One morning this week after the
last breakfast bell had rung and the
old boys had congregated at their
usual place under the broad portico
at Founders, a strange sight gripped
the attention of all who chanced -to
be looking in the direction of Cox or
Archdale. It was the first appear
ance of the Freshman regulation
caps. With firm step these first year
men advanced to their regular assem
bling ground beneath the beautiful
trees in the rear of the old men's
position and there they gathered
around the ancient oak tree, each
having some witty remarks for the
new head gear. The crimson crowns
with green 'buttons blended so per
fectly with the leaves which autumn
had robbed of their youthful hue,
that even the squirrels leaped play
fully at (their feet as if vainly search
ing for the berries of a late summer
dogwood tree. Truly such a scene
was exliilirating almost to the extent
of poetical inspiration.
The Seniors are planning to plant
a bed of sweet peas in the shape of
a 'l7, directly in front of Memorial
Hall. The class colors are navy blue
and orange and it is the hope of the
committee in charge that they will
be able to blend by some alternating
process, the original colors into the
desired shades. This is an original
idea as no other class at Guilford has
ever attempted to encroach upon the
field of horticulture.
CONCERT WELL RENDERED.
Excellent Readings and Splendid Vo
cal Numbers Feature Even
ing's Entertainment.
One of the most pleasant concerts
of the year was given last Saturday
evening under the auspices of the
Davis Philathea class. The evening's
program consisted of several excel
lent readings by Mrs. C. G. Doak and
a number of vocal selections by Mrs.
C. O. Meredith and Misses Pauline
White and Gertrude Hobbs.
The readings of Mrs. Doak were
splendidly received and she was com
pelled to answer with a select num
ber of encores. Her interpretation
of Smith's "The Negro Party" exhib
ited histrionic ability. Special men
tion should be made of her toast to
the Guilford athlete as an encore to
the fifth number.
The vocal numbers of the program
were unusually good. Mrs. Mere
dith, a former teacher of vocal music
here, was delightful in De Koven's
"Dainty Dorothea," while Miss Hobbs
rendered Nevin's "Nightingale Song"
in a very pleasing manner. Miss
White, of the music department,
scored a real success in "The Shoogy-
Slioo" by Mayhew. Not the least ap
preciated number of the program was
a trio, Weber's "Rose Gatherers" by
Mrs. Meredith, Misses Hobbs and
White. The accompaniments were
sympathetically played by Miss
Gracett Prazier, whose skill in this
particular is becoming well recog
nized. The program was well render
ed and enthusiastically received.
ZATASIANS ELECT NEW
OFFICERS.
Society was called to order by the
president. After the appointment of

prepared program was rendered.
1. Reading—Willie Finch.
2. Instrumental solo—Lillie Wil
liamson.
3. Recitation —Juanita Reece.
4. Vocal Solo—Ethel Speas.
After the program, many encour
aging remarks were made concern
ing the splendid work which is be
ing done by the new members.
We were very glad to receive as
members of our society Vera M-
Bane, Mattie Creed, Tressa Galdo,
Sarah Galdo, lola Smith and Dovie
Shore.
As this was the night for the elec
tion of officers, the following were
elected: President, Mary Ella Cope
land; secretary, Gertrude Cronk;
marshal. Fern Highfill.
FRAZIER. WHITE AND CAMEIION
ELEC TKI) S)I'HMOIIE
DEBATERS.
At a meeting of the Sophomore
class Wednesday night the question
of class debates was brought up and
the class decided to send a challenge
to the Freshmen class for a debate
to take place in the near future.
Those elected to uphold the honors
of the Sophomore class in the debate
were: Messrs. Robert H. Frazier,
Sherley N. White ancr T). D. Shields
Cameron.
The election of Sophomore deba
;>.rs marks the beginning of inter
class debates for this year. It is
probable that the other classes will
soon have teams elected and this ex
cellent custom wli tch was allowed to
lapse last year will be revived.
THE GUILF ORDI AN
The Man Who Delivers the Goods.
There's a man in the world who is
never turned down
Wherever he chances to stray;
He gets the glad hand in the popu
lous town
Or out where the farmers make the
hay;
He's greeted with pleasure on deserts
of sand
And deep in the aisle of the woods;
Wherever he goes, there's the wel
coming hand,
He's the man who delivers the
goods.
The failures of life sit around and
complain;
The gods haven't treated them
white;
They've lost their umbrellas when
ever there's rain,
And they haven't their lanterns at
at night.
Men tire of the failures who fill with
their sighs
The air of their own neighbor
hoods;
There's the man who is greeted with
love-lighted eyes—
He's the man who delivers the
goods. —Selected.
