The toastmaster followed with the welcome address. ‘‘Hai), Hail, the gang’s all here” was used as the open ii;g song. Fred Smith proved to be our song leader. The lirst speaker was AValter E, Brill, wlio took as his topic, “Looking For ward,” Freshman C. C, Page.spoke on “What T hope to get from the Asso ciation.” “What 1 have gained as Ministerial Member,” was well dis cussed by Daniel C. Boone. Sam B ^'ilson pleased the listeners with a dis cussion of “Is the Ministerial Associa tion W^orth while.” H. C. Hilliard handled the subject “How we may help it to go, glow, and grow'.” The last speaker was Boy Coulter who spoke on ‘ ‘ Our Duty. ’' Many jokes sandwiched in between the speeches })roved very interesting. It seemed as though most of them re lated stories of preachers and fried chicken. The Association elected Dr. J. I'. Newman as the Sponsor for this year.

Tlie meeting was called to order by the \'ice-Presiilent, Miss Ann Rawls of guffolk. The first important item of business was the election of a new president to take the place of Mr. Hin ton Eountree, who did not return. The floor was declared open for nom inations and Miss Ann Bawls was nominated and elected by acclamation This action made it necessary to elect new Vice-President. Mr. Elijah New man Jones of Holland was nominated and elected bv acclamation. These new officers, together with Miss Frances Bincr of Edinburg and K, B, Hook of Winchester as Secretary and Treasurer respectively, are quite capable of guid ing the Virginia Club through a most successful year. ^ ^ Following the election of officers, several matters of miscellaneous busi ness were brought up and discussed. The Club voted to place a group picture in the Phipsicli again this year.

After a short business session a phiy- Utte, entitled, '‘Please Pass the Cream,’’ was given. Tt was tactfully r>cted out by Misses Wantell Lambeth and Adna Lane Bruton. This an unusual feature of society which w'as thoroughly enjayed by all. JimiOfiStltCTSmTHIlllB C0LCL008P 10 SENJTE Due to the fact tliat the two student senators of the Junior (’lass did not return, the president of the class called a meeting of the junior boys to select two new representatives, Tuesday after chapel. J. Howard Smith and Leo Oolclough were elected to serve with Lester Reg ister as the representatives of the Jun ior Class to the Student Senate. We are very fortunate to have with us this year I\Irs. Grace Hall Riheldaf- fer, professor of Voice and Theory. ^Irs. Riheldaffer, who has a national reputation as a concert artist, has had a wide exx)erience as teacher, composer, and writer, having studied extensive ly both at' home and abroad. In Ger many she studied under Aihiaan Froni of the Stockhousen Conservatory of Stuttgart. As a concert artist Mrs. Riheldaffer . has sung with the New York Symj)hony Orchestra, Walter Damrosch, Conductor, the Russian Symphony Orchestra. Modest Altschu- ter, ('onductor, )ias given concerts in Ihe leading universities, colleges, and nuisic clubs of tlie United States and Canaila, and has had a wide ex])erience a? a churi.di solist. She has taught in New York (‘ity, Pittsburgh, Palm Beach, Fla., and the State Normal School at Indiana, Pa. Tt is with the very highest recommendations from the outstanding music teachers o-f America that she comes to Klon. All the stu dents here at Kh»n that are taking work under Mrs. Riheldaffer are im mensely enthused with their study un der her. On last Saturday night every one on Flon campus was in a very enthusiastic mooil. The real Elon Spirit was re vealed. The Sophomore boys “made” the “Freshies” bring the w’ood for the bonfire. As so-on as the great red tiames . j.jieared against the dark sky, some girl saw that the Co-eds were needed ti give inspiration. The Dean showed her good sportsmanship by letting the girls go out on the campus to raise whoopee as near the bonfire as possible. Miss ‘ ‘ Johnny’ ’ Sharpe, cheer-leader, led the cheers. They were given for the team that gave Davidson such a tough tight. A few^ of the football men w'ho were back were asked to give an account of the game. Captain Smith told us how hard our boys fought and how much they appreciated the backing of the student body. He spoke alsy of the good work of Pete Williams, as well as the others. He was followed by sev eral other of the football men. Some were (as all men are) bashful and wouldn’t say anything. We hope they lose some of their bashfulness before Saturday night, so they can make us a s]teech after the game with Cataw’ba. After this some more yells were given with “Here’s to Dear Ole Elon,” as a farewell song. FiNE llliTS DEPIIRTIIIENT LOOKS PROMISIKG GIRLS ENJOY Y. W. PICNIC On last Wednesday afternoon the girls of Elon College had a very enjoy able outing at Moonelon. They left the college about four o’clock and hiked over there. Some of the girls said, “Don’t mind the wind!” and went in swimming. They seemed to have a very good time in the water. After some games, came the best part of the pro gram: the eats, Tht eats consisted of: Sandwiches, weinies, rolls, and coffee. Notwithstanding the faces that one side of the “weinnie” would be burnt and the other raw, that smoke wonld get in their eyes, and their faces roasted every one left singing and talking about what n good time she had and how good everything was to eat. MINISTERISL STUDENTS HOLD SPIRITEO-MEElli Uinilay night at the regular Student Beligious Activities' service the Minis- ttrial Association gave a very inspiring pr(-gram.

THE CLIOS OFF TO II PfIOmSING STSRT The freshmen ha\'e heard of the old Klon spirit (ni the cani]ius; but there is another kind of spirit which they have not heard of, and that is the (Hio S]'irit. This spirit is still flourishing, with the old Clio boys, and they showed bv their actions Tuesday night that they still have both the spirit and the oratory of the jjreceding years. It ivs -hfwn that the Clio boys can think 'i speak in jmblic; for even tl.ov.gh ti e speeches were im promptu, they were given with the style of an experienced speaker, anil in them was material to be digested by all the listeners. They were proof within themselves that they had derived greiit benefit from their, past experience in the society. With the interest that is being shown, we are looking forward to the greatest year in the history of the society. Th Clios are striving so that you may know them by their w'Ol-ks. NOTICE TO DAY STUDENTS Y^ou may receive your copy of the Maroon and Gold in the Maroon and Gold office every Saturday morning. And then there was the Scotchman who was so tight that he would not talk unless he was where he could get an echo, so he could get his question back as well as an answer. The fine arts department has started with the largest class in the history of New Elon. Miss Newman’s schedule is almost full. About a third of the class are new ]>upils, and A^?y show Pxcej'tion:il talent. ^ a Due to the fact that the school sys tem of North Carolina is gradually bringing art into the grades, this de partment is giving an entirely new' course in school arts w’hich is opened to all art students. Another course not I'.eretofore given is composition, which is causng quite a bit of amusement as well as profitable wo'rk. Olay model ing is also gaining in popuhirity. This is given only once a w^eek. The Palatte and Brush Club w'ill have a call meeting some time soon. Attend ance is voluntary, how^ever all studeJits interested in art appreciation are in vited to join. Those who have the privilege of be- iag students of Miss Newman are al ways aware of her strong personality, the strength of her character, her syni- jiathy and uiiderstanding. Not only does she give to them a knowledge of f'ne arts, but by association with her they learn to know and to like a teacher whose influence can be nothing but good. The studio is lo’cated on the third floor of the Alamance building and is open every day, except Saturday, from 8:00 A. M. to 6:00 P. M. Visitors are welcome at all times, especially fresh men.
