4 ZATASIAN-WEBSTERI AN RECEPTION. On Friday evening, Oct. 23rd, all was excitement among the Websterians. It was the Zatasian reception, so every Web. was on hand early and when the bell tapped we were on our way to the Zatasian Ilall. At the door we were met by the marshal and two assistants who gave to each boy a program on which was his name and that of his partner. The pro grams were neatly arranged in the shape of the Websterian pin with their colors and symbols emblaz oned on it. The hall was beauti fully decorated. Festoons of sil ver and blue swung from each coi ner of the hall to the center, fern a were tastefully arranged around the room, Websterian and Zatas ian pennants hung on the walls, while autumn leaves were scatter ed about in profusion. The lirst number on the program was an instrumental duet, ''Mili tary March —Shubert," which was excellently rendered by Misses Pi>: and Payne. Miss Copeland then entertained us with a paper on the life of -John Charles McNeil, in which she gave us a vivid picture of this poetic youth in his early surroundings; there, with the beautiful around him, he developed his love for Na ture, which later gave him the power to describe it so beautifully. The next number was a solo, "0 That We Two Were Maying" Nevin, by Miss Tuthill. Miss Taylor's newspaper, in which all the affairs of the college received especial attention was greeted by shouts of laughter. Miss Elizabeth Holten then con vinced us by her charming recita tion that things went right "'tause she was 'dood." The next number on the pro gram which had been especially ar ranged for our entertainment was a debate, "Resolved, That the Fac ulty of this College should encour age love matches." Miss Geslain upheld the affirmative, while the negative was defended bv Miss Ed wards. Much good argument was advanced on both sides, but the sympathy of the audience was clearly with the affirmative, so the decision naturally fell that way. Miss Outland then continued the program by her splendid recitation "In the Usual Way." Misses l)ix, Speas and Pike sang "Lore's Ritornela," ending the pro gram for the evening. Miss Culler, as president, made a short speech welcoming us to PATRONIZE ADVERTISERS. SUBSCRIBE FOR GUILFORDIAN. tlieir hall, then the society ad journed for a social hour.

A friend of mine and 1 happen ed to visit Guilford College last week ami we were very much in terested to find out something of the life and customs of the stu dents there. They are very prom! of their college and they seemed especially anxious to make good impressions on us. One morning one of the students invited us up to their well ap pointed library so, having nothing belter to do we decided to go over and look at the papers. Well! we went in but we saw at once that all the papers were taken by a crowd of home boys. Thinking that instead of remaining perched up on those forbidding knees the/ would be put back on the rack in a few minutes, we waited. How ever, the papers stayed where ihey were as long as we stayed whe 3 we were. They may be there yet we don't know. There is a lesson in that for us fellows! It makes no difference how nice our Library is, or how well we play tenuis, no body is going to carry away a good impression of our college we act courteously towards them. This is just a little article thai it seems to me Conred or Hale would be justified in writing to the Lenoir monthly, that's all!! ALUMNI NOTES. Mr. Henry A.
