As we go forth from our years at college there will be no
doubt, deep in the secret part of us, a desire to make some great
and lasting impression on our little world, to do some magnificent
thing, some deed electric with force and achievement, some feat
startling in its power and influence—and thus it should be, else
,why all the training, the inspiratiofi, the splendid opportunity, if
we forget it' in the placid contentment of commonplace-existence
after college. On this we think there is perfect agreement,, but
it is to be wondered if amid the dazzling dreams of the future,
as we stand with swelling hearts, eager, longing to be at work,
if we remember the importance of the little deeds in life. What
part of our hearts belong to them? Are we going to let them
take care of themselves, merely bask in the light of our greater
achievement, receive only the paler gleams of inspiration? Is
that to be our purpose, or worse still, if failure .comes, if these
glorious deeds remain unperfected shall w& become embittered
and forget them utterly? Those little smiles,\those little words
of cheer and sympathy—how much they haVa meant to us as
we struggled along. How much brighterHtt^M^h^ye^ made the
days for us.
So let us not forget to pass them on in all the years to
come, years in which we/may find that the big worfa has little
place for our magnificerftllreams, but needsWid will accept, ohj
so gladly, our little deeds of kindnesses, the little rays of beauty
and of love that we may spread about us. Let us show this old
world that college has prepareft-us for life in its fullest complete-
ness, has taught us to meet the greatest success with the same
courage and' strength as the bitterest failure, and what is more,
has taught us the beauty and the value of the little things and
the harmony and peace we may create by their remembrance.
SCIENCE DEPARTMENT RE-
CEIVES GIFT.
The Science Department of T.
W. C. is very fortunate in having
among its friends such a person as
Hon. Fritz G. Lanham, United States
respesentative from this district.
Through the efforts of Hon. Lan-
ham, we have been able to secure
valuable contributions to our science
library and museum. For the li-
brary we have received over two
hundred government bulletins, mono-
graphs, professional papers and re-
ports of great value and are fur
ther assured of receiving over nine
hundred other select publications of
the same character covering the sub-
jects of Botany, Agriculture, Zoolo-
gy, Physics, henvistry, Geology, Pa-
lentology, Anthropology and Archae-
ology. The museum has received
from the National Museum of the
Smithsonian Institute, an excellent
collection consis.ing of ninety dif-
ferent species of fish, collected from
all parts of the world, one hundred
mvlecules of equal interest, forty-
six fossils of American and foreign
plants and animals, and eiglity-five
specimens of minerals, including
many rare minerals.
These gifts are invaluable addi-
tions to our Science Department, and
we have hopes of even better addi
tions in th$ future.
Let us hope that thWs may elicit
liom other friends bequests of a
substantial nature, such for instance
as a complete- wireless equipment, a
six-inch telescope, or even five hun-
drd dollars ($500.00) for science
books.
MISS STAPLETON TALKS TO THE
KOROS.
PRESS CLUB ENTERTAINED.
The Press Club of T. VV. C. was
entertained on Friday evening, April
22, at the lovely home of Miss Edna
Matthews oh Avenue G. This was
the regular meeting and busines and
pleasure were • happily ..combincid.
Misses Matthews, Culver, Cantrell,.
Moore and Bolen, the delegates to
T. I. P. A., at Baylor, made their
reports upon the convention. The
local Press Club is very much
pleased with the enlarged policy of
T. I. P. A. and hopes to govern
its own policies accordingly. Nu-
merous plans for next year were
discussed, and the organization is
quite enthusiastic over prospects.
At the conclusion of the business
hour delicious strawberry shortcake
was served by the hostess, assisted
by Miss Cantrell.
Martha: "Aren't these little cats
fat?"
Gettys: "They surely are—I won-
der who feeds?"
Little Herbert who lived in the
city, and who knew more about cars
than cats was visiting his auntie in
the country. One afternoon he found
the cat asleep on the window sill, and
purring very rhythnically—calling to
the aunt in a very excited tone he
said: "Auntie, come quickly, the cat
has gone to sleep and left his engine
running."
Those, who were fortunate enough
to be present at the regular meeting
of the Korosophian literary society
on April 20th, heard not only the
above joke but others told in the
facinaiing manner in which our dean
of women does everything not all of
her talk was light and humorous;
through it all here ran a vein of ser-
iousness. •
Among the serious thoughts which
she left with the Koros, the ones re-
ferring to culture perhaps will be
remembered longest. She says the
young children should be started early
in the training of cuture. To se-
cure a cultured nation the training
lies in those who control the destiny
of the children of that nation. Cul-
ture is that quality which makes one
lit to live with othei's. As for the
girl of today she hopes to be able
to say, in the future, that the mod-
ern girl has developed into an ad-
mirable .character.
All who heard Miss Stapleton's
talk enjoyed it very muclu The
members of the Korosophian society
are always delighted to have her
visit them, and extend a hearty in-
vitation te her for the future.

The Fish started their two day
celebration by raising their banner
at three o'clock Tuesday afternoon—
Jupiter Pluvius had taken pains that
the Fish might feel perfectly at
home, and they refused to be daunted
by the frequent showers that fell.

beautifully decorated for the occasion,
in green and white, \yasopened to
the freshmen for their banquat. Miss

The evening was celebrated by a
weiner roast at the campus.

what appeared to be one of the
plagues of. Egypt, but on careful
investigation, it was discovered that
the excitement was only the crickets
which followed each freshman through
the day "On the Wings of Song."
At chapel the class of '25 present
ed the school with six urns with
which to beautify the entrance to the
main building and plant the first

Tribute to Miss Onderdonk.
School is drawing to a close, and
with it, our comradeship with our
Sponsor. To us, it has seemed a
short while that we have known her,
and at the same time, we feel a
strong bond of love and understand-
ing has grown. In our efforts to
give her an idea of our appreciation,
we seem all too helpless.
She has been faithful to us when
we faltered or fussed, when we were
gay or unhappy, and thru it all, we
hae realized that it takes a great
deal more than most people have, to
be a Class Sponsor.
Many times we haven't been kind,
and s'efmetimes we have done things
which would have called down the
wrath of a dozen gods, but she has
never given us'cause to believe that
there aren't a few angelic disposi-
tions on this earth.
This isn't flattery. It is a true
attempt to express our love for you,
Miss Onderdonk. For your patience
thru the weeks leading up to today,
for your oxnginality, wit, and sensi-
ble management, we are thankful.
We haven't said what lots of peo-
ple say about their Sponsors, because
when we consider them all, everyone
knows you have the rest beat a mile.
Your class loves you, and admires
you, and any day that comes, when
you may need help, if ours is of any
use, there are one hundred and thirty-
three heads, hearts and bodies at
your service, in return for a year of
faithful care.
YOUR CLASS OF '25.
Thespian Notes.
Tuesday night, May 2, some mem-
bers of the Thespian club gave a
one-act play, Lady Gregory's
"Spreading the News," in the Irish
dialect and melody. Poor girl! They
had to work faithfully in order to
train their tongues to twist like Pat
and Mike's and the rest of the
O'Irish family, but the play was
staged very effectively and artis-
tically.
Saturday afternoon, April 29, the
Thespian club presented the Juniors
inu& Browning recital at the Ex-
pression studio. The following pro-
gram was given.
"The Last Ride."—Mary Terry.
• ^Prospice," and "Evelyn Hope."—
Katheryn Erwin.
"The Tale."—Anna Maud Sweet.
"Wanting is What"; "Memorabi-
lia"; "Lost Leader."—Lois Martin.
"Appearances"; "In a Year."—
Josephine Reigle.

MOCK FACULTY MEETING.
The members of the Korosgphian
Literary socity enjoyed a very inter-
esting though quite unusual program,
Tuesday, April 13th in the form of
a mock faculty meeting. Dean Jen-
nings represented by Madaliene
Schindler was the fii'st member, of
the faculty and with that ever pa
tient look .which is so characteristic
of him, sat down to wait for the
others. Miss Wilson and Miss Davr^j
represented by Melba Gr.eenman, and
Annieola Speer Were we"ne»t, to ar-
rive. Mr. Howard,—Alice Cook
came in rather late; when he was
asked why he was so late, said that
he had been fishing and just couldn't
get back any sooner. Lucile Booth
very effectively represented Miss
Stapleton, even to the "Atlantic
Monthly." Gladys Vernon and Ruth
Williamson as Miss Onderdonk, and
Miss Coghill sauntered very deliber-
ately with the report that Dr. Mar-
tin would not be present because he
was at home teaching some girls a
new recipe for making fudge.
Then the meeting proper started
with all of the difficulties and prob-
lems of the different teachers to be
solved—and don't breathe it to a
soul but some rather serious mis-
demeanors concerning the teachers
themselves were disclosed, to the
utter amazement and consternation
of those present. For instance, men-
tion was of the fact that Mr. How-
ard bought his new car soon after
twenty-seven dollars disappeared from
Dan Waggoner. We haven't yet de-
cided whether the guilty look, and
denial means guilty or not guilty.
Yes—and Miss Stapleton has re-
cently been the recipient of roses,
and she tried to keep it a secret.
And Miss Millsapps is working on
a - but then it isn't fair
to tell what goes on in an official
meeting even though we were per-
mitted a peep.

The Sophomores completed their
week of joy with an "Open House,"
Saturday night.
They traveled aboard a ship for
this entertainment. The girls were
sailors, wearing black 'and white
suits, carrying out the color scheme.
While on deck they played games.
After growing tired of this, the
thrilling stories of Mr. Aldredge
were enjoyed very much by his
listeners. At many intervals ii) the
process of the story he would have
his audience so interested and ex-
cited that they gave expression to
their feelings by screams. Then
came the hour for refreshments, and
all went to the bar room, and were
served with soda pop and ice cream
sandwiches. The decorations were
so complete here that, in their imagi-
nation they could feel the waves
rocking the ship as they traveled
along the journey. The time for
departure came too soon for the
jolly band, but all left with a smile
and wished that every night could
be the launching of a similar cruise.
o
CHURCH AND SUNDAY SCHOOL.
Just to show that they were well
rounded sports, the Sophomores
finished up the glorious week by at-
tending Sunday School and church
in a body. Space was appropriately
reserved and decorated in black and
white. Beautiful roses adorned the
front of the church and everyone was
well rewarded by the beautiful and
inspiring sermon.
o
TROLLY RIDE.
Pep! Did you say? Those Sophs
and Seniors gave Fort Worth a good
idea of what real pep was. As a
part of the best class week in T. W.
C. the Sister classes enjoyed a trol-
ly ride last Thursday night.
T. C. U. North Main, Hemphill,
Houston and Main were visited by
the merry group. Yells and songs
never ceased.
As it is characteristic of all
Sophs and Seniors, a feast of ice
cream cones, pop and peanuts was
thoroughly enjoyed by the ravenous
members of the: "Bull dog" class.
It's wise to know a little more
than you let people think you know.
