Y. M. G. A. NOTES Dr. Perisho, who spoke at Y. M. C. A., last Thursday evening, concerning the good influence Y. M. C. A. has on the lives of students, made a plea to make Y. M. C. A. and Sunday School more efficient. Rev. Joseph Peele then spoke con cerning the value of Christain influ ence, the appeal of Christ's life, and the necessity of prayer for the success of religious meetings. "Let us follow the right way" said Mr. Peele in conclusion, "For college men and women will have a tremenduous influence upon the life of the world." Y. W. C. A, NOTES The regular meeting of the Y. W C. A., Thursday evening was con ducted as a vesper song service. Vera Farlow, leader, reminded the girls of the fact that so many peo ple sing by merely calling words, not understanding them. To create a deeper appreciation for well known hymns she gave interesting stories relating the occasions which prompted the writing of certain great hymns. The leader also mentioned several famous men who have held some favorite hymns as the guiding star in their life's journey. After singing a number of spe cially selected songs the association was dismissed by singing softly "Peace I leave with You."

Home Concert of Glee Club (Continued frcm page 1) Tosti's "Goodbye," "Japanese Moon," "Dreams," and "Sal, the Doggoned" were done with appro priate spirit. "The College Med ley" and "Wake Miss Lindy" were THE G-UILFORDIAN perhaps best received, with close ! seconds in Hayden's "'Serenade" and Longfellow's "Goodnight Beloved," with music by Lacair. The tender melody of "La Palo ma," the medley of southern songs "Reminiscences of the South" and "Little Red School House" were harmonious and charming under the hands, —and mouths —of the orches- I tra The encores to both glee club and the orchestra numbers were familiar, amusing and pleasing. The enterprising organization of the glee club, formed in the last two years under the leadership of Miss Byrd, has created a fine de gree of enthusiasm this year on its tour of Jamestown, Reidsville, Ashc boro, High Point, Pleasant Garden and Oak Ridge. The entertainment here was fol lowed by a reception in the library, given by the glee club to all its audience. The personnel is as follows: First tenors: J. G. Frazier, T. H. Mackie, J. B. Joyce; second tenors; M. H. Shore, J. O. Reynolds, C. M. Smith, V. R. White; first basses: R. K. Farlowe, F. L. Crutchfield, J. F. Cude, E. M. Macon; second basses: J. R. Barbee; J. D. White, R. G. Lassiter, J. F. Casey, B. C. Shore. The orchestra consisted of: vio lins, Virginia Robnson and Benbow Merriman; clarinet, G. E. Michael; cornet, R. K. Farlowe; trombone, F. L. Crutchfield; piano, E.
