Accordingly, our morning devotional periods have been fitting and appropriate services whereby we may keep in closer communion with God as well as in closer communication with the activi ties and situations wlticli beset our fellow-man.

We have learned of foreign lands and unusual customs, of new fields of occupations for women, of political situations and prohibition issues, of the history, stories, and traditions of Salem, but, perhaps more important than any of this knowledge, we have come to know such interesting personalit'es as Mrs. Patterson, Parson Moss, Miss Fries, Dr. Gordon, and Dr Woodliouse.

Tomorrow I will live, the fool does say; Today itself’s too late; the wise lived yesterday. Marcus Valerius Martialis Poets’ Corner THOSE SILLY POEMS ve read those silly poems. And about all that they contain Is a lot of silly words Tliat always mean Je t’ aime. ve read them over and over; I’ve read tliem night and day. And all that I can see Is ego amo te. I could have burnt those silly poems And gone to you and said: “I know what’s in all of them— It’s Ama a usted.” This is another silly poem; I am ashamed of this one too. I could have written just tlus: I love vou dear, I do. A SONG FROM SORROW So beautiful that otlier griefs ; but listen, silently and long, I pro lised will PARAGRAPHICS A member of tlie English faculty has recently been stealing Mr. Campbell’s five-minute-quiz habit. We thought he had a copyright on that mania. bring him peace. One clear high note of faith note of cheer. And one of courage flung against But not one tremulous low note of fear, And not one muted agonizing cry. Oh, I shall make my song a thing of light The darkness only can put forth So out of sorrow, deeper than the night, A song sliall lift that men will liear afar. And listening with faces, eager, glad. Will say, “Where is the sorrow that we had?” Intercollegiate News At the recent meeting of the Vir ginia Legislature, the State Teach- College at Fredericksburg, Va., lived $173,000. The present plan for tlie use of the money is to add anotlier wing to the Virginia Hall Dormitory, turn the entire of the Frances Willard Dormitory into rooms for girls, and to provide a w kitchen and dining hall. The Legislature appropriated $3,- '7,950 capital outlays for State in institutions. Out of this amount $3,05.5,500 goes to tht following in stitutions; William and Mary, Vir ginia Medical College, University of Virginia, V. P. I., V. M.

C., administered a swift kick to W. C. Huband, State Col lege student, when he made a “sassy” remark regarding Miss Spencer’s typing in the college newspaper. It s said also that the co-ed used Web- iter’s Collegiate Dictionary extrav agantly.

Spring football seems to be gain- g in popularitJ^ Regular prac- ;e for this sport has already begun the University of Virginia. This practice is open to all men regard less of experience. It is the inten- the coach, Mr. Abell, to stress above all the fundamentals of football, not the actual training. The workouts are made as light as sible so tliat the participants not become tired of the game. A tournament is now being held at King College, Bristol, 'Penn., by the College Chess Club. Every mem her of the club is eligible to play; each participant will play every other member of the club sometime during the month of February. A silver cup witli proper inscriptions will be awarded tlie winner of the most games. Several members of the club have already removed dusty books from likely-looking shelves and desks in order to have a place to put tlie cup!

He, garbed in picturesque costume, re cited to a large audience some of his poems, “To Elizabeth” (his aunt), “He Tok Up Golf,” “Just Hanging’ Around,” and “The Same Old Face.” This interesting poet travels around to various schools in his high-pow ered motorcar, Elizabeth. He has 10 permanent residence. “I have the lame home as have the foxes of the field or the birds of the air,” he How we would like to publish a little farce, a fetching burlesque on George Washington!

A word might well be said to D) Rondthaler in appreciation for the excellent chapel services which he has prepared for us during this year. Not only in the Wednesday expanded chapel exercises, but ah in the daily chapel services, have we found inspiration and instruction upon various subjects which may oi may not have been relative to col lege life, but have certainly per tained to the broadening of the range of Christian living. In our case chapel exercises have attained their aim which is to fur nish daily a little “food for thought’ “TO- Students at King College, besides oting on the most handsome, the nost reserved, the best student, etc., this year have also voted on tlie fol lowing statistics: most hateful, mo noisy, biggest cheat, most idiot: most limber, biggest cake-eatc :test daddy, biggest hull-slingf biggest baby, most lovesick, biggest ■rab, biggest liar, most annoy' most innocent, dummest sap, biggest simp, most dumbly foolish, most nery, and absolutely zero.

These are designed by the girls in the Home Economics 7 class, taught by Mrs. Meinung. Each girl in the class has a different type of girl to design for.

The well-known Carolina Play- makers performed last Saturday night at Converse College, Spartan burg, S. S. An editorial in The Converse Parley Voo sums some sentiments which are well worth noting: The Carolina Play- makers form a Southern institution as widely known outside of the South as any other Southern insti tution. They are putting the South on the map by interpreting South ern life and character to the world. Your Favorite CANDY BARS and CHEWING GUM 3 10c THE GREAT ATLANTIC & PACIFIC TEA CO.
