Nature? 6911111 in QBIII' Mihai Babu-Blue-Eyes- Bee Dyke--VV'hen skies are smiling and the earth is already clothed with a luxuriant and tender herbage, we find upon some balmy morning that the baby-eyes have opened in gentle surprise. Heralds of Summer-Ruth Freiermuth-Martin Franich. Indian Paint-Brush-Mr. Dyche-Scarlet flowers are so rare, and nature is so chary of that beautiful hue, that these flowers are especially wel- come. Their dense tufts make brilliant dashes of color, which are very notice- able amid the vivid greens of springtime. Innocence-Mary' Ben Simpson. lVz'Id Bachelors Button-Joe Meidl. Scarlet llflonkey-Flower-Jerry Driscoll-During a walk around the school, at almost any time of the year. we may find the corn-colored blossoms of the sticky monkey-flower. lVaIlflower-Helen Grieg, Ruby Beilby. Gum Plant-Donald Krough-So-called because of the balsamic exu- dation which is found mostly upon the flower heads. lViId-Date-Elmore Eipper. Balm of Heaven fSen-Seny-Bud Silvey-ln early springtimethe whole school notes this spicy fragrance. The Balm of Heaven is shaping out a delicious penetrating odor from its countless blossoms, passing it to everyone. Lantern of the Fairies-Billy Batchelder-Just before the oncoming of summer our crowded halls and classrooms entertain one of the most charming of flowers, for the graceful stalks of the satin-bell begin to throw out their delicate white arms to the tune of the roller skates. Wherever they go, night or day, these flowers win instant and enthusiastic admiration for their ability to whirl around corners, sit down, and come up whole. Four-O'c1ocks-Delwin lVlurray, Edward Hanjes, Walter Shew, Mil- dred Bardmess-Wlien the period is partly over, when the halls are emptied of hurrying blossoms. the bright little four-o'clo:ks begin to open their myriad magenta-colored eyes, and wander into the class rooms. Johnny-Jump-Up-Alma Dahnken-'llaunty-faced. laughing-lipped, and dewy-eyed with glee. Hearfs-Ease-Lorraine Pullen- By scattered rocks and turbid waters shifting. By furrowed glade and dell, To feverish men the calm, sweet face uplifting. Thou stayest them. Page Seventeen

Well, it's a long story, said Principal Bill as he hooked his thumbs in his suspenders and spat tobacco juice with fine precision and finesse upon the new stove.

One night while on one of my larks, Ll haven't got rid of the old urge yetj, l chanced into the Putrid Stew night club where Gene Gregerson is a cabaret singer and Helen Grieg his accompanist. The hostess, Edith King, gave me a seat right at one of the front tables. fHot dog! J. Joe and Del still sat enraptured with popping eyes and mouths wide open, their gaze alone seemed to entreat Bill to continue. Tommy Ready has followed his literary pursuits also, continued Billy, and now he is editor of the Moss Landing Daily Whiff. Eleanor Gerdau is Society Editor and Mildred Silliman is in charge of the Advice to the Lovelorn column. Cupie Hendricksen, Wine Lister, and Lefty Novacovich have gone on an extensive big game hunt into the wilds of Corn Cob Canyon in search of the elusive Wimpus Bird.

What's become of Benny Matsuda. our famed pitcher? asked Del. Oh, Benny is making use of that twirling arm slinging hash at the Roma Hotel, answered Billy, continuing the research. Evelyn Morehead has just acquired the title of Miss America at Atlantic City last year. She just beat out Janet McCready by a tonsil. A'Hooray for our Evelyn, gleefully shouted the other two thirds of the congregation.
