PROOF OF MILNE’S PROGRESSIVEN
ESS
The question was asked in the Christmas issue of this publication what
progress Milne would make this year. The answers are now so numerous that it
is dificult to decide where to begin. In scholarship, sports, government, socia
activities, and publications, this school has made some very definite advances.
Perhaps the project which will he remembered longest, and which, in its own
way, adds most to the prestige of the school. is that of the library murals, When
completed, this collection of paintings will present a resumé of the entire history
of Albany, and will undoubtedly become a center of public intere
This summer Milne will offer to ambitious students, and to those who forget
to be ambitious, courses in many subjects. Perhaps those attending should be
compelled to arise in the middle of the night and journey to Troy for a week, in
order to appreciate the presence of this paragraph.

A little self-applause for the “Crimson and White”! The weekly newspaper,
entering a national contest at Columbia, won second place in its class, rising one
step above last year’s record. The Christmas Issue of the magazine was made
more elaborate than formerly, due largely to the hundred dollars worth of adver
tising secured. The new cover design also did much toward the general success
of the publication,

Grandma—Yes, dear, that is the diary | kept during my four years at

Pe Ann—The Christmas Plays were on December 20th, weren't they ?
Grandma—Yes, and we were pretty proud to be able to have two members

THE DIVINE PRESENCE IN NATURE AND IN THE SOUL
Since God represents all beauty, He finds a means of expression in nature
which is His gift to mankind. Thus, he who recognizes beauty in nature,

created into beauty of soul.
Even the humblest of men ca ssess a beautiful soul if he has. sufficient
insight into nature, His apprec y him to the point

HOMEWORK
Do you like homework ?
Well, neither do I,
And I say to myself
With a long, drawn sigh
“How much better that bool
Would look on a shelf!
What fun if some good-natured elf
Would read and write and figure for me!
Then all my evening would be free
To listen to the radio or read a good book,
Or curl myself up in a comfortable nook.”
But [ find I am dreaming.
That elf has not come.
So T'll get to work and get it all done.

A SAILOR’S THOUGHTS
Oh, the sailor's life is the life for me,
With the stiff br
And the canvas’ white stretch
And the masts’ king song
That come to me as I’m sailing along;
And the swirling white foam
And the flying white s
And the far-reaching comber that snatches away
Anything that’s been left to clutter the deck,
And it soaks you completely from your heels to your neck ;
But the nothing quite like the wild life at sea;
So the sailor's life is the life for me.

IF I WERE RICH
In summer, when the days are hot,
And the skies are very blue,
I love to lie under one big tree
And dream of the things I’d do,
If I were rich.
I'd travel all over the world
In great big boats and trains;
I'd go to Europe, and Asia, and Africa
Where the lions’ have shaggy manes,
Tf I were rich. Patty Gibson—7th Grade

THE TINKERS
We are the Tinkers of Ireland
Have you any pots to mend?
Some people use their brains to think
While we use our hands to tink.
We live like gypsies all day long
We sing Irish folk tales in our song.
In this manner we earn our bread
And seldom have to use our head.
We're always on the move, I said,
Living in cabin, tent or shed.
We never have time to read a book;
Our book is the wandering, babbling brook.

An’ said, “Now listen here,
Tf you will do just what I say,
I'll make you chief, m’ dear.”
“Tomorrow night, while Dunk’s asleep.
Jus, sneak up to his bed,
An’ stab him in de back, an’ you
Will be de chief instead.”

Dat he would be de chief.
He'd take Snips for a one-way ride.
By gosh! he'd kill de tief!
One day while standing on de street,
A car behind him purred;
A shot rang out, an’ now Macbet’

THE OLD NAME GAG
One day while standing on the street,
And waiting for a trolley,
I saw a girl awaiting too,
And she was nice, by golly.
Right then and there I told myself,
That meet her T sure would,
I'd introduce myself and try
To date her if I could.
I tried and tried but darned if I
Could think of something new,
But ’twas all right because I thought
The old name gag would do.
I said, “You look like Helen White.”
On me she turned her back,
“T know, but I don’t give a damm
’Cause I look worse in black.”
Oh boy
Was my face red?
