Four The Twig March 27,1980 Vesper Services Held Sunday In Blue Parlor Sunday evening the Y. W. A. vesper service was held in the Blue parlor. At this time Sarah Elizabeth Jenkins conducted a very delightful program. The services were opened by the singing of “Day is Dying in the West,” followed with a prayer by Miss Madaline Elliot. The devotionals were conducted by Nelda Wilson, who read from John 13:32-36, and commented on each verse. Otelia Vaughan sang beautifully, “Until That Day,” accompanied by Mary Currin. Louise MacMillan in her usual charming manner, spoke on “Tolerance.” She presented it well and closed with the fol lowing prayer: God, teach me not to say, “She should” Or ‘‘should not” do something: How can I know the whole of Some one else’s sorrowing? And seeing only part of it, How can I be the Judge— Bent, perhaps, by some one else Who holds a petty grudge? God teach me not to listen to “They say” and “I have heard"— Let me not injure any one By idly spoken word. God, teach me blamelessly to live, And generously, too— And help me always to be fair, And tolerant, and true. Nancv Rioni.EY Ransos. Astro Play, “The Patsy,” Is Successfully Presented (Cmtinuel fr«m pag4 waiting for five years, perhaps, partly because she spent her birthday money for answering an advertisement on “How to become popular,” or because she possessed so much humor, wit, and sympathy as well as a good disposition. The audience lived with her from one episode and entanglement to another, and anxiously watched her get out of each, and ready to start all over again. Mabel has played before, but she was at her best in “The Patsy.” Mary Barber, as the cast-ofC lover, finds the ideal girl in Pa tricia, the younger sister of his first love, played by Mabel Bag- by. Mary didn’t have a fortune, but his interest in psychology, the knowledge of which he im parted to Patricia, won for him the greatest interest of his life. Mary won the admiration of everyone by her natural ability to impersonate a sympathetic, witty, and also noble character. The public was more in sym pathy with Margaret Barfoot and Kitty Makepeace than any others, perhaps, because of the allied spirit of the antagonistic mother and daughter. Each, however, played the part to per fection, although the characters were entirely different from the dispositions of these two girls. Billy Caldwell, played by Dor othy Gillie, was the lucky guy when it came to winning the old er daughter of the Harrington family. Helen Bennett played most ef fectively the part of a friend to Billy, and whose blonde beauty Billy’s fiancee feared. Francis Patrick O’Flaherty, played by Elizabeth Ayscue, was the wise schemer, and a great admirer of Patricia. Her part was most excellently carried out.

NOTES Foreign Service Band Meets On Wednesday afternoon the Foreign Service Band held one of the best meetings of the year. The meeting opened with the singing of “Jesus Calls Us.” Fol lowing a brief devotional, which was led by Gladys Blaylock, Miss Alva Lawrence, the State W. M. U. Young People’s lead er, told in a very interesting way of the W. M. U. Training School in Lousville, Ky. She de scribed briefly the courses which the school offers, and outlined the daily schedule, which all will agree is a very full but very in teresting one. She also told of the recreations and social life, and of the field work which the students do at the good-will cen ter and among the foreigners of the city. In conclusion the group sang “If Jesus Goes With Me.” The meeting was dismissed with prayer, led by Miss Winnie Rickett. There were several vis itors present to hear Miss Law rence.

Also in considering leaders for the religious organizations on the campus the student body sought to choose those who would give of their time toward the success and usefulness of these groups. As B. Y. P. U. president, Velma Preslar has been elected. Sarah Elizabeth Jenkins will stand at the head of the Sunday School depart ment, and Mary Lee of the Y. W. A. Lucile Ward is next year’s president of the Foreign Service Band, while Alma Dark will hold the same office in the Home Service Band. The three girls who have been chosen as the student body cheer leaders, it is felt, have just the personalities, the pep, the vivac ity needed to lead Meredith spir it on next year. They are Ruth Starling, Gaynelle Hinton, and Pat Abernethy.
