Anne My Dear:
At the very beginning Of this letter
let me say that it is going to be an
incoherent and very Jumpy epistle. for
promised to write you about college
life lust as I find it-and whoopee,
I find there's nothing calm and co..
herent about being college freshman
If you with your methodical soul
could behold the room in which I am
writing you'd have delirium tremens
on the spot. My roommate and are
living a. la-Boheme. Clothes, hair
brushes, shoe-trees, books. hairpins,
soap and beds are all so mixed up
that we go to bed on the hair brush
and wash our faces with the shoe
trees. You see, our first week here
in the pursuit of intellectually hasn't
left us any time for fixing up our ma
terial abode. However all the other
new girls are living in a similar state
of upheaval. so we don't mind as long
as we aren't the only ones living like
heathens.
Now to get town to the real thing.
Anne dear. I am in love- Oh no. it
isn't the handsome hero of MY dreams
who has appeared on the scene; 1
simply mean that I am in love with
Washburn College. This first week
has been. as / said. rather jumpy
but oh. it's been jolly. OF course we
freshmen are decidedly verdant, and
most of us are rather scared and a
few of US have shed some briney drops
when we have stopped to think about
home-but all that is to be expected.
The Big Sister Move.
We new girls are called Little Sis
tiers" and the Y. w. girls from last
year are our big Sisters" They have
taken us to enroll, introduced US to
people and seen that we haven't been
lost in the crowd. The captain of the
Big Sisters has won our hearts. Her
name is Margaret Tillotson, and she
has been wonderfully capable in TAX
ing care of US.
Wednesday night was an occasion
which I'll never forget, The Y. w.
had a t'Mystery Ramble." We all met
In front of the library little before
dusk and -ormed a procession led by
Mrs. Womer. the presidents wife. We
wandered all over the campus. and
were shown the buildings where we
would have classes, and other places
of interest, It was dark when we
passed Rice hall and as we turned into
a little side path we saw short dis
lance ahead camp fire surrounded
by girls. They were singing wash
burn, Washburn We Love Thee Well,'
and the picture they made there in the
freight among the big old trees with
the stars shining down was one 1 will
always remember. The new girls
Joined hands and formed an inner
circle aroun.i the campfire. We sat
on the grass and sang and listened
to some inspiring little talks by the
older girls; at the close we sang very
softly, Now the Day Is over, Night
Is Drawing highland as the last
notes died away someone in the dig
lance sounded taps. How clear and
beautiful were those bugle notes as
they came to US thru the pine trees.
After a moment of silence our Big
Sisters all hoped up and brought us
ice cream cones. About o'clock We
said goodnight and we dormitory girls
