Both teams fought back and forth from start to finish. Sidney Winslow and Edwin Rozell creditably put forth the negative argument on the question, "Resolved, That North Carolina should have an educational test as a qualification for voting," but the unceasing contention of the affirmative speakers, Charles Co ble and Luther Francis, won the unani mous decision.

IT'S A POOR JOKE— When some woman blushes with em barrassment. When some heart carries away an ache. When something sacred is made to appear common. When a man's weakness provides the cause for laughter. When profanity is required to make it funny. When a little child is brought to tears. When everyone can't join in laugh- THE GUILFORDIAN Departmental Nights BIOLOGY DEPARTMENT HAS AN INTERESTING PROGRAM The Biological department, under the direction of Miss Eva Campbell, pre sented the second departmental pro gram in Memorial hall Wednesday night. The numbers of the program were directed toward an explanation of the importance of biological facts to mankind. Alma Hassell appeared first on the program and gave a short sketch of the history of biology. Under the topic of Agriculture French Holt explained soil inoculation, the course of nitrates in the soil and in jurious insects. Evelyn Braxton spoke 011 the food supplies of the United States, especially the work of the fish hatcheries in con serving fish and marine farms. The propagation of diseases such as malaria, bubonic plague, yellow fever, and sleeping sickness by insects, was discussed by Floyd Pate. Henry Tew explained the sources of community. Raymond Ebert spoke of the uses of toxin, anti-toxin and typhoid vaccine. After the program there was a short social at which apjiles, animal crack ers and cocoa were served. The botany students were allowed to indulge their propensity for identify ing leaves in a game of identifying vegetables leaves. A peanut hunt by "animal" teams finished up the eve ning with a bang. ON THE TRAIN GOING AWAY. By Geneva Highfill I am going away. I am 011 a train cutting through fog and dreary spaces; I am leaving the people I know best— I am going away. Across from me sits an old lady; She is dressed in black. She watches out the window And holds her little purse tightly in her hand. I wonder where she came from, where she is going. There is a sad look in her eyes, The wrinkles tell she has lived long and experienced much. The years will pass and I shall be old And wear black and look out a window And long for faces and things that are not. Behind me a bunch of college girls Laugh and talk of college things That I have known— That are behind me now. But I am going away— I am alone— I am going into new experiences. Around me are men with evil faces; I do not like to look at them— And men buried behind newspapers. We stop at stations and more college girls and boys get 011 the train, Laughing and talking. A little gray moth lias been riding 011 the window beside me. It is so small— I wonder where it will go. T wonder why we are hurrying so, VVe just passed a wood with a winding little path I should love to stop and ramble through— But I am going away. ' We are crossing a river that is flowing 011 and on. Now we are rushing through a dirty little station, With coal piles and old, old houses, And an old negro with a rickety wagon And a bony white horse. There is a field of golden-rods Standing out bright against the fog. We are rushing on through fog and spaces, The old, old lady, the laughing girls, the men with evil faces And the little moth 011 the window sill. All coming from the Inane, Back into the Inane— Just a short run through fog and dreary spaces. SOPHS WIN OUT IN CLASS HOCKEY MEET (Continued from Page One) Gamble; C. 11., Hammond; R. F., Kim rey; L. F., King. Substitutes are Barnes, Edgerton, M. Neal, Zaehary, Paul. Soccer begins for a reality this week and approximately all of the girls are going out for it. Although this sport has not been introduced at Guilford heretofore, there is considerable inter est being taken in it. It cannot be prac ticed very long on account of the fast approaching cold weather, but it will serve as an incentive for more interest in girls' athletics in the future. ►+* FREDERIC SAINTY IS GUEST AT GUILFORD (Continued from Page One) . Word reached Germany that Quakers were giving aid to German soldiers in England, and 011 one occasion the Ger mans sent a message to the Quakers to leave a certain locality in order that they might bombard that place, but the Friends ignored the warning and were not harmed. 111 his concluding remarks the visit ing Friend stated that since the war, due to the increase in the number of conscientious objectors, some of whom were soldiers, the Society of Friends in England has within recent years been making a marked growth.
