TABLE ETIQUETTE.
It is six o'clock. The bell rings
for supper and we file into the din
ing room. We sit down at the table
and bow our heads. When the bell
taps we turn over our plates and be
gin to talk. Each person helps him
self to the food within his reach if
there happens to be any. Usually
most of it is placed near the plate
of the waiter, entirely out of reach
of the people at the opposite end of
the table. If he thinks of it the
waiter pours the milk and two or
three glasses of it get by the first
person and stop, for the girl seated
next is so interested in the conversa
tion that she is having about kodak
pictures, her latest beau, etc., that
she does not realize that anything
else matters at that moment. The
lady at the head of the table prefers
water. She yells to the waiter two
or three times but he fails to hear
her. Finally the word passes from
one to another that the lady at the
head of the table wishes a glass of
water. The water is poured and
starts on its journey, is delayed sev
eral times and finally reaches its
destination when supper is nearly
half over. Miss Smith would like to
have some potatoes. She asks to
have them passed several times be
fore she is heard and when she dos
gets them she finds that the cook has
failed to put in enuff salt to suit her
special taste. But she cannot reach
the salt. After asking for it once or
twice she decides that she had rath
er eat potatoes without any salt at
all than to wait so long for it. Mr.
Jones asks that the beef be
But it happens to be nearest a cer
tain boy who is especially interested
in the girl sitting next to him. He
is so thoroughly carried away with
her thrilling conversation and
charming smile that he forgets that
any one else is present until some
body gives him a knock on the el
bow and tell him to pass the beef.
And so it is through the whole
meal, —not just one meal occasion
ally but three meals every day. We
do not mean to be rude but we are,
and it is high time for us to begin
to see ourselves as others see us. It
is not possible for every one to be
versed on all the fine points of eti
quette but it is possible for every one
to have fairly good manners, the
secret of which is putting others
first. At least we can, after help
ing ourselves to food, pass it on.
PROF. LATANE COMMENCEMENT
SPEAKER.
Prof. John H. Latane, professor of
History at Johns Hopkins and spe
cialist on international relations, will
deliver the commencement address
this year. He will speak on some
phase of American diplomacy. At
this time when international ques
tions are of such general interest it
will be a great privilege to hear
such an authority on the subject as
Prof. Liatane.
Williard O. Trueblood, pastor of
the First Friends church, of Indi
anapolis, will preach the baccalau
reate sermon. He has visited North
Carolina on two former occasions,
and has been greatly appreciated and
the senior class feels itself very for
tunate in securing Dr. Trueblood for
this occasion.
SAMUEL HAVWORTH LEADS Y.
M. C. A.
On last Thursday evening, April
24, Mr. Samuel Hayworth, pastor of
High Point Friends church, lead Y.
M. . A.
There are three ways, he said, by
which we may characterize a good
man. First, by his willingness to
lay down his life for others; second,
by his devotion to Jesus Christ;
third, by being master of himself.
If we are to attain the highest
we must raise our minds above ma
terial things and place them on
spiritual things. We cannot make
our lives perfect unless we have that
element of faith in Jesus Christ
which will carry us through to life
eternal. Faith, as the Apostle Paul
said, is the backbone of a Christian
life. Then when we have faith we
are brought in close contact with
Christ and our lives are made hap
pier and more beautiful."
The meeting of April 17th was led
by C. M. Macon, whose subject was:
"The Price of Salvation." The speak
er gave a very forceful talk, reiterat
ing the crucifiction in vivid descrip
tion.
Mr. Macon impressed upon the
members the Price of Salvation—
when Christ made the supreme sac
rifice why can we not sacrifice with
the right spirit.
