Mrs. J. G. Green of Boise presents
the subject of "c0lor hunger" in a
way that explains why SO many peo-

this also explains why so many pieces

my mind to that. But even if 1 am
not going to marry. I am not going

l have decided that, and 1 have also
decided that the way to do it is to
Keep in touch with young life Since
L am to have no children of nv own
am going to try to be as interested
in and as much with my girl friends
children as possible
That is the decision that a young

rather embittered and seIf-suf1cient
young person which she was then, that
her acquaintances are continually say
ing to each other:
What has come over Louise? She
has improved So"
And that decision is the secret.
Isn't it a splendid one?
Think of the people that have been
affected by it.
There are Louise's friends who today
enjoy her bright, jolly presence.
whereas year ago they almost
avoided her rather caustic, self-suffi-
cient ways.

words at having their daughter so
much happier and more contented.
There are the half a dozen of her
friends children who have learned to
call her Aunt Louise" and to rush
to the door to greet her whenever she
comes to see them.
And best of all, there is Louise her
self who is replacing discomfort and
dreariness and unrest by contentment
and peace and serenity
remember years ago hearing
very fine unmarried woman of As or
so say, as she looked at another wom-
ans baby:
That's the hardest thing in my life
to me. l don't mind so much being
called an old maid. 1 don't mind so
much not being a wife, but the terrible
thing is to think 1 shall never be a.
mother-that no little boy or girl will
ever say that dear word mother to
me-
1t seems to me as if deep down in
her heart every unmarried woman
must have the same feeling. and I
cannot think of anything finer than
my friends determination to be
mother by proxy, since she cannot be
real one.
1 wonder if there are not some UNI
married women among my readers
who might make their own and their
friends lives sweeter Ey adopting
that resolution.

DEAR OLD COLLEGE DAYS+V.
Besides DR.. Murlin, the president of
the school, one of the most remarkable
characters at Baker university was
Professor Parmenter. He was a sort
of a hero in my eyes, and L thought
his quaint humor and philosophy was
even better than that of Bill Nye,
who. / must confess, had been my
great source of inspiration up to that
time.
And when a Baker student thinks
of Professor Parmenter he thinks OF
his buggy. 1t was as ancient-and as
strong constitutional -as the wonder
full 'one horse shay which was made
the day of the Lisbon earthquake and
last about a hundred years, accord
ing to the poem. At the school there
was a saying, that Men may come and
men may go, but Parmenter'S buggy
goes on forever L think that H. c.
Hepworth, principal at the Garfield
school here, then at B. Z, originated
the quotation, but I wouldn't swear
to it.
"At any rate, outside of school hours
wherever you saw Professor Parmen-
ter, his buggy was never far away. He
realized that the vehicle was suffering
from old age, but he didn't seem to
mind. I remember that an eX-Student
speaking a chapel said: L notice a
great many changes since was here
many years ago, but DR.. Parmenter's
buggy is the same And the professor
laughed at the remark as nedrIlly as
any of the students.
''They, in their heart, liked him, al
though he was rather gruff sometimes
in the class. He used to say that
there were only two reasonable ex-
cuses for missing class: Having the
smallpox or having been kicked by a
mule, and only the latter reason or
natural stupidity would excuse "a stu
dent for not having good lessons.
Nevertheless he used to encourage the
students to take recreations and said
that a person whom he called a dig
who did nothing but study-would
never amount to anything. of course
not he would remark. "A dig will
never get anywhere, he won't have
time
@Dr. Parmenter, as I have mention
ed. in another article, taught higher
physiology. He was famous for his
aminations for which only a minute or
two were given for answering each
question. He used to say: When you
! get out into the world you won't have
all day to answer the questions put to
| you. After you leave here, 1 don't
/ care if you forget which side your
heart is on, or whether you know the
stomach, but 1 do wish every one who
has been with me will be ready for the
| queries which life will put to him with
! merciless rapidly.
"He was sarcastic-almost cutting
/ at times-and yet his face was such
| that a person would instinctive1y turn
| to him in need. Bill Black.
