Linda threw her head back, and
watched the lanterns. They were
still dancing around the pole, but
with a slower, statelier measure.
And then from the open French
windows Of the house drifted q
high soprano voice in the faint

accompanied it.
When the verse was ended, all
the Alpha O's at the little tables
took up the refrain, humnning
softly and looking soulfully at the
freshmen assigned to their tender
mercies. 1t was a heart breaking
moment for anyone not yet ush-
cred into the mysteries of the
fraternity. Linda watched the
buffoon lanterns.
The end OF the song was the
signal for a general stir about the
tables. A few minute lace hand
kerchiefs flirted out Of pockets,
and one or two Alpha O's were

A little whirr' of horror ran
around the crowd.

glued to Linda.
Then, in a second. the lanterns
ceased to dance in her brain,
She sprang up, knocking over
the folding chair on which she
had been sitting, and leaned
against the table.
She could see them all clearly

accusing eyes.

Linda stopped a moment by the

figure was lovely, and Linda
loobed her approval.
