The Belles of Saint Maky’s
liITTLiE STORE
This year Sylvia Cullum is in charge of the Little
Store on the hottom floor of Smedes Hall. Opening
hours will be the same: little recess, four o’clock in the
afternoon, and after study hall at night. We know that
you will enjoy this privilege, and the STAGE COACH
Staff and the Senior class will appreciate your patron
age.
ANNUAL. CHURCH CANVASS
Sunday Afternoon, a group of girls appointed by Mr.
Guess will make an every member canvass of the school
to determine the amount to he pledged to the church
during the coming school year. These pledges cover not
only the expenses of St. Mary’s chapel, but also the
sum pledged by the school for the foreign mission work
of the church. St. Mary’s does not fix an amount for
each girl to give. We only ask that you give what you
honestly feel that you are able; remember your contri
bution each Sunday, and—we thank you.
HUNTING SEASON OPENS-CANDID CAIMERA
Hunting season has indeed opened, and what the
Annual Staff is after is candid camera shots for the
STAGE COACH.
There’s plentiful game around. What about pictures
of the Big Apple Session or a picture of your room
mate standing on a table, tangled in the curtains she is
trying to put up. Then there are some campus favorites
who for some strange reason have remained unphoto
graphed since they became permanent fixtures at St.
Mary’s: Mr. Shaw, who is responsible for our mail
getting to Chapel Hill, Durham, Wake Forest, and all
points west; Susie (not to be confused with Suzy Q),
who sits in the parlor, and Mr. Scott, and Mr. Brooks.
^‘Shooting” people is fun; no Sherlock Holmes regalia
is necessary; and the Annual definitely wants pictures.
Come on now. Be mean and “shoot” everybody, even
your best friend.
The annual wants a Candid Camera Editor. If you
s^re interested, see the Editor-in-Chief, Mary Jane
Yeatman.

As Student Body president for this year, Mary Louise
so far has been snccessful in her trying job. She rooms
on first floor Holt, and if anyone is in trouble she is the
first one in school that wants to help. Although she is
slender, and compared with the large task she has
before her, very small, her personality renders her mas
ter of every situation and difficulty. Therefore, let’s
help her by trying as much as we can to make the honor
system and this whole year a success.
NOTE ON ORGANIZATIONS
To help you understand some of the leading clubs of
Saint Mar;^s, we are including this brief survey.
Ever since 1927 the Young People’s Service League
has been one of the most active and iriost inflnential
of our organizations. Each year five regular meetings
are held, the programs for which are prepared by the
various classes. The officers at present are Mary Jane
Yeatman, President, and Mary Louise Riddick, Vice
President. Among the League’s activities is the sup
port of an orphan at the Thompson Orphanage in
Charlotte, and help given to the mission church at Little
Switzerland.
Membership in the literary societies is based on par
ticular interest shown in those branches of literature
not included in our classroom work. Both town and
resident students are eligible for membership, the num
ber of those belonging usually not exceeding twenty for
each society. Meetings are held twice a month, the two
societies alternating their meetings. This year Ann
Dqwson is president of the Sigma Lambdas, and Jean
Blount will preside over the E. A. P.’s, and the first
meeting, a joint one, will be held Wednesday, September
29th.
