Even more vivid was his recollection of the persistent tears which he had shed to be allowed to stay at home." ? Stephens I was reminded of that little passage by my small nephew. He spent the last part of his summer vacation, wnen timo began to hang heavy on his hands, look ing torward to the first day of school When I saw him the other day and asked how he liked school he said unen thusiastically. "All right." and then he added with new life in his tone. "Say do you know it's only three weeks to the Christmas vacation." At Recess Tim ft. I One day last year 1 happened to be j passing a school house at recess time. , The bell rang, the children scampered I indoors ? that is, all but two. These j two. who were evidently too young for ? school, stood gazing ..wistfully after the ? others. They turned dejectedly away. I There wasn't a child they wouldn't have , changed places with and there probably j wasn t a child ' who wouldn't have chxnsjed places with theni. I W hat tfueer. restless, enger. unsatla ; tied little creatures children are. And what queer, restless, eager, nn | satisfied big creatures grown-ups are! Life's just one looking forward after another, except when It's looking back I ward. - , . At five we are looking forward, to go . ing to school, at six we are looking for 1 Tirtl to. nf'xt vacation. At twelve j the feminine contingent is impatient for ( the time when it can put Its hair up (or was until Mary Hckford appeared i and I the male to lonK pants, and' both feel that all their troubles will be over when I they g?-t into high school. j A t sixteen col lege begins to stand for I -perfect happiness. And a little later we ! 'now can you doubt I am a woman) look forward to maarriag* as the state where we will at last *tind what we have al ! ways been restlessly seeking for. j W? Piad We Can Say "Thirty Years ! Ago." ' And so it go*s from one stage to an other until finally we begin to look back ward and discover ivlth surprise that wo Cvn say "Thirty years ago." and that we begin to have* as manv memo , ries as anticipations. It simply shows, doesn't It. how much of life -is of the mind rather than of the body. The present is th" onlv actuality* , to the body, the past and futura ari> of j the mind. And yet we live more in them | than In the present. I PROGRAM WILL BE WHOLLY THE PRODUCTION OF CLUB MEMBERS. Lin&iy Dance Last Evening Added ] Interest .to Week's Activities ?
