68 THE CRIMSON AND WHITE
AURORA.
“But the loveliest part of the day, I say,
Ts the coming of the dawn.”
So testified Guido Reni when he painted the beautiful Aurora,
now exhibited in the Rospigliosi Palace at Rome, and known far
and wide as one of the world’s twelve greatest masterpieces.
The painting combines the beauty of nature with the poetry of
Grecian mythology, and represents far more of the truth than a
casual observer realizes. Ie sees, perhaps, the details of the picture.
At the left side is a male figure drawn in a chariot by horses, and
surrounded by female figures. In the center, above the horses, is a
cherub with a torch, In the: upper right hand corner is a flying
female figure. Tn the lower nt hand corner is a bit of landscape.
And is that all?
No, If that is all, the picture is worth nothing, But we are
reckoning without the mytholos The maiden at the right is
Aurora, the Goddess of the Dawn. The cherub is Lucifer, the
Morning Star, The girls about the chariot are the Hours of the
Morning. The youth in the chariot is Apollo, the God of Musie,
of Poetry, of the Bow — but here, in the strongest of all his char-
acters, God of the Sun, And the divine steeds are drawing him
through the clouds in the sun chariot. But is that all?

The chill of night was still upon it —and the forbidding stillness
cneireled it about, Suddenly, in the east, the clouds parted, as though
a gentle hand were drawing them aside. Then came the border of a
pale, saffron robe — the outline of a slender foot upon the horizon’s
edge —a rose dropped from some unseen hand —and then the
Dawn Maiden was revealed, smiling brightly back over her shoulder,
as she came flying gently through the clouds, seattering rosy

THE HIDDEN CLOSET.
Mildred Oliver lived in one of those old, colonial houses on the
Hudson, which often sheltered General Washington in the time of
the Revolutionary War. It had been in the family ever since her
great-great-great-grandfather had settled there after the war, It
possessed all of the mysterious staircases and rooms, to say nothing
of the moving walls and doors, about which one reads.
Mildred was home from Mount Holyoke for the Thanksgiving
vacation and had asked five girls and five boys to spend the holidays
with her, at her old home. They had spent the fe antly
until next to the last one. When they awoke it was raining very
hard. It almost seemed as if the very heavens would have to fall.
A very disconsolate set of faces appeared at the breakfast table, and
Mildred was at her wit’s end to know how to amuse her guests. Mrs.
Oliver divined the difficulty, and calling Mildred aside, suggested
that she put the old relies in the hidden closet, where they had once
heen found, and let her guests work out the key of the directions
and try to find them. Ter mother promised to give each one some
trinket,
When Mildred told the young people about her plan, it was met
with shouts and cries of excitement and pleasure. So she ran upstairs
to the safe and procured the eode. It was covered with a mass of
numbers, ranging from one to fifty-two.
All the guests followed Mildred to the library, where the code was
spread on the table. Everyone crowded around it, and each one had
a solution, Finally they decided to copy it on sheets of paper so
that everyone could have a copy. They settled down in’ comfortable
chairs and went to work amid eries of, “ Keep Still! ”"—‘ Don’t do
it out loud ’— and so forth. It was decided that the first
solved it was to lead the way to the hidden closet.

They tried every way, having one equal to a, two to b and so forth,
but no one was able to decipher it. Suddenly Jack Leonard, a
Harvard fellow, yelled, “ T’ve got it!” and everyone crowded around
him. This was what they saw on Jack’s paper:

Ascend steep ascent

Then right right.
The old paper was covered with these marks > >. They de-
cided that if they found the marks they would help to follow the
directions.
Now that Jack had deciphered the code if was necessary to
“translate ” They puzzled over it for nearly half an hour before
Marie, Mildred’s roommate, discovered what it was. She said that
the first “right” in all cases was merely an adverb, and put there
only to make it more difficult to follow. So Jack put commas in his
solution and read it aloud. Everyone repeated it so as to be able to
remember it.
Jack led the way with the directions in his hands. They went
south, from the library to the kitchen. They stopped for a moment
puzzling over the steep descent. Soon they came to the conclusion
that it must mean the cellar stairs, and sure enough, on the steps
they found the mark >. They then turned to the right
lowed the marks until they found one pointing to a door. T \
tried to open, but were not suecessful, and finally called Mildred
to their aid. She opened the door by stepping on a little projection
on the floor, near the wall, which opened it without a squeak. They
soon saw another mark pointing to the stairs, which had been hidden
by the door. Mildred explained that this was one of the many
such stairways in her house. They climbed the stairs and came out
through a trap-door in the floor into a large room in the attic. Jack
read in deep tones, * Turn left, correctly,” and followed the mark,
on the floor through a door and into a small room with no other
opening in it.
Everyone was puzzled by the last direction, “ Tum right, right.”
They walked around the room mumbling it under their breath and
thinking very hard. Ted was the one who finally solved it, deciding
that the hidden closet was somewhere in that room and that they
must turn right to find it. » everyone went back to the door and
Ted led the way. Turning sharply to the right, he walked to the
wall. Everyone crowded on the floor and examined the wall closely.
No one discovered any crack or projection until Dorothy sereamed
excitedly, “I’ve found it, I’ve found it!” And found it she cer-
tainly had, for when she pointed out a long crack and placed her
hand on it, it moved ever so slightly. They jumped up and down
in excitement and Dorethy with the help of one of the boys slid the

FLORA ARMSTRONG’S SURPRISE.
Flora Armstrong sat in a dejected attitude before the cheerful,
lot little stove. ILad the stove been cold it would have been more
in keeping with her feelings. Iler wandering glance took in, without
heeding, the simple appointments of the room in which she sat.
Mhis room, with He tiny sleeping room adjoining, and the’still smaller
kitchen, meant home to Flora and her sister Jennie.
Jennie, who worked in a downtown office to cam the money to
keep this little apartment, was enjoying an unexpected holiday.
Friends living across the river had invited her to visit them, Flora
had urged her to go, and had said she would not mind stay
not like being alone, for another family, the Brown’s, lived

they saw her, they had begun talking about something else. Just
then the school-bell had rung and school studies had driven the matter
from her mind for the time being. But the unpleasant incident had
been repeated again and again during the day. The girls had
grouped themselves together at every chance, leaving Flora entirely
to herself. Their attitude had been too pointed for her to ignore it.
This was St. Valentine’s Day, and evidently someone was going to
have a party to which she had not been invited.
Now, as she crouched before the fire, Flora wondered how it would
seem to have a Valentine party. Never before had it troubled her
that she was not one of those favored girls who have parties, but
tonight the fact brought bitterness.
“Tf I'd been invited, IT wouldn’t mind never having one of my
own so much,” she thought. “ Tere I am, all alone, while the other
girls are enjoying themselves.”
Common sense whispered that perhaps the girl who was to have
the party did not know her, and that was the reason why she had
not been invited. Oh, there were plenty of plausible reasons!
But she scowled and thought resentfully, “It’s because ’m poor
and liye in three shabby rooms that I’m left out.” Such a silly idea
had never entered her head before, but now it had been brought there
by that imp, Envy.
She forgot that she had had no supper. She did not notice that
the room was growing darker and darker. She sensed only the
bitterness in her heart. She did not even hear a knock upon the
door, although it was repeated three times.
Suddenly the door was thrown open allowing a flood of light to
enter from the hall outside. In the doorway stood a girl dressed
in fluffy pink with a crown of roses upon her head and a huge
bouquet of roses in her hand, She looked exactly like the pictures
on some of the expensive valentines in the windows of the stationery
stores. Flora rubbed her eyes hard, for she thought that she was
dreaming. Then there came suppressed laughter from the hallway.
The girl in the doorway pushed forward, while a whispered
“Hurry up!” broke the stillness. i
“Oh, there you are!” cried her guest in a familiar yoice which
Flora recognized as that of her dearest friend, Dolly Weston. “ Tt’s
so dark in here that T couldn’t see you at first. We knew you were
going to be alone, so we thought we would come and cheer you up.
We've come to give you a Valentine party. Aren’t you going to
welcome us?” E. M, 15.

voices within dormitory “ 27.”
Molly Williams, the “clip” of the school, who was passing the
door, heard this exclamation and decided to go in and see what the
subject of their conservation was.
Accordingly she opened the door and was greeted by all the oceu-
pants with great delight.
“Oh, you’re just the girl I wanted to see. Sit down until I unfold
our latest prank,” came from Kitty Harding, Molly’s chum.”
“You see,” continued Kitty, “we have decided to have a colonial
party in my room, on the evening of George Washington’s birthday,
and we want you to come and bring a friend, and come in eoloni
costume, of course! When you came in we were just disc
what Prof. Brown would do if he found it out. Of course, you
know, he wouldn’t approve of it, but it comes on Saturday this year
and he always goes to the club on Saturday evenings. So I don’t
think there is much danger of his finding it ont, do you? Oh, it
will be packs of fun if everything turns ait well! Of course, you'll
come, Moll, won’t yout”
“ Kitty, I’m awfully sorry, but you know our geometry exam
comes on Monday morning and I haven’t studied one proposition since
school opened. T had planned to learn some of them Saturday night,
as T won’t have any other time, and really 1 must. You all know I
would much rather go to the party, but honestly T must give it up,”
replied Molly sorrowfully.
“Oh, Molly, you must come. Youwll get through your geometry
all right!” burst from all the girls.
“No, girls, I’d love to please you, but I can’t this time, There
are the freshmen calling me now; I must go,” said Molly, and with
this she left the room.
When she got outside she burst into a fit of laughter.
“Study Geometry!” No, indeed! This was far from her
intention,
The night of the party arrived and Molly went to the girls, told
them that she hoped they would have a good time and wouldn’t be
found out, and with geometry book in hand, went to her room.
The party was getting along splendidly; many games had been
played and everyone was enjoying herself immensely, when the door
opened and a stately figure entered,
Prof. Brown, and no doubt about it!
74 THE CRIMSON AND WHITE
A look of horror was on each face. Masks were quickly torn off
and hidden, the actors not realizing that Prof. Brown was watching
them.
Silence prevailed. At length Prof. Brown, who seemed to have
grasped the situation very quickly, spoke. “T will not reprimand
you at present,” he said very sternly, “but I will see each person
here in my office at 10:30 tomorrow morning.”
Accordingly a very sorrowful group of girls was in Prof, Brown's
office at 10:30, awaiting a severe lecture or perhaps something worse.
But tht professor was not there and did not come. After waiting
patiently for half an hour, not being able to imagine what kept him,
they repaired to their dormitories. Here their patience was rewarded,
for in each dormitory in a conspicuous place was a note bearing the
following sentence,
“ Molly Williams, alias Prof. Brown.” ELM. A. 715.
FIFTEEN YEARS OF IMPROVEMENT IN
SCHOLASTIC ATHLETICS.
The schoolboy of fifteen years ago had practically but two sports —
baso ball and foot ball.
In those days boys were allowed to participate in games without
any previous examination as to their physical condition, without
their having received any instruction as to how to play, and without
any supervision by any one of experience to prevent a boy from over
exerting himself.
Tf the games, as played in those days, had any really fine points,
these points were discovered by the boys themselves, whereas today
a candidate aequires a thorough knowledge of the game long before
he really takes part in a contest. This knowledge is drilled into
him by clever and competent coaches. What schoolboy of fifteen
vears ago remembers being drilled hy a man whose sole duty in the
school was the coaching bf an athletic team? He may remember
that some of the teachers played in the game, thus unjustly matching
a schoolboy’s strength against that of a man who may have played
on his college team,
Fifteen yea

themselves had not been edueated up to the high standard of sports-
manship which prevails at the present day. This resulted in dis
sigreement and unpleasant conditions, which often severed athletic
relations between schools which had previously been on friendly
terms.
Tn all the good schools of today the various teams are trained by
specialists, who devote their entire time to the supervision of the
different brauches of athletics. The desirability of having competent
and impartial offic
almost universally employed.
Even more important than the improvements in the drilling of
the teams and the regulation of the games has been the marked
elevation of the standard of ethics in athletic sports. Teams which
met with the object of winning the game at all events, merely for
the sake of triumphing over their rivals, now enter the contest in a
more sportsmanlike spirit, and teams representing the best schools
subordinate the object of winning the game to a regard for absolute
fairness in. every respect.
The great increase in the variety of games has afforded a seope
for the ae s of a much larger pereentage of schoolboys than
formerly participated in athletics. It is a source of great satisfaction
that the conditions have so materially improved, but as there is still
room for improvement it is to be hoped that the schoolboy of today
will find as much improvement in athletic conditions fifteen years
from now as the boy of fifteen years ago finds today.
In a nut shell, the schoolboy of today with athletie ambitions, has
many advantages over the boy of fifteen years ago.

THE FOLLOWING IS AN ACCOUNT OF THE DOINGS OF
THE ALUMNI.
This year the December meeting of the Alumni Association was
held on the 19th of the month, at St. Andrew’s Hall, a college function
in the “gym” rendering that place unavailable. Yet when the
evening was over, each one voted that it would have been better to
have ted until a later date, when the Normal “ gym” and a larger
crowd could have been theirs, A great number of their collegiates

had not yet arrived home, and each alumnus pinned on a class pin
and went ferret-eyed through the crowd in search of a duplicate,
feeling inexplicably estranged. The truth was that they were hungry
for the sight of that well-loved building which the last four classes
have consecrated by (not exactly) hard study, and for those battered
institutions connected with the chapel pranks of so many classes —
the Academy Song Books. Not that the old graduates ever sing the
songs, but the first note of any song therein opens the floodgates of
their memories and they are assailed by hundreds of half forgotten
ineidents, while the class last graduated or the senior guests finish
the strain. No reunion is complete without them — let future ones
be complete.
Mr. Sweet, the president, weleomed the assemblage. °13 was back
in all the glory of its first reunion, 12, "11, 710, and ’09 were there
in goodly numbers, 08, ’07, ’06 and ’04 each had several loyal
members to represent them, and in the midst of the throng was the
all-important 714. In the course of the business meeting, Mr. Sweet
mentioned that the first prize offered by the association to the Seniors
for the hihesh average in Regents’ Examinations throveliont the
four yea won by Edith Owen Wallace, 713, and that honorable
mention was given to Marion Domery, ’13, who was a close second.
The executive committee, J. Donohue, C. Ostrander, J. Cody and
Miss EF. Shaver, has arrived at an acceptable solution for the payment
of dues and the various “internal” troubles that were pending last
year. Mr. Sweet also requested that notice of the organization be
brought to the attention of every old student; and it is well to ask
the aid of the undergraduates in this matter.
S
wa
A yery short program was rendered by Mrs. Blanchard, 04, Miss
Edith Jones, ’07, and Clifford Evory, ’08, following which the Zeta
Sigma girls had a meeting. Then the portable seats were carried
aside, and a polished floor, with good music and sherbert in attendance,
gave an all convincing demonstration of its popularity. Late in the
evening Prof. Sayles came to greet them and to receive the good
wishes of the numerous “old ones” that crowded about him. For
cach he had a cordial greeting and his “ Alumni Smile ”— a happy
combination of friendly interest and winning cordiality that he be-
stows impartially on those whom his own hand has graduated and
likewise on those who have received their mystie rolls of parchment
from his predecessors.
Shortly after eleven, as Normal. Highers should, they went home
to wait for the next one, fortifying themselves with this loyal but
highly unpoetical gem:

SCHOOL NOTES.
“Tfurrah! Mid-year over! What a relief!” Are the exelama-
tions now being uttered, or at least felt, by every student at our
beloved N. I. S., and there is, indeed, worthy cause for the jubilation,
after the strain of the last few weeks. Why are teachers so un-
mercifully ernel as to inflict such horrors upon perfectly innocent
pupils? Yet, in spite of exams, and the consequent doom whieh has
been threatening us for the last few weeks, affairs at Normal have
not been at a standstill — strange as it may seem.
On December 4th, Miss Lonise Llewellyn, of the New England
Conservatory of Music, gave her recital of Bohemia and Brittany Folk
Songs. The auditorium was crowded, and many were obliged to stand,
hut did it cheerfully, At Doctor Blue’s introduction, Miss Llewellyn
appeared in a qnaint costume, native to the “little country nestled
among lakes and mountains ’— Bohemia,
The first part of her program consisted of Bohemian Folk Songs,
military, pastoral, sentimental, and religions. Each was precedttl by
a delightful interpretation, which was enjoyed quite as much as the
songs themselves. In the second part, Miss Llewellyn sang more
songs and played upon an old instrument produced in the ninth
century, which she deseribed in her prologue as “ making a hideous
noise, but never failing to please.” We make no comment upon the
“noise,” but it did not fail to please. The program was closed by
a series of songs of Bohemia and Brittany, selected with the purpose
of illustrating their contrast.
The chapel exercises on December 19th, the day preceding the
Christmas recess, were given over to the Zeta Sigma Society of the
school, and the girls certainly “ did it up brown,” so to speak. After
a delightful program of vocal and piano solos, and equally enjoyable
recitations, Eloise Lansing, as the Spirit of Christmas, presented
most suitable and pleasing (%) gifts to our beloved faculty, Tt surely

was lots of fun, and quite a surprise, we believe, to the unsi
recipients. It is now up to the rest of the societies to follow Sigina’s
lead, and show what they can do. We doubt that they will let Sigma
. get ahead of them in this matter, and keep all the lanrels for herself.
We regret to say that Cora Kane, of the Junior Class, has been
obliged to leave school, because of ill-health, and we extend our
heartiest wishes for her speedy recovery and return. Gertrude Shafer,
also of the Class of 715, has departed from our midst, to attend a
school at Middleburgh, where she is now living. We are sorry to
have her go, and hope she will enjoy life at the new school, as well
she has at “‘ Old Normal.”
The Senior Class rings have at last arrived, after long and tiresome
delays, and they are all that was hoped. The Junior Class recently
held its first meeting, at which the class officers were elected, They
are as follows:
President.— J. Woods Sweeney.
Vice-President.— Margaret Lovett.
— Mildred Birdseye.
.— Raymond Fite.
We wish to commend the class upon its excellent choice.
Normal has again carried off more than her share of the honors in
the literary field. Two of our students won prizes, offered by the
New York State Historical ociation, in the on “ The Naval
History of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario During the War of 1812.”
The contest was open for competition to students of any high school
in the State, and so we feel justly proud in stating that the second
prize (fifteen dollars in gold) and also the fourth (five dollars in
gold), beside one honorable mention, were awarded to Normal. The
winners are Marion McDowell and Clara Holder, while honorable
mention was given to Eleanor Dunn, Well done, girls! But that
is not all. In the prize essay contest, offered by the Savings Banks
of Albany, and open to the Albany High School and our school, we
captured three out of the five prizes offered, and all of the honorable
mentions! Tfow’s that for the school, by far the smaller of the two?
And we got the first prize, too. The proud winner of that honor
(together with a bank account of ten dollars) is Katherine Pollock,
of the Senior Class. One of the second prizes and one of the third’s
also fell to our s and were received by Eleanor Dunn, 714, and
Dorothy Russell, °15, respectively, while the honorable mentions were
given to Frances Voshurgh, Helen Page, and Ina Speed, all of 714.
Accept our lively congratulations, girls! (We wonder where the boys
were.)
82 THE CRIMSON AND WHITE
On the thirteenth of March will occur the annual entertainment
for the benefit of “ The Crimson and White.” The program will be
in charge of the Union College Glee Club, Mandolin Club, Guitar
Club, and two soloists. We promise you an enjoyable evening.
ZETA SIGMA.
On one bright day in November the “gym” was dressed in its
best. A grea at hand, for we were to have the privilege
of entertaining the Freshman ¢’ After a flying trip through
several of the neighboring college towns, we rushed our delighted
guests to a near-by lunch counter. Of course, you know what hap-
pened! Games and dancing were then enjoyed by all. We were
proud to see so many of our alumni present.

Friday, December 19th, was Sigma Day. Tt was so named because
we had charge of chapel exercises, a wonderful event for N. IH. S.
We were glad that we might have a chance to prove what we have
gained as a result of our literary programs. The gay bows of dark
green and light blne worn by the Sigma girls put a sort of holiday
spirit into the affair.
Plans are now being perfected for our annual mid-year dance,
which is to be held at the Aurania Club on the evening of February
6th, Those named on the committee are: Caroline Lipes, chairman ;
Ifelen Page, Marguerite Taylor, and Edith Picken.
We are pleased to have Marion Rosa, 715, with us again.
Our meetings as usual have been well attended, while each mem-
her has striven to do her part well. We find that our new members
much talent.

QUINTILIAN LITERARY SOCIETY.
At some of our meetings of late we have been delighted to have
with us various members of our alumnw — Anna Mead, Harriet Ted-
ford, and Mildred Weeks. Besides gratification at their continued
“Quin” and her doings, their presence among us gave us
great pleasure,
Honors have recently been bestowed upon Q. L. 8. girls, which
have justified our pride in them. An essay on the War of 1812,
written by Clara Holder, received fourth prize in a contest held just
before Christmas. This was especially praiseworthy, as competition
was open to the whole State. Margaret Lovett, our sceretary, and
Mildred Birdseye,-our critic, have been elected officers by the Junior
Class, the former to serve as vice-president, and the latter as secretary.
Juniors, you are to be congratulated on your good sense, Knowing
assured of the wisdom of your choice.
The mectings soon to come promise to be busier and even more
interesting than usual, on account of various plans which are being
made for coming events. We very soon expect to invite a number
of youthful Freshmen to join us, and they may look forward to such
an initiation as has seldom taken place in the “gym” before. But
calm yourselves, girls, the fun will not be entirely one-sided by any
mea Remember, however, that wearers of the black and gold are
expected to be eager to endure every peril in order to secure that
honor. another atom of encouragement we call to your attention
the fact that a number of girls before you have survived similar
ordeals, and any Thursday afternoon after one-thirty they may be
seen gathered in Room 302, apparently in good health and spirits.
On the day before the Christmas vacation our Sigma friends took
charge of the chapel exercises, and gave us a delightful hour’s ente:
tainment from which we departed with hands sore from clapping,
and with a jolly, friendly, holiday sort of feeling around our hearts.

We are busily preparing for a similar event on the 27th of March,

a time as they have given us.

day after Easter —another date to be looked forward to with

86 THE CRIMSON AND WHITE
The Kwassui Quarterly (Nagasaki, Japan) is very interesting to
us, not only because of the material which it contains, but also because
it has the added charm, of coming from far away Japan. While
we are not yersed in the Japanese language, the portions of this paper
which are written in English, are almost perfect. The students of
“ Kwassui Jo Gakko” have reason to be proud of this example of
their scholarship.
Of all our exchanges, the M. I. Aerolith (Sheboygan, Wis.) is
the most faithful, This paper is written half in German and half in
English, and, although we cannot read all of the German, we judge
that it ranks high among the school publications. The January edi-
tion shows a change of editors, and they certainly are beginning well.
The jok ‘e very good, and the “ Exchanges ” are particularly well
written up.
The apearance of the Chief (Iladdon Heights, N. J.) is rendered
unlike a “ Chief” because of the poor quality of the paper. ‘The
cover design is very appropriate, however, and the picture which
came with the December issue was certainly fine.
The Purple and Gold (Philadelphia, Pa.) excels both in the quan-
tity and the quality of its euts. The “Alumni” column is more ex-
tensive than those usually found,
The College Echoes (Siloam Springs, Arkansas) is rather insignifi-
eant compared with our other exchanges. You need at least one or
two interesting stories, and some good cuts. THere’s hoping that
your next issue may be such an improvement that we may then rank
you with the best of our exchanges.
ATHLETICS.
