HELMS WINS ORATOR’S
MEDAL IN CLIO CONTEST
(Continued from page 1)
and worthwhile and represents a sac
rifice on the part of those who distin
guished it as a symbol of liberty and
freedom.
Other speakers in the contest were
Messrs. H. E. White, W. C. Elder,
H. C. Hainer, and R. S. Rainey. Mr.
White spoke on ‘'Fraternity Life.
He plead earnestly and forcefully for
better social, scholastic, moral and re
ligious life in the college fraternities,
and showed wherein real li've, true,
and honest fraternities are a valuable
addition to any college and are enti
tled to an important place on the col
lege campus. Mr. Elder spoke on “In
dustrial Unrest. In his speech he
cited many of the causes for the con
flict between capital and labor which
could be eliminated and would make
for better understanding between the
two classes, and better industrial con
ditions. Mr. Elder’s speech was very
good, and many expressed the opinion
that he proved himself a close rival to
the winning speakers. In speaking on
‘‘The Evils of Tobacco," Mr. H. C.
Hainer aimed a forceful blow at those
who would allow themselves to become
victims of the “filthy weed,’’ he con
tended that for the sake of the race,
tobacco must be abolished, not by an
amendment to the federal constitution
but by the force of public sentiment.
Perhaps the most pleasing feature
of the entire program came when Mr.
R. S. Rainey delivered his address on
“Women.” His appearance on the
floor was the signal for prolonged ap
plause and much laughter from the
audience, and none seemed more pleas
ed than were the subjects of his inter
esting discourse. He began by giving
a brief discussion on the brief subject
of women’s wearing apparel, comment
ing on the changes of style in the last
fifteen or twenty years and compli
menting the women upon emancipating
themselves from the torture of long
skirts and silly bindings. He then
announced that women’s clothes would
disappear from the rest of his speech
and began to discuss women’s ways.
His entire speech was compounded with
compliments, censure, admiration and
criticism in just the proper proportions
to make it palatable and enjoyable as
well as wholesome and instructive. Mr.
Rainey, in addition to being a good
speaker, is a comedian par excellence,
and his speeches are always greeted
with enthusiasm by his hearers.
The president of the contest announc
ed that the Clio orator’s medal would
be awarded t^ Mr. Helms, the winner
of the contest, at the society reunion
at Commencement.

on the subjects designated. They will
there contest for two medals; the
young ladies for the Moffitt Essayist’s
medal, and the men for the Stamford
Orator’s medal.
All the orations delivered by th^e
Seniors manifested considerable prep
aration and thought, and it is said
by some who have listened to orations
by the Senior class for a number of
years that this year’s collection was
the best that they had ever heard.
Tliere is already much speculation as
to the winners of the medals, and much
interest will tJe felt in the final con
test at Commencement.
