The Evolution of Our College Uniform
By Miss Jule Tucker
IN many respects, the history of LaGrange College is unique. At the time of its
founding, there was not in all the world an institution devoted solely to the higher
education of girls and young women. A pioneer in this field of growth and develop-
ment, she naturally took the initiative in such which has shaped the thought of the genera-
tions which have followed.
LaGrange was the first Southern college to adopt a uniform for girls. She gave as
her reason for this precedent the "great saving in expenditures for clothes to be worn on
the Sabbath and upon graduation day." Insistence upon simplicity of dress and dignity
of demeanor became a salient feature of the college code. Failing in the efforts to secure
adherence to their quaint and rigid rules, a standard uniform was chosen, and all the
students were required to be uniformed in dresses of black merino with white sun-
bonnets and white ruffled pinafores. As a special concession to the beauty-loving hearts
of the young ladies, it was agreed that a white muslin, to cost no more than twelve cents
per yard and ornamented only by a black sprig or polka dot, by way of figure, might
be worn on every-day occasions.
The evolution of the sunbonnet maiden has been interesting. The black merino
gave place to Confederate Grey. A severe basque and skirt, braided in military fashion.

was surmounted by a little gray forage cap. Later, this in turn, made way for full skirts
of black cashmere, plaited about the hips and flared at the bottom, with which a short
loose sack over white waists was worn. The hat was a turban of black straw, trimmed
in black velvet, piped in red, and further ornamented with a small red wing to the
left side.
Rebellion crept in; strenuous times followed a monetary panic; we find one of the
catalogues appearing with these unique words of explanation of why the long continued
policy of a uniform should be laid aside. "Neatness and economy in dress will be taught.
No uniform will be required. We think that any attempt to force upon young ladies
uniformity of dress is opposed to this economy, because it forces them to lay aside all they
have on hand and begin 'de novo'. Calico of any color or texture and white aprons are
generally worn by the girls of the college during the week, and one or two nice dresses
for the Sabbath will be all they need."
Three years later, stays and crinoline having appeared in such extravagance, we
read that a strict uniform of black cashmere or other woolen stuff, with plain black
Oxford cap were required for all students and worn on all public occasions. The long
reign of the Oxford cap and gown was thus inaugurated and held its sway more or less
rigidly through successive generations until the present administration introduced the
custom of having a well-made suit of dark blue, of such design as is best suited to
the individual.
Well-nigh a hundred years have passed since the first demure sunbonnet maidens
daintily made their way down "College Hill" to the village church. The hill and stretch
of woodland, and the church all have given way to improvement. The winding path
down which those sunbonnets passed has become a stately avenue, and the L. C. girl of
to-day, clad in her tailored gown of cloth with her becoming hat of the latesx and most
approved vagary of fashion bears but slight resemblance outwardly to her of long ago.
But girlish hearts are much the same, whether they flutter beneath crisp fluted ruffles of
snowy lawn over black clad figures or throb against dainty chiffon and satin blouses ; and
she who wears the uniform to-day, as in the years gone by, holds the heart of the
city enthralled.
Page Eleven
r HE QUADRANGLE
But whether clad in Confederate Grey or black merino or in the latest and most
approved dictates of fashion, the wearers of the LaGrange uniform have been brave and
loyal little women; and they of this new administration will gi\e their pennants of "Red
and Black" to the breeze, conscious that she is wreathed in glory and aware that theirs
is Holy Ground. Proud because of their heritage, yet humbled because of their realiza-
tion of the greatness of the task confided to them, and knowing that their work is God's
work, and that "He never leaves His workmen unholpen in the hour of need," they go
forward into a bright and glorious future.

MISS DAISY DAVIES
President of LaGrange College.
Miss Davies was elected President in the spring of 1915,
assuming the responsibilities of her office the following summer.
While she has the distinction of being the only woman college
president in Georgia, she has already proven herself master of the
situation. She has not only won the admiration and affection of her
faculty and student body, but she is exerting a large influence for
good in the City of LaGrange, and has established a place for her-
self among leading educators. We predict a glorious future for
LaGrange College under her administration.

Hints on Editing an Annual
Start early preferably the first day of college.
Send the most stern and imposing member of your staff to demand
in a deep voice that each new girl subscribe for the 1918 QUADRANGLE.
She will think it is some required course, so get your money before Mr.
Robeson presents her book bill.
Since the old girls are experienced, different methods are necessary
threaten to report their latest and greatest demeanor to the Faculty.
If the literary editors haven't time to await the inspiration of the
Muses, write to the youngest editor of a country newspaper and he will
probably write a glowing treatise on any subject you desire.
If there is a dearth of poetry, just appeal to your most sentimental
maiden aunt for she can in all probability write more tender poetry than
the most dignified Senior or verdant Freshman in college.
Have plenty of poetry it fills up space!
Confer with the Weather Man before deciding upon the date
for making pictures.
In order to insure the popularity of your publication, warn the
photographer that the pictures must not be natural looking,
Don't expect all the editorial staff to have a part in editing the
annual. Suggest to the contributors that they need not have their articles
ready until you have demanded them the Nth time.
Don't try to excel the 1917 QUADRANGLE it can not be done!

Senior Class History
IN 1913, a large Freshman Class entered LaGrange College, promising well for the
Senior Class of 1917. Most of the Freshmen were enrolled for the A.B. course,
and they made good that year in their work; but in 1914, a large number decided
to specialize. As a result, the ranks of the Class of 1917 were greatly depleted. So
many of the class had decided to be content with a certificate or a diploma in piano,
voice, art, home economics or some other special course than when the class enrolled in
the fall of 1916, there were only five who had remained faithful to the straight
literary course.
Though few in number, the A.B. Seniors of 1917 like to think that they make up
in quality what they lack in quantity. In scholarship, in athletics, and in the social and
the religious activities of the college, they have year after year distinguished themselves.
The class has furnished presidents to both literary societies of the college, officers to the
various departmental clubs, and to the Y. W. C. A. cabinet. One of the most signal
honors conferred upon the class was the election of one of its members as president of the
student body. One member of the class was business manager of the QUADRANGLE;
another, its literary editor.
Each member of the class represents the truest type of college womanhood. These
young women realize that the history of their class, as a class, working together for the
good of the college, is almost made. Ere long their college history will be closed and
sealed, and their world history will have been begun. They realize that golden oppor-
tunities await them in the larger life, and it is with a longing to avail themselves of these
and to be true to those high principles and ideals impressed upon them during their college
days that they close the pages of their college history.
Josie Hurst.
How Time does fly ! It seems that only yesterday we Senior Specials were timid
Freshmen. Yet when we look back on all our past, we realize full well that we are at the
end of what seemed so impossible in the beginning.
As a class, we have always possessed loyalty and congeniality. We have always
stood for what we thought was right, and have had enough ambition and determination to
fight it out. So, to-day, we rejoice that we have reached the goal, of which we have
dreamed so long. The class is well represented in all the departments of college work,
proving what talent is possessed by the individual members. Five of our number have
labored together for four years, while the remainder have joined us from time to time.
We shall always hold dear the happy days that have passed, and in the days to come,
look back on our Alma Mater with fondest memories. We are grieved to think of leaving.
Too soon we will go out from our dear old college home to face the unknown future.
Though our opportunities are many and life gleams bright before us, we are loath to speak
the last farewell that will forever conclude the history of the Senior Specials of 1917.

A Reverie
O Fancy, bring again the scene
Of all the golden times at dear L. C.
O Fancy, send to me some dream
Of those fair days that used to he.
With all the treasures stored away
In the land where memories slay;
Yet have these pictures k e Pt so clear
College Hill, friends, classmates dear,
These can I see with mine own eye
Full well as in the days gone by.
How sweet to linger at Fancy's will!
But sadness steals o'er my reverie still
When J remember but how can I tell
The joy and pain of our last farewell!

Though now the President of all the
States,
I thought, Miss Davies, perhaps you'd
like to know
What's happened to my dearly loved
classmates
Of nineteen-seventeen, so long ago.
Perhaps you may remember Miss Ruth
Pike,
Through years of work, at last she's
made a name.
And rightly feels herself a very big "ike,"
While singing leading roles with Hetro-
zame.
And Josie Hurst, as probably you can
guess,
Has gone to teach the heathen, far
away.
Her last short letter said, "A wedding
dress
Please send, for I'm to be married
in May."
No doubt you've read with pride the
recent book
"Psychology of a Mother Goose
Tale,"
Which people delightedly scan in every
nook ;
This famous book was written by
Evelyn Hale. Greene.
It's hard for me to know that Annie Belle,
Who was in school as quiet as a mouse,
Now tolls the great Republican's sad knell
At Washington, as Speaker of the
House.
How glad we are to know what one has
done,
For now we speak with pride of sweet
Mardel,
Who, in the light of fame so nobly won,
Now sings the famous opera "William
Tell."
I think our smiling Maud, so sweet and
small,
Is just as happy as the day is long;
And though her husband's very, very tall.
She's always sure he'll ne'er do any
wrong.
To-day a catalogue was brought to me
Which information gave about a school.
Whose far-famed president is Mary Lee,
The little girl who never kept a rule.
One night, I went to see a movie show
And who should there appear upon
the screen,
So pretty and coquettish, don't you know.
But our most famous classmate, Clara
THE QUADRANGLE
Page Thirt\)-tJo
In college halls, the girls cut antics great
On hearing that the scholar, Frances
Black,
Will to them all her art in Math relate.
They heed, for they know not she's
a quack.
I thought I heard the strains of bridal
song
And walked up to the church in my
delight
To find that I was not entirely wrong
For there stood Olive, all arrayed in
white.
The other day I met brave Marion,
As she was briskly walking down the
street,
And heard her speech, which was the
clarion
To call all women to the suffrage meet.
Our fair-haired Mary has surprised us
all;
We thought through life she'd very
gaily dance.
And never even dreamed she'd hear the
call
To care for wounded soldiers over in
France.
And do you know that timid Helen Harris
Has been for quite a while directing
Gym,
In one of Madame Winslow's schools in
Paris,
While still she pines her heart away for
him ?
Poor Mary Bacon, we now see no more.
But often think with sadness of the fun
She had in breaking hearts all by the
score.
Before deciding to become a nun.
Of course, you often meet our friend
Bedell,
As she so gaily flits around her town,
Since she's a beautiful society belle
And modestly enjoys her great renown.
You may remember little Julia Muse,
Who liked so much to travel all
around ;
Now, as a writer for the New York
News,
She's happy as she goes from town to
town.
Dear President, don't you wish some days.
Although you're happy in your busy
life.
That we might gather from our various
ways
And be at L. C. far away from strife?

Sophomore Poem
In brightest moments of our gladdest Japs,
When heaven seems a blue pavilion o'er us;
When all of life seems noble and uplifted
And Cod and Nature speak in various ways
A new devotion crorvns our lifted brow;
We wish to live for what is good and worthy;
We dream of mighty works and deeds of glory.
And hearts once dead now form a fervent vow.
And may we not conserve our heart's renewal.
To mal(e it thrive with each succeeding hour?
And may we not revive these days in mem'ry
And mingle all our visions with their pow'r?
These days when ties of fellowship's devotion
Are strong and shall wax stronger with the years;
When class-mates now are journeying together
And sharing both the pleasures and the fears.
The friendships and the unions that we foster.
The spirit of this dear old class of ours,
Shall live to bless our lives and cheer our footsteps.
And strew our paths with brightest mem'ry s flowers.
Ruth Henderson, '19.

Freshman Hopes
When the last Freshman theme is written
And the notebooks are finished at last,
When our Freshman work is over
And our Freshman cares are past,
We shall rest, and faith we shall need it
Co home for a month or two
'Til the teachers of Sophomore studies
Shall put us to work anew.
They that worked hard shall he happy.
They shall infinite wisdom feign.
They shall try to do Sophomore work
With a former Freshman's brain.
They shall have other Freshmen to laugh at.
Freshmen in utter despair;
They shall say, "We know all about it
For last year we were there!"
Though our Freshman cares be many.
And our Freshman joys be few.
Though we struggle day and night
And it seems we'll ne'er get through;
We are wailing and hoping and wishing
For time our efforts to crown
And that someday as dignified Seniors
We may Wear a cap and gown.

The Young Women's Christian Association
"Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit, saith the Lord"
THE Young Women's Christian Association is developing an influence for good
among the students at LaGrange College. This organization not only stands for
the highest and best in college life, but serves as a center of all our religious
life here.
The work is carried on through a number of committees. Our Devotional Com-
mittee has charge of all religious services, weekly prayer meetings and all special services,
such as Thanksgiving, Easter, etc. Through our Missionary Committee, Bible and
Mission Study classes have been organized. This committee also has charge of the
systematic giving. Besides the work among our students, the Social Service Committee
is doing successful work outside the college.
Last year LaGrange College was represented at the summer conference held in
Blue Ridge by Misses Black and Rampley. A much larger delegation is expected at
the next conference, since a great deal of interest has already been aroused by the work
of the Conference Committee.
The Social Committee through its work in bringing all the girls together for their
good times has practically eliminated the "Click" spirit from among the student body.
More than ever LaGrange is characterized by prevalence of democracy.
The Temperance, Music and Poster Committees have done good work and are to
be congratulated upon the progress that has been made.
As we look back over our year's work, we see where we could have done things
differently, yet we are grateful for what has been accomplished. There has been a real
gain in the development in power of leadership among our girls, and our organization
has been in the truest sense, a Christian Association.

The Social Side of Y. W. C. A.
These glimpses of a typical "weiner roast," so dear to the heart of the college girl
bring us but a hint of the many good times for which the local Young Women's Christian
Association stands sponsor. Bacon bats, cross-country hikes, hare and hound chases,
marshmallow roasts; all bring up memories associated with rare good times and care-
free days enjoyed at old L. C. Out-of-doors, roaming along the red roads of Georgia, 01
hidden deep in the fragrant pine woods, one can more deeply realize that "the groves
were God's first temples" and sing with the psalmist,
"The heavens declare the glory of Cod,
And the firmament shorvelh His handiwork "

Jingles
" I here are two l(inds of music one which appeals to the s-o-l-e, when you dance
the tango or keep time with your foot and the other which appeals to the s-o-u-l."
"Musical people are so absurdly unreasonable. They always want you to be
perfectly dumb at the moment when one is longing to be perfectly deaf."
Within our spreading music-halls
Are teachers of our choice;
The Smith, a mighty man is he
With large and sonorous voice.
The sounds from out his brawny throat
Would make your heart rejoice.
His hair is crisp and gray and long,
His cheek is like the tan;
He looks the whole class in the face,
(Though he teaches not any man)
His brow is wet with honest sweat,
For harmonize he can.
Week in. week out, from morn til night.
You can hear the bellows blow ;
You can hear the organ pealing forth
With measured beat and slow;
And you wish the ringing of Atha s bell
That the players home may go.
But when we sit in concert hall
And organs tones are heard once more,
Mellifluous melodies will be pouring out
Above the bellows' roar ;
We Gane inspiring notes that rise
Like dust from our bedroom floor.
Maidens on their way from school
Look in Miss Mueller's way;
They love to see her pleasant face,
To hear their teacher play;
But most of all they like to hear
"Vat" she may "haf" to say.
Who goes on Sunday to the church
And hopes to see the boys
Can hear the parson pray and preach;
Can hear again their teacher's voice;
Seeing only the village choir,
Nor does this make their heart rejoice.
It sounds to us like a siren s voice,
That note so true and clear,
For when Miss Berta wields the bow,
We may laugh or shed a tear;
And when the orchestra plays a tune,
Words can't express not near.
Toiling, rejoicing, sorrowing.
Alone through life she goes;
Each morning sees her tasks begin,
Each evening sees them close;
Someone scolded, someone praised.
And Miss Maidee s earned her night's repose.
Thanks, thanks to you, our worthy friends,
For the lessons you have taught!
By us on the vibrant chords of life
May harmonies be wrought;
May each of us with skillful hand
Give back some tutored thought!

Dramatic Club Purpose
The Dramatic Club is organized for the purpose of stimulating interest in, and
creating artistic interpretation of the drama.
The plays of Galsworthy, Yeats, Maeterlinck, Rabindranath Tagore, Oscar Wilde,
and other contemporary dramatists are studied.
To celebrate the Shakespearean Tercentenary, "Much Ado About Nothing" was
presented on the College Campus; later in the year, "She Stoops to Conquer," and other
bright college comedies were produced. Many of the weekly recital programs include
half-hour plays directed by the members of the Dramatic Club themselves, as only in
this way can the practical side of directing costumes, lighting, and the many problems
contingent upon the production of plays be mastered.
Original work is encouraged ; short sketches are written and presented from time
to time. Among these "The L. C. Girls of 1865-191 7" is soon to be presented in public.
Plans are also afoot to give "Rose O' Plymouth Town," a Puritan costume play, early
in the spring.

Upon the heights of Georgia s hills,

Cherishing the tie that binds.

Who have dwelt within her halls.
Women, true with strength of purpose,
Standing staunch where duty calls.
Chorus
To old L. C., our dear L. C,
We pledge our hearts in loyally,
For with our lives We'll sing thy praise
And ever high thv banner raise,
LaCRANCE! LaCRANCE! three cheers for thee.
Since thirty-three, LaCrange has wrought
By her founders budded Well;
O'er her swept war's desolation
But her spirit naught can quell.

Wave its folds across the sf(y.
Grounded deep in truth and culture.

THERE is no phase of our college life that presents as many wholesome, desirable
features as carefully supervised athletics. Because of this, it has been the policy of
the Athletic Association to build up this department of student activity until all
indoor gymnasium work has become well supplemented by outdoor sports and games.
From the viewpoint of climate and location, LaGrange is particularly favored. Mild
temperature encourages even the most sluggish disposition to seek the out-of-doors during
all seasons of the college year, while the high elevation, and well-graded campus afford an
athletic field, adapted to a great variety of sports.
The LaGrange slogan in athletics has always been, "Participation by the many
rather than over-development of a few." Accordingly, there have grown up inter-society
and inter-class contests in which a large per cent, of the student body is represented. By
practicing to represent her class, the college student becomes enthusiastic over basket-ball,
volley ball, captain ball, battle ball, indoor baseball, tennis, track events and all the other
forms of friendly rivalry.
The Athletic Association helps to direct and finance these forms of student activity,
fostering always the highest standards of honor, fair play and true sportsmanship among
its members.

Clippings From a Freshman's Diary
L. C, September 1 2.
For the first time in all my sixteen years, I have decided to keep a diary. They say
that although most girls start them at intervals of about a year, they never last but a month
or so. It may be true but I believe "in after years," as the books would put it, that I'll
need it to remember all the new things I've seen to-day and all the girls I've met. Of
course, I knew that there were lots of girls at college, but I didn't know there were quite
as many as I have seen this afternoon. The halls were filled with them and they are
strolling around on the campus now, in twos and threes. I'd love to join them but some-
how I just can't.
If mother were here, she'd show me how to make this room more like a bedroom.
As it is, it looks like a great white cell just like dozens of other cells on this hall, with
white iron beds and a table, dresser and chairs, with my trunk in the center of them all.
I wonder if cook forgot to feed my puppy dog at dinner time and if mother is
sitting with dad out on the cool dark front porch.
But here comes a whole bevy of laughing, singing girls into my room. I must make
them welcome.
September 14.
Oh, what perfectly wonderful times! No one to look at this room now would be-
lieve it was the same room it was day before yesterday. Peggy has come and she makes
all the difference in the world. She is to be my roommate. Her name really is not Peggy
but Miss Margaret Drusilla Duncan I didn't find out until this morning.
THE QUADRANGLE
Page Eighty-six
She came about nine-thirty night before last, just after the girls had left my room,
when I was beginning to feel all lonely. In five minutes, she had the beds made up with
white linen and fresh bright scarfs on the dresser and table. Not once did she stop laughing
and talking while she was doing it, yet I believe now that she felt as bad as I did. She is
just the most fun in the world, all the old girls are crazy about her.
^ ^ *f' rfc $m Si Si }&
September I 7.
What a confusing whirl of matriculation (they call it), bells, classes, and announce-
ments of what and when and how to do! But at last I'm beginning to see some rime and
reason to it all, and really find most of my classes in the right room at the right time.
We had such a good time getting acquainted all around tonight. The Young
Women's Christian Association it's one of the greatest things in college Peggy says gave
a reception in honor of all the new girls. The old girls all made dates with us and wrote
their names down on our programs so we would know who they were. I am beginning
to feel as if I really have become an L. C. girl.
September 20.
"To be, or not to be, that is the question." We learned that last year in English,
and now I'm beginning to understand something of what Hamlet meant when he said it.
For the life of me I can't decide whether I'd rather be a Mezzo or an Irenian, there are
so many sweet girls in both. I went to the Irenian program and party last Saturday, so
I guess I'll wait and visit the Mezzos tomorrow night, before I decide.
September 30.
My, but I am tired tonight, Little Book, but it certainly was worth it. I'd often
read about Marshmallow Roasts, but I never did go on one myself until to-day. Nearly
everybody in college started out right after classes this afternoon, and we walked along
in groups until we reached some inviting pine woods. We walked way into the very
depths of them, and collected a lot of dried limbs and twigs on the ground. What a beau-
tiful bonfire we had in almost less time than I can tell about it. We all had long sticks
on which to roast the marshmallows. I never tasted anything so good ; they were almost
better than that five-pound box of Nunnally's that Bob sent me on my sixteenth birthday.
How gorgeous the sunset was all the while we were walking home!

October 9.
Monday, with its domestic duties to fill the morning, and a shopping expedition
down town in the afternoon. There isn't much to do after one has bought curtains, and
other trimmings for one's room, but the girls must have their college specials and a trip to
the "movie." Tonight, there was a recital, after which came an open session. We all
gathered in the parlors and met the young men of LaGrange, toward whom many eyes
Page Eighty-seven
THE QUADRANGLE
had been turned longingly during the program. The first person I met was merciful
me! I've forgotten his name. Anyhow, he had the most beautiful blue eyes, and sweet
smile. We talked a long time, and he is going to ask to call. The light bell is ringing,
but I am so glad I could tell you, Little Book, Peggie would think I am getting
sentimental.
October 30.
Truly, the ghosts did walk tonight! We had the most attractive Hallowe'en party
in the Gym. It was all decorated in pennants, autumn leaves, corn stalks, pumpkins, and
colored vines. The girls were all masked in sheets and looked so "spookey " stealing
around in the dim light. A large number of town friends came, but the first person I
saw was Len, but I had a hard time finding out what his name was, to keep him from
knowing that I had forgotten it. We had our fortunes told, lunched on lemonade and
weiner sandwiches and roasted marshmallows down in the Demon's Den. He says he is
going to get up a serenade next Wednesday night. Can't decide whether I like him
better than Bob or not.
November 2.
Study, study, study, all day and Gymnasium in the afternoon. How time is
flying! * * * Just as I was beginning to write, Little Book, I heard musical strains
from the Quadrangle. Peggie and I dropped everything and rushed to the window. We
could see a darkey quartette under the electric light, and shadows moving around under the
trees. I think I saw Len, but I wasn't real sure he was there until they played "Home,
Sweet Home," and the boys started off of the campus. Do hope we have another "open
house" real soon.
November 5.
Date night! Len came!! And I never passed such a short evening before.
November 24.
Thanksgiving Day ! and away from home. I never imagined that I could swallow
a bite away from home and Father and Mother on Thanksgiving Day, but before I
realized it I was having a gloriously good time. The whole student body was divided
up into two squads, the hares and the hounds. The hares, in which group I belonged,
started about fifteen minutes before the hounds. We left a broad trail of white scraps of
paDer behind, but we doubled and re-doubled on our trail until we felt sure it would
take some very sharp-scented hound to trace us. We passed several nerve-racking
moments at times but we succeeded in eluding our pursuers and reached the College
Hill safely, nearly half an hour before the hounds. A most delicious dinner was
awaiting us and the amount that we all consumed' was shocking. A "Movie Party" in
the afternoon, and a good "get-together-time" among the girls at night completed our day
of frolicing. So, good-night. Little Book, I'm too sleepy to write more.

December 14.
Little Book, I can't realize that nearly a whole month has passed since I talked to
you; but tonight I am too excited to hold a pen in my hand. I'm going home tomorrow,
tomorrow, tomorrow keeps racing through my brain and I am fairly spinning around.
I never had as many happy dreams for Xmas before. Joy and bliss!
* * * * *
January 3.
Happy New Year, Little Book, for here I am back at school. It was lots harder
to leave home this time than it was last fall, for then, I had many undiscovered worlds to
conquer, and now I see much work before me and exams staring me in the face. But
Father and Mother are so anxious for me to do well, that I must not disappoint them.
So here's for the girding on of "the whole armor" and getting down to battle with
that Latin!

January 27.
Circus to-day at L. C ! Posters greeted us everywhere to-day, announcing the
attractions of the wonderful performance to be held in the Gym at night. Of course,
every one was in a fever of excitement. Peggy was to be in the show but she would not
satisfy my curiosity, merely laughing in a tantalizing manner whenever I tried to find out
something. But at last, the wonders were all revealed ! A most wonderful band,
resplendent in red and white uniforms, agile acrobats, tumblers, strong men, fat women,
tall women, wild women of Borneo, plantation darkies, pink lemonade, weiner sand-
wiches, etc. what an array of attractions, dear to childish hearts. Everyone had a
merry time, and voted L. C.'s first circus a great success. Haven't seen Len for a long
time, it seems to me, but next Monday will be calling night.
February 14.
St. Valentine's Day ! I received lots of letters and postals to-day, a box of candy
from Bob, and flowers from Len. So sweet of every one to think of me. There was
another attractive social time tonight, a Valentine party. Red hearts in evidence every-
where, and a big valentine box running over. Peggy and I had an armful, but we could
not guess who had sent most of them.

February 26.
Little Book, it seems as though I never record anything but good times, but those
are the ones I want to remember most. Every one expects college to be made up largely
of work, but I want you to be like the sundial in our garden and record only the happy
hours. We celebrated Washington's Birthday in the Gym tonight. We had the cherry
Page Eightv-nine

tree, George, himself in an abbreviated edition, and many Colonial dames and gallants,
who entertained us with the stately minuet and lancers. The girls all froliced to their
heart's content.
March 7.
The day of the basket-ball game! Our girls had not had much practice but they
certainly did give the High School champions one warm afternoon. Luck was against
us as far as score was concerned, but our girls played a fine game and certainly did
deserve their Movie party afterward.
March 16.
Plenty of hard study to-day in order to be ready to attend the Concert given by The
New York Artist Trio tonight. The program was splendid but I believe I liked the
work of the violinist best. "Open House" afterward, and I talked to Len for a long time.
March I 7.
Inaugural party tonight! A mock affair representing the gathering of all nationalities
in Washington to view the inauguration of the President. It was just as clever as it could
be, and while the President is not named Wilson in real life, he was equal to the occasion.
Woman's Suffrage was well represented!
March 31.
April Fool! Since the first comes on Sunday we celebrated tonight by being just as
foolish as a lot of girls can be sometimes. We all dressed backward, went to the party
backward and had refreshments first instead of last. If one has any troubles which she
would like to forget, let her go to an April Fool Party.
April 19.

How the time is flying! Summer has come with a vengeance, and Commencement
is just a little over a month away. How happy I shall be to go home, yet I shall miss
college life more than I ever dreamed I would.
May 5.
Peggy has invited me to visit her after college closes. She is going to have a house-
party of six girls. I know I can't wait for the time to come, I know we shall have such
a gloriously good time.

Baccalaureate sermon to-day. It impressed me very deeply. It has been such a
happy day, hut every one seems to feel the excitement of commencement. Only two
more days.

Good-bye, Little Book, I am going to pack you away until next fall. Everything
is finished and every one is leaving tomorrow. It has been a happy, happy year at old
L. C, and already I'm beginning to plan for next year. I must go tell some girls, who
are leaving on an early train, "Good-bye." Au revoir, Little Book.

What's in a Name?
(A Romance in Which the Truth Eakes Out)
IN Arnett, a village of Georgia, where the cotton grows, there lived Mother McRee and
her young daughter, Lurline. Nearby lived Patrick and Kelley McDonald, blacksmiths
by trade. They were Hale and Hardy fellows, getting much Gane from their busi-
ness and Owing (s) no man. Mother McRee, as she was using the Doster brush in her
front Hall one morning Saye-d to her daughter, "I wish you would Marie one of these
brothers." Then, Lurline Baird her secret. She loved Phillips Edwards, a Poer Taylor
from the neighboring village of Humber, and she would marry none other, were he as
brave as Lord Nelson and as learned as Carlyle, and able to give her Holmes with marble
Collums. She objected, "Pat's Harris gone and Kelley has to Ware a wig. I'd rather
marry Phillips and live on Bacon." Her mother replied, "You will me Rob-e-son, a
rich son. Perhaps their hair will Grogan." The daughter, Chaffin under restraint, said,
"You always Henderson."
One day, Lurline strolled down to a Greene (Be) dell in the Mayfield, where the
Daisy and Iris grew, in order to Muse over her problems. Phillips saw her and thought
"Bow-den and worship her. Now I can (h)Erwin." Eilleen and hungry Bullock, des-
tined for Veal, grazing in the field, was seized with the same idea and went toward the
unsuspecting maiden. The hero offering the Olive branch to the beast, missed him a Shaver
two. Before he could Turner round, the Bullock had knocked Lurline on the Moss. Her
arm was cut and Bledsoe that Phillips offered her Wmslow's Soothing Syrup.
It was late and (Mc) Clouds were appearing and it looked like Rains, but he Tucker
in his arms and they started for Virginia. Although there was many a Hilda climb, his
strength almost gave out because she weighed many a Pound. The Kurfees bell rang.
It was dark and they needed a (B)lanton. However, they succeeded in reaching Kirk
Patrick and aroused the Abbott. He heard their story and showed great Clements (y),
believing it was Wright to marry them because only the Goodwin "and," he added, "I
hope you 'Rampley repaid for the trouble you've had."

THE MOST COMPLETE PRINTING PLANT IN THE SOUTH
ante
THE COLLEGE ANNUAL
that record of events covering the
HAPPIEST PERIOD of one s life, is the
highest form of Printing that ever reaches
a press, but unfortunately is usually re-
garded as a side line. Neither the high
quality of materials and workmanship, nor
the special attention to details and de-
sign all requisites of the TRUE AN-
NUAL can be obtained without
A SPECIAL DEPARTMENT
The Foote & Davies Company points
with pride to the fact that it has the only
department of this kind in the South,
established for the express purpose of
creating the ANNUAL BEAUTIFUL.
Those engaged in this department appre-
ciate what the College Annual represents,
and expend their entire energy in an
effort to produce "True Art." The first
thought is to get the Editor's ideas and
