1931 PROLOGUE
The way is full of care and strife Along this weary way of life Sometimes troubles overwhelm And we can barely keep the helm And oft times everything goes wrong,
And hard it is to sing a song; Then the path just grows so steep, We lay aside our work and weep. 'Oh, should this old world treat us so When so far we yet must go?" We seem to hear a voice say, "No, The dark clouds soon away will go, And bright blue skies will then break through And life with joy will start anew."

To the Class of 1931
I have chosen to give you my message in the "Song of the Brown Thrush." May its inspiration help 3'ou to success and happiness through the days of your years.
"This is the song the Brown Thrush flings Out of his thicket of roses Hark how it warbles and rings, Mark how it closes "Luck, luck,
What luck ? Good enough for me! I'm alive, you see. Sun shining, No repining; Never borrow Idle sorrow; Drop it!
Cover it up! Hold 3'our cup Joy will fill it, Don't spill it Steady, be ready. Good luck! "

THOUGHT
Thought is deeper than all speech Feeling deeper than all thought; Souls to souls can never teach What unto themselves was taught.
We are spirits clad in veils Man by man was never seen. All our deep communing fails To remove the shadow^' screen.
Heart to heart was never known. Mind with mind did never meet; We are columns left alone Of a temple once complete.
Like the stars that gem the sky Far apart though seeming near, In our light we scattered lie
All is thus but starlight here.
What is social company But a babbling summer stream? What our wise philosophy
But the gleaming of a dream ?
Only when the sun of love Melts the scattered stars of thought Only when our souls are fed What the dim-eyed world hath taught.
Only when our souls are fed By the fount which gave them birth And by inspiration led Which they never drew from earth.
We, like parted drops of rain Swelling till they meet and run. Shall be absorbed again Melting, flowing into one.

"Live to the Truth''
If I have caught the meaning of this age-old Framingham tradition, it speaks of sincerity of spirit, of earnestness in obedi- ence to the right, of intensity of effort, of resolution to succeed, of joy in achievement.
Love your work with all its opportunities, privileges, and satisfactions.
Trust 3'ourselves. your abilities, and your ideals.
Dare to be yourselves ; many are good followers, few ven- ture to be original.
And so, in the simple realities of loving, trusting, daring, serving, "give to the world the best you have, that the best may come back to you." Francis A. Bagntall. MRS. BAGNALL To the Class of 1931
"Wherever you go, j'our shadow falls on others, and they are either better or worse for j^our presence."
J. R. Miller. MR. ARCHIBALD, Honorary Class Member To the Class of 1931
"M-usic strikes in me a deep fit of devotion, and a profound contemplation of the First Composer.
"There is something in it of Divinit\' more than the ear discovers." Sir Thomas Browne. 3n ilemortam HENRY WHITTEMORE Birth, July 23, 1843— Death, May 6, 1931
Beloved Principal, Educator, and Friend
Principal of Framingham State Normal School 1898-1917
(Written just before his death for the 1931 Dial) "The highest success comes from hard work, always an honest purpose, and a high character." Henry Whittemore. Mr. Henry Whittemore was principal of the Framingham Normal School for nineteen years, from 1898-1917. His great work for the school had its inspiration not only in the breadth of his vision and his understanding of public school work, but also in his appreciation of and his desire to further the growth of the Alumnae Asso- ciation of the school, already a strong organization when he became principal.
Mr. Whittemore became president of the Alumnae Association in 1916 and re- mained its president up to the time of his death. His desire was to have every grad- uate of the school become an active, contributing member of the Association, and for every class to be be a participating, contributing class in its tenth, twenty-fifth, and fiftieth anniversary years.
It was Mr. Whittemore's kindly, personal interest in each of his students and in every graduate of the school, his never-failing memory of her, her name, and her work that endeared him to all. Perhaps the thing which Mr. Whittemore did that the present girls of the school enjoy more than any other one thing was the planting of the apple orchard, which he said he planted that the girls might pick up an apple to eat when school was out. He was always a father in his effort and desire to under- stand and help his students, and always an educator in his attitude toward school prob- lems and in his vision of the school of the future.
The flag which covered him at his funeral service was placed there by members of his Grand Army Post because of his services to his country in the Civil War period. But it was also an appropriate tribute to his whole life of service to his family, to his college, to the towns and schools in which he worked, to his community, to all who came within the circle of his life. His aim was to serve and to win others to service. EDITORIAL
There is a great need for a Renaissance of School Spirit on Normal Hill.
Let us keep up the traditions of a famous institution that we are proud to call the oldest State Normal School in America. Are we living up to the ideals of
F. N. S. ? Do we respect those who are endeavoring to guide us on the right road and do we appreciate the effort and work given for us? The faculty have tried to instill a consciousness of a student's indebtedness to her school and the student leaders have tried to give the student body those activities which were wanted. Framingham offers us the best for the development of character and appreciation for the high ideals for which it stands that we may gain mental and moral strength. After all, a school is only as good as its school spirit. Let us carry our school spirit with us wherever we are — in class room, on the athletic field, or in our profession after we graduate. Be proud of your school and your school will be proud of j'ou. Start today and remember our motto "Live to the Truth." By so doing we can help others and honor our Alma Mater.
Orele Scott, Managing Editor. APPRECIATION
We are indebted to Mr. Ried for his willingness, his helpful advice, and his untiring efforts which he has given in order th at the Dial for 1931 might be a successful one.

One of the departments closely connected with the Framingham Normal School is the Jonathan Maynard Training School. This is the school in which the Normal girls of both Elementary and Household Arts Departments receive a part of their practice teaching. The Household Arts girls do their teaching during their Junior year. They help the girls in grades 5 to 8 with foods and clothing. The Elementary girls have their assignment here during their Senior year. They have experience in teaching the various school subjects in grades 1 to 8.
How can we ever forget the first day of our assignment at the Training School ? We walked down the hill to school with shaky knees and nerves all aflutter, but were received with kindness and immediately found ourselves within a friendly atmos- phere. We soon settled down and found the work not at all monotonous, but, on the contrary, always full of new events.
We especially remember teaching music under the supervision of Mr. Archibald, games and folk dances under the direction of Miss Taylor and Miss Kingman, and drawing under Miss Allan. Some of us had the good fortune of having Miss Cum- mings observe and help us in teaching histor}^ Yes, our teaching was closely regarded, but, it seemed, never with adverse criticism. There was always sympathy and help from all sides to brush aside any troubles we might have had.
Realizing the fine opportunities given us and the assistance we received, we feel indebted to the faculty of the Jonathan Maynard School. We know that the practice in teaching obtained here has given us a good subtantial basis for later work along this line. —E. RiBER.

JUNIOR CLASS
Priscilla Heathcote ...... President Margaret Moran Vice-President Eleanor Knox Secretary Phyllis Hillman ...... Treasurer
Our Freshman days were filled with glee Though swiftly they did flee, And close upon them came the time When every morn the hill we'd climb For sophomores then were we. But now we're living through the year That in our hearts we'll hold most dear, For in the work that must be done Each one has found there can be fun. And each has helped to give good cheer. The "Vocs" gained much this year, tis true From teaching, planning, and house practice too. AVe wish you were here All through this glad year Instead of leaving us as j'ou do. The H. A. students though not of great fame Have learned how to play a four square game,
For teaching is fine to develop the brain And house practice full of pleasure and pain In spite of it all, we're glad that we came. As Juniors, all we'll ne'er forget Those to whom we owe a debt Miss Hall and Miss MacMillan, too Let us say a word to you "We'll leave our Crocker with regret."

Not a care to bother you ? Leave our worries till we're seniors That's what all the others do. Look us over while you may, We'll not always freshmen be. Times do change and we will too, So use your opportunity.

HOUSEHOLD ARTS CLASS HISTORY
NINETEEN HUNDRED AND THIRTY-ONE! How soon it has arrived! As freshmen the climb to '31 seemed a long and difficult one but now that we have reached the top the four years' journey was not so hard to conquer after all.
Our first September, how well we remember it ! The upper classmen with their greetings to returning chums and we, bewildered, dazed, pea-green freshmen, perhaps trying to stroll nonchalantly from place to place but failing miserably, as we were labeled "Freshie" from top to toe.
After getting settled in our respective rooms, came the attempt to learn the art of solving a Chinese puzzle, at least it was such to us, in finding our way through the various dorms and school buildings via tunnels, stairs and bridges; thus we deduced that room 41 was on the first, not the fourth floor.
Our first great event was Harvard-Yale Week-End. The Mock Man dance came first and we certainly had some fine looking gentlemen present. The following day brought machines from all parts of the state with those who wished to uphold the crimson or the blue. The game was a grand one, Yale being the victor. It is still a mystery to us how we all got into the gym. After a short rest, enthusiasm again ran high at the banquet which always has something to please everyone.
Christmas came and proved to us there was a Santa Claus. Soon June, with graduation, class day and other activities and events, closed our first year at F. N. S.
How different the September of our second year! One year had provided many familiar faces and warm greetings for our return. What fun to visit all the village houses which soon provided us with "heap big muscle" from our one or was it one- half minute stroll up the hill each morning. Our favorite rendezvous was the "real first" floor of Horace Man Hall. We were united many times in both class and social affairs. Our Hallowe'en party provided much entertainment as it was held in the seclusion of the spacious gymnasium and each house presented some skit such as "The Old Ford," "The Kitchen Orchestra," "The Volga Boatman."
We also found time to settle down to business and it was as Sophomores that we came to the realization that there were such things as locker-rooms, chem-exams, special topics, darts, sleeves, tucks, eight o'clocks and psychology "dogs."
Crocker at last, — the diamond year!
How soon we accustomed ourselves either to the art of teaching or culinary. Those were the days of early breakfasts, bumpy bus rides and lunch boxes. Crocker kitchen always provided mysterious odors and tempting dishes which, when they were [HO] THE DIAL
pies, gingerbread and such, received the quizzical looks of all. It was not until our
Senior year that we realized that the odors had gone but the appetite still lingered on.
Hallowe'en brought all the spooks and rattling chains from attic and cellar. How-
ever, all fears of the unknown vanished and only the known quantity in form of eats and dance music prevailed.
At our Junior Prom, Lanvin, Molyneux and Patou came forth in grand parade.
Now — Seniors ! What an eventful year. First, our installation exercises with the coming of our new principal. Our Senior-Freshman Hop, something new in the history of F. N. S. Harvard-Yale week-end came next, with Harvard the victor thus changing the history to a tie score for our four year battle of H-Y games.
Christmas caroling, long will we remember the lighted candles with their waxy drippings and the lunch that awaited us at Crocker when the festivities were finished.
Valentine's Day brought our formal Dial Dance which was the last word in fashion. The Fine Arts and Musical Clubs provided excellent entertainments in which the class of '31 was well represented, as it has been in athletic and other activities.
At last the arrival of Commencement. We have reached the top and as we receive our diplomas we will know where we came from, why we have been here and we sincerely hope, where we are going.

VOCATIONAL CLASS HISTORY
THERE were six of us when, like all typical freshmen, we joined the ranks of the home wreckers and wondered what it was all about. Whether or not it was a case of survival of the fittest or a struggle for existence, the fact remains that our members gradually diminished and now we are three. At that we did better than the codfish.
While we were still in our verdure we were introduced to the mysteries of house- practice at the "Voc" house. This first stay was in the company of lordly seniors who, contrary to tales of the proverbial seniors, were guiding lights. Although we then played an insignificant part in the scheme of things, rumors of our habits still exist. It is said that Al's preference for the laundry and its charms were evident even at such tender years ; Caroline was, as of late, to be found digging wooly worms, of which everyone else was afraid, out of the corn ; and Louise's hopeless absent-mindedness was even then a fixture. We know our shortcomings. It was during that year that the Vocational department anthem "Hallelujah" was made an anthem. (Since then it shares honors with "Trudy" and "Bye, Bye Blues" but they can never bring the warm feelings to the heart of a Vocational that does our first-born.) After the interval that was our Sophomore year had passed, we again took up our abode on 178 Maple Street; this time we were all together. Gladly we noticed that Mr. Johnson still conducted the singing of the radiators and that the blue eyed ice man still filled the ice box. We reluctantly abandoned our housewifely cares on two days of the week and applied our trades at the Union and the Trade School. It was during this time that we learned of the loathness of conductors to stop the trolley cars without much leaping about on the part of the prospective rider, we improved our mind with the "Hog of the Ark" and "Fish Preferred," and in general learned many of the ways of the cruel world which had hitherto not entered into our protected young lives. At the Union, Caroline was frequently to be seen hob-nobbing with the southern bus boy ; it was up to Alice to nip the budding young romance — well — in the bud. And then our Senior year, the metamorphosis so to speak, of the trio. We now put into effect only well planned and perfected escapades. Whereas in our innocent youth we made pie beds which were merely pie beds, in our metamorphosis we made elaborate ones with onions, bushes, and kitchen ware to add just that touch of fineness which had formerly been beyond our ken.
With assistance we kept our house in order ; the silver queen stood guard over the grounds, and Sophie, Count Vere de Vere and the Whelk protected the interior. But even with these cares lifted from our minds, such difficulties as feeding such corn as had hitherto been served only to cows, to the Vocational house family, and the dis- covery of bits of glue in what was presumably snow pudding arose. But to make this narrative smack of a eulogy, we add that we have had a great time in housepractice and otherwise. That's our story and we stick with it.

ELEMENTARY CLASS HISTORY
IN an endeavor to make the past present and to bring the distant near, let us go back to a day in the summer of '29 when we received a letter, a welcome to F. N. S. Of course the letter was from our Senior Sister. All this happened one day in August while we were busily preparing for our sojourn on Normal Hill.
At last the happy day dawned. Upon arriving at Framingham we were much
impressed by the bigness of it all. In a short time we were located by our "big sister" and immediately we began to feel more at home.
We became much better acquainted with each other and the Faculty at the Freshmen Reception.
Soon we found ourselves waiting in an agony of suspense for the arrival of the occasion so hilariously indulged in by the upper-classmen.
Initiation was to take place! Do you recall how we wore our black cotton stock- ings and submitted meekly to the thrusts of the upper-classmen?
Many of us recall that after our Hallowe'en Party we adjourned to our rooms to find door-knobs greased, and the room literally turned upside down, and inside out.
In November we were very much pleased to learn that we could attend our first dance, given by the Student Government Association, especially so early in the year. This social was held in May Hall w"hich was very attractively decorated for the occasion.
Later that same month came Harvard-Yale Week-End, along with the Mock Man
Dance. We had previously decided, that is at the A. A. supper served on the back
hill, whether we would cast our lot with the reds or blues. The Mock Man Dance ushered in this gay week-end. This event was a source of much hilarit}^ However, the week-end proved to be a "Blue" one, for Yale emerged victorious.
Christmas time found us being entertained by Santa Claus. Will any of us forget the tapers and holly in the dining-room, together with the pageant? How we enjoyed our CTiristmas party and also how thrilled we were with the caroling of the seniors. At this time we realized that in only a year we too would be carrying out this treasured custom.
After our Christmas vacation we returned to our studies with zest and enthu- siasm. IVIany New Year's resolutions were in practice you see.
Early in January we attended our first formal dance at F. N. S.
We thoroughly enjoyed "The Dragon of Wu Foo" given by the Musical Clubs.
[113]' !
THE DIAL
Stunt Night was a source of great enjoyment to us all, especially the reproduction uf the operetta by the faculty.
"The Last of Mrs. Cheney," produced by the Fine Arts Club, was greatly appreciated.
The combined concert with Tufts was very much enjoyed.
Soon we realized that our first year at F. N. S. was drawing to a close. We watched the preparations of our Senior Sisters, for Commencement was not far away. We were glad that we had another year to spend with our Alma Mater.
In September we returned to the school on Normal Hill. How happy we were to renew^ acquaintances
There was much excitement at the bulletin board near May Hall for here was posted the list of teaching assignments. However, it was decided that "everything happens for the best," and that the time assigned to each of us was best, after all.
Many an enjoyable evening was spent in Horace Mann relating our harrowing summer experiences.
Early in the year we attended the Freshmen-Senior Hop given in Peirce Hall.
Once more we prepared for Harvard-Yale Week-End. This year the spoils were divided, each side being victorious in one event. Many of the alumnae returned to their Alma Mater on this occasion.
In spite of our many projects and lesson plans many of us attended the informal dance at Peirce Hall.
This year we took part in the Christmas celebration, here we were allowed to display our talents and again Santa Claus was very good to us. Have any of you forgotten carolling by candlelight and how we were rewarded with a delicious repast prepared for us by the girls in Crocker? In January we were entertained by the Musical Club Concert. We were fortunate in having a formal in Peirce for the benefit of our Dial. There was but one cloud on our horizon during our stay at F. N. S. That was
the loss of Mary Carruth, one of the dearest and most beloved members of our class. Nearer and nearer comes our Commencement. Already we are wondering what
the future holds in store for us, but we joyfully look back on our many happy days
spent on the hill.
Though we are looking forward to the festivities preceding graduation, with it comes the thought of separation from friends both tried and true. Through the adroit guidance of our many teachers, soon will come the day when we will receive our diplomas which permit us to take our place in the teaching world, and may we truthfully say Veni-Vidi-Vici.

HOUSEHOLD ARTS AND VOCATIONAL SENIOR PROPHECY
November 30, 1941
Dear Marion :
It's too bad you couldn't have been with us last week-end. Harvard-Yale Week-
End is still the bright spot of the fall activities back in dear old F. N. S. It was a perfect day for the games. Of course Yale won both of them, but the fun of the games was nothing compared with the meeting and the hearing of news about so many of the girls in our class.
Eileen refereed the basketball game. We hardly knew her because she is so tanned. You know, she never did any teaching. Remember she used to say, "Why work, when j'ou can be paid for watching people swim?" Well, that's just what she has been doing. About three years ago she was made chairman of the "Worcester
Life Saving Organization." Rumor has it, though, that it is not going to last much longer. It is said that she is about to use her culinary art. I don't know who he is, but Okey always reached for the best. We were talking with her after the game and she told us that Al Erickson, Fran Sunbury and Ruth Pierce had opened a lunchroom in the Centre for the exclusive use of F. N. S. girls. Piercie is the bookkeeper, ac- countant, etc. She insists on taking an inventory every week. She got her training at
F. N. S. You know "Booty" gave her her first lesson the day Piercie said that it made no difference whether there were peaches or cherries in the can as long as you count the cans.
Speaking of "Booty" she, Helen Mac, and Helen Cutter are to open with the
Chicago Opera Co. They should be a big success. Luna is with them to watch out for them as she did the four years while we w'ere at school.
After the game, we went to Crocker for supper. Remember the year we served the Alumnae? I didn't think, then, than I would ever be back to bother the poor
Juniors, but there I was. Imagine my surprise to find Bea Arrand in charge of
Crocker. She told us that Miss Hall and Miss Macmillan had left and gone into business of some kind, I can't remember what it was. Because of her splendid work our Senior year, she obtained Miss Hall's place and Ruth Barker has Miss MacMillan's. Every- thing seemed to be going along smoothly. Bea told me about some of the girls who are back at school teaching there. Helen Webber has taken Miss Buckley's place and
Evelyn Swanson is head of the Chemistry Department. Kay Hebert has taken Dr. Meier's place. When Kay took over this work Miss Gardener was no longer needed because Kay w'as able to handle all of the work in the department, bookstore, and all.
Al Atkins was there. She told us that she had just finished writing another article for "Woman's Home Companion." This one is entitled "What the Red-haired Girl
[115] THE DIAL
Will Wear This Winter." She also told us that Caroline Wright got tired of teaching in South Africa so she has come north to Egypt to teach, and Louise Ralston sailed last week to join her and to help her with her work.
On our way over to the Alumnae game we met Grace Cronin, who, by the way,
is head of the physical education department at F. N. S. She said that Polly Harnden and her All Star Hockey Team had just left for England where they will play the deciding game for the world championship. Elinor Thieme, Lu Poitras, and Barb Hewitson are on her team. They first learned to work together on the Harvard Team in 1929 and continued doing so in 1930. Dot Cutter and Alice Greenwood and their husbands have gone along as chaperones.
Doris Gwynn was here only for the Alumnae game in the evening. She couldn't come up for the afternoon game because Gibby had to go to work at four o'clock and she had to be home to get his supper. Doris told us that Mr. and Mrs. "Ducky" Hay- ward are receiving congratulations on the birth of another daughter. Jackie Creamer has a linen shop where she sells luxurious handmade embroideries. Doris also said that Dot Young has written an article entitled "Why I Believe in Spoiling my Babies," and Doris added, "she practices what she writes about." Scotty has revised the Chil- dren's Clothing Course. There are to be no samples of stitches or processes that were made in the freshman and sophomore years.
Mary Whittemore and Stanley have just returned home after Mary's concert tour of the United States. She said that Helen Beverly had invented some sort of a thing for figuring diets so that the girls who take dispensary won't have to spend so much time on their work. Phil Clarke, Helen Simpson, and Erma Ramsdell have opened a school in town for students who need extra help in French. They are doing a big business. They have studied for three years in France under Marjorie Long who has been teaching there since graduation.
Caroline and Loretta are busy women now, believe me. Caroline has been spend-

Loretta has accepted the position of Supervisor of Home Economics in Boston. They told us that Mary couldn't come because she was sailing
the next day for Brazil to study the system of distributing mail in the Normal Schools
down there. Her chief interest is in whether or not they should be allowed to get their mail before their nine o'clock classes, especially on Monday. Mabel Skillings, Beryl Rogers, and Terry Mark are down there teaching the natives to make their own
clothes.

Russell told us about the famous New York designers, Ackerman, IVIarshall Co. and Anna's dress was proof of their ability. Mrs. Amidon should be proud of her former pupils.

ELEMENTARY SENIOR PROPHECY
The Little Red Schoolhouse, East Burlap, Mass. (Just outside of So. Fram. going up Union Ave.) March 5, 1951 Dear Winnie:
I've been meeting quite a few of the girls from school lately and have found out what they are doing so I'm going to pass it on to you. But first— is Berkshire as attractive as ever and how is teaching going?
You'll never guess who is the new matron at Horace Mann — Jeannette Donnelly. As yet she says she hasn't found anyone to "pick on."
Daisy Erickson, Peg North, and Grace Silvey work in the information booth in
South Station. All they have to do is answer the questions people ask, such as "What time can I get a train to Worcester?" and "What train do I take to make connection for Millbury?" It's really quite easy for them.
Ingrid is back at school in the capacity of adviser to freshmen who are letting their hair grow. She tells them how to do short hair up so it will stay.
Met Win Doneilo in town the other day. After the first helloes, etc., a gadget on her coat said, "No, this isn't Nellie's dress." She invented it soon after she got out of school and says it has saved her a lot of trouble.
Helen Everitt, Margaret Moir and Picky Pickard have an apartment in Cam- bridge where they teach the young hopefuls of that cit\^
Frieda Fine is dean at F. N. S. She's so good at questions!
Marty Flannagan has a dandy job at the East Boston Airport. She's a traffic cop there. She got her experience in the "gym" at Jonathan Maynard, "tweet-tweet- ing" on her whistle!
Remember Kay Gallen ? Well, one morning a few weeks ago she woke up with a start, looked at her clock, made a dash for a train for Framingham ! She thought that it was a number of years ago, I guess.
Annis, Sophie, Florence and Betty are traveling far and wide. Cards from Africa say that the conditions there are deplorable, no matter how much you scrub the natives they don't come out white!
Mary Gibbons is teaching in Westboro in the hope that the "flu" will become prevalent again and she will get some more time off.
In a broadcast from London recently, I heard Helen Leahy singing, "There are Fairies at the Bottom of our Garden" to the ro3'al family. I'm sure they were as spellbound as we were in the old days at F. N. S.
Sally Leavitt is in China as a saleswoman for "Soapy Stories," one of the Yelineck Publications — Eva recently bought the McFadden Publications.
Doris Litchfield is in Switzerland driving Essex cars up and down the Alps. She applied for the position after being so successful with her own Essex up and down Normal Hill. [118] ! !

Mary Mongovin is teaching in California. She wrote recently to say that at a meeting of the Southern California Club she met Mary Banis who is also teaching there.
Blanche Wetmore, Pet O'Malley and Ethel Reed are running a kindergarten in Eskimo-Land. They heard that no one else had done it before and that a\ as enough
Thelma Salzgeber is still teaching in Weymouth. Had a card from Helen Shea and Claire Smith the other day. They are cruising around the world in their yacht. Helen said Claire had a nightmare recently. She dreamed she was back in Miss Russell's room with Thomas Gannon throwing ink balls at her
It's getting to be an everyday occurrence to have honors conferred upon Framing- ham graduates, but this is an unusual one — Christine Sheehan was made an honorary member of the Girl Guides in London at their annual meeting last week.
Mary Stavropoulos is Ambassador to the United States from Greece. While at the Capitol a short while ago, she received me with her old time charm and it was she who told me that Evelyn Rattie was trying to raise money to have all the Roman ruins modernized.
Did you hear Mim Goodwin over the radio the other day? She gave some dandy impersonations. She also gives elocution lessons.
Mary Grasso has established a world record. She won a contest, the object of which was to see how many appointments she could be late for and still be nonchalant without lighting a Murad.
Framingham girls do lots of things besides actual teaching. Ethel Hedman is at Normal School in China. She meets the incoming class in August for personal conferences where she discusses the advantages of boarding and commuting from a wealth of experience.
Hazel produced last week on Broadway the most famous play she has ever written — "How 'e Held Them!"
Arlene Hilliard and Esther Kyte are exploring Africa together. The trip is primarily to find the "Mountains of the Moon." Esther heard of them somewhere and now she's just got to find them.
Amelia Hodgkinson is happy tho' married and wrote only last week to enroll the twins in the freshman class at F. N. S.
Got quite a laugh the other day when I read in the paper about Kay Hutch, Bessie Stern, and Mary Quinn going to Mexico by bus to visit Dot Trimble. They told reporters they hadn't slept a wink on the way down so they wouldn't miss a thing. From the picture in the paper they haven't changed a bit.

Dot Myers is principal at the Training School. My ! how times have changed.

Shades of Miss Carter ! Met Betty Stevens in town last Saturday. She's tall, Winnie, and looks like Miss Carter. She took some pills Lfrsula Urquhart concocted.
Alice White is an announcer on the N.B.C. network. Heard her introduce Joe Smith last week who talked on "Foxboro, the Ideal Residential Town." Had a book sent to me recently, "How to Eat and Still Retain a Good Figure."
You'll never guess who wrote it — Mary Altimas ! Experience was her teacher. Celia Barr has retired, she's very wealthy, j-ou know, since she took out patents for improvements for the gas bugg\^ You don't have the impression of a stormy night at sea when you ride in one. Lillian Bearse told me she realized that she should have taught "uppers" 'cause the desks are so close to the floor in "lowers." Annie Birdsall and Cappie Bruen are teaching in Florida — Annie on account of the scenery and Cappie for reasons of her own.
Happy Boothroyd started to teach but was "discovered" and now is crooning blues in place of "Rudy" who is quite old now. Eleanor Brightman and Grace Mintoft have excelled Einstein with their theory "how to get from second floor to third Horace Mann in the shortest possible distance."
Bessie Bubryzchi is in partnership with Mary Toledo running an information bureau. Bessie does the collecting and Mary has the charge of the business end of it. Marion Byrnes and Rita Shannon are in vaudeville. Are they good! They still have their wealth of old gags. Doris Campbell at last found an appreciative audience for her tap dancing — we haven't heard where, but we have her word for it. Well, Win, I guess that's about all — and enough for I've got writer's cramp. Oh I forgot to tell you — I'm giving up teaching in June and going in for flying in a big way. You know I always wanted to. Lovingly, Marie. [120] THE DIAL

STUDENT GOVERNMENT
HE Student Government Organization is a vital part of Framingham Normal
School. Ever3' year we feel that it is progressing and we hope that in the T years to come it will become an even more vital part of the school.
The freshmen are introduced to the school by their "Senior Sisters."
The first event in the Association's program was the Student Government Double Dance which was declared a success by the entire student body.
In keeping with the Christmas spirit, the student body gave presents, trees, and a sum of money to the needy of Framingham, through the Associated Cliarities.
In order to keep the public aware of our many activities a committee has been appointed to see that local and urban papers receive news from the school.
A committee is now working on next year's handbook—a copy of which is sent to every freshman during the summer.
Through the work of a committee we are hoping to have one or two special assemblies for the entire student body.
Through the co-operation of every student, for every student is a member of this organization, we are able to hope for success. If this fine spirit of co-operation is carried on through the years, the Association should realize its greatest success.

THE CLASS AND CLUB COUNCIL
HE Class and Club Council is an organization which aims to bring about active co-operation between the classes and clubs and to carry on the social activities Tof the school.
The members of this council consist of a President, Secretar\', and Treasurer and each club and class President.
The most important business of this council is carried on at the spring and autumn houseparties. The houseparties this ^ear were held at Riverbank Lodge in Sherborn. Each member, at the autumn houseparty, presents the program that her organization plans to carry out during the year. Each president puts forth the problems confronting her class or club and all the members \vork together to solve these problems. At this time the time and meeting place of each organization is decided so that all conflicts will be avoided.
The social calendar for this year was made out at the autumn houseparty and the meetings for the classes and clubs were decided upon.
The services held each Sunday night in Peirce Hall living room are under the direction of the presidents of classes and clubs.
A definite system of keeping treasurers' accounts has been formed this year. So far, this has proven to be a great success.
At the spring houseparty the Class and Club Council-elect is invited to join with present Class and Club Council. At this time all old business left is finished and each president has an opportunity to acquaint the president-elect with her organization and its work for the new j^ear.
A Business meeting is held monthly.
The activity of the C C. C. this year was a formal dance held in Peirce Hall.
The C. C. C. is an organization that is working for the entire school, therefore all suggestions from faculty and students are greatly appreciated.

HE Chemistn' Students at Framingham are fortunate in having a system of T government which is verj' different from that in anj^ other department. In the year 1924-1925, the adoption of Student Government throughout the school w^as being considered. The Chemistry department was willing to aid the project and so offered itself for experimentation. This plan was adopted and a system of government was organized by the students. This was so successful that at the end of the year a constitution was drawn up and a more complete organization made. From that time all matters pertaining to the Chemistry Department have been conducted by this organization which operates thru a council and a sub-council. The aim of this body has been student development and co-operation.

THE Framingham Alusical Clubs are composed of the Glee Club, Orchestra, and the Choir. This \ear has been an especialh' busy and interesting one.
On December 15th the Glee Club gave a Christmas concert at the Boston Public Library. On the following Sunday we sang carols at the Framingham hospital.
The night before we went home for the Christmas holidays, a candle-light service was given by the Glee Club in the assembly hall. It was a sombre, beautiful, inspiring service.
In January our annual concert was presented by the Glee Club and the Orchestra with the assistance of Mr. Harry Dickson, violinist, and Mr. Charles Acorn, tenor.
These men were accompanied on the piano by Mr. Samuel Gardiner. It was an excellent performance and our guest artists added immeasurably to the success of our concert. The final number, "Agnus Dei", sung by the Glee Club and Mr. Acorn, with Mr. Dickson and our Orchestra playing, made a most effective and appropriate ending.
In the spring a joint concert with Brown University was given. This consisted of well chosen numbers by each club alone, and other pieces with both clubs singing together.
In June the members of the Musical Clubs will stay for graduation, assisting at the baccalaureate and graduation exercises, and on class day evening will present a concert on Horace Mann terrace.
For special holida^-s the Musical Clubs have furnished selections, and each morn- ing during the year have supplied a pianist to play at chapel.
The Choir has sung every Tuesday morning. It is composed of about twenty upper classmen. In the selection of its members the seniors are given preference.
In June the Alusical Clubs sponsored a Framingham Pops Night at S^'mphony Hall.
All through the A^ear we have felt very keenly the friendly radiance and sympathetic understanding of ^Ir. Archibald. It has been a pleasure to work with him as our leader.
The purpose of our clubs is to gain an understanding and appreciation of good nmsic, and to add something of beauty and richness to the lives of those around us. We have enjoved our year, and we hope that we have accomplished to some degree that which we have tried to do.

In March we were most fortunate in having as our guest Mr. Cyrus Dallin, one of the most famous sculptors in the countr\\
We had charge of Amicitia twice this \ear. For our first meeting Miss Hall gave a charming travel talk on her trip out West ; for the second, we had a program made up entirely of Freshman talent.
"Holiday" by Philip Barry was chosen for the annual Fine Arts Play and pre- sented by the talented members of the club, on March 27th. The large attendance was evidence of the fact that the Club play has come to be regarded as one of the big events of the year.
The bridge dinner at the Framingham Country Club was the closing event of the year to which all of the members looked forward with pleasure.
We have striven for interest and variety in our year's work program and hope that all members may have received some profit and enjoyment from it.

THE LOUISA A. NICHOLAS HOME ECONOMICS CLUB THE Home Economics Club was organized at Framingham in 1924. Our pur- pose is to bring together Home Economics students of the two upper classes so that they maj- keep in closer touch with current topics of Home Economics inter- est, and to provide an organization about which school activities related to Home Economics center. The "Club House" of said organization shall be used to afford girls the opportunity to make a practical application of Household Arts, and to have a house for social meetings of various groups. We are affiliated with the State, New England, and American Home Economics Associations.
This year we had a very successful "Ellen Richards" Program in December in commemoration of Mrs. Richards, whose work makes her one of the most beloved and instrumental persons in the Home Economics field. At this meeting Miss Mary
Barrows of Boston gave us a delightful portrayal of Mrs. Richards' life.
In January, we had an interesting and instructive talk by Dr. Arthur Holmes of Boston. At Christmas time we made scrap books for the Children's Ward at Framing- ham Hospital.
Our March meeting was in the form of an Interschool Program. Representatives from six different High Schools about Boston, and a representative of Regis College were present at the meeting, and told us about their High School Home Economics Clubs.
"International Night" was April 10th this year. The program consisted of a num- ber of acts, and food, typical of the different countries, was sold by girls dressed in costumes characteristic of those different countries.
We are planning to send a delegate to the National Home Economics Convention at Detroit this year.
Many other good times have been had at our Club House by the members of the club—waffle breakfasts, parties, meetings, and socials.
We wish to express our appreciation to all the members of the faculty, and to the student body, who have helped to make this year a successful one.

In the early fall we sent a representative to the Cedar Hill Conference. Our rep- resentative brought back interesting material which has benefited us so much this year.
Some of the Cabinet members visited a few settlement houses in Boston during the month of November. The visit made us begin to realize the wonderful social work that is being carried on.
We were very fortunate to have Miss Hayward, a representative of the League of Nations, speak to us at our Amicitia in November.
Miss Hunt and Reverend DwMght Bradley of Newton both lead us in discussions dealing with problems of vital importance to the girls.
Our annual Christmas Bazaar was a huge financial success due to the co-operation and enthusiasm of students and faculty.
The Cabinet members brought much cheer to the ladies at the C^ld Ladies' Home at Christmas time. They presented the ladies with gifts and sang favorite Christmas Carols.
In January, Mrs. Johnson, w'ho is much interested in Y. W. work, entertained the Cabinet at her home. We are all very grateful to Mrs. Johnson for her interest shown in our work.
We have been very much pleased with the enthusiasm shown in Y. W. this year and we hope the interest will be even greater in the years to come.

HE A'Kempis Club of Framingham Normal School is a club for girls of the T Catholic faith. This club was first formed in 1918 to take the place of the various Catholic clubs which the girls belonged to at home, to provide a means whereb\- the girls could get together to discuss common problems and also to bring them together socially.
Our club is affiliated with the Federation of Catholic College Clubs which con- sists of over one hundred student clubs throughout the United States and Canada. We are represented at all of the meetings of the New England Province which are held in Boston every month, and take an active part in the charity work which the New Eng- land Province is carrying on, one part of which is providing entertainment for the patients of the Holy Ghost Hospital at Cambridge.
We are to be represented at the National Convention in New York next July by a member of our club. Last year we sent a delegate to the National Convention which was held in Boston.
We are kept in close contact with the various clubs by means of the "Newman News," the official publication of the Federation, which every member of the A'Kempis receives once a month.
Our meetings are held the second Thursday of each month either at St. Bridget's Church or at our club rooms in the Rectory. At our meetings we have had many instructive and educative talks by our chaplain, Fr. John Parsons. At Christmas time we heard of his experiences in the Holy Land and saw pictures which he took while there. At that meeting some of our girls were dressed in the native garb of their country.
For our first Amicitia Service Rev. Edward Harrington brought to us the life of Saint Paul in an inspiring way. Our second Amicitia Service was provided by members of the club during the Holy Season of Lent.
We have had a happy 3'ear together and may the A'Kempis Club continue to keep up her good spirit, loyalty and co-operation.

ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION
have tried to find a physical activity of interest for every girl. Individual WEinterests have been considered because we feel that every girl must have an interest in at least one type of sport. With this in mind the program for the year was planned.
A. A. handbooks were sent out to the entering freshman class so that they might be acquainted with the activities in which the association participates.
During senior week a supper hike for the seniors and their freshmen was sponsored by the A. A.
The annual Harvard-Yale Week-End was greeted and carried through with the usual amount of enthusiasm.
On November twentieth, a delegate was sent to Bridgewater to the Athletic Con- ference for Massachusetts Normal Schools.
The Harvard-Yale hockey and basketball F's were awarded at a supper meeting held in December in the commuters' lunch room.
The Stunt Show was held in May Hall March 6th and furnished all who were there with a good entertainment.
At the end of the school year recognition is given to girls who have actually par- ticipated in sports.
Have you found your favorite sport ? We offer you hockey, basketball, baseball, hiking, swimming, skating, and sliding. Surely there is a sport listed here that you must like and will continue to enjoy after leaving F. N. S.

THE Commuters' Club is made up of girls who do not live under the dormitory system.
The purpose of the club is to discuss and do everything possible to solve the problems of commuting students, and to bring these students together in a social way. Soon after the opening of the school year, Miss Savage entertained the members of the club at a most enjoyable party. During the Christmas season a party was held in Horace Mann living room. Mr. Workman ably played the role of Santa Claus. Perhaps one of the most enjoyable occasions of the year came in February when Principal Arthur N. Burke of the Waltham High School spoke on Switzerland. This instructive and interesting lecture was attended not only by club members but by mem- bers of the faculty and student body. The Commuters' Cabaret, an annual affair, took place on February sixth. To Miss Miriam Goodwin, Miss Edith Savage, Miss Louise Kingman, Mr. Frederick W. Ried, and members of the committee should go much credit for the success of the affair. We wish to thank the faculty and members of the club for the interest which they have shown and the support \\ hich they have given us the past year.

HARVARD-YALE BASKETBALL
HARVARD-YALE day is the day of daj^s for every F. N. S. girl whether she is still a student or an alumna. If j'ou are loyal to Harvard j'ou flaunt the crimson. If you are loyal to Yale you flaunt the blue. If you don't flaunt either, you just don't belong here at F. N. S., that's all.
Can't 3'ou just see Yale all in blue marching on to the gymnasium led by "Sugar" Johnson and her bulldog followed by Harvard's crimson led by "Dot" Nickerson and
little "Johnny Harvard"? And then when you got into place on your side of the gym- nasium, could you find plenty of room for your own feet down among the five hundred
other pairs of feet as equally restless as your own ? If you could, it was all a dream and you never went to a Harvard-Yale basketball game at F. N. S.
Then pretty soon }ou saw twelve excited, \et anxious looking girls dart on to the floor—six in crimson and six in blue. Those were the girls who were to play the game
and play it squarely to the end, whether they were to win or lose in the attempt to gain victory.
But when the whistle blew at three o'clock on that ne'er forgotten Saturday after- noon in November, didn't you almost hold jour breath for what seemed the shortest
time in your life, until it was all over, at least as far as Yale was concerned, for Har- vard was ahead.
Needless to say, there were many who were so thrilled that they could scarcely contain themselves. Again there were others vt'ho were somewhat disappointed, but
after all, what difference did it make after their hungry stomachs were filled with the delicious turkey and ice-cream of the Harvard-Yale Thanksgiving banquet?

THE members residing in Horace Mann Hall are very happy to welcome Mr. and Mrs. Bagnall to share its home-like surroundings. We sincerely hope that
Horace Mann Hall will always be as happy a place to our newcomers as it has been to us.
As the evening shadows slowly creep, the bright lights of Horace Mann begin to ilash on one by one, indicating busy life within. But these lights are not the only lights of this respected dorm. The high lights of happiness are wdthin, sincere friendships,
thoughtfulness and kindness are shown by all. Oftentimes did our matron, Miss Swan, join us in a game of cards or camelot. Miss Robbins was always on hand to render
untiring service in remedying aches.
The living room was always supplied with entertainment for all. In the right alcove a group was enjoying a game of bridge. By the clock sat two girls puzzling over a game of camelot. Ruthie roamed the keys of the piano to the tune of "Doll Dance." Occasionally this was followed by a victrola selection to which a fair couple
strutted to the melody of a waltz. Magazines of all kinds afforded much pleasure read- ing—especially "Judge."

House meetings were primarily for business settlements, but occasionally it was mingled with entertainment when we recall the interesting talk given by Miss Savage of her trip abroad, and the Indian guest who was introduced by Miss Swan, and who told us of foreign life which was certainly very interesting.
One could go on and on relating precious experiences shared in this dorm, but these few reminders are sufficient to begin our recollection of other accounts not men- tioned. So here's to thee, dear Horace Mann ; may our memories e'er lasting be!

Why Peirce Hall, of course Altho we freshmen experienced a feeling of lonesomeness during the first week we were here, that feeling did not last long, for in Peirce Hall reigns a very warm and friendly spirit which does not fail to win response. I am sure that in this dormitory have kindled many warm friendships which will last not only for the four years we spend here, but for many, many years to come.

The class, as you probably have been told, Is considered aggressive and quite bold. And although we try to abide by the rules,
We express our opinions quite frankly, 'tis true. For 'twas thus we acquired our present strong hold
On the best ; that they cannot from us withhold.
Then there is the athletic prowess of the Class. But the opinion that goes with it —Alas! We are the noisiest of all the classes.
But then ! What is life without fun and laughter ? So all through classes and even after We laugh and we frolic without any disasters. We're scolded and criticized and admonished—we might Try to prove our ability, without "dynamite." What care we? "It brushes right off." For we did as well as any Soph.
This is our nature three days in the week; Of the other two da\s
Listen ! Now we will speak.
AS TEACHERS
We "grab" our equipment and then we rush Down the hill to catch the bus. (Sometimes we miss) This is the start of the adventurous day When over the class room "We" hold sway. The table is turned and we are the teachers
And 3 ou think it's not half bad being the preacher. Comes our turn to say, "Now tell me Mary Is it necessary for you to hurry? Why don't you read directions and then go ahead? Don't act like a chicken without any head And girls take your seats. Leave the room very neat." So on until the lesson is complete.

Why don't you invent boomerang tennis balls? Betty, you go that way; Annis, j'ou go this way, while Sophie and I will find the two in the middle of the gladiolus."
Annis crawled through the hole in the wire fence, and after meandering through milkweed and raspberry bushes retrieved one lone ball, while Betty, over in the sumachs, met with little success.
Sophie and I craviled over the peas and tomatoes, keeping one eye open for Dr. Meier, and reached the gladiolus. After picking up innumerable apples and tomatoes,
I finally found one red ball. Tossing it over to Annis, it turned to ketchup on meeting her hands. Words could not describe the disgust registered on Annis' face.
We finally picked out the two right "tomatoes" and adjourned to the tennis court, contentedly munching apples, and inwardly raging at the thought of our good ball lost.
"What was the score, Sophie?"
"How should I know?"
"Oh, pardon me, I thought }'-ou were official scorekeeper. My mistake. We'll call it30-up."

Sally: I was just waiting to see Winnie off.
Grace Silvy (out on back hill explaining 'a new game to Sr. B) : If any member of the opposing team calls your number from his side of the field, you must be a dead man immediately. Drop just where you are and lie still.
Ten minutes later came an agonized whisper from Margaret North : Can't I move now? I'm a dead man, but I'm on an ant hill!
Helen Mason (teaching history of the silkworm, wrote 1500 B. C. on the board) : What does B. C. mean ? Yes, William.
William : Boston College.
Marion McAuley (teaching class of monotones in music) : Johnnie, sing up high like this, do (extremely high).
Johnnie : I can't squeak like that.
HONOR AMONG STUDENTS
F. N. S. has a unique arrangement in its Chem Council—the Honor System. Each girl is put on her honor all the time she is in chem class to be strictly honest. In other academic subjects there are instructors present to insure honesty among students, not only during exams but also during recitations. The girl's inherent honesty seems to crop up and keep her balanced in club work and in nonacademic affairs with the exception of one thing—Men!! There they seem to adopt the policy "All's fair in love and war." If I happen to want your man and can get him it's just too bad for you. How I get him doesn't matter. Then if you decide you want him back again and you get him, the laugh is on the other side of the face. Once more how you get him doesn't matter. In the meanwhile perhaps he isn't so dumb he doesn't know that "something is in the air." Maybe he'll play the game for a while but if he is worth the powder to blow him up, he'll probably quit us both flat. If he continues to play the game and be the toy of every woman's whim, I don't want him, you can have him. He isn't worth the effort to hold him. Eel.

A FRIEND IN NEED IS A FRIEND INDEED
Dear Faithful,
You've helped me out of lots of troubles and now I need you again. I want a man for the coming dance—I also want one for my girl friend. Now you wouldn't mind getting us some, would you? We're not fussy although, of course, we want good looking and respectable fellows. We prefer them tall, one a blonde and the other a brunette. Remember, we don't want any college freshmen—we want seniors that have made scholastic and athletic records. Don't you know some of the football players? Be sure that they are not engaged or have steady girls because we do not desire any civil wars or revolutions. They need not have money but they must have a car—you know, a snappy Packard or something good looking. If they don't send us flowers to wear, there'll be a war so put them wise. Of course, we expect them to take us home afterwards even though we live in Springfield and they do come from Boston. Don't you think they would love to come? I forgot to say that they must go to the same church I do and don't get any peculiar names. I knew you wouldn't mind. Thanks so much. Your pal, RosiE.

AN IDEAL DAY
One morning a Horace Mann Senior awoke at 7 o'clock, found all her clothes Vvith ease, and entered Peirce in plenty of time to enjoy a hearty breakfast of waffles and pure maple sirup. Upon entering May Hall's portals after a brisk jaunt from the dorm, she found that two of her classes were to be omitted—quite a coincidence, as our little friend had not bothered to prepare for those subjects. At 12:15 our heroine had no difficulty in satisfying a very hearty appetite as she had steak and strawberry shortcake for her luncheon. Because of the irregularity in the periods, the flustered teachers neglected to assign any work for the week-end. Down in the student's room two fat letters were awaiting her.
Well, folks, this is station F. O. B. To-morrow night our kind friend. Nurse Jane Fuzzy, will oblige us with another fairy bedtime story. Signing off—goodnight. Sally Leavitt.
Mary Altimus (discussing one glorious week-end) : Well, Cappy, do you love that Southerner still?
Cappy Bruen (toute de suite) : Yes, but he's a thousand times better in action.
Miss Knox: Why, Gertrude, do you think that's the best hemstitching you can do? Gertrude: Oh, Miss Knox, that's your sample.
Imagine Mim's embarrassment when Miss Hall, raising the coffee pot at the Sunday morning breakfast table, poured hot water.
In rolling pastry according to Bea White you should always roll from center front to center back.

THE GREAT STAMPEDE Br-r-ring! Br-r-ring! A dash! and down through the dismal hall fly the frenzied lines. A push, a nudge, and one more person is elbowed out of the way. Voices grow to cries, cries to shouts. Now the members of the mob stumble, regain their balance, and dash on. A look of tense excitement is on ever\' face. Each individual strives to get ahead, regardless of the luckless ones he knocks down as he progresses. All is con- fusion. A fire? Mercy, no! Only the daily rush to the lunch-room.
Mrs. Nichols: Would you like to be judged by the first third of j^our life?
Fran Metcalf : Sure, we were only babies then.
Helen Paul (giving a Foods Demonstration gets crumbs in the icing and calls out to Miss French) : "Oh, Miss French, what'll I do? Miss French: That's your little problem! TO THE RESCUE

Happy Boothroyd cross at anyone? Horace Mann Hall quiet? The head waitress frantically looking for gravy for a late faculty dinner heating it only to find that it's applesauce?
Helen Everitt (at Sunday night lunch) : What does this mean—a fly in the bottom of my tea-cup ? Peggy Moran: How do I know? Em a waitress, not a fortune teller.
M. Moir : The first thing I ever sent to a magazine was accepted.
H. Pickard: You don't say! Was it poetry or prose?
Margaret : Prose. It was a check for a year's subscription.
Mary Toledo (after giving a talk in English) : Do you think they liked my. talk?
Bessie B. : Yes, I think so. They were all nodding. Betty Riber (trying to be emphatic with a group of children gathered around her desk) : Every one of you take my seat and take it quickly.

A ROOF MARE
1-2-3-4 Up; and up sat four pajama clad figures. 1-2-3-4 Down; and like automa- tons the four figures again lay down.
Silence lay over the roof-top and the Gibson Girl gazed down on a silent unbroken stretch of mattresses for a space of fifteen seconds.
The solitude was broken by a voice as a figure sat up in i bed. "I don't like the
idea of being under these trees. I hate ants and caterpillars."
" "Look out, there's one on your pillow !
"Eeeek— Gee, I think you're mean fooling me with a piece of twig. That's no fair."
"Will you nuts let a hard-working girl sleep?"
"Oh, some people have no sense of humor."
"Let's go bye-bye." Chorus: "O.K."
Later :
'What's in that corner?"
"Do you see someone? It might be Miss Keith."
"Maybe it's a ghost!"
'^ A voice from a corner. "Oh, shut up, it's only— a shadow." Another smothered sound from under a cover "Is it time to get up yet?"
No, be still; it's only one o'clock."
"Aw-gee-whiz, I can't sleep. I wish it was morning. I wonder what we'll have for breakfast."
About 2 A.M. a bewildered figure arose sleepily and squinted at the now hazy moon. "Hey, Bet, don't you think it's going to rain?" The only answer she received was a snore as the three musketeers turned over on their sides. "Oh, I know it's going to rain. Either you're sprinkling saliva or it's raining, 'cause I felt something wet on my face. It is raining. I'm going in."
A bent and broken figure passed slowly by, carrying a mattress on her girlish shoulders. "Pip-pip— I'll be popping" said she as she hit her nose against the hard door.
After that all slept peacefully until the breakfast bell rang.

DEFINITION OF A COW
A cow is a square or a wedge-shaped animal. It may be almost any color. For
variety it may be speckled—speckles must be well distributed, however, in order to
insure good flavor. The cow may be good for milk, or good for meat. Be sure it is
good for one or the other or it will be put into a tin can. This is mean to the cow and not recommended by the Humane Society. The cow might even be a dual-purpose like a dish mop that turns out to be a poodle. Be sure you feel of the cow before buying.
This may result in your being laid low by the hind legs of said cow which shows up the
bad disposition of it. In any case be sure to be nonchalant. It is well not to light a
Murad or such at this point for that and flunking are the most fool-proof methods of being eliminated from daily roll call. So much for cows. Our suggestion is that under any circumstances you continue ordering from your local bottled milk deliverer.
