Page 4 PHILOMATHEANS FEATURE A MUSICAL PROGRAM An extemporaneous program, con sisting of musical members, only, was given by the Philomatheans last Fri day evening. The first number was a piano solo by Miss Edith Hollowell. Ethel Watkins accompanied by Lala Durham then sang "The Sunshine of Your Smiles." A very enjoyable num ber was a vocal duet "When the Stars are Shining," by Louise Frazier and Virginia Galloway, with Beatrice Elli ott accompanist Miss Chandos Kimrey received a loud applause after singing several popular songs. Victrola music for the evening was furnished by Vir ginia Pamperin. The last number on the program, an instrumental duet, "Over the Hill and Dale," given by Beatrice Elliott and Lalah Durham, was especially good. This program showed that the Philomathean literary society is not lacking in its musical talent and ability. New officers were elected as follows: Inez White, president; Lalah Hassel, secretary; and Lalah Durham, marshal. RISE OF DRAMA STUDIED RY ZATASIAN SOCIETY The Zatasian society successfully car ried out a survey of the Rise of Drama, in its regular meeting last week. Begin ning with the origin of tragedy in the earliest days, drama in its various pras es with special attention to some of the classical masterpieces, was reviewed. Nida Lee Blalock with her paper "Origin of Tragedy Until 1660" paved the way for a review of Euripides' play "Helen" by Ruth Levering. "Frogs" by Aristephones was partially read, by Katherine Shields. Shifting from the classicists to the beginning of the modern drama, Ina Mixon gave an original criticism of Shakespeare's "Hamlet," which served as a background for a discussion by Sara Hodges on the "Tendencies of the Modern Drama," with special attention to the rapid strides within recent years. Ruth Lane entertained the society with music. The following officers were elected for the next term: Bessie Phipps, president; Margaret Townsend, secre tary; Berta Holliday, marshal. BUSINESS MATTERS CLAIM WEB. SOCIETY'S ATTENTION The last meeting of the Websterian literary society was turned largely into a business session, though a rather hot ly contested debate was a part of the program. The question for discussion was: "Resolved: that, Congress should be given power by a constitutional ammendment to enact uniform marriage and divorce laws for the United States." Joe Welborn, the affirmative speaker, presented facts, figures and cogent ar guments for his side of the question and gave the be?t speech of the evening. Elton Warrick and James Howell de fended the negative, which side won the decision of the judges. A great deal of society business was discussed and passed upon. The society instructed the secretary to write a letter of sympathy to Mrs. L. Lea White. A motion was njade and carried that the society present a memorial program for Prof. L. Lea White in the near future. John Cude. the critic for the evening, gave a brief and helpful critic's report and the society adjourned. HENRY CLAYS INSTALL HEW OFFICERS AT MEETING The Henry Clay program last Friday evening was one of unusual interest. Although the debate was extemporane ous, it contained plenty of pep and was full of good argument. Byron A. Ila worth gave an interesting reading to the society. Officers for the next term were in stalled and great prospects and accom plishments were pictured to the society by both the retiring and new officres. The society was glad to reinstate Walter Beck into membership. SIX MEN CHOSEN FOR STUDENTS' ADVISORY COMMITTEE Six of the authorized eight of the men have been chosen to represent the men of Guilford in the capacity of rep resentatives of the men's student body at large. According to present plans two men from each class are to be chosen and one man from the student body at large to serve as chairman. This council of nine members is to represent the men in any matters of so cial or disciplinary importance that may come up, and is expected to solve many of the lifficulties of student life and will insure a more perfect understanding be tween faculty and students. It was expressly understood and stat ed by the men at a mass meeting that it is not a "Students' Government" coun cil but only a mediating council. The men chosen so far are: seniors, John W. Frazier, Robert Marshall; juniors, Ne reus English, Elton Warrick; sopho mores, James Joyce, Gilmer Sparger. DOLLY PAYNE MADISON (Continued from page one) his wife from the monthly meeting at Cedar Creek in Virginia, dated twelfth of tenth month, seventeen-sixty-five, which was read and accepted." From that day until February 12, 1769, the Paynes Were members of the meetng at New Garden, where their doings are recorded in books now yellow with age and ragged with handling. The termi nation of their stay is recorded in the following minute, dated February 25, 1769: "The Friends continued last meet ing to correct the certificate of John Payne, having complied, therewith, and produced it to this, which was read and signed." In the records of births of the New Garden meeting there is the following entry: "Dolly, their daughter, was born ye 20 of ye 5 mo. 1768." The "their" refers to John Payne and Mary Payne whose birth entries precede. Had the Paynes stayed on at New Gar den a few years they would have seen the lordly Cornwallis lead his troops through the peaceful little villiage and make his last hopeful camp in sight of the twinkling fires of Green's men across the valley. It is said that, following the battle of Guilford Courthouse, the old Friends meeting house, which stood near the New Garden oak, Was turned into a hospital where the wounded were cared for in the best manner possible. There are still persons living who have seen blood stains on the walls of the old meeting house which they were told, were placed there by the wounded soldiers. These marks must have been made on lumber while it was stored in the older building, if they were made at all. The large two story building was not built until after the Revolution. The soldiers who died were buried under the spreading oak, in a single large grave. This old oak still stands as a mute witness of those stirring times. But the Paynes had gone back to their old Virginia home and taken "Lit lle Dolly" with them, a Quakeress 0 f about nine months. They left little thai has reinanied to I lie present day, to tell of their brief stay in the community. VOCAL STUDENT'S RECITAL (Continued from pase one) field. 6. Si mes vers aviaient des ailes, R.
