TIED GIRLS TO TREES
BUT JUNIORS WERE ONLY PAY
ING BACK" SENIORS.

BALTIMORE April 2o-Tled to leafess
trees and cold. hard posts at the ghostly,
CHASTITY hour OF am. Thursday. seventeen
seniors OF the Maryland College for Wom-
en-, at Lutherville, watched the junior class
hold their annual feast on the campus,
While several members OF the faculty stood
by trying in vain TO interfere.
1t certainly was cruel of those forty
juniors who sat down To the spread IN tho
glare of lamps and Japanese lanterns guar
anteed to keep away all spooks and mon
sters OF the Mysterious darkness but the
seniors brought it all on themselves ono
OF the main things In a college-psrticu-
larly one where young women are cdl-
cated-is the UNFOLDING of traditions, and
II was the desire OF the juniors 10 do
when the seniors brought the trouble
about.
For years it has been the custom FOR each
class IN its junior year to hold a feed
between midnight and dawn. There was
nothing left for the juniors TO do this year
but carry out the old custom. They eed
that the feast should be held Thurs day
morning in the wee sma' " hours. when
the "busaboo hovers about and melo-
dramatic villains steal pretty young girls.
1t was daring thing to do, but they did
1t. With hearts beating like triphammers
they made their way to their beds.
They little dreamed that the watchful
pointed time when each Junior was 10 dis
play her nerve each found the door TO the
room locked. Soon the fertile minds rea-
soned out the situation. They had been
tricked real meanly. too. 1t was "A dcep-
laid plot, and the seniors were responsible.
they knew. "Gumshoe'' methods We're re-
sorted to. Locks We're picked I'm the still
ness of the early morning with a clever
ness which would battle even "A real de-
tective. The more daring climbed out win
dows and made their way to the campus
by the outside route.
When the class had assembled the sweet
meats and good things spread upon
the campus and the lamps and lanterns
were lighted. AS soon as the juniors had
fixed themselves comfortably about thelr
improvised table the seniors dashed upon
them with whoop that stirred the old
college walls.
Then there was a battle. 1t was short,
but interesting. The juniors outnumbered
the upper-class women and We're soon
dragging their captives off to convenient
trees and posts. From the points of their
captivity the seniors not only suffered the
pangs created by squint at goodies Just
beyond their reach, but the taunts OF the
juniors We're anything but pleasant.
Members of the faculty were awakened
and they really wanted to break W the
feast, 1t Is said. but there We're forty
Juniors When the food had disappeared
and the casswomen felt they had suffi-
GENTLY lowered the prestige of the scnors
they released their captives. But before
the bonds were loosened each senior was
forced to promise to behave in the future.

the Mueller act, which authorized the city
of Chicago to issue. certificates for S15, 900 =
Geo with which to purchase street railways,
