uFFICHS INSTALLED AT
LAST PHIL MEETING
The last meeting of the year of the
Philomathean society was a call meet
ing for the purpose of installing the
new officers who were elected at the
last regular meeting. The officers in
stalled were: Lala Cox, president; Elma
Jones, secretary; Julia Maud Conrad,
treasurer, Ruby Hall, marshal.
Although qiute a few members drop
ped out this spring, the society, as a
whole, has done some very good work.
If there is any criticism to be made, it
is that there was not enough time spent
in preparation of the programs and
some of them were lacking in original
ity which is one of the things that the
society tries to attain.
With the very capable officers which
the society has to begin with next year
there is no reason why it should not be
one of the most successful terms in
the history of the society.
SENIOR CLASS HONORS
J. FRANKLIN DAVIS
(Continued from page one)
vis has repeated in chapel and referred
to as a good philosophy of life. It runs:
"One ship drives east and another west
With the selfsame winds that blow;
"fis the set of the sails
And not the gales
j Wtiich decides the way to go.
Like the winds of the sea
As we journey aloag through life,
'Tis the will of the soul
Which decides the goal
\nd not the storm the strife."

ate School, came to Guilford College.
Throughout this period of time he has
served his place as a memoer of the
faculty, and without the slightest hes
itation we proclaim his good name, this
morning, as one who has lined his place
well. In fact we can point to none who
have more valiantly and consistently
filled their place of responsibility than
he has."
In the evening the Alumni Associa
tion gave a supper in honor of Professor
Davis at which Ottis Mendenhall, of
High Point, served as toastmaster. D.
D. Carroll, of the faculty of the Univer
sity of North Carolina, spoke forcibly
on the subject, "J. Franklin Davis, the
Scholar." He briefly reviewed Profes
sor Davis' life. He pointed out the
fact that when he was a student at
Guilford College, he was impressed by
the scholarly bearing of the instructor
whom he had coir.e to honor. But he
! esse.l r. ore the othe.- qua'ilies which
he had, "those virtues which steady and
perfect us in life." "The simplicity
and quiet dignity of my instructor had
great influence on me," he said, "and I
am convinced that he who can't learn
implicity ii the midst of complexity
can never rise to the height of a schol
ar."' In closing his speech, he said, "I
cannot cease to speak of such a person
by only giving a mental tribute of re
spect but I mu't also give a heart's
tribute of love."
The other speakers of the evening
were H. Sinclair Williams, of Concord,
who spoke on "J. Franklin Davis, the
Teacher;" Ell wood C. Perisho, whose
subject was, "J. Franklin Davis, the
Col'eague;" Dr. L. L. Hobbs, whose
topic was. "J. Franklin Davis, a Mem
ber of the Faculty." At the close of
'he program, Professor Davis gave a
very short talk in which he thanked all
who had done him honor in the occa
sion.
