Ah Love! could you and I with Him conspire T 0 grasp this sorry scheme of things entire, Would we not shatter it to bits-and then Remould it nearer to the H eart,s Desire! Myself when young did eagerly frequent Doctor and Saint, and heard great argument About it and about, but evermore Came out by the same door where in I went. And fear not lest Exisfence closing your Account, and mine, should know the like no more, The Eternal Stiki from that Bowl has poured Millions of Bubbles like us, and will pour. Come, fill the Cup, and in the fire of Spring Your Winter-garment of Repentance fling, The Bird of Time has but a little way To flutter-and the Bird is on the Wing. But if in rain, down on the stubborn floor ' Of Earth, and up to H eav ,n's unopening Door You gaze TO-DA Y, while You are You-how then T O-M OBBOW, when You shall be You no more?

The Worldly Hope men set their Hearts upon Turns Ashes+or it prospersg and anon, Like Snow upon the Desert,s dusty Face, Lighting a little hour or two-was gone. The Ball no question makes of Ayes and Noes, But Here or There as strikes the Player goes, The Difoving Finger writes, anal, having writ, Moves on,' nor all your Piety nor Wit Shall lure, it back to cancel half a Line, Nor all your Tears wash out a Word of it. Waste not your Hour, nor in the vain pursuit Of This and That endeavor and dispute, Better be jocund with the fruigful Grape Than saclden after none, or bitter, Fruit. 18 .Page 59 .Page 63 .Page 89 Page 105 Page 115 Page 132 l 1 .mn ,mn mm, ,.,,,,. ..,,,.

'-in 5 I ss l FUI 2 I l The League . A HIS year for the first time in the history of the League, there .5 , Were published Handbooks of the Student Government rules, regulations, and customs. The responsibility for the observance of regulations is thus placed upon the individual student. A system of individual proctoring on Sunday evenings is being tried out. This is a step toward an absolute honor system, they goal of the Leuaguef Fire drills, in Alumnae Hall, as Well as in Peabody and New Halls, have been frequent, and have been more systematized than in past years. Early in the fall term, Lucile Smith Was elected as song leader. Under her direction, song practices have been held often, either after the regular League meetings, or, in fair Weather, on the steps of Peabody Hall after dinner. As a result, college singing has become more enthusiastic than ever before. In October, application Was made to the Women,s Inter-Col- legiate Association for Student Government to be accepted as a mem- ber. We Were admitted in time to send two delegates, Ethel Sebald, the President of the League, and Sena Sutherland, a Junior, to the annual convention, held this year at Mount Holyoke. 65 l 6 I X 1 1 L, l rirf WTMK M M tml a s I The Young Women's Christian Association HE Young VVomen's Christian Association started on an entirely new basis this year. Its policies were revised and 2512, enlarged so that they- would more closely answer its needs. The local Association has been made to feel its connection with the great international movement. ' This year it was our turn to have an annual member, who serves as a link between the Field Committee and the four Associations at the University of Cincinnati, Miami University, Oxford College, and Western College. Ruth Wenzlick has been this Annual Member. In October, she arranged for a dinner at which the Cabinet members of the other two Associations in Oxford were the guests of the Western Association. After the dinner, there was a Cabinet Council. During the first week of July, the Council of the Federation of Industrial Clubs of West Virginia and Ohio was held at Western. At the same time, nine Western girls were attending the East Central Conference of the Young Women's Christian Association at Eagles mere, Pennsylvania. These girls found the lectures of Harry Emerson Fosdick especially inspiring. The Social Service Committee has had school children from Oxford to enjoy the campus and the gymnasium. Just before Christmas, this Committee superintended the dressing of thirty dolls, which were sent to Miss Julia Trnavsky, to be used in her immigrant work in Cincinnati. In the Association room are held Cabinet meetings and Committee meetings. The walls of the room have been made beautiful by pic- tures, given or lent by the girls. Here, too, is found the Association library, which is from time to time increased by the addition of new books. During the World Fellowship week, prayer meetings were held each day before breakfast, sometimes in Peabody Hall, sometimes in New Hall. Nearly everyevening, another meeting was held. Of these, we found the address of Mr. Leyton Richards on The Heroism of Peacev to be of unusual value and lasting inspiration. In the nation-wide movement of student Young Menis and Young Womenis Christian Associations, we raised one thousand dollars for relief work in prison camps. This sacriice gift, we felt, was of great benefit to ourselves individually, and to our local 'As- sociation.

W. C. A. Reception On Saturday evening of this very week, ,Tis asked to a party you are. Be you laddie or lassie, from the country youall come VVith the hay seed still lodged in your hair. BIAGINE with what feelings each little new girl received the ' quaint rhyme, the very first week of school. It was an in- ! vitation to the Y.lV.C.A. Reception, the Freshmen's first social event at Westerii. By Saturday night, each new girl had been asked to be the part- ner of an old girl. Sometime after dinner, one might have seen jolly country lads escorting fair lassies to the gymnasium. There, all was gaiety. Even the long receiving line failed to frighten the simple couples, who quickly entered into the jollity of the country dance. Stalwart youths and blushing maidens joined in the old square dances, waltzes, Virginia reel, and the modern one-step. When the merry-making was at its heightfan order came forall couples to be seated. After a moment of anticipation, a perfect Pierrot and Pierrette glided onto the floor. Their dance brought forth enthusiastic applause from the audience. Later in the evening, a group of peasant girls in varicolored frocks gave a folk-dance. g Cold lemonade and doughnuts were served to the dancers through- out the evening. When the time for leaving finally came, each little new girl left with the feeling that she was beginning to understand the meaning of the VVestern College Spirit. - -Fvfclelia Duncan 90 H dgmfmf A 1? 3 ...5:::'.. '.. .:.:...:f:? The Sophomore-Senior Dance ordinary occasion would 'have transformed New Hall dining room to a formal reception hall. The tables were gone. Japanese lanterns threw soft lights over the branches of autumn leaves. There was goldenrod on the piano, goldenrod on the mantle,-and cushions on the window-seat! A stray dance- program revealed the secret. The Sophomores, for the Hrst time, were entertaining their Senior sisters. Q Unique favor dances gave the Sophomores an opportunity to garland a favorite Senior or a favored faculty-member. But, in spite of all their newly acquired dignity, the Sophomores' love for pranks soon became evident The lights went out. I rushed a band of iobbeis masked and armed w1th flashlights Screams arose Paitners were separated And the victorious ban d1ts led off thelr prizes an elder sister or a chaperon Electric cloclxs have no heaits The bell rang piomptly at nine for ty five Eclztlz Sawm 91 . fl I 1 7 . . 1 9 9 ' 1 I - - T 1 . . . .

Who s hurt?,' Down the corridor heads appeared, disappeared for a moment, and came forth, a kilmona-ed audience. Moving majestically down the corridor was a most mysterious object, resembling, as nearly as anything, a clothestree on legs. After the first shock, speculation arose. Suddenly a light broke. Just a Freshman dressed up for the Backwards Party! What a difference clothes put on backward can make. At angles the Freshmanls garments hung, drooping in folds where no folds should be, and drawn tight in other places, while the knob of her hair on her forehead protruded before her like a horn. K Other monsters appeared, amidst much fun and jesting. The Seniors, remem- bering the days when they had loved to dress up, patted the children on the head. The Sophomores, busily arranging for a grown-up party,'scarce noticed the young- sters. But the Juniors, grasping their little sisters by the hands, hustled them away to an evening of fun. - Though they danced at first, they soon deserted this amusement for the heavier program of the evening. For the second time in their history, the Class of 1918 presented Folio and Etiquette. Never did stage experts produce greater effect out of simpler material. Two Juniors, labelled Cnr and tain, stood with their backs towards us in the center of the floor to cut from our View the busy stage. As the curtain rose C Cur and tain stepped haltingly apartj, we looked upon a hitherto invisible stage, a forest scene. Two more Juniors, kept erect by brooms down their backs, upheld the reputation of trees. Frotm their boughs hung apples, oranges and bananas. Winding his way through the forest came our hero, Folio, riding his saw-horse, and singing in a quavering voice his undying love for the fair Etiquette. To his amorous greetings, Etiquette responded in her clear, strong bass. So through many adventures they wandered, imprisoned by the gloating villain, Spaghetti, and rescued by the lovely Titanic and her flock, until at last Cnr and tain hitched their way across the floor, and concealed from view a bloody stage on which the principals lay dead. ' I Only hot wieners and buns could satisfy such performers and their audience. Munching their hot-dogs, big sisters and little fell into the Grand March, the last number on the program. ' - Although the Freshmen had had their party, no one could blame them for later seeking the ice-cream freezer in the kitchen. As the nine forty-five bell rang, two Freshmen sat perched on a window-sill of the New Hall dining room, gazing in on the scene of music, soft lights and rhythm, and consuming with a sigh the last mouthful. First little Freshman: Isn't it beautiful? '7 Second little Freshman: Yes, but aren't you glad you 're not grown up yet? - -Katherine Bain ydrseiff slam of the door.

Each girl must enjoy every minute of it. IXFQV!-if - s - Promptly at ten o clock, the Freshmen assembled ln the Agora room ' Every loyal daughter knew that in the big box in the corner was concealed her first college secret, her colors of military blue and gold. Reverently, she was decorated with the insignia of classhood. Every Freshman, as she marched with her fellows from Agora, down the stair-way, through the corridor and into the chapel amidst the clapping of hands and the singing of the League song, was conscious of a flutter under her gay ribbons. 1 Mr. Franklin B. Pearson, the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, who spoke in the chapel services, made each girl able to build up her ideal world as he built his up, in vivid language, before us. Tucked away in every Fresh- man memory is a kindly feeling for Mr. Pearson. As luncheon was to be served in the beech-woods, a hungry crowd soon as- sembled in the gymnasium. Faculty members, guests, and classes in the order of their rank, singing the new song. We're the' girls from Western College Who are gaily marching by, ' moved to the favorite spot for picnics. Sandwiches, baked beans, cake, coffee and other good things were served by members of the faculty in cafeteria style. With renewed vigor, everyone returned to the gymnasium for the climax of the day. The Freshman stunt! What would it be? Suddenly, a mass of gold and blue hats, each one with a girl under it who carried a hoe, a rake, a shovel, or some other garden instrument, entered with a rush. These garden maids were followed by garden boys pushing nine wheelbarrows which held nine blue and gold flower-pots. As soon as the girls began to care for their plants, nine flowers of the Freshman Class grew, with exceeding rapidity, out of the pots. They were the Freshman basket-ball team. The game was even more exciting than most games. It was hard to keep from cheering while the players were in action. Between halves, full vent was given to all feelings in songs and yells. When time was called, the score showed that, although they had had hard work to do it, the Freshmen had won. A After the guests had left, and the rejoicing of the victors was over, all settled down with fresh strength and enthusiasm for college and college life. -Katherine Burley 93 i Itltwiitlf QTEK Kimi r arer I 1 s 5 I Piano Recital by PASQUALE TELLARICO OCTOBER 21, 1916 1 .

Hallow-e'en at Western , with clothes all worn and tattered and black, sailing on my broom-stick, hastened over hill and valley, meadows and 'L wood, to a secluded scene, a festive spot surrounded with high trees. I entered a motley host of elves. lVIyriad lights danced in the air. WVicked rays flashed from monstrous faces, gleaming with flame. All in a bower of russet leaves, glowing with color, a group of revellers assembled. Now a sudden swish of silks and a gliding of goblins grotesque to a-ripping burst of ragtime played by two real men! With a hustle and a bustle, I, consulting the decree of the Fates, grasped-a Gold Dust Twin, and whirled into the circle with the tripping company. Then came a lull and a mumbling, a clinking of goblets cold. Again and again we danced and whirled. Again and again we sipped of the magic potion, until at last, with the stroke of the fatal hour, the spirits of ghosts, witches, clowns, dolls, and even De'il himself haltingly scattered in the directions of the four winds. And I? I sailed away on my broom-stick to the land of spirits. I shall hold my rites again, for I am Hallow-eaen. --Helen Griesmer .W K HQ? Q 3 -fl 1' 'N ., .

'fThe First Thanksgiving away from home ! H thought our Freshman. And with that thought came a host i of others-memories of family gatherings at home. Tears Hlled our Freshmarfs eyes, a lump, that refused to be swallowed, rose in her throat. For the Hrst time in her life, she realized that Thanksgiving was not merely turkey and mince pie. She knew she would be homesick. The thought flashed into her mind that she had heard rumors of the extraordinary quality of VVestern turkey. Her face brightened. At least she would have turkey for Thanksgiving. A Thanksgiving morning came. On rising from a late sleep, our Freshman found, to her surprise, a huge, bulky, bulging box outside her door. Her box from home had come! A marvelous breakfast of chicken, mince pie, celery, sandwiches, et cetera, et cetera, followed. Close upon this feast of good things came the prayer-meeting conducted by her sister Freshmen. How proud ofher class she was! At one-thirty was the long-looked-forward-to banquet in Peabody dining- room. With her class-colors fluttering from her shoulder, our Freshman proudly took her place with her class at the long table. Her hopes were soon realized. Turkey was on the menu. And she discovered that neither Dean Sawyer nor Doctor Boyd carved it. s The toasts thoroughly delighted her. A clever idea, that, to liken her college to a nosegay of choice flowers. The toast given by her sister Crocus made her glow with pride. She was glad she had three years in which to grow and become ready to blossom forth into the most perfect of flowers, the American Beauty. And she wondered if she would ever reach the dignity of a Snap-dragon. VVhen all the toasts had been given, and all the songs had been sung, the banquet came to an end. Our Freshman hurried to catch the train for Cincinnati. She was going to attend her first Grand Opera! But little did she realize what G1-and Opera meant. Long before Tristan und Isolde came to an end, she was tired out. The trip home was a wearisome one. As she crept into her cot, in the wee sma' hours, our Freshman realized that, in spite of dismal forebodings, she had not been homesick. -Illartha Dunan i 98 ll ' .. 'ff' Jw- ..f. .

A ' Christmas at Western HRISTBTAS celebrat.ions at VVestern began at the WVednesday rxtifffgxyg evening Y.WV.C. A. meeting. lVI1ss Kent, the leader, told us ' tl ig of the celebration of Christmas in other lands. Thursday morning, we commenced the singing of Christmas carols in chapel. Stille Nachtf, g'DraW Nigh Immanuelf' 4'VVe Three Kings Of Orient Aref' and c'Adeste' Fidelesw cast the spell of Christ- mas upon us. Sunday morning, we were awakened early by the sound of voices singing in the distance. The notes of HJ oy to the World', and O Little Town of Bethlehemu came nearer and nearer. They passed our door and died away in the distance, leaving us inspired with the true spirit of Christmas V. During church, the beautiful choir service was an inspiration to Dr. Boyd, who delivered the message of Christmas joy. Class prayer-meetings continued the story of the birth of Christ. And at the close of this wonderful Sunday, song services were held in the chapel. Miss Libbyis interpretations of the Christmas theme inspired us as the first Noel inspired the shep- herds. ' Monday evening, a miracle play was given by the German Club. The birth of Christ, presented to us as it was to humble German people of the Hfteenth century, renewed the glad Christmas spirit which we carried homexwith us. . . -lllarguerite Gerlzardt 102 i I I ' M hill Plano Reoltal CARL FRIEDBERG Ianucwy 8 1911 Sonata Op 31 E flat ma,3o1 Beethoven Sy1I1phO1'11C Etudes Op 13 Schumann Ballade Op 10 Intermezzo Op 118 Capr1cc1o Op '76 Rhapsodle Op 119 Ballade G mmor Etude Op 95 Noctu1 ne F sharp IIIHJOI Valse A flat manor r I 1 1 8 u 1 103 2 I Q M -- . .

But our friends fro1n Miaini and the village seem to be more anxious to play than we. A few members of our faculty take exercise by knocking the little white ball around, as for the Western students, they have not yet realized the possibilities of the game. A golf tournament is far in the distance. Swimming . The lake is steadily losing its popularity as a swimming-hole, while the pool gains adherents. Nor is the skill of those who haunt the pool limited to the breast-stroke. The Jack-knife, the See-saw, Sinbad the Sailor, Hand-stand and Shoulder-stand are every-day feats. Swimmers are divided into three classes according to relative ability. Those who make second and third classes have numerals indicative of the fact to be worn on the swimming-suit. Those who attain to first class, the more adept, are awarded a class numeral which counts toward a W. Tennis The weather for the past two years has forbidden the playing of both the inter-class tournament and the contest with Miami Universi- ty and Oxford College. WVe hope that the spring rains of 1917 will not keep our courts like miniature seas. But with dry ground, even the warmest of spring days finds many girls, armed with rackets, seeking the Athletic Field. 112 Basket Ball In addition to the College Day game, between the Freshman an Sophomore classes, which gives the first impetus to basket ball, there is each year an inter-class tournament. In the course of the games, which come on hlonday mornings of the winter term, each class plays every other class twice. Those who are ruled out of active participation give vociferous encouragement from the side-lines. Playing in one half of four different games gives atplayer a numeral Field Day Soon after spring vacation, at any hour of the day, one may see bloomer-clad girls exercising strenuously on the Athletic Field. Some Saturday afternoon in May, these same girls meet in contests of jumping, running, discus-throwing, and hurdling, while the rest of the college looks on. Nlany very creditable records have been made. A numeral awards first place in an event. Wialking A clause has recently been added to the constitution of the Ath- letic Association to encourage regular walking. If a girl walks three hundred miles in two school years, she is given a numeral. VValks of less than three or more than seven miles are not counted, nor is a girl given credit for more than seventy-live miles in one semester. 113 ' WE.

Seminary seems like an 1nst1tut1on of the past with which .film we have little in common. Rules, customs, .outward forms are very different. Yet a study of the records and letters of that early day reveals many of the same conditions and problems that we have thought to be peculiarly our own. We can not pride ourselves on much that is new, or original to our advanced state, even in our college life. The Seminary opened in 1855 with an enrollment of one hundred and fifty girls. To-day we number two hundred and fifty. Our quantity is little changed, but the Hold girls sometimes hint that the quality varies greatly. ' There is, however, a great change in the kitchen equipment pos- sessed then and nowf At first, the total supply of kitchen utensils consisted of one range, a small brass kettle, and two frying-pans. For a whole week, they managed to feed the one hundred and fifty with these limited means. Miss Peabody remarked in her journal that, thanks to Yankee ingenuity, and training in logic and mathe- matics, they got along famously. An efficiency expert of today might well have felt in the way there. Every one helped, and thus was dom', instituted. . The following extract is taken from an article in a newspaper of 1860. Needless to say, the author was a teacher. ' N o female servants are employed, but yet no one of the young ladies is busied more than sixty-five or seventy minutes daily. Self-reliance and promptitude are cultivated. Indolence, fatal alike to habits of mind and body, is combated. The respectability of labor is maintained. Dom H in those days meant more than we have ever dreamed of. The girls baked, cooked, washed, and scrubbed. One wonders what the Hrst meals were like, when the inexperienced cooks took charge. It must have taken great faith and devotion to principle to leave that branch of domestic work in their hands. The girls rather en- joyed the laundry work, but the bread circle was less pleasing.

But as some of our pupils had re- latives in college there, it was 'arranged that all such should be at liberty to call. The first recreation day, however, caused us to re- consider that decision. One young gentleman had called for no less than six ucousinsf, And we were speedily convinced that con- sanguinities would multiply to an astonishing extent under such a regulationf' Economy was much encouraged in those first days. As an aid to this end, each girl was required to hand in a weekly account. The Catalog of 1857 states that practical lessons in book-keeping would be given if necessary. 1 ' Some absorbed this idea of saving well, as one of the stories of the first fire shows. A girl had gone back to her room on the fifth floor to get some property she had forgotten. VVhen she was ready to leave, she found that the stairs were on fire. Returning to her room, she quickly made a rope with strips torn from hersheets and counterpane. VVhen she had tied one end of this rope to her bed- post, she swung down to the ground. On completing this perilous descent, she anxiously spoke to the one who came running to her. I wonder, she said, wif anyone has remembered to get the silver out. ' The second fire gave Miami men opportunity to prove their valor. Unfortunately, their only chance came when a girl who had been hurt had to be carried off. But they performed this duty well, for later her husband spoke of meeting no less than a thousand of those who had aided his wife at this time. He evidently thought her worth their pains, for it was he who sent a fatted calf to the Western on his wedding-day. 'He gave instructions for all other husbands of VVestern girls to do likewise. No other calf has arrived. Perhaps other husbands have not appreciated their blessings so much. We find in a letter written about 1887, an account of the planting of the pine trees, one of which was so recently cut down to make room for the new chapel. The girls wondered if the little trees would grow large enough to give shade for other Westerii girls. 118 W is . JE The elevator dates back to 1880. Our older sisters possessed even that institution. How many makes of trunks it has hoisted in its carder! Somehow, nothing strikingly new and original can be found. We are the outgrowth of the past. Even we modern women seem to be astonishingly like these females of the Seminary. They, too, objected to tomb-stone.H +lVCL77f7l6ff6 Ashby 119 W im w ar t it Hymn to Alma Mater O Alma Mater, mother dear, What can We render now to thee, W'ho through these years hast fostered us, Like to a tender human breast t That feels the heart-throbs of its love?

My hand, on the Wheel Of my low-throbbing ear Feels the purr of the engine, A rut's sudden jar. But my thoughts speed ahead. In the tWilight,s pale gray I,Ve slipped off to freedom. It's been raining to-day. The constant annoyance, Provoking disgust, Shrill voices, fault-findings, . All rise like a dust, 121 C Blind my eyes to the joy In the day that is done. I have reached the last hill-top, And now Ijve begun To draw back the levers- The engine,s noise stops. I sit gazing below Wliere the steep hillside drops Into valleys, now gray i - Witli mist, which like smoke Curls upward from ground On which rain lately broke. I watch the mist rising In soft, bulky shapes, Now it lies on the grass, Now a fragment escapes, Floats, and settles, I watch From my seat in the car. Can the day have been real, With its tenseness and jar? 122 H Q ll WX X a ria s 4 I Q Q ml M ima. m'llii5E5l!5l K ,,T,,,m,, W WII ji? The mist' looks like spirit shapes Clinging to earth. As I gaze, they cling closer. They people the dearth Of the Valley with cloud-children. New forms arise. Are they ogres, to chase these shapes Back to the skies? Now the valley grows dimmer. The shapes melt away. The earth's form resolves Into-A one sheet of gray. I awake from my dreamingg I turn to my ear,' Switch the lights on, the starter: In a moment' I'm far From the Valley held close By the mystical gray. It has worked a kind healingg I am eager for day. 123 F Zora lllerceo l I W 3 a tt I T My Next Door Neighbor HE house next door to me is a plain, little, one-story, frame Hn. g, building, with the windows of the front room always closed, M and the shades drawn. On a narrow, dusty front porch, too close to the street, several nondescript, sagging rocking-chairs hold out uninviting arms to the chance caller of a summer evening. b f I ff lf . Not a flower brightens the gray picture. The ragged unkept lawn gives evidence of a mowerhaving been passed in a Zig-zag fashion, back and forth over it. .Here a bit of chewing-gum wrapper, a crumpled candy sack fluttersg there a torn, dirty grocery bill, blown from the basket of some passing marketer, flaps desolately in the shrubbery. The whole gives the impression that age, growing too weak to care for appearance, is mistress here. But age alone can not be to blame for the present state of this once well-kept cottage. Here, with his old mother, lives VVill Mieure, the town loafer. An early Saturday morning finds me picking raspberries from bushes between my own garden and that of my neighbor. On the other side of the bushes, a huge, plodding, dilatory figure moves slowly up and down between the rows, removing potato bugs from the plants. At length he imparts to me bits of information, which he considers of interest to his fellow citizens. Yes, I jest been down watchin' 'em load in. They ,low to ship more ice from this plant than from any other small town this side 0' Chicago. A feller down there told me that Will Perry owns most nigh all theqice-plantf' Nlr. Perry is my neighbor on the north. Well, I reckon he could afford to own any number of ice-plants, if he was to take a notion, for they tell me down town that his oil wells bring him in somethin, like four thousand a month. I ,member when Billy Welch was no morgan an ordinary farmer, who brought his own wheat to town, and now jest look at the way him an, his wife Tilly rides around in their automobilef' I . 124 1' 6 W A H Not knowing what response would be a fit answer to these- re- marks, I continue my berry-picking in discreet silence. lXIy co- worker, having finished removing the bugs from the fourth row of potatoes, now comes to the front of the garden opposite me to begin a new row. A shaggy head hangs forward between the thick stooped shoulders. One hand strokes his chin, covered with a weekas stubble. The other clutches a tincup, over which potato-bugs crawl. VVill stares at me with lifeless eyes. Proximity to what he considers an interested, if silent, listener, encourages a further flow of information. You know Will and Tilly had a girl who married one of John M. Buchananis sons. They tell me young Buchanan and his wife lives out in Kansas City. He ain't very strong though, I guess, and I ,lowed to Ma that Old Uncle Billieid have to keep ,em. Buchanan ain't worked a day since they lived out there, so Ed Brown saysf' By this time, I have finished picking my berries. With a casual remark, I leave 1ny companion to continue his work slowly back and forth among the potato plants. It is Saturday afternoon. I am on my way down town when I meet Paula Orr, daughter of S. J. Orr, the leading lawyer of our small city. We stop a moment to chat. She asks, Is Jane not at home? I reply that my sister is in the East. Paula laughs. 'gYour neighbor, VVill Mieu1'e, is alive to the movements of our citizens, isn,t he? Day before yesterday, he met papa, who, you know, is always so buried in his own thoughts that he doesn't recognize his own friends when he meets them. In the most unexpected fashion, Wlill blurted out to papa, c'That Jane Alport sure is some traviler. The ilectricityis off this mornini, an' she can 't get her clothes ironed. She 's goin ' to New York to-morrow, an, God knows where from there. Esteris in Chicago, too. Shefs been there three times this summer aiready. I laugh indulgently. ' Yes Vvill has apermanent interest in his neighbors, affairs. But as I continue down town, I smile to think of this stupid old goose having stopped the austere, pre-occupied, self-satisfied M1'. Orr, with such a bit of idle gossip. VVhen I reach the Tabb Grocery, it is about four o'clock, the trysting hour of the town loafers. At the right of the door, a group 125 I W i Z ar e l of shabby, lazy-looking men surrounds a familiar bulk. On a flour barrel, with his hands clasped around crossed knees, with his huge feet dangling in mid-air, sits my next door neighbor. I-Iis battered hat but half conceals his shock of matted hair. His humped-up shoulders cause his locks to fall well over his frayed blue collar. While I wait for a loaf of bread, I can not help hearing the con- versation of my fellow-citizens. Willis voice drawls out above the voices of his companions. I Yes, I ,lowed to lNIa, it was a plain waste of money for Oss Watts to send that girl os his to college. She,d been a-goin, with that feller Summers ever since he came to work in the Indian Re- finery, and everybody said she'd be married to him, by doggies! in spite of Osses sending her to college to keep her from seeing himf' ' Grunts of assent, and a few sonorous ':Yeahs,' from the group, show that VVill is accepted as the. prophet of the day by his fellow loafers. , I receive my loaf of bread and start home. I realize as I go, however, that my own affairs will be discussed in the same familiar manner as the affairs of the Perries, the Watts, and the Summersi. -Mao'y Carroll Applegate 126 gil!, g,,.ffExnI,5?

Such is the land of young and mighty works, That lies from Vasty sea to vasty sea. An earthquake sweeps the world and shatters itg A million guns explode across the line ' That separates one nation from the next. All life,s diseased with lust for power and blood. lien only think to kill-and kill-and kill. 127 W K im g g But yet there is a land the gods have blessed, VVhere nolgun rattles or no powder smokes., And no one hears the foreign cannon speak Or knows the horror of a captured town. Ten hundred thousand chimneys send their smoke To blacken city skies. Great factories rear Their walls to shut the daylight from the streets. Long trains of steel creep on their shining rails. V lllen say- war timesf, and - prosperous peacei' and laugh And fast grow fat and nerveless, and forget That what they prosper on, a beast would scorn- New blood, spilled by anotheriis strength. Greedy and money-loving men grow rich, While women do not care to see beyond The pleasant round of their engaging days, And see the while the nation's government Is slowly making guns and calling men, That, if a stranger-land assaults its shores, It will be ready with an army to hit back. So does the busy land of wealth and peace That lies from vasty sea, to Vasty sea. 128 41 llff I V l if E li 9 El '1 l 1 x i I r 9 'im J?J,. W v .,, T'l'!2E'T 'h'1 V'41'7'ffEi4? 5X'15 .

So we all have our proctor elections, And start on the great VVestern way. Again we bethink us of Freshmen, Escort them en force, as they say, To the sacred precincts of the chapel For the -sake of Y.W.C.A. Then quite unexpectedly coming, A terrible darkness appears Of Algebra mixed up with Latin. A It covers the Freshmen with fears. But quick to their rescue the Juniors -As all elder Junior girls will- Gave a backwards dance for the children To help make their fears to be still. While just to show their devotion, The Sophomores, so blithe and so gay, Entertained their staid Senior sisters, A And they danced the whole evening away Now even with 0'ood thin s sometimes, Z3 It never rains but it pours: To the old girls of old Western College, Did Patterson open its doors.

A limit weive never expected Is put on our muffin supply. l But life is too short to bemoan it. Next evening, all whitely arrayed, The Freshmen appear from Miami In a wild woolly night-shirt parade. And following this, in the beech-woods We sing of our college and classes, While an Indian war-dance surrounds us Performed by some wild WVestern lasses.

Always they are bound by pipes of lead and iron, Or close conhned between stone walls, Or let to trickle into marble fountains. I'm tired of them, I say. I want to seek the waters of the country, A stream where I may lie beneath low hanging And watch the shallows ripple in the sunshine, And sometimes see a school of darting minnows, And dream dreams most forgot. I want to find a small half-hidden pool Off in a pasture corner, where the reeds willows, And Hags grow rank, where birds swoop down to drink, And where, on hushed and blinding summer noons, The cows wade in knee-deep. ' I want to look down in some deep old well, And see my face reflected there below, I Then drop a pebble through the rock-lined space, And see the ripples widen out, And hear the full cool sound come back. I,m weary of these waters in the city. ' 140 s -5 1 M s 2 is as aff For Plumbing This generation that We call our own, Has guilt of many crimes upon its head. We,ve Kmurder, arson, bigamy, and divorce, And other thingsg yet in the midst of sin, We have good plumbing. The bygone days exploited oaken bucketsg But even those Who curse the city filter, Don't likethe taste of moss and rusty iron. The old gourd dipper having tender memories Had myriad germs as Well. I note the folk who mourn this vapid age Don't scorn a nightly bath in clear Warm Water, In' favor of the contents of the rain-barrel, With pollywogs and embryo mosquitoes. The veriest farmer who must use a cistern, He yearns to turn the taps marked 'cHot,' and Coldf, The man who needs must quaff his drink in public Admits our modern sanitary bubbler Is cleaner than a tin-cup. p The joys of the 'cole swimmin, holew were manyg Yet now, a tile-lined pool is not unpleasing, WVhile shower-baths and lockers supplement i My comfortg and I leave my sivim unsunburned, And bright electric lights don,t give me freckles.

I sat in a straight-backed chair At an oil-cloth covered table Neath electric lights that glare, Wvith my Latin book before me Next hour7s lesson to assail, For ,twas now eleven-thirty, 99 And I needs must keep the mail. Sixty lines-by concentration I might finish, if I Would, So I took my dictionary, And perused it as I should. Queer constructions danced before me, And their meanings seemed to fail To unravel as they ought to, As I sat there 'gkeeping mailf, But determination seized me, And I plotted for a While, Quite ignored the lines of people VVho did pass in single file, Till a constant nervous tapping, A premeditated hail Brought me back to Wlestern College, And to who Was Hkeeping mailf, 143 , WX Z a wk K 4' I Only stamps-she Wanted specials, And I sold them with a sigh, Helped insure somebody's package And explained the reason Why You must send your money-order Down to Oxford, never fail To procure blank paper for it From the girl Who's keeping mail Then I turned to Latin. Inspiration now Was flown. My' construction Was a muddle Such as I had never known. And I puzzled long and sadly Till at last it did unveil, ' AndI got a line of Latin, As I sat there 'gkeeping mail. For a time thereafter business Thrived delightfully, and so I Was busy doing errands, Wildly darting to and fro. It is truly most peculiar How these things your time curtail When you have to do your Latin And you have to keep the mailv. I 144 3 fifiL!Hfff!f2fEf 'ME M E 2 I But at length a hush rewards me. For a time, quite undisturbed, I untangle Latin riddles With a spirit unperturbed. Till-just in the middle of it- Rings the bell, and I bewail That I left my Latin lesson Till ltwas time to 'ckeep the mail. -Dorothy Vance 145 r w 1 .

But nowadays if you should care To write some poetry, The only sort youlre like to sell Is' that that,s known as nfreef, Van leebraw is the name it's Called. It isnat hard to do. . To show you how the thing is worked, I ,ll write a line or two. 147 You start out Like this: You can make your lines Any length you please. , ' They can be as long as the lane that has no turning, l Or As short As This. VVhat you have to remember Is If your heroine,s cheeks are unnaturally flushed, You say Her rouge is on crooked. It's realism we 're after. You never have to go to the expense of a rhyming dictionary, And as for regular rythm, It died when Amy Lowell Was born. Concerning subject matter, Why, You can write a cook-loook in poetry Now.
