Member of North Carolina Collegiate Press Association EDITORIAL High School Day is coining April !?G. Make the day surpass the one of last year and it will be the big gest in the history of high school days at Guilford College. It the co-operation of the student body which was demonstrated when we last had representatives from the State high schools with us, is again applied, the day will go over with a boom. Everybody helped to make the last High School Day a grand success. Let everybody help to make this one a greater success. • • * A chain is only as strong is its weakest link. If any Alumnus fails to subscribe his allottment to the endowment, the campaign will fall short just that much. * * • J. \Y. Bailey subscribed to the Guilford endowment; has written and said many encouraging things concerning the College; is now offering to a Guilford student a prize of SIO.OO for a paper writ ten on the influence of John Wool man. Such worthwhile and influ ential efforts of interested friends of the College should win the greatest commendation and praise from the constituents of the Col lege. He * * John Gurney brazier did some of the most superb basketball playing in the contest with Wake Forest that has been winessed on the home floor in many, many years. lie galloped over the floor with race horse grace, and shot goals with such uncanny accura cy, that it was hot necessary to examine the score to see that here was a basketball star of the great est magnitude. * * # "The play's the thing." A. A. Milne's delightful comedj "The Dover Road" is to be presented by the Dramatic Council this spring. If the Council can put this play, which by the way is above the average in literary mer it, across with the finish and skill that has characterized their dra matizations in the past, the pro duction will be worthy of the highest praise. * * * Every class that has gone out from Guilford since 1918 has sub scribed something to the endow ment of the College. It would seem that the present student body is slow in its action in the present crisis. The Alumni have under taken to raise $50,0(10.00 and the spirit of the graduates in this call is wonderful. The student body is expected to raise $10,000.00. The amount is only equal to that which has been subscribed in the Ast, and its subscription to the present amount will cause the fi nal goal to be nearer a reality. In the campaign crisis we should lave some subscription from ev ery student and graduate. Let. ,*veryone who reads this act im will do and send in a pledge. Let's mediately, decide what he or she finish the job, all together, Go! Senoirs Delve into Lab (Continued from page 1) and Gertrude Bundv though the titles of their disertatons are not yet definitely decided upon. Hazel Richardson is planning to trace the "Development of the school system of Guilford coun ty," and Ruth Ragsdale is prepar ing a "History of the Philoma thean Literary Society." Marvin Shore is tracing the genealogy of his own family, from the first Shore who came from Pennsylvania to Bethabara, near Winston-Salem, in 1160. His work has taken him to the records of the Moravians in the Church archives at Salem, and to the State records at Salisbury. All of the earlier records are written in Ger man which makes his task more difficult. Earl Cummings is outlining the newer phase of American democ racy, a subject which will demand extensive reading and studv. Ev • erett McUane will discuss in de tail the Federal Reserve system of the United States. Both of •liese subjects are in connection with a political science major. Hershel Macon and Bascom Shore will each take up some phase of biology, although their plans are not yet matured. Wil liam Blair expects to record some of his latest findings in the Chem istry laboratory. ( )ther seniors have not yet out ined the subjects of their theses. Miss Fry Visits College (Continued from page 1.) make a living in the occupied re gions. where the people are on the verge of starvation. There are out of 80,000 persons in one city only 2,000 at work. The value of the daily wage is less than the cost of two pounds of meat, while the average American daily wage would buy forty pounds of meat. Diseases are prevalent, especially tuberculosis, rickets and scurvy, i The hospitals have been closed because of lack of funds. There is a constant drop in the rate of ex change. Trade is nearly impossi ble. All the ordinary transactions of life are breaking down. "()ne can give these people ma terial aid," said Miss Fry,"in fact there is an organization for this pupose in the L'nited States, with General Allen, who commanded the American army of occupation, as its head. Likewise one may aid by striving to bring about friend ship between nations. Honesty and morality can be carried into national relations. America can not get along without Europe,any more than Europe can get along without America. Friendship, love, generosity, are as necessary between nations as among per sons." THE GUILFORDIAN THE CHRIST WAY' TOPIC OF Y. W. C. A. MEETING "Can I follow It," another of lite "Christ Way" series of lec tures. was tlie subject of Mae Hol lady's talk to the girls at the Y. \\ February 1. The speaker began by asking the question, "What is the Way?" 111(1 answered Christ is the Way. and when we follow Him we are following the Way." These questions were also ask ed. " Can we follow Christ in His conception of greatness? Can we follow Him in Mis understanding of those whom others call bad? Can we follow Christ in His fear less denouncing of wrong? Can we follow Christ in Mis putting' people before things?" Miss Hollady ended by asking. 'How can we follow the Way?" I'he answer cnnie to all these ijuestions when three of the girls told how Zaccheus sacrificed to follow Christ. The story of the calling of Peter, Andrew, James and John was also pointed out as an answer to the questions. The rich young ruler was given as an example of one who was not will ing to sacrifice enough to follow the Christ Way. Dr. Hobbs Discusses "Fool-proof Science"' Dr. L. L. Hobbs began his chapel talk of Friday by a quotation from Dr. Nereus Men clenhall, "A scientific fact is as im portant as a moral principle." He discussed the importance of a for ward-looking mind, and called particular attention to a recent ar ticle by L. l\ Jacks, "Is science fool proof?" With Dr. Hobbs this led to the further question: "Is philosophy fool proof; is re ligion fool proof? "The idea of Mr. Jacks is to place a higher value on facts." the speaker affirmed. "It might be better for us to have a little of Cathie's reverence for facts. It is Mr. Jacks' idea that it is better to discover the universe than to explain it. It would be a fine thing to link religion, science and phil osophy together to discover the universe. If we give religion the leadership we may go too far and reach religious bigotry. Sci ence and philosophy both are nec essary." In conclusion he stated that the good Samaritan's treatment of the man who fell among thieves was not good medical treatment, neither was the practice of the doctor who bound a green walnut to the arm of a patient suffering with blood poison. He thus im plied that one needs to use science philosophy and religion, in theii proper spheres, and to co-ordinate their work. Miss Ruth Ragsdale spent the week-end with relatives in (ireensboro.
