THE CRIMSON AND WHITE
Burraro, N. Y., August 9th, 1913.
Dear Newt. —
My trip so far has been so perfectly wonderful that I fear I ean-
not find enough adjectives to do it justice. After living for seven-
teen years on a Texas prairie, with nothing but flat country for
miles and miles every way you look, and the only water, our muddy
Red River, does it seem strange to you that it seems so wonderful
to me? And the trees! They are so stately and beautiful. Mrs.
Howard says that I musin’t rave over trees until I see the ones around
Boston. But I really can’t help it. You know she hasn’t lived all
of her life on a Texas prairie as I have. Oh! just to think, Nell
dear, that I, insignificant I, am going to Boston, dear old sedate _
Boston that I have dreamed about all my life. I can hardly believe
it.
Well, I think that it’s about time that I began to tell you about
our trip. We left Te for St. Louis, which was a most enjoyable
part of our journey. We took a sight-seeing car around St. Louis,
and left that same night for Chicago.
We arrived in Chicago the following morning. T fell in love with
it at first sight. There most of us had for the first time a ride on
the elevated cars. My, but they go fast! It was lots of fun, and
real interesting to look in people’s windows and see how they live.
We tried to act as if we were used to such things, but IT just know
that we had “ country ” written all over us.
We spent all day Friday seeing Chicago. A big city is a wonder-
ful place with all its traffic, great tall buildings on either side of the
street, and elevated trains roaring above you. And then to see the
hundreds of people of all classes, none of whom you know, or expect
to see again. T realized then that I really was nothing but an atom
of this big world after all.
Saturday morning we ted Marshall Field’s. We ate lunch
the top floor of a beautiful Inch room. The walls and ceiling were
paneled in Ci ian walnut, and the furniture was of the same
wood. A pretty fern was on each table.
The very best part of our trip began that afternoon, when we
” which was waiting for us on the Chi-
cago river. We spent the afternoon getting acquainted with our
ship, and in watching Chicago disappear. The air was so much
cooler on the water, that T was glad that T had brought my heavy
suit, even if it did seem perfect foolery to take it when we were
sweltering in Texas.

Oh! the good things we had to eat those few days! Fish every
meal, besides meat and piles of other things. We had splendid
appetites. The lake air was surely invigorating.
We had staterooms on the upper deck, two for the girls, and two
for the boys. The first night the boat was so crowded that cots had
to be put up in the dining room, Ruth and T pitied one lonesome
girl, and took her into our stateroom.
The first night out it thundered and rained. We wished that the
boat would rock, but the wind did not blow.
Sunday morning it was still cloudy. The hills along the shore
stood out rugged and solemn. Hardly a sound was to be heard. It
was cool, and I could imagine the folks at home going to church,
fanning themselves on account of the heat.
Glen Haven seemed to be mostly hills and docks, but T was told
that there were several summer resorts behind the hills. Tere our
boat unloaded, and we were much more comfortable.
Sunday afternoon we stopped at Charl —the Beautiful —
which was certainly well named. We went into the harbor about
sundown. Tt w: aped like a letter c. The water was so smooth
that the reflections of the trees and hills upon
reminded me of a looking There were a few sail boats here
and there. To the south, west, and north stretched the shore, lined
with beautiful homes and trees. Behind it all the stm, which was
setting, gave a beautiful tint to the water. Tt was a picture of lovli-
ness and vest. When we left it was dark, and all that one could see
were the lights that lined the shore.
Monday was clear and beautiful. We had so much to see. We
reached Mackinae early in the morning, and stayed there four hours.
We tramped about all over the island, and found it to be very beanti-
ful.
When we left Mackinae we had some followers, the sea gu T
had never seen any before, and T sat for one whole hour watching
them. They are so pretty, all white with a touch of gray on their
wings. When they ride on the waves they look just like ducks.

We all got into a funny old wagon with a funnier man to drive, and
rattled up a stony road to see Bridal Veil Falls. It drops from quite
a height in a wide, thin stream, hiding the rocks behind it like a thin
curtain,
Tu the afternoon we arrived at Little Current. Several Indians
were waiting at the dock with baskets full of things which they had
nade. They ave so backward and dull. We went walking around
town, which was a very dull place. The only exciting thing was a

AUNT SARAH’S LEGACY.
The two sisters, Sarah and Dorothy, sat in their one small bed-
room on the top floor of a shabby lodging house. Dorothy we
ing to be a singer, and Sarah was studying painting in hopes that
some day she would become an artist. Their parents had died
striv-
several years ago, leaving the two poor orphans to carn their own
living.
Tt was seven o’clock in the morning. The two girls had just
finished their scanty breakfy
picked up the dishes. Dorothy was bending over an old coat which
she was trying to mend to wear that morning.
t. Sarah had a sorrowful face, as she
“Oh, dear,” sighed Dorothy, “1 think it's a shame the way we
have to serape along, while that rich old aunt of ours in Boston is
just rolling in money, and all just because of a little family quarrel
hetween father and her. Tt’s a pity the way we have to live, Pd like
to tell her so, too! ””
“Never mind, Dot dear,” Sarah said in her soft voice, as she came
ever and laid her hand on Dorothy’s shoulder. ~~ We'll try and get
#long the very best that we can.”
“Yes, but don’t you see it’s like this —”
Just then there was a lond knock at’the door, Dorothy hurried
to answer the knock. A letter was handed her by the landl:
“From whom can it possibly be?” exclaimed Dorothy, tearing
open the envelope and hastily scanning the contents, “ Why! [ts
from Aunt Sarah’s lawyer. Te says that she’s dead and that we are
to be present at the reading of the will. She must have remembered
us. That means that these hard day:

They immediately prepared for the journey, and left on the first
train for Boston, arriving there late that afternoon, When they
reached the home of their late aunt, the housekeeper met them at
the door, After resting, and

Dorothy walked out of the room with her head high in the air,
und Sarah following closely behind her. When they reached the hall,
and the door had been closed, Sarah’s arm fell lovingly about Dot’s
shoulder and she said,
“Never mind, dear. I know it’s a great disappointment to yon,
but we'll have to make the best of it.”
“Well, I think it’s a pity she couldn’t leave her namesake any
more than an old silk dress. You certainly deserve something for
bearing such a name all your life. Tf I had been in her place, T
would have been ashamed of myself!”
“Oh, come, Dot, Aunt Sarah saw fit to do as she did, and all your
talking won’t'help one bit.” Sarah tried to put on a bold front,
iIthough she was on the verge of tears herself.
The two girls started back on the first train to New York. Dorothy
carried the cat in a basket, as the eat was her only legacy from Aunt
Sarah. She took it home more as a joke than anything else. Sarah
carried the old silk dress in a worn hand bag.
They were down-hearted girls, not knowing what the future would
bring.

Two years later we find the two girls in the same shabby room.
They were counting the few pennies they had left in the world.

since past mending, rose mournfully, and went over to the old trunk,

from Boston, two ago. As she walked to where Dorothy was
sitting, she said in a dejected manner,
“Well, perhaps I can fix it over, so T can wear it. Everything
else is worn out.”
She started to eut off the buttons, of which there were a great
many. One fell to the floor and rolled towards Dorothy’s chair.
As Dorothy picked up the button to hand back to Sarah, she saw
something that » through the torn silk covering. She hastily
tore the silk ay ich left a bright gold piece shining in her hand.
“Oh!” Dorothy exclaimed, “ Tt's a twenty-dollar gold piece! ”
“Why, bless her heart! Aunt Sarah wasn’t so bad after all!”

CHANCE OR PROVIDENCE?
It was dawn. We had risen early in order to enjoy a day’s outing
with a party of friends, who were camping down the river. We were
riding in a phaeton and driving a young horse called Prince.
The sun was beginning to peep over the cliffs on the eastern side
vf the Susquehanna river, which we were approaching. The distant
cliffs looked purple through the rising mist, and their tops were out-
lined with gold. In the distance at our right were broad fields of
ripening wheat waving in the morning breeze, and tinted by the
rising sun, so that they resembled a lake of gold with slowly undulat-
ing waves. On either side of the road the sun’s rays made the dew-
drops sparkle, as if each grass blade had blossomed, and each blossom
were a diamond.
The air vibrated with life. It quickened the pulse and made one
glad to be alive. Tt seemed as if nature had purified herself and
lad dressed in her glad garments for a holiday. Even Prince felt
the exhilarating influence, and pranced, danced, and pricked up his
ears, looking askance at every moving object as if to invite a race.
As we rode on we chatted about many different subjects as girls
will do. As we looked at the light floating clouds that someway
reminded us of angels, Alice said,
“Do you remember, Sue, I used to believe in guardian angels,
and T truly believed that at night their tents were pitched around
the house. When T had been bad, I used to steal out of bed and look
out, hoping my wickedness had not driven them away!”
“Well, there are angels of course,” I replied, “but I do not
think they have the power to guard us or keep us from harm.
Every accident is due to carelessness, and if you don’t happen to be
killed it’s just due to chance. Do you think if T were to drive off
the edge of that road that winds around the cliff, some good guardian
angel would hold up one side of this phacton? ”
“Perhaps Providence, or whatever you call it, would let us fall
over on a nice soft spot,” Alice suggested. “ You don’t know but
that the angels at this very moment are selecting a place for such an
occurrence.”
“Do be quiet, Sue, T thought you had more sense,” T replied.
“Oh, Sue!” Alice exclaimed, “ We’ve taken the wrong road. This
Jeads to that dugout along the cliffs.”
“Well, let’s not turn back this time,” T argued, “Tt’s so mueh
shorter this way, and there is such a splendid view from the’ cliffs
along the river.” =

“ But father, you know, Sis, has forbidden us to take this road!”
“Oh, he won’t mind just this once, and besides what one does not
know will not hurt one.”
“That's very truce, Alice; we are only held accountable for our
own debts, but many of our bills would be lighter if we would take
the advice of our elders.”
The view from the cliffs along the river was more beautiful than
we had anticipated. The river and the cliffs meet and they both wind
in and out together.
The carriage road is cut out of solid rock on the side of the cliff
ubout one hundred feet above the river. On one side the cliff extends
upwards for hundreds of fect, on the other side the rock stops
abruptly, leaving a perpendicular descent to the river, The road
y rrow that one carriage could not pass another, Tn order to
make travel possible, at certain distances the vock had been dug out,
making a sort of aleove to allow the pas of teams.
As T looked to our right and saw only a few feet of road separat-
ing us from the terrible fall to the river, T shuddered and said to
Alice,
“7 wish the guardian angels would keep pretty near us now.”
As Prince shied at some object T trembled and wished that we had
tnrned back and taken the lower road, but it was too late now, To
turn was impossible,
“You remember,

Alice said, “that you are a great believer in
chance. Now the chances are that Prince will see something to jump
at, and you and T—”
“Don't, don’t!” T eried, “Tf we ever get over this road safely,
1 promise you —”
But the promise was never made, for at that moment voices were
heard, and we could hear a runing horse coming towards us.
“A rumaway! a rmaway!” we eried together. Tt was death to

On came the rmnaway horse. As it eame in sight, T saw it was

“Don't let him back!” Alice eried, “Don’t! don’t.”

But nothing could prevent him, for back he would. T was driving
and I tried to keep the wheel from going over the edge of the cliff,
but I felt the back of the phacton gradually sinking. We were going
ever. Now the whole of the back of the phaeton hung over the edge
of the precipice. Then Prince gave a lurch, and a jump and we
were pulled forward. Ife had turned us around in that narrow road,
so narrow that two teams could not pass each other,
T listened for the runaway but all was quiet. Tad the horse
jumped off the cliff? T first thonght. We looked back, and there
stood the trembling animal. One wheel had come off from the buggy,
and the end of the axle had caught again:
which foreed the horse to stop. Tad he gone six feet further he
would have pushed us off into the dark waters.
That night in our own little room at home, after the lights were
out, T saw Alice standing at the window.
“What are you doing, dear?” IT asked. She motioned to me to
join her, and looking out in the moonlight said,
“They are there, T know. Tt was not chance that saved us, but
some dear guardian angel loosened that wheel just in time.”

“Girls, what do you say to electing that cute little imp of a new
girl, Emily Somebody or other, into our She’s the brightest

The president of the jolliest society in the “ Winsten School for

girls with beaming eyes.
“Why, Ruthie, you can’t mean that litthe Emily Barton! She's
rather bright and snappy, but — why she’s only a freshman, Ruth.”
And Natalie Harper’s eyes were wide open with astonishment.
“But she is the one T mean, Emily Barton — that’s her name.
T remember now. She is only a freshman as you s Natie, but
she’s worth taking in. She has more go in her than lots of the upper
elassmen, and she’d be heaps of fun — you know she would.”

“We surely would,” emphatically declared several other girls,
* especially so carly in the year.” And the matter was dropped then
and there, for Ruth Leighton was uot a girl to force her companions
into her way of thinking. If they did not agree with her, she would
not press them,

Emily Barton ran across the campus to the gymnasium. It was
nearing the close of the school year, and the big basketball game of
the season was to take place in three days. All was excitement, as
this was the final game with Harding, a neighboring girls’ college.
The team was practicing now, and Emily
watching them with eager eyes. She dearly loved basketball, and
had been captain of a team in high school, but unfortunately, had
been debarred from a place on this team, on aecount of the doctor’s
decree that her heart would not permit her to take violent exercise.
She had rebelled at first, and played a little, but had finally yielded.
Lately she had been feeling so much better, that she knew the doctor
would soon allow her to play. Practice went on, the girls playing
unusually well. At the end of the hour the coach assured them that
if they played as well on the “ big” day, they would certainly eome
off with flying colors.
The great day came at last. The “gym” was gaily decorated
with crepe paper, one end with the blue of Harding and the other
with the red of the home team. The game started at a quarter past
two, amid great excitement, At the close of the first quarter, the
seore stood three to two, in favor of Winsten, but at the end of the
first half Harding had scored several points to Winsten’s three. The
heme team was getting too excited and nervous to play well. The
game was proceeding again, when something happened. Natalie
Iarper had sprained her ankle, and she was the captain of the team!
What would they do?
From her seat near the scene of action, Emily Barton had seen
the crisis. Springing up, she ran quickly into. the ilressing room,
and within two minutes returned garbed in h nvm” sit, Natalie
had just been carried out, and the team was holding a hurried con-
versation at the end of the room, Emily immediately ran over to
where they were, spoke a few words with them, and the team,
reassured, but still doubtful, was ready to begin again.
The new captain carried fresh vigor and enerey with her, and the
team responded nobly. All the girls played hard and well, but
Nttlo Emily Barton led them all. She could put the ball any place
she wanted it, and, at the end of the last half, after a hard
seore stood eight to seven in favor of Winsten, Harding hadn’t
sat down on a bench,

scored a point since Emily Barton’s advent in the field. Singing and
-houting, the girls exultingly bore her around the “ gym” on their
shoulders. She was the center of attraction, and in the first breath-
ing space, Ruth Leighton managed to call proudly to the girls of her
society, “She can save the day if she is ‘only a freshman.’ Don’t
you think we’d better break the record?”
And in one voice came back the girls’ joyful answer, “ Yes, indeed
we had.” F. M. MeD, 714.
A MODERN PRISCILLA.
Molly Dean was a dear, charming little girl of twelve years.
Upon her clean bright face there was ever a beaming smile of happi-
ness. She had sparkling, true blue eyes and a saucy little nose that
was somewhat inclined toward the sky.
Molly had always lived in the country. She, as did few country
girls of her age, loved the wonders of the field and wood.’ She en-
joyed the several long walks and lessons she had taken with her
teacher, aman about twenty years old. IIe also took great delight
in the interesting little Molly, whom he loved to hear talk in her
delightful way. He would listen with great enthusaism to the praises
of Molly’s older sis She was a real wonder as pictured by her
devoted sister although she had nothing but a country school eduea-
tion.
John Brooks, as the teacher was called, became very much inter-
ested in Molly’s sister. One day he asked Molly to bring her sister
with her when she came for a walk. This ine ident was repeated
many times until at last Brooks thought that Mol
was the girl for whom he should live and live his best.
Several times during the following week Molly’s watehful eye
seen her much-admired teacher talking very seriously to his boar
house lady, a dear elderly woman. Molly immediately bega
think that he was in love with her. At least that was Molly
of love. One morning as she passed the house where her teacher
boarded, she saw him tenderly stoop and kiss her. Then he joined
Molly, saying “Tl try my best to-day.”
That day was the day of their walk, and as it now the enstom
Molly’s sister went with them. Tt w fine clear day, that promised
to yield to them many of nature’s secrets. They had reached their
destination when Priscilla suddenly realized that she had dropped
her handkerchief.
“Molly, dear,” begged the contriving sister, “won't you please go
get it for me? See, there it is at the bottom of the hill, Please?”
er, Priscilla,

« Let me go,” offered Brooks.
“Oh, no; I am sure Molly will, and perhaps when she comes back
we shall have a surprise for her.”
At the mention of a surprise Molly was running down the hill.
At the place designated she found Priscilla’s dainty white handker-
chief. Still suspecting nothing, Molly quickly returned. As she
approached, she heard Brooks say,
“ There is something that T have wanted to tell you. I— I mean
some kind of a spider that T wanted to tell you about to-day,” stam-
mered Brooks, much embarrassed.
The next morning he again kis:
good-bye, and Molly heard him “Til ask her to-day
That evening after school Brooks called Molly to him and said,
“You have probably watched me lately, so please take this note
to —I guess I don’t have to tell you to whom.”
“ Oh, no!” said Molly confidently.
A few moments later Molly was pulling the front doorbell of the
house where Mr. Brooks boarded. She calmly handed Mrs. Sim-
mons the letter, and hurried on.
Mrs, Simmons opened the letter and read, “ My dearest Priscilla.”
At once she detected the mistake. She read no farther, but delivered
the note to Molly’s sister, who was just passing by on her way to the
mill.
Then John Brooks caught up with her and together they walked
along the shady path. Te was much emb ed by her silence.
As he looked at her she appeared more lovely than ever before. Then
quietly she asked, “Why dou’t you ask for yourself, John ?”

14 THE CRIMSON AND WHITE
We take great pleasure in welcoming to the Normal the Class of
1917 (that’s a very dignified title for “ freshies,” isn’t it?). We
hope that they may be snecessful in all their work, and become as
fond of and loyal to the N. H. S. as we older students are. We also
hope that they may develop plenty of school spirit, and every one
subscribe to “ The Crimson and White.”
The new school year has brought a few changes to our staff.
Sarah Davison has left school, and Caroline Lipes 715, has been
clected to her place as Alumni Editor. Edward McDowell 714, one
of our Advertising Agents, has resigned, and Gilbert Daring 714,
has been chosen in his stead. We are more than sorry to lose these
members of “The Crimson and White” board, but feel sure that
their positions will be very satisfactorily filled by the two above men-
tioned students.
Did you ever stop to realize what an important part of your school
paper the advertising is? Many papers of its kind are supported by
the returns from this department alone. Here is the very place for
you to show your school spirit. Go to your “butcher, or baker, or
candle-stick maker,” and see if you cannot gather in a few “ads.”
We would also ask you to remember the watchword, “ Patronize our
advertisers,” it is only fair to them. A little help of this kind from
students would mean a great deal toward the betterment and advance-
ment of your school organ among publications of its class.

SCHOOL NOTES.
Tere we are, back again at dear old “ Normal,” ready to start in
upon another year of work and fun, We have a new neighbor, the
Albany High School, which seems to be inclined to look down upon
us. But we shall make up by our quality what they gain by their
quantity, shall we not? We'll show them what we can do! Not-
withstanding the allurements of their new building, we have a fresh-
man class fairly large in size, and a dazzling green in color. Why,
imagine, those little infants even have the presumption to use the
front stairs! Do you think that that privil is especially granted
to you, freshies, while all your upperelassien are obliged to use the
side entrances? Better take the advice of us old folks, and abandon
this habit, or you may suddenly find yourselves in very hot water,
Tn spite of all your faults, you bid fair to be a very interesting addi-
tion to our school, and we extend a most hearty weleome to you, one
end all.
On looking around on “first day,” we failed to find a number of
cur old friends, who did not return to school this year, among them,
16 THE CRIMSON AND WHITE
several members of the Class of 716. Olga Meyer and Ruth Wishart
have both moved out of town, the former to Oswego, the latter to
White Plains. Olive Foskett and Gertrude Lathrop have gone to the
Albany High School, while Dorothea Horton is attending the Girls
Academy, Bill Cameron has left school, But the Class of 16 also
has some new members — Catherine Buellay and Minnie Coughtry.
Welcome to the class and school, girls!
Olive Bishop and Ruth Holder, former members of the Class of
16, who were obliged to leave during last year’s term because of ill
health, have returned to school. We regret to say that Trene Wood,
who entered this year’s freshman class, has had a severe attack of
appendicitis, and will be unable to resume her school work for some
time.
Sarah Davison, of the Class of 715, has not returned to school, and
Pauline Dinkel, of the same class, is wp in the Adirondacks for her
health. We are very sorry, and hope that she may be able to return
in the near future, Marion Rosa is attending the Albany Tigh
School. Tlelen Buellar has entered this class.
One of our oldest friends, Eloise Lansing, a Senior, has been very
ill with typhoid fever, since before school opened, She is much better
now, and we are eagerly awaiting the day when she shall once more be
with us, for we have missed her very much, The Misses Lineoln and
Johnson have entered the Class of ?14, and we are glad to see that
one of our old schoolmates, Edith Picken, has returned, after an
absence of two years. We have another new member, Edmund
O'Connor, from the C, B.A. Helen Fleming is attending the Albany
Tigh School.
The Senior Class held its first meeting of the year on September
26th, and sueeeeded in choosing, in an amaz short time, its class
pins and rings, which will soon be proudly displayed on the bosom or
finger of almost every member of the class.

ulations, girls! We welcome you to our midst!
Was there ever anything more fun than an initiation? This last
one proved no exception to the rule, and the suecess which attended
ull our deep plots laid for the unwary and — how can we write it —
irembling victims, certainly provided lots of fun for all, Of course
we must add that our languishing and exhausted initiatees were
fortified by a most splendid repast at the conclusion of the cere-
monies.
We have decided that although our Freshmen this year are a trifle
abstreperous, they are really a dear lot of growing infants, and we
must give them a chanee to display their talents. Therefore, a
Freshman rush will be held about the last of this month, and we
will be more than pleased to shake hands with our new fellow-students
at that time.
And now, at the beginning of this new school year, loyal members
of “Quin,” lef us one and all rally around the “ Black and Gold,”
striving always fo raise those colors a little higher toward a lasting
success, by our ever-ready and willing support.

The fraternity again weleomes the ‘“ Lost Soule” among its

Adelphoi has a committee working to find a series of subjects for
coming debates. There is also a committee preparing for our annual
vide and dance next month, From present indications of oratory
on the part of MeDowell, Scott, Hochstrasser and Long, it looks as
if Adelphoi would have a creditable entry in the June speaking
contest.
Theta Nu.
Theta Nu is with us again this year, The first meeting was held
on September 24, All the members attended this meeting, and
plans were at once begun for the coming year. Some of our old
members have not returned to school, but those who did have
determined to make 1918 a very successful term for Theta Nu.
