XL ' IC the Spirit ot ' ln csti -ation set out to journcx tlirouu ' h a beautiful couutiy. Although still nouul;-. he had of late heeu uiuch ahroad. It is his habit, perhaps nou know, to find out all thinj s and to tell his discoveries to mankind; and some- times the thin ;s he discloses in this way are very yelcome, and sometimes they are most unpleasant, but he never con- ceals anything-. As he journeyed on, now through a grassy meadow, now by the irregular margin of an island-dotted lake, and again through a beautiful wood, he came at length to a sandy road which stretched on toward the east, and on one side ran four lines of glittering steel rails; on the other a long, veather-beaten fence, very high, with queer scallops at the top. The Spirit of Investigation was so absorbed in watching a procession of passing bicyclists, that he might never have seen the stained old fence had not the sun. which had begun to sink, shot its rays intermittentlv between its slats, playing a most rhythmical and re- sistless tattoo on the eye- balls of the poor Spirit. As he turned to discover the cause of his annoy- ance, a mortal, passing along the sandy road which stretched toward the east, said to his com- panion, ' ' What ' s that fence for? ' ' That. said the man ; ' ' (), that ' s to keep the girls in that goes to the great school over there. He had never known the .Spirit of Investigation. But the .Spirit did not belie e what the mortal said ; and that instinct which alwaws forced him to tiud out anxlhing he ditl not understand, determined him to find out this also. What tcvr.v the fence for? He i- «j iR The Spirit of Investigation related this to me point bv point, as suggested l v the order of his experience, in a rambling manner, with no attention to coherence or climax. With a change of person only, 1 reproduce it as nearly as possible in his own words, fearing to lose in an improved style some of his many excellent points and naive criticisms. 40 knew of another scliool which h;i(l a fence, and ihal fence was used to sit on; luit then, that was a eiy different kind of a fence. What sort of a school was it an va ? And it was in the effort to answer these C|nestions tliat the Spirit entered upon an in esti 4ation, the residts of which are now foj- the lirst time mack ' jiuhlic. The Sjiirit continued ak)n i; the sandv road that stretclied toward tlie east, and just at ni ihtfall ])asse l into a xilki e that mortals had huilded ; and in e er house were man lights, as il the inhabitants were on the eve of a reat celeliration. Just then some children came 1) . and the Spirit, joining them, incpiired what was the celebration betokened by the brilliantly lighted houses. Vnd the children smiled as they answered : Oh, vou are a stranger here I There is a great schotd over there, and these houses are for some of the children to live in. There is a rule about always keeping their lights I)urning till ten o ' clock; that is wh )u see so many. vSo the .Spirit followed the two children, and soon came to a house larger than the others, and with a piazza like a balcony across the front; and this house, too, was lighted like the rest. [ust then a great barge drew up before the door, and there were many more children inside it. These children all wore a very queer badge, which the Spirit thought, in the dim light, was a skull with an arrow shot through one of its eyes. Then all the children in the barge sent forth a loud shout together, and this is w hat they said : — Mask and ( lill ! Mask and Qiiill 1 Shakespeare, Shakespeare, Shakespeare still! No y it chanced there lived in the house a Doctor, and a little girl wdio loved the Doctor erv much ; and when she heard the deafening shout the little girl mistook it for a crowd of bo s shouting: — Nasty pill! Nasty pill! Take em ! take ' em ! take ' em still ! Vnd her face glowed with indignation as she thought of the little Doctor. But all the other children laughed at her, and said they w oidd put it in the column of children ' s sayings in the legends of the school. H()we er. the little girl felt so badly the - did not do it. lUit the Spirit of Investigation conceals nothing. Then the S]nrit curled himself inside a leaf of a great elm tree. — for he never does his work in the dark, — and as he was dropping into a quiet sleep, he wondered if the children who wore the queer badges ever took any elective course in elocution. The next morning the Spirit awoke late, and as he looked down from his airy perch he saw a great many children passing by, some of them carry- 41 in hcax V lKii; . which . ' mc(l to contain l)ooks. and sonu- wlio (hd not carry so many ItooUs. liut wore a lon 4- hlack i ow n and a Mack cap. As the Spirit slid dow n tVoni the tree and walked on hesick ' the chikhen. he noticed that the faces of those who carried the haL;s looked worried and strained, and at lirst he thon ht thc had keen stnd in - tlie ht)oks too much ; hut he soon discovered that the only cause for their anxiety was the fear that they might not get to cha])el on time. As they passed him. he thought tlu ' hlack gowns looked ery graceful as they floated in the hree .e behind their hurrxing wearers. Rut he afterwards learned that the were not worn for ornament. hut were signs of mourning, hecause the children who wore them were soon to leaye the school forexer. And then he came to t yo great stone posts, and one of them had on it hinges, as if for a gate, hut there was no gate there; and near the posts was a stone house, which looked ery small beside them. Some of the chiklren told the v ' pirit of Inyestigation that beyond the posts lay the great school ' hich he had come to see. Then he thought of w hat the two men had said about the fence and the school, and he was sure now that they had not told the truth, for there was no gate on the hinges, as I haye said. The man w ho lived in the stone house, that looked small beside the posts, could not then be a gate-keeper, and the Spirit set about to find out his occupation. Just then a glossy rabbit peeped out from behind a neighboring tree. Ah, thought the Spirit, he keeps rabbits. But a little short-tailed, straight-haired dog, that had been demurely following his mistress, saw the little rabbit, and in spite of her protestations drove him far up the hill and into the wood. So the Spirit turned to follow the children again ; but they had walked very fust, and he saw no more of them. As he looked about, however, for 1 some sign of the direction thev had taken, he saw a great many curious yellow papers scattered on the ground; and he 42 thuu ht i)rih;ips llic chiUliL ' n had dioppLHl ihcm to maik the vav for stfaii- gers. for the path a very intricate. So lie set out to follow these iiicles; but as he passed on they became ever more abundant, until there were so many he could uexer have found a va - throutrh them had not a favorable breeze sprung- u]) and scattered them from his path. As he went on, be saw on one side a place which had a wire fence al)out it, and inside a rew a sjreat many tpieer flowers and e en w eeds, all arran ed with the most careless effect imaii;inable. . nd a strange emotion arose in the heart of the Spirit as he looked on what he thouji ht the surrounding tokens of some old family estate, still fostered and cherished bv some lover of the okl-fashioned tiuaintness of the spot. And the Spirit o( Investiga- tion lo ed all that was old (though ju ople sometimes thought he cared onl for what was new), and he hununed sofllv to himself, for he was c|uite a pt)et w ithal : — O sweet, sad nook with tnem ' fies fraught, Where heartsease springs and violets blow, And clematis winds, by fair hands taught In the days of long ago. There lilacs bend their purple bloom, And larkspur Just then one of the wicked children, oxerhearing his strain, peeyjed over the Spirit ' s shoulder, and said: ' ' .So vou like our Botanical Gardens.- ' And the Spirit sadly turnetl awa , and the song was never finished. A little farther on, as he emerged from a thick evergreen shrubberv, there met his view a scene most thoroughly domestic : a large, old-fashioned barn, with its doors open, disclosed mows w ell filled with hav. while in front were ranged carts antl ehicles of manv sorts, most of them painted a beautiful blue, which the children told him was the chosen color of the great school. He afterwards found, however, that there was some dispute whether the two were of the same shade. At first the vSpirit supposed that the barn and the implements about it betokenetl an agricultural department connected with the school. He later discovered that their onl i)urpose was the culti ation of an aesthetic sense in the children. As he continued along the path, still guided b - the peculiar yellow jjapers which had so nearlv checked his progress at the beginning of his journev, a scene of great beauty opened before him. About him stretched a grass field, bright with daisies and buttercups ; while on the right a tjuick slope was crowned by a large brick edifice, built in the French Renaissance style of architecture. Here lived man of the children who belonged to the great school; but the Spirit of ln estigation had heard that the building, beautiful though it was on the outside, was full of long, narrow j assages which were verv dark, and he, being a lover of the light, as 1 ha e said, entered not therein. 43 Hut llic childi ' cn sax it is xciy pk ' asaiil there, except that the MnalU ' i ' ones among them, who cannot reach to t ' eel the raised nnnihers on the doors, sometimes liavc reat ditlicuhx in linchnL; ' the room the wish.

It is expected, theretore. that this one inconvenience vill soon he remoxcd. . va on llu ' lelt ol the Spirit, hevond the daisv-hedecked field. la a beautiful lake, which sparkled pleasantK ' in the morning sun ; while from the alders antl willows aromul its margin came the clear note of the rohin, sounding against the ceaseless twitter of hluehirds and countless sparrows. Nearer at hand, from beneath a spreading bush, sounded e er now and then the industrious scratching of the chewink ; from the path a saucv grev squirrel looked up at him with audacious little winks, now and then casting side glances at his mate, who was peeping around a neighl oring tree. Over the vSpirit ' s head the trees rustled quietly, and lulled the vSpirit into a re ery, in which he thought he saw a group of Indians encamped on the grass, and John ICliot was there in the midst of them. Thev were teaching the Spiiit the name of the beautiful land, and it was j -i: ■m- - -0-  • 0- L - E d :t: Y, Welles - ley, Then the Indians rose together and sang a song the prophet had taught them. .Vnd the Spirit thought their voices were verv harsh indeed. The loud, dis- cordant sounds roused him from his reverv, and he found himself near a huge something which he at first mistook for a great organ ; but as he rubbed his eyes open, he found it was onlv the place where the children of the great school come to sing, and plav on all kinds of instruments. But as the S]: irit hastened awa he came suddenh upon a beautiful little lakelet, in which were reflected all the trees on the banks around. It was a charming scene, and the Spirit gazed in rapt admiration, till his eve chanced to fall on a certain tree at one end of the little lakelet. Then all the jov went nit ot his face, for the tree was dead and the few nasturtium ines that had sought to support their feeble length upon it were alreadx drop- ping their yellow leaves. So he asked one of tlu ' childien who chanced to pass, what was the meaning of the dead tree in the midst of so much life and verdure. .Vnd the child answered him thus : ■• Know. () thou .Spirit of Investigation, there (juce dwelt among us man childien. who are no longer here, and they were called the children of ' 94. It was their hands that 44 cared for and (ciuU ' d yonder vitherin ;- tree, and for a time it Hourislied and the nasturtiums twined loxin K about it. lint when the chihh-en of ' oj were ahout to lea e the 4reat seliool the feh erv sad indeech So lhe put on, eaeh one, her hhiek mourning; rohes w ith her black cap. and tlies ' went out and stood around the tree tlie had plantt-d ; and some of them couUl not restrain their tears. Then the - hade farewi ' ll to their heh) ed tiee and went tlieir a ; hut e er since that (hi the tiee lias heen seen to droop more and more, till it is as nou see it now. •• Ihit win did it die.

I ut, said the child, noting- the un- wonted sadness that had seized the .Sj:)irit at this painful tale. •• come here and 1 will show you a more cheerful si hl. So she led the wa - through the trees to the edge of a 4rass lawn w here a line onui - tree towered above them, spreading- its thick, glossy lea es to the sun. •• This is the tree that the children of ' 9:; planted, said she. Vnd the Spirit of Investigation looked upon it with pleasure undisguised ; and it w as indeed a pleasant sight, for the whole tree seemed teeming with life and vigor. •• .Vnd what did the children of ' 9:; do for their tree that it has grown thus large and strong, while yonder tree has wilted and died.- asked the Spirit. Oh I said the child, the children of ' 9 were wise in their da ' and generation, anil thev knew that ashes was a most valuable food for plants ; so while onder tree was being watered b ' the salt tears of its admirers, the children of ' 9 hastened hack and forth and collected a great manv compositions the had written, and thev bmnied them in a great iron kettle. And when thev were all l)nrned, the chil dren took the ashes and scattered them about the roots of their tree, making for it a rich, deep soil. The children of ' 9 ,, when thev heard of this, curled their lips scornfullv, and said the tree would nevei live in so drv a soil. But the children of ' 9 did not mind what lhe said, for the next spring the tree bore its Hrst fruit ; and all the children had a taste of the first fruit, so that the - felt more than paid for all the taunts the had endured. As he stood b - the tree the .Spirit looked about him. ()ff to tlie right Avei ' e several houses where, the little girl saitl, some of the children li ed ; and another huilding filled with pictures, whei ' e some of the children learned to ]5aint with their little paint l)oxes; but the children did not paint all the pictures there, so one of them told the S])irit. Ihit e en as the child was relating all this to the Spiiit. his eves hail been wandering to another building which stood on a hill apart from the others. This was the irreat school he had come to see. but he realized he 45 had gained as vet oiih a ver - narrow view of the sul)ji ' et of his imesti- gations. So he hastened on aeross the Ljreen lield till he came to some wooden stairs, and lt these tlu ' Spii ' it ol In estiLi ' ation found ;ni easy entranee into the ireat school; for the stairs were just lilted to his small stature, whereas he noticed that the were not. on this account, the less convenient for the childien. who were much tallei ' than he; for the smaller ones, hv taking two steps at a time, and tlu ' laiger ones three, found them ]:)erfectlv adjusted to their needs. The Spirit had noticed man - times that the childien alwa s went ahout in twos, and as he followed them he discovered that this w;is due not only to the social nature so characteristic of childhood, hut to another and more practical cause; for he observed it was onlv hv using their comhinetl force that the children were able to move the great door which led into the school. As the door swung together behind two of them, the Spirit slipped inside. lie found that he had entered a luxuriously carpeted hall. Far down on his right he beheld a short, descending flight of stairs. There were manv children sitting on the steps, but the Spirit was verv small, and soon suc- ceeded in threading his wav through the group, all of whom were busily absorbed in reading great books. ( )n reaching the floor below . the S]:)irit found himself surromuled bv a most magniflcent collection of books. Shelves reaching from floor to ceiling were filled to overflowing; cpieer little winding stairs, which served to leach the upper shelves, creaked ominouslv as the children passed up and down. Hut what most attracted the Spirit ' s attention were the gilded wire cages he found set along the floor at intervals. The purpose of these he was at first at some loss to explain, but on a careful examination he concluded the had been placed there to protect the children ' s dresses from the dust which found its wav l)eneath them, and was thus beyond the reach of the conscientious child whose duty it was to sweep this room. hen the Spirit flnalK ' made his va ' out again into the open hall he came upon a smaller room, where, the children told him, could be found all sorts of books for Bible study, college magazines, and other serious reading. P)Ut he pa ssed on (inickh to something that seemed to have ri eted his attention. It proxed to be a large and beautiful room, adorned on every side with statues and j ictures, its walls emblazoned with pure gold, shaming the svmlight that fell upon them. vScattered about w ere luxurious couches, and richest dra] )eries hung at the windows. The s])lendor of it all tempted him on. l ut the children, when the perceived it. cried out in great terror, for no one might enter there save those whose work it was to care for the children of the great school. But the Spirit minded them not, and onlv went straight on. And since that time, the children sa . he may 46 often l)c foiiiHl there of an eveninj] , and percliance you may find manv of those who h;ivc the care of the chihhvn j athered there to partake with him of most excellent chocolate ami wal ' cis. .Vs the Spirit passed thron h the lon hall he came upon a scene of the most exquisite beauty. At what seemed the centre of the reat buildin were yrow ini4-. in almost tropical luxuiiaiicc. all kinds of palms and hcautit ' ul ferns, while from above was shed the softest aiul brij htest li ht imaj inable. lie asked one ol ' the children it ' any noted person were buried there; the child shook her head and said it was. on the contrar . the ver - centre of life. . s the Spirit -azed with admiration on the waving pahns, the child (she was t)ne of those who wore the black ijowns) remarked sadlv as she turned away. When I first came to the school I thought them er pretty too. for then the palms were very tall, but now the are scarce higher than m own head. ' ' As the S])irit of Investigation passed through the man halls and up and down the w ide staircases he saw a great many beautiful pictures, and many statues too. And he asked the names of the statues, but the children could give him no answer, but that one which stood in a corner near the palm trees was called Ruth and Naomi. For the most part the children hurried by the beautiful pictures about them, but a few he saw stand long before some of them, as if unable to satisfy with one glance their souls ' longing. Yet, as one of the children said, that was not to be wondered at, for they were members of a class in aesthetics. And the Spirit saw that day many new- and curious things, for the children had just returned from a acation ; they do not sew at the great school. As he wandered over the great building he saw many other things, curious indeed , but not new ; beautiful and rare stones, and many animals, the like of which do not exist upon the earth. But ever and anon he was startled by the clanging of many bells, sometimes afar off, reverberating from wall to wall, sometimes so near, he seemed for the moment to lose every faculty of speech or motion. And he asked one of the children about them, and the little girl said she knew a poem about the bells, for with all their harshness the children loved them. .Vnd here is the poem the child taught to the vSpirit, as he repeated it to me : — Those Wellesley bells, those Wellesley bells, How many a tale their music tells Of six o ' clock, and that dread hour When first we feel their rousing power. The breakfast bell comes next, and soon That joyous gong which welcomes noon. The bell for study hour foi ' etells A host of lesser Wellesley bells. 47 And so ' twill be when we are dead; Those warning bells will ring to bed The generation next which dwells Under your power, ve Welleslcy bells. Vftci the Spirit h;i(l heard thi- chihl ' s ])()c ' ni hr loo liked tlic hells for the sake of all the had done and all the wouUl do tor tiie rising generations. When the da was done the .Spirit was c pleased. lOr it seemed to him he had st ' cn that da ' ever thing that eonld he of use or ]:)leasnre or protit to the ehildren. and if he missed an - thing lie fonntl it later in the eata — cloak room. And ha ing accomjilished his pm pose and seen the great school, the Spirit of Investigation woidd have gone his wav again. l)nt the children gathered aliont him and said that he shoidd never again leave them. And those who ha ■e the care of the chil- dren Nvere pleased that they shoidd lind so harmless a com- panion, and withal evervone 1 fonnd him so nsefiil and so liard to relinquish that he was then and there adopted as one of the s])irits of the institution — for it has many, and not one, as some seem to suppose. And since he came they have huilt a temple in his honor, — not beautiful nor garnished without. Init well fitted within ; and there shall gather in the ears that come all those who love the .Spirit of Investigation, and the innermost essence of all things shall declare itseli to them. But one thing the Spirit has never found out and wonders still. — why the men on the sandv road spoke as they did of the weather-beaten fence with the tpieer scallops.

It will prol)al)ly not be before the candidate reaches Wellesley station for the first time. althou_o;h the candidate must be prepared to have preliminary examinations at any time after she starts from hei home. The examination time usually ends at the close of the Freshman year, although a candidate who is especially youthful in appearance is liable to be given unexpected examinations even to the close of the Senior year. The place is to be appointed according to the wishes of the instructor, without regard to the feelings of the candidate. During the first busy days it has generally been found most convenient to gi e the examinations in the General Oflice and at the First Floor Centre. Later in the vear, the corridors, the dining room, and even private rooms are used. Durino- warm weatlier instructors occasionally have open-air appointments. For the benefit of candidates who have not been trained in preparatorv schools especially adapted to Wellesley, the following sample examination paper is submitted : — EXAMIXATIOX.

RIGHT OF THE STUDENT TO CERTIFY TO HER OWN GOOD QUALITIES. .Vs a substitute tOr the examinations mentioned on another page, the student ma offer certitieates of sehohirsliip, health, and moral eharaeter. Whichever course he jnirsuetl. it is customary for the student to offer for consideration additional erltal ceitillcates as to her (jualillcations. Such cei ' titications are generally considered as supplementary to those on moral character. In offering these certificates students will observe the following reguhitions : — (i) Application for attention to her claims must be made by the student from the preparatory school, for ])roper effect, not later than the first week of her stay in Wellesley. before she is too well known. The dinner table is recommended as an a]:)propriate place for entering all applications. (2) The application should always be accompanied by full information with regard to Our High School and its courses of study. At this juncture the Wellesley Sophomore provides a far-away expression, which betokens her growing interest, and this should be gratified by further details as to our class. its motto and colors. (3) If the first attempt or attempts prove successful, the process of certification shoidd be continued for three months, or until Jaiuiarv of the first year. (4) All certifications shoidd be made to show distinctly that ever - position of honor in the gift of om class has been tilled by the student. Whenever an ' variation has been made in the usual order, if, for instance, the student has been president of the debating club and orator of her class, in place of the more legular .Senior president and aledictorian, a special apology should be offered for acceptance or refusal. Salutatorians and vice presidents are sometimes admitted. (t) Special ad ancement along particular lines, as politics, classic lore, art, Greek letters, or the drama, should be distinctlx brought out by the student; such information is absolutely essential for the future adjustment of society. (6) Any student whose certification is deficient on Se])leniber ioth of the year following her entrance to college, in more than two of the preliminary subjects (mentioned vmder 4), or in more than three of the finals (mentioned under ), may be refused admission. In an case students are received on probation only, and on satisfactoril - establishing the statements of their certificates are received to full membership. 54 ?|t)MI55I0(N[ TO flDV NCEl) gTONl ING.

Course I. ( Rec[uired of all students) : Pro])a ' deutic to Courses II. and 111. At twenty minutes past eight students must show a remarkahle celerity in reaching the Chapel before the doors are closed. This course has five appointments per week. Course II. (Elective) : Open to those students who ha e successfully completed Course I. This course requires a sufficient amount of physical strength to oppose the energy of those wdio are trying to close the doors, combined with enough strength of w ' ill to force a w ay through a narrow aisle, crow ' ded with fellow- students, to the advanced position desired. Course III. Open to students who have completed Courses 1. and 11. The aim of this course is to secure the first place in the outgoing j ro- cession at the close of Chapel services. The endeavor has been made to render the course comparatixelv easy, since the courses preceding it are exceedinglv diflicult. The onlv obstacle to perfect success is the fact that all students are equally eager to obtain the most athanced standing in this course. All that is necessarv is to take the end seat in the row assigned to the student, and persistentlv and firmlv to refuse to mo e in toward the center, notwithstanding anv criticism that ma he passed. lla ing suc- ceeded so far, it is an easy matter to secure advance standing in tlie course by stepping into the aisle as soon as tlie organ begins to l)lay. This course has been so successful in the past that we can heartily reconnnend it to all students. ( h ) In the Elevatioii of the Masses. The principal reciuirement for advanced standing in this course is a faculty for total abstraction. Students should ha e tlie power of concen- trating their attention upon the object directly in front of them, whatever it may be (notices on the elevator bulletin board being especially recommended Courses I., II., and III. arc .supplciiientcd by lectures from time to time throuj;hout the year.

This course consists in holding one ' s position on the staircase opposite the Chapel on Sundav niornin s after church. vSince there is but one appoint- ment a week, the course heretofore has been overcrowded, and it has become necessarv to limit the number of stu- dents electing it. Students are advised, therefore, to consult the schedule com- mittee as promptly as possible. Stu- dents takin 2; this course should be incapable of losing their temper, as they are obliged to withstand a multitude of large sleeves and wi(le-l)rimmed hats, belonging to inconsiderate persons who persist in passing up the stair- case, to the great distui ' bance of those earnestly engaged in the work of the course. {d) In the Post Office: a course in Boxing. Students are advised not to try for advanced standing in this course unless they have unusually y I - ' ' ' good certificates in regard to their ' ' ::;S-- ' — health and character, as strength and mnnite patience are absolute- ly recjuired. At least thirty minutes before the hour appointed for the boxing, the student must seek out a position in the Post Othce where she will inconvenience as manv people as possil:)le, and, fixing her eyes on the glass case where the boxers ai-e kept (to pre- serve them for future generations), must await the fidl Lct-ter box, which delights the heart of the as]Dirant, and makes the blood dance in her veins. Throughout the entire performance she must remain immovable, allowing no exclamation of impatience or disgust to pass her lips when she is jostled or crowded by people w ho desire mereh to come and go. Any one having completed this course mav feel well ecjuipped for whatever contests later life may present. 56 gPECmL glUDENTS. The presence of Special stiulents is eagerly desired and encouracred. In fact, those who are not specially stndents arc earnestly advised not to enter their names upon the college register. All courses in the curriculum are open to them, and especial attention is paid them by the teachers. It is advised that they pursue some one line of work with great thoroughness. Special Grinds are often very successful, and are most cordially welcomed by instructors. It is often advantageous to continue this work all four years, for though it renders most of the degrees unattainable, certificates of work accomplished will be cheerfully granted. Tnusual health must be guaran- teed before entering this course. Special Bores and Special Grumblers have sometimes been admitted, and worked with great satisfaction to themselves. These courses are often combined with ad antage. Special Geniuses in any line will find ample opportunities for the exer- cise of their intellects. They may be sure of finding a great many pleasant companions in all the courses. For the first two years special accommodations will lie provided for Special Students. There was a Special student bright, A young but brilliant satellite, Who often heard, with rapt delight, A little bird which sang by night. The other students laughed with glee. But she, alas! no joke could see. Until they gayly did decree Her little bird a frog must be. t-ikE 1 I ' ' i ' i - J -M. xnumniioHB, tempore et mores. The followins suggestions, while of alue to all students, are intended especially for the guidance of that small but ambitious band who come each spring to take their preliminary examinations. It is belieyed that a careful study of the following rules will sa ■c this too-long neglected class of stu- dents from many of the hardships their excessive modesty has hitherto brought upon them. 1. Pay no attention to the clamorous and authoritative This way for the College, which salutes your ear as you alight from the train, A quiet walk in the mellow Jvme sunshine will add much to the vividness of your first impressions of Wellesley. upon which the success of your Freshman work in English will so largely depend, 2. Inquire of some policeman in the village for direction to the College, Follow his directions carefully and m)u cannot miss the way. Proceed till you come to a sign, No One is Allowed to Enter these Grounds on Sun- day; turning in there, follow the path until vovx come to a flight of steps, being careful not to mistake Stone Hall for College Hall, Note, however, (i) The sign has lately been removed. (2) Stone Hall is not built of stone, and thus closely resembles the description given vou of College Hall. Do not, however, mistake it for that building. 3. On reaching College Hall, pass around to the north door and ring the bell. vSend your card to the President, and request that she conduct you to the room appointed for your examination. Beware at all times of seek- ing information from any but authoritati e source s. 4. Do not provide yourself with paper, but haughtily inform the person in charge that you had supposed Wellesley College furnished paper for her own examinations. This will show judgment and independence. 5. You will now be under the necessity of visiting the bookstore. Never feel any hesitation in asking any one you meet to escort you there and back 58 to the P. L. R. The L ' ollci e requires an houi ' s daily exercise from each student. 6. Always take the elevator in going to an examination on any floor other than the first. ()ther vise von might arrive on time, thus calling atten- tion to yourself, wliich is at all times undesii ' able. 7. Make a hasty sur ey of the (questions. Should there chance to be any among them which you are prepared to answer with facts, note them briefl} ' . vSuch answers are imique. and are sometimes accepted, liut are always lacking in interest and originality. 8. In general, therefore, no such (juestions aj:)pearing, write at consider- able length on some subject of your own selection, taking care only that it be not too unmistakably suggested by an thing in the question. The train- ing thus gained is exceedingly -aluable in dexeloping the important powers of imagination and inyention, yhile you ill at the same time furnish the instructor with a varied and helpful course of reading. 9. Be carefid to write your name on the first sheet onl . In assorting the papers the eye of the instructor will thus ])ecome trained to distinguish minute differences of chirographv, — a practice which ma prove invaluable to her. 10. Be very careful not to strain the mind too continuously. Sharpen 3 ' our pencil frequently throughout the hour. This distracts the attention of other students, and is belieyed to be a powerful factor in the prevention of nervous diseases arising from too great concentration. 11. Always place on the floor all pencil shavings, waste paper, etc. This provides work for the unemployed domestic girl, and tends to stimulate in her a genuine sympathy with all workers. 12. Above all. be sure that vour mind is completely vacant after each examination ; carefully dislodge any particles of knowledge that may still persist. This principle of relaxation has long been kno vn and practiced in some departments of the College; its importance cannot be overestimated. XoTE. — To the effect that the foregoing recommendation be the better carried out. it is advised that the student get her skates sharpened at the approach of the examination season. This, however, is useless in June. 59 Degrees. Till-: followins degrees are conferred upon members of the College with the consent of the Trustees. 1. IJ.A., a degree of Brain Activity. The whole college course is es- pecially adapted to aid the student in acquiring this. As the degree retjuired is yerv small, it is usually obtained. 2. P).M. — The College offers great inducements to the attaining of a degree of Brawny ?kluscle. These are a fully ec[uipped gymnasium and well-organized out-of-door sports. .Vn hour a day for four years is reserved for the work rec|uired to obtaint his degree. It is to be regretted that so few students take honors in this course. 3. M.. . — Onh- those having taken the degree of B.A. can hope to attain any degree of Mental Acuteness. To encourage the student, the poorest attempts w ill be crowned with a Degree of Worry early in the course. Besides these usual degrees, there are others offered for especial courses. 180° in posture is sometimes attained by a thorough course in gymnastics ; while if this be supplemented by a full course in elocution, the student ma ' attain nearly 360° in the same subject, with a good Degree of Grace. The ninnerous societies offer especial attractions for ol)taining a Degree of Popularity early in the course. This is the oidy degree conferred by the students. The full Degree of Conceit has been w ithdraw n since the Class of 1S94 graduated. 60 in out fee old, yE ( Ew (Curriculum, As in old time in divers places vhen that a custom or law became obso- lete, ye people met together for to consider ye cause thereof and how that it might be remedied; so did ye Class of ' 9:;, after such days as they were Sophomores, join together to see if that they might be able to assume ve New Curriculum which had been given to their sister ' 96, and whereby henceforth she was to regulate her college course. And as it ever fareth with those who go straightway to accomplish a thing, so did it faro even with ye Class of ' 9 .

In health and prosperity long may it live, and mav it wax even to a ripe old age, like as did its ancestor, ye Old Ciu ' riculum. - « - S-g - ( RSDUOTE Instruction. Graduates of Welleslev and other female institutions of equal rank may pursue at the College any course in which it is possible to obtain a sitting, provided only they bring with them the proofs of former sittings. Thev are held in great respect by the younger members of the community, and are given the kindest personal attention by the Faculty. They are amenable to such terms of the usual contract as may be ascribed for them by the photographic council. If the work is done m non-residence, the finished proofs will not he delivered earlier than tw o years after the sitting. Only graduates of Welleslev mav take the entire work in studios other than the main one, ])ut in that case they must employ branch studios. It is well for them to order all finished proofs at one time, though two years may be spent in sittings. 62 KoURSES OF... Instruct ion. The DEat) LaNGu GEs, WORN OUT BY CONSTHNT USE.

IJEBREW f ' tlhiley June 9V Oh ACL cur t cf Cfuel neo- As a Legexda reporter was passing Music Hall, her attention was at- tracted by a faint odor of smoke. Proceeding in the direction whence the odor arose, the reporter soon came npon a scene unjiaiallcled in history or literature. In a sequestered nook stood a little old man, whose name, as the reporter afterwards learned, was Mr. IIel)rcw. His face was small and wizened; his hair was in disorder; his eves were wild. Floating from his hat and from his garments were long strips of paper with strange hiero- glyphics upon them. The reporter could see only a part of the English letters which headed the sheets of paper, aminations. June, i89_).. ' As the reporter watched, the old man suddenly opened a long wooden box that was on the ground, stepped in, and closed the co er. Click I The 66 lock had spnino-. The reporter now ran forward, and shook the h)ck, en- deavorinjr to release the old man from his suffocating prison ; but in vain ! While she was trvinor to force the lock, she heard a crackling noise behind Iier. She turned about and discovered that she was standing on a fuse. She sprang aside, extinguished a hre smouldering on her skirt, and then turned to set her foot on the creeping sparks. Too late I Thev had al- ready reached the liox containing the old man, and in a moment all was over. As the body of the deceased was exceptionally dry it was consumed quickly. The long strips of paper, however, were found unharmed among the ashes. It seems that theiv was something in the nature of the paper that rendered it indestructible. The result of the investigation of the sad case, made bv the indefatigable Legexda reporter, is the revelation of the fact that My. Hebrew had been in affluent circumstances, but that of late years he had fallen into disfavor; had lost not only his wealth, but also his friends. Such disheartening events, coml)ined w ith his own barren nature, led him to seek relief in death, the only relief possible. The Legexda reporter gathered the ashes of the deceased with the greatest care and reverence. They are to he interred at midnight, w ith ap- propriate ceremonies, under the slab upon which rests the model of Jeru- salem, Fourth Floor Centre, College Hall. The following verses are to be carved upon the slab : — Stranger, in this neglected spot is laid A man of pedigree, though little known. His few chance friends no progress with him made, And left him soon without a tear or groan. Full many a maid with merry heart and eye Refused to pass him in her daily course. Full many a mantis born, like him, to die A victim to election ' s dreadful force. 67 ( ERMSN. IMaxv years ago lived there then, in the midst of a great forest of know- evervthing trees, a Httle maiden. In this forest, moreover, lived there also an animal of the genus Examinationis Bugbearius. Feared very much the little maiden this great growling monster; and from him, all the times that she was aMe. ran she awav. Once as walked she among the trees, forth came he to her and said. Where go vou. little maiden mine? More- over, in fact, since she his language knew not, to talk to him very diflicult was, but she said, To a German, Examinationis, go L And what expect vou there, mine little maidchen r To tanzen und singen there, in sooth, expect L Alav I have the favor of accompanying you, little maid ? ' With the greatest of pleasure, said she. Then off to a big square cave led her, this bad Bugbearius, and her shut therein. But instead of dancing und singing put he to her many awful c[uestions, which forthwith to answer was she obliged before again she could go out. Give me, said he, a proverb. Know I none but only, ' Work is worse than the pestilence, ' said she. and to ciy began. Oh dear, oh dear, I wish I were dead I she cried; but growled he thereupon at her. and more and more frightened her. At last, when found he that she to answer any more questions liad not lieen able, let he her go away ; and ran she, and ran she, and ran she awav off into another country, where no Examinationis there was. When at last felt she safe, threw she herself upon a soft and pleas- ant mossbank, und sighed. ' ' If that is what people a German call, no more I of them desire. Therefore all the rest of her days lived happily the little maiden, and heard she of the Examinationis Bugbearius never again. 68 T OMSNCE LaNGUOGES.

It is tlic aim of this course to so weave a complete knowledge of rhetor- ical principles into the very heart of the student, that they may be at her disposal through her whole college course. Each student is expected to contribute one careful paper embodying her first impressions of Wellesley. These papers are of great value to send as testimonials to young women contemplating a college course. The work of the course is a training in description, narration, and criti- cism. Instruction in the minor points of paragraphing, capitalization, and punctuation is found unnecessary, having been thoroughly mastered in preparatorv schools. The following paper was written after only two weeks ' instruction : — Main building. Wellesley college. Oct 3. 1S94. My Dearest Sister Cynthy ; I promised to write you all about Wellesley, but where shall I begin to tell you about this place, more vv onderful than tongue or pen can tell. I will begin where all of us begin our College career — i. e. at the Chapel. When I first saw the girls surging and pressing in at the Chapel door, I made up mv mind that there must be something very attractive inside. Thev sav that sometime there will be a new Chapel with doors as wide again, so as to avoid the ruffling of temper and of dresses. The first thing that attracted my attention in Chapel was the Seniors. They wear long black Mother Hubbard cloaks and the queerest stiffest arrangement on their heads. They call them caps, but its a missnoma for they are really hats flattened out with a square black board and tassel. I asked mv roommate if she supposed that they were in mourning for any- body or anything or wdiether they were preparing to enter the Holy Orders 72 but she did not know and hadn ' t dared to ask. The Faculty sit on the Freshman side in the grallcry so that their learninor may have the highest possible relief one of the sojjhoniores told me. but 1 don ' t belieye a word of it. When I hrst went to Chapel I expected to forget for a little my wretched homesickness, but neither the opening hvnni. • ' Work for the nis ht is coming nor the second I ' m but a stranger here Heaven is mv home tended to dissipate the lump in n throat. Hut the thing that makes me most homesick is not Chapel, it is vShady, the feline member of the Insti- tution. I never see him without a rush of blood to the heart and of tears to the eves for he does look so much like our tlear old Cinders. He is every- where — during dinner he patrols the dining room. I was somewhat shocked to see him allowed such free use of the library, l ut they say that he is very busy during the year getting out the Welleslev Catalogue and that his evenings are largely spent in holding Ratiiication meetings in the Facvdty parlor. I must not forget to tell you about the strange statues strewn up and down these classic halls. In the Browning Room there is a statue called the Reading Girl, but she looks to me more as if she were placed there as a warning to all students who attempt to dress after the ten minute bell. W ill you l)elieye me when I tell you what C Hisin Ned said the night he came out from Harvard? He didn ' t seem a bit shocked, but just chucked her under the chin, saying; •• Good morning. Have you used Pear ' s soap ? The Backwoodsman is the is the most respectable honest looking statue here, he is properly clothed and in his right mind and vet the girls laugh and wonder whether he employed a custom tavlor and whether his shoes (foot-wear the girls say) are hand-sewed. I can understand their fun about his shoes for they do look ery much like the worsted slippers the girls wear here. There is also a very interesting statue at the first door centre in the shadow of the staircase. It was quite a puzzle to me. until one of the girls explained it. It represents Xydia protecting a shipwrecked and half drowned girl from the pirates who are in hot pursuit. 1 must take a course in History of Art, so as not to be ignorant about the classic masterpieces. I have not given you much more than cjuarter of my impressions, but the ten o ' clock bell rang five minutes ago so I must close. FrcMB A. X. Y. 73 II. Exposition wn CKiricisM.

The Annual Junior Temperance DelKite is believed to furnish other clas.ses W ' ith sufficient training in this line. The following piece of argumentation will show the great value of the course in aiding the student to form clear and well-founded opinions on burning questions of the dav. SHOULti THE TREE NOW CLaiMEt) BY THE CLfISS OF ' 95 aS ITS CLaSS TREE, BE HLLOWEt) TO REMAIN ITS EMBLEM? Trees have been known from the very earliest history. Indeed, they had grown to gigantic size, and their habits were carefully studied, before the step of man e ' er echoed through the silent forests, for man as yet was not.t The home of the first man was in a forest, where was a good sample of every kind of tree ; and imagination paints a most attractive scene of If two unemployed Seniors can l)e found, much time will be saved Verse produced in this way has been known to receive such favorable comments as easy, graceful in form, coherent, good. t See Le Comtes ' Geology, page 55. 74 the first coujile sportii 2 l eneatli the sliade of a tall sycamore tree, while the graceful palm bends its stately head to whisper secrets to the apple tree next it, and polar hears frisk up and down the trunks of the sturdy nia];)les 3 ' onder. At the time of the flood, doubtless, flne sawed planks came from the syc- amore and maple for the ark. and their companions waved their giant arms in fond farew ell as the ark sailed aw a ; and the spattering of the ever- increasing, relentless water caused bv such motion, ere the trees were buried from sight ' neath the raging gulf, might be likened to tears, proving them to be trees of a sympathetic nature. vSo in all history these trees have had their share ; and had they but recorded it. we sh(ndd have had one more history reference liook to struggle for in the library. Ah, Of all sad words of tongue or pen, The saddest are these, ' It might have been ! ' f Having thus shown that the sycamore-maple is a tree of noble pedigree, let us consider the particular tree in question. On the extreme eastern bor- der of the campus of Wellesley College, about halfway between the ave- nue and the board walk leading from the Alain Building to Stone Hall, stands a tree planted with all the skill of the one hundred and twentv-five girls, more or less, known, in May, 1S93, as Sophomores. With all their sensations and with all their perceptions they perceived it was a goodly tree, and they thouo;ht it was of the order Plantancete. genus Platinus Occiden- talis. But, alas ! their occipital lobes and the gardener deceived them, and the botanical department, by focalizing upon it the searching light of its combined faculties, discovered that it was but a Pseudo Platinus I The question before us is, then, shall this Pseudo Platinus remain ' 9 ' s emblem ? An emblem is ' -an object whose predominant quality symbolizes some- thing else. I In the first place, then, we believe that the present tree should remain, because we believe it fulfills its duty as an emblem, for its predominant qualities do symbolize something else. Surely, the length of its trunk ma - fitly symbolize the Soangetaha. There may be other resemblances, also, between the two, but we will not press the comparison further. To others, its general slenderness may suggest the chronic state of ' 95 ' s purse. The class treasurer of any year will cheerfully furnish proofs for this point. Lastly, the sigh of the wind through its mighty crown of leaves is but an echo of the low dirg-es once suno- on ' aban ' s bank. Thus we have shown No exact reference for this point can be given, liut to ])rove th:it it might have been so, read Swiss Family Robinson. t See any volume of Whittier, page 421. I Century Dictionary. that our svcamore-maple is a fittinjj eniblcui for the Chiss of ' 9 because its predominant qualities svmboHze soniethins else. Next, we think we should keep this tree because ' 94 thouti ht we had better. This she announced to the world as her final decision after delib- erate consideration by sayiu - that • ' (.j is sick o ' more trees. In proof of this, anv member of ' 94 will tell vou that she has heard them say it hun- dreds of times, which is further pro ed by the fact that it may be found in the ' 94 Legexda. Thirdly, the Pseudo Platinus has an adyantat e in name oyer the Plat- inns Occidentalis ; an adyanta i;e which should make it dear to eyery loyal ' 9 — for has it not more sweet P ' s. ' ' It may be objected that it is unconstitutional to keep this tree, since our class annals record a different choice, and it would be easier to change the tree than change the constitution. But ye hold that it is not unconsti- tutional to retain the present tree, on the following grounds ; it is known to haye been whispered about the College that ' 9 always gets what it wants,, and wants a good deal, — a whisper of which the authorities haye heartily approyed.t Now, if reference be made to the afore-mentioned annals, it y ] be found that the class yoted to haye as its emblem the sycamoi e tree ; and this she has ! But. if she has been bright enough to get not only a sycamore, but a maple besides, all in one, let no cry from the en ious classes who cannot eyen keep their own trees aliye, trouble our yaliant spirits. One more argument I haye to present. This tree was planted for ' 95 ' s benefit only. Between the Platinus Occidentalis and Pseudo Platinus there is but a slight difference in the shape of the leaf, and one shape is just as good form as the other; moreoyer, we had just as leaf haye one shape as the other. So we are satisfied with the tree, and it would bore us horribly to change it. What I change the tree that has grown up with us, — beneath whose spreading arms we haye had so many happy hours after our Junior teas, in whose shade so many of us haye dreamed loye ' s long dreams I Away the thought, base traitor I It must, it shall be right to keep our tree. Eyery loyal ' 9 will join hands about thee, will scream herself hoarse in calling thy praises, will protect thee to her heart ' s last beat : Haying thus proyed on grounds of Century Dictionary, friendship, econ- omy, and emotion that the present tree should remain ' 95 ' s emblem, we beg leaye to say that we haye concluded that the tree now claimed by the Class- of ' 95 as its class tree, should be allowed to remain its emblem.

This course has coninionl hecn chisscd under the head of domesiic work, and is now for the lirst time put on a prf)per footin j with other I ' n hsli courses. Its aim is to develo):) in the student tlie power of raj id and wise selection. For this purpose students electing the course are re- quired to extract all important items from a mornin ; paper hetween two successive strokes of the Chapel bell. Selected daih ' themes are then ritten on the library bidletin board. Graduates of this com se are eligible as reporters or editors on the staff of the Jycz ' cxc of 7 c ' Z ' ezvs. V. Debatixc; Course. That this course be given, it is necessary that it be elected bv at least four students, as the instructor cannot be expected to act as second for either side. VI. Daily Themes. This course allows a verv wide scope for literary work. There is no subject which may not be treated; on the contrary no subject is often treated with great success. The following will serve to give some idea of the character and quality of the work expected : — SNE) THE COCK CREW. •• L-e-v- ' Elleslev ! It sounded faintly on my sleepy ears ' Elles- ley ! And I dreamed that the red rose was warring the white, and bantls of gypsies with dancing steps urged on the fray. Light-winged Psyches and black-robed hg — ' • L-e-y-Wellesley ! It grew louder, and the ision vanished, — ' ' ' Elleslev ! And I dreamed that strange faces thronged the water ' s edge, and as the reveille sounded many boats came gliding o er the water, — L-e-s-1-e-y-Welleslev ; and all the people shouted. lUit the familiar words seemed unfamiliar as the strange voices took uj) the call, L-e-s-l-e-y-Wellesley. Louder and more strange it sounded on m waking ears, ' Ellesley. I awoke, and all was still save the cocks yere crowing shrilly, and the horn of a distant boatman was mingling with their cries. CHasiNG aN iQEa. 1 found a little idea just a minute ago in a far-off corner of u brain : it was a pretty little idea, but ver - shy. 1 approached him politely and cautiously, but he ran away as soon as he saw me. Then I ran aft er him, not wishing to lose him, and for a while succeeded in keeping him in 77 sight : Init. spite of all efforts. I could get no nearer. At last I had almost reached him ; I was just putting out my hand to grasp him. when with a most provoking little laugh he whisked around a corner and was gone, — utterly gone. I could not find a trace of him anywhere, though I looked and looked, and looked. I was sorry, for I did not want to lose him; he was bright, and fresh, and cheery. But he ran quite awav, and I have not seen him since. Has anvbodv else seen anvthins of mv little idea? SENTIMENTALITY. Sentimentality is a brain affection, which seizes the maiden mind be- tAveen the ages of sixteen and twentv. It is extremelv contagious, and one of its chief indications is the strenuous maintaining on the part of the victim that she is entirely free from the peculiar affection. Other symptoms may be seen in the inordinate desire to purchase flowers to lay at the shrine of the beloved, and in the great dithcultv of pursuing intellectual work. The objects of adoration change rapidlv, and the frequency and severity of the attacks usuallv indicate the length of time that the infection vill remain in the system. On account of its contagious and injurious character, every caution should be used to keep it out of a communitv. As soon as the least symptom appears the victim shovdd be quarantined until all danger be passed, when she should be thoroughlv disinfected and returned to her companions. English Literature. There is no better way to show the excellence of the Literature De- partment than by publishing specimens of the work done in the different courses. Before any of these scholarlv productions are written, tlie stu- dent has a thoi-ough drill in the Historv of English Literature, and while studying this is so imbued with the spirit of the great poets, and inspired with enthusiasm, that frequently masterpieces are found among the many admirable papers. The following ballad and Chaucerian specimen show how completely the student is transported to other days, and how ap- propriately she can fit that old-time spirit to this fin dc siecle age, some- what as that renowned magnate made the punishment fit the crime. 78 THE COLLEGE GHOST. Where hae ye been, mv bonnj lass, In milk-white dress so fair? Your cheek is pale, your eye is bright, Unkamed your yellow hair. Where hae ye been, wha hae ve seen That makes ye look so fell? O waly, waly, wae is me. This night o which I tell. It fell about the Martinmas That all alone went I ; The wind did blaw, fast came the snaw, All as I passed bv. • The hall was dark, the hall was dim, The lights were burning low; All full of gruesome noise it was, — A mirk, mirk night, I trow. • ' Then up did start a demon form, mickle did I dree : In circles three it waved its arms. And beckoned unto me. ' Now ye maun go wid me, it said, ' To be my bonny bride. ' ' I will not leave this hall, ' I said ; ■ But I shall here abide ' ' Awa I What do ye want wid me, Or what hae I wid you? I will na go. but here I ' ll stay For aught that ye can do. •Methought he took me in his arms And louted down the stair; And sware by the moon and the stars aboon 1 was his sweetheart fair. ' He had na gone a step, a step, A step but barely ane. When he let me fall fra his twa arms, And left me free again. • He had not gone a step when he met A man wid a lanthorn bright; He let me fall there in the hall, And fled into the night. ■This demon lover fled awa In the twinkling of an eye; And naething more I ever saw But the murkv clouds go bv. 79 a PROLOGUE? WELL, OF COURSE THE LSliDIES KNOW; I HaVE MY DOUBTS. Whan that Septenibre, with his daycs hote, Is pevnting all the trees in every spote, And deynte tloures say the sonne good-by, And smalle foules southerward do fly, Then wenden many maides to Wellesle - Town; And all the day they passe up and down. And maken greetings, every one the same, But all thev wot nat what ' s th ' other ' s name. These maides longen for to study bookes, And eke full learned are these maides lookes ; They study night and day, nor any stente On learning wholly are their mindes bente. And whan four yeares quickly are agone, Certes, a bright B.A. each maide hath wonne. Unto the worlde wide she goes agej ' n To teachen school, — this is the short and pleyn. And to this faire college bids farevvelle And all her mates : there is no more to telle. The following sonnet will reveal how completely the spirit of ISIilton dominated the mind of the student, and how exquisitely her pen found expression for the modern spirit of quiet resignation : — INSPIRHTION. When I consider how my life is spent In grinding on within this mighty hall, And those few talents which I fain would call To solve my Math, (for whicli I have no bent), Prove only useless, and do not pre ent An awful flunk, in wild despair I cry, Wherefore unto this spot came wretched I. ' I have no brains, and never was I meant To grind and worry thus my life away. But soon a bright idea has filled my mind, And of this bliss a deep draught have I drunk. With happy heart I w-ork from day to day. And in this thought great solace do I find : They sometimes pass who only seem to flunk. 80 Philology. Course T. A study of local dialrct t ' oiins. tracin ; their dcvclopincnt from the English lan iua ic. now universally admitted 1) - the best linguists to have heen the original tongue from which ' ellesle tlialect has developed. This includes : — 1. A study of the ])eculiarities of ' ellesle dialect. (a) Richness of the language in interjectional elements. vSee 3 ( ). ( y) Large proportion of adjectixes, as line, beautiful, sweet, dear. ' ' juicy, horrid, mean. 3 (( )■ {c) The general use of the dual number, as illustrated by a student in the mathematics class: ■ couldn ' t get this residt ; per- haps we made some algebraical error. See 3 ( ?). The prevalence of the dual number is believed by some recent philologists to ha e arisen from the constitution of society in the community, according to which most of the Wellesleianie are divided into pairs, one domicile being as- signed to each pair. [d) Almost total disappearance of the masculine gender in nomis. {e) Monosyllabic character of the language as illustrated in such words as the following : — gym. = English, gymnasium, chem. = English, chemistry. Shakes, rrr English, Shakespeare. towMi = English, Boston. 2. Translation mto English of idiomatic phrases, as Cut ' cution and gym. Grind math. Cram for exams. Flunk dead. 3. Study of such phonetic huvs as seem to throw light on the origin and development of the dialect. These laws are, in brief : — [a) Language tends to change rapidly in uncivilized communities. (d) A change once introduced tends to communicate itself to all members of a community. (c) Communities cut off from the rest of the world tend to develop a peculiar language. (( ) Language adapts itself to the temperament of the people, (c) Language is influenced by habits of life, (y) If wdiat is denoted by a word becomes eliminated or extinct, the word tends to be droj ped from the language. . ee i (c ). 8i {£ ) There is a constant tendency anions a busy people to drop all unnecessary letters and syllables. 4. Critical study of grounds for belieying Wellesley dialect to be related to the English language. [a) A common alphabet. (6) A few similar prepositions and conjunctions. (c) The persistence of traces of masculine forms in certain words and phrases, as Man-dible. Free-man. ]Man-dolin. Fresh-man. Man-ikin. A-men ISIist ' er train. Long-fellow. ISIister-y of mister-ies. Fellow of the opposite side. (( ) Wellesleiauie easily acquire the English language, and some, after leaying the colony, have been known to adopt it in place of their own tongue. It is objected by some believers in the antiquity of monosyllabic lan- guages that the Wellesley dialect is the parent form, and the English lan- guage has developed from it. However, the phonetic law, quoted under 3 {£ ' )■ seems to point to the opposite relation. It should be said in this connection that this coiu ' se offers abundant held for original investigation, as the subject has not yet been exhaustively treated; indeed, it is hardly touched upon in the works of such eminent philologists as Brughmann, Paul, or Whitney. Course II. A comparison of the written wnth the spoken language. Students will be required to purchase notebooks of students in Histor} III. and Mathe- matics VIII. Reference will be made to other notebooks. This dialect offers an unusually good example of the extent to which the written language may come to differ from the language of conversation. The almost complete monosyllabic nature of the written language is thought by some to be an evidence that the dialect is related to the Chinese rather than to the English ; while other linguists, arguing from the omis- sion of vowels, hold that we must trace it rather to a Hebrew origin. Students are required from time to time to translate at sight from the written to the spoken language passages of avei ' age difticulty. as the following: R ' s ' n th f ' sh d ' su ' t h ' v m ' re k ' nds of v ' rt ' rbrte. Th f ' sh d ' sn ' t w ' nt to s ' t d ' wn on acc ' t of its tail. — [Notebook of member of class in Zoo.] This course i invalualilc to students intentling at any time to write forensics on phonetic spelling. Such students are advised to take the course during their Sophomore }ear. 82 HIL050PBY. I. ESTHETICS. Hegel ' s theory regarding beauty, with application of principles of lusthetics to objects of local and familiar interest. The following brief application of the theory of l)cautv to a single case will serve to show something of the aims and methods of the course : — FUNDaMENTHL PRINCIPLES OF BEaUTY. Anything is beautiful in so far as it fulfills its ideal. Anything fulfills its ideal when it perfectly expresses in its measure the absolute ideal. The absolute ideal is characterized by being self-originating, self-direct- ing, self-limiting, self-reproducing, and self-revealing. THE BOaiHOUSE CONSIDEREt) RS a TYPE OF BEaUTY. No one can doubt that it has always been Wellesley ' s ideal to have a boathouse. We have a boathouse, and this alone is sufiicient to show that it fulfills its ideal. Further, we all remember the beautiful water-color sketch displayed some two years ago as the absolute ideal of a boathouse ; and when we look on the graceful outlines, stately colonnades, spacious halls, broad verandas, and lofty towers of the boathouse, we cannot doubt that it perfectly expresses in its measin-e that absolute ideal. ' Tis true we had hoped for a somewhat larger measure. Yet this does not alter the fact that it does express, in its measure, the absolute ideal. However, to apply the principles of beauty more closely, we see that it is 1. Self-originating; for no one has been found who claims to have orig- inated it. Further, nothing can be originated except by something like itself ; but there is nothing like the lK:)ath()use ; hence we are forced to conclude that it is self-originating. 2. Self-directing ; for it is an estaldished fact that after its erection it directed its course toward the bottom of the lake at such a rate as to rec[uire immediate attention. Furthermore, it was especiallv self- directing in that no one was found last fall with authority to direct it. 83 3- Self-limitin_2: ; for it limits itself to the accommodation of crew boats and private boats, refusini to admit the stately Portia or the spriij htly l ' r (l in, who from their lon - and faithfnl service surely deserve rest and retirement. 4. Self-reproducino . for it lias re]:)roduced its self-originating, in the original criticism it has called forth; Its self-directing-, in the builders, who at once directed new and strong piles to be inserted beneath it, that it might not altogether disappear beneath the waves; Its self-limiting, in the limited funds available for its maintenance. :;. Self-revealing : its real character is rapidly being revealed as the greenness of outh doth peel from off its sides. Since, then, the boathouse gi es expression, in its measure, to all the characteristics of the absolute ideal, it is found deserving of the adjective ' beautiful. Open to criticism. Given for the Jirst time in 18( 4. II. iPPLiEt) Logic. The practical application of the rules of Logic to the determination of right conduct. The following will serve as a tvpe of the problems constantly presented to the class. Explain the principles of logic underlying the following inci- dent : — Time, 9.30 p. M. vStudent, who has been playing l)anjo vigorously, at a knock opens the door and encounters Professor, who mildly remon- strates. Student. — I knew there was a rule against playing in study hours, so I thought it was all right to play in Silent Time. Professor retires. III. T PES OF THICSL fpHEORY. Psvchological investigation of the laws of the scholastic mind to account for and justifv ethical methods. These types are divided into two classes. a. Facultv type. This appears in two forms, only one of which is printed below. The reciprocal forms may be easily deduced according to the principles of inference. 1. One school holds that lessons should be such as may be learned within a period of one hour and a half. 2. One school holds that classes should be dismissed promptly at the close of the period. 3. One school holds that rules found necessary for the peace and (luiet of the communitv are binding alike on all members of the com- mnnit ' . 84 b. Student Type, The following- is in outline the t pc usuallv held bv the student : — 1. Senior caps should not be worn during- class appointments; this indicates lack of respect for the instructor in cliaroe. and is never practiced in men ' s colleges. (I ) Some students cjuestion the exact parallelism here. 2. Soap, bluin , and other washing material found in the laundr should receive the consideration usually accorded private prop- erty, and should never be borrowed except by written permission of the owner. 3. Members of the Faculty should be allowed to draw books and magazines from the library at their convenience. Any student desiring to consult such books may easilv discover their absence by consulting the card on which said members of the Faculty have neglected to charge the volumes. 4. Members of the Faculty should be allowed free use of drapery curtains. There is no danger of their setting fire to them. 5. To each member of the Faculty should be assigned a table in the library where she may keep her books, papers, and fountain pen undisturbed. If the present supply of tables is insufficient for this purpose more should be secured. Students may procure slates at the bookstore which mav be held in the lap, and require no table for their support. 6. No manner of work may be done on Sunday, except domestic work : sweeping should be done religiouslv at least once a week. IV. Psychology as propseideutic to Philosophy. Text-book: De vey ' s Psychology, revised by member of Class of ' 95. The principal points of difference are : — 1. The concept is of the particular, not of the general, for ' -experi- ence shows us that in the concept ' man ' we alwavs tliink one particular man. 2. It is not true that low degrees of sensation are painful; for in- stance, moonlight. 3. Some illustrations cited by Mr. Dewey have been slightlv altered for the sake of greater vividness, as in the example of the differ- ent psychological effect of a fine picture on a cultivated man and on a boor. Altered to read, on a cultixated man and on a wild beast. During the second semester the students ' grasp of the principles of psy- chology is tested by simple problems, such as : — 8s a. Give the probable psychological explanation of the following : — 1. The academic council unanimously opposed a suggestion that a committee from their niuiiber be appointed to have entire charge of the publication of the Lkgenda. 2. After the first few meetings, Le(;knda editors no longer alisent themselves when their own manuscript is to be read before the board. b. In the following cases show whether or not the psychological results of the action are likely to be desirable : — I. The writing up of experiments in laboratory notel ooks. 3. The voting In ' some organizations to keep rules which they are alreadv bound to obey. 86 I STORY. O History, noble History, at once the despair and delight of our souls, permit us for one moment to sing thy praises unrestrained 1 Thou art at once the torment and blessing of our race. On thee we waste our freshest strength and maiden energy, our nightly vigils and untiring zeal (not to mention oil and candles), and on thee we squander our last cent for private reference books and slip sheet paper. Each day we offer up to thee a praver for health and strength. Our hearts, our hopes, our prayers, our tears, Our faith triumphant o ' er our fears. Are all with thee, are all with thee. Forgive us if we sometimes seem to falter in thy service, if the fire upon thy altar has sometimes burned a little low, and the flowers upon thy shrine have grown a little faded. Even the sturdiest faith will falter, and the truest love grow cold. Is it strange that on a bright May morning the world outside appears more interesting than the divisions on the map of Europe in 1S12? Do you think we enjoy that morning hour when, mayhap, just out from Boston on the seven-thirty train, we sit like prisoners awaiting trial, vainly hoping it is not our turn to recite ; listening anxiously for the sound of that welcome bell, while strains from Faust or Lohengrin, or, perchance, the Bowerv Girl, ring idly in our ears ? We hear a name, a familiar one,— alas, it is our own,— and blushing to the verge of conflagration, with a courage born of despair, we rise to make it unpleasantly evident that we are not prepared ! Or, again, we may have spent the evening previous in rushing madly about the library, unable to secure a book, or if successful, may have read three solid hours only to find in class that we have not touched upon the point discussed. 87 At such times.

It will 1)C found that the courses offered in this department hear directly on nian - of the prohlenis of student life. Their advantas es, therefore, are easily deduced. First, in studvinti the industrial history of a nation, man facts are to he learned which throw light on the questions connected with the laboring classes of Wellesley ; . e., those members of the College who, as employees of the Faculty, are training themselyes for future domestic life, or for the position of amanuenses. vSuch problems of the hour as the following are discussed : — 1. Shall all employers be allowed to treat yith their employees pri- vately ? 2. INIay not a s •mpathetic strike be arranged between different working circles demanding wages other than food and lodging? 3. Is it just that in this supposedly well-organized Working Girls ' Home, one employee should be able to complete her labors for the day by Nyalking down stairs in the morning trailing her skirts after her, while the coinhabitant of her room spends one and one-half hours in the library? The Statistical Study of Economic Problems and the Historical Deyelopment of Socialism are especially recommended to loyal Society members. Not only are ways and means deyised for attracting to the prom- inent vSocieties of the day the wandering young souls of the lower classes of the community, but statistics are given as to the good york already done by the various rescue missions in the different parts of the College. It is to be regretted that the creeds of these missions vary so widely that one must choose between them once for all, and forever after hold her peace. It will be seen, then, that followers of this course are never lacking, and some of the best strength and energy in the College are put into its work. 13 1 STORY OF RT. HRT ElREaMING. HE clay was cold, and dark, and dreary. I was standing in one of the little chambers of the cat- acombs gazing at Michael Angelo ' s Last Judg- ment. I was thinking how the ' ' paths of glory lead bnt to the grave, when 1 happened to turn mv head and saw the Winged Victory of Apteros coming toward me — sans month, sans eyes, sans head. She smiled sweetly, and taking me by the hand she led me through Ghiberti ' s bronze doors, and we ascended to the nave of Westminster Abbey. Far above my head rose the majestic domes of St. Sophia, while the chimes in the northern tower played •Douce Maria. The Sante Croce pillars rose in striped contrast to the painted vaulting of Ely Cathedral which lined the domes. At the end of the nave was the beau- tiful rose window of Notre Dame, and at the sides, each window was one of the panels of the Sistine ceiling. Behind the marble pulpit of Pisa rose, as a sounding board, the vSistine Madonna in a frame of Era Angel- ico ' s Angels. From the north transept I went into the Alhambra, and found the Pre-Raphaelite School in session. They were listening to a lecture on The Beautiful and its Function in Art, by George Du Mau- rier. I returned to the Abbey and walked through the southern transept, which was full of statues from Milan Cathedral and mummies from the Pyramids. A secret door opened and I found myself in the Vatican, with Pope Leo X. for a guide. He showed me the plan of his tomb, which the architect of the Chicago Auditorium had drawn up, and told me that the Emperor Constantine was going to erect it for him on the present site of Tammany Hall. Leo X. led me into a great room, where I heard sweet music and saw the Apollo Belvedere in a dress suit dancing with Venus, who wore an evening gown trimmed with jewels from Thomas a Becket ' s shrine. Michael Angelo ' s Day and Night, and Twilight and Dawn were dancing to- gether, as were Donatello ' s vSt. George and St. Cecilia, Diana of the Louvre, and Lorenzo de Medici. Leo X. told me these receptions were held every Monday night in the Galilee Chapel, and that only those belonging to the seven hundred were allowed to be present. I passed into the state dining room of Versailles, where cathedrals and statues of ice cream greeted my 90 •eye. The tables were set around an open square, in the center of which were beautiful palnis. I was thinking how natural they looked, when David came up to Leo X. and doffed his hat most j racefully. Leo said, It is 6.15, — time to go to bed ; that is all. David disappeared, and in a second the deep notes of a bronze bell broke the stillness ; the company dis- persed, while Leo X. left me to see that tlie lights were all out promptly. ft Uii :vyys-vvyyjs MM 91 aTBEMOTICS. The (lopartmcMit of Alathematics is open to all students except Freshmen, For them the course is closetl, but they are on the inside of this door to knowledii e. All courses of this tlepartment offer solutions of practical pr(jl)len ' is, which are presented dav and nit ht to the uninitiated student. Great oppor- tunities ai ' e thus given for original work. Coi ' KSE I, Required of all students (much to their sorrow). FIRST TERM. SOLID GEOMETRY. The entering Freshman cannot realize her good fortune in having this course of training ; but the following problems will, we trust, convince hei of the necessi ty of it. Problem I. Given a door 3 ft. vide and a trunk 3 ft. 3 in. by 4 ft. S in. and 4 ft. high. How can the trunk be taken into the room? A similar problem is suggested by the amount of floor space inside the room. Note. The answer generally oflered to this problem is, Leave the trunk in the corridor. We hope sometime to receive a more scientific solution. Prol)lem II. Given a room 7 ft. bv 10 ft. with two beds, 3 ft. by 6 ft.,, two bureaus 2 ft. bv 5 ft., a wardrobe 2 ft. by 5 ft., and a stand li ft. by 4 ft., and four chairs. Required to tind the number of layei ' s of furniture and the amount of floor space left for one ' s feet. Students who are ambitious might calculate the maximum size of feet that could possibly be accommodated and the probability of being able to turn around. Problem III. Given two girls passing on a board walk 3 ft. wide. If the girls are each i ft, in breadth and their sleeves extend out 2 ft., how many more boards 6 in. wide, i in. apart, are needed to make the board walk wide enough . ' Note. Previous experience has shown that students are not inclined to seek the right solution of this problem, and avoid it by turning sideways when they pass. The original work in this course has been extraordinary. Two ne v axioms, marvelous in the extent of their application, have been propounded. 92 Axiom I. If two a nobles of a trianj lc arc riu ht anc les, the third is a rij ht angle. Axiom II. If two planes are not perpendicular, thev must l)e parallel. SECOND TERM.

This is an important branch of mathematics, whose value was fully ap- preciated by the ancients; for Jacob wrestled with an angle, and ' ' Moses Avas hidden in an arc. We offer in this work muisual advantages for the stud} ' of surveying; e. g ., a burning hot sun, a blinding light, an inabilitv to see what you should, and one instrument. The work and the results in this course are always original ; no class ever obtains the results of its predecessors. Another great advantage of the course is the assistance it offers to a clear understanding of current literature; as the solution of the triangle (societies) mentioned in ' 94 ' s Legenda. Course II. Offered to all who survive Course I. Axaeyticae Geometry OR Conic Sections. All fun-loving students are advised to take this course as it is almost comical ; we feel forced to admit, however, that few who have tried it have succeeded in seeing the ludicrous side of it. Illustrati(jns and practical applications of the work are afforded through- out the College. Even the shadows are conical ; for example, in the third turn of Domestic Hall the gaslight casts a parabolic shadow. Problems offered by this course : — I. Given a bed ft. 4 in. long antl a girl 6 ft. tall. Write the equa- tion and plot the curve of the girl. II. Find the focus of the points of contact of the girls in the bookstore after chapel. Put the curve into position, if possible. III. Examine the curves, for conic sections, formed bv the frantic efforts of embrvo skaters on Lake Waban. Applv the same problem to those learning the outer edge. Course III. Calculus : Differextial axd Ixtegkae. Open to all who have taken successfully Courses 1. and II. The advantages of this course lie in the ability gained in dealing with infinitely small quantities, such as the s])ace in the elevator, the amount of Page 212. 93 cream in the ice cream, the sjood done hy the high duster, and the time to do what you please. We have recently learned that it can be allied to physiology, for by its agency one student has learned that her brain is inHnitcly small, and is studying how it shall take an increment. We ( ffer but one problem under this course as illustrative of others. It is one of our most important daily calculations. Problem. Compute the amount of space allowed to each girl in the chapel. This might be solved under the Freshman course, but the result is so small, that it would be lost if it were not for the infinitesimal calculus. Courses IV. and V. Withdrawn, to absorb moisture. Course VI. Mechanics, Celestial Dynamics, Gp:odynamics. Who chooseth me must give and hazard all he hath. The chief accomplishment of those who enter this course is the power to state fluently what they are studying. Problems in this course will be given to the ambitious student on appli- cation. Mathematics, XIII. This course is commonly known as Logic, but that it falls naturally under the general branch. Mathematics, is shown by the following silly gism. Logic is a thing that begins with log. Logarithm is a thing that begins with log. Therefore logic is a logarithm. Therefore losfic is mathematics. Gism is an old Anglo-Saxon word meaning joke. 94 HEMISTRY. Coinisp: I. Genera r. Chemistry. As this course is offered to Freshmen, as well as other students, we insert the followinor fairy talc to attract the attention f the little ones. FflTE OF KING CHEM. Once upon a time on the o:reat hi ,diway of a valley, under the brow of a mighty hill, a beautiful castle stood. Its architecture was neither Romanesque, nor Gothic, nor anything else, but it had an individual style, which was very impressive in its simple grandeur; indeed, there never was and never will be another such building. No Gothic structure, how- ever, in its towering spires and slender turrets, had the inspiration which was expressed in the numberless tin chimneys which adorned the roof of this great dwelling; no Romanesque cathedral even suggested the strong massiveness which was stamped on the noble timbers of the castle thinly coated with yellow paint. No sky-line could be more aesthetic or artistic than that presented by this building. Hundreds of people climbed the hill daily to look down upon the mighty castle. Here dwelt a great monarch who was called King Chem. As his real name was only a vague mystery, he was formally spoken of and ad- dressed as Chem-mystery. He was a member of a large family whose name was Science ; people commonly said that Chem-mvstery was a branch of Science, but this was only their abbreviated and undignified way of referring to his genealogical tree. He was a powerful ruler, and held sway over a great class of beings who were called scientific students, and the individuals of this class were simple elements. Gossip said that Chem examined the elements, and investigated the laws governing their combi- nations; and gossip for once was right, for he had a Facultv for exam- mmg students, and for regulating their combinations in rooms, divisions, and classes. 95 In liis marvelous kinii(li)in wonders nc cr ceased, lOr be was devoted to experiments under all conditions. Each year indi iduals came under his power, each an element free and simple, a molecvde, the tiniest thing that can exist In itself, and he hrought these elements together. Very often the combined, because the alhnitv of one student for another was strong; antl then the individuals were no longer molecules, for they coidd not exist bv themselves. Often a verv strong flame with fierce heat was required for the experiment, and then, too, a reaction often set in. Even when these combinations were made the molecular, or combined weight, of the students was verv small, for it was onlv twice the specific gra it ; and even the scientific student is not over grave and serious. Chem did not contine his experiments to fixed periods, although one of the laws of his kingdom was called the Periodic Law. Chem himself made observations all the time, and kept a mightv notebook. This the students seldom saw ; l)ut it might have been w ell if thev had seen it, for it might have shown them the error of their ways. One dav he summoned all the people to hear some of his great obser- vations. When the people were gathered together he opened his book and read : — Night observations. Night-traits. 1. The elements support combustion after ten o ' clock. 2. The striking of a large piece of iron has no effect upon many combinations ; on others it has anvthing but a composing effect. 3. A noise often takes place in the dark between the elements of a combination. Night-rides. 1. Late trains — unattended — disastrous to elementary combinations. 2. Cold and snow increase activity of the elements. Here a great shout rose from the people and drowned the voice of the sovereign. The indignant people cried: ' ' Down with the observer I Contine him in the castle. With a sudden rush the elements overpow- ered King Chem, and carried out their threat. Ever since Chem has lived in confinement in the castle, it has been spoken of as the New- Chemis- try Building. 96 ( EOLOGY. Sti ' dexts in this course are given an opportunity to win fame 1) - writing :and publishing a book called Stones of Wellesley, to be used as a text- book here. To students undertaking this task we would suggest that the several chapters be devoted to the various remarkable and interesting stones found here ; and in illustration we give the following, a few from man which might be mentioneil : — (1) Stone Hall. A curious stone of great size, strange structure, and marvelous composition. (2) Grave stone of ' Sy ' s tree. Qiiestion of interest: Why should a li ing tree have a grave stone ? (3) Stones found in a certain plum jam served frequentlv in College Hall. Remarkalile for the large numlier found in a small quantitv of the jam. (4) vStumbling blocks. For these stones the student conducting the research is referred to the dark alcoves of the lilirary. Great care is necessary in these observations. ,(5) The grind stone. There are two varieties of this stone. Interesting statistics of one variety can be obtained from every student member of the College. For the other ariety the investigator is referred to Class Historians and LiiCiKNOA editors as the best authorities. 97 {V[l(N[ER?ILOGY.

Lat)I1 ' :s elcctins tliis course ill find it of i reat j ractical alue. as tlic t ' ollowing testimonial, furnished by a former student in the course, will prove : — I ha e taken Course I. in Physics, and find the study of the laws of (my) nature very interesting and improvino . Never before could I explain my desire to sleep late in the mornin 2 ; but when in this course I learned that a ' bod at rest wovdd rest forever, ' I had no more scruples in yielding- to the temptation. Moreover, when, in rushing through the corri- dors, I came into collision with Faculty, I felt no embarrassment ; for I had learned that a • body in motion must move forever in the same direction unless acted upon by some force outside of itself. ' In the first case, this force was in the rising bell; in the second, it was in the Facult , and the Faculty is the greatest force with which a body contends. The law of the indestructibility of matter was of great use in mv dining room domestic work, for I no longer feared the overturning of a dray of , pitchers, or the downfall of too high a pile of butter plates ; no longer did anxiety for the handles of the cups oppress me, for the great law taught me that matter could not be destroyed. To be sure, these laboratory experi- ments often failed to give the results which were compatible with the law, but our instructor told us that we must not expect our experiments to give the proper results at the tirst trial ; we must have patience ; and I was willing to try the experiment often. Another law which guided (my) nature was that ' everv action has an opposite and equal reaction. ' For days I would deliberately grind, for I knew a most delightfully lazy period must ine itably follow. This slight warning was sutiicient to prevent me from being funny and amusing, for I learned that ' the melancholy days would come. ' Poor Le(;exda girls I I would sigh ; what a sandwich of grax ' e and gay their life must be I jNIv text-liook taught me that pressure was exerted et|ually on all sides of a bod}- immersed in water. In my laboratory work, which is Course II., I found that this law had much wider extension ; that the pressure was equal on all sides of a body trying to buy a ticket to the (ilee and 1 Jan jo Club concert. I hope these discoveries of mine will l)e inserted in the re ised edition of the text-books. ' ' The law, however, which reliexed me of the most anxiety was that con- cerning the conserxation of energy. No matter how weary I was, 1 could 99 comfcirt nnsclf with ihc tlioii.ti ' lil tliat all my cnery;y was still intact. I could worry to mv heart ' s content; I could rush madly throuijh the corri- dors, or hasten from one lnHldin ; to another, knowing- thai thus the complete sum of all mv vital enero-y could not be in the least diminished. ' • Looking over the o-rantl results of this trainins:, 1 woidd advise all my friends to take Physics. ?lSTRONOMY. This course offers a study of the stars, — a studv for wliich Wellesley affords excellent opportunities. All the ladies are advised to take it, as especial interest lies in the fact that in ever ' course there is a star, and every star has her course. Each year new stars appear above the Wellesley ho- rizon, and each vear many familiar stars start on longer orbits. Besides the greater stars there are many lesser ones, so that intimate acquaintance with some one star is open to all. Moreover, each ladv is encouraged to become a star. Stars from other horizons often stray into the Welleslev skv, generally on Monday evening, and niay be observed through opera glasses. Opportunity for original work is offered in this course in the study of the stars which shine on Boston ; such as Julia Marlowe Taber, Irving and Terry, and the prima doi i as of the Grand Opera. This work must, how- ever, be entirely original, no consultation being held with the instructors previous to the observations ; and the examinations and results must be strictly private. This course is very popular, although few choose to take it seriously enough to matricvdate. Since the above was printed, changes have been made in this coiu-se. It is no longer open to Freshmen and Sophomores For their benefit, however, tlie results of the work done in this line by the upper classes will be made public oraNY. Bo TAX ' is chieflv valual )le in assisting; the classes in the selection and care of their flowers and trees. ' 9:; was especially fortunate in this respect, for had it not been for the opportune suggestion of a Botany instructor, ' 9 might still haye been doing reyerence to a maple tree ; but as it is, she has taken one step more in the direction of her ideal sycamore, and at present does homage to a sycamore-maple. It is presumably b the adyice of tlie Botan Department that the class trees are transplanted to tlie selected spot in May, and that this ceremony is done in the early morning, as quietly as possible (it ma ' lie that excitement is as bad for a young tree as for a young child). For the benefit of those students who will enter next fall, it may he wise to state just here, that the flowers found in the First Floor Centre eyery morning are not raised by the Botany Department for the comfort and cheer of homesick Freshmen. Ilowexer, this department does haye a garden and greenhouse, where all kinds of beautiful plants and flowers are raised ; Imt these are not for sale, as the student discoyered who tried to buy a pink rose for her senior — friend. fT- OOLOGY nnt) HYSIOLOGY. This department aims to give the student a thorough knowledge of ani- mal life from a morphological, physiological, anatomical, histological, emhi ' vological and evolutionary point of view. I. Gexkrai, Biology. Each student is presented with a pet cra ' fish, vhich she usually succeeds in killing by too much care. II. General Zoology. This seeks to propound and investigate questions of deep physiological interest, as : — I. Where is the amccba ' s skeleton? 3. Why doesn ' t a fish drown. ' Because it can swim. 3. Wh ' do birds have foliage? Because they belong to the Audubon J ocietv. and do not believe it right to wear feathers. 4. Why does a (luadrupcd ha e five legs? . Wh - does the rabbit have a tail? ' • There ' s a divinity that shapes our ends. 103 III. Anatomy oi- the Cat. This course seeks to lessen the number of feline specimens in and around Welleslev, and furnishes rare hrick-a-brack in the care- full preserved skeletons. IV. Emhryoi,o(;v of tiik Ciikk. This course gives a practical knowledge of incubating, and those students living near the lal)oratory are expected to rise at mid- night, if necessarv. and feed the gaping mouths of the mother- less chicks. 1. Piiii.osopiiicAL Zoology. This (like the rest of Welleslev College) deals with the survival of the fittest. VIII. Elementary Physiology axd Hygiene. Required of Sophomores. Two hours per week with ' ' lab periods which may be cut ad iujinitum (with a certain condition). IX. General Physiology. Of great advantage in bringing before the mind such useful facts as : that man is not radially symmetrical; that man is not a two- legged quadruped; that man breathes with lungs, not with the- diaphragm, although those who have had vSophomore elocution might not suspect it ; that the heart is a very complicated (M ' gan. 104 J ese Trw clf; , ' c( dv€ oM ' ieS tac! ; dXvt; r ■ ; 1 race f- fy Tr v e r-y vve ■ vc;rf y race f ej .

This most instructive course was driven up last vear hecause there were ■so few meinl)ers of ' 94 who seemed incHned to adopt a domestic life. However, in times past this department has done (ood work, and manv valuable statistics have been obtained. For the benelit of those who con- template adoptini,r domestic work as a profession, the followino- scanty items have l)een leathered as a possible aid. If, for e am])le, Welleslev College eats 10.304 potatoes in a week, experience will soon teach how- ma ny t vo ])eople will eat. Further helpful calculations are as follows: — 1. The College consumes 136 chickens a meal. If the 101.472 eggs which we use in a year were allowed to hatch, they would fur- nish us with a chicken dinner every dav for three years. 2. We eat 10.304 potatoes in a week. These would line the ave- nue l-rom the AJain Iiuilding to the restaurant. The supply tor a year would reach to Boston and back again. 3. The 127.008 quarts of milk used yearly would supply 31,752 poor families with a generous allowance of milk for a day; or would furnish milk enough for 21,121,280 cups of tea, — a supply which would last 10,156 maiden ladies with three cups apiece per day for a full year. The cpiantity of milk allowed is sufficient to weaken the tea to such an extent that it would not keep them awake at night. 4. The tlour barrels for a year, if piled one on top of the other, would make a tower twenty-one times as high as the Main Building. 5. The 800 pounds of sugar and 765 pounds of table l)uttcr used in a week, would make sauce for 13.000 pounds of plum pudding. 6. We consume 340 pies a meal. If we had pies once a week for a college year, they would carpet a main corridor from one end of the building to the other, and enough pies would be left over for one hmch. 7. There are 10 bunches of liananas used a meal. This amounts to eating in a year three times as many bananas as there are volumes in the librar -. A college year is approximately 36 weeks. 107 If vc use eis ht boxes of oran jes a meal, it v();il(] supply one j,iil with domestic work (liiiiui; her whole college coin e to count the orans es used in a vear in order to see that none were carried from table. If ice cream in ariablv appeared after roast beef, it would take 132.480 t|uarts of milk to furnish cream for the ice cream. We should iudi e that one bottle of extract would be sufHcient for rtavoriuiT. 108 LOCUTION, There is no department in the College where the work has such a vital connection with other departments and with the daily life of the stu- dent as has Elocution. We see its influence everywhere, — in College Hall Dining Room, in the sweet and modulated voices of the girls; in the ' ' harmonic poise of a student as she hurries from the fifth floor of the Main Building to the third floor of Stone Hall in less than ten minutes ; in the clear and strong voices heard in class recitations ; in the soft and melodious whispers at the concerts on Mondav nights. The students are so enthusiastic that they are wont to practice after ten o ' clock, and one may often hear faint la, la, le, lo, loo ' s, or the gentle murmur of Ten- nyson ' s Brook. disturbing the midnight quiet. Just as to the ears of the scientist, the trees, rocks, animals, all repeat the strain, Evolution. Evolution, so to the ears of the Wellesley student the atmosphere is full of the sound of Elocution, Elocution. 109 Pedagogics. [The following development lesson has been worked out with great care,, following the models given bv De Graffe and Smith, and is especially arranged for the use of the editor-in-chief of the ' 9 Lkgexda in her con- ference with the following Legexda board. By a little adaptation other officials having dealings with Legexda boards may tind it suggestive.] Review carefidlv all the tradition relating to Legenda publication. Be sure that the children understand anti remember all legislation as previously developed before proceeding to the development of a new jDoint. Object : To cultivate discrimination, literarv judgment, and caution. Point : To develop the idea of and teach Grind. Materials : Thirteen ' 94 Legexdas, thirteen ' 95 Legexdas. Statements : We call jokes about people Personal Jokes. A Personal Joke from which the name of the person may be directly inferred is called a Grind. Method : Teacher. — (After having meml)crs of the class read selections from ' 94 ' s Legexda.) To what class of writing do these selections belong. ' ' CJiild. — These selections are humorous. (The teacher must not expect mature criticism at this point. ) Tr. — What do wc call such bits of humorous writing? CJi. — We call such Ints of humorous writing jokes. (If the previous work has 1)een thoroughh ' done there will be no dithculty in securing this answer. If, however, the children cannot be led to gi e this term, the teacher should supplv it and furnish the children a suthcient number of ex- amples from the ' 95 Lk(;i: da to fix the term thoroughly in the children ' s minds. In this work the teacher sIkjuUI be careful t(j select her illustrations from the best sources only. ) Tr. — You mav each of vou o])en ()ur ' 94 Legen ' das and tind a joke, (Teacher should liave the class read the jokes tliey ha e found.) Now these are all jokes. What differences can you see in them : First C .— Some of them are new ones and some are old ones. Second C .— Some are funny and some are not. (Teacher here ex- plains that all jokes are funny, and reviews definition of joke. ) 7 -.— Now you may open your ' 95 LKCiKxnAs. What do you notice about these jokes .- J fy ' ' - C .— Some of them are al.out people, and some are not. 7)-.— We call jokes about people personal jokes. (Teacher writes defi- nition on board, and class repeat in concert.) 7)-.— What is the name of the person to whom your joke refers.? - — I t o not know. The name is not giyen. Tr. — Would you like to kno y the person ' s name? C .— No. The person miorht not like to haye his name known. (The teacher may rest assured that he is making proper use of the deyelopment method if the first child called upon giyes this answer.) 7 ' .— Each child may read me a joke from the ' 94 Legexda. (Children, after diligent search, read.) Tr. — What name do you giye to these jokes.? Ch. — These are personal jokes. rr.— How do these differ from the personal jokes you read from the other book ? Ch.— can tell the name of the person to whom these jokes refer. (Some child may say, These jokes are funnier than others. If so, the teacher must carefully explain the child ' s mistake, as no further advance can be made until this impression is removed.) 7 -.— What is the name of a joke of this sort? (Some child may know the name, and if so will be gratified by this opportunity to suggest it. Otherwise the teacher will supply it. ) Tr. — What, then, is a grind? Class.— X personal joke from which the name of the person may be directly inferred is called a grind. (Teacher vrites definition on the board, and children copy on the title-page of their Legexda notebooks. ) For busy work the teacher may ask the children to find an example of a grind in ' 95 ' s Legexda. This will keep the class profitably and pleasantly occupied for a limitless time, if care is taken to prevent discouragement at their failure to accomplish the task. SSYYYYYYYYK M U5IC ♦ ♦ ♦ MEDLEY.

(h-eanied the athletic Fresh- man, while ropes, chest weights, parallel bars, rowing machines, and bluc- bloused maidens are hopelessly confused in her dream-consciousness. Slie turned uneasiK. ,Vh ! it is her commencement day; the President is deli - ering a Latin address; she holds in her hand a parchment, — her degree, at last I Proudly she unrolls il. n- n- ui i)-. i t n-opo7}ieir c Tabic. Aiul slie is Init a Freshman, after all. of whom is recpiired three hours weekly practice in Swedish Gymnastics. Again she dreamed. She is standing in the gymnasium, when silently the walls begin to recede from her; and as the room enlarges new apparatus- appears eyerywhere, and blue-ldoused figures come trooping in, till finally the whole Class of ' 99 stand before her. — and yet there is room for more. At first she cannot moye, for wonder; Vmt swift the thought comes to her, ' ' Some one has died and giyen us a new gymnasium : she is not glad that any one should haye died. Then her fancy flits to new scenes. All winter this sleeping Freshman had practiced well and faithfully ; her record is blackened by no unexcused absence from gym. Her lungs are strong, her heart has stood every test, her back is a yery rod of iron in strength. Instructors haye smiled approvingly and classmates haye whispered, She is sure of the crew. And now she sees in a vision the shores of Lake Waban, and everywhere are lanterns hanging from the trees; on the water colored lights Inn-n (and go out, sometimes), casting a strange shimmer over the rippling surface. Little boats dart in and out with their happy parties ; while a picturesque gondola appears from the shadows, and again disappears into them. But the people on the shore — and it seems to her there are many thou- sands of them — are strangely quiet, and are looking all adown the lake where the new boathouse stands. And she looks too. Presently there crlides out from beneath it four long, slender shells, and in each are eight o-irls sitting straight with oars held firm, not a break in the perfect line. And she sees herself in one of the boats, the straightest girl of all ; and when they row they all keep time with her, for she is the most perfect in the swing and catch of her oars. Her first float, and she is stroke 1 As she watches, there goes up a great shout from the crowd ; some sav one thing and some another, but above all she seems to hear them cheering her class, her boat, herself. And then more boats appear, which seem nearly as broad as the others are long, and it is difficult to say which is the length and which the breadth, except that the rowers have placed a flag on the edge, and always keep that end foremost. 130 Meanwhile the crowd on the shore cease not to cheer, save when the rowers wonhl sini:;. and then sometimes the ' are quiet. She hears, too, many people eai erh askini ' when the crews will race, and she feels very proud of the answer she hears : •• The object of the crews is skill in row- ing, not speed, for she is conscious that she herself is well deserving praise. At last the boats that have been clustered together begin to separate, hile the poeple on the shore vent their enthusiasm in vild cheers. Wah, Hoo — ' 95 — i-a-1 Iv ri Ktivra — vip, I yell — ' 97 — rah, rah — kui i-ra — 96, ' 98— Wah, Hoo, Wah ! She turned in her chair anil awoke with a start. It was alreadv time to meet the cousin who was to visit her that dav. Others might take their visitors to the librarv, to the Zoological col- lection, or to the Art Building, but for her there were scenes of greater moment. Her cousin should at least see the new clay tennis courts, the gift of Dr. Channing. But first her visitor should see the athletic field : she did not call it an athletic field; she called it a plavstead. Athletics are out of stvle, you kno v. And she explained how it was three acres in size (appearances are sometimes deceitful); how the path around it was reallv an eight-lap running track ; how beautiful the fresh, green grass would lot)k if it were only a little later in the season. As thev walked she spoke with great enthusiasm of the bicvcle club and of the liasket liall teams with their inter-class contests, and told how La Crosse vas being introduced, and bade fair to take its place by the side of basket ball as an established college sport. With pride she displayed the grassv flat that had been laid out for golf, and explained that the marks for the goals were not erected over the graves of fallen soldiers. As they returned slowly, the sound of applause and cheering led them to the tennis court, where the spring tournament w ' as in progress. But it was in vain they sought to gain a glimpse of the plavers. The dense crowd of on-lookers prevented any approach ; even the windows of jMusic Hall were completelv blocked with those who would view the contest for the college championship and the Wright Ditson racquet. Reluctantlv thev turned awav. One thing yet remained to be dis- played, and that not the least important possession of the department. Before the peremptorv All aboard sounded through the halls, she had shown to the admiring eves of her cousin that speaking witness to the growing interest in phvsical training, — the new Sports and Pastimes bulletin board. 131 , • pa 5 S ' }.

G to our proxiniitx ' to Boston, vc liavc m;in ' umisual ojipor- tunitics l or hearing ' speakers and singers of note; and our many l ind and influential friends have succeeded in l)rin yino to us, from time to time, rep- resentative and eminent lecturers from tlie great outside world. Our lectures this vear ha e covered a variet of subjects, — literary, his- torical, social, ])olitical, and scientilic. In addition to the occasional Mon- day evenin y lectures, ve ha e this vear enjosed another scries, offered b v the departments of Histoi and Literature. These ha e been given on Saturday afternoons, the subjects being matters of everyday intei ' est. For this reason we often speak of them as the Current Topics Course. In connection with them two readings have been given ; the first bv jNIrs. Deland, the second by Kate Douglass Wiggin. The selections read by them were from their own writings, and, needless to sav. these entertain- ments were universall} ' enjoved. Of the outside lecturers, perhaps no one interested us more than Dr. Robbins, the head worker of the New York College Settlement. She gave us a graphic account of her work, and thoroughly aroused our sympathies in the educational work among our less fortunate brothers and sisters. Twice we have had the pleasure of listening to INIr. Lloyd, of the Car- penters ' L nion. Some of us were surprised to learn of the intelligent and organized efforts of the working people in their own behalf. By the time Mr. Lloyd had finished, he had aroused in his audience a deep interest in the subject of ' Strikes and Trade L nions. Sometimes the lecturers, instead of being outside friends of note, have been our own professors, vho have addressed us on subjects not offered in the college curriculum. Professor Coman ' s lecture on the ' ' Chicago Strike supplemented Mr. Llovd ' s talks. Miss Kendall spoke on the House of Lords, Miss Bates on ' ' Christina Rossetti and Mr. Baker on the Modern Drama. Occasionally the Saturday lectures have been introductory to the iSIon- day evening lectures. This was the case when Professor Knox spoke two consecutive Saturdays on the Japanese and the Chinese. On the Monday following. Rev. George Knox lectured on the ' War in Korea. Thus we gained a clear and comprehensive idea of a matter of immediate interest. Last fall, in the Monday evening course. Dr. Arbuthnot delivered an illustratetl lecture on ' ■ Stratford-on-Avon. Dr. .Vrbuthnot, rector of the 139 cluirch which Sliakcspcarc t ' oniK-rK attiMulcd. liad a tuu- collection of pic- tures, and was thorouf hlv comcisant with his suhjcct. His enthusiastic eloc|ucncc almost made us imagine ourselves in the little En ijlish villaj c, and personally accpiainted with the i reat author. Another illustrated lecture was on llani])ton Institute, In II. H. h risrell. the principal. It was made particularK inteiestiui:; In the singini of a ([uartelte of students from the Institute. Some of om- other distinguished speakers were Prof. Francis Stoddard, Mr. Mabie, Professor Cross, President Frost, and Prof. II. Morse Stephens. The names of these great scholars are sufficient to indicate the variety and excellence of their lectures, and the pleasure and profit of their audience. Such opportunities us these supplement our studies in adding to our breadth and culture, and give a deeper interest in the more active life in which we all hope to engage in the near future. 140 Wellesley (Concerts. Sweet, sweet, sweet, O Pan, Piercing sweet by the river! Blinding sweet, O great god Pan ! The sun on the hill forgot to die. And the lilies revived, and the dragon fly Came back, to dream on the river. TiiK charm of inusii; has c lt l ccn the same. From the time when the sun stopped to listen, and the HHes awaked to hear Pan as he phiyed his reed flute, even down to the present day, it has held the same power to rest and inspire tlie listener. It is no wonder, therefore, that the Monday evening concerts at Welles- lev are looked forward to with the orreatest pleasure ; for, though we may not have Pan to plav for us, we can say with truthfulness that we do have the opportunity of listening to the most talented performers of the day. If we look into the Chapel on a Monday evening during a concert, — no, what a mistake ! We must go at the beginning and stay until the end, or else not go at all — if, then, we go to a concert some Monday e en- ino-, we shall see a sight to delight the eyes. The Chapel is a mass of color, made by the gav, light evening gowns, which are only set off by the conventional ' ' swallowtails of the youths who have ventured to share our treat with us. Every seat is occupied, and the girls are almost inva- rialdy enjoving the music, though a few are occasionally troubled with so short a memory that they recollect only that speech is silver, and w ith sucli music for an accompaniment, it must certainly be solid ' . It is a cry per- sistent talker, however, who can long endure the re])roving glances of those who sit near them. Do you ask what is the character of these concerts. It is varied. On looking over the programmes, we Hnd that we have enjoyed chamber music, piano, organ, harp, and song recitals. We ha e heard some of the [grandest compositions for the piano finely interpreted by both Baer- mann and Busoni. We have spent delightful evenings listening to Perabo and ' Wulf Fries, the Beethoven Club of lioston, and the Adamowski (Quartette. Those of us who heard them will not soon forget their fine rendering of Schubert ' s tender serenade. Our organ has been made to speak to us by George Whitney and Henry Dunham, while the beauties of four-part songs have been exquisitely revealed by the Beacon Male 141 Qiiartette. Nor can we miss nu ' iitioii of tlic inspiriiiL; ' hour c sjifnt listcnino- to Max Ilcinriche ' s raiul Noicc. But perhaps the concert of which we. as American college i irls. were the proudest, was the piano recital iijivcn ns by Mrs. Beach ; given by her in a doulile sense, for not only (lid she herself play, but the whole programme was entirely made up from her own compositions. Such. then, are tlie concerts provided us by the untiring efforts of Pro- fessor Hill. or do we forget the pleasure freely given us by members of our ow n Musical Faculty, and the songs of our own girls in the IJeetho- ven Society and the Glee Club. With such concerts as these to look forward to, with such music floating in our ears, is it any wonder that Velleslev life is bright ? 142 RT (Collections. WeLLESLEY f|RT THROUGH IjaRVaRL) YES. (With apologies to Mk. tJEORGE 15aker. ) SCENE : a ROOM IN HOL WORTHY. Well, old chap, 1 think I told you That a Welleslev girl I know Asked me out to call. Accepted. ' ' Why, of course, was charmed to go. Take the barge, she wrote; ' ' ' twill bring you To the College. Couldn ' t find Any sign of lake or barges, — Saw a stage, — jumped on liehind. Reached the Hall with twenty others (Haryard men or Techs, perhaps) ; Followed them inside the doorway. Wondering where to put my yraps. • Just the thing I off in one corner vStood a bust, — Scott. ' ' Burns. ' ' Carlyle. ' ' What a joke to dress the duffer In my coat and best Knox tile. But my joke was not so funny ' hen I saw four other men, Thinking they were beastly cleyer, Start to do the same. Just then Heard a yoice behind me saying, So you found your way from town. There she stood, a stunning Senior, Blue eyes, glasses, cap and gown. Shall I show you round the building. Qiiite the thing, you know, to see All the Wellesley tine-art treasures. Charmed, of course! (who wouldn ' t be With a girl like that to show them.-) Here ' s a statue that we call ' Vellesle - Student Cramming P r(nyning. ' ' Spirit of Domestic Hall ' Mr George A. Baker, author of Point Lace and Diamonds. This one, leaning on a dozen Bntter dishes neatlv piled. Here ' s another near the stair a . ' Spoil the Rod and .Spare the Child. ' Hardlv heard hat she vas sa ini ' As I watched the ringlets hrown From heneath her ea]) eseaping, — She ' s a tjueen in cap and gown 1 Here ' s a statue of Diana. Said mv guide in aceents sweet ; Always costs us half a dollar When we hreak her stag ' s forefeet. Then again 1 fell to thinking Of that cap and nut-hrown hair As we sauntered past the parlor. Through the hall, and up the stair ; Stood before a Milo Venus, Absent-mindedlv I sav, If you chance to break her arms off How much do vou have to pay.- I have one thing more to show you, Said my guide ; the best comes last You must see our dear ' Backwoodsman ' ; Here it is. And then we passed Out of doors into the moonlight; And we found it just the place For a quiet, nice flirtation. Seated at the statue ' s base. And we found it all so charming That we stayed until the cry, All aboard I You go now ; So glad that you came I Good-bve I ' Did I go again ? you ask me. Yes, next Monday I went out ; Found her with another caller, — She was sh(jwing him about. So that ends my ' ellesley romance, But one thing I wish I knew, One thing only, that is, d i she Show u ' m the Backwoodsman too . ' ' 144 T5ut those portions of our art collection already referred to, and with Avhich every one is more or less familiar, are not our only wealth. There are others in College Hall less noticed, but (|uitc as valuable. .Scattered ixbout in all the more frequented places, and hidden as well in obscure corners, are works of art representing- in value many thousands of dollars, iuu exidencing the careful forethought and excellent taste of our generous friend, Mr. Durant. Prominentlv placed near the north entrance is Gifford ' s ' Gibraltar, remarkable for the Itoldness and strength of the execution ; and on the oj)- posite side of the corridor is Qiiartley ' s ' ■ ' • Close of a Stormy Day, ex- celling in artistic light effects. In the south corridor, hrst floor, we find two ■originals, ' ' The Cinua ' an Sibvl, l v Vedder, and a pencil drawing of a child learning its flrst lesson from The Young Teacher, by Frere. The third floor center is devoted to things German. Here are busts of Schiller. Goethe, and other German writers, and a alu;dile collection of photographs illustrative of German literature. But of all the pictures in College tiall. perhaps the most popular is Zwengauer ' s ' • vSummer Twilight, which hangs at the foot of the west stairs in the flrst floor center. The quiet of the scene and its soft, harmo- nious coloring form a restful contrast to the rush and hurrv of our busy AVellesley life. Besides the scattered treasures of College Hall, the Art Building holds a -collection still more worthy of mention. In the Art Gallery in the vStetson collection, numbering sixty-flve oil paintings, are many famous pictures liy modern artists. First among these rank vShreyer ' s skillfully executed ■ ' Bedouin Chief and Dupre ' s Harvesters ' Repast. Next are the truthful and pleasing landscapes of Jones and Hilliard, and a still-life Study of Books and Flowers, by Emil Carlsen, a representative of the modern broad school. The latest addition made to the collection is The Garden Party, bv vStetson, rich in coloring, with a most peculiar study of light effects. The gallerv contains also the Jarvais collection of laces and embroideries, many of them almost priceless. In the east gallery of the Art Building are, in addition to statues, busts, and casts, thirtv-two copies of ancient armor and weapons from the collec- tion of Count Stolberg of Ilsenberg. The Art Librarv is rich in the possession of about fifteen hundred un- mounted photographs. This is supplemented by Professor Denio ' s private ■collection, numbering as many more, and also open to students in History of Art courses. Such are a few of the art treasures which win for us the name of •• Col- lege Beautiful. 145 7hE LlBRaRY. WiiKX our friends visit us at college one of the places to which we take- them first, and which we show them with most pride, is the library. Before entering we pause for a moment at the door, in order that they may gain a general view of the room. As we stand here, — probably obstruct- ing the passage of manv persons who very inconsiderately desire to enter at just that moment, — we call the attention of our guests to the general plan of the room. We ask them to notice its proportions: the center, with its three long tal)les; the alcoves opening from it, with the galleries above.. We speak with pride of the number of magazines to which we have access and of the valuable books which the library contains. The large Dutch cabinet comes in for a share of our praise, as it stands boldly at the head of the History Alcove, meekly allowing its back to be used as a bulletin board,, while proudlv displaying to the public the carving on its front. We then tm-n to the pictures of noted men and to the valuable manuscripts which hang at intervals on the wall. This done, we have only to speak in a gen- eral way of the resources of the library and of the library fund, and we are readv to enter. We do this with hesitation ; for how can we feel certain that our guests w ill not show more curiosity than we like, and instead of being satisfied with what is told them, insist on asking questions, for the answering of which our general knowledge is not adequate? If they are old friends, w e may perhaps avoid such an embarrassing situation by casually remarking; 146 that it is one of the rules that there shall be no talkinfj in the library. But if our guests are at all observing we fear to speak thus, lest we shall call forth a comment similar to that made by a visitor who exclaimed under like circumstances : Why, I thought you girls had to keep all the rules 1 ]?ut notliing seems to happen when nou break this one. As we pass down the room our comments differ according to our class rank. If Freshmen, we shall probably ignore all subjects pertaining to libraries, and either talk of indifferent matters or sunnnon some friend whom we chance to see and introduce her on the spot, — much to the editication of those studying in the vicinity. If we are Sophomores, the Literature or History table will probably seem the centre of attraction. To the Junior, there is nothing in the whole room which nearly approaches in interest either the Century Dictionary or Poole ' s Index, and nothing else can be spoken of when in their awe-inspiring presence. The .Senior, ha •ing passed through all of these stages, will give a more extended and impartial account, but even she may be bound by limitations. Such comments on our favorite portions of the room occupy the time until we reach the door again. There we stop and call attention to one picture which all know, even if the faces of many other of the noted men are not familiar. For wdio of us does not recognize the kind, friendly face of Professor Horsford, as it looks down upon us from the wall. So we pause for a moment and tell how, during his lifetime, he was ever kind and thoughtful of us, aiding especially in that department so indispensable to our work, the library. Then, with our guests, we pass out of the room to other parts of the buildino-. 147 Scientific (Collections. It has been found that tlie atmosphere of Velleslev is es])ecially adapted for the making- of scientific collections. So iml ned with the spirit of enthusiasm do the i irls liecome, that it is a ery rare occurrence to tind a ' ' irl who has not made a collection of some sort. There are nearly as many phases of this holj] v, and as many means of gaining the sought-for prizes as there are students. The collection of class and so- ciety dues is a fayorite occupation vith a good many. The best method for attaining success in this line has not yet been decided upon, though careful experiments and inyestigations are constantly being carried on, and it is hoped one thoroughly scientilic will l e discoyered soon. As soon as the results from these experiments haye been collected and tabulated, it is probable that a course of training for this work will be offered. The collection of articles for the sewing guild, missionary l)oxes, and Christmas gifts for charitable institutions, occupies many students, wdio haye found it yeiy absorbing work. For complete success a course in Psy- chology is necessary for the collector, that she may have a deep insight into the mind of the subject, and determine the proper hour and method of attack. Great skill and ingenuity is also recjuired in preyenting the escape of the prizes when once they are captured. Still other students are engaged in the collecting of odd manuscripts, plates, spoons, and horseshoe nails. These specimens are carefully pre- seryed, mounted, and indexed ; they will prol)ably prove of great value to future generations in studying the customs and laws of the primitive college girl. It has been suggested that copies of them be engraved, and published under the title of iMemoralMlia. For the benefit of students who do not care to make these themselves, the College has provided several aluable collections in different branches. In the various cases scattered about the corriders may be fountl many extremely ancient and rare articles. A full line of samples of dress goods, as well as needlecases and workbaskets, all gathered from different ciuar- ters of the globe, are displayed for the benefit of the Seniors, while l eauti- ful and exquisite Oriental dolls are kept on view for the Freshmen, but are carefully guarded by glass cases. Students in either History or Zo( ' )logy w ill be interested to know that we have in our possession the Raven mentioned in the Bible. In spite of its anticjuitv, it is in a very good state of preservation. Scholars in the 148 l)( t;iny Department have also a rare treasure in a dish of husks left over from the Prodi -al Son ' s dinner. For the sake of those interested in Geolo y, Mineralogy, and Chem- istry, an ancient and valuable collection of dust is preserved in nearly all the cases. Some are set aside for this purpose onl -.

' ii r iKurowiiiy; meniories the crv word calls up I How vcll wo all iL ' iiK ' inhcr our firm resolutions, on Ianuar first, to keej) a strict cash account, and he economical in our expenditures I How painfully well we rememher the slow hut steady hreakiny- down of our ])raiseworthy plans, and the gradual creeping- in. one after anotlier. of our pet extrayagances. We hegin to go to the restaurant on roast heef and hoiled potato nights. We fail to get past liuyler ' s without a little call. We find our flo er hill getting larger and larger, and the latest and most attractive noyel repos- ing on oin- hooksheh ' es. Ve turn to our late economical system only to find our idols clay. Economy, did we say. ' ••Economy. th - name is fraud. Thou art the going without something ye do yant in case we should sometime yant something ye prohahly yon ' t yant. We deny ourselyes priyate reference books, or a ticket to some particularly fine symphou} ' , and discoyer a month later that the money we might haye spent then has gone — irreyocably gone — to a worse, a much worse, place. We go on further to illustrate the doctrine hy contenting ourselyes with buying an inexpensiye article of dress at a tach . unreliable firm, to notice later a sale of the yery things we wanted at reduced prices in a well-known store. We lunch at a side-street restaurant in town, making oursehes ill there])y. and finalh come to realize with ' an Bibber, that • ' economizing may he all yer - well if nu know how to do it. Init if )U don ' t it is much safer to lea e it alone. So. then, ye plunge madlv ahead, regardless of conscience or prudence, while yisions of unpaid bills float sadly about in our dreams, and spectres of red-faced caterers and dunning dressmakers dance mockingly about our sleepless couch, and that immortal trio, Bailey, Parritt and Tailby. chase away with great effectiyeness the timch dew of sleep, and ye open our eyes on a day which is yet a sterner reality. We go on in silence when- ever we meet those awful treasures, vSocietv, Class, and Christian Associa- tion ; factotums make life cease to be woith liying; and as for College Settlement dues. laundr hills, and general lack of liookstore supplies — like the poor, the al va s are with us. We reflect with regret on the shortness of time since we wrote home foi a check, and try to gain some hollo y comfort out of those old saws, •• the root of e il, antl the bless- ings that mone cannot hu . 192 Some day, perchance, we open the Colles e Calendar, and our eve ialls on the article ' ' Expenses, and we smile a mournful smile as we murmur tliat All the world ' s a fleeting show; There ' s nothini f true but heaven. We read : — Board . Tuition Total . $300.00 150.00 $3=io.oo Sadly we close the book, and think how wealtln we ' d get h - cut- ting, if time were only money, anil then proceed to fi ' itter awa the golden moments in planning what we ' ll do when we are rich. 193 ( EEDS OF THE ( OLLEGE. Till-: attention of all who aj ipreciatc the influence of ultra refined and completely educated women, the society of youthful maidens who are about to dazzle the worUl as Mushin j dcbittaiitcs uncontaminated hy the harmful influences found in coetlucational colleges, or, again the true worth of real painstaking, deserving, long-haired grinds, — the attention of such, we say, is called to the immediate needs of Wellesley College. The College is now established on such a firm basis that it can with confidence (but not hopefulness) appeal to the public for aid. We sit like Patience on a mon- ument, smiling through our grief, and see the hoarded wealth of generations poured into the gilded, overflowing coffers of our brother colleges, while we stand and stretch out our hands only to receive the scornful answer, Where is that ten cents I gave you yesterday? O ve gav young millionaires, come, lead to the altar of Hymen these blushing roses fast withering on their stems, or ye theological students, come snatch unto yourselves these priceless treasures, these ministers ' wives in embryo, and then die — O, die soon, and let us give unto our Alma Mater the ' ' widow ' s mite, _ — that novelty in Wellesley phraseology (for we seldom get so far as widows) . For silent arguments in our favor we refer our readers to our advanced courses of study, our standards of character, refinement, and usefulness, and the watchful care of the student ' s health. We refer you to the hundreds of Wellesley students, equipped with spec- tacles and slip sheet notebooks, who are shedding the light of their phe- nomenal learning upon the poor, unenlightened world in general, and inmates of preparatory schools in particular. We refer to the multitude of missionaries ' waves who are conversing in Greek and Hebrew with the far- off heathen upon the subject of Christian evidences, or instilling ideas of dress reform into the breasts of their dark-skinned, scantily clothed sisters. And now to close this necessarily long, but, w e trust, perfectly convincing recital of our deserts and merits, we, the student body, would state concisely just w hat are the pressing needs of the College. The fact that all these calls could not be met by the public, however charitable, need not be in the least discouraging, for all those to be removed by public opinion or by the efforts of the girls themselves, will doulitless be at once responded to. I. Unrestricted funds for defraying general expenses, as for example : — a. Purchase of red ink for the Faculty. b. Purchase of fountain pens, matches, note paper and (jerinan text- books. c. Payment of term bills. 194 3. Endowment of the presidency and professorships. We trnst tliis endowment will be of snch a size that the professors will be able to provide themselves with clerks and t pewriters, also ladies ' maids and errand girls, who shall sew on dress braids, rnn errands, keep the roll book and get the mail, and thus relieve the domestic girls to a slight extent. 3. A college chapel, with windows so arranged that the light mav shine directlv in the eves, ventilation of such perfection that two girls instead of one mav faint each Sunday, and seats so close together that none can rise without receix ing painful injurv from the seats in front. Tliis is to l)e used as well for a concert or lecture hall, an examination or a recitation room. 4. Two additional cottages with tliin walls, tliat the sound from any room mdx ha c no difficultv in penetrating to the others. . A gvnniasium. See our chronic invalids, pale, wasted forms, in the Senior class. 6. A scientific building. This need, however, we are so glad to sav, is past, for our new ' Science Hall leaves absolutelv nothing to be desired in beautv, stvle of structure, or usefulness. 7. An astronomical observatory, that the south corridor, second floor, need no longer be used for such purposes. 5. Endowment of the School of Music, together with an organ siu - rounded bv padded w ' alls. 9. A pound of gold in the form of silence at Monday evening concerts. 10. An electric bell, which shall ring in all houses within ten minutes of the same time. 11. Pastry desserts, — the banana crop must be by this time well-nigh exhausted. 12. More holidavs, — that we mav learn to make proper use of them. 13. Thorough knowledge of hvpnoti sm, that the College, since all other means have failed, may coerce, compel, oblige the B. A. Railroad to errant suburban rates. AVas it hypnotism ? PORMS OF gEQUESTS. Contrary to the usual modest custom of the Wellesley Calendar, the fo1hnvi)io- forms of bequests are filed in zv th examples of appro- priate i ' fts to the College, that would-iw benefactors may jwt be at a loss to knoxv hozv to expend their noncy most zc sely : — g z-e and bequeath to the Class of ' Qj of Wellesley College the sum of one hundred thousand dollars, to be appropriated by them for the beneft of the College i? such niainicr as they shall dee ost sef il, thus assur g to the College a zc se and i zselfsh expe dit ire of the s zn . I giz ' e and bequeath to the Tritstees of Wellesley College th e sutn of forty tho7isand dollars, to be safely invested by them, a id called the ' ' Students ' Woman ' s Plights Fund. ' The interest shall be applied, on the demand of a majority of the stude ts, to a y object they may deem worthy; as. for example: — {I.) The purchase of teaspoo s for the lai i Building dining room. (2.) The purchase of duplicate copies of reference books. (J. ) The purchase of one hundred Jersey cozvs, that the abolish- ment of the use of condensed milk may be at once complete and everlasting. I i ivc and bequeath to the coming -ace of Wellesley ites the sacred, and pri zed -abovc-al I -ot he r . gift of time. It shall be inexhaustible, though at the constant command of eve y student. At her slightest zcish one period may be lengthened into tzvo, each day into three, and yet the coming vacations shall not be delayed, or the hours of recitation lengthened. By this process the race of hurried., cross, dyspeptic Seniors shall disappear off the face of the earth, and give zvay to a set of charming, dignified, zvell- an iered ca ididates for the B.A. deo-ree. 196 ( aNDmaTEs FOR Degrees PECmL TUDENTS, Fjnowtedge comes, bat wisdom lingers. 1 98 ( aNDmaTES FOR gECONt) DEGREES, Abbe, Elizabeth F., Wellesley, ' 88 Barker.

To Till-: Ma a(;kk ok tiik , . . Tkaciieks ' Agency. Dear Sir : — In your circular you advise those registering with you to w rite von a letter al)out their studies, the work they wish to undertake, and any personal facts of interest. Although it is contrary to my usual custom, I ha e de- cided in this case to take the proffered advice. T will speak first of my studies. I have taken onlv one degree, that of H.A., and 1 wish to B.A. teacher as soon as possil)le. In my work here I have generally been successful. 1 jxissed with honors the course recently introduced at Wellesley, New Curriculum, and hv its inspiration have ac- complished a social reform, making all of one degree. As a preliminarv to this course I have taken one in argumentation, to assist in proving sub- jects which have never before been introduced to each other, allied. I ' nder this general-major course I have studied several minor branches which re- quired scientific experiment and research. Among these I might mention Chemistry, in which I performed a famous original experiment illustrating the principles of comlnistion. The apparatus necessary consisted chiefiy in old forensics, extra dry, which I spent the year in collecting. In Botany, I confess, my experiments were not so successful. I almost made a complete failure in the sul)ject ; but I retrieved myself by the alacrity and zeal with which I accepted the course in Junior privileges offered for the first time to me. I certainly tried to take advantage of all the opportunities afforded by this course. In the other branches of study I trust you will find my record equally satisfactory. During these years I have not been without opportunities for teaching, so that I am not inexperienced. Every year such large companies of chil- dren come here knowing so little that every one is needed to teach them, and I have not been slow in assuming my share of this burden. The subjects which I have most often taught are Traditional llistorv. Legendary Lore, Etiquette, and the Principles of Law and Order. Although I am w illing to continue teaching these branches, I would prefer to undertake something untried, such as (Questions of Home Rule and Domestic Science. In closing, I will give you a few personal facts which are suggested by your circular. First, I am not wedded,— even to mv work. — but shall be ready for an engagement in September. As to my nuisical ability, I acknowledge that I can sing, but only operatic music. Lastly, you ask age. Now% whereas many persons foolishly refuse to answer such tions, 1 am proud to ackiunvledge that I am, and alwavs will be, m - (lues- truly, ' 9: , - W J h 0k , tfi% ' ' ' The Old paMiLmR pacES.

Till-: lioard ot wi li to make public in this Cak-iular the arioiis charms and achanta cs of Xincty-Six. She is a rctornicr a moni - re- forniers, and a livinu: rcpresentalion of the cvohition of an an cl. Less fortunate Itein s should he encoura jfed to join her. for with her alone is health, and wealth, and wistloni, and beauty, and ]:)henonienal ' goodness. Tier devotion to law and order is an intensely absorbinj subject; but more remarkal)le still is her reduction of methodics to the ideal perfection of an exact science. It ma be well, however, lo let Xinety-vSix speak for herself, and so we append a list of answers to some cinestions which recenth ' appeared on her bulletin board concerning- her famous ei -ht-honr svstem. 1. Mathematics has tauj ht me that there are twenty-four hours in a solar day, and that twenty-four is exactly di isible by ei ;ht ; so, as far as mathematics go,t I have succeeded in securin ei ht hours for work, eight for recreation, eight for sleep. In reality, though, 1 secure the equivalent of ten hours for sleep ; for an hour before twelve is eipial to two after twelve, and I always go to sleep at ten. 2. Of the portion given up to recreation, the time spent in eating, at least two hours, is reallv recreation, for it is the refreshment of spirit after toil; the time spent in domestic work, one hour, comes under the same head, for it is a pas-time; the time given to Junior teas, one hour dailw — for we support all established customs of the land, — is amusement, and as our society emblems are our playthings,! anything we do in connection with them must be sport. 3. The remaining recreation time, after all the ten minutes between periods are counted out as well, is gi en to out-of-door exercise. It is. of course, at least an hour, for the law of the land demands it. 4. Any difficulties are wholh attributed to the con ditions of our col- lege life, for Xinetv-vSix never has any flaws in her theories, nor does she e er fail. 5. I am not overworked; a cheerful heart and a willing hand, together with an easv conscience, make all tasks light. 6. The changes which I most would like to see effected are : ( i ) The canonization of Ninety-Six. (2) Her illustrious example followed by all the classes which are here at present, and which will be here in the future. (3) The forensic course made a two or three period elective, instead of a one period required; but I do not mean to complain of the work. (4) The annual publication of the Leciknoa brought to a timel} ' end.|| The reader may substitute liere trustees, examiners, advisers, healtli, Legenda, or anything else, as there can be but one opinion of Ninet)-Six. tThat mathematics go pretty far, may be seen by reference to that department in this issue of the Calendar.

Each page of the hook tells in a i ' ew graphic words an interesting tale. On the first is the satisf ing information that the majority of her little candy-dates survived the ravenous appetite of the devouring spirit of the institution, and hecame members of the Fresh- man Class. Next to this is her card in Mathematics, being Course I. as laid down on page 92 of this Calendar. In this course she received special instruction in addition, for she counts nearly two hundred. We think also that she had a review of loss and gain, — a subject which generall - comes in the preparatory course ; for on a memorable day in June she lost a spade, and gained a rather unenyiable reputation. Then comes her card in Bot- any I., suggesting her choice of a special tree and Hower. It also recalls to mind her discovery that there is a tissue-paper variety of the daffodil which blossoms profusely in June and September. The fourth card marks the successful issue of her hrst course in History, — the history of a barbaric gypsy tribe who settled on the shores of Waban, and reached a fairly high degree of ciyilization and cultivation. The last card is the result of her efforts in English ; in this course she changed her foreign tongue for the dialect of the region. There should be one more page to the little book, but, alas ! she chose for her elective Athletics, and made such a complete failure in this VA that she has only a condition note to show for her effort. This is carefully bound into the l)ook, that she ma - not forget what she has still to accomplish. 227 Tree . . Pine. rio .er . Daffodil. Colors . . Oli e Green and (lold.

Note. — Retain f iis admission card tliroiigh the first semester ] present it at the first recitation in each subject, and x.henever you request a cfiange of programme. It has been noticed during the past year that many have been forced to leave on account of failure in this course. The large number of hours devoted weekly to this subject simplv mean that the student may expect a recitation or an examination at any time. t Failure in this subject is of great inconvenience to the upper classes, as well as to the student in the course. The work required being difficult , no discouragement should be felt if by the middle of the second semester the subject is not thoroughly mastered. X Ninety-Six is ready and willing to tutor students who fail in this course. §This course seems to be particularly popular as an elective. The number of hours is limited only by the ingenuity and ability of the student. Supreme excellence in this course is liable, however, to cause complete failure in the required course of Health and Hygiene. II This subject treats of the cultivation of green living things, and it has been thought advisable to offer it among the Freshman electives, as of advantage in the perfect de- velopment and cultivation of self. 235 Tree . . v | i ucc. riov.cr .

Althonj h slie was but a tinv tliinfj she was useful rather than ornamental, for the lart er, full-grown representatives of this family, in their study of pedagogics and psvchologv, needed a laboratory of babies. Thus the little specimen became the subject of many interesting experiments. Her first mental experience after her arrival was noted ; it was but a confused babble of many sensations, in hich were mingleil many girls, a chaos of sounds, comprising every possible key of the human voice, the clang of bells, and the clatter of dishes, and, over- powering all, a wild rushing. This did not last long, for soon one sensa- tion was accentuated above the others by pleasure ; she knew that she was noticed, and she was delighted. Next the untiring students offered colors to her to see if she would recognize them ; she always knew blue whether the blue object was a day, a fellow-specimen, or herself. Rose color or red she was equally quick in appreciating and naming. ]Manv days and many experiences were necessary, however, before she could realize when a thing was green and name it correctly. Then the scientific members of the family observed her iirst act of association, but it is not I ' ecorded whether it was with a Sophomore, a Junior, or a Senior ; the note is made, however, that early in her life she associated with all the other members of the family. That she might not weary of their experiments and disappoint their observations, the workers in this laboratory taught her nurser - songs and pla s. The dittv which they most often sung to her was. — Ninety-nine green babies have come to College Hall. She often looked grie ed when they sang it, however, and did not seem to appreciate it. Besides this, she was instructed by the development method, so that she might pass through all the stages of the history of the Wellesley specimens, and become in succession a Freshman, a Sophomore, a Junior and a Senior. Before her education had advanced very far. how- ever, she made the discovery of self, as some-body ; and in her delight she gave herself a name.

In answer to a numher of skillful (juestious she ])reseuts interesting statistics, and discusses vexed college (piestious. XI ' T - ' I l•: has alread reached the adxauced age of twentv-one eai s autl six mouths. One oul of her luunher declares herself to be four ears older than when she entered. That rapidly aging iudi idual is perchance the roommate or boon companion of the one Ninety-Five who acknowl- edges herself to have reached the sausage. It is pleasant to observe that by all the members of Ninetv-Five there are recorded no scrimmages or ram- pages. Not a single one, alas, has reached a high average ; but she should not for that reason be thought damaged, for neither is there a single one in her dotag e. The average weight of Xinetv-Five is one hundred twenty-one and one- half pounds. Her average height is five feet four inches. In regard to hei- parentage, it is interesthig to note that one half the fathers are business men and one fourth professional men. The business and profession of some of these worthy gentlemen should be especially mentioned. They range from the father who ' ' turns earth inside out. presumably a road-digger, to the father who is a - ' jack of all trades, and the father whose profession is never mentioned outside the famih. An extract from a Xinet -Five ' s letter written before entering college. explains her reasons for doing so: ' I go to college to accpiire culture and breadth; to gain general information on all subjects, and to be thoroughly proficient and accurate in one particular branch. I believe in the emanci- pation of women, etc., etc. This student came tt) Wellesley because she had read the Calendar.

Twenty-three per cent of her members were the valedictorians of their classes, ten per cent were presidents, nine per cent were vice presidents, and there were simply any nnmber of salutatorians, historians, and poets. One modest girl states: ■ Yes, I was valedictorian of my class. I was also class presi- dent, vice president, secretary and treasnrer, and class orator. (I forgot to mention that I stndied under a private tutor). In fact, it appears that all w ho did not hold class offices did not because the classes to wdiich they be- louired did not orcjani .e.

Fifty-four per cent think the Senior vear the pleasantest, twenty-two per cent the Junior, seventeen per cent the Sophomore, seven per cent the Freshman. Forty-five per cent con- sider the Freshman year the most disagreeable, twenty-four per cent the Junior, twenty per cent the Sophomore, eleven per cent the Senior. P iftv-four per cent think the Sophomore the easiest year, twenty-six per cent the .Senior, eighteen per cent the Freshman, two per cent the Junior. Seventy-eight per cent think the Junior the hardest year, nine per cent the Freshman, eight per cent the Senior, five per cent the Soi)homore.

The answers to the question, • Of what have you made a specialty in colles e? were also varied. 1 wo answers were conspicuous l)v their raritv, — sleepiuii; and skinniui throuii li. i KTV-FiVE is made up of all sorts and conditions. To the sorted varietv. ahout fortv per cent hcloui ; to the conditioned, the remaining sixtv per cent. There are, us the youthful writer says, ' • a great manv different kinds of conditions, too numerous to mention ; and under all these Xinetv-Five has suffered, — under a condition of good health, of hun- ger, of sleepiness, of collapse. One girl after escaping, as she supposed, without a condition from her Freshman midyears, found laid upon her a condition of ecstatic bliss. Another student suffers from the grievous con- ditions under which we live. But Xinetv-Five is neither exalted nor cast down by her fate, for she knows that ' • honor and shame from no condi- tion rise. There is some difference of opinion as to what h.as been the most valu- able study pursued. One thinks Botanv. l ecause it has taught her to tell a s xamore from a maple ; another thinks Mathematics, because it is more to the point : a tliird thinks Junior Rhetoric, because it lias done awav with car fares bv teaching her to express herself. The general sentiment of the class is expressed against grinding, except for scissors, very dull axes, skates, coffee, and other persons. One excel- lent argument is given in its fa ()r. The Legexda has ne er lieen a suc- cess since grinds were forludden. XiNKTV-FiVE does not need grinding. She is harp enough now to cut recitations without it. vSometimes the cutting has been unintentional, as in the case of the girl who took the elexator and reached the class room just as the period closed. When she does not cut tlie recitation, Xinety-Five can flunk fullv. though perhaps not gracefullv. 32 The u)cUv:.sle f Legenda. ISAAC B. PUTTER, Ciiiet Consul N. Y. State L. A.

You are correct in supposing that I wished you to act for me and in my interests, as if you were the head of the school. The time was so short that 1 could not well do otherwise; and allow me ' to add that 1 did so with entire confidence in the e.xcellence of your judgment. Your e.xperience has been such that I felt perfectly safe in putting the responsibility on you. I believe that there are other e.xcellent teachers ' bureaus, but I didnot feel like putting a matter of so much importance to me wholly in the hands of any other. If I had insisted on seeing the candidate or corresponding with him, 1 might have lost the oppor- tunit - to engage the gentleman whom you have selected, and been forced to take an inferior teacher. I e.xpect Mr. M — ' s work will prove vour judgment of him correct. His estimate of himself makes him strong where I am weak, and that is what Iwant. Yours respectfully, „,,, x, NORWALK, CONN. E. H. WILSON. Dr Orcutt ' . I desire to e. press to you the gratitude of our committee for your success in selecting and engaging the four teachers you have sent us. Your judgment is unerring; each teacher eminently fills the requirement. We made no mistake in placing the matter carte blanche— in your hands ; and for the success of the past we shall only be too elad to ask your assistance in the future, assured that your selections will not disappoint us. Cordially yours, C. C. CUNDALL, M. D., FAIRHAViiN, Mass., Sept. 10, 1894. Chairman S. C. ANOTHER CALL. L We have had twenty-four such calls this season.] Dr Orcutt You see I come again for another teacher, which proves conclusively that we are pleased and satisfied with the others you sent us. All four of them are e.xceptionally good, and doing work worthy of the commen- dation thev rece ' ive from both the Superintendent and the committee. I enclose signed contract for another teacher. Engage the teacher you are satisfied with for me. and fill the name blank, and I shall then know just the teacher I want is coming. ,,K,r A, . . r Cordially yours, C. C. CUNDALL, M.

I have since purchased a large bottle, and I will say that your preparation is the best I have ever used for softening and keeping the skin in proper condition, and it is incomparably the best application for the soft and delicate skin of children, so liable to chap and roughen from exposure to the wind, or from using hard water for bathing.
