ' t tell you here, he whispered again. Why? They mustn ' t hear, he glanced around him at the crowd, there must not any one hear but you. Just at that point some one handed him two programs and he began digging in his pockets for a pencil. Look here, I ' m taking the third, fourth, fifth and sixth. I can tell you then. And you ' d better give me all the dances after intermission. But Jim — . I protested. I liked to dance with him better than anyone else, but that seemed to be overdoing matters. What will people say if I dance the whole program with you? Hang what people say! We can ' t be bothered about that tonight. Besides we won ' t be dancing. Look here, little girl. you ' ve simply got to do this for me— and for others, he finished, both entreaty and command in his voice. I succumbed. Throughout the first dance he maintained a mysterious silence and kept searching the crowd with his eyes for someone, I could not tell whom and knew it was useless to ask. So I danced on. literally burning up with excitement and curiosity, while Jim paid no more attention to me than if he had been dancing with a wooden Indian. I examined his pro- gram and found that my name was the only one there, which fact did nothing towards lessening my curiosity, for he had every dance checked for me, even the very few that I didn ' t have with him. He evidently intended not to dance at all. I had the second dance with the New York visitor and it was perfect torment to have to listen to his small talk when my mind was so full of other things. I wondered why I had ever been so thrilled at his attention and so interested in his chatter. It was with a sigh of relief that I saw Jim hurry towards me. Without a word he took my hand and almost ran with me out of the house and pushed me into the back seat of some car. We sat there a moment in silence. My heart was thumping and my breath coming in little pants at the excitement of it all. Jim was sitting with his hands jammed into his pockets and whistling softly under his breath and pounding the floor of the car with his heel. When he gave the floor a terrific knock, almost jammed his hands through his pockets, shook his head and exploded Dog-gone! I turned toward him, for I knew it was coming. Dick and Velma are married. he said simply. I crumpled up in a little heap and it took every atom of my strength to gasp, Jim! It ' s true, dog-gone, if it isn ' t. But how— when— where? I quavered, unable to form a sen- tence. Night before last Dick came by in his little car with Henry and Floyd about ten o ' clock and asked if Velma could drive by the nigger camp meeting with them. Mrs. Williams wouldn ' t let her go at first, but finally said she could go and stay half an hour. Dick had already been over to Sherman and gotten the license and they drove by Mr. Linn ' s and made him get up and go down to the store to give them a wedding ring, then they went over on the South Side and got some minister who didn ' t know them to marry them, for the license said they were both of age. Henry and Floyd acted as witnesses. Then they took Velma home, swore Henry and Floyd to secrecy and the plan was not to tell anybody, he explained. How did you find out? I managed to ask. Well, you see, Velma already had a date with Louis for to- night and they thought it would look too suspicious for her to break it. so she came on and Dick brought Betty, whom they knew they could trust to keep still if she suspected anything. Well, you know Velma. She always tells everything she knows and she hadn ' t been here five minutes before she let it out to Louis, who came raving around to Bob and me about this being the first time he ' d ever had a date with a married lady. Thank Heavens, he hadn ' t told any girls! I went straight to Dick, while Bob kept Louis amused, then we all got him out in the back yard and locked him up in the garage, because we knew he ' d tell everytody there just to spite Dick, and — , he had been talking fast and paused for breath. And what are they going to do? I asked eagerly, impatient for the rest of this marvelous tale. They ' re going to run away tonight catch the Limited in Durant at ten forty-five and go up to Kansas City to an uncle of Dick ' s there who ' s been offering him a job. They wanted me to drive them over to Durant, but I couldn ' t because I had you here, so Bobs going — . Oh. let me go with you. I interrupted, thrilled by the thought of having a part in it all. You couldn ' t, they ' re going in Dick ' s little racer and — . But I would sit on the tool box, I wailed, willing for any- thing but to be left out. I couldn ' t take you. I don ' t know what time we ' d get back and they ' d be worried to death about you at home. he reasoned sorrowfully at disappointing me. But listen to this. Bob ' s gone now to take them to Velma ' s and Betty went along to pack a few things for Velma to take with her while she changes her clothes. Velma ' s mother and father are at the picture show. He ' s going to leave them there, come back and get me and take me down to cash a check for them to get away on. As usual. Dick hasn ' t got a cent, but I think I ' ve got enough for the honeymoon, ' - he grinned at the last word. Then, You can go with us if you want to, he offered consolingly. Of course I did and about that time Bob drove up and we went skimming away to play our little part in the weaving of this web of romance. We stopped at the hotel where Jim cashed a check for every cent he had in the bank. It was the money for his vacation trip, but I don ' t think either one of us thought of it at the time. Then we went by to deliver our congratulations — and necessary funds to the bride and groom. Everything was excitement. Velma was laughing one minute, crying the next and hugging Dick and Betty in between times, but at last we got them all stowed away in the little Stutz and firmly impressed it on the excited chauffeur that he was to drive Betty home and that other irresponsible pair to Durant and buy their tickets. Such was their state that they might have gone to Kalamazoo. Stop by on your way home and tell m-m- mother where we ' ve gone, sobbed the bride. And almost in the same breath she giggled, And let poor Louis out before you leave. Oh, you needn ' t bother about that. called back the generous husband as the car slid away into the night. Jim and I had to walk back, welcoming the chance to discuss the affair in its minutest details. We both thought it was rather foolish, but agreed that it was the most thrilling event that our little city had witnessed since the days of its respecta- bility. It just doesn ' t seem real. I kept repeating. Dog-gone, if it does. He would whistle under his breath, jam his hands into his pockets, and pound the walk with his heel. Always thought things like that just happened in paper back novels. When we got back to the dan e we found the injured Louis enthroned on the library table, holding his audience spell- bound with his conception of the romantic adventure. It seemed the hired man had let him out. but we only smiled patron- izingly on their excitement and held our peace. We thought that at only that moment the runaways were boarding the north bound train. We hadn ' t reckoned with that important factor- — Fate. As bidden, we stopped by the Williams ' on our way home to break the news. Mrs. Williams fainted and Velma ' s dad called Dick several names which it wouldn ' t even be decent to put in story. Jimmy and I, terrified for fear he would suspect our part in the affair, scampered away home, beyond the reach of his wrath. That night we dreamed of a little flat in Kansas City, only to wake the next morning and find the happy pair once more planted in the bosom of their respective families. It was a tragic story, told by a sorrowful bride and a dejected groom of how the Limited had jumped the track three miles out of Durant. how they had been pursued and held by the arms of the law until angry parents could come to claim their offending offspring. And now they ' re going to annul our marriage, Velma would wail and weep on Dick ' s shoulder. The second day brought a dim ray of hope to the unlucky pair. They aren ' t going to annul it after all, Dick would explain. No, Velma would interrupt. We threatened to commit suicide if they separated us, so they compromised. Dick ' s going to work for his Dad and make lots of money and I ' m going away to school and take Domestic Art and Domestic Science and learn to be a good wife for Dick, she would ramble on. Then I ' ll be seventeen and Dick ' ll be nineteen, she would flaunt out proudly. And then, I don ' t see how we can stand a year of it, but yet it ' s better than being divorced. she would finish, with a grimace at the understanding Dick. But the third day brought the wonder of wonders. When we drove by for the daily report, bride and groom came tumbling out of the house, hand in hand like two excited infants, which in reality was only the truth of the matter. Oh, just guess what ' s happened ! — just guess what ' s hap- pened! the bride would chirp, hopping up and down on one foot like an ecstatic sparrow and the groom would pick her up and whirl her around until you could see nothing but a whirligig of pink gingham. Finally in a state of complete exhaustion they sank down on the curbstone and condescended to pant out the reason for their joyful antics. The kiddie ' s not going away to school, Dick grinned his explanation, old folks just decided to — Oh. no. and Dickey and I are going to have a little flat all to ourselves with just one guest room and a bed in it so hard that no one will stay more than one night, aren ' t we? she appealed to him. Dick didn ' t speak, his answer. — Margaret Tone Revenge Is Sweet! After sunset in the Springtime, When the winds are gently blowing, And the crickets chirp their loudest, Oft we stroll upon our campus. Arm in arm we tread the driveway. Speaking low, in hushed accents. For the spirit of the darkness And the magic of the springtime Weave a spell of silence o ' er us That we break not with our voices. Suddenly we halt our footsteps. Cautiously scent hidden danger. What is that the wind wafts towards us? Surely not the tulip ' s fragrance, Or the perfume of the hyacinths In the crescent new-moon beds! Then a vague remembrance stirs us. That we have in midnight ' s slumber Waked, this odious odor dreading. Then the truth at last falls on us— Now we know there is no danger. On we walk and talk together. Tell of rosy dreams of greatness. Or of secrets dear to school girls. In the midst of awed recitals Of our hopes and great desires, Comes like thunder from the mountains, Drawing nearer, becoming stronger. A man ' s huge voice in muffled accents. In his mouth there glows the despoiler Of the unpolluted air. On his lips there bristle whiskers. Standing each upright with anger. To the crowd of Spring ' s young followers Worshiping the God of Nature, Speaks he thus in blaming voice: Understand I, in the Springtime Ladies must not walk at night. Report at once in Miss Mills ' office. Let not this occur again. So as bidden, we turn our footsteps To the office of school justice. But there dwells in all our spirits Vengeful thoughts toward Mr. Hoover, Toward the one who broke our crystal. If we could but exchange places. Then could we unto him say: Hoover, take that vile old cob pipe. Again you ne ' er shall it enjoy. See! we put it on the trash heap. Now you watch it burn to ashes. Might he from this lesson profit. Not to bother in the Springtime Girls, who, for the love of living. Wander in the campus twilight. — M. S. MISS MILLS ' HEART. It is a last year ' s club girl, And she stoppeth one of three — ' By thy bobbed hair and Hofflin blouse, Now wherefore stoppest thou me? My club room doors are opened wide And I am leading rush, We want you pledged, now come with me; On you I have a crush. She holds her with her cutexed hand, You are too late, quoth she; I ' m pledged another, off, begone! Eftsoons her hand dropped she. —H. E. B. F. F.

She ventured a glance at her companion. That lady was sitting painfully upright, hands primly folded, and her sharp, yellowish eyes crinkled at the corners just enough to accentuate the hard expression of the mouth. Neither had spoken for the past hour. Somehow Peggy had failed to make the desired impression. As they drew nearer the little town which was henceforth to be her home, her curiosity became too strong to go unsatisfied. Aunt Priscilla, Dad said Franklin was a wonderful place. Many men? Amelia, the old lady stiffened, I should think your maidenly modesty would prohibit your asking such a question. Your father must have been lax in your rearing. Peggy was brave, but when she was addressed as Amelia in such icy tones she realized that a pleasant conversation was out of the question. Five minutes later the train pulled up to the little station. The girl was bundled into a rickety old surrey beside the driver and driven slowly thru the broad, shady streets. You might urge Miss Snail forward a little. she advised the driver, I want to see the business section. The aged driver grinned. He was interested in the girl beside him, for had he not known her father, known him well in the days when he had been Young Marse William? Well he remembered the elopement. Miss Nancy Hunter had been a mighty sprightly gal, but somehow Colonel McLane had not seen it that way. People said that he had stormed something awful and ordered his son out of his house. After that Marse William and Miss Nancy had gone away somewhere and never returned. What had happened to them. Oh, yes, he remembered. Just last year Miss Nancy had died and now here was her daughter, come to live with her grandparents, while her father went over there to whip the Kaiser. The girl ' s voice broke in on the old fellow ' s musings. I say, uncle, can ' t you persuade this animal to get a move on him? No, mam. Miss, t ' ain ' t possible, Her glad legs done give out. ' Sides, speed limit am eight miles on streets out of town and five miles down Main Street. Dis am a slow town, chile, a powerful slow town. Later the old darkie ' s word came back to her with a double meaning. On Main Street, Peggy saw what she had been looking for, a good-looking man. Oh-h-h! Who is the tall male with the woman-hater air? Is he mortgaged, auntie? He is strictly my boy! She looked at auntie and was silent the rest of the way. By the following Sunday, Peggy McLane was the name on everyone ' s lips — especially was this true of the opposite sex. On this particular Sunday afternoon all the youths of the county were assembled, according to a long established custom at the tiny cigar store on the square known as Bud ' s Place. These gatherings were identical with the Ladies ' Aid Society in one respect, their sole purpose being gossip. There was Rolffs Pinkerton, known as Pink, the leader of the Silent Six, a body of would-be society leaders, sworn to blackball anyone who did not come up to their standard of behavior. Then there was Sticker Ki ng, the most prominent of that body, contemptu- ously called The Cradle by the older boys, just now he was lecturing on that subject of universal discussion, namely, Miss Peggy McLane. I tell you, fellows, that fair damsel may have a seat in my sedan just any old time. Sticker expanded with pride. Few boys have sedans of their own. She told me that she was tired of rocking the cradle. Reckon who she meant? Pink smiled at his younger rival and raised his eyebrows. I don t believe it, the tortured one snapped, but into his eyes there stole a haunted expression. Love at sixteen is such a serious matter. Boys, did you know that she was going to perform some sort of a stunt between acts tomorrow night at the Red Cross show? By George! that is news! all chorused. Here she comes now. Isn ' t that car a cor ker? Yes, the object of their adoration was really coming towards them. All pairs of eyes were turned in her direction — all, with one exception. These belonged to an ancient brother of the church whose chief business in life was being a Christian. Peg saw him as he started across the street and sounded her horn. He did not hear her. In the very nick of time the racer halted. The man turned and did not seem as pleased at the prospect of a quick entrance to Heaven as might have been expected. You dare to run over me! You! You! You—! The old fellow muttered and stuttered. Oh, dear me, Mr. Swinney! Don ' t say it! You know Peter will reach down here and knock you in the head with his keys. With these words the car shot forward, leaving the en- raged Mr. Swinney enveloped in a cloud of dust. Some girl, that. What nerve! All the boys stared at the speaker. Do you mean to tell me that you said something compli- mentary about a girl? asked one of them. I did. 1 would like to meet her. Have you recognized him? He was the tall young man Peggy had seen on the street corner and had called strictly my boy. The next evening a packed and curious house waited im- patiently for the appearance of William McLane ' s daughter. From behind the curtain a violin sounded. Plaintive, plead- ing, sobbing, the tones rang thru the silent house. Many recog- nized the touch of the father in that of the daughter. And the daughter, of what was she thinking? At the first touch of her bow she had lost all consciousness of the people on the other side of the curtain. Tonight, on an impulse she had chosen to play on her father ' s instrument and so it was of him that she was thinking. Her mind passed over the battlefield, her bow catching not the noise and roar of the battle, but the wailings of the human souls on that battle front. She played on and on — then as the curtains parted she stopped abruptly. The audience slowly came back to the present with a sigh, almost of relief. Few had heard such music from the bow of a girl of eighteen. Each note had struck a chord in some heart. She put her violin aside and gave them snatches of popular songs, all the while becoming more warmed up to her subject. In San Domingo, she sang, we met by chance. Didn ' t understand her lingo, but I understood her dance. Then the unexpected happened. She started to dance. Catching the spirit of the song, she went thru all the twistings and snake-like movements of the Hula. The faces of the audience were a study. Never had the prim little town seen anything to equal it. Some of those on the bald-head row con- fessed that it was better than anything they had seen at the Princess. Others, as they expressed it afterwards, were too modest to discuss it. Several of this class left the room. Peggy felt hurt, but never once dreamed that these dear souls had felt any other than indifferent. Peggy was making her toilet the next afternoon when she heard the front door slam and the voice of Aunt Priscilla calling. Amelia! Come down at once. I wish to speak with you. The tone was even more hateful than usual, and Peggy felt no disposition to stir. Amelia! did you hear me? Je comprends. came the teasing answer. Come down this instant. Nihil faciendum. What did you say? Why, Auntie! your Latin is deplorable. I said nothing doing. My obedient spirit does not so move me. Miss Priscilla ' s lack of dignity was rather pronounced as she bounded up the stairs. I will teach you — , she began, then finding the door locked she hissed thru tight lips: Open this door this instant! Can ' t you please wait until I get thru shaving? ;;what— ? I said have a seat in the hall until I finish my shave. Shave! If you don ' t open this door this instant — . Shave what? You—!! The door opened and the vixen almost fell inside. Oh! just my eyebrows, Auntie. They had almost lost that ' come hither ' expression. Theda has it, you know. I shall not attempt an analysis of the older woman ' s emo- tions. She sat down limply and motioned Peg to a chair. That young lady walked slowly in the opposite direction and perched herself in the middle of the bed. Well? and her brows arched. I have just arrived from town. Everyone is discussing you and your most shameful — Oh, did they really tell you how beautiful they thought I was, or was it my dress? Even the feather in Miss Priscilla ' s bonnet was trembling as she arose and shaking her finger in her niece ' s face, she raged. You! They are talking about you, and in no complimentary terms, either. You have disgraced us and your poor, misguided father. We might have expected it with such a mother. Just think of it! The Superintendent of the High School has resigned and joined the Y. M. C. A. workers because of your disgraceful performance of last night in the school auditorium. Think of it! You come here and drive good. God-fearing men to give up their positions, and, moreover, I heard Mrs. Sidway telling Mrs. Brown that she was going to entertain Sophia Mai to- morrow evening. She said that of course she could not afford to invite that ' immodest chorus girl ' to her home. She was not the girl to chum with her daughter. Mrs. Brown agreed and said she would see that ' my poor, dear John does not get within her reach, for what would she do to him? Now, see what you have brought on yourself! Peg was dumfounded. For some minutes after she was left alone she sat motionless on the bed. Her aunt had undoubtedly spoken the truth, but what did it mean? Surely there was nothing sinful in dancing, or her father would not have encouraged her in taking lessons all these years. She turned it over and over in her mind, but it was beyond her understanding. You who live in a small town know how to sympathize with her. Gossip turned on the starter and put her foot to the throttle. The old darkies words had a new meaning now. She believed that dis am a slow town with all her heart. I will not go to that house party! Peggy emphasized her words by striking everything in view with her riding crop. I won ' t, I will not! I loathe that Elizabeth House. She just asked me out there so that she could insult me. Her grand- mother had said that she could stay at home, but Aunt Priscilla raged and fumed until Peggy decided it was better to go. One thing which made the prospect particularly unbearable was the tact that she was going, too. Peg could not understand why anyone would ask Aunt Priscilla to chaperon. Elizabeth House ' s big home was a blaze of light. Tonight a large party from town had joined the house-party guests Just now the musicians were resting and Peggy found herself the center of a large group of boys. Mr. John Brown had been watching her from a distance all evening, and now gather- ing courage, he determined to take the bold step. Mrs Brown saw her wayward son start toward the dreaded Charybdis. Lay- ing her hand on his arm she whispered in tones distinctly audible thru the entire room: My dear! Do leave that impossible creature alone ' 1 hen she moved heavily up the stairs. ■ p eggy pretended to laugh at some trivial remark while the brown eyes narrowed slightly. .. Q . 7 he ,. ca ' ! Don ' t pay any attention to her. comforted Sticker, whose devotion was of that undying sort, and therefore I wouldn ' t cry about it. Cradle, whispered Pink in Sticker s ear. This did not escape Peg. either How she longed to box his ears! Lately he and his Silent Six had deemed it their duty to slight her in every possible way. When the music started again she slipped away from the crowd and stole up the stairs. For the first time tears gathered in her eyes. She longed to be away from it all— anywhere— anything was preferable to this. Slowly a malicious gleam dried the tears in her eyes. Was not there a light in Aunt Priscilla ' s room and one in the room opposite? Picking up a pillow she began to speak in low. mascu- line tones. Precious, you were wonderful tonight. Oh. Jack, she whispered in her natural voice, as she took her seat in a chair directly in front of her aunt ' s door. Come on. Peg, sit on my knee, the masculine voice con- tinued. ;X3h! Please! P-1-e-a-s-e, don ' t squeeze me so tight. _ Aren t you afraid your aunt will hear you? No, indeed! She uses some kind of an ear trumpet. I have seen it and her false teeth, too. What about Mrs. Brown, across the way? That old cat with the gift of gab can ' t even — Both doors flew open simultaneously. .. Am .elia! Miss Priscilla peered up and down the hall where is that young man? W-h-a-t? in sugary tones of meek surprise. You know what I mean, and she shook the convulsed Peggy.

Two figures were seated in the window. She heard her name. Would they never stop talking about her? She listened. Everyone said haSu things about her, why should she not eavesdrop? It is a shame the way they have treated her, Peggy recog- nized her tall young man and her hostess. _ Yes, that is true, assented Elizabeth I have never seen such spirit as she showed when she first came, the young man spoke earnestly and continued, Jove ' H °YL s , he . can rriake that vi ol ' n talk!

Somehow she almost felt sorry for her her world was such a narrow, prim little place. The Or- orchestra inside played on and on and still the girl sat there a little smile playing around her lips.

War Work At Ward-Belmont In 1 91 7-1 8 XT would be strange if the fighting in France and the raising of a great army in America made no difference in our school life Many of the girls had spent part of their vacation making surgical dressings or helping in Red Cross membership drives and they were ready to respond to every appeal for service. Not all reports of work done are yet in. but we point with pride to some of the results whose total we have helped to swell. First of all. the Students ' Friendship Fund for Y. M. and Y. W. War Work amounted to $3,397.00. The appeal was made by Dr. Jacob, who talked to us so impressively of his experiences in German prison camps that we felt like giving all we had to send food packets and Y. M. C. A. workers to the imprisoned. Miss Hege. our Y. W. Secretary, was given leave of absence for eight weeks to help in the campaign for the fund in Tennessee. But we had our Red Cross membership to complete and classes to organize. We have had the right to fly the white flag which signifies that every student and every member of the faculty is enrolled in Red Cross. That will mean nearly eight hundred members. The Red Cross classes in Hygiene and in First Aid have been led by surgeons from the city and a nurse from the City Health Department. Fifty-six students have taken both courses and had the work counted in credits for graduation. Even if the half-point credit had not been allowed for the two courses they would have been worth while, as those who received their certificates can testify. Six of the clubs gave benefits or offerings from the club treasury to contribute to Red Cross funds and $500.00 was raised in this way. Faculty and some individual gifts are not included in this amount. Just before Christmas everybody began knitting. A few absent-minded girls ventured to class-rooms with knitting needles, but no note-book. The lack of encouragement in this course may have caused its sudden abandonment. Even without the time lost to knitting by this insistence on the ordinary duties of class-room, four hundred sweaters were sent. The supply of blue and of khaki wool ran short, for to the sweaters were added eighty-five scarfs, sixty-two wristlets, thirty helmets, and twenty-one pairs of socks. One club made also three covers for ambulances. Christmas boxes were packed and sent before we left for our holidays. We did not hear from all the eighty-two we sent, but we are hoping none of them landed anywhere except in the camps for which we intended them. After Christmas surgical dressigns work began under t he direction of Mrs. Blanton. On Monday mornings and Thursday after- noons the basement of Heron Hall has been a busy place. Already seven hundred bandages have been made, two hundred shot bags, several thousand gauze dressings, and as many applicators. One night a week members of the faculty work in the same way. No appeal to the school as a whole has been made for the Fatherless Children of France, but five of the clubs were visited by Mrs. Dempsey Weaver and Miss Catherine Pilcher. who presented the cause so effectively that the support of thirty-three orphans was under- taken. A few of the girls had already pledged themselves to share in this work through societies in their home towns. Dr. Clarence Ussher, Medical Missionary from Armenia, held one of the stay-at-home Sunday services in March. He gave us a most moving picture of the tragedy of Armenia and the pitiable condition of the thousands of refugees now absolutely dependent upon foreign aid. No collection has been made at the time this is written, but one club has sent in $100.00, another $5.00, and one individual has pledged $120.00. The Red Cross appeal for clothing for destitute refugees from the invaded districts was met by a room-to-room canvas. Only articles in good condition were received and each dormitory had a substantial box of shoes and usable garments ready for the city col- lector. Books for the American Library Association camp libraries came next. It was a novel idea to think of discarded French grammars and well-worn European histories as much-desired text-books. Rooms were cleared of these and of current fiction so that when the Y. W. C. A. counted the volumes the school had given nearly five hundred. Eyes for the Navy, field glasses and binoculars, were asked for in February when Ensign Walker, who had thought of the plan, spoke in the Chapel. Almost everybody promised to write home and see if there were not glasses to be loaned for the duration of the war. The result was a considerable number sent to Ward-Belmont and then forwarded to Washington. Perhaps it will be one of these that will serve to guard our transports. All of them will surely be used and the record of service of each one will be greatly prized. The campaigns for Liberty Bonds and War Savings Certificates were enthusiastically received. In Liberty Bonds the members of six reporting clubs have taken $25,500.00, and in War Savings and Thrift Stamps, $1,736.50. These amounts are approximate because in some instances the girls do not know the denomination of a bond held for them in home banks, but everybody has been patriotic and some Christmas and birthday funds have gone to pay for the Buy a Bond movement. Just as Milestones goes to press the Thrift Stamp Carnival has gone into history — Preps Patriotic Pastime, the posters called it. After all the fun was over and the grease paint washed off. Miss Paine had to call for an adding machine. Twenty-six hundred Thrift Stamps sold for Uncle Sam! That makes a large part of the six thousand which the Book Room has sold. And last of all the effort to inform ourselves as to the causes of the war and its present significance is part of our war work. To help in this cause a number of distinguished speakers have appeared before the girls. General Sir Thomas Lawrence and his son. Capt. Lawrence, from the famous Coldstream Guards gave us the English point of view; Captain Loriot and Lieutenant Vernet were good ex- amples of the officers that have made the French our admiration; Major Ian Hay Beith heartened us in the week of the great German drive on Amiens by his o ptimistic Carrying On; Lieutenant Shannon Cormack, of the Canadians, made an unforgettable speech that fired all of us to make the world safe for democracy; and Miss Helen Fraser from the War Council in England, informed us about what English women are doing for the Government. Ballad of a Botanist No doubt you ' ve heard the story Of Iambs upon the green, No doubt in fall and winter. Fully twenty girls you ' ve seen; No doubt to self and others, Have queried why the fuss — The little lambs upon the green Have not a thing on us. Tho ' oft in rainy weather, And sometimes ice and snow. We tramp the country far and wide, The ways of plants to know. Into the highest trees we climb, Into the water wade, The leaves, the scars, the scales to find. To see how each is made. And after hours of toiling. Into the lab we go, A hurrying, scurrying, weary crowd. The inner plant to know. Before the table seated. With razor, point and glass, Miss Lewis there has meted An outline for the class. Into the wee small hours. In tiny cubby crept, At length with outline finished. We find we haven ' t slept. With morning light comes Botany, The never-ending grind, Promptly, to Miss Lewis, We give the darn outline. When five long weeks of this kind. The end of quarter ' s here. Remembering well the darn outline. For Botany we have no fear. Miss Lewis then into the class. Our quarterly grade to see. And after minutes of suspense. She calmly yells out E! A crowd we were, a sight to see On my first night at W-B; Worn out and tired from our long trip. Was every girl with her heavy grip. But I should worry over this, Thought I, Not one thing must I miss. At first we had our dinner, then We all were sent to Academ, Where classified we had to get, Slowly, slowly, step by step. At first it all seemed simply grand; I didn ' t mind to have to stand And wait my turn in this long line. To get another paper signed. But finally my nerves gave way And something in me seemed to say, If this keeps up you ' ll go to bed. Not just to sleep, but to ease your head. At last I reached a window where, I learned ' twas over; my room from there. I turned around perchance to see, Some girl who might be kind to me, And tell me where to find my room And if my room-mate yet had come. But horrors! there I stood alone; The others had already gone: I walked out on the campus bright. A stranger now, half dead with fright; Which way to turn, which way to go To find my room I did not know. Just then a voice came to my ears, Barely in time to check my tears. An old girl, very kind and good. Before me in the pathway stood; I asked her which walk I should take To find my hall without mistake; She gladly took me all the way, Your card let ' s see, then she did say: Oh, dear, a conflict here I ' ve found. Now that ' s hard luck, and then she frowned. Poor girl, I ' m sorry, but it ' s so; It ' s necessary that you go Again tomorrow morning, soon. To that same classification room. — W. L.

I am bid to bring you there. So come with me down the stair. Every Student — How can it was, that I must go To that dread room, I prithee no.

All the executioners stand masked, jusqua dents, in a semi- circle. One Hundred is in living flames oj fire and the round eyes spit out fire and brimstone. All the executioners grin and mutter wickedly and fearfully. Powers That Be step forward — Every Student, we are sad (snigger) That your actions were so bad (mostly bad). No sympathy we have with you Nor with the pranks we see you do; And so we ' ve called you here tonight. So watch your step and do just right. You ' ve walked with fellows on the street And in exams we saw you cheat! You spent the night out of your room. So falls to you an awful doom. Now if you ' ve one to plead your cause. Produce her. ere we read our laws; For once a law is read to you. There nothing else is left to do; For you ' ll be banished from our sight And mayhap on this very night. Speak up, what have ye now to say? Don ' t stand there trembling in that way. Every Student — Ah, cruel fate which led me so, What made me do it, I don ' t know; I pray you be not hard on me, I am so very weak you see. Powers — Yea, weak you are and weak you ' ll be When we at last are through with thee. Ye jury now will give decision (all laugh). Each grin at her and show derision. Horror, thou art quite a beauty. Step thou forth and do thy duty. Horror— I am the horribly hateful one; To see ye suffer would sure be fun, So I ' ll deprive ye of privileges rare Of the few ye had, ye none could spare. So now say goodbye to dances and teas And even the ' Silver Spoon ' if you please. And take ye to heart, ye lesson tonight. And your family regret ye didn ' t do right. Terror, what have ye to say Ere this session ends today? Say I, to the wilful creature, That she should have had a teacher Who ' d force her to keep the rule In this or any other school. So say I, ' twould be far better To send the ones at home a letter Saying we had shipped their daughter (C. O. D.) After we have made the slaughter. Our school here is not the place For any one so bold of face. Justice, now we ' ll hear from you — What think you we ought to do? Justice- Place her ' fore the firing line, And tonight is just the time. Say I, load your guns and shoot. Send her home then, dead, ' to boot. ' Powers — Victim, you have heard your sentence, It is too late for repentance; So stand up ' gainst the wall so white So they ' ll know how to shoot ye right. M. U. F., don ' t try to flop. In a minute you ' ll go over the top. Every Student — Alas, shall we thus part, indeed? Ah! prithee, help me in my need. Conscience! Hast thou forsake me, too? Then there is nought for me to do; My hopes are fled, I ' m to be dead. I prithee, gentle Powers that Be. Let me my mother once more see. My father, too, alas that he. Is not on hand to rescue me; And Dan — oh! Dan — to him one kiss — Ah! how his letters I will miss. When I am gone, they ' ll say, perchance. Poor mortal, died somewhere in France. Ah! Powers that Be, pray let me loose, My soul is aching like the deu Have I no friends, Am I alone. Never again to see my home? Peace — my heart is hard as rock, ' Tis eleven-thirty by the clock, In sixty seconds you ' ll be none; We ' ll send you on the train at one. Come, executioner, do your bit. Take careful aim, be sure to hit. They shoot at her. That ' s fine; Oh, Boy! she drops and die; No more we ' ll hear her pleading cries; Step forward Terror, Horror, too. Remove the corpse from this room — do, And place it on the L. N. To be transferred to Forest Glen And then put on the B. O. That to her parents ' home will go; And send a wire down at the station To have her parents there and waitin . Now go ye council off to bed And rest each every empty head ; I ' ll post the news in Middle March, In Academic, in the Arch; Have it announced in chapel, too, ' Twill warn the others what to do. Terror and Horror lake up the body and all file out to the tune of Chopin ' s funeral dirge. GUE My long discourse to you is done. Ye sands of time have filled and run, There ' s moral here to every one And school girls, I ' m excepting none. Now those who wish can live and learn; Others in Hell ' s-Mouth writhe and burn. Finis. Here endeth the moral play entitled, Every Student. — Frances Sconce. The Bells Hear that most unwelcome clamor of the bells. Rising bells!

There is something diffe Dining bells! What a different kind of hurry this fc Bells at morning, noon and night. To be late we ' re told not right And to cut is utterly unpardonable. So we rush with tousled head, Get there before the blessing ' s said, To the time of bells, bells, bells, bells Bells, bells, bells. Oh. yes. everything is done by bells. holly, in the bells etells. So I pray you, hear my song of the bells. School bells. Time for work and play alike the familiar sound foretells. Church and concert, dance and revel. All are placed on one level. By the jingling, tingling bells. By the clanging, wrangling bells. So our school days go and come. Quiet of study, play and hum. To the time of bells, bells, bells. To the rime of bells, bells, bells. Never could I give all meanings. Never could I give all feelings In the bells, bells, bells, bells. Bells, bells, bells. In the sound of Ward-Belmont bells. —Dorothy Cobb. Vagrancy In Spring I follow the vagrant stream That winds thru fields of grain, Where silver lilies and daisies gleam Midst crimson poppies ' stain. The Maytime world ' s abloom with Spring, With colorful ecstacy; The birds and stream together sing, Tempting to vagrancy. Beneath their sweet and rosy showers The apple trees are bent; The hawthorne hedges ' fragrant flowers Melt into wild-rose scent. Pausing to pluck the flowers I love, Wild Iris, purple and white; I raise glad eyes to the sky above, Where a thrush thrills in delight. Alone I follow the vagrant stream Kver and onward led, And of youth and hope I muse and dream Till the day has almost sped. Nothing my happiness can alloy, For my heart aloud does sing, As I thank God for the youth and joy Of this world of vagrant Spring. —M. H. J? .

The And; And : The An English D Recitation Dramatis Personse Miss Thomas Supervisor of library reading, alias teacher of English D. English D Class Twenty-six toil-worn and emaciated looking girls, who spend countless weary hours in the dark and dreary library cramming innumerable assignments in a vain attempt to inveigle a passing grade from the insatiable Miss Thomas. Scene — Academic Building. Time — 11:30 a. m. Four days out of every seven. Class comes in and seats itself hurriedly, feverishly looking through note-books to collect the numerous reading reports. Miss Thomas: I will take the roll hurriedly today as I have to submit to the class two extremely important and urgent matters which are of imperative and impelling interest to each and every one of you. Before hurrying on with our work for today, which, as you doubtless recall, is concerned with Milton ' s Areopagitica, Dante ' s Inferno Purgatorio, Dryden ' s Essay of Dramatic Poesy, Astrea Redux, Absolom and Achitophel, Sir Thomas Browne ' s Religio Medici, Hydriotaphia, Milton ' s Paradise Lost, Samson Agonistes, Pope ' s Essay on Man, The Rape of the Lock, all of the Sir Roger de Coverly Papers, the entire work of Richard Steele and Joseph Addison, all of Bacon ' s Essays, England ' s Helicon, and the Microcos Mographia in your Century Readings. The outside readings, as you probably re- member, dealt with the first twenty-five chapters in Minto, based upon the works of Vaughan, Denham, Donne, Davenant, Love- lace, Grashaw, and Suckling, pages 277 to 620 in Saintsbury, giving a delightfully charming and irresistible account of the history and influence of the no-vcl-la, its Italian source, English adoption and subsequent popularity, and the last fifteen chapters of Schelling, which gives a remarkably coherent and enticing style, coupled with the most marvelous technique, and one might say, soul-stirring subject matter. A hand waves wildly from the back seat. Miss Thomas: Yes, I know it will be impossible for you to report on Schelling this morning. Sad, sad, isn ' t it? I will attend to that painful matter in a moment. Turns to first girl: How do you stand with the reading? First Girl: I have read everything except part of the Microcos Mographia. Miss Thomas: Indeed! and what reason do you offer for this laxity? Girl: I just didn ' t have time to get it all in. Miss Thomas: Didn ' t have time— really? Is that so? Can that be possible? This sounds extremely peculiar to me, as I can readily call up in my mind ' s eye a very vivid picture of the nights I have lain awake reading the Microcos Mographia to my heart ' s content. Your assignment for today was shorter than usual, too. The trouble with this school is that there ' s so much play going on here all the time. When I went to school, although I was not as dull as the average pupil, I found it neces- sary to spend every available minute with my work. Serious- ness of purpose seems strangely lacking here. You can ' t imagine how horror-stricken I was last week when two girls asked me to chaperon a Monday afternoon pleasure party. This English D is a serious proposition; you have invested your money in it; and how do you expect to obtain favorable results when you insist upon throwing away your Monday afternoons during which time you could accomplish so much valuable reading? I think it would be an excellent plan for you girls to spend, say, two hours and a half a day, reading, just for your own pleasure, of course, some of the great things which have with- stood the ravages of time through the centuries and which will always be known as the highest and best in the annals of the world ' s literature. You would never miss this time, and I am sure it would not interfere in the least with the time spent on your regular assignments. There are so many things that we must read before our toilsome journey through this vale of tears is ended and we go to meet the Black Camel that kneels at every man ' s gate. When your summons comes to join the innumerable caravan which moves to that mysterious realm where each shall take his chamber in the silent halls of Death, think of the great feeling of satisfaction you will experience in knowing that you used all of your time upon this earth in the way most profitable to you, by reading faithfully all of the required English D works and the selections which I occasionally advise. Turns to next girl. Have you completed your reading? Second Girl: Everything except Saintsbury. I couldn ' t get the book. Miss Thomas: Couldn ' t get the book? That sounds rather flimsy when you know there are two copies in the library and only twenty-six girls in the class. You will have to hand in your Saintsbury report with your next assignment. By the way, 1 will post on the board here a list of readings which will furnish a realistic background for Saturday ' s assignment. You may come over this afternoon and copy it. After many similar wranglings and suggestions all down the alphabet, this performance is finally ended. Miss Thomas: The occurrence about which I feel it my duty to speak is shameful in the extreme. No doubt long ere this you have experienced the deepest distress and consternation upon learning of the mysterious disappearance of Schelling from our midst. Can it be that one of a class in which I had such implicit faith has become so lost to Hope as to have deliberately concealed the book? This is indeed too cruel a blow! Let us hope that the missing book will soon be restored to its custom- ary resting place so that your reading and my peace of mind may be resumed. Now, I have a thoroughly delightful and unique idea which I am sure will meet with the immediate approval of the entire class. As long as you have to abstain from eating lunch on your English D test days in order that you may use the lunch hour for writing on your examination. I thought it would be a very feasible plan and one agreeable to everybody concerned, to hold an examination in this room from three to five o ' clock next Monday afternoon. Class groans, slides down in seats and stares hopelessly at the ceiling. Miss Thomas: Of course there are no objections to this plan. Two damsels on the front seat offer a feeble protest. Miss Thomas, our father will be here Monday, and as long as Monday is our legal holiday, we had planned— Miss Thomas: Is that so? Well, that ' s no real reason, is it? Just a purely selfish and personal reason against the wishes of the entire class. So, as long as the majority of the class has requested that we have the examination from three to five next Monday afternoon, that will have to stand. Now, we will have to hurry along with just a passing word about some of our work from yesterday which we did not com- plete, but first take down your assignment for Saturday- Edmund Spencer ' s Faerie Queene and Epithalamion, Sir Philip Sidney ' s Arcadia. John Lily ' s Euphues. Edmund Burke ' s Con- ciliation with the Colonies, Edward Gibbon ' s Fall of the Roman Empire. Macauley ' s and Boswell ' s Biographies of Samuel John- son, Fielding ' s Tom Jones; you will probably experience a shrinking of the flesh when you read this, but in the long run you will find it time very profitably spent; Don Quixote, and try to read all of Don Quixote at a sitting; Savantes ' most famous production is much more enjoyable when read as a whole. Then, too. I would like you to take chapters eighteen to thirty- one in The English Men of Letters; be sure to read all of the criticisms of Moliere and Boileau on your work for Saturday, and then, as you will not recite tomorrow, just finish that book of Minto; 1 believe there are only about fourteen more chapters. Now. we must hurry along. We left Every Man in His Humour at the wife-beating scene, did we not? Here we see a superfluity of horse play, hot airing and guffawing, with more than a sufficiency of ranting, bombast and pomposity. There are many anfractuosities of style, but marvelous felicity of ex- pression. Here we see a return of Jonson ' s labyrinthine manner and recoco style. We will skip over Bunyan, as moralizing in any form an- noys me. We had not quite finished our discussion concerning the Letters of Lady Mary Wortley Montague, and of Lord Chesterfield, had we? I read Lord Chesterfield ' s Letters to His Son. when a right young girl, and from then until now I have strictly adhered to Chesterfield ' s advice concerning matrimony, with the result that I am still enjoying single blessedness. I have a little book of very spicy Chesterfieldian criticisms, written by my friend. Professor Billy Phelps of Yale, which you may read in connection with your next assignment. Just a word in passing about Corinna ' s Going A-Maying. Now, if you have no serious objections, it would increase my enjoyment of life a hundredfold, and release poor old Herrick from the hair-raising nightmares I know he must be going through during his last long sleep, by changing your manner of spelling a certain word. In the aforementioned poem Herrick sounds the hedon- istic note not the heathcnislic note. How you could make such an unpardonable mistake is more than my feeble powers of insight can fathom. It is more than unjust to make such a heinous accusation against the dead. Now, in Defoe ' s Essay on Projects we see a very modern and broad-minded note in the view he took regarding life insur- ance for sailors. Just think what a comfort and a solace it must have been to the people who lost relatives on the Tuscania, a month or two ago, to know that their loss was fully covered by insurance. There was really nothing lost; those men ' s lives were paid for. Life insurance is truly a great thing, and Defoe ' s master mind was one of the first to institute this wonderful method of relieving Death of its sting. In Paradise Lost we see that Milton was very fond of capital letters, and we admire very much the wonderful, bironic character of Satan. In Samson Agonistes the dominant note seems to be Milton ' s stickomithia style. Didn ' t you find the pithy, epigrammatic sentence of Bacon charming? Such a relief from the old tyranny of the epithet and artificiality of tone, was it not? Now, we must hurry along and begin on our today ' s work I know you enjoyed your widely assorted readings on Pope and that you have a complete list of all his cynical sayings and have memorized his best satirical passage. There are those who say that Pope was a great liar, but I don ' t hold that against him at all. because there ' s really no harm in lying, is there? If you go about it in the right way it ' s really a rather clever art. Class looks rather surprised and Bible students stare with shocked and unbelieving eyes. Here lunch bell clangs furiously, but Miss Thomas lectures right on, absolutely unmindful of everything except her rather unusual manner of regarding one of the seven deadly sins. Miss Thomas: I have in mind a gentleman friend of mine who has always made a practice of lying; he lied during my mother ' s youth and is still lying now during mine — but, his lies have never done any real harm; in fact, he is regarded as a most worthy and reputable man by all who know him. Addresses girl on back seat: Now, will you give us a full summary of Pope ' s works, out- lining them as to date, classification of form and subject matter, character and salient characteristics of style and expr giving your favorite portions of each and stating your for your choice? The poor girl who has thus become the pitied target begins turning the pages of her note-book in a most distracted manner. Miss Thomas: Why! You don ' t have to look into your notes, do you? Why. I thought of course that all of those items were securely pigeon-holed among the convolutions of your grey matter. Guess, why don ' t you? Make a stagger, at any rate. No response but air. Miss Thomas: Well, we will leave you to meditate upon the subject, as we must hurry along now. There has always been an ominous rumor that Pope was never at his best as a brilliant conversationalist until after he had indulged in several glasses of wine. Of course you girls do not know anybody like this, but possibly you have heard of someone. There is positively nothing that adds confidence to the individual like a few glasses of wine. Now, we must hurry along and conclude today ' s lecture with the great psychological truth we deduct from the Essay on Man, that happiness is an attitude rather than the possession of fine togs, diamonds and automobiles. It had nearly slipped my mind that I will have to absent myself from you and English D for a day or two in order that I may take a little Easter rest cure. My train leaves at 12:15 Saturday, which will necessitate my leaving the class-room at twelve, so rather than have you miss fifteen minutes from your English D lecture I will allow the class to have a regular lesson tomorrow, Friday, you may come in at the fifth period. I will see Miss McDuffie and make arrangements, so that all conflicts with other classes will be eliminated. Of course, this will not interfere with your half hour ' s work on Saturday at the regular time. Just a moment, stop at the bookroom on your way out, and if the Congreve plays have come, add to your tomorrow ' s assignment, the reading of Love for Love and The Way of the World. I would also like you to read The Atheist and the Acorn, a very witty and unusual little didactic dialogue. The class makes a unanimous bolt for the door, a headlong dive down the stairs, and a tear across the campus just in time to meet the people returning from lunch. — L. A. B.
