AUF WIEDERSEHEN School is over and Farewells have been said. To those of
us who will not return again to Pacific college there will remain but a memory, more or less lasting, of the school itself, of the students, the dorm fellows, and of the faculty. Unless we meet again, there will be no way of proving, even to ourselves, that we have ever really been to such a place as P. C.—providing that we have not been influenced materially by the contact. Whether we have or not, depends greatly on the effort that we have expended. ••
How many of us, we wonder, will carry the stamp of Pacific college ?
The wedding of Miss Nina Northrup and Charles Post, both of whom were former Pacific college students, occurred last Sunday, June 5, at the Newberg Methodist church. For one of the musical numbers Veldon Diment sang "Oh Promise Me", being accompanied at the piano 'by Professor Hull.
Miss Esther Binford and Miss Mildred Michener were showered with linen gifts at Kanyon Hall Saturday, May 21. Hostesses were Grace Mason, La Verne Hutchens, Bernice Coppock, and Veva Garrett.

LICENSE IN SPELLING There has been evidence of misunderstanding on the part of
some as to the standard of spelling, if any exists, which The Crescent has employed for the last several issues. We hasten to inform them that, as diligently as practicable, all simplified spelling forms used were verified in Funk & Wagnalls New Standard Dictionary. No attempt has been made to adopt all the forms that are there authorized, but great care has been taken in using no form which it does not include.
Special attention should be directed to the only correct authorized spelling of the following words: thought, bought, and nought. Since these words have not been simplified officially, they must be spelt as authorized. However, the following words have been authorized and their use recommended: enuf, laf, lafter, prof-ct, fenomenon, fonograf, etc.
As to other simplified spellings adopted by The Crescent, no change has been made except in the past tense of verbs ending in ed, the ed being dropt, in most cases, and a t substituted.
THE PRICE OF CIVILIZATION The plain truth is, we all have some-,
thing the matter with us. Perfect health is practically nonexistant among adults. We are housed in bodies which were designed for an entirely different plan of life. Even our erect posture I is contrary to our physical mechanics. With every year of our development the conflict between our method of life and our bodily equipment is bound to increase. And what does this lead to? It leads tp disease, of course; and disease is the price we pay for civiliza-tlon.

ARE YOU FAT? If so, don't worry. A profound re
search by a Japanese student has disclosed that few fat people ever commit criminal acts, and that those who do, [ can easily be reformed. The same | study revealed that most criminals are slender.
Curiously, the announcement by the Japanese student is confirmed by Shakespeare. He wrote: "Let me have men about me that are fat; sleek-headed men, and' such as sleep o' nights: ' yon Cassius has a lean and hungry look; he thinks too much: such men ; are dangerous."

My, how good it will feel for the Freshmen this summer to be able to boast to their little brothers and sisters that they've been in college for a whole year. But will there be any change noticeable about them? Emphatically NO! Not in any sense of the word.
Familiarity breeds contempt, to be sure, but to apply this to an intimate acquaintance of college life such as we have received, we would put it milder by saying that it certainly takes the glamour out of the prospect of a second year of it.
SEABECK DISCUST "Seabeck" was the topic of discus

Dorothea Mueller and Elinor Whipple were in charge of the singing while the meeting was led by Veva Garrett.

FAREWELL, BACHELORS; I'M GETTING MARRIED-
(Dedicated to Irvin Ricketts) Well-, boys. I ve taken the fatal step!
I took the fates in my hands last night> and told Tier she was going to m a n y me, and when you talk to them like that, they never refuse. Now just keep your seats and don't get excited. I've thought it all thru and it's the only logical thing to do. Vou boys are just jealous and hate to see me leave, and' you know it.
Here's the way I look at it: A fellow can stand certain, things just about so long before they get him, and I've stood this stag hunch just about that long. I'm out for a permanent interest in a bit of feminine beauty in ruffles and sashes, with a little local color and perfume thrown in. Go ahead and grin, but you know as well as I do that a peipetual landscape of shirt collars and neckties und?r a few whiskers gets mighty tiresome, and I vote for a change of scenery. "Just me and my shadow" have been "strolling down the avenue" long enuf, so I'm replacing the shadow with one I can talk to and put , my arm around.
Now don't take me wrong. Tou boys are all right, of course, but I can't quite feature kissing any one of you. Neither can I feature sitting across the breakfast table from a bunch of early morning grouches when I can enjoy my ham and eggs to the tune of real music.
And speaking of food, she's the best little cook you ever saw! I'll probably have to learn to like salads and a lot of other "fixings", but while I'm doing that you fellows will still be growling about fried potatoes, bread puddings and last week's stew. You'lT still be getting your cigar stubs mixt and hanging your coats on cobwebs while I'm thrusting my thums under my suspenders over a welKordei ed household. Of course, I'll never be able to find my collars and' ties and socks, but I won't have to use force to get to wear them myself when they are found. I'll have the satisfaction, too, of knowing that my white shirt hasn't gone to the theater with Harold, and that my extra suit isn't dining out with Pete's blonde.
O, it will be perfect! Sublime! You can boast about your single blessedness and freedom if you want to, but as for me—well
I'M GETTING MARRIED! (With thanks and apologies to the
Linfleld Review.)
THERE'S A LONG, LONG TRAIL The campus and dormitoiies remained
strangely silent after 10:30 p. m. a week ago Friday when, with a snort,' a puff, and a bang the old school bus, with its nineteen carefree occupants, chugged away toward Larch Mt. in a cloud of dust and amid a shower of farewells.
While merrily rolling along the great White Way of the City of Roses a terrific RANG changed the soft, happy warblings of the innocent little occupants into one simultaneous cry of "Don't shoot! Don't shoot!" And then "O, only a Rat!"
"But what're a couple of flat tires, anyway," the crowd asks (Clarence prefeis to remain silent, but Harry doesn't). "And what of two hours of anxious waiting- for the rest of the crowd," ask Miss Myers, Jo, and d i e t when flnully at 2:30 the bus arrived at the foot of Multnomah Falls which came tumbling down to the depths below to greet the early morning visitors.
Larch Mountain—my, my!—some hill. Four hours later, after six and one-half long, weary, winding miles of rocky trail strewn with numerous chocolate bar wrappeis and orange peelings had been t'aveised, a few of the crowd became thoroly conscious of what "Larch" Mountain" really meant. My, what a mountain!
"Have some—er—coffee?" cordially invites Clarence.
"Coffee, did you say? Er—no, thanks." The trail homeward was not at all
difficult to follow after Harry and Sandy had so expertly blazed the trail with such appetizing articles of pastry as cake, sandwiches, and oranges. Sure enuf, at the end of the journey were found Mike and Denny, quite break-fastless, but still very well capable of holding the bus down.
"Hey Gary, wake up!" "Why, Winnie's gone to sleep!" "Oh-h-h-h BOY! My feet!" etc. Such were the exclamations heard
as Clarence herded the busload of sleepy (sleeping) hikers safely buck home.
In retrospect, we would say that this tiip certainly proved to be an excellent appetizer for final examinations. But anj way, as Gene would say, here's to bigger and better Larch Mt. trips— anil softer logs along the way.

ness" by Wood. She was accompanied at the piano by Pauline Terrell. After the singing, two lovely poems which were written for Miss Binford by her friend, Mrs. D. W. Michener of New York City, were read by Mrs. Russell Thorn'burg. Then after a brief period of silence and a few appropriate remarks by Rev. Gervas A. Carey, Friends minister from Seattle, the couple stept forward and took their marriage vows after the manner of Friends. They were then pronounced husband and wife.
Immediately after the ceremony, the happy couple clambered into their super-laden Ford and sped quickly away in the direction of Iowa where they intend to spend the summer and the coming year.
these notables were: Chief Nuisance, Chief Never-too-late, Chief Delaware, Chief Polka Dot, Chief Delicate and Chief Arrowhead. Jokes, old and new, were shot to right and left, causing various degrees of hilarity, and in some cases, consternation. However, the pow wow ended in perfect peace with the singing of the college song, after which each chief, in company with his squaw, returned solemnly to his respective wigwam.
