EDITORIAL COMMENT
Merry Christmas!
To whom it may concern, greet
ings!
The Guilfordian wishes each of
its readers a merry Christmas and
a very prosperous New Year.
We hope that our students will
take it upon themselves to dismiss
from their minds the grind through
which they have recently been pass
ing and take up that frame of mind
which is conclusive to a real rest.
Fellow students, let us not for
get the fact that we are represent
ing more than ourselves, that we are
representing Guilford and her ideals.
Let us so act that our friends, see
ing our good works, may glorify
our college, Guilford.
The Banquet
Three years ago the student body,
for the first time, enjoyed the hos
pitality of the faculty at a faculty
student banquet.
The speeches were centered
around the endowment campaign
which was being • launched at that
time.
A remarkable spirit of support
was aroused in the student body,
out of which came pledges for
over S4OOO.
Last Saturday was the fourth time
our student body has had this oppor
tunity of discussing problems and
conditions with the faculty, and
the enthusiasm continues to increase.
To say that the banquet on the
16th was a success, is much too
little. Miss Noles arranged a
splendid menu. The dining hall
was very attractively decorated un
der the direction of Mr. Pancoast.
Miss Polk was instrumental in
arranging the program. This part
of the occasion was excellent. The
applause ran highest during the
president's speech when we were
told that the approaching endow
ment campaign was assured of suc
cess by the promise of large do
nations. Come on Guilfordians,
let's go!
MRS. BLAIR IS HOSTESS
TO BREAKFAST PARTY
Mrs. W. C. Blair, of Guilford
College, gave a most charming
breakfast party to Misses Lloyd
Merriman, Hope Motley and Mary
Henley, Saturday, Dec. 16, at 8:30
o'clock. The young ladies, after
college diets, ate heartily of fried
chicken, and hot pancakes.
DR. PERISHO SPEAKS
TWICE AT WINSTON
Dr. E. C. Perisho will leave early
Sunday morning for Winston-Salem,
where he will spend two days. Dur
ing his stay there he will deliver
several lectures in the interest of
Guilford College. The two most im
portant talks will be his addresses
to the Friends Meeting, Sunday
morning, and to the Winston-Salem
high school Monday morning.
While in Winston-Salem, Dr. Per
isho will see a number of Guilford
graduates in reference to their being
present at the Alumni meeting,
which will take place at Guilford,
during the Christmas holidays. He
will also remind them of the impor
tant part they will play in the suc
cess of the Guilford College banquet
for Forsythe county students, which
will take place early in January.
TRAINING OF MIND,
SOUL, AND BODY, TOPIC
FOR Y. M. C. A. MEETING
Development of the mind, soul,
and body was discussed by Clyde
Shore at Y. M. C. A. last Thursday
evening. He said we develop the
intellect by the unhindered use of
our mental powers in all the fields
of knowledge.
The speaker said that for the
best results, we must join religion
and education. The church is the
originator of schools, colleges, and
universities. Great men carry relig
ion and education together.
Dr. Perisho, who spoke next,
quoted from Rev. Timothy Stone of
Chicago, "You cannot get along
very far in life unless your heart
is right."
CLARA COBLE WINS PRIZE
IN ART EXHIBIT

Mrs. Francis C. Anscombe on Fri
day afternoon, December 15, from

Class Visits Furniture
Exposition
The class in house decoration
went to High Point last Wednesday

niture building. Mr. Ralph Parker
conducted the party, pointing out
the furniture of the various periods.
He gave a talk on different kinds of
furniture woods, their production
and finishing.
Christmas Projects

ery I is making the simple candies,

"DO IT FOR GUILFORD"
(Continued frcm paere 1)
tcast by formally presenting to the
college an electric gong syetsm as
a gift from the present senior class.
Dr. Binford closed the banquet
by an address on "business Growth
Growth and the Balance Sheet."
"Are we growing?" he asked.
As an answer he showed the re
markable growth of Guilford as a
college during the past few years.
The faculty which as he put it,
has become worth $36,000 is out
standing because of the fact that
its average teaching experience is
over thirteen years. Guilford this
year has enrolled more students in
its college department than in all
its history.
"But above all," Dr. Binford con
tinued, "the student body this year
is the finest in l ideals and character
ever in attendance at Guilford.
Students leaving Guilford College,"
he added, "are leaving with great
ideals and visions and this brings
pleasure to me, for institutions may
crumble, but if the work is done
well they have not failed."
Du ring the courses musical num
bers were rendered by Miss Beatrice
Byrd, the glee club and the college
orchestra.
"Split Guilford for the facultv,
everybody!"
FACULTY FACTS
And the half year closes with
Joe White answering the call of
the wild. It's back to Pbilly, then
perhaps it's a stag hunt in the
Maine Woods.
Pancoast is out for smaller game.
It's been the feathered birds of
ested him the most in the last
the Greensboro show that has inter
few days.
Baker is defending himself
against the Home Economics sen
iors, who are trying the "back" out
of Bacteriology.
