All rlie world is going crazy on
tlie subject of. cross-word puzzles.
'J'lie chief rccreatioii at present is
the solving of cross-word puzzle.s.
'I’his is a very profitalile pastime
and a very fascinating problem.
Aside from gaining untold pleasure
peojile enlarge and develop the vo

not exempt from the mob who arc
cross-word puzzle crazy. Every

the Raleigh Tiincft, which is con
tributed to each student by business
firms of tlic city each evening.
Groat good may come from these
problems and doubtless great pleas
ure is being derived.
The list of the rooms which were
the most perfecitly kept last month
is printed in this i.ssue. The list
is unusually large wbieh means that
the girls are gaining in pride. Your
room is your home for the largest
part of the year, so why not make
it wortliy of your name. The list
should be one Imiulred per cent,
pifti'en minutes a day will keep

WIIEItE IS THE EDITOllt
The following requirements for a
model editor of a college paper came
out in a late Issue of The Old Gold
and Black: “A college editor should
be a superman endowed with the pa
tience of Job. the editorial ability of
Horace Greely, the managing and di
recting ability of Charles Schwab, the
diplomacy of Woodrow Wilson, tbe
judicial qualities of former Chief
Justice Marshall; he needs the keen
humor of Lincoln, the dignity and
philosophy of 'Socrates, the agnostic
tendencies of Ingersoll; he should have
the literary ability of Shakespeare,
and the lack of conscience of Amy
Lowell.
“In addition to these few qualifica
tions, he needs tlie physique of Jack
Dempsey, the nerve of a hold-up man,
and Edison’s ability to do without
sleep. His brain should be so consti
tuted that he could absorb the essen
tials of a twenty-credit course by
means of the barest perusal of the
subjects contained, and to pass the
linal exams with honors so that the
faculty will respect him and allow
him to stay in school. He should be
absolutely foreign to the needs of rest,
sleep, eating, recreation, the love of
society, the Inclination Cor glory In
athletics and love.
“Having these few requirements, he
should be able to qualify as a fairly
competent editor, and there is a pos
sibility that he should not be handled
on the faculty carpet more than oncc
a week and kicked by the student
body in general more than twice a
dav.”—Hiiriin .-11i)haomf!in.

girls are greatly indcdited for the
wonderful message.s iind for the in-
spiriition and teachings which they
have received by attending the serv-
ict;s conducted by Dr. iladdry. Seri
ous thinking along these lines should
be the outcome and attempts to live
tbe Christian life. The prayer
meetings held in the different rooms
among the girls were helj)ful and
fended to bring the girls together.
