One of the sweetest memories of
the convention !s the little Indian
Legend wrltton by one of the club
members and will surely bo enjoyed
by those who were not there. At
tached to the little card was a dainty
cluster of tho Klnnlknic berries that
abound, in tho vicinity of Seaisde.
Thus runs the legend:
By Necanicum's green waters.
Once there lived an Indian maid.
In a tepee mndu of deer skin,
'Woath tho plno trees' cooling
shade.
She was named Necannekowlo
"Goddess of the Luughlin Eyes"
And her voleo was II ko the zephyr,
When among tho trees It sighs.
'Hound her door grew fragrant
blossoms,
Daisies, ferns and violets Bweel
And a legend said, "Tho flowers I
Sprang whero'er sho placed her
feot."
All tho birds wore her companions;
In her moss grown garden there
Bhe could sing tho songs of nature,
Coax tho wild things from their!

Bhe was litlio as any panther,
As sho roamed tho forest thru.
AH the tribes paid her their homage
And they proved her strong and
truo.
One blight mom as dawn was casting
Golden glories In the enst,
"Laughing Eyes" rose very early.
To attond tho "Magic Feast".
To the wator's edge sho hastened,

Paddled up tho gentle river
Till tho mendows camo to view

That would prove their strength and
prowess
Give them laurel wreaths of fame.
As the maid moved swiftly towards
them,
One tall red-skin drew his bow
He ne'er saw the winsome creature
And before the crowd could know
He had drawn his tawny muscles
Let the arrow cut the air,
And it struck the Indian maiden
On her sun-kissed forehead fair.
As they help her through the forest
And the tribe walled lu despair
It was found that where her blood
dropped
Grew a shining berry, there.
As the day sank in its splendor
"Laughing Eyes' " soul passed
away,
But the berries fill the woodland
Kven to tills very day.
Virginia Drake,

pecially devoted to these reports
which took tho place of the usual
time set aside for Current Events.
Mrs. Halley reud a paper pertaining
to Home Economics, "The Domestic
Sldo of tho Civil Service". Tills
enlightened the members upon the
good of the Civil Service laws that
aro now extending to domestic side
of our lives.

Bthe""l around it and roasted their

were featured and stories told and
speeches made, making the evening
a happy buccoss. Tho dramatic
ability of several of tho '"hopes" of
our high school was made "evident
when they presented tho thrilling
poom "Lochinvar" in drama. Great
applause greeted the efforts of the
young people and no doubt Hose

these "stars" when they have secur
ed International fame and glory.
The Hose school also ndded to the
