Excerpt from The Smith College Monthly, Vol. 30: November, 1921 At the age of twelve, I centered seven per cent of my interest on those things concerning girls, ninety-three per cent on those concern ing boys. For dolls, I had not the slightest regard - for playing such games as Lady Come to See I had only sneers - but at climbing trees I was adept. I was the only girl on our baseball team - I could out-run any of our gang as we called ourselves - None of the budding femininity of which the poets write could be discerned in me. I was happiest when dressed in bloomers and a khaki middy blouse, heavy elkskin shoes and no hat. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Smith College Monthly, Vol. 1: October, 1893 After this came the debates, two in number, the first on the theme, Was Crates the philosopher right, when, having met an ignorant boy, he administered a beating to his teacher? The second of a speculative sort: It is forbidden a stranger to mount the wall. A mounts the wall, hbut only to assist the citizens in repelling their enemies. Has A broken the law? The debates were very well conducted, and at the Close the master presented the successful contestants with valuable books as prizes. After the boys had gone I lingered to speak with the master, who was very willing to give me any information that I desired. He told me that his boys read Homer, Horace, Virgil and some of the great tragedians that he frequently picked out some knotty point in the lesson and set the boys to arguing for and against some view of it and that he ranked his pupils by their ability in this branch of study. Music he also taught, and geometry. But that, he said with a sigh, they do not like and will not learn. He made a specialty Of exercises in writing Greek verses, which was good news to me. But the pupils give by far the larger part of their time and atten tion to the preparation and presentation of such themes-as I have already mentioned, joined to much paraphrasing of fables, anecdotes, and so forth, to give fluency of speech. I have not yet decided with regard to my own course, but when I do, you may rest assured that I will send you word. Farewell.

Excerpt from The Smith College Monthly, Vol. 8: October, 1900-June, 1901 There are two great essentials Of that power Of dealing with life which I defined a little while ago knowledge of self, and knowledge Of human nature. The great value Of the college life, to my mind, is the way in which it forces upon every par ticipant in it some knowledge at least Of these two great reali ties. If, looking back upon her four years' course, the gradu ate can feel that despite her many mistakes and failures and follies, She has laid firm hold on the first Of these two great essentials. The knowledge of self, has come to understand, once for all, her own powers, limitations, and capacities; and has begun to grasp the meaning Of the second, to understand some thing Of the richness and fullness and marvelousness Of human nature, - then she has reason to be profoundly grateful for all the experiences that have forced upon her the knowledge Of these things.

Excerpt from The Smith College Monthly, Vol. 9: October, 1901-June, 1902 Most of us come to college with a tabula rasa on which to make our own mark; some few have antecedents with a repu tation to bear the weight of and other few come with a fame already heralded in the college by zealous friends. But the college, or more especially the class, reserves to itself the right of making up its own mind about us. This it does gradually by the aid of our looks, - if perchance we figure on the plat form Of our first class meeting, - by the aid of our recitations, our athletic acquirements, our dramatic talent, and our gen eral deportment. It picks out in the first year or two those whom it considers to have been born great; it admires their genius, and honors it by making of it a yardstick on which to measure the lesser attainments of the majority. Then there is another class of those who have greatness thrust upon them. They come into prominence by some unexpected circumstance or coincidence of their environment or a friend's confidence in their latent possibilities puts them in office; or the chance re mark Of an Observer sets rolling the ball of favorable opinion, which gathers as it goes, and leaves behind it a track as ephem eral as its own substance. Vague things are these, and hard to analyze, where reputation springs up like a mushroom of one night's growth, with no apparent depth of earth. Yet it does not always meet with the mushroom's early fate. One is justi fied in a good deal of seemingly blind faith in human nature by finding how often a reputation meets its equal in reality. Rep utation is a monster that may swell for a time, like Aesop's frog, on air but if it is not to come to the same end, or Shrink to emaciation as the result of its unnatural gymnastics, it must have more substantial stuffing; and it is very likely to get it. Many a student here meets so well the conditions of the great ness thrust upon her that one is convinced that many fail of greatness merely for lack of an opportunity to develop it.

Excerpt from The Smith College Monthly, Vol. 15: October, 1907-June, 1908 The consolation and happy moment of life, atoning for all short-comings, is a flame Of affection or delight in the heart, burning up suddenly for its Object, - the words are Emerson's. And what Shall keep alive the flame in this inner shrine Of sweet solace and hope, except it be relighted from the central fire, the fervent heart Of humanity, where one individual enkindles another to thought and joy Among human beings there is a passion for expression, and the college cherishes every mode which it assumes - science, deeds and art. A life long since spent finds immortality among men, lives on in memory or in the symbol into which it once breathed its soul, and with quick flame touches hearts to ardent response. Our college desires to partake, not only of the life Of the past but Of the Vital current of today, to Share in the spirit of the age. And so it seeks to broaden its friendships and become an integral, living part Of the world of thought and aspiration. We may recall how, nearly four years ago, a poet found his way to us from the land of Eire and the Dark Rosa - the Celtic lore that he sang made strange, incomprehensible music between us.

Excerpt from The Smith College Monthly, Vol. 11: October, 1903-June, 1904 In the playing Of a game or the directing of an enterprise the essential requirement for any degree Of perfection is a keen sense of proportion. When in the game, we ask ourselves, shall we put forth our greatest strength, or what points in our enter prise demand the most careful forethought and attention And so it is with our life, - call it work or play - we shall come to our highest perfection only as we look upon it in the truest possible perspective. Yet this principle is one very little recognized in proportion to its importance; one which we are constantly violating by erroneous habits Of thought and by the careless use of words and phrases which call erroneous ideas into being.
