A man who would stay in his
room and not attend his literary
society meeting on Friday night
is not worthy of the name "a true
Guilfordian."

Trinity has a new swimming
pool. Maybe the fifty thousand
the Alumni are going to subscribe
to the endowment will be spent
011 a swimming pool. Fifty thous
and—a new gymnasium—is it too
much to hope for a swimming
pool ?

Guilford —student body and
faculty—felt, on the passing of
Wood row Wilson, that the world
had lost the greatest minister of
the ideal of democracy. But they
also felt that the Woodrow Wil
son and what he has come to
mean in the spirit of the age has
not passed and will not pass. His
body may be entombed, his per
sonality fade with time, but his
spirit will always go abroad over
the earth, wherever a civilized
people live and strive for the ideal.

How any college in Xorth Car
olina must envy Davidson and bet
part in the molding of the great
personality that has just passed.
The Glee Club will carry the
name of iuilford into approxi
mately ten or twelve communi
ties this spring. They will sing
the Alma Mater in these ten or
twelve communities and it is
safe to say that these ten or twelve
communities will have a finer feel
ing and a closer friendship for the
College that this Club represents
than ever before.
The (ilee Club will take an east
ern trip, with concerts in and
around Rich Square, Woodland,
and Roanoke Rapids. Guilford
has many loyal Alumni and
staunch supporters in this sec
tion of the state, and the club will
serve to bring them together to a
large extent. And whenever good
Guilfordians get tegether to heat
good (iuilfordians sing songs dear
to both their hearts there willexist
that something in them all that
will find expression in action for
the good of their Alma Mater.
Evil is ignorance.
Conscious inaccuracy is just
plain lyin'.
If you can't say "No" occasion
ally, you 'must take the conse
quences.
LIFE OF WOODROW WILSON
TOPIC OF T DISCUSSION
V. M. C. A. meeting; on Febru
ary i. was conducted by John
Reynolds who chose as the sub
ject for his talk "The ()vercotning
(obstacles." Short speeches b\
Professor Xewlin. llershel Ma
con, and Mr. l'eele related to the
topic introduced by Mr. Reynolds.
Mr. Reynolds showed by nu
merous illustrations that all men
who have achieved greatness, do
so by overcoming the obstacles
confronting them. He finished by
saying, "It is the obstacles one
meets and the overcoming of
them that makes a person great."
Ex-president Wood row Wilson
was taken as an example bv Pro
fessor Xewlin. ''Everyone should
try to get the spirit of Wilson,
which was the spirit of Jesus
Christ," he said, "and go on until
the obstacles before them are met
and overcome."
Mr. Macon mentioned three
ways of tneeting obstacles: first,
l>v backing down: second, bv go
ing- around; and third, by using
them as stepping stones on which
to climb to greatness.
Y. W. SECRETARY SPEAKS
TO GIRLS ASSOCIATION
"Leaders are just ordinary peo
ple with extraordinary determi
nation," said Miss Ada Stark
weather. financial secretary of the
Y. \\ . C. A. addressing the girls
at the regular meeting of the As
sociation, Thursday evening, Feb
ruary I.
"The world is looking for lead
ers and tlie colleges must supply
them. The Y. \Y. C. A. is looking
for leaders and secretaries among
college students.
"It is the business of the Y. \Y.
C. A., and especially the secretar
ies. to train girls. Even the Girl
Reserves are being trained in or
der that they may become leaders.
"To be a leader of a secretary
means the giving of time and ser
vice. We who cannot give these
two things can give our money in
order to make it possible for the
work of the Y. \Y. C. A. to con
tinue." 1 In speaking jof giving.
Miss Starkweather said, "There
is a way of giving service and
money which may mean the very
creation of life itself, and life is
never created save at the cost of
love and time and patience."
The speaker, in closing, said,
"Leaders are just ordinary peo
ple with extraordinary determina
tion. Each of us can be a leader
if we have the determination."

THE GUILFORDIAN
£ DEPARTMENT NOTES
Spanish Class Studies Valera
The class in Spanish I is soon
to take up Juan Yalera's "Pepita
Jiminez'' for study in class. I'epi
ta is said to lie "a veritable ency
clopedia of religious learning
It is one of' the best of modern
Spanish novels. I'p to this time|
the class has finished as text
books. Enrique Perez Escrich's
mal life and Carrion and Aza's
"Fortuna." a Spanish story of ani
mal life, and Carrion and Aza's
"Xaragueta," a clever little Span
ish play. The supplementary
reading in this course for the first
semester was Perez Galdos' "Don
Perfecta.'" This is considered by
many critics as the author's great
est masterpiece.
Physics
The class in Physics 1 has just
finished the study of magnetism
and is taking up the allied subject
of electrostatics. The work for
! the coming several weeks will
deal with elictricity and sound.
I Wade Hinshaw Company Sings
(Continued from page 1)
zart's prima donna sister-in-law,
j was acted with especial humor.
It remained for Mile. Dorothea
I'hlic, a singer of Linz, Phillip,
the director's nephew,and Mozart,
the great composer himself to
bring about the deception of Di
rector Schriekander. Mile. I'hlic,
sung by Miss Lottice Howell, was
young, beautiful, and the fiancee
of Phillip. Her voice was inde
scribably lovely, and her arias
were sung with almost unbelieva
ble beauty and charity. Hers was
a sweet and youthful voice—full
of romance and happiness, with
just a little touch of piquancy and
pouting. Phillip of Frances Tyler,
had a deep rich baritone voice.
Madame Hofer, sung by Miss
Hazel Huntington, proved to be
a temperamental but highly talent
ed prima donna who sang the airy
music with beauty of tone and ac
curacy of intonation that surpas
sed anything ever heard at Guil
ford College. She executed the
most difficult cadenzas and florid
passages with a grace and ease
that won the approbation of the
entire audience.
Mozart, taken by Charles Mas
singer, looked the part of a young
genius-composer. His voice was
a beautiful full tenor —the kind
of voice that makes youth dream,
and brings romance back into the
hearts of the old.
The costumes were those of
the eighteenth century. Satin
suits with knee trousers and frillv
lace collars and cuffs, were worn
by the men. Mozart is known as
a vain and particular man of fash
ion. The women were lovely in
old-fashioned dresses of silk and
lace: Mile. Uhlic was especially
dainty with a pink rose au ban
deau and a tiny old-fashioned fan
looking for all the world like a
classic Dresden Shepherdess. All
the characters, according to the
fashion of the times, wore white
powdered wigs.
The next Lyceum number will
take place sometime in March,
when Dr. Grenfell, the medical
missionary to Labrador, will be
here.
Miss Frances Barbee of Lexing
ton was here Sunday as the guest
of her brother Tames R. Barbee.
