And lo, my dream is at an end!
I slowly wake and sign.
Oh, rude awakening, Ye Greek Gods,
Pray tell me where am I?
On Grecian soil ’mid royal scenes,
Or other foreign strand!
Which would I choose, had I the power?

And is feeling sort of blue;
Ah, if yon have never tried it
You do not know what good ’t will do.
Just go walk up to him boldly.
Never falter, don’t delay;
And slap him on the shoulder
In a friendly sort of way.

Our leader tonight was Mr. C. .
Rountree. His subject was “Kipdness,”
and was based on the fourth chapter of
The Acts. Everyone present got some
good out of the meeting and 1 think
everyone took some part. When the boys
enter into the ap.rit of Y. M. C. A. meet
ings like they entered into the spirit of
this meeting the \. M. C. A. is a success.
Some few gave personal experiences of
what kindness has done for their lives,
and others made some very interesting
talks on the subject. Did not Christ say,
“When ye do as much unto the least of
these, my brethren, you do it unto me.”
When we do a kind deed we always get
some benefit from it for “whatsoever a
man soweth, that shall he also reap.”
We see in the Scriptures “Cast your
bread upon the waters and it shall return
unto you after many days.” The popu
lar way of paraphasing this verse is
“Cast your bread upon the waters and it
shall return unto you buttered.” All of
this goes to show that a kind action is
never unworthy, for the doer of this ac
tion will always reap some benefit from
it. Not only so with actions, but also
with words. “Kind words can never die.
When a man sees a fellow’-student look
ing blue a!:d goes up to him in a friend
ly manner and asks him if he needs any
help or anything of that sort he makes
a friend then and there while if he had
not spoken to this man the man would
have thought that this man is stuck up
and thinks he is above me and he would
not have very much to do with him.
True friendship is one of the sweetest
things to me in all this earth. When a
man is prospering he has many friends
but as soon as the tide of fortune turns
he finds who are the friends and who
are not. I came across a little verse the
other day which one can apply not only
to school life but to life in general. It
is this:

The Young Women’s (^liristian Associ
ation met Sunday afternoon at the usual
time. Miss Irma Utley was our leader,
and chose as her subject Back-sliding.
She read a beautiful selection from Saint
Matthew bearing upon the subject.
Miss (Jrace Rollings rendered a lovely
and touching solo. This was greatly en
joyed and very suitable for the occasion.
Most of the girls participated which
made the meeting a very interesting one.

The Psiphelian Society met in its usual
meeting last Friday evening, No\ember 1.
Our programme for the evening was un
usually good and exceedingly well rend
ered. It is indeed gratifying to the old
members to see so much interest being
displayed by the new members. They
are doing well and seem t||) have tlie
determination to make society work one
of the most attractive features of col
lege life. The numbers deserving special
mention were a piano solo, recitation, and
a paper on “The First Impressions” of So
ciety.” The piano solo rendered by Miss
Viola Price was very sweet. The recita
tion given by Miss Lilian Johnson was
witty and enjoyed by all. Miss Daph-
ney Boughman gave us a very interesting
jiaper on “Her First Impressions” of So
ciety.” As a whole the programme war,
very interesting.

MIXISTERIAL AUSOCIA TIOX
‘.‘Christianity” was the subject for the
meeting with the ministers. And as usual
we had a good meeting.
You would not realize the helpful
ideas we get at our mid-week meeting. At
every meeting our eyes are opened to
parts of the scripture that before we
were blind to its meaning.
What is Christianity? Why do we be
lieve in it? These are the questions asked
by Mr. Gotten, the leader.
Christianity is a religion that has
Christ as its head. We believe in it be
cause we get so many benefits from it by
the death of the cross. It will be plain
ly seen if we compare the United States,
a nation that has this religion, with
China, a nation that has not this relig
ion as its chief religion. All reformations
were caused by this religion. It is a re
ligion that gives happiness to the for
saken and heavy hearted.
The meetings in the future wiU be
some what different from what it has
been.
The leader and his subject are chosen
a week prior to the meeting so as ^o give
all a chance to think about the sub.ject
before he comes to the association. Rev.
J. T. Morgan is leader for the next meet
ing, his subject “Is the ministry a call
ing or a profession”?

ly PHILOLOGIAX HALL.
Our boys gave us a rare treat Friday
evening as all their productions were
well rendered and were as varied in
scope as was the number of different
sjieakers.
The program consisted of wit, humor,
pathos, original productions and finally
flowed into the depths of Ethics and
Philosophy.
Our best speaker oratorically was J. B.
Elkin, who spoke from the subject “How
to Win.” In a clear tone and being well
self possessed he laid down the fjinda-
mentals of winning. His advice would ap
ply to all who wish to win.
The debate was, resolved that; The
colonization of the negro in Africa
ould be better for the race than their
him the commendation of his hearers.
The debate for the evening was as
usual, very interesting. The query re
solved itself thus: That reciprocity treat,
ies should be encouraged for the purpose
of increasing American trade. Much ef
fective argument was produced by both
sides. Each debater showed that he was
familiar with the question, and did all he
could for the defence of his side.
However the affirmative was the win
ning side, with Mr. C. W. Rountree as its
best speaker. The best on the negative
was W. J. Gotten; oratorically, K. W.
Loftin, of Kinston, N. C.

,/.Y TUF. CLIO HALL, FRIDAY
KVKXIXCr.
The meeting for Friday evening lasi,
is highly remarkable for its enthusiasm
and spirit of competition. Competition was
more highly manifested than ever before
during this scholastic year. The reason
for it perhaps w'as due to the fact that
the ])rogram for our annual entertain
ment which is to come off Febraary 22,
1912, was being arranged; and every
man was competing for a place.
Three items on the program deserve
special mention. These w'ere an oration,
declamation, and the debate.
The oration for the evening was ren
dered by Mr K. W. Loftin, subject being,
‘ ‘ Living Principles. * ’ His production was
very good indeed. Such principles as he
brought out were not minor (jrinciples
in the least. They were such as should
be involved in every day life. His speech
haij considerable weight, and won for
him much distinction as a speaker and an
orator.
Mr. F. D. Finch gave us the decla-
tion. He was well prepared and spoke in
a creditable manner. His work won for
