The classical library is not hard to find room 205, on tho second floor, opposite the west chapel door. If you open the door you will bo met by a flooding sound of laughter mingled with the drone of voices and a peculiar Incessant rattle, as though many dice players were at a game. When you enter, you find that this rattling pro ceeds from many pencils drumming in cessantly and aimlessly on tho rough wooden tables. No one notices you everyone is talking. This Is the secret of the place, its essential spirit "no Bilence allowed." Everyone talks; no one studies. The good fellowship that meets here knows no limits, no am bition, no duty. Time is measured by tho drum of idle fingers; ambition is satisfied when wit gains applause; duty lurks outside the sacredrdoor, but never enters, if you have never been there if you would have rest go, and bo contented. Chapel Time. There Is only one thing better than going to chapel, and that is watching other people go. Human nature es capes in the crowd, passes control, and plays strange tricks. Here comes a petite demoiselle with blue eyes, wind- fluttered hair, and a laugh which echoes above the surrounding voiceB. She talks to a lounging boy, punctu ating her words with alluring side glances and witching noddlngs of her pretty blonde head. Pie only pushes his hat farther back, thrusts his hands more deeply into his pockets, and nods superciliously. Through the current little eddies run. Knots collect in the troubled crowd, grow larger, swing and sway a moment with tostf of hand, tip of hat, question, answer and repartee and finally explode in a burst of laughter scattering them into the mass. Individuals make troubled journeys. A girl In a red waist and wide, flopping hat starts from the library steps, has an escort on each side before she knows it, smiles, talks to both, bowB to tipping hats. She collides with a crowd of girls, who surround and overwhelm her, loses her two masculine friends, emerges laughing, finds a waiting boy who smiles sympathetically as he joins her and goes on her way. Every where the girls laugh and talk, the boys laugh and nod, the hats go up and down, and the crowd glides merrily on. Tbo Third Story Window. Outside the office window the dus"k closes la heavily, blotting the dull sky. Far on Jthe prairie, beyond the city roofs and the twinkling lights the night mists eddy gloomily, blotched with trailing smoke. It is to be one of those cold, soggy nights when the world sleeps in a blanket and the stars are only a memory After all, on such nights winter is at its best. Your clear nights with a soft moon and friendly Btars are' entrancing enough In summer when young folks go walk ing and old folks dream in the warm dusk. But on these cold nights, when the Are draws and tho wind whistles, an outward glqpm only makes indoors the merrier. Winter is the time for the home circle and the evening lamp, and cannot dress too soberly for his mission. ... A Chop lfouae Idyl. At last I have found a chop house that suits me. It is a little- oox of a room on one.pl the Bide streets, where asfaid'old darjey with a black, pointed beard and white apron bakes waffles in tho front window, and where a handsome, middle-aged darky, with very black shiny cheeks and a very black, curly moustache and very white teeth rushes about In n dim background of white tables and chatting guestfl, with a perennial smile on his face and a pyramid of steaming dlBhes In each hand. You can eat at one of tho square, prim tables, or at tho more democratic counter, sitting in a Bwing chair, with your hat pushed back on your head. Tho pie molts in your mouth and everything Is cooked "like yo' mothah cooked It, Bah." Social Service." On the other side of the wall tonight four girls are singing. The song runs lilting smoothly, the piano thrums steadily, the voices rise and fall. I would like to bo over there. Ordinar ily I am the least social of human ani mals, but tonight I am lonely. Tho old pasteboard shade casts its quiet round of light on the floor. The little clock ticks monotonously. In the far corners the shadows become tangible and unfriendly. On such evenings as this I am saved from becoming a dreamer. The touch of music or tho sound of distant voices pierces below the superficial content of self-knowledge and I find within myself a de sire for the experiences of others. I become dissatisfied with mere theory and must have a touch of practical life. SO It is good for us all, I suppose, that we be dragged forth, as it were, by our social Instincts and made to perform our part in the common life; at least to appreciate the actuality of that common life and give It rightful place in our thoughts. It Is as often society which eaves the thinker, by a word, a song or a touch from Its outer sanity, as the thinker who saves spclety. M. S. Oliver Theater Pharmacy.
