A. last Thursday evening. "My first experience with the | Y. M. C. A.," said the speaker, "was in Emporia, Kansas. I suffered a chill while walking along the strees, and fell helpless on the sidewalk. Here I lay till a Y. M. C. A. member 1 came along. He helped me reach the home of an acquaintance and since that time I have always been an enthusiastic supporter of this j great organization." 1 "The lives of the students show what kind of a college they attend," • I asserted Mr. Hobson. "So each one > | should live a true, clean, Christian life, the only one which is worth ! while." i The speaker then gave an ac-1 [ | count of two men: one a poor; ;: young man, but a Christian, who )jbecame a prosperous business man; , the other an outlaw who after ;; evading the officers for many years lat last was captured, j "Put up a fight to get people to j become followers of Jesus," he con tinued. It takes a man with back - | bone to be a consistent Christian., but that is the only life that will ] bring happiness. , Know, Do, and End, Is i Talked at Y. W. Meeting } The Y. W. C. A. meeting held on . Tuesday evening, was jointly con , j ducted by President Osborne, Mar garet Levering, and Elizabeth Cude . with the three questions "What do • you know?" "What can you do?" . and "What is your goal?" respect ively, for discussion. In considering the first question, , President Osborne explained the siu , nificance and extent of Y. W. as an . organization, and showed the rela tionship which exists between the local and national organization. "Y W. C. A.'s?" she explained, "exist in over thirty countries of the world and in all nations, the members stand for Christian character, Christian; living and Christian fellowship." In conclusion, Miss Osborne call jed attention to the notable work of { Y. W. C. A.'s in various cities. In a brief discussion on "What can you do?" Margaret Levering mentioned the fact that the mem bers of the W. can set the stand ard of moral life on campus. "Each member," she said, "can do active i work right here, and she must do it in order to make the most of the association." In dealing with the question "What is your goal?" ( ; Elizabeth Cude said: , "Of course there is something we , each had rather do in life, but have ( we considered whether that some thing is what will benefit ourselves ( and others most? Every girl has r her own particular task to fulfill, | which if she neglects it, will always ] go undone. If our task is small. [ let us do it just as well as though it were great, for when the great Scorer comes to write against your ( name He will not ask did you win or ], lose, but how did you play the game."

Tv THE GUILFORDIAN BIG PROSPECTS AHEAD FOR TENNIS AT GUILFORD Guilford should be stronger in tennis this year than in the past four or five. This statement is made after a careful survey of old j and new material. Considering the the successes of last year which consisted of victories over State, and Elon, a tie with Trinity, and a near victory over Wake Forest, this prophesy might seem a little out ol proportion. However, here are a few convincers as noted on the | courts. Twenty-five men are daily fight ing for a place on the varsity five. Last year there were only fifteen. Five old english "G"s fly back and forth across the courts, where on' v two could be counted last season. | Six of the new men are tennis play ers of no small merit now, and with | the coaching of Prof. Pancoast they should make someone hurry for their place. Brown, of year before last varsity squad, is the biggest addition. The letter men back are, Winn, Short. Joyce, Reynolds, and Harris. Volley-Ball Attracts Large Bit of Interest Volley-ball is creating more in terest among the students than was hoped. Teams representing the dif ferent sections of Cox Hall have j j been organized, and interesting con tests are being staged daily. That the men are enjoying this milder form of exercise, and that the con tests are exciting to the last point is assured by the yelling, and cheer ing floating in from that section lof the athletic field. This branch of sports is finding many friends among the students. Madame Hoffman Gives Tea to Student Advisees On Wednesday afternoon from 1:30 to 6:00 Madame Hoffman delightfully entertained her student advisees at tea, this being the firs' i tea given on the campus this school I year.
