COLLEGE STUDENTS AND THE RED CROSS by sacrifice of his ideals, and through greater number of years of illness from tuberculosis, which he had not the power to change, the beloved poet of the South land struggled on, until with a tempera ture of 104, and while too w’eak to feed himself, he penciled his last and greatest poem, “Sunrise,” afraid that he would die ere the completion of his task. “Knowledge we ask not—knowledge Thou has lent; But Lord, the will—there lies our bitter need; Give us to build above a deep intent. The deed, the deed!” iS. HARPER DELIVERS ADDRESS ON TRIP WEST 'I'he Y. W, C. A. meeting on Sunday evening was the most interesting one that has been held this j'ear. The main feature of the program was an address Mrs. W. A. Harper on “My Trip Through the West.” The meeting opened wnth a song ser- ice. “Follow the Gleam” and ‘^‘All Hail the IVnver” were sung. The association was then led in prayer by Dr. W. C. Wicker. Three other numbers of special in terest were: A solo by Miss Florence Fisher, with violin obligato by Miss May Stanley, and a readying, “Out Where the West Begins." by Dr. Anna Helfen- stein. The reading was intended to im part to the audience enough of the spirit of the west to make Mrs, Hanger’s ad dress more fully appreciated. Dean A, L. Hook introduced the speak er of the evening who was already well known to the audience, Mrs. Harper’s address was intensely interesting. Dean Hook show'ed slides of some of the places visited, thus increasing its interest. Mrs. Harper stated that she could mention only the most important things seen on the trip. She mentioned the Indians and their homes and habits, the grand canyon, the oil wells, the beauti ful cities in California, and finally the home and family of Mr. Orban, who made Elon a present of $50,000. Due to the Christian Endeavor pro gram the lecture was not finished, but will probably be continued next Sunday evening. The meeting closed with a speci al song by the choir,> and the benediction by Dr. J. (). Atkinson.

MRS. HARPER HOSTESS AT DELIGHTFUL PARTY (Continued from Page One) There is ])robably no word harder worked in the colleges and universities today than “vision.’’ And it is because of this quest of vision that students are thinking with a clarity, a degree of pene tration. an inclusiveness, and an earnest ness of purpose which did not charac terize preceding generations. Underneath a certain surface lightness engendered by the healthful give-and-take of present day camims life, there is developing a fibre which will stand the test of the epoch upon which the world is entering. The Hed C’ross. national and interna tional. recognizes the fact that in the American colleges and universities of to day is to be found its leadership for to morrow, in a work which pei'haps more than any other is interpreting to the world at large the full scope and mean ing of the ideal of the Brotherhood of Man. Consequently it voices at this time an appeal to the students of America, not only for support in the on coming American National Red Cross Roll call, November 11-20, but for seri ous constructive study of the w’ork and melhods of the Organization, looking to ward the day when they will assume their rightful positions of community, state and national leadership. The demands of the time are increis- ingly complex, and the future is heavily charged with forces which as yet defy analysis. It is not by chance that you have come to your high place in life. We believe that it is for a purpose, and that without the best each one can do in service to his fellowmen. all life must be poorer in the end. Will you not therefore, stand with the unconquerable will of a Sidney Lanier to the i.leni ot service? Through years Mr. H. B. Wiite. ”22, spent Sunday of poverty which he could have chansed afternoon on the- Hill.
