As can be seen the response so
far has hardly been as hearty us
usual. The total number of fees
paid this year is seventy-three of
which eleven are from last year's
class. Last year one hundred and
six members of the Association re
sponded, so that it is obvious that
we are falling behind our former
record. It is therefore hoped thnt
those who have not paid their fees
will do so at an early date.
The programs for Alumni Day.
which is scheduled for May 31st.
have recently been sent to the
Alumni and it is hoped that quite
a large number will be present to
take part in the exercises. All
the Alumni should be interested
in the play "portraying the ele
ments and influences operative ir
the growth of. Guilford College,"
which is to he presented at
o'clock in the afternoon of Alumni
day by the Senior class.
F'HILOMATHEAN CONTEST.
On Saturday evening. May 15th.
at 8 o'clock the Philomathean Lit
erary Society held its seventh an
nual oratorical contest in Memo
rial Hall. The following program
was rendered to an appreciative
audience:
Piano Solo—Bertha Fox.
Xo i •] i ]>ors—Al a I eta Macon.
The Essentials of Progress—
(Millie Lewis.
Mt. Mitchell, and the Man for
Wliom it Was Named—Kutli Ool
trane.
Solo —Beloved it is Morn—Ayl
worth, by Mrs. Ourriev Briggs.
The Decline of Self Ownership
—Totten Moton.
Backward or Forward? — Ellen
Kaiford.
Duet —Uii. Lovely Night—from
Talcs of Ilotfman, by Mr. and Mrs.
(Jurney Briggs.
The judgt for the ovoniuj* were
Miss Gertrude Mendenhall, of
Greensboro, Mr. William A. lilair
and Mrs. Howard 10. Rondthaler,.
of Winston-Salem. Mr. Blair, af
ter n delightful speech, presented
the prize, which consisted of the
complete poetical works of eight,
of the standard American and
English poets, to Miss Until Col
trane, who delivered a very inter
esting oration on Mt. Mitchell,
and the man for whom it was
named.
All of the young ladies deserve
a great deal of praise for the cred
itable nmniK-r in which they de
livered their oration and we can
truthfully s;iy that these are girls
of whom the l'liilomathean Soci
ety is and should be proud.
It is very difficult to try to tell
how much 11 >t* music added to the
program. The piano solo by Miss
Fox was ve'-y well rendered indeed
and all (iuilfordians know how
Mr. and Mis. liriggs always de
light their hearers by their sing
ing and on tliis occasion they sus
tained their former reputation.
MUSIC NOTES.
(Continued from Page three).
gance, the warmth and delicacy,
the dignity and reverence of this
exquisite composition.
The Hymn to Ceres is a very
lively and picturesque poem,
smooth and flowing in its language
but it is nor equal in beauty to the
three Hymns already mentioned.
The picturesqueness of the
li i/iii>i to Hacelnts is remarkable
and the language is beautiful.
Prof. Law ton, of Bryn Mawr,
-ays an acquaintance with the
Homeric Hymns is not only to be
recommended to all students for
th e sake of the fine poetry they
contain, but also because they pre
sent many of the mythological fa
bles of rhe (ire°ks, and from them
abo one 1.-arns the character of
Hymns hav not received adequate
lTymnsiiave >iot received adequate
attention. Surely they deserve
something better than the neglect
with which they are ordinarily
treated in schools and at colleges.
Translations by Prof. Lawton
are to be found in our library.
