Hinshaw SUBSCRIPTION I'UICE SI.OO Address all communications to THE GUILFORDIAN Guilford College, N. C. "SUCCESS OR FAILURE." From time to time one is con fronted with two ends—success and failure. Although some a as if they little eared what was the outcome of their efforts yet even in the lives of the most reck less there are moments when th?\ wish for something better tha 1 they have known. To win SUJCSS requires liibor and perseverance, but it does not pay to repire be cause the Fates are sometimes against one; but one must remem ber that those very things which are considered as failures are the true tests of merit. * Some one lias said that life is too short for us to waste one mo ment in deploring our lot. for suc cess has never come to any one and if we wish to obtain it we will have to put forth .ill of our etl'oris. There never was a time in the history of the world when high success in any profession demand ed higher and more earnest labor than it does today. It is neces sary for us to devote ourse'ves completely to anything we under take. It s better never to put our hand to anything in which we cannot throw our whole selves Granting that success is the goal for which we are all striving, yet many of us have to toil on without in v apparent success. Such being the case we liava to draw on our courage and hope that at some time we will realize the desired results. In fact there is often as much, if not more, tc be derived from failure as funn success. It' failures, or what we term failures, are taken in the proper spiiit w> derive much good from them because we put fort i more conscious effort. The fact that we have found an obstacle in our way makes us more capable of overcoming the next one we have to face. In short none of us can classify failures and successes for. what we think ;ire failures may he very essential to ou>- progress. This thought has heen aptly ex pressed by the poet who said "Men callet! it failure; lor my own part, I dare not use that word, for what if heaven, ISre its last judgment shall >e read should ask Not * 11:; st thou won?' hul only 'llast thou striven?'"

A meeting of the Literary Club was held Wednesday evening, April 2S. President Hobbs, who was the tirst on the program, gave an ac count of (lis death of the suitors. Ulysses, who for the lirst time since his arrival in Ithaca, reveals himself to the suitors, succeeds with the help of three friends, and of Pallas in the form of Mentor, in slaying all of the suitor train. The description of this slaughter is very detailed and vivid. Mrs. Davis then related the meeting between Ulysses and Pen elope. Penelo]>e is awakened by an old faithful servant and told to descend to J he hall where she will find the long looked for Ulysses. She of course doubts his identity until he gives her evident proofs. The scene which then takes place between them showing their joy in at last finding each other, is a very pretty one. Finally Ulysses with his son, the herdsman and the swineheard set out for the country in search of Lavites. .Miss .Julia White told of the meeting of Ulysses and his father. The latter is working in his or chard and of course does not rec ognize his son. Ulysses decides first to question him before reveal ing his idenritv. Hut soon, moved by the old man's grief over a son whom he supposes dead, he rushes to him saying, "Nav, I am he my father; I myself, am he of whom thou askest." Miss Aver gave briefly the con clusion of the book. The souls of the slain suitors are conducted to Hades by Mercury, where they relate to Achilles and Agamemnon in detail the story of the wooing of Penelope. Meanwhile the 1 Ilia cans, aroused by the death of these suitors, rush to Ulysses' THE GUILFORDIAN "Get It At Odell's" Quality First Base Ball, Basket Ball, Tennis, Track and Gym Supplies Sweaters, Jerseys and Athlectic Clothing A Specialty Odell Hardware Company Greensboro, N.
