With ap- propriate words, Miss Gentry presented to Miss Dunbar the gavel, symbol of her official position, re- commending to the new President a willing student body which is in hearty and loyal cooperation with every effort of the student council.

Afterglow

At the close of a perfect clay, amid the glimmering glow of twi- light, I stand enthralled at the sum- mit of a hill and gaze westward' over the vast open spaces around me.

Behind me the tall stately pines and sweet-scented cedars sigh gent- ly and reluctantly in yielding to the tender embraces of the teasing breezes. Above, a final bewildered call thrills from the throat of the mate of a prodigal feathered crea- ture. Soothing sounds from the warMing of a hidden brook, the rustling of dry brown leaves, the soft color, quietness, peace.

The last visible rim of the weary sun lingers a moment on the horizon then sinks into the welcoming arms of the cozy clouds. A rosy glow- suffices all. Silence reigns for a moment as though all nature were joining hands in whispering "well done." Then it is that I know what I would have my life be—to live so that I might leave such an afterglow.

Helen Robertson, '32.

oOo MAPLE TREE

Maple tree, Your heart's own blood Has spilled upon the grass Each thinly* spattered drop Reflects the sunbeams' shifting dance Your youthful summer days are

gone, And Autumn holds you fast. O tree! sleep not the sleep That makes strong souls forget— Life comes again in Spring.

—Dorothy Macon Morton.

The results of a questionaire sub- mitted to girls at Stephens College show that dates were the least popular pastimes. Dancing led the list of hobbies.

Since the elections were held f have had the delightful privilege of holding interviews with the out- going and in-coming officers. I found these girls in gay spirits— the old officers and the new ones.

When I stopped Miss Hixie Gen- try in the hall and asked her for a word or two she said "It will take three years to recuperate from the nerve strain that I went through with at each knock on my door— wondering what excuse to give for not allowing this one special per- mission. I feel that in my future years, Pll have no trouble in receiving a job. I can always secure a position as messenger boy forthe Postal Telegraph or Western Union. My hat is off to those girls who have puller anything over the Student Council—'no hard feelings.' Here's to the Student Government in the future; may it neither be 'stud' or 'dented.' And that was all Miss Gentry said. She seemed to be a bit sad over something that day.

From there, I held an interview with the new student government president — Miss Thelma Dunbar. Miss Dunbar started off telling me the things she means to do. They're so awfully simple, that I know it will be easy to accomplish these tasks. She said, "I mean to do all in my power next year, to see that the girls get some new privileges. Chiefly: to ride at least with day students), to stay out until ten o'clock, to let seniors have alumnae privileges last semester and to have everybody get to breakfast on time unless they are being served ni bed. I am going to try to have a pulley installed from the bottom of the hill to third floor Hawks, and a radio in all rooms. I wish to take this opportunity to thank my cam- paign managei'S and my room- mate for their hearty cooperation in my election. I extend sympathy to my room mate in her loss of said position."

Next I called on Miss Helen Rob- ertson and Miss Mattilee Dunn to ask them what they had to say at Editor-in-Chief, and Business Man- ager of the Quadrangle. They spoke in turn and the following is from them: "We found out, after months of trying to secure money for the Quadrangle that the best plan for this would be to place a mint in one corner of the L. C. swimming pool. During the days of labor when various men came to visit the new staff, we suggest that the editor-in-chief and business manager wear cool beach pajamas. We would like very much to see White's Studio on the back campus. W e recommend the installation of hide- ous looking men from the Wrigley Engraving Company, t o insure against competiton between th e new editor and business manager for said man's heart. IWe suggest that every person in school appear in the beauty section in order to avoid rivalry. We advise that you keep the copy under lock and key to avoid inquisitive eyes of any in- vading typists. We suggest that the extra advertising space b e bought by the college. Now, seri- ously speaking, the work on the annual for the year '31 and '32 has been quite enjoyable. The annuals have at last arrived and we're looking forward to distributing them this week. We hope you'll like them."

Facing Forward Parnassus

The Judas Tree

It was a happy, flowering tree; It's blooms with scarlet fire were

cweet, And graciously its branches made A pool of shadow round its feet; Until, that day, one came In agony of shame.

. . . In a sudden flood It's blossoms broke and fell, And lay like scattered blood!

Now since that time all men In honor pass it by; The sunlight and the rain In pity shun it not, But in the wind its dark leaves sigh, "Iscariot! . . . Iscariot! ..."

Storm-Strengthened There is a twisted, storm-tried oak Against my sunset sky. Too big for tears it is, too sternly

Dtrong. The tempest torturer can wring

from it No cry of hate—no near—though

kingly head Be bowed, and fair young branches

maimed forever. Wise as philosophy, it feeds upon

misfortune— Gains strength by striving; and in

its strife Gives no complaint more than a

sigh. A blackened monument it is, to

ohow All the grace and glory—all the

deep-hid strength Held in the hearts of twisted,

homely things. —Nellie Sue Bailey.

MY PINE.

A tall pine towers beside my mountain home,

All scarred and wind-whipped by the rending gales

That swept the heights; yet, firm- set in the loam,

In lifts defiant boughs. It never fails

To conquer, stoic-like transcending strife.

This tree has seen high-hearted noy my blind

Desires, my poignany grief, my whole life's scroll.

To some it seems austere, sloof, unkind,

Too stern. But I know its inmost soul!

To me, it is a symbol of my life. —Katherine Faver Glass

To A Mimosa Tree

Bare Trees

Dark silhouettes against the sunset's glow,

Artistic winter used her skillful arts

To sketch your leafless boughs! The sun sinks low

And adds her glory as the day departs.

NTo red and gold adorn you, bare old trees,

Where clung vines of whitening clematic

And nests of robins swaying in the breeze.

But now you compensate for charms we miss!

For who would call you gaunt, un- lovely trees

When mistletoe's seen pearls among you gleam?

The outline only of yourselves one r.ees;

Your loveliness within is still a dream!

Jewel Faver Glass.

Those who would have "A" students excused from taking final ex- aminations will consider the state- ment of a profesor at Marshall Col- lege quite a blow. He said that those making "A" on the midsemes- ter report should be given a harder Inal examination.

Oh, habitation bright For creatures born of Fancy's very

self— I Mimosa tree, warm haunt of hum-

ming bird, Of butterfly, and sturdy bumble bee I clasp your trunk and stand

enchanted here, Upgazing into your green fairyland. Oh, sweet humming-bird, a moment

stay! You are a sprightly princeling in

disguise; For royal broideries Are blazoned on the glossy, feath-

ered breast; And the long slender shining little

bill That daitily sips nector and is gone, Is but the shrunken sceptre of old

days, And here the ladies are that cast

the spell And lured you to their many-blos-

somed bower. This butterfly is light Titania; And lo, fond Oberon, yon lusty elf That airily pursues on jealous wing.

Mimosa tree, now must break the spell?

Reluctantly I leave your peopled shade,

And backward glance once more; then stand amazed.

Mimosa tree, your blossoms are ablaze;

All glowing now you stand, like burning bush

Beheld by Moses when his Gob un- veiled.

Oh, seen from near, you are the quaint abode

Where fairies play, and gentle creatures all;

But seen from far, your beauty flames in full,

And shows the very dwelling place of Goh.

A professor of psychology at Col- gate University recently required his students to sleep in class so that 'ne could determine the most effec- tive pitch for an alarm clock.

John Winter, traveling secretary of the South Atlantic Region of the Student Volunteer Movement, visit ad LaGrange College on March 22.

In the afternoon he gave a very informal talk in the "Y" room. Ev- eryone was invited to hear him, but especially those who were vitally in- terested in the Student Volunteer Movement and the Y. W. C. A.

At prayers he made an interesting talk to the student body. He gave much food for thought on the sub- ject of "Walls." "Something there is that doesn't

love a wall, That sends the frozen ground swell

under it And spills in the upper boulders in

the sun And makes gaps even two can pasf abreast."

With these lines from the con- temporary poet, Robert Frost, he began his inspiring mesage. He clearly brought out that four bar- riers must be broken before neigh- borly relationships can exist. These four walls are: nationalism, section- alism, racialism, and ignorance.

In his concluding words he urged us as college students to endeavor to break down the venerable walls that are foes to peace and brother- hood.

"SO THIS IS LOVE"

Professors at the University of Tennessee have become so outraged by the terrible spelling of students on xamination papers that they have instituted a class to correct the matter. The teacher of the class was chosen by lot.

CHARACTERS Dot — A young girl about 19.

Mabel—her friend (same age) Gary—A boy about 21 years old. (The scene is a small uncomfort-

able sitting room. The furniture is stiff and dark except for a large overstuffed couch in the center of the room, which is brightened by two or three pillows. large gilt- edged mirror is hung on one side of the room over a small table. On the other side of the room is hung an ornately large crayon portraitof of a bearded old man.

An impromptu dressing table seems to have been made of the mirror and table as a young, girl stands gazing at herself in the mirror and slowly combing her hair, another girl is draped on the couch and is lackadaisically turning the pages of a movie-magazine as she centers her attention on chewing her gum).

Mabel (the girl on the couch). "I'm afraid you've gone a lttle off your nut about ths Gary, Dot. Did he say he wanted to tell you something or ask you something?" Dot (laughing) : Oh, I guess maybe you are a little jealous and I can't blame you. I don't remember his exact words, but I think it was ask; anyway he said it was important. And you are now talking to the future Mrs. Gary Blunt, of Ports- mouth, Virginia! (with a little bow she turns back to the mirror and starts rouging her cheeks). Mable (with a sigh): Well, maybe you are right and he is going to pop the question tonight, but someway it just sounds to wonderful to be true. Here he comes to school with a car of his own, lots of money and lots of puffy old ritzy relatives and goes off his noodle about you and wants to marry you, of all things!" Dot: "Wonderful things like that do happen sometimes. Besides, what is wrong with me? Why shouldn't he mary me? Mabel, I'm—" Mabel (who also come over to the mirror, turns, and gives Dot a little hug) : Nothing is wrong with you,

INTERVIEWS HELD WITH NEW AND OLD OFFICERS

Junior Class Dots

The Junior Class has recently elected the followng offcers: Presdent—Mary Johnson. V.-Presdent—Thelma Dunbar. Sec.-Treas.—Mabel Caudle. (Mss Dora Shepherd, sponsor).

Besdes electng new officers we have received our pep, and we are again ready to do "big things." One thing we have enjoyed doing this month, besides studying, was pre- senting the "Dixie Minstrel" in the college auditorium. We found out that other than teaching typing and so forth, and being secretary Miss Shepherd is a good stage director. Later, we gave this minstrel at Center high school, near LaGrange. The freshmen proved how good they are by helping us do this, and there were other outsiders too. We appreciated their help, and are going to show we appreciated it in another way before long, just wait and see.

At the W. W. and Y. W. C. A. conference at Camp Wilkin in Ath- ens, April 15th-18th, two of the L. C. representatives were juniors, Winifred Adams was the former president of the junior class. The reports brought back by the representatives were both interesting and helpful.

Dotsy, and I just meant if he i3 such a—oh, nothing though. I ;hould say nothing is wrong with you, and you do look swanky in that outfit. You better put up this junk before he gets here, though. (They both begin shoving cosmetics into the table drawer). Dot: "He has never exactly said anything about marrying me, AMD every time we want to go some place and haven't time he says, "Oh, why should we worry, Dot? We've all our life left to go there in; and what else could he mean? He cer- tainly isn't going to stay in college all his life, Mabel. Toodle-ooh— and phone me how it come out, will ya'? ! Dot: "Sure, I'll phone and if you dare breathe it to a soul I'll—" Mabel: "Don't be a sil*—who would I tell—the ice man? By."

(Exit Mable) (Dot left alone, returns to the mirror and runs her lipstick over her lips again, as she hums a few bars of a popular song. (There is a knock at the door, and before she has time to answer it the door is opened and a tall, rather good-looking, and extremely well- dressed young man enters. Dot runs over and kisses him impetu- ously). Dot (a little nervously) : "It is raining, isnt it? Oh, well, we need- n't worry. I've got you and you've got me, and so forth. Sit down, Gary." ,Gary slowly takes off his coat and glances at Dot with a worried look as he sits down). Gary: "Feels good to sit down. I'm tired. Dot: "What's the matter darlin'? You look worried. Gary: "I would be worried if I was the worrying kind, but I'm not that kind—I've been kicked out of school again." Dot: "Oh, I see, and you don't know what your father will say?" Gary: "I know all right. He has said he was through, and if I got kicked out of just one more school I could know that was the end, and I'd have to settle down to work and marry." Dot (brightens up) : "Well, I don't see anything so dreadful about that. It could be lots worse. I think— Gary (surprised) : "Well, you cer- tainly being a peach about it. Don't you love me, Dot? I was afraid it was going to be kind of hard on

(Continued from 2nd page) Next Miss Rebecca Hajt and Miss

Margaret Hayes, the new Editor and Business Manager of the Annual, gave me a few minutes. Miss Hart said, "From lack of funds, I fear that we shall hae to reduce the size of the annual. The faculty will be forbidden to have pictures, too, and the Club Sponsors will be required to pay for the club pages, in order to prevent the hold-up of the annual. Each class page will be only §20.00 next year. In order to avoid embarrassment on the part of students, the annuals will be given away on arrival. Girls will be pro- perly chaperoned to have pictures mades. Finger prints will be taken of all students who sign for an annual. We believe this will elimin- ate the backing out of buying them in the Spring. The editor reserves a privilege of monopoly of all men from Wrigley—'at that moment we heard a hair-pulling between Mar- garet and Rebecca.

I chased down Miss Virginia Mos- eley, who has served as president of the Athletic Association for two years, and asked her to say something of her work. She stood gazing out my window while she talked to me. "As I look on the back campus at the new gym," she said, "I do not attribute it to the success of my work, but to the cooperation of the athletic girl on the hill. The ice cream festivals have been most enjoyable. In a way, I feel responsible for so many girls having to be pulled out of the pool, this year, and yet I was indeed proud of the good work of our life saver. I was so sorry everybody couldn't win in the swimming meet thia year—I am glad to note that everybody's health has been very good, and I hope that next year, all your postures will be as good as that of Alline White. I hope you'll wear oxfords next year. I know it has <been hard on those in training

you." (Dot laughs; then suddenly her face changes) : "What do you mean hard on me?" Gary: We've had some mighty good times together and I thought you'd miss me—at first, anyway.' Dot: I don't understand—miss you? Gary (flustered): "Yes, you see, Father, the governor, expects me to settle down there and -er-er-marry a girl he has picked out, daughter of a friend of his, you know. Sticky kind of a girl." Dot (bewildered) :And, you are going to do it? Oh, Gary, I thought you—I—we-oh,ph!"

Gary: Nuw, Dot, don't cry, please. Let's not have a scene; it only makes it harder for us both. There now, be a good sport. It isn't that I don't love you. You understand, don't you? And I—I believe that is Harry blowing for me. I'll have to go. Here, kiss me good-bye." Dot (slowly) : "Yes, I understand. When do you leave?" Gary: "I'll have to catch the 9:40 train that leaves in forty minutes. | Don't worry, Dot; I'll probably be able to persuade the governor to let me off. I'll come back soon, maybe by summer. (He kisses her hurridly and seizing his hat and coat rushes from the room. Dot sprang up when he left, stands in the center of the room with her hands on her throat, looking desperately around). Dot (very slowly) : "He-isn'tcoming back!" (Then sobbing she throws herself on the couch).

to have to eat at special tables, but they did good work. I have cut gym to give this time to such an important interview—now I must oe 'on my way.' "

I found Miss Sara Lee Payne, the i new President of the Athletic Asso- ciation, in the library (as usual). ; She was hunting a Shakespeare ! book, but concentrated to pause ', just long to say this to me. "My main ambition, as I took this new J office, is to keep up the good olc', ' Field Day, but I'm afraid I shall j hae trouble because as yet, I have j only secured one-half day for this occasion. After two weeks time, Carl has filled our swimming pool. I am glad for you girls to enjoy it these hot days, but please be care- ful about diving and swimming under water. I'm doing my best to bring about a great interest in ath- letics for next year—so hard that I played tennis all afternoon. Let's put teams across in a 'big way next

year." Miss Catherine Rogers, former

president of the Y. M. C. A. came next. "I suggest," said Miss Rogers

that a campus car and filling sta- tion be placed at the end of the hill | for "Y" delegations to various con- j ferences. I thank the association ;

for the choir that was installed during the year which has been a great comfort to the choir. We feel sat- isfied with the year's work because of the bulletin board pad we leave the "Y". But settling to more sol- emn strains may I say that the key- note for any success of the "Y" is due to the cooperation of the cabinet. Here's a toast to the new cabnet!"

Miss Winifred Adams, the new "Y" president was very busy, and I had only a few minutes with her. Her remarks were: "The first thing that comes in my mind is that I'm scared to death, but with the new cabinet I have, I have no reason to be afraid, because they'll do the work with me. I promise my cabinet the evry best work I can do."

Miss Dot Morton, my fellow suf- ferer, as the editor-in-chief of the Scroll has said, "I appreciate very much the honor given me by the Quill Driver's Club and the best wishes of the club and the editor-in- chief. I hope we might be able to do a little of the good work that this year's staff has done and especially that of the editor-in-chief. We'll leave an extra prize in next September's edition for compliments from the class of '32, so please fill out the blanks that you will receive the last of August and return for this edition. To all of you who en-

ter the business world, we extend an invitation to send us a $5.00 ad each month. We expect subscrip- tions from all seniors."

Gee! After all these good interviews all the words in the English language have been used and especially those of my conversational vocabulary. It's so limited, anyway. But I do want to say at this time, that my work on the Scroll this year has been most pleasant. My staff has worked faithfully every single month and without them I don't know what I would have done. I extend to 'Dot' my heartiest con- gratulations and sincere wishes for a successful year. I hope she can visit West Point every month and go over her paper. I hope that you will love this little paper just like I love it, 'Dot,' but that you'll put sentiments into more work than I have. Get these seniors to promise a subscription before they leave. Here's mine now."

STUDENT GOV'T OFFICERS ARE INAUGURATED

(Continued from page 1) ral speech of appeal to the student body for their continued cooperation, emphasizing the significance of the inter-rependence of the Stu- c'.ent Council and the Student Body.

The inauguration of the new Council closed a very successful year for the Student Government Association under the competent leadership of Miss Gentry. A year of similar but even greater accom- plishments is expected under the equally capable guidance of Miss Dunbar. 0O0

Y. M. C. A. HAS IMPRESSIVE SERVICE

(Continued from page 1) junior class. In every way the students feel that they have made a wise selection and after Miss Adams finished speaking, after being installed, every girl felt reconsecrated to the Y. W. C. A. work. Miss Adams told a beautiful Indian Legend, pointing out that it was allegorical representation of the "Y", and con-' eluded with the prayer of the Indian brace to the spirit of the mountain.

To aid her in carrying on the work, Miss Adams is supported by an excellent group of Cabinet members. The cabinet in full are these, President, Winifred Adams; vice- president, Frances Eberhart: secretary, Gertrude Linn; treasurer, Sara Lee Payne; honorary member, Thelma Dunbar. Committee chair- men; devotional, Mary Jonnson; social service; Sara Whitaker; World Fellowship, Margaret Hayes; recrea- tional, Ruth Campbell; Music, Annie Rosa Bond; publicity, Louise Dobbs; tea room, Alice Lovern, reporter, Monta L. Hall. oOo

LOCAL AND COLLEGE POETS WIN RECOGNITION

(Continued from page 1) line Playmakers, is one of the best known of the local group.

Miss Sails, head of the English Department at the college, recently published "Pensive Citadels," a book of poetry which she dedicated to LaGrange College on the occasion of its centennial, and which has received favorable recognition in the South and in Miss Sails' former home in the East.

Mrs. Glass, an alumnae of Wes- leyan College, has retained her interest in versecraft since leaving the school and has been a frequent contributor to magazines of verse.

Miss Morton is poetry editor of the "Scroll", the college magazine, and edits a column, "Facing To- ward Parnassus." She is literary editor of the Quadrangle, the college annual, and president of the Poetry Club. She has been the college press correspondent for the past two years and has had accepted for publication in College Verse two poems, "A Broken Vine," and "Forsaken House."

Miss Glass is the daughter of Jewel Faver Glass and Neil Glass, of LaGrange. She was the editor- in-chief of the L. H. S. Clarion which won national distinction in 1929. She has had accepted for publication in the magazine of the College Poetry Society of America, "College Verse,' a poem' "Land- scape."

Miss Nellie Sue Bailey is the sister of Dean E. A. Bailey of the College. A poem by Miss Bailey, "Storm Strengthened," appeared in the July-August issue of Verse- craft. Her poem, "January," ap- pearing in the January-February

issue of the magazine, received mention by Dr. Wightman F. Mel- ton, editor, in an article in an At- lanta paper as being one of the twelve best contributions out of the 50 contained in the magazine. Miss Bailey was also one of six students receiving honorable mention for the best poems in the first six issues of the magazine. "College Verse," featured Miss Bailey in its March issue with two poems, "After Rain", and "Aviation." Miss Bailey is also on the editor staff of the "Scroll."

One poem from each of these writers appears in the poetry column elsewhere in the paper.

JUNIORS PRESENT MINSTREL, APRIL 6TH

(Continued from page one) given by Miss Frankie Cole, Miss Virginia Moseley, "Sacram e n t o Sousa," and Miss Emeline Goulsby.

An afterpiece, "The Spirits of Boo Zah," was presented by Miss Mildred Johnston, Miss Bessie Ruth Burtz, Miss Louise Pharr and Miss Nellie Barrett.

Judging from the volume of ap- plause, the Dixie Minstrel Show went off with a "bang." It was truly a night of jokes, song, laugh- ter and much amusement.
