CHAPTER I.

Commencement day is, so to speak, resurrection day in the good old college town of Shingleton, set among the red clay hills and the sweet smelling pines that belong to one of the oldest coun- ties in the state of Mississippi.

On commencement day there is a general uprising of the population, sparse and scattered as it is, to see that Shingleton does credit to itself and hon- or to the college.

Poor and rich, humble and hau ghty, from the baker’s baby burdened wife up to the president's childless ‘‘lady,’’ ev- ery one makes common cause of the an- nual and stirring climax to a year of somewhat languid intellectual exertion.

Local pride and feminine ingenuity are evoked confidently and exercised without stint. It is only once a year that Shing)eton challenges public atten- tion, and it strenuously endeavors to pose respectably on that one important date, putting out of sight, as far as pos-

ible, every indication of its ordinary out at heelness.

Shingleton frankly admits that its everyday methods may be open to crit- icism and is mildly convinced that in a hand to hand contest for municipal lav- rels with any one of the half dozen plebeian little te-vns that have sprung up since it reached its majority it would very likely come off second if net third best.

But the staid old college town does not medtate any such unseemly contest with the villages whose mushroom ac- tivities are an offense in its nostrils. Shingleton stands upon its dignity in an attitude of perpetual aloofness from its neighbors.

Marks of age and of pinching poverty pit its venerable face deeply. Its paint- less fences, its crumbling brick houses, its weather etained frame buildings, its patched and peeling stucco facades, are drearily suggestive of a badly pock- marked old face.

If it were not for the college, Shingle- ton might have dropped out of the memory of every one but the mapmak- ers loug ago. But the college been and will be a thing of today, yes terday and tomorrow, linking Shingle- ton’s pathetic present with a splendid past and a problematical future.

Local pride clusters with considerable

, confidence about the two solemn eyed dingy red brick houses that are equerely in the middle of vast acres of untilled and untillabie ground in the suburbs of the town. These houses are brick and mortartwins. The same num- ber of broad, squat windows in each, duplicate front doors, clumsy and por

The same description of low cei! ed, white finished, rectangular apart- | ments in each. | One of these time defying creations is the college proper, the other shelters the professors’ families and the boaru- | ing students.

The decigne r of this solitary decorative touch evidently had leanings toward the enduring.

Some anperishing pox trees, a few long lived arbor vites, large laure mundi or two, a tangle of pink and white azaleas, long since grown to the dimensions of trees, all clustered ir- regularly about the stem of a century nleut whose blossom tide had occurred

Occasionally gardeners who have been hired to nip any desultory tendencies on tie part ef the rigid shrubs and bushes within this rigid inclosure have brought to light specimens of petrified wood, which seem, curiously enough, to be the most natural product of the petrified ’ on specimens, duly classified and labeled, have been honored with con- spicuous paces in the rather ene geological collection which finds amp/e cccormmodation in & small showcase purchased at a milliner’s bankrupt sale. | This collection of minerals in the show- case is called the college museum and = an object of respectful awe to the vi fage urchins.

STORY OF

ae BELLU DAYS,

tween this arid nursery of learning and tature in her sweetest, wildest, most riotous mood. Close about the college ¢rounds great forest trees crowd ant fling soft, thick, soothing shadows far out over the bare, hot sod of the college inclggnure. Wild grapevines and flam- ing ‘‘trumpeters’’ clamber tumultuons- ly over the sharp barbs of the fence, adorning the. rain washed gullies about them with a delicate, lacelike tracery of green. Into the very presence of the

pundits the fanghter of a babbling creek intrudes. It leaps untrammeled over its bed of shining pebbles in gleeful mock- ery of man’s laborious efforts to master nature’s well kept secrets. The creek knows them all by heart, at least all that it concerns it to know. As for the rest—poof! That for it! It lets them all alone. Wise babbler!

On commencement day this an important factor in the general fes- tivities. All the day long vehicles of all sorts and condition toil collegeward over hot and dusty clay roads, deposit-

At the open door of Shin church the cargoes

Far across its dimpling waters the switch willows stretch their slender green wands, to the infinite content of the hot and panting brutes.
