Page 4 PHILOMATHEANS ENJOY MISCELLANEOUS PROGRAM A very interesting feature of the Philomathean literary society program Friday evening was the debate: Re solved, That, the denominational col leges offer opportunities for better train ing than do state institutions. Ruby Hall succeeded in upholding the nega tive although Alma llassel put up very strong argument fori the affirmative. Maude Simpson by her vivid descrip tion of the mountaineer of Western North Carolina, carried her hearers into the isolated mountain homes and introduced them to the mountaineer and his family. The somewhat humorous Who's Who in the Philomathean liter ary society by Doris Tew was listened to with a good deal of eagerness and the hearty applause which followed showed just how glad every one was to know "Who's Who?" GDILFORD OF AULD LANG SYNE REVIEWED GY ZAYS The Zays enjoyed propably the best program of the term Friday night, the subject being "Guilford." "Guilford of the Past," was the opening number. In this paper, well written and interest ingly read by Olive Crow, the society members heard former rules and cus tomes which made them feel glad, in deed, that those times are passed. The second number was, '"Present Day Guilford," by Ghita Tuttle, and was a striking contrast to the preced ing number. Lucille Moore next gave an interest ing reading, "The Spirit of Loyal Guil fordians." A scene taken from present day life on Guilford campus, by Flay Vuncan non, Norine Burkhead, Gertrude Moore and Doris Joyner gave a humorous touch to the program. The sixth number, "Guilford of the Future," which contained things, pos sible, through the realized imaginations by Ailene Beeson, was much enjoyed. As an appropriate conclusion, the society sang, "Alma Mater." WEBSTERIANS FEATURE MISCELLANEOUS PROGRAM The Websterian hall was the scene of a lively and heated debate on Friday, March 13. It was supposed to be an all around unlucky date and day, bue not so with the program which was ex cellent in every respect. The question for debate was: Resolved, that, Congress shauld provide for the maintainance of a navy of at least its present size."Joe Welborn and Paul Swanson ably de fended the negative but lost the decision of the judges because of Wilmer Steele's and John Hughes' stronger and more practical arguments which were pre sented in a very forceful and convinc ing manner. The society next listened to many current events well given by Walter Robertson. The last number on the program Was entitled "The Spice of Life, and ren dered very ably by Elton Warrick. It was especially humorous and was en joyed by all. The futures of nearly all present were forecast amid the numer ous and prolonged outbursts of laugh ter. New officers were installed at this time. The officers for the present term will be Elton Warrick, president; Mil lard Allen, Vice-president; Raymond Eibert, secretary; Charles Weir, assis tant secretary; Paul Swanson, marshall. NATIONAL ISSUE DEBATED BY HENRY CLAY SOCIETY Although greatly reduced in numbers on account of the Glee club concert, the Henry Clay socifty staged one of its best programs of the year. The debate: Resolved, that Congress should be em powered to override by two thirds vote the decisions of the Supreme Court de claring an act of Congress unconstitu tional, was hotly contested. Ira Newlin and Charlie Friddlei. made excellent speeches for the affirmative, but were overcome by the stronger argument of the negative, represented, by Morris Trotter and Waited Beck. Each debate showed careful preparation and were de livered in a forceful manner. Alonzo Kussel read a paper on Thom as Jefferson which invited much favor able comment from society members. WARRICK, FRAZIER AND TEW LEAD Y. M. C. A. Y.M.C.A. on March 12 was turned over to the "Old South" section of Cox hall. A goodly number of its occupants were present giving their support to their leaders who were Warrick, Tew and Frazier. The meeting was started with, a prayer by Harrell. Warrick, the first speaker on the program, next took the floor and took "Religion" as his sub ject. He showed that religion of some sort is one of the essential things in the life of all human beings and has been down through the ages. Most Americans are of the Christian religion and it has been a benefit and blessing to us in many ways throughout our history and life as a nation. "Faith" was then ably discussed by Tew. We must have faith in ourselves and in others also. This quality should be in us because it is absolutely neces sary to our success and happiness. Ev erlasting and simple, pure faith in God and Christ should be ours also upon which we can rest all of our burdens and troubles. Mr. Frazier closed the meeting by a few words on the power and importance of earnest conscientious prayer. We should pay more attention to this sacred means of communication with God. By this method we should put in the hands of God all our difficulties and all our problems, trusting him to give us the proper and satisfactory solutions. When we pray we have within us more con fidence, more sympathy for our fellow men, more kindness, and more energy than ever before. Mr. Frazier stated that the trouble with most of us is that we don't pray enough and put to our advantage this sorely needed and enormous undeveloped resource. PUBLIC WELFARE WOMAN SPEAKS TO YOUNG WOMEN Under the direction of the Social Se rvice committee, Miss Blanche Carr Slearn, county superintendent of Pub lic Welfare, was the speaker for regu lar Thursday evening Y.W. service. First, Mrs. Steam told the many tasks which came under the head of Public Welfare, namely, enforcement of the compulsory school law, enforcement of the chilr labor law, charity and the juvenile court. Then taking up each task she explained a little more fully how' she went about doing her work and in each incident a real experience was quoted to give a better idea of what happens when parents will not send their children to school because there is nothing in the Bible which commands them to, or parents who want their young son to go to work but who are not able to give his age any better than that "he was born at 'rostin-ear' time." NEW GARDEN SCENE OF SECOND SOCIAL OF YEAR The co-eds enjoyed the second social of the year Saturday evening, at New Carden hall. The spacious dining room was cleared of tables, and that with the reception hall, furnished ample room for the frolicsome many. In spi'.e of the absence of the Glee Club, and about twenty people who are "mumpishly" inclined, there was a gen eral round of merriment. Every boy and girl lent their best efforts in giving everybody else a good time. Many games were enjoyed and among them was the one generally known as "Library." The girls were the books and the boys eager explorers of "good literature." After reading his chosen book for five minutes, he was called on for an oral report. The reports Were sucli as to cause continual laughter and loud applause, but just what was sai 1 well, everything is not meant for the press. Closely following this came the game, "Initials," and many of the boys and girls who have in the past felt a bit uneasy, found to their great relief, that Miss Emma King is an "easy", "kissable" woman.
