In the light of some recent obser vations it has been suggested that a course in the' rudiment of courtesy might profitably be added to the cur riculum of more than one educational institution. Certainly there seems to be a tendency on the part of some college students to assume liberties and privileges which even a slight de gree of culture would not sanction. , Nowhere is this regard for the rights and feelings of others, or the lack of such kindly consideration more evident than in the general con duct of a visiting athletic team. The fact that a student is an athletic rep resenative of his particular college gives this student no warrant to dis regard and disobey all the rules of the colleges visited, and of good breeding as well. To be more specific: The necessi ties of the case make it imperative that a library shall be used for quiet reading and study rather than an ex hibition of one's ability as a conver sationalist. It is neither just nor fair that girls be compelled to submit to a patrol of unknown young men around their dormitories, and to be obliged to run th.e gauntlet between ranks of fun- poking visitors. It would seem that a proper amount of self-respect, if iiotiling- more/- might make sucHi • COJMJI.UO.tt.. _ Other instances might be cited, but they would grow long in the telling. Suffice it is to say that institutions of learning may differ a great deal, but the fundamentals of courtesy and kindness are the same the world over' and were long ago given a most ex cellent summary in the Golden Rule. GUILFORI >IA XS >IEETIX VIRGINIA At the last quarterly meeting of Friends held at Corinth near Ivor, Va., October 20 and 21, two or three Guilfordians, seeing so many former Guilford students, called for a short reunion during the noon hour on Sunday. Twenty-four met for a few min utes, two others were at meeting dur ing the day and at least three more the preceding day. They include stu dents of New Garden Boarding School at irregular intervals from 1866, and of the College almost without inter ruption from the time its charter was granted, to the present. Among them are both quarterly meeting clerks, one monthly meeting clerk, several elders, overseers and Sunday school teachers, and some of the leading members of all the par ticular meetings in the quarter. Twelve are or have been grade or high school teachers, two won the Bryn Mawr scholarship; one is soon to sail for France to join the Recon struction Unit there; and one is judge of the Juvenile Court in Richmond. Secretary We were interested in noting that three of the old students were also grandchildren and three great-grand children of New Garden Boarding School. While in the families of the old students there, there are twenty three grandchildren and six great grandchildren of the institution. Many spoke warmly of their love for their Alma Mater and all joined in sending to the college loving greet ings;. grateful appreciation for the lofty ideals fostered in us there; and the hope that Guilford's high stand ard may never be lowered. The list of those present follows: Martha J. Harris Raiford, 1566-8; Josephus Byrd, 1881; Mary Cox White, 1882-5; Joseph L. Hare, 1891- 2; Sue J.

XKW GARDEN SENIORSEXTERTAIX A Kulamagundi Proves to lie a Most Delightful Affair. On last Wednesday evening th Seniors of New Garden Hall, Addie Morris, Hernice Pike, Totten Moton and Gertrude Cronk announced them- THK GUILiFORDIAtt selves-at iiome to tb-e members of class of 'lB. The invitations bade us come to a "Harvest Salamagundi," and conjec ture ran high as to just what a "Sal amagundi" might be. But this "mix ture," as Mr. Webster defined the unknown term, proved to be a most pleasant one. Soft light and brilliantly colored foliage had transformed New (Garden lobby into a scene which suggested autumn at its best, and the warm hospitality of the hostesses amply made up for the chilly atmosphere outside. Upon arrival each guest had the name of some eminent person pinned on his or lier back, and was told to ask any questions whatever concern ing the person except the name. Aft er much questioning in every quarter eacli guest at length succeeded in determining the name in the rear. But our ingenious hostesses were not content, that we should let our wits rest there. We were immedi ately set to work again—this time on the most delightful task of sup plying the missing words in a love ■tory. As this was to be done with the names of trees and shrubs we had also a splendid chance to display our knowledge (or ignorance) of botany. Prof. Brinton seemed best versed in this science and was presented a col knowledge. Just here a bunch of (ice cream) grapes, and cake refreshed those who lection of poems for his superior had toiled in vain, as well as the vic- Ot' course the evening would not iiave been complete without a dip in to the future of each Senior, and Gertrude Cronk as fortune teller brot jc" arid sorrow mixed in her marvel ous revelations. But Totten Moton as assistant revealer cheered some downcasts up a bit, and we all came away hoping that the future at least had another "Harvest Salamagundi" in store for each of us. For indeed this type of entertainment becomes most pleasant on intimate acquaint ance. Besides the cla3-s of 'lB, those pres ent were: Prof. Edwards, Prof. Brin ton.
