SOCIETY NOTES jf
Thirteen Welcomed Into
Clay Fold at Last Meeting
In its third igi.!ar meeting of the
year, the Henry Clay Literary
cviety welconed into membership 12
new members and leinstated one old
one, giving the fecvv'y a total mem
bership up to the pnrent of 48.
The first nuraber on the program
for the evening was a debate "Re
solved, that the government should
control the distribution of coal," but
it was voted by the society to post
pone the number to allow for an
early adjournment. The second
number on the program was an
oration delivered by Russel Branson
to whom much credit is due for his
careful preparation. The program
was ended with a collection of
"Campus Notes" by James Joyce.
The society was glad to have
with them two old Clays, Ed Mcßane
of Greensboro, N. C., and Gladstone
Hodgin of Guilford College. The
later being re-instated into the so
ciety. The society was also glad to
welcome into membership the fol
lowing new men: Grady Conrad,
Alonzo Russell, Silas Starnes, J. E.
Thigpen, Theodore Doub, Ray Boose,
Jim Lineback, Alton Watson, Sidney
Winslow, Charlie Friddle, Joe Mc-
Collum, Frank Baker.
Jewell Edwards and Ina
Mixon Entertain Zays
The chief number on the program
given by the Zatasian Literary so
ciety, Friday evening, Sept. 28, was an
original dialogue between Jewell
Edwards and Ina Mixon. In cos
tume and appearance which made
a very appropriate setting for the
scene, Misses Edwards and Mixon
posed as old Zays twenty years
hence. In the course of their con
versation the future fortunes and
scandals alike, which are in store
for number of present Zay members,
were predicted in a witty and humor
ous manner.
Pherlie Mae Siske read an original
short story which satisfactorily ful
filled the expectation aroused when
the title "An Exciting Night" was
announced.
Prior to this, a musical selection
given by Mildred Townsend was
enjoyed.
Milton Occupies Place on
Philomathean Program
Milton, his life and work, was the
theme of the literary program given
by Philomatheans on Friday evening.
Edith Macon, in "Sketches From
the Life of Milton," gave a brief but
comprehensive review of the out
standing facts of the poets life and
furnished a good background for the
appreciation of his work, Milton's
discussion on education was inter
estingly reviewed by Maud Simp
son who ponited out the contrast in
his views and the modern view con
cerning this subject. Fairy Staley read
several of his representative poems
including "On Reaching My I wenty
third Birthday" and the sonnet on
his blindness.
The musical number "Butterfly
by Grieg played by Leora Sherrill
was much enjoyed, and Clara Coble
with "Current Events" furnished an
interesting note of humor to the
program.
At this time Misses Antonette
Williams, Anna May Newlin, Artina
Jack and Isa Wilson were welcomed
into membership of the society.
Websterians Debate
Tariff; Three Men Join
The first number on the program
in the Websterian society last Friday
night, was a debate, "Resolved: that
legislation should be shaped toward
the abandonment of the protective
tariff."
John Cude and Joe Willborn de
fended the affirmative, while Ernest
Cude, who spoke in place of Elton
Warrick, on the football
trip, and Lee Cude maintained the
cause of the negative, and won the
two-to-one decision of the judges.
Jokes by Raymond Ebert and read
ing from Edgar A. Guest by Hershel
Macon completed the literary pro
gram.
Ten Websterians were absent on
the foot-ball trip. Several new men
were present and made speeches.
The society was pleased to receive
Messrs. Lonnie Russell, Julian Sat
terfield and Jones as members.
THE FUTURE OF THE JOB
John Hays Hammond is quoted as
having made the startling statement
that he never hires a man who asks,
"What is the future in this job?"
Mr. Hammond explains that he
cannot tell what the future will be
for any man in any job, and that
the man who asks such a question
i will not make good on the job.
Reading this was quite a jolt to
me, because I can recall having asked
that question myself and I know
the question has often been asked
me.
But Mr. Hammond's bold state
ment does lead to an interesting
thought, namely, that the future of
the man holding any job depends
entirely on the man himself.
The lad who is running errands
today may be at the head of the
j business in twenty years, and the
first vice president may still be the
first vice president in twenty years
Such a thing has happened many
times, and it will happen again.
Victor Sincere says: "Opportuni
ties are everywhere. The trouble is
that folks don't recognize them. Why,
it is an opportunity just to have a
job where you can express yourself!
Punctuality, veracity, willingness to
work, loyalty, reliability and readi
ness to take responsibility—all create
opportunities for advancement; espe
cially readiness to accept responsi
bility."
Possibly Mr. Hammond discovered,
as the result of hiring thousands of
men, that he could just as truthfully
paint a rosy picture of the future
to a new ditch-digger as to a new
department head. In other words,
he could not guarantee a future to
any one, and he did not think it
wise to commit himself.—T. M. Mag
azine.
TRAFFIC IN 1786
What Would They Say Now?
Compare the modern speed mania
with the traffic situation of long ago:
"On Saturday a child was run over
in Walter Street by a cart and horse
That more persons are not injured
by coaches, carts, etc., is certainly
owing more to good fortune than" to
good management, considering the
reckless manner they are allowed to
run through the streets."
At the time this state of affairs
existed in New York the city had a
population of 23,61 1.
Mr. Grady Smith was on the
campus Sunday.
THE GUILFORDIAN
COACH DOAK IS MAKING
SOME SHIFTS IN LINE UP
The Trinity cyclone which passed
over the Guilford football affair has
caused Coach Doak to make some
shifts in the Quaker line-up. He
doesn't predict victory when he
take his chorts against the Baptists
next Saturday but he is sure that
there is going to be some more ef
fective fighting done. Another thing
that lends a h and to holding the
Wake Forest scrappers to a closer
score is the fact that Guilford stood
them to a 0-0 score last year, and
the team's morale is calculated to
be stronger.
All in all. the games that are next
to the Guilford man's heart are those
that are coming toward the last of
the season, the ones with Elon and
Wofford.
Elton Warrick from Goldsboro
who has been playing center for the
Quakers in the past two seasons, and
whose defensive plunges have been
the features in the Guilford games,
is now working out at left end. Holt
of Saxapahaw is taking Warrick's
place at the pivotal position. Fred
Thomas is again out for practice
and in all likelihood will start at
left half next Saturday. Thomas
played on the varsity last year.
Tough scrimmages will be staged
until Friday. Luckily none of the
Quaker artists were injured under
the fire of Steiner's machine last
Saturday in Durham.
MISS BYRD PLAYS PIANO
AT CHAPEL EXERCISES
Playing a short program of light
piano classics Miss Byrd gave to
the student body a novel chapel
program last Tuesday morning.
The first two numbers were from
Grieg and Godard, and fitted well
into the spirit of a fresh morning
They were played in a light, cap
ricious, and somewhat brillian
style. The third number, in con
trast was the sonorous prelude in
C minor, one of the three favorite
preludes of Chopin. This work,
which approximates a funeral strain,
was played with deep feeling and
remarkable chord work. The deli
cate little "Sous les Bois" com
pleted the program.
For encore Miss Byrd played her
own arrangement of '"Believe Me
if All Those Endearing Young
Charms," which number was enthu
siastically received and enjoyed.
Professor Rhesa Newlin
Elected to "Math" Society
Professor Rhesa Newlin, of the
Mathematical Department of Guil
ford College received a letter this
week from Secretary Richardson of
New York City, informing him that
he had been elected a member of
the American Mathematical Society.
This is cpiite an honor tendered
Professor Newlin as this Mathema
tical Society is the largest in Ameri
ca. and election to its membership
will mean much to Mr. Newlin in
his mathematical work.
Faculty Picks Marshals
For the Coming Year
At the regular meeting of the
faculty on Tuesday night, Fred Winn
was elected as chief marshal for the
vear. The other members of the
junior class who will act as marshals
with him are: Nellie Chilton. Ruth
Levering, Robert Marshall and Ed
ward Holder.
