EFFORT MADE TO REVIVE
CHERRY TREE AT G. W. U.
Bond Stipulations Have Caused Stu
dents to Dodge Responsibility
of Issuing Yearbook.

Efforts are being made at George
Washington University to revive this
year the Cherry Tree, formerly the
student yearbook. Howard w. Hods-
kins. a graduate, is at the head of the
movement.
Because of the faculty stipulation
that editor in chief and business man.
aser of the publication should file $500
bond to insure the payment of all
debts. the Cherry Tree being pub
not appear. no students being willing
to assume the risk.
An anomalous situation resulted. In
stead of the Cherry Tree being pub
lished, three other year books. under
different names, were printed, involv-
ing an expenditure far in excess of
what would have been required for the
publication of the Cherry Tree. The
editors and managers OF these year
books escaped the bond requirement.
All three publications were successful,
although not SO elaborate as had been
the Cherry Tree. The arts and science
department put out the Periscope; the
law school published the Res Gestae,
and the medical and dental schools had
their yearbook.
Because of the success of the three
publications. it is believed there will
be no difficulty this year in finding
the successful publication of the Cher
ry Tree The Cherry Tree is a name
that has been applied to the yearbook
since the time the university changed
it's name from Columbian to George
Washington. Formerly the publication
was known successfully as the CO.
lumbiad, the Co and the Mail. The
most successful issues from financial
standpoint were in 1911 and 1914.
The Cherry Tree is published under

What Happened to the Little
Bob White.

With his eyes tightly closed because OF
the terror in his heart. the little Bob
White with the aching. broken wing.
broken by the shot from the terrible gun
of the hunter, was being carried he
knew not where by Farmer Browns Boy.
Very tender was the way in which he
was carried, and after a while he began
to take a little comfort in the warmth
of the hand which held him. Once in
while Farmer Browns Boy would
gently smooth the feathers Of the little
head and say. Poor little chap"
Straight home went Farmer Browns
Boy. Very, very gently he bathed the
wounds of the little Bob White. Then
as gently as he could be put the broken
bones of the wing back in place. and
bound them there with little strips of
thin wood to keep them from slipping.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1915-10-23

It hurt dreadfully, and the little Bob
White didn't know what it all meant. But
he had suffered so much already that a
little more suffering didn't matter much.
and he bravely winked back the tears
and didn't SO much as peep.
When it was all over he was just put
into a box with a bed of soft, clean hay,
little dish of water where he could
reach it by just stretching out his head.
and handful of wheat, and then he was
left alone He was too sick and weary
to want to do anything but squat down
in that bed of hay and rest. He was
still afraid of what might happen to him.
but it was not such great fear as be-
fore for there had been something COM
forting in the gentle touch of Farmer
Browns Boy. He didn't understand at all
what those strange wrappings about his
body meant. but a lot of the ache ana
pain had gone from the broken wing. and
perhaps they had something to do with
this.
So gratefully he drank of the water,
for he had been burning with thirst, and
then settled himself comfortably as
possible and in no time at ali was asleep.
Yes, sir, he was asleep. You see he was
so worn out with fright and pain that he
couldn't keep his eyes open. Ever so
many times during the day Farmer
Browns Boy went to see how he was get
ting along and was so very gentle and
whistled to him so softly that his little
heart no longer went pit-a-pat with fear.
The next morning the little Bob White
felt so much better that he was up bright
and early and had made Il good breakfast
of the wheat by the time Farmer Browns
Boy came down sta RS. But 1t seemed
very queer not to be able to move his
wings He couldn't lift them even the
teeniest, ween est bit, because, you see,
Farmer Browns Boy had bound them to
his sides with strips of cloth SO that he
couldn't even try to fly This was SO that
the broken wing might get we'll and strong
again.
Now of course the little Bob White
bad lived out Of doors all his life, and
Farmer Browns Boy knew that he never
could be quite happy kept in the house.
So he made 4 wire pen in the henyard
and in one end he made the incest little
shelter of pine boughs under which the
little Bob White could hide. He put
little dish of clean water in the pen and
scattered wheat on the ground and then
he put the little Bob White in there
AS soon as he was left quite alone the
little Bob White ran all about to see what
his new home was like. You see, there
was nothing the matter with his legs.
Il can't get OUT said he when he had
been all around the pen, but neither can
any one get in. and so l am safe, and
that is something to be thankful for. This
two-legged creature is not at all like the
one with the terrible firestck, and l am
beginning to like him. ! haven't got to
fear Reddy Fox or Old Man Coyote or
Redtail the Hawk. I guess that really
am lot better off than if I were out on
the Green Meadows unable to fly Per-
haps when my wing gets well l will be
allowed to go. l wonder where my father
and mother and brothers and sisters are
and if any of them were hurt by that ter
rible frestick.'

was singing Caro- Nome" and singing
it so beautifully that not an eyelash
quivered until she was done. Beatrice
in her blue satin and lace was as love-
ly as her voice. 1t seemed to poor
longing Chrfsty that Hugo must decide
now If ever.
The weather for October was SO per-
feet, SO golden warm, so holiday en-
ticing, that Mrs. Hamilton made up an
automobile party to the big woods for
a picnic luncheon next day. Every
body was wild to go. Mr.. Kemp was
going to take his car, SO Christy found
herself included. The idea of a lunch
con in the woods charmed her. Mrs.
Kemp laughed at her enthusiasm.
IT believe you like the picnic better
than the musical" she sad. Mrs.
Hamilton has such odd ideas. I think.
Well probably all take cold and the food
will be jiggled to death from the
journey
1t was rather a long journey. Chris
ty sat beside Will Kemp and let the
wind blow her hair into a tangle She
did not know it, but she looked better
with it that way. She had on high
brown shoes. a short brown skirt and
a crisp shirt waist, with thick white
sweater to keep her warm. When at
last the big woods were reached and the
string of cars stopped it was Christy
who was able and willing to do every
thing. And presently she found that
Hugo was helping her. When the can
opener slipped and gashed her finger she
did up the wound. The other women
were afraid that the sight Of blood would
spoil their luncheon.
Beatrice Bernard was there and she did
not have good time. She sat on a
cushion, with a laprobe about her, and
said she felt cold. She was perfectly
helpless and preoccupied all day. And
Christy wondered with amazement how a
girl who could look SO perfectly angelic
in evening dress and enrapture all hearts
with her song should be SO lacking In
enchantment at an outdoor picnic.
Poor little thing. she's out of her ele-
ment in shirt waist" she thought.
"She ought not to have come"
Curiously enough. Beatrice took a great
