When will the leaves leave. This
question has been troubling the
minds of many Guilford students
who have been watching the ludi
crous efforts of certain gentlemen of
African descent who have apparently
been raking the leaves off the camp
us. They started early in March.
Neat little piles were made. The
next day the wind demolished the
piles. New piles were made. Again
the wind spoiled them. Again and
again was the .process repeated. As
Sisyiphus rolled the stone up the hill
only to find it to descend again, as
Tantalus grasped the grapes only to
see them vanish, so did Wakefields
doughty deciples practise repeatedly
that old precept "If you don't at first
succeed, try, try again." Finally
some genius hit upon the plan of
loading the leaves into wagons. We
are happy to say that the last leaf
will soon leave.
At a recent chapel exercise Dr.
Meredith, for the faculty, announced
the election of Jesse P. Garner as
holder of the Haverford College
scholarship for the coming year,
1917-1918, and Mary Ina Shamburg
er as the Guilford representative at
Bryn Mawr College for the coming
year.
Jesse P. Garner is a splendid col
lege man, one who will make an ex
cellent representative. He is a
thorough student, having made good
grades during his entire course here.
He is, however, anything but a grind.
Every college activity has called up
on him for his energy and he lias
always answered with a distinct con
tribution. He has been a member
of the baseball team for four seasons,
this year captaining the best team
which Guilford has produced in a
number of years. He is president of
the Athletic Association, and was
also a member of the Guilford Foot
ball Club. In Y. M. C. A. he has
been equally effective, having had
the Bible Study department under
his care during the past year. In
his class, dramatic and musical fea
tures of college life Garner has stood
in the front. As a typical Guilford
product, Guilford need not fear for
her record with Garner as her rep
resentative.
Guilford will also be well repre
sented at Bryn Mawr by Mary Ina
Shamburger. She has taken high
rank in scholarship during her four
years at Guilford, having won the
Marvin Harden scholarship in her
sophomore year. She has ever been
loyal to collegiate activities, being
particularly devoted to class and stu
dent government duties. She was
the .moving spirit in organizing the
system of Student Government for
the girls. The Y. M. C. A. iias also
taken no little amount of her time
as she has been treasurer of this or
ganization for several years. Her
Senior year has featured by her work
in the library, assisting Miss Julia
White.
As alternates Jesse Stanley and
Ruth Coble were chosen by the fac
ulty.
