IF I COULD GO THRU COLLEGE
AGAIN.
One day while in school at Guil
ford. I overheard a lady say, "That
girl studies all the time." This was
true only to the extent that 1 devoted
a greater part of the study periods to
my text-books, but if I could go thru
college again i would not want to
change that lady's opinion of me. I
would not give less tho to regular
studies but I would give more thot
to outside things.
It was my misfortune to be a day
student and I know what it is to mi£s
many of the good things that the
students who live in the college en
joy. So if I could take my course
over again I would board at one of
the dormitories. By so doing I would
have so much more time to spend in
forming the acquaintance of my fel
low students and to give to the dif
ferent organizations. I would join
one of the literary societies just as
soon as 1 could, and instead of
hoping with all my heart that some
thing would happen so that I would
have to be absent when I was on pro
gram, I would try to be glad when
time came and would give my
best effort to the part assigned me. I
remember only one debate in which
1 took part that I was really inter
ested in, and that one was in regard
to woman suffrage. I would be a
faithful member of the Y. W. C. A.
1 would join the Athletic Association,
but not until I had consulted a com
petent physician to find out just what
form of exercise suited me best. If
1 should have the honor of being
elected to membership in the Science
Club or Literary Club I would attend
the meetings if I had time, but 1
would never undertake more than I
could do reasonably well.
I would again taike the mathemati
cal course, tho I believe it is said to
be the hardest course laid down in
the catalog, and would let the per
sonality of the teacher rather than
the subject guide me in my choice of
electives. I would not take more
than four or five subjects at one time
but I would try to master these. I
would try to make "A" on all the
subjects I studied, not merely for the
sake of getting good grades (tho to
see an "A" on one's report pposite
each subject studied makes one thrill
with a feeling of satisfaction), but to
iorm the habit of being thoro. I
have not changed my mind in regard
to cheating. I would not cheat. By
this I mean that x would not copy
the note book of another person,
neither would I give or receive help
on examination. However, if I could
help other students in any other way
it would be a pleasure to me to help
them and I should expect as much in
return.
I have made a bare outline of what
I would do if I could go thru Guil
ford College agam. I believe that if
it were/ possible for me to turn back
the years and follow this outline I
would more nearly live up to the
motto of my class, "Quod agis, age"
—"Do what you do," and to the
thing for which Guilford stands
"Thoroneaa in everything."

PHILOMATHEANS HAVE SM|ALL
BUT SPIRITED MEETING.
On Friday evening, Felb. 8, the
Philomathean Literary Society held
its regular meeting. Despite the fact
that several Philomatheans were ab
sent the society enjoyed an unusual
ly interesting program.
The first number on the program
was a book review by Totten Moton.
In this Miss Moton held the Philo
matheans spellbound by telling them
in a brief and concise manner, the
story of "Coniston," a book she had
recently read. The society feels
proud of a member who reads so
many good books and is then so
capable of relating the story to oth
ers.
Elsie Clegg amused the girls with
a pleasing recitation, "One, Two,
Three."
Lula liaiford then gave the news
of the week flavored wit.a a few spicy
jokes, which caused every member
to burst forth into laughter and some
even to blush.
The last number, but oy no means
least, was a vocal solo, Ave Maria,
-•harmingly rendered by Naomi Tom
linson. Her sweet voice and pleasing
selections are always appreciated.
It always affords great pleasure to
the Philomathean Society to receive
new members, and when Geneva
Mackie decided to join the ranks of
"The Lovers of Knowledge," last
Friday night, tue hand clapping and
rejoicing showed that f:he had re
ceived a hearty welcome.
After strong and helpful reports
by the critic and the secret critic,
society adjourned.
