JUNE
June is the month of commencements
in Seward—of the sweet girl graduate, and
the oratorical youth who takes for his vale
dictory theme “The World’s Problems and
How to Solve Them.” This is the month
when school, college and university take the
center of the stage and hold it in undisput
ed sovereignty. What poetry there is in
the commencement season,—the girls in
white, the bouquets of flowers, the music
and the diplomas, and overhead in flaming
letters the closs motto “Beyond the Alps
Lies Italy.” Who has not sensed the rain
bows that halo the commencement occasion,
and likewise who has not responded to the
minor chord of sadness as the graduates
sing with gusto and possibly for the last
time together their class songs. For, school,
college and university days are such dear
days of inspiration, of fun and frolic, of
lasting friendships, and of dreaming
dreams which may or may not come true.
Then June is the month of weddings,
the bride's month in all verity. All the world |
loves a bride, whether she come from the ]
ranks of the humble and the wedding be a
marvel of simplicity, or she emerge from
the home of the rich and the great, and the
occasion be one of pomp and elaborate cere
monies—what matters it. All the world
loves a bride. It will be a sorry day for so
ciety should the romance of marriage suf
fer loss or the wedding be treated as com
monplace and a mere formality. Weddings
are solemn, not sad; they are impassive
events, and flippancy at such a time is the
acme of poor taste. June is the bride’s
month, her very own. Roses then for the
bride’s hair, roses in her hands, roses in her
cheeks, roses for her path, roses for the
bride!
You read it in The Gateway first!
THE MODERN GIRL
A fresh young man in Seattle, who ven
tured to speak to a strange girl, was very
promptly knocked down by the offended
one. "I don’t know what it was all about,”
he told the judge when he appeared in
court the next morning. “She hit me so
fast I’m still wondering.” Things have
changed indeed since the days when women
screamed or fainted in such circumstances.
Let our too exuberant youth reflect that the
modern girl is amply able to take care of
herself.
A GRAVE MISTAKE
Britons have just opened with ceremo
ny an 1845 beef can of the Sir John Frank
lin expedition. A mistake, a grave mistake!
The stuff should have been saved for the
next war, when soldiers would have had to
eat it. Embalmed beef in peace time is un
thinkable.
POLITICAL SATIRISTS
According to Pinchot, Pennsylvania is
drying up. According to some' Pennsylva
nians, Pinchot never will. Doubtless both
Pepper and Vare are among the satirists,
tho they can agree on nothing else.
