Telephone 154 ♦ E»eoe»»e»e»»»e»»Mee»ee»ee i PERSONAL MENTION A GARDEN A little garden is the eign That man believes in God above, And for the lovely things and fine Has room within His heart for love. I never see a pansy bed Or rose in blossom in a yard, A tulip with a yellow head, But that house kindly I regard. There dwells a man, I tell myself Who trains a summer vine to climb; Despite the age's strife for self. For beauty here he still has time. Last cynics sneer that men are base And sordid seekers after gold, A litlte garden is the place Where man’s affections we behold. A little garden bright with bloom With all the beauty that it brings, Is proof ’’that someone’s heart has room , To cherish nature’s lovely things. - —Selected.

She then discussed the problems of Freshmen and handled her subject in quite a humorous, in- telligent and sympathetic manner. She also scored parents Yor misdi rected emphasis. Miss Kennedy ex plained the tone of Freshmen letters: “This is a horrid place. There is no one here who really knows how to teach,” and added that high school teachers might do much to relieve the sad plights of Freshmen. She also urged that parents form a tri angle with pupils, high school teach ers and with Freshmen and the dean. Miss Kennedy urged that pupils be made responsible before they reach the college age so that the word might hot be so pronounced, f There is a deep gulf between last year in high school and first year in college, and the vast majority of pupils re ceive severe jolts, she said. The Woman’s Club feels that it has in deed been honored and the only regret is that all mothers could hot have heard Miss Kennedy. The November meeting will be in charge of the Library Committee.

I E Uncle John Of ^course, there may be reasons fer a Teller’s uppish ways, when the right to win distinction paves the road to better days,—and I don’t be grudge my rival if he swaggers jest a bit—for, if I can’t be magnanimous, 111 simmer down an’ quit! And still—there is accasions when Fd criticize a friend, when the means he takes advantage of, don’t jestify the end; fer instance—here’s Simp Wiggleton, who don’t know “gee” from *'haw”—he’s learnt to play bull- fiddle in the Hickville Orchestrav{. : . Now, I don’t envy Simp at all—for this here country’s free,—and the world don’t stop revolvin' when he fails to speak to me—I only mention Simp’s case to show how men may reap—if they sieze the opportunity when glory comes so cheap! 1 e o E E E E 1 l E D 0 E 0 I E E E E E E til E E E E E E E E fn E t=jr=Jr=ir=jB=i[=i=if=ir — r—- \ \ New Gats end Drases WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY AND FRIDAY A PRESENTATION of the best Parisian and New York styles in the newest Dresses and the newest Coats.
