Down the Rabbit Hole Chapter I E2E2S~ ALICE was sitting on the bank with "Sesame and Lilies" in her lap. Once or twice she had peeped into the book, but it had no pictures in it. and "What is the use of a book," thought Alice, "without pictures ?" So she was consider- ing in her own mind (as well as she could, for the hot day made her feel very stupid and sleepy) whether the good it would do her was worth the trouble, when suddenly a white rab- bit ran close by her. Now there was noth- ing so very remarkable about a white rabbit, but when this Rabbit actually pulled back the sleeve of a coat and looked at a little wrist watch, Alice jumped up and ran after it, and was just in time to see it pop into a larg "Oh, dear lark hole, saying, as it did so : >h, dear! I shall be too late." In went Alice, never considering how on earth she was ever to get out, and she found herself caught up and being whirled through space. The hole was very large, and she had plenty of time to look about. First she tried to look down, but fancy trying to look down when one is whirling through the dark. All along the way she could see water coolers and queer little paper * cups labeled "Use Me." Once she managed to get one full of water, but she only spilled it down the front of her dress, and she dropped the cup in a bucket as she passed. On on on would the hole never end ? "I must be getting somewhere near the equator," she said aloud; "about the eleventh longitude or latitude, I think." (For you see she had learned something about that in the seventh grade.) "That's where the Antipathies live, I believe" (she wasn't sure this was the right word ), "but I shall have to ask them where I am. Please, ma'am, is this Atlanta or Timbuctoo?" she practiced, curtseying, when suddenly down she came, and found herself sitting- near a car track. She looked around, but all was dark. Before her was another long passage, and the White Rabbit was still hurrying down it. Away went Alice, like the wind, and she was just in time to hear it say as it turned the corner: "Oh, my ears and whiskers, how late it's getting!" She was close behind it when it turned the corner, but it was no longer to be seen. She found herself in a long, low hall, one side of which was lined with a row of clocks and electric buttons. Down the other side was a row of queer little doors. She tried them all, but they were locked except one at the end, which opened violently as she came up, and a head popped out so suddenly that she drew back in alarm. It looked very much like a frog to Alice, but its head was covered with a white dust cap. For a moment it looked at her fiercely. "Greens in here," it announced in a loud voice. "I'm not green," she whispered, quite frightened. "You are," it snapped, "quite green," and. popped back in as suddenly as it had come. Alice walked in the door rather timidly. The head had vanished quite away, and all she could see was a large glass table with three bottles on it, all side by side, and marked "Take Me." As she stood regarding them she heard one of them remark quite meekly: "I'm not at all sure she's quite green," and when she looked about to see who spoke she noticed for the first time that the stoppers were little glass heads, and they were making cutting remarks in a lively dispute. "If she isn't green why is she in here?" announced the middle one tri- umphantly. "That proves something, you know. You couldn't even tell the population of Persia, could you?" it asked, peering at Alice so suddenly through the table that she felt very small and helpless. "Really, now that you ask," she stammered, "I don't think " Continued on page if. , .

W. .^ ... _- The Important Acts in a Freshman's Life ACT I Scene I A railroad station at night: a drizzling, September rain; locomotive puffing in the distance. Enter Miss Freshman, wide eyed and miserable, followed by Father, Mother, and all the loving family. Miss Freshman (weeping upon her mother's shoulder) : "O Mother, this is the first time we have parted. Please don't forget to send me a box the first week." Mother: "Yes, yes, my daughter: but don't you forget to wear your rubbers, take your medicine, and always study hard." Porter calls: "All aboard." Freshman is dragged from the maternal bosom. Chorus in background singing, "How Can 1 Bear to Leave Thee?" as train slides off in a lake of tears. ST"^ /"':" Scene II Agnes Scott campus. Five-thirty in the morning. Enter Freshman wearing a look of determination. She is accompanied by "Arm" and his gloves. Freshman ascends the front steps for the last time. Freshman (planting her feet firmly on the top step) : "I'm going to love it here, and I'm going to make the Class of 1917 the best that has ever been to A. S. C." (Turning point in Freshman's career, and first indications of the wonderful characteristics that we now see in her daily.) Chorus of other Freshmen inarching down the hall to classification com- mittee, "Onward^ Christian Soldiers." ACT II Scene I Y. W. party. Beverley makes it her duty to Fresh, accompanied by old girls, enters. She and is discovering that there are two literary "Agnes Scott, my Agnes The campus decorated for refresh the weary with punch, has become very much at home, societies at A. S. C. Chorus of whole student body singing lustily, Scott." Scene II Rebekah Scott lobby ; wild yells emerging from each society hall. Fresh- man, worn out with much walking, stands upon the steps, an envelope in each hand, and weeps loudly. Freshman (under her breath ) : "I must remember that I am a member of the Class of 1917, and, therefore, stop this foolish indecision." Goes firmly down, leaves regrets at one door, and is received by outstretched arms at the other. ACT III THE big act Scene I Silence and darkness over all ; the clock in Decatur has struck two ; Freshman sleeps soundly in her little bed. Enter five Sopho- mores well masked, carrying flashlights. First Soph (little light-haired lady): "Here, take this, dear, it will not hurt you." Freshman calmly takes the "Black Hand." . , ..;i ...u - - Second Soph (tall, dark-haired, very ferocious) : "Here, open your mouth and swallow down castor-oil." Freshman (rising boldly in bed. dramatically waving powder boxes): "I will not take the horrid stuff; please leave the room before 1 have to make you go!" Sophs all steal silently out. Darkness and quiet return. Scene II Outside Rebekah Scott Hall. Sophomore banner fastened outside second-story windows. Freshmen crowded in third-story windows. Alice on the colonnade, giving directions. Agnes suspended by one foot, poking at the banner. Sophs (wailing) : "Oh, it's going to fall, it's going to fall! We can not do anything to save it!" Freshmen singing, "Glory, Glory, Hallelujah!" Banner goes down. Freshman " '17" takes its place. Scene III Campus ; moonlight. A long line of Freshmen march over the campus, following Alice and the donkey. The donkey adorned in a cover with "Sophs, As Others See Them" painted on it. Miss Freshman, wildly excited, urges on the line. Freshmen dance around a red light, singing: "Freshman! Freshman! is our cry, I'-i-c-t-o-r-y! and "Where, oh, where have the Sophomores gone, Oh, where, oh, where can they be? They got scared and ran When the fight began. Oh, where, oh, where can they be?" Low murmur, understood to be the Sophomores singing, is drowned by the strength of the Freshmen. 15 SI )UE1 H : - : "& ACT IV Scene I Terminal station in Atlanta crowded with students, all smiling and gay. Enter Freshman, suitcase and Christmas cheer. Freshman (to best friend) : "Don't forget to write to me every single day!" Best Friend: "Don't forget I've got to have your picture right away." Porter calls: "All aboard." Students make wild rush for car. Chorus from back platform: "Home, Home, Sweet, Szveet Home." ACT V Scene I Agnes Scott again, after Christmas. Gloom over all. Main Building classroom. Enter Miss Freshman, face in book, trying to find somebody's elates. The curtain will he lowered for a few minutes to show the passage of two weeks. This is done to save the tender-hearted public from seeing the ordeal of exams. Curtain rises again to show Freshman still there, serene and triumphant. Having taken as her motto, "Let us seek the best," she is ready for whatever may come. Curtain. M. S. Payne, '17. _.-., - I -E' DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE Continued from page S. "Then you shouldn't talk." snapped the smallest bottle. "It's plain to see she is green." it stated to the others. "She's only Freshman size." And so she was. for when she gazed about to see how they told, she found she had shrunk to about one-fourth her natural size, and just reached to the notch on the table leg marked "Freshman." "Oh, dear me." she exclaimed in dismay, for she was shrinking rapidly away, so she turned and ran from the room, never even stopping when she heard the second bottle exclaim : "Green, quite green !" The hall looked quite different to her now, for the ceiling seemed to be miles away, and she saw, also, for the first time, a tiny door near the entrance. Raising herself on tiptoe, she peered through the keyhole and saw- there the loveliest garden you ever saw. Over a gateway was written "The Garden of Privilege." How she did long to wander among those beds of bright flowers and those cool fountains! But she had not even a key, so all she could do was to peer. She sat down mourn- fully, feeling verv lone- some. After a while she heard the pattering of feet in the distance. It was the White Rabbit return- ing, splendidly dressed, carrying a large fan and two notes. It came trot- ting along in a great hurry, muttering to itself: "Oh. the Duchess, the Duchess 1 Oh, won't she be savage if I've kept her waiting!" She was very much bigger than Alice, but she felt so desperate she was ready to ask help of any one, so when she came near she began in a low, timid voice : "If you please, ma'am- ': ' . . .1 L.*' u. .. . -J The Rabbit started violently, dropped the fan and the notes, and scurried away into the darkness as fast as he could go. Strange to say, the notes had "Alice" written in curious letters on them, and she opened them, wondering how thev knew her name. "You are a Probalean." said the first. "You are a Nemesean," said the other just as positively. "I wonder if they are tribes of the Antipathies," she said, using the notes to fan with. "Dear, dear, how queer everything is to-day! I wonder if I was changed in the night. And if I'm not I, am I a Probalean or a Nemesean?" Just as she was saying this and feeling very flattered, bump went her head against the ceiling, for she had really grown so that she was as tall as the ceiling. "Curioser and curioser," cried Alice. "Now I'm sure I'm not I. If any one comes and says, 'Come on, dear,' I shall say, 'Tell me who I am, and if I like being that person I'll come.' But, oh, dear!" she finished with a sudden burst of tears, "I do wish some one would come. I'm very tired of being alone." She went on shedding gallons of tears until there was a great pool all about her. She did not notice that she was shrinking as she cried, "Though, to be sure," she explained to herself afterward, "one's body is 70 per cent water, and one must shrink if one cries." As she said these words her foot slipped, and, splash ! she was up to her chin in salt water. "I wish I hadn't cried so much," said Alice as she swam about, trying to find her way out. "It will be a queer thing, to be sure, to be drowned in one's own tears." Continued on pas. ..3. .^ / .:..* \ ^ *;..-. JS. ''-;v : "':',..

Anderson Dew DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE Continued from page 18. Just then she heard something splashing about in the pool a little way off. At first she thought it must be a walrus or a hippopotamus, but then she remembered how small she really was, and she made out that it was only a mouse that was drowning in tears, like herself. "It might be of use, now," tin night Alice, "to speak to this Mouse." So she began: "O Mouse, do you know the way out of these tears? I am very tired of swimming, O Mouse." (She thought this the correct way to speak to a mouse, for you see she remembered her Latin grammar "a mouse, of a mouse, to or for a mouse O mouse." ) The Mouse seemed to wink one of its eyes, but said nothing. "Perhaps it doesn't understand English," thought Alice. "I dare say it's a German mouse come over with Helmrich the Conqueror." So she said the only German she remembered, "Kuriose Geschichte," which was the name of a little piece she knew. The Mouse gave a sudden leap out of the water and seemed to quiver all over with fright. "Oh, I beg your pardon," cried Alice hastily. "Perhaps you don't like stories." "Not like stories!" cried the Mouse in a shrill, passionate voice. "Would you like stories if you were an editor?" "Well, perhaps not," said Alice in a soothing tone. "I've never been one; but I knew an old gentleman who ran a paper." Half to herself: "He was such a dear, funny thing, and told such nice stories. Oh, dear, I'm afraid I've offended it again " for the Mouse was swimming away as hard as it could. So she called after it : "Mouse, dear, do come back again. We won't talk about stories." When the Mouse heard that it swam idly back, its face quite pale (with pain, Alice thought). "Let us go to shore and I'll tell you my history: then you'll understand why I hate stories." It was high time to go, for the pool was full of little things, who were drowning in tears. Alice led the way, and the whole party swam to the shore. They all sat down in a ring and faced the Mouse. "You promised to tell us your history, you know, and why you hate stories," said Alice. "Mine is a long and sad tale," said the Mouse sadly. Alice said "Yes," and kept looking at it. so that her idea of the tale was something like this : ip. / ; \- .. "Said a girl to a mouse that she met in the house, 'You must Editor be ; I've a story for you. Come, I'll take no denial. Just give it a trial, for of course we all know you've nothing to do.' Said the Editor Mouse to the girl in the house : 'Don't you ask me such things ; it is wasting your breath.' 'Tell that to a jury,' said she in a fury. 'They'll" try the whole case and condemn you to death.' " SIL1 "You're not attending," said the Mouse severely. "Oh, I beg your pardon," said Alice very humbly; "that was the fifth bend, I think." "It was not" said the Mouse very sharply. "A knot?" said Alice, very anxious to be useful. "Let me help undo it!" "I shall do nothing of the sort," said the Mouse, getting up and walking away. All the others went also, and Alice was left quite alone. 37 Silhouette Staff SARAH G.

King lR beautiful dog was dead. Slowly, and in a puzzled manner, the child repeated to herself the words: "King is dead." Somehow, it took her a long time to realize it, and then, when that fact came to her at last, she didn't cry. She was facing her first real sorrow now; King had been her constant companion and playmate ever since she could remember. King was the one to whom she had whispered her childish secrets and dreams, and now she could not, and would not, think of life without her dog. She remembered the time King had torn up her sister's doll it was just an ordinary one, too and to keep him from being punished she had given up her own wax doll that would "go to sleep." But she also thought of other times times when she had refused to play with him and had been angry with him. These things remained to make her sorry. Every one was so kind to her that day ! Her father promised a tomb- stone for King's grave the}' had buried him in a pasture about a fourth of a mile from her home. Her uncle brought a book to read to her "Beautiful Toe's Paradise" they wouldn't understand, and she didn't want an old paradised dog! But, worst of all, her mother promised another dog. Night and bedtime came at last, but the poor child could not sleep, nor did she try to. She waited nearly all night, so she thought in reality only about two hours for the other people to go to sleep. Thoughts of her loss came to torment her anew, and finally one thought brought comfort: She had loved King better than anything else, so, therefore, the other things she loved next ought to go too. Conscientiously, she counted over in her mind her most treasured possessions : A little red dress, dear because everything else was white ; a blue ring that she somehow connected with the sky, and a book of dog pictures. Slipping softly out of bed, she collected these things, took a little spade, and walked alone to King's grave. It was the kind of night she loved, though she didn't know why; it was sultry, and threatened to storm. Distant rolls of thunder did not frighten the little girl; the bright flashes of lightning showed a small, white-robed, bare-foot figure digging a hole right near King's grave. When she had -in \ : ... ... . ... finished she buried the few small treasures which she had brought with her. Kneeling at her dog's grave, and looking up into the darkening clouds, she somehow found peace after her day of trouble. With folded hands she began : "Great Storm Spirit, I sol'm'ly swears not to love no dog 'cept King, and not ever to have another dog. Amen." And the great burst of thunder which came with the bright blaze of lightning showed that the "Storm Spirit" had indeed heard and understood. LlDIE TORREY MlNTER. HfHP "Outside the Curriculum" ABBIE," Jean said slowly, "I'm disappointed in you." Barbara Akin, half asleep on one of the white beds, turned her head so she could see Jean through half-closed lids. She liked to watch Jean, anyway. There was some- thing about her face worth watching. "Too bad,'' she said nonchalantly. "You should worry." "I mean it, Babbie, I honestly do." Jean turned. Her face would never have been called handsome. Her chin was too square; her mouth a trifle too large; but the straightforward brown eyes, and the way the little wisps of red-brown hair curled about her forehead were to Barbara irresistibly attractive. "You should have known better than to expect anything," Barbara answered lightly. "Babbie, please be serious," Jean said earnestly. "It's not a joke. You know very well you could have done as Kate asked you and been on that program committee. There wasn't a reason in the world why you couldn't have done it. You've got to do something outside the curriculum." Barbara smiled in her own lazy, conciliating fashion. "There wasn't any reason why I should, either. There are plenty of folks to do it. Why, Ellen Dean would do it, and beam over it all the rest of her life. Why not let somebody " "Yes, and how would it be done?" Jean interrupted. "The meetings wouldn't be worth going to. I think you might at least do that much for your Society, might at least have that much college spirit. It just makes me mad when people have the ability to do things and won't. There isn't a reason on earth why you shouldn't do it." "Because I don't want to. I have plenty to do, and I don't intend work- ing any harder. You know yourself you can't get up your work half as well when you go in for outside things. I don't see how you ever get up yours at all, with all the extra things you have on your hands." Barbara had pushed back the gay pink comfort and sat up in bed, with the soft folds of her pink kimono falling about her. Her long, brown hair 42 O" " -* / v_. .... , w . ,_ v JL A JU/ ! had slipped down about her shoulders ; her cheeks were flushed from sleep, and her olive skin looked as soft as a baby's. Her eyes, as she looked at Jean, were big and brown and smiling, her lips half parted. When she smiled, her eyes somehow seemed almost almond shaped, and her eyebrows peculiarly long and pointed. Her smile usually conquered Jean, but to-night it rather irritated her that a girl with all the beauty and charm Barbara had should be content to use it only for herself. Jean turned toward the table where she was sitting", and gave the shade on the electric light a push so as to get the light out of her eyes. She hesi- tated. What was the use in saying anything more to Barbara when she answered in that tone? The light, as she had turned it, fell full upon the wall back of the big study table. For an instant Jean's eyes rested on the calendar that she had hung. She read the line for the week idly : "Speak thou the truth. Let others fence And trim their words for pay : In pleasant sunshine of pretense Let others bask their day." "Babbie," she said, with sudden resolution, "you are just plain-out lazy." "Maybe I am." Barbara agreed. "Well, it's a shame; a girl like you would accomplish wonders. Think of it, Babbie, you are good looking and attractive, and have an extraordinary amount of sense besides an unusual combination " "Thank you," and Barbara bowed low. "Oh, I don't mean to be complimentary. You needn't take it that way," Jean's tone was a trifle bitter. "In my estimation it's rather a reflection on you that you are lazy and selfish enough to use them only for yourself. Excuse me, Babbie, you are a dear to me, but that just makes me all the madder because you never let other people see how unselfish yon can be." Jean's tone had grown suddenly tender. Barbara yawned and got off the bed. "Not changing the subject at all, what time is it, Jean?" "A quarter after five." "And I have an engagement with Ruth to study German at five." She went across to the table for her German book. "Babbie," Jean said, catching her hand for an instant and looking up into her face, "please wake up and show people what I know you can do." 43 Barbara stooped impulsively and kissed Jean. Caresses were rare with her. Jean looked up, surprised, but Barbara only smiled. "I'm still sleepy," she said, "but I hope I'm awake thanks to you sufficiently, at least, to study German." She made a low bow and was gone. Jean sat gazing through the window, as the soft pink of the sky faded into grey, without knowing what she saw. Then, slowly, she turned back to her Latin book It happened down in Alice's room just a week later. Alice was watching the candy. Most of the others, garbed in gay hues, had taken possession of the two beds, all laughing, all talking at once. Only Jean sat in a low chair near Alice and said nothing. It seemed wonderfully good to her just to sit still and do nothing and think of nothing. Alice's voice aroused her : "Jean, will you watch the candy while I go see if I can borrow some butter? I forgot all about it." "I certainly will," Jean said, and rose, but wearily. She didn't remember ever being so tired before. The other girls were talking and hardly noticed. Somebody said something, everybody laughed, then the babel of voices went on. Jean did not hear. It all sounded vague and far away. Then, suddenly, Barbara gave the girl in front of her a push and sprang across the room just in time to catch Jean as she fell. The voices stopped, then began again in low, excited tones. There were a dozen girls standing about Barbara with frightened faces. Barbara kept her head and gave commands hurriedly : "Alice, get some cold water, quick." "You telephone Dr. Stuart." "See if you can lift her on the bed " But Jean did not open her eyes. She lay so still and white that Barbara turned away quickly to gain control of herself, then began bathing her face. Her eyes opened at last and she looked up dazedly into Barbara's face. Barbara answered the question in her eyes. "You are in Alice's room, Jean; you fainted." It was not until after the doctor had come and had gotten Jean to bed in her own room that Barbara finally managed to see the doctor alone. "What is it?" she asked anxiously. "Is Jean going to be very sick?" "She is just broken down," Dr. Stuart said. "She tried to do too much, and she isn't strong, anyway. I'm afraid I'll have to put a stop to everything but regular work this year." Barbara was dressing quietly next morning, when she turned to find Jean getting up. "Go right back to bed this minute," Barbara ordered. "But, Babbie, the Journal just has to go off to-day, and I've got to get up and get it off. There is no one else to do it." "I guess I can do it," and Barbara put on her high-and-mighty air. "But. Babbie " "Get back into bed this minute, Jean, and tell me what you want done and I'll do it." And she did. though it involved seeing a dozen or more people about a dozen or more things, and sitting up "after lights" that night. "You're a dear," Jean told her, "and it's going to be better than any of them. They'll be wanting to give you the job instead of me." It was the next day that Barbara, watching Jean's face, discovered that something was the matter. "What's the matter, dear?" she asked when she had Jean alone in the room. "I'm sorrv I look as badly as all that," Jean fenced. "Tell me what's the matter, Jean," and Barbara looked her straight in the eyes. "Dr. Stuart said I'd have to give up all outside work, and and I just can't." Jean's lips trembled. "Why?" Barbara went straight to the point. "Because there is no one else to do it. I just can't turn the journal over to anybody, and those who could take it have too much work; and then no one else would know how I wanted things done in my committee of Y. W. I had everything all planned ; and Betty and I had decided how we wanted everything on the program committee, and everything has got to be done by next Saturday night for that, and a new member of the committee can't possibly be elected until then, and, oh. it's impossible! No, it isn't at all!" she contradicted herself. "Somebody else can do it just as well. I am just foolish and want to do it myself. I'm interested in them all, and if some- bod)' else has them I'll just be out of it all and never know how things are working out or anything that's going on, and they are all dear to my heart. You don't know how you get interested in things when you work at them." 45 "Jean, you just mustn't worry. You remember what Dr. Stuart said," Barbara reminded her. "Of course I do, but it's easier said than done, and I don't see how I can possibly get the work off my hands for two weeks, anyway." "Why, what ought you to do first?" Barbara questioned. "I ought to have a meeting of my committee of Y. W." "When do they usually meet?" "Just before supper." "Who's on the committee?" "Why, Alice March, Louise Kennon, and Marguerite " then, sud- denly, Jean said, "What are you driving" at?" "I'm going to have the meeting of the committee, of course," Barbara smiled back. "Do you mean to say that you propose to do these things for me?" Jean was seeing clearly now. "That's just what I intend." "But, Babbie, you mustn't do it. You know you haven't time, with all your work, and you'll just wear yourself out. There are plenty of other folks who can do it. I'll ask Carolyn Lewis about taking it, and I know she will. Maybe Katherine might do program committee for me, and the Journal will manage some way." Barbara smiled. "What are you smiling" at?" Jean caught her by the hand and held her. "At your utter inconsistency, Jean Lathrop." And then they both laughed. It was the spring of their Senior year and the night of the Intercollegiate Debate. The great college auditorium was crowded until there was not even standing" room left. There was an air of tense excitement over the crowd as they awaited the return of the judges. A man and a girl sitting near the back of the room were talking in low tones. "Who did you say the girl was the one who made the best speech on the affirmative?" "Oh, you mean Barbara Akin?" "Yes, the one you used to say you'd like to wake up. What did make her wake up?" "Don't ask me. Oh, yes, her roommate got sick when she was beginning her Junior year, and she did Jean's work for her, and that just showed every \. , ; . ..;.;. : one how well she could do it, so they proceeded to give her all Jean's offices. They're both Seniors now. Jean's awfully nice do you know her? A little girl, not half as good looking, but everybody in school is crazy about her. It is a queer friendship. Barbara is the most indifferent person you ever knew. "You said you knew Dorothy Mason, the other girl on the affirmative; well, she " But stillness fell over the great assembly. The judges had returned. The first person on the stage to congratulate Barbara was Jean. "O Babbie, it was splendid !" she cried, giving her a rapturous hug. "You did wonderfully, just wonderfully." "Miss Akin, let me congratulate you," some one interrupted. Jean was in bed when Barbara finally found her again. Barbara tiptoed in softly. So many people had stopped her, it had been hard to get back to her room. She breathed a sigh of relief when she finally turned out the light and crawled into bed. It was over at last. But sleep did not come after the excitement, and she lay gazing out into the moonlight. A faint sound came to her ears. Could it be a sob? "Jean," she said, sitting up in bed, "Jean." No answer. Another moment and she had her arm about Jean trying to make her lift her face to the light. "You are not crying, Jean?" There was surprised tenderness in the tone. "Jean," she said again, wondering, dismayed, "you are not crying because I won the debate?" "No, it's not that." Jean sat up suddenly. "You don't think I'd cry over that?" indignantly. "I'm glad, glad, glad because you won the debate. It's just it's just because I haven't done anything at all for the college." Jean had found her tongue at last. "It's just that while you've done all these wonderful things I've been holding my hands, taking all the college could give me, and not doing a thing except enjoying myself. There hasn't been a thing I've done that " "O Jean, Jean, dearest," Babbie had Jean in her arms now, holding her tight, "don't you know that all I ever did was because of you? Don't you know that I would never have done anything for the college, but for you? Don't you know that I'm not the one who has done all that I've done that it's been you, you, you. Why, Jean, didn't you know that?" Sarah G. Hansell. 1 3. Locals (We have been told that these following quotations would fit some of Agnes Scott's well-known faculty members. What do you think?)

Every one marches down to the lobby, fussing, and too sleepy to care what happens. But we discover that the fussing is in vain, so every one shuts up : we do not keep quiet because it is right, but because we are too sleepy to talk. The roll is called, and those failing to come either pay a twenty-five cent fine or get burned up according to theory. We are asked, no, commanded, to "hurry next time." And then we are allowed to return to our rooms. Several of the girls declare that they are always afraid a burglar has gotten under the bed, so after returning from the drill they stand in the middle of the room and just give one leap into said bed ! Xow you'll hear about the drill as it usually is not. The gong is sounded with its usual amount of noise. Then, with the accustomed amount of fussing and disorderly conduct, we descend to the lobby. Suddenly there is a giggle followed by a smothered laugh, and then there are some decidedly unsmothered ones. The excited Freshman near-by whispered loudly : "They were mean! They told those girls that it was a real fire, and so now just look!" And look we did! The center of attraction was two visitors and lo ! Mardi Gras in all her glory was not arrayed like one of these! The pajamaed maiden, with the black furs and the green hat (on backwards), held in her hands a Parisian gown, a bottle of Mary Garden perfume, and a tube of Colgate's tooth paste. Her companion exhibited a young department store on one arm, her hand bedight with jewels and dollars, which she squeezed bad enough to make the eagles scream !

"Percy'' no longer a busy man Honestly thought, as scientist can, Campuses were not the place for him. Firmly resolved, and with countenance grim, He silently passed our horizon's rim. Not a word he said as he left the town With his new black suit and his suit-case brown. And we wondered and worried for 'most a week. While our fearful questions we dared not speak; But with grim, silent dread spread the wild alarm, From the Freshman Class even up to "Arm." "On est Perci," said we, keeping back our tears ; "He is wed or lost," answered gloomy fears. You all know the rest, in the "extra" read Of the anxious things that we thought and said ; While the poster, too, showed our wishes kind, And the searching band kept them all in mind, With their lanterns bright and their faces grave, Climbing trees to seek, with a purpose brave. Then to college back came the wanderer home. But he will not tell whither he did roam. May he ne'er depart in such haste again. For we can not live through the fear and pain. Yet "writ in the legends of the past Through all our history to the last, In the hour of darkness and peril and need," When fearful hearts courage lack, Let us keep still courageous in word and deed, For "Percy," you know, came back !

"x.> %i - Sophomore Class History NCE upon a time a very young and hopeful traveler set out upon a journey through a country called Life, and by and by she came to four mountains set in a row, each a little higher than the last, and with a little plateau leading from the top of each to the foot of the road up the next. The name of the row, as you may guess, was College row, and the names of the mountains. Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior. Up the side of each went figures. The roads up the first two looked very pleasant near the beginning, but further on they grew rough and some- times steep, and there were wearisome, barren-looking places ; those leading to the tops of the second two seemed easier, and the figures traveling up them appeared far less wearied by their climbing. "Oh!" cried the girl at the foot, "surely there must be some other way to the top of those high ones than by the little plateaux. That third hill looks so interesting and so easy to climb. "How did you get up there?" she called to the girls on its side. The Junior girls turned and gave her a friendly, indulgent smile. "Some are born great," they called back loftily, and, with a wave of the hand, went on. "Oh, dear!" sighed our traveler dismally, "I shall never get there," and she looked over at the fourth hill. "How did you get up there?" she called again. The Seniors looked down and smiled, half amusedly. "Some," they said with a little shrug of their shoulders, and without stopping their leisurely pace, "some have greatness thrust upon them." "Oh!" wailed the traveler, "that isn't for me! What shall I do?" And she called at last to the girls on the second hill. They smiled back- encouragingly. "Some achieve greatness," answered the Sophomores. "Oh!" cried the girl at the foot, "perhaps / may do that, too. How may I join you, girls?" "The only way is by Freshman Hill," they cried back, "but it isn't half so bad when you've once started. Come on !" i- Ji ': J I' ' ^ So she resigned herself at last to fate and joined the crowd toiling up the lowest hill. At first the road led gently up, and there were pleasant stops along the way, but higher up it was as she had seen rough and steep. Great boulders rose up to be climbed, and often only little red zeros bloomed beside the road. Some grew discouraged and turned back; some sat down to rest and were left behind ; but most climbed bravely on. "Age quod agis," they shouted to each other, and struggled on with renewed energy. And so, at last, they reached the top and gained a resting place on Vaca- tion plateau. Very pleasant the stay there, and also very short, for all too soon they were starting another weary climb. But this time they knew better how to avoid unnecessary roughnesses, and how to grapple wisely with the unavoidable. Up and up they toiled, and though the sun grew hot and the way barren and steeper, they fought upward together bravely, calling cheerily to each other, and extending helping hands to the discouraged. Then, one day, our traveler looked down and saw another standing at the foot of the hills where she had stood not long before, and the question borne up to her was the one she herself had asked. "The only true greatness is achieved," she called back, "and the only way up here is by Freshman Hill ; but the road isn't half so bad when you've once started. Come on !" Then she turned back to her companions. "Come, girls !" she cried. "Yonder is the next plateau, and just beyond is Junior Mountain. Age quod agis! Come! Why, we can accomplish any- thing; we have tried and know we can, for are we not Sophomores?" Lucile Finney. V - ....... . _* .. , . . j..L . . / ADVICE FROM A CATERPILLAR Continued from page 57. She could hear the Rabbit outside calling: "Alice, Alice, let me in this moment." Then came the pattering of feet, and some one tried to open the door. The attempt proved a failure, and she heard it say: "I'll get through the window." "That you won't," said Alice, and after waiting until she fancied she heard it outside, she gave a wild yell and grabbed into the air outside. There was a crash and then a silence. At last came a scraping noise and the sound of many voices. .Mice was so cramped she could hardly breathe, but she stopped her gasps long enough to listen to what they said. "Here's the other ladder. . . . No, tie 'em together first. . . . Will the roof bear? . . . That I won't, then. . . . Here, Sue, the Rabbit says you must take this water and throw it down the chimney." This frightened poor Alice so that she began to shrink again. She looked about for "Fresh Spirit," but it was gone, and soon she was small enough to crawl out the door. She ran out and found quite a collection of things out- side. They all made a rush at Alice, but she ran off as hard as she could, and was soon quite safe. "Now I'd like to be a nice size again," she said, as she sat and rested. "I suppose I ought to take something, but the question is, what?" There was a large mushroom growing near her, and she considered the advisability of looking on the top of it. "For," she said, "any one so high up as that ought to be able to tell me what to take." She stretched herself on tiptoe and peeped over the edge and saw sitting there a large blue Caterpillar reading a book and paying attention to no one. At last the Caterpillar laid down the book and addressed her in a languid voice. "Who are you?" it asked. "I I hardly know just at present," said Alice, not very encouraged; "I've changed so many times." "Explain yourself," said the Caterpillar sternly. "I can't explain myself,'' said Alice, "because I'm not myself, you see." "I don't see," said the Caterpillar. "Well, I can't do anything I thought I could," explained Alice in a melancholy tone. "Can you act?" asked the Caterpillar. "I don't know " Continued on page "jo.

I'l :.Liic > Junior Class History URING the first week of September, 1911, there appeared on the horizon a small, black cloud. Many people saw this cloud and watched, with foreboding, as it grew and grew to large proportions. At last, on the nineteenth of Septem- ber, it came into contact with varying air currents, and, being chilled, broke into a heavy shower. This shower struck the campus of Agnes Scott as a deluge, where it scattered in various directions ; some parts sinking below the surface, to appear later; some gathering together, as a torrent, to make themselves known at once. The professors of the college were appalled at the sight of these drops of water, for there were already so many on hand. However, they began, uncomplainingly, the task of classifying and proving them. The different specialists had been working for years on the supply of material on hand ; some for one year ; some for two or three ; but they now turned most of their attention to this new supply, and, indeed, it was needed, for after the first days of arranging them it was very necessary to keep them from running into the wrong channels. The first year was spent in directing the course of this stream. This was rather difficult, for it always ran away with everything in sight, particularly the things intended for rival classes. The second year broadened it and taught it to receive kindly the other new drops without the usual struggle, while the third was devoted to the guidance of younger streams and the preparation for the last year, which was to make it a more grand and noble stream. This cloud had been made up of ordinary moisture, but coming through the air and coming into contact with foreign bodies had changed the compo- sition of some of the drops materially. Although different, these drops were held together by surface tension under the class name of fifteeners. On examination, many drops were discovered to be sweet, pure, and sparkling. Some were known for their strength, remaining powerful after experiencing various trials; others were renowned for their density, which would admit no foreign matter. A few drops were small and fragile, and these broke at the slightest touch, and others ran away to join more attractive streams. - ::. :; a' Daily, however, tliese little drops of water expanded, and, by rare methods, drew many others near them. By the principle of osmosis they stretched out to absorb everything they came in contact with, becoming Agnes Scott's most valuable and prized specimens. Now the long-awaited time has come when Agnes Scott has poured out her offering to the world for the year 1914, and she turns with renewed efforts and concentration toward the stream of 1915. She watches it more carefully so as to reassure herself that when it joins the great ocean of the world it will prove worthy of her name.

"I might act a little, but I'm sure it won't be right," she ventured. "Repeat 'Twinkle, Twinkle,' " commanded the Caterpillar. Alice folded her hands and began : "Twinkle, twinkle, Mr. Star, How I wonder why you are Not up in the clouds so high Like a watchdog in the sky." "Wrong from beginning to end," said the Caterpillar decidedly. "1 don't think so," said Alice. "You who are you?'' it asked again, which brought them back to the beginning of the conversation. "I think you ought to tell me who you are, first," remarked Alice gravely. "Why?" asked the Caterpillar. Continued on page 75.

"Well, I'd like to know why you're sitting on this mushroom," she said sternly. "To give advice, of course, stupid," it snapped. "If everybody minded their own business the world would go around a great deal faster." "Can't you give advice anywhere else?" she asked. "Doesn't one have to be high up to give advice?" it answered crossly. "You're very green." "Well, you're just a Junior size yourself," returned Alice, measuring it with her eye, "and I'm not green." "Quite green," it repeated, and opened its book again. As Alice walked away in disgust it called : "Come back, I have something important to say." She turned and came back. "Keep your temper," said the Caterpillar. "'Is that all?" asked Alice, swallowing her temper as best she could. "No. Be very careful to behave before the Queen and King," and be- fore she could ask it who they were the Caterpillar shook itself and crawled away. ; sil; "I didn't know there was a Queen and a King," said Alice, sitting dis- consolately on a stool. "I'm sure I'll get frightened and forget how to behave. I wonder which way I should go to get away from here." "That depends a good deal on where you want to go," said a voice, and looking up she was startled at seeing a cat sitting on the bough of a tree a few yards off. It was grinning from ear to ear, but it had very long claws and very many teeth, and she felt that it ought to be treated with respect. "I was just wondering," she began timidly, "which way I really ought to go." "Are you to go at all?" said the Cheshire Cat. "That's the first question, you know." "Well, of course," agreed Alice, looking at its curious grin, "but if I stay here I won't know how to behave when the Queen and King find me." "In that case," said the Cat, waving its right paw, "you want to go in the right direction." Alice saw for the first time that a path led straight to the right from where she stood. On one of the trees hung the sign "Y. W. C. A., 6:30 on Sunday." "But this isn't Sunday," she said. "Right, as usual," said the Cat, and vanished. Alice was not much surprised at this ; she was getting well used to queer things happening. While she was still looking at the place it had been, it suddenly appeared again. "Do you play hockey to-day?" it asked. "I'm not sure I know how," said Alice. "It's easy," said the Cat. "Game at four," and vanished again. This left Alice quite alone. She was just debating whether or not she should try to follow the Caterpillar, when the sound of several voices, com- ing from behind a great clump of trees, caught her attention, and she turned to see what was happening. She had not walked far when she caught sight of a strange trio. There was a table set out under a tree and a March Hare and a Hatteress were sitting on one side of it talking angrily, while between them sat a Dormouse, fast asleep. "You're wrong, you're wrong" they cried when they saw her coming. Continued on page 8$.

We have an enrollment of one hundred and ninety- nine members a larger number than in any previous year and we are truly blest in being able to say that these members are earnest, willing, and enthusiastic supporters of the interests of the Associa- tion. The committee work has gone steadily forward. There are one hundred and sixty-six students engaged in Bible Study, one hundred in Mission Study, showing some improvement over previous records. The budget has been increased to seven hundred and ten dollars, and the spirit of good comradeship and interest in others is being promoted. This spirit is demonstrated in the interest and influence of various conferences and con- ventions where we have been represented during the past year, and from which we have received untold inspiration and encouragement to "press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." We realize that we have fallen short of our aim, but we recognize, also, the power of the Spirit in the success that has been granted us, and we thank God for the goodness and mercy that have followed us in all our attempts "to bring every girl to Christ, to build her up in Christ, to send her out for Christ."

It was just to the left of Robert E. Lee Hall the big hall with great white columns that can be seen hollowed in the mountains, almost across the valley below. You run down by a path past the auditorium, across a long rustic bridge, up a little way, and you reach a cottage with an Agnes Scott pennant over the door an attractive little cottage with a red roof. Just inside there is a big room with a huge stone fireplace. There are rag rugs and sofa cushions, and lanterns for lights. For decorations there are daisies and mountain laurel in pitchers. On all sides, rooms open out, with two cots each, a chiffonier and a table, and you'd find trunks filling up every available nook and girls in every other place. There are visitors all day long ours is the first cottage finished, and the first one filled with girls. The people come from R. E. Hall and the tents all day, and in that way we are able to get acquainted. But one of the nicest times of all the day is after the last meeting at night, when we gather together again for our Delegation Meeting. Let's suppose it was one of the cold nights when we gathered around the log fire in the big chimney. A rug, hung over die front door, keeps out the cold air. A lantern hangs from the ceiling, but the girl with the small Testa- ment in her hand sits on a rag rug in front of the hearth, leaning forward to read by the light of the fire. There are girls on cots, lounges, trunks, and floor, but stillness falls on them all as the reading begins. One of the best things of all about the Agnes Scott Cottage is the way it binds the girls themselves together, teaching them to know and feel closer to each other in a common purpose.

A JU/ The Student Volunteer Convention December 31, 1913 January 4, 1914 ICKET to Kansas City? All right, ma'am." "You're going to Kansas City? I'm so glad to meet yon. Just isn't it going to be fine?" "Train an hour and a half late? Let's walk up to Brown & Allen's while we're waiting." Such was the atmosphere of the Old Station in Atlanta on the morning of December 30. Such a cheerful-looking crowd of young men and women, bearing variously tagged suit- cases and an assortment of heavy coats, as was the Georgia delegation to the Seventh Quadrennial Convention of the Student Volunteer Movement! And the special car to Nashville, where, by the way, we almost lost some of our party, and a special train from Nashville to Kansas City, carrying the dele- gates from Georgia, Florida, Alabama, and Tennessee wasn't it great? "Delegate" was the magic word which made friendships spring up quickly; "delegates" grew to know each other very soon. There were gatherings of state and section groups, and college songs and yells awoke many a sleepy town out in Missouri. A beautiful, friendly spirit pervaded the entire train from engine to observation car. And then, when we entered Kansas City and found ourselves a wee, wee part of a big, big crowd of people, it would have taken our breath away if there had not been, somehow, a friend for every wee part. Questions about where to go and what to do were answered before asked. And when, on 79 c - ':::-ie silhouette Wednesday night, we found ourselves in the Convention Auditorium with five thousand other people, wasn't it wonderful to hear the Lord's Prayer as it arose from that immense throng of earnest men and women? Didn't we feel that we were to see a great and inspiring vision before the Convention closed? And this vision we did see growing larger from day to day as we heard Drs. Mott, Speer, Eddy. Zwemer, and Secretary Bryan testify to the omnipotence of the message of Christ. Representatives from China, Japan, Korea, Africa, and India told us of Christianity's progress in their countries. We were reminded of our undeserved opportunities and their attendant responsibilities, and constantly it was impressed upon us that to do effective work for Christ in foreign countries, America must present a strong, really Christian home base. From the moment of arrival in Kansas City to our departure early Mon- day morning, there was not an idle moment. A hurried breakfast, a rush for seats in Convention Hall to which our "red tickets, please!" entitled us a lunch downtown, a meeting at one of the churches until time to hurry to our hostesses for dinner, back to Convention Hall to sit spellbound while great messages were delivered, and then home to try to digest all the mental food received during the day, and, while trying, to fall asleep such was our daily program. A wide-awake, consecrated, earnest, unselfish spirit characterized each session, and when we had to leave and were on our way home this spirit was still manifested in serious conversation, group meetings, and in never-to- be-forgotten gatherings of all members of our party in one car the evening before our arrival in Atlanta. Getting back to every-day work was the least bit hard, but our only regret was that every girl in Agnes Scott could not be with us. It was simply great. O. M G., '16. SILHOUETTE Georgia Students' Missionary League ANDREW COLLEGE Cuthbert, Georgia delegates Louise Halliburton Ethel McKay Irene Havis Sue McEachern Mildred Holmes Kathleen Kennedy Miss McCord, Chaperon SILHOUI Georgia Students' Missionary League X the morning- of October 27. 1913, the ding!! ding!! of seven alarm clocks, all set for five an unearthly hour waked seven girls, not to the usual odious task of preparing eight o'clock classes, but to a joyful day of experience and anticipation, a day long looked for and longed for. Let it suffice to say that we landed at Cuthbert, where the League was convening, at five o'clock that afternoon every one tired, but happy and chicken for supper. "Warm Reception and Royal Hospitality" does not begin to express it. Receptions, (linings, and all that it took to make us have the most enjovable time imaginable, were not lacking. From the very first meeting of the convention the evening of October 27th, an enthusiastic spirit for missions was aroused. From then on, every- one seemed to be of one mind and one heart. We girls of Agnes Scott can never forget the addresses and appeal made in behalf of missions by such men as Dr. Vanhoose, Mr. Ramseur, Mr. Guess, and many more. They were "eye-openers" and inspiring. It was with a feeling of keenest regret that we realized that we were holding our last service. This feeling of regret, however, was counter- balanced by an overpowering sense of joy when, on the last night, October 29th, so many volunteered to give their lives and service to the Master in the mission field. The singing of the song, "Blest Be the Tie That Binds," brought to a close one of the most beneficial and inspiring meetings ever held, and we returned with glad hearts glad because it was our privilege to go, and glad because we could bring back in our hearts the wonderful inspiration gained. 82 THE S E JLJ/ ADVICE FROM A CATERPILLAR Continued from page jJ r . "No such thing." said Alice indignantly, and sat down in a large arm- chair at one end of the table. "Your hair wants curling." said the Hatteress. She had been looking at Alice with great curiosity. "Personal remarks are in bad form," said Alice with some severity. The Hatteress opened her eyes very widely, but all she said was : "Is a raven like a grandfather's clock?" "Come, we shall have some fun now," thought Alice. "I'm sure I can debate. I don't believe it is," she added out loud. "Do you mean you think you can prove it?" said the March Hare. "Exactly so," said Alice. "Then you should say what you mean." the March Hare went on. "I do,'' said Alice. "At least. I mean what I say that's the same thing, you know." . ...,,^ ... ^ . .-..,,^ ;; "Not a bit," said the Hatteress. "You might as well say, 'I cry when I flunk' is the same as 'I flunk when I cry.' " "Or 'I breathe when I talk' is the same as 'I talk when I breathe,' " said the March Hare. "It is with you," said the Hatteress cuttingly, and they all were silent for a moment. "You have ten minutes to prove it," said the Dormouse, waking at the unusual silence. They all looked at Alice, so she began to talk loudly. "Well, a raven says 'more' " explained she. "When?" asked the March Hare. "Quoth the raven, 'Nevermore,' " said Alice, very glad she remembered her English. "What does a grandfather's clock say?" sniffed the Hatteress. " 'Forever-never-never-forever,' " explained Alice. "Then they're 'ever' alike," announced the Hatteress. "No, they're 'never' alike," answered Alice, at which the Dormouse called "Time," and the March Hare dipped her watch in the water pitcher. "How does she know, she's been asleep?" exclaimed Alice. "Thev all go to sleep," sighed the Hatteress sorrowfully. "You can't blame them." "Who keeps time?" Alice asked. "You don't know time very well," said the Hatteress, "or you wouldn't talk about keeping him." "He flies," said the March Hare. "I dare say you never kept him." "I used to beat time," answered Alice cautiously, "but I never kept it very well, though I had a calendar." "Ah, that accounts for it!" said the Hatteress. "He won't stand beat- ing. Now if you only stood on good terms with him " "He won't stand," said Alice. "This isn't your debate," snapped the March Hare. "Who asked your opinion?" asked Alice. "Who's making personal remarks now?" the Hatteress asked tri- umphantly. This was more than Alice could bear, so she got up and walked off in great disgust. "It's the stupidest I ever was at in all my life," she said, as she picked her way through the underbrush. 84 THJ 1 Id The Intersociety Debate May 27, 1913 ITH the coming of Commencement came the excitement over the yearly debate between the Mnemosynean and Propylean literar)' societies, the flying green and white, and blue and gold colors, the long lines of girls, all eager, all expectant. And this time the four debaters rose to argue the question: "Resolved, that no tolls should be paid by the American coastwise vessels in the Panama Canal." The four "fair debaters" were Emma Pope Moss and Emma Jones for the negative side of the question and also for the Propylean Literary Society, and Charlotte Jackson and Sarah Hansell for the affirmative and Mnemosy- nean side. Margaret Roberts presided, and Laura Mel Towers acted as secretary of the occasion. The debaters spoke in the following order : Charlotte Jackson, first, followed by Emma Jones ; next, Sarah Hansell, and last, the second speaker for the negative, Emma Pope Moss. Charlotte Jackson made the rebuttal for the affirmative, Emma Pope Moss for the negative. The judges withdrew. Excitement was at high pitch. After what seemed hours to some of those present, the judges returned. The negative wins. The whole school rises to congratulate their speakers the Propvleans for then victory, the Mnemosyneans for their brave fight. f ?! v ^ FfiB SILHOlEI IE ; Intercollegiate Debate Agnes Scott College versus H.

', ,. , The Queen's Garden Chapter III It was while she was stumbling along this way that she came upon the beautiful garden she had seen before. The gate stood just as it had, but it looked rather dilapidated, and. to her disgust, the beautiful flowers were all along the edge, and the center was all bare. Near the gate were three painters busily painting a sign on a large board. "Look out, Five ! Don't go splashing paint over me like that," she heard one of them say. "I couldn't help it," said Five in a sulky voice, "Seven jogged my elbow " Just then her eye chanced to fall on Alice, and she checked her- self suddenly. "Would you tell me, please," said Alice a little timidly, "why you are painting that sign?" 93 V, THE LHOl ' -; ; : " x v ' v "Why, the fact is," said Two in a low voice, "the Duchess told us to paint this bulletin-board for the game, and we were doing our best before she comes." "Who's the Duchess?" asked Alice. "Haven't you seen her?" asked Seven. "She's rather older than we Senior, you know. You'll know her, she affects very peculiar hats and gowns it's the Queen's orders." At this moment, Five, who had been looking anxiously across the garden, called : "They're coming," and flattened herself against the hedge. First came the players, next the Duchess, talking earnestly to the Rabbit, who was smiling at everything she said ; next came the Queen and King, with the whole rest of the pack behind. When the procession came opposite to Alice they all stopped and looked at her. "Who is this?" the Queen asked the Knave, who only smiled in reply. "My name is Alice, so please your majesty," said Alice very politely. The Queen of Clubs, who had been standing near, broke in : "C an you play hockey?" she asked, look- ing over the Queen's shoulder. "Yes," answered Alice, looking at the Queen rather doubtfully. "Get to your places," shouted the Queen in a voice of thunder, and the players began running about in all directions, tumbling against each other. Alice thought she had never seen such a hockey game in her life. The field was all hills and mud, and the grass hid Continued on page 101.

The sticks were live flamingoes, and the ball a small, lively little rat, that kept unrolling itself, at which the players all ran to the other part of the field and occupied the time in quarreling. The players all played at once, fighting over the ball, and the Queen could be heard calling: "Off with her head!" Alice was looking about for some way to escape, when she heard a small voice near her say : "It's a rather fine day, isn't it?" It was the Queen of Clubs. "I hadn't noticed," answered Alice, tucking her flamingo under her arm. "How are you getting on in the game?" asked the Queen, smiling sweetly. "I don't think they play at all right," complained Alice. "You've no idea how confusing it is." "How do vou like the Duchess?" was the next question she asked, as she led Alice to one side, where they were out of the game. "I don't know her at all," answered Alice. "Where is she?" "Sh " said the Club Queen, "she's under sentence of restriction." Alice look about uneasily. "What about?" she asked. The Club Queen lowered her voice. "She flirted with the King," she whispered. "I'm not surprised " said Alice, but just then she noticed that the Duchess was near, so she went on : " that he should want to." The Duchess smiled and tucked her arm through Alice's. "You can't think how glad I am to see you again, you dear old thing," said she, as she led Alice off through a gate in the hedge. Alice was glad to find her so pleasant, but she couldn't think where she'd ever seen her before. "You're thinking about something, my dear," said the Duchess. "I can't exactly tell you the moral of that, but I shall remember it in a bit." "Perhaps it hasn't one." Alice ventured. "Tut, tut. child," answered the Duchess, "everything's got a moral if you only can find it." She squeezed up closer to Alice's side. Alice didn't much like this, because the point of the Duchess' cap caught in her hair, which made it very uncomfortable. 101 ( , rf . THE "The game doesn't seem to go on very well," she said by way of con- versation. Tis so," said the Duchess, "and the moral of that is, 'Oh, it takes a little rain with the sunshine to make the world go round.' " "Somebody said," whispered Alice, "that it's done by everybody minding their own business." "Very true," said the Duchess. "And the moral of that is, 'Look before you leap.' " "Only one doesn't often leap," said Alice. "Right, as usual," said the Duchess, "and the moral of that is 'Man was not made to live alone.' " Alice considered the question a moment. "Thinking again?" the Duchess asked, scraping her cap through Alice's hair. "I've a right to think," said Alice sharply. "About as much," said the Duchess, "as Seniors have to flunk. And the m " But here, to Alice's surprise, her voice died away, and the Duchess began to tremble. There stood the Queen, regarding them with a frown like a thunderstorm. "Now I give you fair warning," shouted the Queen, "either you or your privilege must be off in half no time." The Duchess took her choice and was gone in a minute. "Let's go on to the game," suggested Alice, thoroughly frightened. "It's over." said the Queen. "Every one's under sentence. Have you seen the Mock Turtle yet?" "No," answered Alice. "Come on, then." said the Queen, and she called over the hedge to the Club Queen : "Here, come and take this young lady to hear the Mock Turtle's history. I must be off and see about the trial." "It's all a fancy," said the Club Queen. "She never executes any one. Come on." "Every one says 'Come on' here," thought Alice. "I never was so ordered about in all my life before."

"In books, or work, or healthful play." ^ ' - - EV \ - - - -. - w- - To the Class of 1914 In the misty haze of the vanished time. In the first of our college years, All aghast we stood as the days rolled by, Bringing worry, and care, and fears. Yet we bravely toiled, and we struggled on, Though all paths only seemed a maze ; And our Freshman minds quite bewildered were, By the labors of college days. Yet we came to see, as the time passed by, All the pleasures along the road ; And our hearts were glad, while our growing strength Ever lightened the daily load. So we felt our powers, and our eager minds Longed to merit unmeasured praise, And as Soph'mores grew happy, brave, and strong, Through the vic'tries of college days. Loyal Juniors then, fast we hurried on, And the path ever grew more fair ; For, as comrades true, deeper friendships came, Welded, strengthened beyond compare ; While the longed-for goal e'er inspired our hearts, As we saw it thru golden haze. And we all rejoiced in deep thankfulness For the gladness of college days. To our Senior band, through the years have come Wondrous visions of things afar ; Of the world that lies past our campus bounds, Of the gates standing just ajar. So we hear the call, see the outstretched hands, As we stand at the parting ways, And our power to give, and to help, and love, Is the glory of college days. Charlotte Jackson, '14. -"\ s~m~% r~\ C/ ! Our College World 1910-11 CCOMPANIED by loving relatives, we made our debut as Freshmen of Agnes Scott College, a little timid, a trifle confused, but inwardly courageous because of certain boxes of candy and train letters which our friends at home had bestowed on us. Certainly we tried to behave as befitting our low station in college, but we were treated so kindly, and were made to feel so at home, that we never felt very humble. By the time we were comfortably (?) settled in Math I and History I, and learned that the book store was in the Main Building, and almost knew which building was which, rushing began. High School Commencement gowns were much in evidence, for there were parties and still parties, and what a glorious feeling it was when the old girls, even the Seniors, clustered around us: "Won't you go to the Propylean prom with me?" "Do let me have a date for the Mnemosynean automobile party." "Can't you go to town with me?" "How about a little feast in my room at nine?" We all know the result of that gloriously thrilling Pledge Day. when, excited to the point of trembling voices and cold hands, we pledged ourselves to the society we chose to love and uphold. It was good for us that the Freshman-Sophomore "fight" crashed down just then, for with it came the first glimmer of class spirit and independence. It brought leaders to the front; it showed us what we could do. Meanwhile, we were receiving sympathetic letters : "Try not to be too homesick. Remember Christmas is coming, and do your best." Of course, we longed for home, but there was so much to do, so many things to see in this wonderful, new place, we had no time to lose in tears. It took us that year to learn to economize the minutes, to get system into note-taking, to make Hydrogen without blowing our flasks ceiling high oh! there are a thousand things for a Freshman brain. That is why I call the first year the Period of Preparation. 128 , ; ". - . --\ -x - ". - !.' \. 'IJL''^ <^J JL~d JL Jt M ~xr\ sr-%. Sigma Delta Phi MEMBERS Ruth Graham Blue, '14 Union Springs, Ala.

Mr. J. W. Bailey, Dairy and Food Commissioner of Oregon, stated that following criticisms \ \ from several ladies he had it tested by uis chemist but no cocaine was found. Prof. Edwin De Barr, State Chemist of Oklahoma, had never found cocaine in Coca-Cola but had foMid that drug {traces or in quantities) in 69 out of 72 substitutes (or imitations) of Coca-Cola on the market. Note that. Dr. B. D. Ross, State Chemist of Alabama, had had Coca-Cola examined by his Dep't and no cocaine was found. They did find a small amount o; caffeine about equal to what would be found in a cup of coffee. The following testimony was brought out at the trial in Chattanooga U. S. Gov't vs. The Coca-Cola Co. at which trial the Government lost. We give but these extracts from a famous pharmacologist's deposition Dr. Schmeideberg: * * * According to the communications which have reached me, about thirty grm. (one Concerning ounce) of Coca-Cola syrup is used to a glass of about 210 ccm. of the beverage. the Caffeine There might, therefore, be taken daily of this beverage 1,400 to 2,800 ccm. without which is in any fear of injury to health from the quantity of caffeine contained therein. Rather Coca-Cola might the amount of liquid and of sugar taken at the same time prove injurious by impairment of the digestive activity of the stomach. As a matter of fact, such large quantities of the beverage will but rarely, if ever, be taken. Most consumers will undoubtedly limit themselves to less. In such cases injury is entirely out of the question. Indeed, the misuse of Coca- Cola by taking it in excess, as so happens with alcoholic drinks, is in general not to be found. Not only can no well-fonndid objection te urged against the manufacture of fond products containing caffeine by the introduction of this in any form, but rather should the extension of such manufacture be regarded with favor in the interests of the public welfare. On the basis of the preceding sents a food product containing taken daily, it cannot, because xplanation, I sum up my opinion thus: That Coca-Cola syrup repre- caffeine, and that, even in the maximum quantity which may be generally of its caffeine content, be accounted injurious to health.
