Three Hearts

At bridge this afternoon, 1 heard
Madge say,
Two babies wouldn't keep this
girl away"
And Ethel groaned: Should think
she'd get a nurse.
Winding two little kids what
could be worse?"
They spoke of Anne, who had fore
gone their bridge
To spend her afternoon with Mite
and Midge:
Midge with her cornfower eyes
and auburn hair;
Mite with his one year-older,
chubby air!
Two years and three. In the be-
ginning !" Spring!
Leaves still in bud, birds starting
into sing!
One spring I had a garden. Then
a day
Like this none would have coaxed
me here to play.
I would have been out tending my
wee flowers,
Watching the gradual green of
these first hours.
And children! Fleet, fleet years!
How could one miss
An hour of their unfolding baby
bliss?
Three heartsr' Madge bid. Three
hearts, peach-petal light,
I thought, the hearts of Anne and
Midge and Mitei

SCRIP BOOK

The yellow fog that rubs its back
upon the window-panes,
The yellow smoke that rubs its
muzzle on the window-panes,
Licked its tongue into the corners
of the evening,
fingered upon the pools that stand
in drains,
Let fall upon its back the SCOT that
falls from chimneys,
Slipped by the terrace, made a
sudden leap,
And seeing that it was a soft
October night,
Curled once about the house, and
fell asleep.
IT. S. Elliot.

Remembrance

l have no photograph of you.
And yet how clearly I can see
Your understanding eyes of blue
Smile down at me.
I have no record of your tone,
And yet how often you are near.
Your phrases answ ering my own,
Fall on my ear.
I have no promise that the years
Will not be many till we meet,
And yet I dream, through smile.

Parting

My life closed twice before its
close,
It yet remains to see
If immortality unven
A third event to me.
So huge, SO hopeless to conceive,
AS these that twice befell.
Parting is all we know of heaven,
And all we need Of hell.
Emily Dickinson.

A Taking Girl

She took my hand in sheltered
hooks,
She took my candy and my books.
She took that lustrous wrap of fur
She took those gloves I bought for
her.
She took my words of love and
care,
She took my flowers, rich and rare.
She took my time for quite a while.
Shes took my kisses maid SO shv
She took, I must confess, my eye,
She took whatever I would buy
And then she took another guy.

A Lack of Enterprise

CTILL this answer seems to me to confess certain
- lack of enterprise. 1t rests upon the assumption
that the structures reared through the frenzied and
misguided vapors of a boom period constitute the
only proper temples for the Muse. People talk of
"a Broadway playhouse as if that street we're in
way hallowed ground providing the only proper
soil in which the drama may flourish. To be sure
this Is territory rich in ntrates but there is the dis
tnct possibility that the land has been overworked
and for time might we'll lie fallow.
Indeed the darkened doors of many showshops
indicate that maybe Broadway isn't Broadway any
more. 1t is always sorry day when people begin
to think of plays wholly in terms of structural steel
brick and mortar and the interest the second
mortgage. Ancient tradition, supported by a few
modern instances, has shown that the theater lives
and breathes wherever a few actors gathered
together to speak lines in the presence of an audience
of one less
Bernhardt used tents in transforming the country
and other gallant troupers have done the They
should again. hate to actors sitting around the
Lambs or the Players standing in front of the
Palace bemoaning the lot of the artist who not
display his wares because he lacks any show window
once year the players put on a revival and the
Lambs in addition to public gambol keep the light
burning through private performances in their own
small theater. But this is less than enough. The
finest revue ever saw in my as years in and around
the theater put on for probable cost of few

of the university who hired him.
1t used TO be custom among the sorority sisters
at Swash to send their pretty little pledges cruising
down Cedar Fork in boat race rowed in old
fashioned Saturday night tin bathtubs. Cedar Fork
is captured and Inundated brook which serves as
drainage parallel to the Santa Fe tracks At
the street crossings Cedar Fork underground
through brick tunnels. There many ship
wrecks in the tunnels and he hulks of the old bath
tubs strew the banks of Cedar Fork to this day.
Cedar Fork is the Siwash waterfront 1t is their
Carnegie Lake, their Schuylkll, their Cayuga and
their SEVERN. They do not like you to call it Goose
Crick or the drainage sewer

Facing a Golden Opportunity

THERE was little trouble at Siwash one evening
- this fall when the students, few of whom could
remember way back to the last Swash victory, de-
cided to celebrate a victory anyway, and charge it
to the future. They went out and painted up the
the statue of Mother Bickerdyke, who a local
Florence Nightingale in the Civil War. The mayor
of GaleSburg was very about this and DR.. AL
bert Britt, the president of Siwash had to go down
to the city hall and fix things The students turned
to with turpentne and laboriousy implanted Mother
Bickerdyke and the next day Belot College gave
SiWash another licking
Next years Siwash team will face golden oppor-
tunity in the first game Win lose, they will dis
tingush themselves. If they win, they break the
losing streak If they lose they break the record for
consecutive defeats which Siwash shares with
Hobart College of Geneva, New York.
The alumni are calm about it all and many OF
them have secret hope that Swash will lose that
first one in 1885 After losing 81 games they not
content to be tied with Hobart. but want record.
After that Siwash may win, if God insists. 90
There is strong Scotch element in the Siwash
alumni. The reasons for this go way back nobody
knows where. 1t characteristic of this strain,
however, when the alumni suggested this fall that
henceforth, in the interests of economy, Swash get
along with one set of goal posts.
