EDITORIAL
If you desire the best Christ
mas possible, study hard this
week and go home with a mind
free from worry about class work
and a suit-case free from text
books.
Welcome Alumni
Nothing is more inspiring to
students than the presence of
Alumni representatives on the
campus. We welcome them and
feel that we are drawn closer to
them each time they visit us.
With a loyal alumni and an ac
tive body of trustees working
together, a Greater Guilford is
assured.
There is something for us to
do. These organizations, howev
er efficient they may be, cannot
make the college its best unless
we do our' part. Let's boost our
Guilford everywhere we go.

Progressive Guilford
Progressive and growing are
two adjectives which may be ap
plied to Guilford in many ways.
Probably the two most recent de
velopments are the completion of
a new well, and the erection on
the campus of a carefully plann
ed and well equipped cottage now
occupied bv professor and Mrs.
M. C. Davis.
This Progressive tendency has
extended beyond the limits of the
campus. Cannon's new modern
brick store standing just outside
the entrance gate is a splendid
asset to the college.
Probably the next thing to be
done is the grading of a new and
larger athletic field for the girls.
This will be of special value for
the present grounds and equip
ment are entirely inadequate.
By wa r of suggestion we men
tion cement walks and a new
gymnasium to be next in order,
and some campus lights!

Christmas
It is only a week now until
Christmas really begins. No mat
ter who we are nor where we go,
Christmas, that best day of all,
is in our minds. However, when
we stop to think, we often find
ourselves questioning the real
purpose and motive back of all
our plans for rest and enjoyment.
This question, as all others,
would be answered differently by
different types of people. At first
sight it is a time of vacation and
home-coming, but deeper than
this is the more powerful motive!
of giving, the basis for the real!
lasting Christmas spirit. This
spirit, or its outward expression,
has become so indelibly stamped
in our nature that we are apt to
accept it without question or feel
ing. Thanks to our religious na
ture and the splendid atmosphere
of our college which lends to us
here at Guilford the divine inspi
ration and Christian love.
If we are to get anything val
uable from this Christmas sea
son we must have something def
inite in mind and have associated
with it the right mental and spir
itual attitude. The presents which
we give and receive, if they are
to be of any benefit other than
material, must be free from sel
fish motives, and given out of
love rather than with the thought
of exchange.
Regardless of religious creeds,
the spirit in which the Christ
child was given has become the
ideal of the world, for it has been
proved practical in the lives of in
dividuals. The chaotic condi
tions which are prevalent
throughout the world today ex
tend a challenge for a broader ap
plication of these wonderful, yet
simple teachings.
So while we are having such -i
joyful vacation, the challenge
comes to us as college students
and as influential men and wo
men. to practice at this Christmas
jtime the teachings of the One
j whose birth we are commemorat-
MAUDE SIMPSON RE ELECTED
PRESIDENT OF C. E. SOCIETY
During the past two Sunday
evenings, open discussions have

general interest in Christian En

ing lately and everyone seems to

ing.
Last Sunday night the election

lowing officers will be installed
at the next regular meeting

High Point Day
(Continued from page 1.)
forcements the Pointers took the
laurels.
The day ended with speeches
from C. M. Waynick, manager of
the High Point Enterprise, Tom
Svkes, Mr. Hardin, High Point
Y. M. C. A. secretary, and Dr.
Binford, president of Guilford,
also the waving of Miss Louise's
stick.
Women's Athletics
From all reports a very enthu
siastic basket ball season is ex
pected among the girls this year.
Miss Parker says that 50 or 60
girls have gone out for this sport.
They meet for practice in the
Gymnasium on Tuesday and
Thursday.
Ruth Stephens spent the week
end at her home in Greensboro.
THE GUILFORDIAN
Y.W.C.A- RAISES NICE SUM
AT CHRISTMAS RAZAAR
The young women's christian |
association held it's annual Christ
inas Bazaar at Memorial Hall Sat
evening. The bazaar was a suc
cess in every way.
Under the direction of Miss
Virginia Osborne, president of
the association, and Miss Marie
Beamon, vice-president, several
interesting and profitable pro
jects were carried out. Possibly
the most exciting one was the
guessing contest. The object of
which was to guess the number
of beans in a glass jar. Mr. Ed
ward Holder was declared the
winner and received as a prize,
one of Mary Robert's latest
novels. The display of gifts was
especially good and they were
quickly solcl. The proceeds which
amounted to $35.00 go to the
general reasury of the organiza
tion.
ORLIGATION OE COLLEGE MEN
AND WOMEN IN Y. W, C. A.
Edith Macon, as leader of the
Y. \Y. C. A., Thursday evening,
spoke upon the obligations of col
lege men and women toward the
industrial workers of the nation.
In the first place the speaker
asked the question "Who pays
for one's college education?" She
then proceeded to explain how
the state makes appropriations to
the state colleges. These appro
priations come from state taxes
and all the people are taxed, thus
one is under obligations to all
classes of people for the existence
of state colleges in particular.
There is then a relationship be
tween c >!lege students and indus
trial workers, but most students
are prone to forget that all these
people aid in maintaining the
school, and tht those who come
to college have no more right to
college endowments than those
who are not in a position to ac
cept them.
Miss Macon in concluding her
remarks, stressed the duty of
college men and women to live
their lives as much as possible
for the benefit and advancement
of the less fortunate members of
society.
Home Economics
Miss Kopf, head of the Home
Economics Dep., took her classes
in Art Appreciation and House
hold Management to Greensboro
last week to see "Castle Charm
ing" the new perfectly planned
model home that was thrown
open to the public last week, for
home lovers and those interested
in house planning. The classes
were enthuastic over the house as
a whole, and came away very
pleased.
Virginia Osborne is now doing
her practice teaching for her
Home Economics major.
Endowment Campaign
(Continued from page 1.)
I e probably the most difficult to
secure but by the help of the
graduates and former students,
Dr. Perisho says this can be
quickly accomplished.
According to him, the present
stage of the campaign justifies
the statement' that its success is
insured, which of itself guarantees
the continuation of Guilford as an
"A" class college indefinitely.
