November 3, 1920. MRS. W. A. WHITE TELLS FORTUNES BASED ON SCRIPTURE Y. W. C. A. Pleased With Talk. The poster that announced the regular prayer meting of the Y. W. C. A. attracted an universal amount of attention this week, not so much on account of itself, but on account of the message it gave. Its mes sage was: "Mrs. W. A. White will tell your fortunes. Bring your Bi bles, pencils and paper." There is always a pleasant feeling of antic-, ipation and interest when Mrs. White talks to students. Then, too, as it is the fortune telling season, there were various surmises as to what method would be used in finding our fortunes and what would be the re sults. After the usual song and invoca tion Mrs. White took charge of the service. Her talk was based on the thirty-first chapter of Proverbs. As the chapter contains thirty-one vex'ses, each verse was taken to rep resent a day of the month. Each girl read the verse corresponding in number to the date of her birth and so found her fortune. Mrs. White gave some very beautiful and in spiring comments and remarks on the chapter and the subject of the Ideal Woman, emphasizing especially the last clause of verse thirty, "A woman that fearth the Lord, she shall be praised." May we ever strive to reach as nearly as possible the ideal of real happiness, service, and de voiton. CHAUTAUQUA. (Continued from page 1) United States and other parts of America. His lectures will be con cerning some of the countries he has visited: France, Italy, Belgium, and Servia. The pictures shown, which will oc cupy about half of the time of each entertainment, will consist of both comedy and drama. This is the first series of enter tainments to come to Guilford in so short a space of time. Though the Chautauqua comes on very short no tice it has been extremely adver tised about Guilford. "HOW TO MAKE GOOD" "Push" said the button. "Take Pains" said the window. "Be Straight" said the ruler. "Stick to it" said the Calendar. "Never miss a second" said the clock. "Be Shai*p" said the scissors. "Keep clean" said the wash stand. "Keep Posted" said the ledger. "Be well read" said the red ink. "Absorb everything" said the blot ter. ROADS At the presenet time there is under construction in North Carolina 116.5 miles of concrete and asphalt road. The estimated cost of this hai-d-sur faced road is approximately $3,799,- 538. Besides this there is under con struction in this state 375.6 miles of gravel and clay road. The latter will cost approximately $3,730,098. The hard surfaced road just complet ed between Guilford college and Greensboro costs approximately $35,270 per mile according to the North Carolina Highway Bulletin. ALUMNI NOTES The following 1 communication sign ed, "Alumnus" speaks for itself and is published under Alumni Notes without comment. "I have visited Guilford College two or three times within the past six months and the ruins of what was once the splendid entrance to the college has been the first thing to meet my eye. The view presents the appearance of an approach to some old abandoned castle rather than the entrance way to a modern college. The material necessary for •the restoration of the structure seems to lie on the grounds and has been, to my knowledge, for some time. Just why the matter rests here I have been unable to ascertain. As I recall, the entrance way was donated by of the classes to gi'aduate some years ago as a class memorial—a splendid monument to the spirit of the class in the first instance. However, I should think they ought to see to it that the matter of reconstruction should be attended to without delay. Certainly the situation demands the attention of some one as the present approach leaves a bad impression on the mind of the casual visitor to the college, as well as the traveling public on the main highway that skirts the campus. Giulford has not been abandoned by any means though the approach might indicate otherwise." An excerpt from a letter recently received at the college from Anna C. Shamburger, a student of last year's sophomore class, will be read with interest by her friends here. "I am registered in the school of Hygiene and Public Health as a candidate for the Bachelor's degree; however, I have a course in organic chemistry at Homewood, the college of Arts and Sciences of the Johns Hopkins University I miss |the Guilford atmosphere and com radeship very much and think of you very often." We have just been informed that Joseph W. Dixon 'B9 of Missoula, Montana, is the Republican candidate for Governor of that state with the strong probability of election before this item appears in print. It will be recalled that Mr. Dixon was United States Senator from Montana some years ago and campaign mana ger for Mr. Roosevelt the last time he ran for presidency. C. M. Short 'O3, who for some years has held pastorates in the Methodist church, was stationed at Mount Holly, N. C. by the Annual Conference of the Western North Carolina Conference recently held in Salisbury, N. C. Eileen Lewis 'l4 is teaching at Hardin, Montana. Paul Kennet 'l4 is Professor of History at Elon College. Martha Lewis of Winston-Salem spent Saturday with her cousin Nell Carroll. Roger Kiser 'l9 was a visitor at the College Saturday. Shields Cameron '2O and Curtis McGee, a former Guilfordian, were guests of friends and relatives at the college Sunday.
