Bride’s First Dinner “Oh, there’s the ’phone, and I’m so busy. Oh, well, such is fate. Hello, hello, it’s who? I can’t hear you. You say it’s Uncle Tate? You say you’re coming out for dinner? Surely not tonight! I mean — I’m just a bride ,you know, And cooking’s such a fright. Well, come ahead. I’d love to have you. We’ll have a hearty meal. Gocd-by. Now why did I do that? Oh! I’m really such a heel. What shall I have? Oh, yes, potatoes. They’re always swell to cook. Now let’s see. First I peel them. I think That’s in the book. How shall I fix them? Fried or boiled? Or maybe lyonnaisse. I guess I have to fix a roast, I’ll Flavor it with mace. How shall I fix the salad? Fred Always calls it grass. Oh, well, anyhow, at bride’s school they told me To make the salad last. The potatoes! Oh, good heavens. Golly! There’s the ’phone! And the doorbell Oh, good glory! They say There’s peace at home. Hello, hello. Just wait a minute. There’s Someone at the door. Uncle Tate! Oh, wait a minute. The water’s Running on the floor. I forgot to turn the faucet when I Heard you at the door. There’s some one on the ’phone. Sit down. I’ll Only be a minute more. Oh, they’ve hung up. Here comes Fred. He’s such a grand host. I’ll go put dinner on the table. Oh! I didn’t cook the roast! Boo, hoo. Oh, why didn’t you Marry someone who Could wash, and clean, look pretty ONE NEVER KNOWS .... By JANET BURWELL Reginald De Quincy Alexander, a tall, robust man whose life was beginning and his hair ending at forty, retired, little dreaming that his son, snoring in the adjoining room, was to disturb his slumber. It was a slumber which was so sound that the pounding of a gavel on his bedpost would not have awakened him. In fact, if it hadn’t been for the family’s pet white mouse running across his none-too-handsome face he would never have known of the strange event which was to occur that night. “Drat that rat!” exclaimed Reginald, but he never got any farther in his tirade to the defenseless mouse for the most unearthly sound reached his elephantine ears. It sounded like the beating of a tom-tom by an Indian camp’s musical genius. At present it was accelerating into a mad frenzy causing poor Reginald to pull his bed covers more closely about him. Reginald breathed a sigh of relief; the horrible pounding had ceased. With a sense of regained courage Reginald started to drop into deep slumber only to be jerked mercilessly from And cook your dinner, too. I’ll never try to cook again. I vow I never will How can you win your in-laws by Feeding them with swill?” Bette Haywood English VIII A Lighthouse I’d like to be a lighthouse All washed and painted white, I’d like to be a lighthouse And keep awake all night. I’d like to be a lighthouse And shine far o’er the sea I’d like to be a lighthouse And guide ships away from me. I ' d like to be a lighthouse And watch my part of the sea I’d like to be a lighthouse With the ships all watching me. Donna Jean Reich English I Getting Up It’s hard to get up in the morning And crawl out of bed in the cold But I know that I must because if I don’t My mother will be sure to scold If I could only go back to sleep But I can ' t for I hear mother call So I hop out of bed and hurry to dress There! It wasn’t so bad after all. Donald Johnson English 7 it again. The noise now had reached such a tempo that the house began to tremble noticeably. Reginald quick- ly perceived, with use of his deductive reasoning powers, that this disturb- ing factor was coming from the vicin- ity of the east, outside wall. He dash- ed madly out his front door leaving his bathrobe and slippers to shift for themselves. Reginald made a comical picture. He had on his patriotic red„ white, and blue pajamas; the colors, being arranged in such startling de- signs he looked like a nightmare. Our hero thus attired attempted to stroll manfully about his estate. However, I believe his knees shook for his once friendly yard now took on an errie appearance. As he drew closer to the terrifying noise his much-prized bushes looked like mechanized troops ready to attach. The red geraniums laughed at him and the beady eyes of the devoted white mouse, although in- forming him he had a companion, completed his horror. Now Reginald De Quincy Alexan- der’s temperament was by no means mild and when he heard the bass viol- like laughter of his neighbor, Profes- sor Von Bommgarten, it was the last straw. He shrieked hysterically “Von Bommgarten this is no laughing mat- ter. I’ve lost three hours sleep and you stand there and — -” his voice cracked — “and laugh.” His illustrious neighbor ignored him entirely. Then Reginald calmed down enough to fol- low his aggravating neighbor’s gaze. There above him in the second story window sat Reginald De Quincy Alex- ander Jr., his feet hanging over the edge of the window sill and swinging alternately against the side of the house like two pendulums. The Pro- fessor remarked dryly, “My diagnosis is as follows: A most amusing exam- ple of somnambulism. Expressed on your level — sleep-walking.” Twenty-Three
