The central figures in this truthful tale are Messrs Gai'th and Long. The former was the first man to have the degree of J. M. conferred upon him. This tale then continues that Mr. Garth thought it best to seek greater opportunities, so went elsewhere. The next year Mr. Raymond Long was the recipient of the degree of S. M., and as this writer states it, "did his work faithfully and well, not only acting as big brother to one hundred and thirt.v-seven girls but also making provisions so that these girls should have one who would be as a big sister to them."

Truly this is a record of misunderstandings, of vociferations; then of understanding and gentleness, and later of joyful pilgrimages from Senior-Land
home country. The dwellers in Senior-Land had received as an heritage from their predecessors the idea that a holiday should be given them in the Spring. The Ruler of this Land showed the dwellers that this "holiday" was a privilege he had granted them, and was not theirs by right. The question of a "holiday" was finally settled to the satisfaction of both parties concerned. This story is closely related to The Man We Love. to the

The music rang clear, and merrily, from the throats of one hundred and happy seniors, who, having laid aside their looks of dignity, were entering into the spirit of the occasion, with hearts light and gay. And what was the occasion? Why, listen and I'll tell you. Up at the Normal School, the class of stately seniors, took it upon themselves to add unto their number, a wise and mighty counselor, knowTi as Mr. Raymond Long. Many pleasant moments did he give the class, and words of wisdom and advice did he expound to them. One night while thinking of his senior class, and realizing their love of sport, he decided that he would make glad their fifty
hearts with a real, true oyster roast.
The next day, our beloved class president, told the band of stately seniors of the delightful feast in store for them, given by our " Senior Man." At 3:45 the girls, clad in white middy-suits, sweaters,
and
caps, assembled in front of the
auditorium, quite as excited as any crowd of children would be, in search of adventure.
When

the signal for the start was given, the girls,
marching
off in groups of threes and fours, began to enter into the fun, which, beginning at that moment, continued for the rest of the evening. Drawing near the spot known as " Lithia Springs," the girls were greeted with a wonderful sight. Over in the distance, among the trees, could be seen
burning brightly and cheerfully, two huge fires. Now and then, white-capped and white-aproned figures, could be seen moving here and there. The girls, urged on by the scene, moved quickly to the spot. How they did laugh as they recognized that the white-capped figures were no other than their teachers and friends Messrs. Lear, Somers, Coyner, and Duke who were surely making model chefs What a merry time the girls did have Seated "in rings around the fire, watching the oj'sters roasting in the bright flames, they sang, cheered,

Having spent a merry hour or two before the bright
fire,
they were soon,
oh so soon, told that they must depart to the Normal. !
Before leaving, the happy seniors, cheered for their senior man, the wonderful chefs, their class, and the Normal. As they walked back to the school, in the starry night, the following songs floated in the air
