Senior-Goldmasquers
Plan To Give A Play
The Goldmasquers in collabor
ation with the senior class will
present “The Land is Bright”
written by George S. Kaufman and
Edna Ferber. It will be presented
around the lirst week in February
It is the true story of a nation
that came up from a wilderness
■ to the world’s leading nation.
In the first generation (1890)
Lacey Kincaid has run a pick-ax
into a two hundred million dollar
fortune. He cheats his partners,
steals a railroad, builds a red
plash mansion, and, bent on out
shining the Goulds, the Astors, and
the Vanderbilts. marries his
daughter to a decadent count.
The second generation of Kin
caids still believes that “there is
nothing that money can’t fix.” A
daughter has become a European
wastrel. A son has become a die
hard reactionary. Among the
grand-children are a philanderer
and a consort of gangsters. Mem
bers of the third generation
(1941) under impact of national
crisis, rededicate their lives to the
country that gave them their
wealth.

Students Hear
Catholic Leader
Father John Madden, instructor
in sermon composition at the Cath
olic University, was guest speaker
at an SA devotional prior to the
holidays.
Father Madden spoke on the
North Carolina motto, “To Be
Rather Than To Seem.” He said
that this motto bespeaks the truth,
and could guide a person’s whole
life since it seems to include every
virtue. Pretense can lead to in
gratitude, and lack of gratitude
is a great fault in modern times.
He said that cultivation of grati
tude is something to be urged in
the modern student, and he ap
pealed to the students to stand by
the motto. He added that kindness
can lead people away from pre
tense, and toward God.
Father Newman, of S. Mary’s
Catholic church in Goldsboro, in
troduced the speaker.
Before the talk, Eloise Balk-
cum sang Schubert’s “Ave Maria,”
accompanied by Patsy Donnell.
Florence Bowden, chairman of
the devotional committee, was in
charge of the devotional.
