"All the world's a stage and all
the men and women merely players.
They have their exits and their entrances. And one man in his time
plays many parts. His acts being
seven ages."
As commencement draws near, a
realization is thrust upon us. The
curtains are about to be drawn upon a great scene in the drama of
student life. Any great scene involves a crisis—an important turning point.
Success or failure lios
close at hand. Past events give
augury of success.
Each player
must make her bow, but for effectiveness in the future acts, each
player must "labor good on good to
fix" and take her cue to high success. A happy denoument will be
assured.

The Seniors' Farewell
Four years ago we entered the
walls of this grand old institution,
a group of happy laughing girls.
Little dd we dream of the things
that were to take place during one
•3f four years stay here. Now at
the end of that tme we are looking
back over those days, finding in
the recollection of them a joy that
is touched with wistfulness, for now
we realize as never before that they
have passed all too swiftly, and that
soon there will remain only mem•ories. But as we walk these cherished paths for the last time, new
■visions, new ideals, are coming before us, leaving an indelible imipression of the school, and all . it
stands for, on our hearts.
It is useless to try to express for
the group, or for any individual,
the deep appreciation that we feel
towards all those connected with
school. Under the care and guidance of our president and the faculty we -have learned many of life's
lessons.
We thank you for the
kind help and good advice you have
given us, but most of all for the
inspiration to press on, not only in
the academic fields, but toward that
ideal of all that is best that you
have imparted. The facts we may
forget, but never the examples of
right you set for us.
Schoolmates, we have learned to
love you in these days we've spent
together. Carry on the work, profit
by our mistakes, and ever remember that we carry with us fondest
memories of you.
And now how fully do we realize
the meaning of these words, words
that only in a small way express
our feelings as we bid our Alma
Mater farewell.
"There is a word, of grief the
sounding token;
There is a word beguiled with bright
tears,
The saddest word fond lips have
ever spoken;
A little word that breaks the chain
of years;
Its utterance must ever bring
emotion,
The memories it crystals cannot die,
'Tis known in every land, on every
ocean—
'Tis called "Good-bye."

The Ideal Student
Facing Forward

NELLIE SUE BAILEY,
Poet-Librarian of L.
C. Is Lineal Descendant of Cavalier Poet
By Helen Harriet Sails
Miss Caroline Fall Benson, a native of LaGrange, Georgia, and for
nine years the librarian of LaGrange College, has recently been
informed by a relative in Virginia
that she is a lineal descendant of
the English poet, Richard Lovelace,
the greatest of the famous group of
Cavalier lyricists of the earlier
seventeenth century. Lovelace is
best remembered for his lines, "To
Lucasta On Going to the Wars":
"I could not love thee, dear so much
Loved I not Honor more";
and for his verses "To Alfchea from
Prison":
"Stone walls do not a prison make,
Nor iron bars a cage."
Miss Benson is the only child of
Eustace Conway anl Lucie Fauntieroy (Todd) Benson. Her father
was a native of Montgomery, AlabamaHer maternal great-grandfather, John Hall Todd, was a cousin of Lyman Hall; a grandson of
Captain Harry Todd of the American Revolution; and a descendant
of the Fauntleroys of Virginia,
through whom the line is traced
jack to Richard Lovelace.
Child of the; Chattahoochee coun_
i y, the land of mocking-birds and
sinter-blooming
jonquils,
and
daughter of the City of Elms and
Roses, Carrie Fall Benson early
jegan to chant her rapturous love
of beauty. iHer first poems were
jrinted in newspapers and in The
/oice, a magazine of verse publishd in Cleveland, Ohio. Within the
jast year she has had poems accepted by Dr. W. F. Melton and issued
rom the Banner Press, Emory UniI'ersty; Bozart and Contemporary
/erse, edited by Dr. Thornwell Jacobs, Oglethorpe University; The
Harp, edited by Eunice Wallace
ind published in Larned, Kansas;
Che Blue Moon, edited by Ben M.
Smith and published in Albion,
Michigan; and The Kaleidoscope,
published in Dallas, Texas.

Carrie Fall Benson audiences two years ago.
The simple words, "Back of the
flour mill," reiterate that a perfect
structure is built upon a substantial foundation. Therefore, the ideal
student is' the outgrowth of a student who imbibes knowledge and
develops her character nobly.
A
strong, healthy body and a keen,
expanding mind are the essentials
of a scholar. To these add a heart
avid for truth anti beauty.
The
coordination of a vigorous body,
alert mind, and clean heart are necessary to the ideal student.
Indeed, before perfection is realized,
all elements must blend.
What does the term—ideal student—denote.
The ideal student
has, primarily, a resolute plan for
her life. Zealously she labors to
fulfill this purpose. Toward what
does she direct her efforts? Realizmg her imperfections and needs,
she pursues knowledge strenuously.
Moreover, she knows that " unbridled passion mars the beauty of
a life." Accordingly, she severely
disciplines her moral nature by the
daily practice of self-control. Th-i
ideal student comes to college with
a determined purpose; namely, "to
make the most of herself in order
to fill her place happily and usefully."
To paraphrase the words of the
wisest of counsellors—as a student

in the summer of 1925. At a meeting last September of the Poetry
Forum of the Atlanta Writers Club,
Miss Benson read several of her
poems, and Mrs. Elmina Wade, of
LaGrange, a graduate in expression
of LaGrange College, read "The
Fiddlin' Feller" to a most responive audience.
A member of the Poetry Society
of Georgia and of the Atlanta Writers' Club, Miss Benson has recently received an invitation to join the
Atlanta Branch of the National
League of American Pen-"Women.

Miss

ancestors a Shakespeare, a Goethe,

creative talents interfere with her

her library up to its standard as

Her passionate sympathies,

into the empyrean where love and

GARDEN VISIT
PAGEANTRY
(From The Kaleidoscope)
Still they pass along the woodland
ways,
The young king, Arthur, with the
sunlight on his hair;
The glittering knights, the pale lake
ladies, proud
And coldly fair:
Besides the streams the timid
Syrinx flees;
Pan follows her in headlong, hopeless chase:
Narcissus lingers by the forest pools,
Enraptured with the white rose of
his face.
Eternally
the pageant
passes,
bright
Beneath the deep shade of the
greenwood trees;
Plume and panoply, and silver
bugle-notes,
'T is such as these
Our hearts must hold, lest life be
come too gray;
Stand, wide-eyed dreamer in the
wood .... they pass!
No swinging branches rustle in their
train,
And all their marching stirs no
blade of grass.

DARK FLIGHT
(From The Harp)
The ageless miracle of sprng's returning;
Across the farm had looked on
beauty burning
In every bush and tree, in young
leaves' sheen:
Stormy-hearted, arrogant of mien,
He plowed the fields, insensate
furrows spurning,
Each dull day to a duller morrow
turning,
Brief vistas of relinquished dreams
between.
He would not face the years of
numbing toil,
So one day in the orchard, ringed
about
With beauty of the trees, the sky,
the soil,
Baffled, he took the dark and
blind way out;
He lay, unlovely, on the earth that
bore him . . .
The wind blew, apple blossoms
drifted o'er him.

Where trellised roses climbed and

Where peonies bloomed on prideful

And where an artful fountain

President and Mrs. W. E. Thompson entertained the Senior Class at
a dinner party Wednesday evening,
May 11th.
The long table was beautifully
decorated in the class colors, gold
and white. The central floral decoration was a large crystal of golden marigolds and smaller bowls of
daisies were placed at intervals on
the table. Tall tapers shed a soft
glow over the scene.
Each guest's place was marked
by a tiny diploma. These diplomas
held prophecies of the activties of
the class members ten years hence.
After curiosity had reached its
height they were opened and read
aloud. Each one painted a rosy
future.
An informal program of stories,
songs, and piano selections was
given, featuring some of the more
talented members of the classThese were followed by an account
of the gossip carried in The Scandaltown Tatler for June, 1933. Some
of this counteracted the effect of
the prophecies, just for a minute,
but only that long.

Feted With Shower
Misses Nell Cole and Elizabeth
Merritt, members of the senior class

to each handkerchief was a small
novelty umbrella bearing the name
of the giver.
Punch was served by Misses Thelma Dunbar and Rebecca Hart and
sandwiches and wafers were served
during the afternoon.
As the honor guests entered the
room Miss Catherine Cline played
the wedding march from Lohengrin
and Miss Moseley sang, "At Dawning."
Another feature of the afternoon
was the writing of good wishes in
small autograph books and on the
clothes pins from the line.
The guests were the members of
the senior class on the hill.
Of cordial interest to a host of
friends is the announcement made
by Mr. and Mrs. Early LaFayette

Thursday afternoon, May 12th,
at 3:30 the members of the Art
Clubs started on a merry jaunt to
Miss Carmel Glass' country home.
When they reached their destination they found a cheery fire burning in a barbecue pit near a bubbling spring. A boat on the lake
was the favorite sport until the cry
"soup's on" was heard.
Roasted
seiners, iced tea, and fruit in
abundance were found placed temptingly on a picnic table.
A leisurely stroll n the wood and
on horseback, then the return home
in the waning twilight.
Those members of the Art Club
enjoying this delightful picnic were:
Emily Sewell, Lucille Miller, Caroline McNiel, Helen Copelan, Tommy
Dunbar, Virginia Moseley, Miss
'Catherine Wilson, and Miss Carmel
Glass, and Natelle Carley and Mildred Goldstein.

shower in honor of Dr. Katherine
Wilson, bride-elect, on Saturday,
April 23. As the guests entered,
they were each assigned a kitchen
to hem and to embellish with an
original design. A prize w-as offered for the best piece of work.
Considerable originality was manifested by the guests, with the result that some astonishing designs
appeared on the towels. Two bore
Latin mottoes; another, a butterfly;
another a nice, plump kitty; another, a large eighth note; and another unusually original one displayed a gold-tasseled academic cap
obscured by cobwebs.
After the towels had been finished, a beautiful white wedding cake
topped by a bride and groom under
a bell, was brought out, and the
honoree was asked to cut it.
The
cake was served with delicious ice
cream.
A prize in the form of a dainty
tape measure was awarded Miss
Walker, who thereupon presented
it to the honoree. Those present
were: Misses
Wilkin,
Walker,
Stewart, Reid, Singer, Shepard and
Wilson.

the College parlors on Monday
evening, April 11, in honor of Dr.

As the guests entered they were
greeted by the officers of the clubs.
Miss Pauline Bond than sang "All
For You," and "The Sweetest
Story Ever Told." Throughout the
evening wedding music was played
on the piano by Miss Aline White
and Miss Mary Johnson.
The gifts for Dr. Wilson
were
presented by Miss Nell Cole, president of the Latin Club, and Miss
Emily Sewell, president of the Art
Club. The gifts were an urn and
a setter dog door step. Miss Dorothy Morton read a poem that she
had written about the urn, a copy
of the classical amphora found in
Pompeii. Dr. Wilson thanked the
club members in a delightful talk.

A finshed performance showing
careful and expert training was presented Friday evening, by the college glee club in the college auditorium, directed by Miss Elizabeth Wilkin.
"A'Gorden of Song" was the
name of the performance which was
staged n a setting of rose covered
trelisses with lighting given by colored lanterns overhead. The members of the glee club were costumed
in afternoon dresses of attractve
models in the pastel shades. When
the curtain parted, they were grouped in an informan manner, some
seated and others standing.
The first collecton of numbers included "The Bells of St. Mary's"
"At Twilght," "To You," and "The
World is Waiting for the Sunrise."
The ensemble work of the club was
especially good, as there was close
harmony among the different parts
and a sympathetic understanding.
Particularly lovely were the cadences in several numbers.
• The second group included "Slumber Sea," "The River," and the
familiar "Serenade," of Schubert
which was pleasingly rendered.
The third part of the program
was a piano solo, "Norwegian Bridal
Procession," which was rendered by
Miss Aline White and was enthusiastically received.
Following the brief intermission,
the club presented a scene from the
light opera, "The Mikado," by Gilbert, and Sullivan in which the
three little maids joyously celebratsd the approaching marriage of Yum
Yum to Nank-i-Poo, interrupted by
the arrival of Katisha, a woman of
noble birth, but few looks, who was
looking for her vanished fiancee
who was none other than Nank-iPoo. Miss Virginia Moseley as Yum
Yum, was delightful and Miss Paulne Bond as Katisha, won hearty
applause. The members of the club
were gowned as Japanese girls in
gaily colored kimonas.
The final group of numbers included "My Love Dwelt in a North..
em Land," "Beauteous Morn." z:nd
"The Green Cathedral." An especially attractive number was "The
Bear Song" wheh was given as an
encore.
The officers of the club are :Miss
Aline White, president; Miss Pauline Bond, vice-president; Miss Ruth
Campbell, secretary; Mis Alleyn
Boyle, treasurer. The members are
Misses Nellie and Lucy Barrett;

Miss Moon read the play, "The

the romance and mystery of the an_

modern language, and its wit, satire
and historical significance made it
one of the most outstanding of the

The display will be shown in the

new furnishings added and is now
one of the most attractive an popular places on the campus.
The China Studio has also been

The Ideal Student
(Continued from paga 2)
thinketh in her heart, so is she.
The attitude of a student rules
her being. In college there are attitudes toward work, student government, college mates, faculty, and
the activity of the college.
The ideal student comprehends
the importance of the daily performance of cumbersome tasks. Earn_
estly, enthusiastically she masters
her work. Impelled by the responsibility of work, the ideal student
seeks to gain practical and cultural
learning.
The supreme honor of the ideal
student is manifested in cooperation
with student government. She obeys
its laws and precepts; she influences
weaker girls to do the right things;
she whole-heartedly lends her spirit
to its best interests.
Respect and even reverence for
human personality characterizes ths
ideal student. To her college mates
she is 'gracous, sincere, and unselfish; to the faculty she is respectful,
obedient, and considerate. Finally,
love rules her social relationships.
We agree that man is a vassal to
habit. Earnestly the ideal student
practices that which strengthens the
will. She forms the habit of readiness—readiness to cooperate, readiness to serve, readiness to act.
Moreover she is acustomed to persist steadfastly until a given task is
perfectly performed.
Finally, "are not ideals the things
in life most real, for they determine
action?"
The ideal student has.
necessarily, a sublime purpose.
Her purpose is broad and expansive. She strives for a well-rounded
personality.
To her this signifies
the perfection of body, mind, heart,
and soul.
At one time paleness was associated with virtue. Today in a presumably wiser age, we recognize the
body as the "basis of life." Clean
vision, keen insight, and true feeling depend upon conditions of the
body. There must be teamwork between the mind and body. Therefore, the ideal student, conscious
.that bodily weakness maims every
higher function, protects her body.
She is temperate, vigorous, athletic,
and healthy. Thereby she keeps fit
to challenge bravely the romantic
combats of life.

The Ideal Student
(c"on't. from col. 1; this page)
Varied experiences and increased
knowledge expand the horizon of
the deal. Her heart is attuned to
the beautiful; her spirit transforms
the sordid into the lovely; her will
accords with that of the Creator.
The ideal student has a "unity of
character."
She is active—physically, mentally, morally, spiritually.
Before there is an ideal student,
there is perfection in the inmost
parts.
The ideal student has a ?onse of
proportion. She knows the relative
values of things. The wrong emphasis distorts a beautiful life. The
ideal student perfects every factor,
but puts heart and soul nto the
pristine virtut-s — truth, rlevotion,
sincerity, and purity.
The ideal student is an ideal
111111
daughter, an ideal friend, an ideal
scholar, an ideal Christian.
She
has "enough learning to be humble;
enough friendshp to have a heart
warm and large; enough culture to
learn the art of simplicity; enough
wisdom to keep temperate in wealth
and sweet in poverty."
oOo
Better a dull man I can trust
than a bright man I'm not sure of.

The ingenuity of the human mind
for finding reasons to postpone or
delay action is the most powerful
factor in modern politics.—Sir Oswald Mosely.
