Trail; We came to the little cedar
bridge built BY the class OF 1920, where
the Jewell Weed grows luxuriantly.
To the good woman, past fifty, said,
as | moved branch of the weed to-
ward her, carefully 50 that the pod
would not explode prematurely; VIII
you just pick that little pod for me
take 1t between your thumb and fore
finger
She did as requested, but as the
pod exploded under her first touch,
she screamed OF course she did, and
then there was laughter and merri-
ment as she cried: What happened
Where did it co.
II was the old old trick of this
jester Of the shady woods; and | sup
pose the Jewell Weed has caused more
laughter and created more merriment
than any other plant in the Good viii
Trails.
The orange daisy is, by common
consent Good Wits flower. the Good
VII school colors being orange and
black. When Mr.. Charles ID. Hub
bard. the Connecticut artist, was about
10 paint the Good Will ROUNDED.
which has become 50 familiar in re
cent years, he made a trip to Good
VIII and spent three or -four days in
order 10 understand the prospective
pictures environment When he had
made his preliminary sketch in col
Ors. | went to his studio in GuilfOrd
Conn, To inspect it. In keeping with
the general tone OF the painting he
had placed buttercups in the fore
ground. The tone OF the painting was
beyond criticism; wished in my
heart that he might have used the
Good Will flowcr-the daisy instead
of the buttereup. But | was so pleased
with the picture in every other re-
spect that | refused TO make any crit
cism; in design, in tone, in eXecu-

that last year she was summer

the owner of the estate had placed

signs along the paths-"This way to-

signs did so offend her and a woman

are a few words-two or three-in

of interest to the passerby.
The word or words in white give
the common name of the plant grow
