Articles received from an unknown source will not be published. OUR REGISTRAR Our Registrar is a quiet man. He has but little to say but means that little. He has given himself upi»?o the task of getting more and better students for Elon, to the task of improving the grade work done by the students here, and to the task of causing Elon to be known and recognized for its high grade of work. 'I'he extent to which he has succeeded is indicated by the fact that the recent Conference of Registrars in North Carolina elected him for their president during the ensuing year. They, as we, have confidence in his ability and willingness to work. He will, no doubt, discharge his duty in this capacity as faithfully as he has his duties as our Registrar. Mr. Cannon is also our Graduate Manager of Athletics. During his two years in this position he has put Elon athletics on a much better financial basis and has brought about many other improve- ments in the field of athletics. —E C— MEREDITH AND STATE ENTERTAIN Meredith and State proved to be delighted hostesses and hosts. We were kept busy from the time we arrived at Raleigh until the time to leave. Mr. Hester, our capable president, opened the meet ing with a very interesting and instructive address. The speaker described the type of student that our college editors should be and their rank in college life. This was exceedingly an able address, and it set a high standard that prevailed throughout the coirvention. Here all of our problems were discussed. We received much con structive criticism. The whole convention was a great success. The membership of the association is steadily growing. Each and '.'ery delegate derived a great deal of benefit from this meeting and enjoy ed the many social events as well, as Meredith and State did not spare either time or elTort in their role as joint hosts. —E C-- REPORTERS CLUB Recently, a Reporters Club was elected. The members of this club come from the four college classes. Both men and women were selected as reporters. We believe that the students who were elected are representatives of the whole student body. We think that the Maroon and Gold should represent the whole student body and we are striving to that end. In their work as ixporters they will receive valuable experience which they can not get in any other college activity. This experience will aid them ach in later life. If you know of an election, a social gathering or any kind of news that will be interesting to our readers, call a reporter; he will be glad to “write it up.” Do not wait till the “news” becomes history. Call the reporter while it is still “news.” —E C— OUR TEAM Our team has come into its own. It has started to win. The men ]>layed an excellent game at Guilford last Saturday, as the score indicates. That is the “old fight,” big team. Keep it up. With the entire student body behind you, and on the home field, you have an excellent chance to win the High Point game this week. We are for you, one and all. Let’s go! to see if he can remember me.’' —Beat High Point— Will some one please tell Mr. Jim Utley what the two gentlemen were looking for on the piano keys at the concert Monday night—he wants to know. At chapel last Saturday, the speakers were a scientist and a preacher, who were to be introduced by two students from tlie expression class, Mr. Boone and Mr. Veazcy. Mr. Boone said, “Ladies and gentlemen, we are glad to have with us a great scientist who will address us on a subject of which he is a living example. Professor Zoboe will now^ address us o'n the theme of ‘‘Tlie Missing Link!” After this feature of the program, Mr. Veazey came forw'ard and said. “Friends, 1 am sure we are all delight ed to have with us a man w'ho has given the subject of his discourse an unusual amount of study. In fact it is true that he is full of liis subject. The Eev. Looniup will now address us on ‘The Works of Satan.' ” ;}: -t * A new society has been formed on the hill, its purpose being to bring about tlie return of the golden age when wliiskers were in fashion. Its members assert that shaving takes much time that could be spent in enjoyable loafing and that a good coat of beard saves the public from being exposed to so much masculine homeliness. They will meet in the P. K. W. Society Hall. No. 37 East Dormitory. No special badge will be bought, but any one seen wear ing a beard more than five quarters of au inch long will be recognized as a member. The goat will be the sacred emblem of the new order. —Merci Moses— Ode to Seniors By E. D.

Not like this, of course Yet you will find in it a dozen jobs that can be done more quickly and effectively by electricity—and done so quietly as to be praaically unnoticed. In fact, electricity has completely revolutionized many ojSice methods. /!l„, I'! I Mm V#* TNE KIMPUTKET = I only one left for Miss Arledge and Miss Bushong. They drew straws. Result: Miss Arledge had her date, and Miss Bushong is still rubbing tear-stained eyes. —Bedbug Deaton— Remember that I, Oscar, am always hungry for scandal and gossip. Keep m, ^ X . , c, full and I shall never go There were two girls on the hill Sun- l , lay who had a couple of dates apiece. —M.*c-0'W^“ Well, they decided to divide with some oilier girls. Miss Frances Dark took Small -boy “Hudson” looking at one of the “dates." and there was stork, “Mamma, I believe he is trying!

"^^OUR FATHER probably wiU recall the days of high stools, eycc'.-r.dcs, ?nd eveninrs overtime. But vi:it a modern office! A thou sand letters to go out by four o’cloci;. A new price list to all customers in to-night’s mail, without fail. Enter electricity. Two or three people trmswitches.and thefinished letters come out of an ingenious machine. Another motion and they are sealed and stamped. Only elec tricity could get that job done. Here’s a statistical job. The reports are in; thousands of figures to analyze. Looks like overtime for fifty clerks. “Certainly not,’’ answers electricity, as a button starts the motor-driven sorters and tabulators. Key cards are punched with light ning fingers. Electric sorters devoit 24,000 cards an hour. Tabulatois add quantities and amounts in jij time, and print the totals. Go to almost any bank today. Hanil in your account book.
