PHILOMATHEANS DISCUSS
MILITARY TRAINING
At the regular meeting on Friday
evening, Oct. 31, the Phils debated
the following question: "Resolved,
That the United States should adopt
a policy of compulsory military
training in its colleges."
The affirmative was upheld by
Misses Ethith Macon and Ida Willis
Thompson, while the negative was
upheld by Misses Ethyle Yenable
and Sobelia Williams. The sociei.,,
was very proud of the spirit and
"pep" that thet debaters showed.
Miss Thompson deserves special
mention because of her speech in
defense of the affirmative. The
judges decided in favor of the af
firmative.
Miss Vera Farlow gave a discus
sion on "Who is John J. Pershing
and What Has He Done?"
The third number given by Miss
Mary Dixon was entitled "The Great
est Force That Won the War." This
was interesting as veil as instruc
tive. Miss Dixon showed how much
had been accomplished during the
war by electricity.
The last number, "Selections of
the Latest Current Poetry," was
given in an interesting way by Miss
Myrle Cox. Miss Cox stated that
current poetry was of two kinds,
that written on Nature and that
pertaining to the war.
The chairman of the executive
committee proposed a plan to run a
contest for six weeks. The plan
which was adopted after discussion
provided that the society should be
divided into groups and each group
should plan its own programs.
After a critic's report by Miss
Mariam Mendenhall the society ad
journed.
MRS. DAVIS LEADS Y. W. C. A.
"The Fuller Life" was the sub
ject of Mrs. Davis' beautiful and
helpful talk to the girls on Thurs
day evening last.
Holiness of mind and soul is very
closely connected with healthfulness
of body. Let not the body retard
the mind and soul, for they can
never rise to the greatest height un
less they are supported by a strong,
body.
Jesus came that we might have
fuller and more abundant life, and
He wishes us to make our lives full
in the truest sense. When He was
on earth He cared for the physical
life. He healed many who were
sick. He cares for the physical that
it may co-operate with the spiritual
life.
A girl who has sound health of
body, mind and spirit is of sound
judgment, and credits others with
purity and good judgment until she
is convinced of th v contrary. She
will not look down upon one who
has not had the advantages which
she has, neither will she feel ill at
ease in the company of her supe
riors—that is, those who are better
educated than she.
While in college girls should de
vote their time to their assigned
work, should make friends by show
ing themselves friendly, and be true
to every trust. Development of the
mind makes life fuller in every re
spect. Wisdom teaches the best use
of what we know. There need be no
fear for the future if the mind and
heart be pure.
Are we true to ourselves, or do
we yield to our besetting sin? By
yielding we dwarf our lives and
souls. Even though we may regret
our misused powers, we cannot help
the consequence. Let us now, to
day, consider the trend of our lives.
Let us ask ourselves if the lives we
are leading will lead us to the wo
manhood we are seeking, or will
lead us downward. Bach girl has
her own responsibility. She may
lay the foundation for a cleaner,
more abundant life if she so wills.
