But watch, my dear, for little claws.
That Pearl has hidden in her paws.
There stands camel large and strong,
waiting for those who pass along,
lis Gertrude in the same old path.
Who bore us o'er the sands of math.
Behold l see handsome mule,
Prancing along as if to school.
AT once it stops, fatal time,
Jamima's fault we all do find.
Now tripping gayly in the way,
A chattering parrot brightens the day.
So Lillian still the life of the class.
Cheers us daily as we pass.
Next l saw modest mouse
Moving slowly through the house.

That 1T was surely Thelma Hart.
Above roar of lions so loud.
Above the wrangle of the crowd.
! hear the mocking so gay,
Sweet Elizabeth charms the way.
Clinging to a pole so high,
Many monkeys l do spy,
Just like jennings day by day,
Neglecting better things for play.
A little dove admired by all,
we see beneath the canvass wall.
Reminding us of Lizzie Mae,
Who always walks the better way.
In the last cage I did see,
A tiger as it seemed to me.
But 10! l opened quick the door,
And found our Sadie Barnado.
On a perch pole did sit,
And watch my friends stroll in the
pit;
Suddenly 1 gave a howl,
For l was just big old owl.

WOMAN'S PART IN THE PRES
ENT CRISIS.
Lizzie May Estes.

Never in the history of the world
have woman's opportunities been so
great as at the present. Never have
her responsibilities been such as the
present crisis thrusts upon her. In
the distant past woman was held in
absolute subjection. She was even
yoked to carts by the side of dogs and
oxen. The pagan idea of woman was
that she was the slave of man, his
inferior; but with Christianity came
the idea that woman is mans equal:
and as never before she has the op-
portunity Of proving herself worthy
of the place in which Christianity has
placed her. This present world crisis
is woman's opportunity.
Woodrow Wilson. our great Presi-
dent, has the right conception of ma
tional duty. He appeals to the farm
er, banker, merchant, miner, railroad
man, housekeeper-one and all to help
in this great conflict. In his broad
idea of conscription his appeals
should come as direct to the women
as to the man who must face the shot
and shell. 1t is true the woman can
not go to the front and fight, she can
not man ships, dig trenches and COM
mand armies, but without going be-
yond her own doors she can render
service to the nation which is as real
as that rendered on the field of battle.
Woman can stay at home and send
husband, brothers and sons; she can
do home nursing particularly among
the families of wage-earning parents,
where the father has enlisted and
where the mother must provide.
Thousands of women will be COM
PEELED to go out to work if the hus-
band Is called to the defense of his
country. Their children will be left
to themselves unless some patriotic
woman comes in and cares for them.
Woman can encourage the soldiers
at the front by sending them encour-
aging and inspiring letters. This is

Lillian Malone.

Dear friends, one and all. in the
most impressive way am to show
you tonight how absolutely impossible
IL Is to welcome friends. My ambi-
ton to make you feel that you are
where we delight to have you, casts
upon me task too stupendous; for
my lips cannot frame to speak the un-
seen, restless and troublesome hone
OF my heart. Years ago Tennyson
expressed it we'll when he said:
would that my tongue could utter,
The thoughts that arise in me-"
The word welcome" is every mans
"Shibboleth"; for no man has ever
said it in such a way that it's full
meaning was conveyed to them whom
ne would welcome. I borrow the
words of that clever hostess who pro-
posed the enigma:
MY first I hope you are:
My second see you are;
My whole I know you are!"
For after all our fine words, our
lofty sentiments, and high sounding
phrases how much more can we really
put into this greeting to our friends.
= We hope you are well, we see you are
come; and we know you are welcome!
10 you, dear friends, this NAV be
indeed a pleasant occasion, for we
shall certainly do our best to make it
s1s 2gt 7 q, best, i viii! be only one
ment to you, while to US it is and must
be the climax of all our past expert
ences. Tonight we feel that we really
plant our feet upon the summit of
the Mount of Vision of which we have
dreamed and for which we have stead
lily climbed!
We ask then, dear friends. to be
glad with us and for us, as we enter
upon the program of the hour, know
that we are all most earnest in assur-
ing you of our joy at having you with
us. Know, too, that I, in the warm
inspiration of your presence, am most
sincere in telling you, in the name
of my classmates, how truly glad we
are that you are here. We hope that
you may all feel that it has been good
to be here with US tonight, and may
see in all we do and say some assur-
ance of your welcome, even while
realizing that, as a class we cannot
well ask you to "Come again."
