The club also made plans to submit negatives to be printed by and entered in the Davidson College Camera Club which will hold its ex hibit in the near future. After the business discussion, Mar ion Miller gave a brief report on the construction and value of the pin hole camera. At the next meeting, the club will undertake to make one of these useful yet simple cameras. MAIDEN FORM’S ALLO IDEAL FOR BREASTS^ Heavier-lhan-averagebrcasls, though still youthfully firm, are especially susceptible to premature “breaking down.” Maiden Form developed “Alio” to safeguard their youthful contours and to mould them with fashionable uplift and a smart “dividing line.” •«««. o.». mt. orr. *1**1 J^3** FOUNDATIONS — SECOND FLOOR CHARLOTTE.

All the students were asked to take forward steps and re dedicate their lives to Christ. Some of the steps suggested by Dr. Bradley were: 1. Deeper dedication of one’s life to Christ. 2. To set aside a definite period each day for personal devotion. 8. Take a greater part in Vespers and other religious programs. 4. Willingness to ask God’s guidance in planning your life. 6. Be more sympathetic and tolerant of others. 6. If one finds himself face to face with an impossible task, he should regard it as a compliment that God has paid him. God knows that he is the person who can do that task.

Whether this is due to the fact that the Queens queens have suddenly become biog raphy-conscious, or whether it is the result of required reading for some English classes, we hesitate to say. However, it would be indeed disap pointing If all this biography read ing did not instil in a large number of people a greater liking for that type of literature. Many people, sad to relate, begin to frown darkly when biographies or autobiographies are mentioned, and exhibit a dislike for them similar to the universal dislike for exams or dissertations on long boring subjects. Something should be done about this situation. These people who frown must have had some grue some experiences with the second or even third rate biographies, of which we must admit, there are quite a few in existence. But on the other hand there are many which turn out to be so interesting and stimulating that you simply cannot put them down until you have reached the “finis” sign, and consequently you sleep through all your classes the next day. There really are some people who have to cultivate a taste for biogra phies, just as they do for olives. It isn’t fair for you to condemn all biog raphies after having read one. Why not give some of the really good ones a chance? A suggestion for a good starting point would be the current favorite. Young Man of Caracas, by T. R. Ybarra, especially if you are interested in South American life. It is the story of Thomas Russell Ybarra, whose mother was Nelly Rus sell of Boston, and whose father was General Alejandro Ybarra of Caracas, Venezuela. The author inherited both his mother’s New England calm views of life and his father’s high-spirited zest for living. His youth was spent both in Boston and in Caracas, and the pages of his book are full of de lightful pen-pictures (or, in this year 1942, should we say typewriter-pic tures?) of his family and friends in the two so-very-different places. This book is just what the doctor ordered for so-called biography haters. -JULIA KEYS. The Queens Lookout Christ As Ring THE RULE OF CHRIST AS KING is the world’s only hope. God has revealed that this is possible as He dwells in redeemed men and women. Never was that more obvious than in these times of horror and chaos. The one organization in the world, therefore, who must be on the offensive to the last man is the Christian Church. Their war effort must outdo all other war efforts. To them the call comes home with full intensity, “Go to it.” Not that the Church has failed, as some would say. Far from it. Si lently, mainly unnoticed by world governments, the Christian army has been on the march, especially this past one hundred and fifty years. Into India, China, Japan; into the deserts and forests of Africa; into all the world’s great islands their missionary legions have poured. Up set regimes may talk and dream for a decade of world conquest, but the Christian Church has settled that question for two thousand years. World Conquest is theirs alone. At one Name only, the Name of Jesus, every knee shall bow. But in its world advance a mo ment full of danger and opportunity has come. Our Captain made perfect ly plain both the final objective of His army and the methods by which it is to be reached: a personal offer of His way of life is to be made to “every creature.” Just when vic tory is in sight, however, we are in danger of wavering. A cowardly fear, a dry rot has set in. With the task unfinished, with unreached millions, perhaps five hundred millions, still to challenge our loyalty and obedience, the language of “holdihg on” or even “retrenchment” is much more on our lips, than that of large scale ad vance and completion of the task. Why? Because a subtle lapse from the principles of successful warfare laid down by our Captain has crept into nearly all ranks. “By faith,” the inspired record tells us, all the great spiritual victories of his tory were won. Now the essence of faith is to march out on unseen re sources, to gamble our lives on an invisible God, to declare and demon strate by our actions that the wealth, health and wisdom available to faith make the puny supplies in the banks, bodies and brains of mere men is a dribble compared to the Niagara of the resources of God. God is today asking “Whom shall I send?” and “Who will go for me?” Students are still answering by His grace, “Here am I; send me.” Taken from pamphlet by Worldwide Evangelization Crusade called “To Bring Back The King.” After the Theatre meet your friends in the BAMBOO ROOM THE HOTEL Wm.
