On Thursday evening the
Council of the Woman’s Ath
letic Association of Gardner-
Webb College entertained in
the dining hall with a party
complimenting the members
of the association.
Guests were greeted at the
door by the president and
were presented with a book
let containing general infor
mation concerning the organ
ization. Then they were
directed to the refreshment
table which was covered
with an unusual lace table
cloth (tennis net). The center
piece was an artistically ar
ranged bouquet of badminton
rackets, baseball bats, hockey
sticks, tennis rackets and ar
chery arrows. Tiny black and
red W. A. A. pennants adorn
ed this arrangement. On
either side of the table were
triple candelabra (red bricks
holding red and black
candles).
Smaller tables throughout
the dining room were center
ed with unique arrangements
of assorted ' sports equip
ment and the guests enjoyed
a coup of cocoa, assorted
cakes, served from tennis
racket trays, and nuts, served
from ball glove cups. Those
serving were the W. A. A.
council members who were
attired in various sports cos
tumes. Music was provided
during the refreshment per
iod. *
Miss Margaret Eoherts of
Shelby, president of the W.
A. A., welcomed the group.
In turn, functions of the or
ganization were discussed by
the council.
After a word from the
sponsor, Miss Dorothy Smith,
lights were lowered and
blankets were spread around
a make-belief camp fire, the
setting for the singing of
familiar melodies.

CHURCH SCHOOL
RELATIONSHIP
Gardner-Webb College is
extending its ministry to the
churches of this section. In
June, W. Lawson Allen came
to the college as director of
church-school relationships.
His chief duty is to promote
a friendly atmosphere among
the churches and to extend
the service of the college to
the last church that needs
and wants it. The college trus
tees and faculty feel that the
college has a definite respon
sibility to the church because
it is from them that the fin
ancial support of current ex
penses is coming now and
must continue to come. The
college has little endowment
and wants no sum set up to
be invested as an endowment.
It is the earnest desire of the
college that it may be worthy

WHAT MAKES THE
WORLD OVER?
Some soldiers came crawl
ing into a Y. M. C. A. hut
one day during the World
War. Half the squad had been
killed; very soon there were
loving hands giving them hot
coffee; and the padre was
there doing his best; it was
difficult in those days to say
anything.
And the padre, for the sake
of saying something said,
“Never mind, boys, you are
making a new world.”
And one of the soldiers
looked up and said, “No,
padre, we are not doing that.
That’s your business. We are
smashing up the old.”
There was something tre
mendous in that. Those poor
chaps knew that they were
smashing up the old world,
but they were looking to the
padre of the church to build
up the new world.—Watch-
