Louise White gave some excellent advice on how the old girls may in le:e-t the new girls in society work. ! Ethel Pamperin gave some helpful sug gestions for the improvement of the j society. Music for the evening was furnished by Alice Thompson who gave as an i instrumental solo "The Sea King's Bride." The program ended with the song "Hail, Dear Old Guilford," by the society. Since the regular secretary did not I i return. Chandos Kimrey was elected j J to serve in that office. HENRY CLAYS PRESENT INTERESTING PROGRAM j The Henry Clay Literary Society ; ' started the year Friday night with a lively discussion of the question, Re j solved; that. Congress should establish 1 an independent department of air ser vice, with financial support equal to that given the United States navy, j French Smith and Sydney Winslow set forth the merits of the resolution and offered as the main argument in its support, the weakness of warships in coast defense and the efficiency with j which airplanes could do the work I'hey also showed how much more j cheaply the defense could be carried out. Elton Outland and Byron Ha worth were successful in defending the negative. They based their argument upon the ground that, since airplane J service is very necessary to the navy, i j and since the air service is still in a | state of experiment, it should yet be kept subordinate to the navy depart ment. I Ed Mcßane, B. R. Branson and I William Blair, all ex-Clay, were j ; present and addressed the meeting. A I large number of freshmen visitors were also present and made brief speeches. I Theodore Doub, an old Clay, was re ; instated, and Walter Mears and French Holt, both new members, were wel- I coined into the society. WEBSTERIANS DISCUSS ANTI EVOLUTION BILL For the first meeting of the year, | the Vi ebsterians had a very lively and ' j spirited debate. The query was: "Re j solved; that, the legislature of Ten nessess was justified in passing the j anti-evolution bill." Tfie affirmative j speakers were Wilmer Steele and j Charles Weir, while the negative was i ably upheld by Paul Swanson and i\\ alter Robertson. The affirmative argued that the passing of the bill was j I within the rights of the state and there- j fore constitutional; that the evolution ! ary hypothesis is not a proved scienti fic fact and that attends to cause a loss of faith in Cod and the immortalitv of the soul if followed to its logical conclusion. The negative contended j that the law interfered with a man's personal liberty; that it hindered education and forced upon some indivi j duals the religious views of others. The society enjoyed some original ; and witty jokes, as presented by Elton j Warrick. At the close of the literary j program, Lee Richardson, who has been absent from the society for two years, , was re-instated as a member. Many j new students were present and made brief speeches expressing an interest I in literary society work. RECEPTION TO FRESHMEN (Continued from page 1.) j and the customary feature of collect i ing names was carried out. I The punch bowls just outside the library, proved a source of satisfaction i to the crowd and the dispensers were ; kept busy until a late hour. | In lieu of a moon, the electric , lights made the campus very attractive i for couples who were inclined to promenade. In addition to the present student j body, there were many alumni and old ! students present as well as friends j of the college. THE GUILFORDIAN | To Our Readers: j } We take space in this first issue of The Guilfordian for the school * # year to call your attention to our advertisers. The manager has 9 f tried to fill the advertising space with the advertisements of re- M % putable concerns, and we believe a careful perusal of our adver- M u tising columns will bear out the statement that every concern m m represented is reliable and a leader in its line. We wish to call ■ fi the attention of our readers, and especially the students, to the C fact that The Guilfordian is made possible only through the ad- m ■ vertising patronage we receive. The merchants advertising in m Jr The Guilfordian should get value received for every dollar they ■ M invest in advertising in our oolums. They will do this if every m 1 reader will make it a point to look up these firms when buying M ■ in their line. Our advertisers are among the oldest and most M % reliable firms in the city and when you patronize them you are ■ m assured of a square deal and courteous treatment. Show them ■ C your appreciation. Tell it to them by patronage. m m Beware of agents who come to the campus. They take all and: ■ W leave nothing. m I The Business Manager 1 Among the largest one-man shovels in the world is this ■= electric giant engaged in open-pit mining on the Mesabi Range in northern Minnesota It picks up eight cubic yards of iron ore at a gulp, which it dumps into a waiting car. -—^ A day's work in a minute In every branch of mining operations G-E equipment is very much in evidence. And there are engineers of the General Electric Company especially assigned to mining problems and requirements, just as there are others special izing in all major applications of electricity. A new series of G-E advertise ments showing what electricity is doing in many fields will be sent on request. Ask for book let GEK-1 GENERAL ELECTRIC GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY, SCHENECTADY, NEW YORK Mesabi Range, renowned iron ore deposit, is yield ing its mineral wealth at the rate of 16 tons for every bite of an electric scoop. A man with a shovel would work a whole day to mine and load eight cubic yards of iron ore which this 300-ton electric giant moves in one minute. Of course, all mining is not done on the surface. But there are many mines in which electricity has changed our conception of mining operations. Wires, pene trating even to the deepest shafts and galleries, have brought light, power, ventilation and added safety to those who must work in the very bowels of the earth. Electricity s contribution to mining may be of partic ular interest to the student of mining engineering, but it is of general interest to all college men as still another example of how electricity is simplifying the world's work.
