A beginning with vim and vigor marks the Society’s anticipa tion of a most successful year. The faculty sponsor, Mrs. Lyon, seems to have given the group a part of her enthusiasm this fall. The president of the society is Anne Batten. The groups are headed as follows: Betty Manning, Book Tea; Elsie Setzer, Debating Group; Lucille Dulin, Dramatic Group; and Margaret True, Creative Writing Group. Through the courtesy of Winthrop College, the Debating Group has be come a member of the National De bating Society and great things are expected of our Queens-Chicora mem bers. The first meetings were held Wednesday, October 16, and each group is thrilled over its recruits from our promising Freshman Class. Business was attended to and pro grams planned for our year. Cer tainly out of four groups we can find a place for our talents. The Lit erary Society has proved itself a wonderful opportunity for bringing out of these talents. Never let it be said that Edna Hunter is bashful. She and her soldier-boy marched right in the dining room Sunday. Dot Ehrhardt wouldn’t dare miss a Little Theatre performance. She’s always so anxious to see if that Miller boy will shine. Don’t be discouraged. Dot. We’re plenty proud of our school talent. Did you see Doodle Tues day night at the Little Theatre? Now that Rat Week is over, we all have had just opportunity to find the good sports among the freshmen— Here’s to you. Is there any one on this campus who hasn’t heard Frances Smith say: “My Mom gave me this ring?” Mary, aren’t you ashamed to take Georgia’s man away from her like that? Have you ever seen anyone enjoy ill health more than Frances Gunn? From what has been gathered, Jane Wiley sho’ has it bad—No wonder she always seems so happy. Here’s hoping the gang that went to P. C. homecoming didn’t complete ly destroy the place. It was very noticeable that Adeline’s boy friend is plenty good. He did $90.00 worth of damage in one night. I,,ois seems relieved since one of her old flames found a frat pen she lost for him this summer. Myrtle has a crick in her neck from watching the bench at the P. C. game. —Grins. Press Convention To Meet This Week In Chicago, Illinois Many Notable Speakers To Be Present Thoughts of a Freshman They “rush” you, and they “tea” you, and they look at you and talk, They hurry by—don’t even know you’re there.

They compliment you every time they speak. They ask you to a million things on every afternoon; And then—they change their minds and plan “Rat Week.” SELECTEil L EMILY POST Fniily I’nsl stvk* iidvi'icr mi'l ieaeJinfi aiitlmrily on eiiqiidlf' recnmmemls the new HamiiUin Cyntliia (illu^lratinl) I'nr ils brilliance anti siippliiTty al design ' Let us show you tiiiv and other new Haniillnn^ M.

Tryon Street MEET YOUR FRIENDS at the CAFETERIA Private Dining Rooms for Your Parties Book Review of Fortitude By Hugh Walpole Perhaps the best of Hugh Walpole’s books is Fortitude; certainly it is one of the most interesting portrayals of a man’s inner feelings and thoughts that he has ever done. Walpole takes the development of Peter Westcott’s character from childhood to man hood. The first rung in the ladder of Peter’s character was placed when in the midst of an unhappy child hood he overheard the remark of a very old man: “It is not life that mat ters, but the courage you bring to it.” To Peter this was the real true mean ing of living — fortitude. At each crisis of his life, this was the ultimate aim of his decisions, courage. It took courage to defy the older boys in his school, it took courage when he was successful and popular to throw it all away because of what he thought was right; it took courage to cross his father and leave his home for London to follow his call in life, writing; it took courage to admit his defeat there because he had allowed his real self to be eclipsed in order to please the woman he loved; and it took even more courage to return to Scaw House, the scene of his un happy childhood. Peter makes one feel strongly the need of fortitude in life to meet all the tragedy it in evitably holds in store.
