What is tliere that a graduating class can say which hasn't been said a tiionsand times before in exactly the same way? Whereupon we will proceed to say it. We have enjoyed Milne High, and I think the four (or possibly five) years have seemed short to most of us. To me, 1 know, it seems about three months since 1 was pi-oudly occupying Freshman Study ITall together with the rest of the little girls with long hair (thei-e were two bobs in the class in those early days), and the little boys in knee-pants, who have developed into our present august assemblage. Now, in the last few weeks of school, we realize more than e\'er what Milne means to us, and we try to embrace every 0i)i)0i'tunity to carry away with us impressions of our high school life. 4 THE CRIMSON AND WTLLTE W e liavo truly been a hard-working class. Last year's Seniors left us with all the new enterprising work of the school just begun, and we have done much to establish their precedents—Student Council, Scholarship, Crimson and White Year Book, and others. We ai-e duly i-ewarded for our eit'orts when we reflect that we have streiigtliened these new institutions so that they will be comparatively easy for '24 to attend to, and that thus gradually they will become deep-rooted customs of Milne High. If this is so, we shall not have studied and worked in vain. D. A. G., '23 - 0 - CLASS SONG Dear old seat of learning, we will now sing thy praise Prom the depths of hearts fond and true. For love in our souls is awakened by memories. Which tiie prospects of parting renew. And you who are filling our places, we greet With brotherly feeling so broad; We salute you as followers along our path, Which we, with such great joy have trod. The friendships we've made in our class rooms are as dear As the casket of memory holds. Time never can bring much more wonderfully sweet. As the future her secrets unfolds; Good-bye! May thy future be resplendent and bright; For in our hearts you'll always be. May the following classes be equally fine As this one of 1923. CHORUS Milne, we shout to thee our praise, High above all, our voices raise And all through the ages may they ring! Alma Mater, tliy graces we sing!

THE CRIMSON AND W H I T E 11 CLASS HISTORY 9 1919! A mystic half-solemn thrill attends the words. Tlie world was at the trembling half-expectant dawn of a new era. America, like her fellow nations, seemed to be relaxing from the tension under which she had so long worked, fought, and sacriticed. Her glorious youth was flowing back into the arteries of human life, and the world seemed again a pleasing place and life an enviable prize. It was amid such a reawakening and rededication of human purpose that our class entered the portals of Milne High School. Like our predecessors, we were initiated into the arts of eraserthi'owing, lesson-dodging, and like indiscretions. But we were not so green as many other classes had been, for were not many of our members from the Junior High School? And had they not learned liow to subdue the high and m'ghty upperclassmen? Hut it was not long before the two sections—the outsiders and those from the Junior High School—became inseparately fused together into the class of 1923. After the mid-year exams, some of us became more closely connected with the upperclassmen because of our initiation into the various societies, but we were never allowed to forget that we were ''mere freshies." During our initial year we conferred that coveted honor of presidency upon Dorothea George, who really managed us (|uite well. At that time, we occupied tiie lai'go study hall supervised by Miss Gushing, and in June, 1920 we succeeded in moving to Room 300, which was under the I'ule of Miss Johnson, As sophomores, we inci'eased our dignity by buying class pins— for we, really needed some such emblem to prove we were at least of high school age. That same year, we took a leading i)art in 12 THE CRIMSON A N D WTLLTE oi'gaiiiziiig the Student Council and in establishing tlie Student Tax. We members of societies undertook aiu)tlier momentous task—that of instituting a Q. T. S. A. Scliolarship fund. This one hundred dollar scholarshi]) was to be awarded for the first time in 1923 to the student of the class of '22 who had excelled both in scholarship and school activities. After accomplishing so many strenuous tasks, we were very glad to have a vacation in order to recuperate before beginning to put over our big ideas. By the fall of 1921, we had removed to the other end of the liall and had to report our tardinesses to Miss Shaver. At that time we elected our members to the Student Council. To fulfill that lofty position we chose Dorothea George, Georgiana Maar, and Ellsworth Beeman. Now that we had become Juniors, we felt it our solemn duty to be carefree and to show the underclassmen how to act. Needless to say, we became frequent visitors to " S t u d y Hall in Room 300" which was carefully superintended by Professor Brown. During that yeai', we girls organized a basketball and baseball team. Although we were greatly humiliated by the defeat suffered at the hands of Rensselaer High, nevertheless, we ended the year l).y winning several games from the champion team of Albany High School. This was due to the faithful coaching of Miss Bennett and Helen Walsli and the cooperation of the team. We also took a large part in making the histoi'ical pageant given by the class of '22 a success. We kindly loaned our talented menibei's to be Indians, Americans, Dutch women, and even a Frenchman. In some miraculous way, we and the teachers survived the year and left for our vacation content with the knowledge that in the fall we should be high and mighty seniors. Yet, we did not quite see how we could acquire the necessary dignity in so short a time. In the fall of 1922, we returned to school somewhat reluctantly because we knew that there would be Avork ahead if we wished to be graduated in June. Upon our return, we again organized our class with Dewitt Zeh as president. Then with the idea of gi-aduation in the foreground, we ordered announcements and had our pliotographs taken. The Student Council with Dorothea George as president, Dorotliy Robinson, vice-president and Georgiana Maar secretary, undertook a student reception. Altliough not nuiny of tiu' students attended, tliose Avho did had a most enjoyable time. This year's Council also insti- THE CRIIVLSON A N D W H I T E ]3 tilted a new ])laii of giving a gift for tlio new high seliool, wliich we liope to have in the near future. For this purpose il lias eliosen a i-ichly colored print of " K i n g Lear and His Daughtei's. Now in these closing days when ci'owding ineiuoi'ies and stirring last events stride side by side, we ])on(le]' in momentary reveiy on the meaning of it all. In honest admission we realize that the course Ave have run has not widely differed from the myriad classes gone before or of those yet to come—the same studies, the same sports, the same societies, opportunity to claim the same medals for proficiency. Yet, not the same! For into them, have gone our personalities and found therein the expression of the swiftly passing joys of high school life. GEORGIANA M A A R 0 CLASS PROPHECY It was a pleasant spring day in 1940, and many people were out pi'omenading in Central Park. Among these were two women, who, when they saw each other, stopped and stared at each other with glances of dawning recognition. ' ' Why, it's Dottie George! I haven't seen you since 1923 !'' " H e l l o , Flossie Hudson! What are you doing h e r e ? " " W e l l , you know how interested 1 have always been in nuichinery and airplanes? I now have a trans-continental air line with planes that run three times a day from New York to San Fi-ancisco. And I hear that you are doing kindergarten w o r k . " " Y e s , I always have been interested in the training of the young. But have you heard what any of our old schoolmates are doing?" "Certainly, I have kept track of several of them. Y o u know our class has distingvdshed itself in the ai'tistc line. There ai-e Agnes Glenn, now a famous painter living in Paris; Lillian Bosovsky, whom of course you have heard as a violinist on the concert stage; Marian Nichols, the well-known pianist; and Helen Knowles, who has a tine position as teacher of elocution at a large college. And of course I need not recall to you the name of Nellie Futtei'ei', sinc(^ you se it featured evei-ywhere on moving-picture billboards." " Y e s , I saw hei- in her last pictui'e recently. And I actually met her on Broadway the other day. She was just conung from the beauty parlor of Monsieur Kirk, whom you may remember as 14 THE CRIMSON AND WTLLTE Ray. lie has inado a treiiioiidous success of his business, you know, since he guarantees to give a marcel wave just like his own. Ed Cramer is in the movies too, you know; his smile and his slick hair have (|uite sui)i)lanted nuMiu)i'ies of \'alentino." " A i u l did you know, Dot, that several members of our class have become literary lights? There is Alice Secor, the greatest living Shakespearian authority. Anne Frider has Avritten a history of the United States in fifteen volumes, which gained her a college professorship; and Mary Glynn is her devoted secretary and able assistant. You know they never could be separated." " R u t h Jansen is also an authoress, and a business wonuin as well. She has received great profits from a series of lessons she gives by corresi)ondence: 'How to Reduce by Rolling Your Own.' And Gladys Hutchison is having great success with a smart little shop she started in Chicago, Avhich advertises 'Gowns and Costumes of Startling Distinction.' Hut what has become of Elly Beeman?" " H a d n ' t you heard? He has gone into vaudeville as a musical novelty: 'One-Man Jazz Orchestra—He Plays It All Himself.' " H o w like dear Elly! Anothei- member of oui' class is 'in the profession'—Hugh McKeon. If you can believe it, he went on growing after he graduated, and now he is in Ringling's side-show as the tallest nuin in captivity." " 1 always had an idea he would do something like that. Arnold Laventall, too, has carried out the promise of his youth. He is a ])hilosophei' who spends a large ])art of his princely income in philanthropic ways, especially staking out pooi' working-g'.rls to meals. lUit what's the matter? Why do you look so s a d ? " " O h , when you speak of uplift woi'k like that it makes me think of poor Georgiana M a a r . " " W h a t hai)pened to her? I know she went at the head of a band of missionaries to the wilds of darkest Africa, but she hasn't written to me for years." " D i d n ' t you know? pooi' Gigi was eaten by lions several years ago, as she was going from one native village to anothei'!" " O h , I'm so sorry to hear of hei- sad fate ! Poor gii-l ! She was such a pious missionary—(|uite like the (|uiet, devout girl she alA\ays was at school! lint let's talk of something less sad,—of what has become of our other schoolmates. I supi)ose there is no room foi' in(|uiry as to what Dix Colbert is d o i n g ? " " N o , indeed. You could guess it the first tinu% since you listened in English classes for four years to his themes about boxing. THE CRIMISON AND W H I T E 15 He is famous now, you know; I believe lie has a contract to meet the World's Champion Flyweight (or j)ei'haps it's Pa])erweiglit), at some time in the near future. And speal^ing of sports, did you Iciiow that Anne Hess luis l)een for several years coach of basketball and football at Yale? Yes, they hired her because she so far surpassed any woman coach they had ever had; and she is teachiug the men such rough tactics that most other colleges are now afraid to play them. But, tell me, what is Lizzie Friend d o i n g ? " " W h y , Liz had an artistie impulse and started a school of aesthetic dancing, in which she trains girls for the Russian liallet. I understand that she teaches voice culture on the side." " I never would have thought it of Liz! Two other prominent members of our class are now much before the public eye. You know what brilliant Dorothy Robinson is doing as President of the Woman's International Suffrage Alliance. She is a most efficient executive. And in every pajoer on the society page one may see photographs and columns without number of Marian Bardene, her three ex-husbands, and her million-dollar wardrobe. She is an active leader at Newport this season." " D o you know. Dot, we have forgotten to mention the most illustrious member of our class—DeWitt Z e h . " " W h y , he has risen so high that we should all be proud to have gone to school with him. Just think—President of the United States! But I think it queer that he refused to have any Cabinet, but insists upon doing the work of all the Departments himself!" " W e l l , you know, he always was a genius for woi'k—so busy at school all the while. " S o this is the way the class of "23 turned out! I think we ought to be proud of all our prominent colleagues—don't y o u ? " FLORENCE M. HUDSON, '23 DOROTEHA A. GEORGE, '23 0 CLASS WILL To all persons to whom these presents shall come, Greetings. We, the Class of 1923, of the Milne High School of Albany County, Albany, New York, being of sound miiul and body, even after the terrors of Regents, and realizing the advanced age of our High School life as to suggest graduation, do nuxke this our last will and testament. In the name of Professor Sayles, the Faculty 16 THE CKIMAOIN AND W H I T E and {)11 the Practice Tcacliers, we, llie class of '23, being i'ully aware oF the uncertainty oi' life and of tiie certainty of death, do ordain and (k'chire this our hist reinend)i'ance to our beloved ahna mater, Milne High School. We hereby be(tueath to the Junior Class, all right, title, and interest of the Senior Study hall, including the bi'oken window, the bi'oken therniometei', the broken picture frame, the Bell-less telephone, and all portions of stray lunches that may be found in the desks. However, in making this concession, we request that during the meetings of the Adelphoi Literary Society, John Rude shall cease literally to thrust his nose thru the panes of glass. Furthermore, we give and devise to the Junior Class the I'ight to walk thru the halls with heads raised high, chests out, and the exclusive right to ignore all sophomores and freshmen. W e be(pieath them the extrenu' and delightful privilege of composing a senior essay, and, we as a class, wish to make a donation annually of one quill from a Perforated Pomei'aniaii Porcupine and an old waste basket, to the author of the best essay. The Junior Class also is given clear title and right to write a senior debate; and to tiie winning team of the said senior debate, we, the class of 1923, will award annually one diamond-studded tiea-whip. To the school in general, we leave one principal (besides the principle derived from the student tax), six critics, and some forty odd teachers (some of whom are very odd indeed). Furthermore, to each and every member of the school is hereby given a membership in the largest scholarship society of the school, namely the organization which is conducted by our esteemed and beloved faculty from 12:35 to 1:30 P. M. daily. To the student ac(piiring a perfect attendance record at the meeting of this aforenunitioned organization, we will award an old whiskei*. We be(iueath to the faculty of the school, one dozen silverplated grind-stones, that they may use these in sharpening tiu^ wits of the student body. To the Student Ccinicil, we be()ueath one thii'd of the total sum of the student tax, said tax to be placed upon the chairs of the members of the coumul so that they may arise to the occasions which confront them. To the bashful, gentle, graceful, and ever interesting girls of our alnui nuiter, we leave one lai'ge-sized looking glass, that each and every gii'l may be able to see a-head in the world. We also give to the girls the divine right of hanging a mail box in Study hall, so THE CRIMSON AND W H I T E i I ' I fk 17 tliat when they get hard up for men to take to dances (ai'ter the graduation of the boys of 1923) they will be able to get their partners at the male box. We bequeath to the respective classes of our alma mater, one pair of stilts and one elevator, so that they may be successful in reaching the heights attained by the class of 1923. To the unnecessary, sweet, and innocent freshmen we leave 47 cases of Mellin's food, so that every day in every way they may become stronger and stronger. Also to our youngest class we bequeath 4 dozen bottles of LePage's glue, so that they will stick around Milne f o r four years. Besides the bequests already mentioned, we hereby render the following individual gifts: To Lawrence Ulrich, we give absolute jurisdiction of the Theta Nu Literary Society and direct that in the future the members shall be chosen as exclusively as in the past. To William Drislane McDonough, we give all right, title, and interest to use the Senior Study Hall walls as a future parking space for his gum. However, before granting the aforementioned William Drislane this exclusive privilege, we require that he first transfer his present supply from the walls of the Sophomore Study Hall to the walls of the Senior Study Hall, and in the future, we direct that the aforementioned William Drislane, shall refrain from chewing all gum manufactured by Wrigley, Beechnut, Chicklet, etc., but shall henceforth and forever after confine himself to the exclusive use of Beeman's. To Everett Long, we leave " E d d i e " Cramer's courage in being the bachelor of the Virgil class. W e make this bequest despite the fact that our own opinion is that " E d d i e " was old enough to know better. To Ellen Doody, we leave Gladys Hutchison's solution of the problem, " H o w to Make a Brunette a B l o n d . " To Lois Thornton McNeillie, we leave " D o t " George's Virgil " t r o t " so that Lois may be able to set the pace for next year's Virgil class. This bequest is not left with any insinuation that it is given where it is most needed. To Helen Hamburger,we give 10 i)ounds of Ruth Jansen's superfluous avordupois. To Mary Craig, we be(iueath a copy of Irvin S. Cobb's edition cf, " H o w to Grow T h i n . " To " B o b b y " Levi, we wish to bequeath " L i z " Friend's quiet 18 THE CRIMSON AND WTLLTE inaiiner of iissertioii and lier everlasting enthiisiasiii in support of gii'ls' athletics. To Harold lleininiller, sometimes referred to as " S i s t e r , " Ave give all riglit, title, and interest as captain and manager of next year's knitting team. To Matthew Gipp, we bequeath six inches of Hugh McKeon's seventy-six inches in height. To Sterling Ferguson, we give all title and contracts for the use of the roofs adjacent to the Senior and Junior Study Halls. To Frances Storrs, we leave the combined gracefulness of our kewpies, Ruth Jansen and " L i z " Friend. To Francis Stevens, we bequeath Dix Colbert's Valentino sideboards. To Noble Williams, we leave DeWitt Zeh's winning ways in vamping the State College girls.

THE CLASS OF 1923 THE CRIMISON AND W H I T E '23's F A R E W E L L Our last farewells have now been made to you, Oh, Milne. The time is come foi- ns to leave Your learned halls. And so we wander through Your silent, empty rooms that seem to grieve For us who now are forced to say goodbye. And strange, that every lifeless object dumb. The desks, the chairs, the pictures seem to cry, "Farewell! Ye shall return in years to come ! " If prophet hand could read the veil of life And show us what our mystic futures hold,— Sorrow, joy, love, happiness, and daring strife To gain at rainbow's end the glittering gold, I wonder, then, if we could see, some night When all the stars have left a lightless sky. Upon the steps of Milne a strange, weird siglit, And glimmering, ^ ^ ghostly ^figures ^ passing ^ ^by. The wdiite moonlight its paisley pattern traces On plastered walls, smooth floors, ascending stair. And lights, with fairy glow, familiar places, Next to reveal a ghostly company there. The brand of Time is seen on every brow, But Youth, glad Youth, is in the words they speak, And Youth is theirs once more tonight, as now The wistful shrines of long ago they seek. , ; 1 ^ I ^f Who knows but thus the Class of Twenty-three May visit Milne again, a ghostly band, Arrived from foreign climes across the Sea And coming back to greet a native land. But friendly phantoms we shall be indeed: (Perhaps a tear or two will even flow), So to our nightly wanderings pay no heed, And swift away our ghostly throng will go. MARIAN E. BARDENE, '23 19 20 THE CRIMSON AND W H I T E 'J SCHOOL NOTES We are closing another year. May we look back to see the progress we have made. Our first social event was the Student Reception. Although we do not like to be t r i t e — " A good time was had by all," Shortly after vacation our long-hoped for exams took place. Many of us started the new term with a clean conscience and fi good resolution to study. In February the long expected debate took place. The judges had a hard time to give a decision. A Q. T. S. A. scholarship dance was held in February. Some interest and enthusiasm was shown, but not enough to raise our full ([uota. March 25 was full of excitement, for on that day the Dramatic Club presented " T h e Neighbors," by Zona Gale. Easter vacation started on this day. We returned on the 2nd of April. Girls' Day was held on May 17. A poem " T h e Companion of V. M i l e " by Alfred Noyes was dramatized by the members of Sigma and Quin. After a week of Regents we shall gain some well earned relaxation on Class Night, the School Picnic, and Commencement. D. H. R., '23 0 STUDENT COUNCIL NOTES This is the second year tliat Milne has had a Student Council, and it has been a most successful one. W e began the year with a Student Reception in the gymnasium. There were a great many students present, and every one had a most enjoyable time. This year the Student Council has presented the school with a print, " K i n g Lear and His Daughters." Milne hopes to have a >building of its own in the near future, aiul if our dream is ever realized, there will be a great need for pictures. The Student Council is tlius setting a ])recedent which, it is hoped, will be followed in the futui'e. G. M., '23 THE CRIMSON A N D W H I T E 21 ALUMNAE NOTES On Moving-iip Day in N. Y. S. C.

" Tliat is considered the correct thing to say, isn't it? Girls' Day was very successful, as usual. After our last year's success at a dramatic attempt, we wanted to do likewise this year; but the point was to gain variety by giving something different from the last Girls' Day play. Quin thought so, too. With Miss Rice's assistance, we saw the possibilities of a May Day poem of Alfred Noyes', " T h e Comjjanion of a M i l e . " It called 22 T H E CRIMSON AND WTLLTE for four main cliaracters and any niuuber of " M a y Day Rovelei's," so we were able to divide tlie honors e(iiially between Quin and Sigma. We are all very proud of the fact tliat we dramatized it, inserted action, music, and two charming morrice dances, wliich Miss Isabelle Johnson tauglit us, made tlie old English costumes ourselves, and put the play over with much success—and all in a week and a half. Other features of the Girls' Day program were the Quin and Sigma Joke Papers, a recitation and some music. As this goes to print, the Sigma girls are planning, as their annual spree, an afternoon at the Colonic Country Club, with tennis, swimming and tea. W e carried out that same i)rogram last year with great enjoyment to everyone. Question is, with such a pleasant car strike going on, how are we going to get there? That (luestion will have been solved by the time you peruse this, o gentle readei', but at present, it is a real problem to us. We think of chai'tering a bus and traveling in style. W o n ' t we be grand? D. A. G., '23 • 0 QUIN NOTES On May 26, the seven-fifteen D. and II. ti'ain had twenty-one youthful occupants, all wearing middies and knickers and duly chaperoned by Miss Rice, on their way to the Indian Ladder. The conductor graciously held up the train while we waitetl for Vera Button and Beth Root to finish star-gazing and catch a trolley. They were so engrossed tliat they let three cars go by and ari'ived at the station five minutes late. After walking over the trail, and visiting the crevice and the cavern, w^e collected our scattered crowd and returned to the Meadowdale station. It was i-ather hard to come back to civilization, but we were glad to arrive home in time to dine in luxury with our respective families. Tliursday, May 17, Quin lent her talented members, sucli as Vera iiutton and Florence Hudson, to make the Gii'ls' Day exercises a great success. I THE CRIMSOIN AND W H I T E 23 Wo are very proud once more to have the valetlietoriaii a lueiul^er of Quill. This year Marian Uardene has been awarded this higli honor. Marian has always been active in all the affairs of the society. n. B., '25 ADELPHOI Adelphoi has come to life. After a period of weeks during which the society has been for the most part asleej), we iiave awakened and are finishing the year strong. Several new members have been taken in among whom are Rude, O'Connor, Dyer, Wansboro, Long and Stevens. The initiations were a bit rougli as is evidenced by the distorted features of the new members afterward. John Rude's nose is hardei- tiian glass because the window pane broke and his nose did not. The officers for next year are: President Clayton Rosboro Vice President Werner Liebicii Secretary Evei-ett Long Treasurer Noble Williams J Cliaplain Francis Stevens I Sergeant-at-Arms I Some new enthusiasm has been aroused by the members, and wo l)lan to finish tiie year with as mucii spirit as we began. The climax of the year will be tiie annual Adelphoi banquet. John Conistock D. Z., '23 0 All the world's a stage, Ts a thought tiiat's universal; i)Ut tiie women all believe T l i e s h o w ' s a dress rehearsal. 24 THE CRIMSON AND WTLLTE Milne's baseball squad was on the diamond early in the season. Among the boys were several veterans, including McKeon, IJlrich, Kirk, Williams, and Davenport. The new candidates were Ferguson, Gipp, Goldring, Van Alstyne, Liebich, O'Connor and Vanderhorst. The first two games were disastrous to the home team. But then, in the game with Albany Academy, we won by a score of 13-12. Deacon we defeated also, 7-6. Most of the positions have been played fairly well. McKeon proved himself to be a star first-sack man; with his exceptional reach he brought down many wide throws. Kirk, who is considered, one of the best short-stops in the High School League of this section, came into the box to rescue our team, which was without a regular pitcher, Ulrich, as a backstop, has improved considerably since last season—not a ball gets past him; and, so far, he has stolen every base within reach without being caught. The batting average of these three men and of Williams is over the .600 mark. Home runs have been chalked up for Williams and McKeon. Liebich and Gipp have featured in the "outer garden." The line-up is as follows: Pitcher, Beeman, Kirk. Catcher, IJlrich 1st Base, McKeon 2nd Base, Williams 3rd Base, Van Alstyne Shortstop, Goldring Right field, Gii)p, Ferguson Center field, O'Connor, Vanderhorst Ijeft field, Liebich L. U., '24 T H E CKIMSOXN A N D W H I T E 25 GIRLS' A T H L E T I C S Our basket ball team, like every ot her outdoor sport, sufTerod due to the lateness aiitl wetness oF tlie season. This also jirevented track pi'actice and consc(|nently a traek meet. True it is that our year in the athletic field has not been altogether successful from the outsiders point of view. But no one will deny that we have the ' ' n e v e r - s a y - d i e " spirit. Even when our girls had nothing to look forward to they turned out regulai-ly to basketball pi'actice, hoi)ing against hope that, fi-oni, somewhere in the distance, a game would appear. A n d one did ! Thanks to Miss Johnston we had tw^o games with the S. T. C. Fi'osh. W e admit that wo were defeated both times, but at least we had an opportunity to play. Let us hope that next year's teams wall be able to obtain games, and that they may have all the luck which we feel sure we would have had this year, had we had our chance.

Don't you think a more attractive cover would have greatly enhanced the appearance of your April edition? Picayune, Batavia, N. Y . Y o u r athletics and advertisements are a credit to you, but y o u r department called " T h e E m p t y J u g " is not lengthy. Student's Pen, Pittsfield, Mass. The literary department of your May issue is interesting on the whole while your article entitled ' ' What are y o u Reading ? ' ' seemed particularly timely to us. The cover design of this number is very clever. ORACLE, Gloversville, N. Y . The athletics in the March issue are fine, but more g o o d jokes would be a boon to your paper. Blue Owl, Attleboro, Mass. " T h e Sacrifice" and " H i s P u n i s h m e n t " in your April issue are well written and interesting. W e are glad to find a school where school notes are written in a rather unusual manner. Red and Black, Locust Valley, L. 1. Y o u r alumni notes are lengthy, but wliy not add more original jokes?

Shucis, S c h e n e c t a d y , N. Y . The Crimson and W h i t e is a l w a y s glad to welcome a new exchange. If all y o u r issues are like this one, w e feel that we liave been missing something worthwhile. Irvonian, Irving School, Tai-rytown, N. Y . W e liked y o u r Special Nund^er immensely. The Irvonian is indeed fortunate in having such a department as " W h a t Men W i l l W e a r . " More stories would improve y o u r literary department.
