"What if this is the last night of college What if our diplomas are all concealed in the tops of our top trays Can't this crowd be original enough to smile a little on our last evening, instead of looking like a country prayer-meeting?" The Infant cast herself upon the cushionless frame of a Morris armchair, and grinned at the forms on the packing-boxes around her. Her eyes roved round the disorderly room, stripped of the pretty portieres, cushions, mandolins, and posters, which are as inevitably a part of a college suite as the curriculum is a part of the college itself. Even the Infant suppressed a sigh as she caught sight of the trunks outside in the corridor.
