CHAPEL SINGING.
One of the most inspiring and
helpful things in our college ca
reer is good singing. I believe all
will agree that our chapel singing is
not what it should be, nor what ! t
could be. Oftentimes the chapel'
music is scarcely more than a piano
solo. Of course we enjoy instru
mental music, but I am sure Miss
Rudisill would feel better to have
us singing when such is supposed
to be the order of things.
We hear lots of really good voices
in the dormitories and on the cam
pus; then in chapel, when the sing
ing is poor, we look around for these
songsters only to find that many of
them are not even trying to sing.
Now if these folks would sing as
heartily in chapel as we hear them
sing elsewhere, it would not be long
before we should have chapel sing
ing well worth while. It would be
well if we should crevote at least
one chapel period a week entirely to
singing.
You fellows with splendid voices
who serenade us so beautifully from
time to time —don't be afraid ,to sing
out in chapel!
What a privilege and a joy it is to
sing! Let's enjoy this privilege of
ours during the chapel singing.
A COMPETITIVE SONG.
A few weeks ago we were shown
what pleasure the college may de
rive from a form of community
singing. That we wish more col
lege sings may be assured. The only
question is that of how to obtain
and strengthen our power of song.
The plan of an inter-class com
petitive sing provides one of the
most simple and yet one of the most
effective methods or obtaining good
college singing.
According to this plan, on some
day next spring, all four of our
classes will meet out-of-doors in the
presence of three judges. Each class
will sing three times in turn, each
giving a college song we now have,
a song composed of new words
adapted to some well-known music,
and a song composed of new music
and of new words. The judges will
then award the baton to the class
winning the most points.
The preparation for this sing can
be very simple. Each class needs
merely to appoint a cheer leader.
The four cheer leathers, men or wo
men, so chosen, together with the
head of the music department, may
form a committee to draw up the
rules for the contest. The class
meetings provide suitable opportu
nity for practice of the songs of each
class.
Not only do competitive songs
provide a source of pleasure and of
good musical development, but they
also give a means of obtaining new
college songs of merit, since the class
composing the best original songs
may perhaps have those songs in
cluded in the collection of college
music.
We hope that this matter will bQ
discussed when the various classes
next meet —discussed and adopted.

his temper, his ambition or his im
agination is valueless.
The last great teacher was the
Master himself —the greatest teach
er of them all. His message was
"Deny thyself." We must not only
know ourselves and control our
selves but we must deny ourselves.
The rich man who came to Christ
could not deny himself. Self deniai
is the way to build a great character.
All great characters of the world
have been made through self-denial.
Men like Abraham Lincoln and,
Robert E. Lee denied themselves of
many things in order to be success
ful. The product of self-denial is
service.
In conclusion the speaker said
that it was necessary to have all
three of these qualities in order to
have a successful life. It takes work
to build up a character. A dead
fish will go down the stream, but it
takes a live one to swim up stream.
If we know ourselves and have self
control, and then deny ourselves,
we can make our lives serviceable
and helpful.
