Protect them by Thy great power, for their hardships and temptations are many. They have gone forth to fight, urged by the call of duty and the love of country. They have left comforts, friends, and homes at the summons of patriotism. They have forgotten self in the interest of humanity and they have offered the greatest gift of all, yea, even life itself. Oh, Lord, through Thy everlasting justice and compassion, prevent their sacrifice from being in vain. Guard them from danger, and bring them back safe and victorious to the sorrowing ones at home. LAURA LA FOND, ’18.

6 THE QUIVER LITTLE PEOPLE Anne Meredith. Lucille Meredith, Anne's sister. Robert Gregory, Lucille’s fiance. The scene is the attractive garden of the Merediths’ Long Island home. The curtain rises on a tall, graceful girl in a big gingham aprpn, working over some deep blue flowers in small, dull red pots on a rustic table at center. A rustic bench is at the left of the table. A wheelbarrow toward the back of the stage and garden tools, a rake, lawm-mower. etc., are scattered about. As the curtain rises, Anne is whistling. Anne. (After a short pause.) I thought I heard the postman’s wrhistle a minute ago: I wonder whether Lucille--- Lucille. (Running on right.) Oh, Anne! Anne! Look at this—a letter from Bob. He’s coming home to-day, to-day, do you hear, (.looking at the letter) at three o'clock! I have just about time to dress, and I haven’t a thing fit to be seen in! Anne. But you look quite adorable as you are. Stay and tell me about Bob. Is he feeling quite well again? Lucille. (Sitting on bench, curling one foot under her.) Yes, quite. He says he never felt better, but I don’t believe him. Bob never talks sense when he’s well and his letter sounded so serious—why, now that I think of it, I am almost worried about him. Anne.
