CHAPTER XII.

Throughout the term Ramsey's cal
culation of probabilities against the
happening OF another Interview With
Dora seemed to be well founded. but
at the beginning Of the second sem
ester" he found her to be fellow
member of class In biology. More
than that, this class had every week
q two-hour session In the botanical
laboratory, where the structure of
plants was studied under microscopic
dissection. The students worked In
pairs, a special family of plants being
assigned to each couple; and the In
structor selected the couples with an
eye to combinations Of the quick with
the slow. ID. Yocum and II. Milhoi-
land (the latter In strange state OF
mind and complexion) were given two
chairs, but only one desk and one mi-
croscope. Their conversation was
strictly botanical.
Thenceforth II became the most
pressing care of Ramsey's life to pre-
vent his roommate from learning that
there was any conversation at oil,
even botanical. Fortunately. Fred
was not taking the biological courses,
though he appeared to be taking the
sentimental ones with an astonishing
thoroughness. and sometimes, to Fred's
hilarious delight, Ramsey attempted to
turn the tables and rally him upon
whatever last affair seemed to be en-
gaging his fancy. The old Victorian
and Victorian plague word pet
ticoat" had been revived In Fred's
vocabulary, and In others, as skirt

AMERICANS IN MAKING
vice President Calvin Coolidge

Vice President Calvin Coolidge
recently said:
1--WE must remember that we
have not only the present but
the future to safeguard our OBJ
legations extend even to gener-
atoms yet unborn. The unassim-
Hated alien child menaces our
children, as the alien industrial
worker, who has destruction
rather than production In mind,
menaces our industry"
The kindergarten is one Of our
most potent agencies for Ameri-
canization. Under Its influence
the little alien child soon be-
comes one of us, and carries In
to his home the true spirit OF
democracy. industry, honesty,
fair play and patriotism.
