known as "youthful Indiscretions," I
wish to lay a few solemn and mo
mentous truths upon the minds and
hearts of the sons of Washington and
Lee. '
Life in this whirlwind age ' is a
long, fascinating, and varied high
way, full of pleasures and excite
ments unknown to our forefathers,
yet from beginning to end life's road
is today full of rocks, pitfalls, dan
ger points, and hazardous detours. On
this life-highway every Individual
must drive his one and only life-car
from his baby-start to the far-off end
of the tour with no change of car or
engine or chassis or driver. On this
life-tour every faulty valve, swelled
piston, or injured piece of mechanism
may make the whole life of the driver
an long-drawn agony of pain or bring
it to an untimely tragic end.
I am slowly, therefore, and steadily
forming two fixed conclusions, based
on a lifetime of observation and ex
perience. The first is this that the
worst and most harmful feature of
our so-called educational system Is
allowing countless thousands of
young people to wreck their future
happiness, their future success, and
their iuture usefulness for lack of
early training as skillful chauffeurs
of their one and only life-car.
The second truth is more individual
and personal that the young man
who unduly strains or permanently
injures his one life-engine through
childish ignorance and the fascina
tion of youthful "good times" will in
later years pay for every fleeting
moment of these hysteric and trans
ient "good times" with long-drawn
hours of helplessness, failure, and
bodily and mental misery.
My next paragraph will mention
practical examples of such suicidal
youthful indiscretions. Ring Turn

sity.

DISTRESSING NEWS OF MONTESREY
The records in the dean's office show, as our friend so dolefully pre
dicted, that he is seriously ill and will not recover until Friday. We sat at
his bedblde last evening, in a mood of silent sympathy, while he begged us,
with teara in his eyes, to edit the column as if it were our own. We prom
ised it, and after bowing our head in silent prayer, we left him.
- e e i
He told us, however, to publish a request that no flowers be sent him
unless he passes on. In spite of his condition, he indicates that he will fight
bravely and not yield to the temptation to be pessimistic about his recovery.

OCTOBER WIND
Treacherous wind I
You flick my bonfire's flames
Into my face,
And then away;
Carrying the 'sparks like wayward stars,
To the violet sky.
Treacherous wind!
You blow the leaves in and out
Of my fire
And off to safety,
Till I wish I were a leaf to ride
On your whimsical breath.
Treacherous wind!
You tousle my hair and
Kiss my cheek
Like a lover
Kisses meaningless, fleeting, and soft,
But immeasurably sweet.
GWENIVER.
A LITTLE TALE
My friend believes in fairies and the musician of the spheres. As we
were lounging on the grass one summer day, he told me to place my ear
near a small hole in the ground and listen earnestly, so as to hear the fairy
harmonies. I did so, but could hear nothing. After a time, an ant, sorely
wounded by some mischance, dragged himself to the edge of the hole and
went down, while I watched it pityingly.
There came the sound of hurrying and the bustle of first aid from
those subterranean passages. The doctor and the priest were called. Alter
aid was rendered, it was seen that the injured ant would live, though in dis
tress. The priest said it wa the will of the musician of the spheres, to
whom all heads must bow, though none may understand. My crippled
friend cursed the day he. was hurt, and denied the existence of such a must
cian of the spheres, omnipotent, and yet putting such a burden of impo
tence upon him. His pastor chided him in shocked tones, saying that all
men agreed there was a musician of the spheres, or at least a music of the
spheres. .
But the ant was unconvinced. And so he became known as a bad ant,
whom the music of the spheres had punished for heresy. He was estranged
from his friends, and his life became solitary and bitter.
After a time, I could hear no more, and wondered whether it all could
be only fancy. The tragedy had seemed very real. Almost I was persuad
ed there could be no music of the spheres, as the suffering ant had said.
Certainly I was persuaded that an ear pressed close to Mother Earth may
hear wonderful sagas, although there be no fairy harmonies in the depths,
no music of the spheres in high heaven above.

His voice is silent, and his name forgot; -His
ways forsaken, and his memory dim;
His vows are broken and remembered not;
And withered is the rose that bloomed for him.
So soon all lovely things must wither, too ;
The years bear on with them the loves they bring;
So soon, so soon, I'll be forgetting you
Ah, why should we waste time in quarreling?

In answer to the mooted question, often repeated by persons of little
or no humor, 'Who chased whom how many times around the walls of
what?" this was sent in by a feminine contributor:
ACHILLES: A MEMORY
The diabolic laughter echoes far,
Where, just outside the fighting Grecian hosts,
In personal enmity forgetting war
Thera run two shadows, pale and wan as ghosts.
The war-god and his minions scream with joy,
When stout Achilles, vengeance in his mind,
Pursues scared Hector round the walls of Troy
Tall, crumbling walls with footsteps like the wind.
