The group of juniors, however, who had made the school's athletic record for the year in the Girls' Branch Athletic League, had other matters to discuss and in their opinion they were matters of much greater moment. "Boiled down," stated Bobby Hargrew, "to its last common divisor, it is 'Where, oh, where shall we spend our vacation?"
General Armstrong asked me to take charge of the night-school, and I did so. At the beginning of this school there were about twelve strong, earnest men and women who entered the class. During the day the greater part of the young men worked in the school's sawmill, and the young women worked in the laundry.
Sidonie, once more the school's queen-flower, sat calm, with just a trace of tears adding a subtle something to her beauty. "Chil'run, beloved chil'run," said Bonaventure, standing once more by his desk, "yo' school-teacher has the blame of the sole mistake; and, sir, gladly, oh, gladly, sir, would he always have the blame rather than any of his beloved school-chil'run!
With a shower of mysterious nods and winks, Hurst rushed away and bounded up the stairs to the schoolroom. Arthur returned to Mr. Galloway's. "Thomas!" uttered Mr. Channing, in amazed reproof. "Well, papa, and so it is! and the school's going pretty near mad over it!" returned Tom, turning his crimsoned face upon his father.
Their apprentice term is served. School's out. They are moved up. The Music of the Wind Harp. Please remember that these are flood-tide results. Some good people will never know them except in a very limited way. For they do not open the sluice-gates wide enough to let the waters reach flood-tide.
The two pairs of twins were quite a contrast, and many persons stopped to look at them as they passed along the street together. "No, sir," went on Bert musingly, "school's no fun, and it starts about a week after we get home. No chance to have a good time!" "We've had fun all summer," replied his sister. "I rather like school."
It was one of the old traditions of Lawrenceville football to have a game every year with Pennington Seminary. What man is there who attended either school who does not recall the spirit of those old-time contests? The Hill School was another of our football rivals. The trip to Pottstown, Pa., was an event eagerly looked forward to so also was the Hill School's return game at Lawrenceville.
Nancy never did this without remembering her adventures before she came to Pinewood Hall the occasion when she had helped save Bob Endress from drowning. Bob was now a lordly senior at Dr. Dudley's Academy. Nancy had only seen him flashing past the girls' boathouse in the Academy eight. Bob was stroke of his school's first crew. Nancy often wondered if he had learned to swim yet.
"You talked a lot about what you'd do with the nine -and what have you done? Left us the boobies of the league. We're the winners of the leather medal." "Why didn't you play yourself, then?" snarled Hi. "I wish I had. But we Norths were fooled by the talk you gave us about how baseball really ought to be played and managed. You're the school's mascot, you are, Hi Martin. Not!"
In fact, my tuition was expected to offset the school's milk bill, yet that did not lessen my enthusiasm. I was eager for knowledge. I also expected to meet familiar faces in that great building, which had been the home of Mr. Jacob Leese.
