On Saturday afternoon immediate ly following the football game some where between 11 and 22 men could be seen in front of Cox Hall passing a football among themselves as if pre paring for a regular scrimmage. They were running, jumping, falling, wallowing and in fact were doing al most everything that would be liable to aid the progress of lawn diseases and subject the front of this magnifi cent building to the horrors of dis figuration. Of course this was a case of thotlessness on the part of these fellows, to which we merely propose calling attention, for we feel sure that not a single one is devoid of that keen sense of love for beautiful sur roundings which would make him take every precaution necessary to preserve the natural appearance of the campus. The fact is, if a window should be broken or any similar damage done and the guilty party should escape unapprehended, the Athletic Associa tion would be held liable by the col lege, and forced to pay the cost of repairs. For these reasons we emphatically urge that the fellows desist from such careless behavior and that they take more time to reflect upon the little things which affect the home like qualities of our college life. We are planning to run some is sues of the Guilfordian in which the greater part of the paper will be giv en over to some particular subject. For instance a New Garden number will be put out about the first of Nov ember containing an article on the history and purpose of New Garden, together with other things of inter est from and about the people who dwell in this domicile of wonders and beauty. We warn all persons, partic ularly New Garden inhabitants, who have not subscribed to the college weekly to get their names in before the first one of the issues comes out because it will be impossible to get extra copies on the grounds at any price. Other special numbers will be issued dealing with the "Campus," "The Library," the various depart ments of instruction, etc. HON. T. W. BICKETT ADDRESSKS STUDENTS (Continued from first page) mandment, "Thou shalt not kill," is as binding to a nation as to an indi vidual. At first there were some who scoff ed at the New Jersey school teacher, but now those who scoffed have re mained to pray, and today in Europe thousands are on their knees praying to Almighty God to baptize their rulers with the spirit of Woodrow Wilson. Next he spoke of the misunder stood Mexican situation, of the taunts Woodrow Wilson had received for his refusal to recognize Huertr. Woodrow Wilson refused to recog nize Huerta, whose hands were drip ping with the blood of the noblest, sweetest man Mexico had ever known or to recognize a government whose foundation was treachery and assas sination. In the dry white light of history it will be seen that Huerta had as much right to be regarded as head of government as Judas Iscariot had to be regarded as head of the church. Hughes may call our beloved pres ident a weakling, Roosevelt may call him cliiefest of sinners, but the nin ety and nine whom he has saved from war's bloody clutch will answer, "Whether he be sinner or not, we do not know, but one thing we do know, that while half of the world is trem bling in the greatest tragedy time has ever known, in America there is peace that surpasseth all understand ing." THE PHILOMATHEANS Have Interesting Meeting Debate Hotly Contested. The Philomathean Literary Society had a very interesting program last Friday evening, October 20th. The house was called to order by the president, Mary Ina Shamburger, and Sallie McGehee was appointed critic. The program was: 1. Instrumental solo Beulah Moton. THE GUILFORDIAN 2. Debate: Resolved that Wilson should be re-elected. 3. Odds and Ends-—Bonnie Mae Barnes. 4. Recitation—Dova Hay worth. The debate was very ably present ed by Eleen Raiford on the affirma tive, who argued that Wilson had kept the United States out of war; had averted the railroad strike and had given to the country the rural credit system; while Maude Lassiter on the negative, contended that the President's foreign policy had been a failure and that he had not lived up to the platform upon which he had been elected. The judges, Ruth Coltrane, Leah Stanley and Donna Mcßane, and also the vote of the house, gave the decision to the af firmative. We desire to congratulate the new girls on the very excellent work they are doing in Society and the interest they are taking. We were very glad to add the names JJT Anna Henley, Clara McCracken and Ada McCrack en to the Philomathean roll. HONEST IS THE BEST POLICY. "It has been well said 'Honesty is the best policy' " were the first words of L. E. Stuart, who led the meeting of the Y. M. C. A. on Thursday even ing. Honesty is one of the large words in our language, for this word stands for the very foundation for a successful life. Honesty is an essen tial element in a Ch/istian character, and if any one expects to model his life after the life of Christ, he will surely try to maintain within his mind the principles of this one word. Character cannot be purchased. It must be developed gradually, and at the same time it must have a firm foundation. Students should strive to be loyal and honest to each other, and have a greater determination to serve others. It has been well said: "Sow a thought, reap a word; sow a word, reap an act; sow an act, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a charac ter; sow a character, reap a destiny." Then the thoughts of any one will determine his destiny. Fellows think about this one thing, and see if your life is really what it should be in order to have the most influence in the right way."
