HAIL to the college of Flora Macdonald, Bail to her colors of heaven's own hue, White of the clear shining star of the morning, Blue of the mountains so faithful and true.
Honor the Blue and White,
Ever they stand for right,
Wave they forever our college above.

Swell in a chorus strong:
Flora Macdonald, the College we love.
Praise we the name of our dear Alma Mater, To truth and beauty she shows us the way. Deeply enshrined in the hearts of her daughters, Flora Macdonald forever will stay.
Honor the Blue and White,

Wave they forever our college above.
Hear now our loyal song
Swell in a chorus strong :

"Recent Excavations"
BA< 'K in the days of nineteen-twenty-two, sixty-five youthful maidens ( including the narrator of this tale) became inspired with the renowed Spirit of '.'6.
We had overheard much "diplomatic" talk and heard of some extremely valuable parchments which were, as yet, undiscovered. Why should not we go in search of them ? The future lay before us and tho' it was a dim, unknown future, that good ole Spirit of '26 surged within each heart and said, "Push on. While we live let us live well." We had but one life to live so our decision was finally reached and we banded together with firm intentions of doing worthwhile "excavating."
Early in the fall of that same year we started out in the good ship "F. M. < '." At first the journey was rather rough (and semingly a rather endless undertaking) but there wasn't much to fear, in spit of these facts, for we had chosen for our pilot a person whose character was as strong as her name — Steele — and we knew the advice and guidance of our leader would protect us from drifting to "undesirable shores."
Xot many months passed before we found ourselves in the midst of the "Sahara Desert," and soon we saw before us — the Pyramids. Can you imagine our astonish- ment to discover that cones (yes — "I scream.") were not unknown in that country 1 1
Realizing that time was fleeting we spent no longer than was necessary there but, remembering our mission, we pushed on still further. To some of us the journey was so very interesting that it seemed no time had passed until the Fall of 1923 was upon us. Evidently all in our number had'nt thought so, for about half of them became lost, strayed or stolen somewhere. Anyway, they did'nt come back and we missed them dreadfully but could'nt allow our hopes to drop. Those parch- ments. We musl find them.
It must lie remembered that we took various paths when we landed but we were all in search of the same treasure. We formed ourselves — for the sake of con- venience— into three divisions. First, "A. B.," sei 1. "B. S. II. K.." and, third,
"B. M." (Having been a member of group 1, I can only testify to its hardships but I feel safe in saying that the others had equally as difficult problems on their tours.
We. alas, poor things, wandered into the Land of Trig (you've surely heard of it) and bumpy? — Whew, the pathways were next to impassible for the logs, etc. If you, dear reader, have even been there you know what a time we had.
In the next year of our expeditions (1924) occured an event which brought sad- ness to our hearts — and almost disaster to our searching party — when our noble guide was called away from us. But, pretty soon, peace and calm once more reigned in our midst when Mrs. Glenn took such competent command of us (is'nt
i^:>^ag
K/Jy-OIl.
there peacefulness and quiet in her name?) All this time myriads of treasures were constantly being unearthed by our undaunted party and the spring of that year (l!J2-t-25) to be exaet as to date, I believe it was the day following Easter Sunday, we discovered a large number of the queerest beings you ever saw. They were called "men," but we had'nt seen any before. If we ever had it had been so long ago we had quite forgotten about them.
The next year however was the memorable year in our lives — for it was then (1926) that we reached our long sought for treasure. Our mission had not been in vain after all. As we review our journeyings we realize that we have failed to take possession of many valuable treasures which were really within our reach, some- times, "unecessary steps" to reach our goal. Any way our parchments were secured . . . and, can you believe it? When we discovered them there were "just enough to go round." Each of the twenty-three members of our party re- ceived one and, having acquired such valuable proofs of our work we find that
"Sad memories till our hearts
As time shall come to part,
Life calls us to our work,
Let not a member shirk;
We'll love, and lift, and live
The world our best to give
For back of us stands firm and true,
The spirit of our CLASS."
Sarah Frances Marshall, Class Historian.

Senior Class Prophecy
IT is well, perhaps, to admit at the outset that there is nothing psychic in our cosmos. Why I am honored with this venerable office is beyond my ken, for in all my life ouija boards have failed to move, tea leaves have revealed only meaning- less signs, and tables have refused to budge if I was so much as in the room.
Not knowing a thing, however, it is at least a commendable thing to know when' yon can find it out. Consequently twelve o'eloek New Year's Night found me shivering in front of the College. As the last stroke sounded, I hurried down the steps and on to the fountain.
"Sclophus," said I (to the uninitiated Sclophus is that merry, undaunted youth who from time immemorial has dwelt in our fountain) "Sclophus," I said. "I am in a pickle."
The youth gave no sign that he knew I was there, so courageously, I continued.
"Sclophus — the fate and future of twenty-three young maiden has been placed in my hands" — (spoken in pleading tones that would have melted the heart of a stone). And indeed it did, for —
There was a sudden splash as the silver fish slid from his grasp, and Sclophus yawned, stretched his chubby arms, and cocked a business-like eye in my direction.
"Well," he snapped out, "Where's the list?"
"List," I stammered, somewhat taken back by the brusqueness of his manner and the abrupt question — "List? O, yes indeed — list, here it is," and I handed him my notel k and pencil.
Forthwith he ran his eye over the list of names, nodded once or twice in a most assured manner, and sat down on the edge of the fountain. And this is what he wrote.

A warning sound told me that one o'clock was about to strike. "Quick, Sclophus," I began —
But the words were scarce uttered when the hour did strike, Sclophus in nervous haste dropped the small notebook. I stooped to pick it up and turned to give it to him, but — all was still.
"O, Sclophus," I pleaded, "There's just one name left. Can't you ??"
But to no avail. Sclophus was as cold and unmoved as the fish he clasped so tenderly in his arms.
Therefore, gentle classmates, if any be discontented with this, the prophesy of your future lives, be thankful that you are not as I, who, alone of my class, am unwarned of the future; or go argue it out with Sclophus.

History of Junior Class
"We are the class of '27 You've heard so much about."
XI) alas! Who am I. that I should have had the he r thrust upon me of
recording the mighty deeds of valor of the Junior Class 1 0 Clio, thou fairest muse of history, 1 implore thee, come to my aid; bestow wisd and dis- cretion upon me that I may discern which of our many virtues and accomplish- ments, our trials and tribulations, to dwell upon, which to pass lightly over, and which alas, must go umnentioned. Bear in mind, gentle reader, that we are generally acclaimed to he "too shy to talk about many things we've done."
To hegin with the ancient history: On.- of the most outstanding and vividly remembered events of the fall of our Freshman year is the night when we heard that Flora Maedonald was to he made an "A" e. .liege and the grand celebration that followed. Our dust pans and sboetrees, to this g 1 day. wear startling testi- mony of our zeal and enthusiasm.
Another time that nobody will forget was College Hay; and didn't we get out- colors highest of all? And didn't all our songs — class pep, and college — receive honorable mention? To say nothing of the great fact that ever since no social function whatsoever has been complete without the singing of "Our College Friendship."
That same winter, many of our loyal members were laid low with mumps — others
who offered them pickles were also laid low.
Our powers on the athletic field were proved by our hard and victorious fight for the basketball championship.
Let us proceed with the mediaeval history: Ah. the joys of stunt night and per- secution of the Fresh, and bow blissfully strange not to he Freshmen ourselves. With how complacent an air did we remark. "Oh yes, I'm an old girl"? How gleefully did we recount to awe-inspired classmates that such and such a Fresh thought we were a Seuior.
But being a Sophomore soon proved to he a blessing not unmixed with havoc. For the woes of Sophomore English and Trig, etcetera, ad infinitum, followed
iff-five
stunt night and receptions. Memories of those Sophomore English essays will haunt us to our living day (douhtless Mrs. Sanderson is afflicted in a similar way). We followed the accepted pattern for Sophoniore English, even to the traditional query as to the authorship of Gray's Elegy.
And the close of our Sophomore year found us once more the proud possessors of the basketball banner, with once again the distinction of highest colors on College Day, and this time winning first place for our "pep" song.
Whereupon, we find ourselves arrived at the Modern history. Glorying in our "little sisters" and superior privileges, anticipating with much palpitation Junior and Senior reception, working with concentration and vigor to keep our laurels in athletics, we are marching with patience and determination toward seniordom and graduation - our "trade mark" still being pep, class spirit, and loyalty to F. M. C.

Junior Class Poem
The years have slipped by, like shadows,
Slowly fading in the gloom. The joy of work and achievement
We've had here must vanish soon.
The way has not all been level,
Nor the pathway strewn with flowers.
We have not missed one joy-note In the music of the hours.
When one more short year is over And our race at last is run,
May these parting words he said of us, "Go forth, the task was well done."

Sophomore Class History
THERE are some days which are pleasant to remember, others which we try in forget and still others which are so firmly impressed upon us that nothing can ever erase them from our memories.
The ninth of September, 1Ml'4, is a day which will ever stand out in the minds of at least 150 girls. For on that memorable day these same girls first filtered F. M. C. and began their college life; some with thoughts of good times, others with a vague idea that there would he some work connected with college life, and others with a ready mind for study— hut all with the determination to get -Mm. Thing from their life at Flora Bfacdonald.
The year '24--2J was the first that F. M. C. was ranked as an "A" College, and this happy circumstance was an added incentive to each new student to help uphold the standards which she found already established.
One hundred and fifty. In. led. so numerous were the Freshmen, one could hardly help noticing them. The election of our officers in the fall marked a real beginning of the (his, ,,f '28. Till that time we had been a great mass of un- sophisticated Freshmen— very evident objects of amusement and interest to our upper classmen.
But soon this body of enthusiastic girls ileveloin.il that necessary essential to any ( Tus- — < lass spirit — and with our famous "Freshman Campaign" we loudly announced our newborn allegiance to "Flossie Mac" and pledged our loyal support of tile Honor System.
In a few brief weeks another epoch in our history was reenacted. Tt was only a class meeting — we had held many such before. But they had not lasted for nearly two hours, nor had we all tried to have the floor at one time — so eager were we to have our "say." Nevertheless, after this occasion, the Freshmen realized that it takes individuals to make a class, and that each one had part in fulfilling our motto. "Life is what you make it."
In the fall of the next year, our class, though somewdiat diminished in numbers, again took up its work — this time, with slightly more settled minds. And ere the

fall had passed the loyal Blue and Grdd had won its greatest honor — the hockey championship.
Though the mad of a Sophomore sometimes seems hard, we still find life worth living, and many of us are earnestly looking forward to two more years at F. M. ( '..
and the time when we shall be the proud wearers of the ea] 1 gown- slid the
loyal elass of '28.

AGAINST the bright blur of the October sky stands a tall, dark pine tree. Its trunk is wrapped in a scarlet vine, vivid against the foliage behind. A gloriously orange oak flames before a boxwood hedge. The crimson sweet gum flaunts its coloring in brilliant contrast to the bright green of the long leaf pines.
A black, mysterious stream rushes along, carrying on its bosom a gay procession of fallen leaves, red and yellow, russet and orange, brown and gold. They float on and on while the golden sunlight stretches amber depths in the water below. Here is a very riot id' color, laid on by a Master Hand to form the perfect harmony of nature.

A Delicate Etching
Over night appears a fairy world of dazzling crystal, glittering diamonds, fragile glass. The delicate tracery of the drooping limbs under their burden of ice is silhouetted against the pale, winter sky. The sinking sun casts its last rays over this crystal forest. So shimmery beautiful is its sparkling purity, so delicately ethereal its icy charm, that the mind can almost grasp the incomparable wonder of that Holy City of the Apocalypse.
The rays of a hundred opals and saphires blaze on the trees. Glancing prisms and glowing gems fill the air with irridescent lights. This is a new creation — a celestial world of delicate beauty. Suddenly the sun sinks! The world is cold again — white and austere.

There is a glen which in the springtime is the home of nymphs and dryads. A carpet of delicate green lies underfoot and climbs the trunks of the trees on every side. There is heavy yellow and white honeysuckle and tiny wild violets like purple gems.
The dainty pink and green of the early budding maples sways in the swift, warm breeze like fairy wings. The dogwood trees, boughs of clustering white butterflies, star the greenery of the forest. The cardinal builds his nest, the blue-bird, pure azure in the sunlight, flashes across the space while the mocking bird pours forth the joy of love and life. The whole earth is full of beauty — its perfume, color. and melody.

The pale green of the tender leaves on the tall oat is blended with the shaded lavender and purple of the wisteria. The fragrance of the flowers fills the air. Their poignant loveliness clutches at the heart. A soft, gentle rain is falling, sweetly, soothingly, refreshingly. The pearly tears drop from the purple blossoms as it loathe to leave their beauty. The petals fall softly with the wooing rain. The ground is covered with a fragile carpet of lavender, fit spot fur Titanian's evening revels.
The sun breaks through the clouds. A rainbow bungs in the sky. The earth, refreshed, awakes again. The sweet perfume of rain-swept wisteria pervades the air like subtile incense of prayer. All creation offers a prayer of thanksgiving for eternal wonder of new-born spring.

OF friends there be many kinds. There is the friend one enjoys a joke and the friend to whom one can tidl one's troubles. But the friend who jolliest is he who will go on long, seemingly objectless journeys with one.
I am blessed with such an ■, su upon a day we set forth to visit an old orange
winery. A word of explanation will be appropriate here. A great many years ago. a group of English people emigrated to Florida and settled around two springs which seemed to be Oases in the desert of pine anil sand. They built themselves queer old houses and settled down comfortably to raise oranges with the help of their African slaves.
The oranges proved a bountiful source of income and the Englishmen waxed fat and bought more land from the Seminole Indians. Soon they were raising- more oranges than they could sell, so one brave spirit among them proposed a winery. This idea they seized upon with great enthusiasm and constructed one in the fall of 1849, about three quarters of a mile from Wekiwa Springs.
The wine made in this winery was shipped in bottles to Spain and to England. Some of it may still be in existence, who ean tell; lint alas for the English men who waxeil fat and rich from it. For disaster came in 1853 when zero weather killed all the orange trees. It was a most pitiful sight. The sap hurst from the trees and hung in long ieieles from their very hearts. The oranges were frozen balls of juice and the winery was shut down, never to be run again.
The English people all moved away, taking with them their slaves and house furnishings — all except one huge old earven bed which one may still see in one of the houses. It was too large to be moved, evidently the room had been built around it.
had heard vague reports of it and how in company with my delightful friend,
This is the history of the old winery. difficult it was to find, but I determined to attempt to find it.
First, we went to the dark little hotel that sits about the spring like an ugly idol. Here we were told that "twan't no use to try to find no winery and they wan't gonna' spind the whole night a-looking fer no lost folks in no dark pine woods."
Thanking them for their kindly interest, we went down to the dock on the river where dwelt twin brothers, one of whom is a major, but one ean never find out which. I suppose it is because the one never liked to get ahead of the other, so the "major" is kept a dark secret. We call them the "major-twins."
They received us with joy and upon our inquiring the way to the winery, gave us some implicit directions and a few wild warnings about ghosts. Of course our interest was aroused at once and we asked for further details. They told us, together, each supplementing each, of an "Id tale about a slave wdio had been sick at the time of the English Exodus and who had been found years later just inside the door of the winery where he had been slain. The people who had dis- covered him had fled and very few had again braved the sight of that toothless skeleton hanging so pitifully on his chains.
Oh, here was a romance indeed, we were not afraid of the skeleton — never. But what was our disappointment to hear the twin majors say that the slave had mysteriously disappeared about twenty years ago and now only the chains re-

mained. This was sorrow indeed but we cheered ourselves with the thought of tin' chains and hurried up the palm-fringed path from the river. We passed the hideous little hotel with a toss of our heads and continued on our way, remember- ing the implicit direction.
The path was hardly definiable and we were relieved when we came to an old field where grew four or five ancient, beven-covered orange trees. We were getting nearer now. but we noticed with dismay that the sky was growing grayer and grayer and immense storm-clouds were rolling across the sky. The country became most dismal, the tall pines draped with long Spanish moss were mourn- ing and groaning in the wind like lost souls wailing in perdition. Huge gray water-oaks surrounded us and we felt like we should suffocate.
The way became harder and harder, sand spurs stuck us at every step and long spear grass had to be battled with. Everything in nature seemed warning us to not go to the winery. The sky became blacker and blacker and I looked at my friend and he looked at me. Should we attempt it? Yes. Nothing could keep us from it now. I read this in his eyes for neither of us spoke a word, the air was so heavy that we breathed with difficulty.
Suddenly a lightning flash rent the heavens and everything stood out stark and bare in the glaring light. Before us, between two ancient oaks, was an old frame building, gray with age and moss covered from its roof to its foundation. The rain began pouring in torrents now and we dashed madly for shelter. I clawed ineffectually at the rusty lock and then broke it with a stick which I picked up from the rain-spattered sand. The heavy old door swung outward with a shrilling creak and we pulled ourselves up the high step and stood, panting and drenched. in the gloom of the old winery.
Thor and Neptune both seemed to be waging a battle royal in front of our eyes. The lightning flashed in great zigzags across the inky sky and Thor sent his thunder-bolts hurtling into our very midst. Neptune spent his energy in sending sheet after sheet of gray driving rain, roaring around the trees and beating furiously against the swaying pines and running down in streams from the moss.
I did not dare look behind me, but 1 felt all sorts of things. I just knew that old guardian slave was standing behind us gibbering with his toothless gums and guarding his post with a rusty calabre. But he was'ut. For I was suddenly start- led by a voice at my side. "Look, look .yonder, what is that?"
I turned to look behind me with a frozen heart. What indeed was it. In tin- half gloom that was broken only by one small cobwebbed window we could see huge shapes that looked like fat giants, taking their daily nap. They were gigantic hogsheads of colossal dimensions. There were eight of them, four on a side and they must have been twenty feet high apiece. At their ends, we could distinguish huge bungs where the wine had been poured out.
All this time we had been standing in one place, rather afraid to move, and a good thing it was too, for had we taken one step more we would have fallen down into a deep pit where the flooring had given away. We found a plank and placed it over this hole on which we walked precautiously to safer footing.
Then we explored the. winery, with our hearts in our mouths. The storm continued outside, but we forgot all about it. We were too delighted with our surroundings. There were old orange peelers, ancient machines of queer design. There was a strange old press, run by baud and another foot-press where the oranges were pressed by bare-foot slaves just as grapes were pressed in Bible times.
Eighty-four
We found a gorgeous pair of antique fire tongs which we placed near the en- trance to take home with us.
Then we came to the "piece de resistance." We found the heavenly blue bottles. I had heard of "heavenly blue," but I had never seen it until that day. They were gorgeous. When oiie held them up to the light and looked through them. one would be sailing on the blue Mediterranean in a virgin-blue boat with a blue dome of a sky coming down to close one in on all sides. They were wonderful.
They were sitting around in dusty rows, some of them toppled over and some broken by ruthless hands. Thus had they sat, year in and year out since that freezing day so long ago when the English had gone away. It was sad that so much beauty should have been left in this dark place for so long a time.
The bottles were so heavy that we could only carry one apiece and we had to remember our tongs; so we each chose one and carried them to the door. The storm had abated and only the beaten ground and the dripping trees bore witness to it. In the west a faint yellow was beginning to suffuse the sky and a piece of blue sky broke through as we looked.
Dark would soon come on in earnest so we gathered up our finds and shut the creaking old door and bade farewell to our winery.
The journey back to the spring was not so hard nor as long as the one going to the winery. Of course we were drenched to the skin by the weeds and wW branches which brushed against us as we made our way over the rain hardened sand.
We were delighted with our trophies and resolved to return the next day and obtain more bottles to add to our collection and to explore farther into the old winery.
We did return— but we did'nt find it and nobody has, since. They say it rotted down years ago and the old hogsheads were chopped up for kindling by the' major twins' father. But we went there and we have the blue bottles, the heavenly blue bottles and the beautiful tongs. Did we dream it? Could we both dream the same dream and at the same time? The Major twins didn't know us when we went to them. Are we crazy — both crazy? But we have the blue bottles, the heavenly blue bottles and the ancient fire tongs.

Ballade
There is a Beauty far more poignant than pain;
There is a Loveliness that pierces deep —
Scent of swaying lilacs in the rain —
My mother's kisses, when I'm half asleep.
The shrill, unanswered call the spring frogs keep,
And fragrant smoke ascending seems a sigh —
This Loveliness, it hurts me like a cry!
The wailing whistle of a far off train Faint-heard, and drowsily; when dusk shall creep, Plaintive mourn of whip-poor-will again And in the cool twilight, a bat's swift sweep — Cape jessamine's heavy incense — heap Them up, an aching wave so high! This Loveliness — it hurts me like a cry!
The haunting, wistful, violin's tender strain Stirs in me to a swelling, throbbing lea])! T can not hold it all — it is too much — I fain Would laugh — would sing — ah, I must weep ! My half-forgotten silvery dreams, I'll keep Them warm, I can not let them die. This loveliness, it hurts me like a cry!
L'Envoi
My dear, I wish that you were here again. I want so much to feel you near, close by. I want, to share with you this glad sweet pain, This Loveliness, that hurts me like a cry.

BOOK IV
Y. W. C. A.
WK earnestly desire that every girl in our school join us in carrying on the world-wide work that is expressed in the purpose of the Young Woman's Christian Association, which strives to make consistent Christian living and the ideals of earnestness, happiness, love, and service the aim of every Flora Mac- ,1 Id girl. An aim, so simple in the statement, yet how profound in meaning!
To the Knights in the days of old,
Keeping watch on the mountain heights, Came a vision of Holy Grail
Ami a voieo thl'OUgh the waiting; night. Follow, follow, follow the gleam
Banners unfurled o'er all the world, Follow, follow, follow the gleam
Of the Chalice that is the Grail.
And we who would serve the King, And loyally Him obey,
In the consecrate silence know- That the challenge still holds today.
Follow, follow, follow the gleam
Standards of worth o'er all the earth.
Follow, follow, follow the gleam
Of the light that shall bring the dawn.

The Point System
To prevent a small group of students from holding all the student offices, a point system has been adopted.
No student can hold offices amounting to more than ten points in one College year.
The point system is under the direction of a Student Recorder of Points.
It is the duty of the Student Recorder of Points to keep in touch with all elections, and to see that no student carries more than the allowed number of points.

The Athletic Board
The purpose of the Flora Macdonald Athletic Association is to encourage good sportsmanship and t'air play, not only on the athletic field, but in the class work, in the honor system, and other phases of college life; also to prepare the girls physically, mentally, and morally for their future work.
As an aid to this purpose there is selected a varsity team from each sport, hockey, basketball, tennis, and track. These are merely honorary teams. The girls are selected not only for their playing ability but for their standing in classes, keeping rules, and general good sportsmanship.
This year much constructive work has been attempted. Tireless efforts have been made in working over the old constitution and reorganizing the Association on the Y. W. C. A. plan; that is, various committees have been organized, as financial, publicity, upkeep of grounds, etc., with the chairman of each on the Athletic Board, the executive part of the Association.

DELIVERING COAL BY WIRE
Even in this age of miracles people would hardly credit the assertion if they were told that invisible coal and water are being delivered by wire.
Yet that is exactly what this and every other public utility is doing every hour of the day and night.
It requires millions of tons of coal and millions of gallons of water to generate the electricity which provides light or drives the motors of industry. Invisible coal also is transported in pipes when gas is used.
In hundreds of other ways the util- ities invisibly serve their customers, cheaper and better than they could serve themselves.

(Apologies to Kipling)
WIIEX the annual's last picture is mounted, And the paste tube is twisted and dried — When the latest picture has faded — And the youngest proofreader has died — We shall rest — and faith we shall need it —
Sit around for a month or two Till the annual of twenty-seven Shall give us more work to do.
We who've worked hard shall be happy,
As we sit at home in our chair. And look at our '26 annual With a deeply self-satisfied air. We shall find new reasons to praise it.
And enjoy that "Will," every word. Or, isn't this group artistic?
And the jokes are the richest I've heard.
We wish that the readers will praise us,
We hope at least they wont blame. For none of us worked for money And none of us worked for fame. But each for the joy of working
Following duty's call, We hope, if you think it's easy,
You'll try it next year —
That's all!
