THE RIVER
Of rivers I have seen a lot, the Hud-
son, Thames, and Hottentot, in every
place and clime; they're all renowned
for happenings, ragattas, races, other
things, their fame is told in rhyfne.
The local river doesn't rate, its banks
were put too close by fate to hold a
great event; but cozy nooks and
shady slores are lovely, lurid, luring,
lores for those on pleasure bent.
Of young men's fancies in the
spring, love's not the most unusual
thing, that's what the poets say; but
light is hostile to romance and any
sentimental trance works better night
than day. Already at the twilight
stage begins the mooning pilgrimage
across the double bridge; with blan-
ket decking each right arm, and on
the left a maid of charm, they tread'
the narrow ridge.
Canoes float calmly in the night,
the poet's friend and love's delight,
it's nearing eight o'clock; the girl
gets in and rocks the boat, the hero
sheds his cap and coat, and shoves
off from the dock.
The music of the paddle plash, the
suction 'neath a bending lash, sense
peace and harmony;, while o'er the
gleaming, rippling shafts the sooth-
ing air of evenings wafts, a distant
melody.
Ah this is true romance my friends,
when every touch of evening lends
its beauty to the scene; when under-
neath the luiar gaze hard outlines'
fade into a haze, and all the world's
serene.
Then does the Huron 'spite its mud
look marvelous as any flood from
China to Peru; what care they for a
larger whirl, they have the night, the
moon, the girl, the water, their canoe.

Second Thoughts
.On Junior Girls'
Seventeenth Play
"Selina Sue" Gone, But Will be Re-
membered Because of Fascinat-I
ing Musical Qualities
(By Elizabeth Vickery)
Another Junior Girls' play, "Selina
Sue," passedinto the great beyond
d curing the last week leaving behind,
to mourn its passing, many friends,
within the depths of whose memories
it will be cherished throughout the
ages as an immortal inspiration.
This seventeenth annual event was
characterized by rites more fitting to
a celebration than to a funeral occa-
sion. Music and dancing such as could
be featured at a J-hop took the. place,
of the usual weeping and wailing. The'
deceased was honored by the presence
of hundreds of people as she lay in
state two nights and one afternoon.
Varied-Was Showv
As chief mourners the 22 members
of the family were assisted by ap-
proximately 100 friends from all parts
of the globe. Notable among these
true and sympathetic friends of the'
bereaved were the old colored ser-
vants of the family, the chorus girls
so late indebted to the bemoaned, her
classmates from the university, a
group of Kentucky girls, some oriental'
acquaintances, and even four ordinary'
delivery men. who seemed clamorpus'
to pay their last respects.
Those in, attendance at the funeral'
noticed great emotion on the part ofI
the whole family, but it is said thatI
the young lovers who had come to'
know the deceased so well are particu-
larly deserving of the heart-felt solici-'
tations of the general public.r
The bier itself was but fitting for
such a state occurrence. By an altar
decked in only the best and finest, the
life of the late benefactress was sym-
bolized. Loving tributes in the form
of beautiful floral offerings from her
many admirers were displayed in the
foreground, following each public re-
view.
Following the request of the de-
ceased and her guardians, only her
girl friends were allowed to view the
remains. Her great popularity was
easily perceived from the fact that so
