Lyric Rainbow .Edited by 11*alter Evans Kidd Separate (To Hyacinth) ° Only the bats swoop thru the heavy air, Only the black night leans across ihe grass— No star, no moon, no wind: and down die stair No silver slippers flash. The shadows mass. Heart of my heart, I'm lonely in the night. My visions wane. My high thots cry untold Within my soul. And love burns on. Our white Youth swiftly goes. Too soon we shall be old. Too soon we shall be dead. Heath knows no end. 0 my Beloved, come to me tonight— Come to my breast—dream with me for a space: We’ll climb a hill in starry-mad delight; Then we shall kiss and fearlessly descend To darkness—you with rapture on your face. —WALTER EVANS KIDD (“The Lyric”) * # * # Narcissus It will not matter in a thousand years That you have seen and yet not found me fair. The moon will shine the same. My futile fears And hopeless hopes will rest in dust somewhere. Yet now is now, and I am here! Narcissus blooms—my dear—my dear— —MARGARET SKA VLAN. (Honorable mention in the 192,5 College Anthology) * # * * The Blind Painter’s Mistress Yes, I am beautiful—Why did I choose To spend myself on one who had no eyes?— “Think how the gods must laugh that he should lose Himself unwittingly in paradise!” ’Tis so they spoke, these foolish friends at tea Upon the terrace. How were they to know My mad, barbaric joy? He comes to me At night to kiss my outspread hair. I go Into a sleep where I can share his dark, And he to dreams of color and of light. My beauty to our love is but the spark To kindle it to flame, yet never quite Can he possess the light whose warmth he feels. I lie within his arms—his heart can find How much I love—to him my spirit kneels— So dear—so inarticulate—so blind. —MARGARET SKA VLAN (“Overland Monthly”) Lilith Once Cain the child of Adam played With goldfish in a little pool. The demon-woman passed the cool Embowered glade. The baby-ronndness of the child, His curls, his gurgles of delight Drew.Lilith’s eyes, and at the sight She stopped and smiled. She smiled again, then nearer stepped. Wind-tossed of hair, strange, amber-eyed She stood; Eve’s son fled terrified. And Lilith wept. —MARGARET SKAVLAN (in “Palms”) # * # # To a Child Crying for the Moon Hush, little one, and go to sleep— It cannot be. We all reach finite hands to grasp Infinity. (in “Overland Monthly”) —MARGARET SKAVLAN. * * # * Interment I hide the thought of you within my heart— Too sweet to wrap in winding-sheet of verse— And yet it so shall be. Egyptian art Traced mortal beauty ere it could depart, Sealed it unfaded against Time’s dull curse. And who shall say in what dream-wonderment I shall behold this love for you some day?— This princess was found buried, with the scent Still in her jeweled hair, and wise men bent To touch her little shoes, with tomb-dust gray. —MARGARET SKAVLAN (in “The Fugitive”) * # * # A Mexican Laborer Sings Only a Mexican laborer Strumming a square tin can guitar, Only a broken voice shrilling In the fire flicker on the rough box ear. “Valga mi Dios” Burdened pathos in a knotty tone: Tomorrow only brings more labor, Swing o,f the pick and clatter of tools— Still he sees the bull-pit and flashing saber. ' “Cuando sali a Habana” The man in the moon must have made A twisted, mirthless sidewise grin, While the black eyes ached with longing As bitter as an untold sin. His voice broke in an ashy sob; The fire paled beggarly-low: Through the nicotine dark Onlv his cigaret’s small vellow glow. —ALFRED ANDREWS. • # # • A Sonnet to Hyacinth » Now we shall live! We'll drink these April days Like wine, with every sorrow hid behind Your beauty: in your lyric eyes I find The uplands of our love that dewly blaze With buttercups in prints where danced the feet Of Pan. Let’s stretch upon the grass and twine Faith with our folly—hear a lark repeat The aching bliss your lips hpve taught to mine. We’ll let the sage (with whiskers down to here) Frown at the morning blossoms of our mirth And chide the dream of Pan and lean to peer Into the cynic darkness of the earth— Our souls, beyond his gaze, reach to a star; Beloved, we live our lives for what they are. —WALTER EVANS KIDD—(“The Harp”) Bk ALPHA DELIA SICNIA ELECTS NEW MEMI Podges Will Sport Sand wich Boards An extraordinary recognition for work done in the field of advertis ing was awarded to four University of Oregon students by election to Alpha Delta Sigma, national hon orary advertising fraternity, yes terdya.

However, this weather makes! me think of good times rather | than good lessons. * * < You don’t know hew thrilled| I was when Harry, whom I have 1 been cherishing as a secret sor-1 row, took me canoeing last night. | Two other couples went with us. 1 Everything had been so com- § pletely arranged by the boys, | even to the dishes. Harry said that they bought a Lily Picnic package at Underwood and El liot’s Grocery, for in this con venient package the paper cloth and napkins, bread and batter plates, salad dishes, spoons and cups are packed. They are so easy to carry, and can be thrown away as soon as they have been used. * * * As I aim having a date with Harry again tonight, I made a trip down to the Hasting Sisters this morning and had a facial pack. Now my skin has the pink, healthy glow that makes rouge unnecessary. There, one may get excellent facial shampoos, both plain and pack, as well as bleaches. The girls from the house all go there, as the work is done by experts. ) * When Set aldine and Peg were at Raup’s Floral Shop getting roses and sweet peas for decorations I tor the tea we had the other day, they said that they saw two gor geous bridal bouquets there, too. Judging from the way the girls spoke, I know they were elabor ate affairs. Peg said that each eontained large pink roses com bined with sweet peas of the same delicate shade, a touch of foliage, and rich-looking lilieB of the valley. Doesn’t, it make one wish that she were the one to carry such a beautiful bouquet? * * * Between classes, I stopped in at the Co-ed Barber Shop, which is on Kincaid street, next to the Co-op, and had a feather-edge bob. By means of an electric clipper—and professional barbers —a woman never fails to get a "factory hair cut there. Then, too, there are no rpen to gaze while one’s hair is trimmed, for this shop is exclusively for women. ' < » » • Dressmaking is generally a tiresome thing, particularly when one has to worry about pleats, or getting buttons to match the garment. These problems are .all eliminated by patronizing the Art and Needlcraft Shop, which is just next to the First National bank, for there all seams can be finished neatly by hemstitching, J or decorations can be applied in j the same way. Besides, it is pos sible to get pleats of any type in any kind of material, as well as various kinds of buttons for • every need. ^ f j The S ty 1 e Shop is having a special to day and Sat -I urday on some) very late ar-j rivals.
