This was brought about by the fact that nine of the editorial board were ill with the "flu." We hope our patronizers will pardon the deficiency because of this reason. We shall endeavor to make up for it by an extra issue later on. Advice is a thing none of us are accustomed to accept. It is cheap— far too cheap! But at the beginning of the new term, perhaps a few words of it may be allowed to fill this space. This is the time to begin work! Do not wait till tomorrow, next week or next month to begin. Now, while the memory of the re cent examinations and our struggles with them is vividly present in our minds, is the very time to be collect ing our forces for the next battle which will come in May. If we could just realize this our strength would be great—so great there would be no possibility of us going down in defeat as we may have done during the recent struggle. Perhaps the most potent influence in making things count as we go on is perseverance. This force con quers all things. If it is not in us we are quite likely to become "quit ters" and that means failure. With perseverance we can win—"constant dropping wears away the stone." Let us make little things count. Fortunes hang on trifles very often. At times we fail to recognize the value in trifles and valuable oppor- tunities are lost. We miss the im portant things because they may be small or appear, so to us. Then when we need them they are gone—gone beyond recall. "For want of a nail the shoe was lost" —and eventually a kingdom. Looking for these little things pays—and pays a big per cent. Lastly, avoid the thief, procrasti nation. He will rob you surely and effectually. He is a thief in the truest sense of the word. He robs you of the present by giving it to the future. So effectual and decisive is this robbery that the thief always escapes without punishment and takes your property beyond your re call. Today is only yours for twen ty-four hours. Will you, in the pres ent term, consent to become this thief's victim? Fight him! Keeping these and many more things in mind, the term will neces sarily be a successful one. Not only does this apply to indi viduals —but it wilt pay the organi zations to think about it too. Liter ary societies, athletic associations, and all activities can lift the stand ards and help make the victory sure in the next struggle! Let's win the fight and take advantage of our op portunities by getting all we can out of the coming months. FOUNDERS SCENE OF BEAUTIFUL WEDDING A pretty romant, culminated in Pounder's Hall last Friday night when Miss Mary Ellen Griffin be came the bride of Mr. Jessie Cox. The scene of the wedding was the Zatasian Society Hall. The cere mony was preceded by a beautiful vocal solo by Miss Lulu Raiford Miss Luna Taylor presided at the piano. Accompanied by the strains of the wedding march from Lohen grin the bridal party appeared, led by the Rev. Ed. Raiford, who per formed the ceremony with all his accustomed dignity, when the ring was placed on the brifle's finger and the happy couple realized that at last love's dream had come true the spectators were moved to tears of joy. Following the ceremony a de licious collation of peanut au na turel was served. The bride, whose ravishing beauty threw the aulience into a frenzy of jealousy toward the groom, wore torquOise tulle over blue duchess satin decorated with rose buds. Instead of a veil she wore a fillet which revealed rather than concealed her blushing coun tenance. The maid of honor was Miss Jean Whitney, who was attired in American Beauty tulle over pink taffeta. Her head was adorned with a wide picture hat set at a fetching angle. The flower girls, Miss Annie Brown and Miss Thelma Cloud, wore yellow and green and carried three quart flower pots. The best man, Mr. Dick Dixon, and the groom wore conventional black. The honey moon will be spent in the flu depart ment. PRE-VACATION EVENTS. Owing to the fact that college closed in December a week earlier than anticipated the laet December issue of the Guilfordian was not published and several important events were accordingly not record ed. Among these were the Zatasian oratorical contest and the Christmas musicales. The Zatasian orators lived up to the high reputation of THE GUIIiFORDIAjr that organization and produced some first class speeches. The prize was awarded to Miss Josephine Mock "for her excellent account of the Czecho slovaks. The students' recital showed that high grade work is being done by the musical department under Miss Julia Ball. An unusual number of vocal numbers appeared. On the last Sunday the college chorus ren dered in fine manner a number of Christmas pieces under the able di rection of Prof. Guevchenian. Many old students and friends of Guilford were visitors on the camp us during the past week end. Among these were the following: Misses Grace Taylor,, 'l7, of Danbury; Kathleen Simpson, of Winston jSa lem; Elizabeth Malonee, of Walnut Cove; Mrs. W. W. Whitaker, of El kin, and Messrs. G. L. Jarvis, of Walnut Cove, Julius Hubbard, of North Wilkesboro; George Bryant, of Mayodan; Buxton Weaver, of Rich Square; Banks Doggett, of Brown Summit; Fred Coo*r, of King; Ral eigh Tremain, of Brown Summit; Bill Lloyd, of Spencer, and Lieut. E. B. Carroll, 'l7, who has just been discharged from Camp Polk. Mr. Carroll is planning to do some post graduate work at Guilford this spring.
