EDITORAL It is now time to begin putting off •work to be done during the Christmas holidays. Incidentally, starting with the 22nd and ending with the sth, we will have 14 holly-days. The Winston-Salem Journal stated that "Shirt" Smith was as good at "hitting the basket" as he was at "missing the bat." It has been noted that President Coolidge didn't mention Red Grange in his address to Congress! Well, he has never been very coolidgiate anyway. According to Jo Jo's accounts, Old Boreas, Sprightly Jack, and Jupiter j Pluius set December 1 as the time to start work they commenced according to schedule. It is alleged that a member of the faculty went into a senior boy's room a few days ago and found the occupant studying. lie immediately assumed a sympathetic tone and asked him, "What's the matter?" Lenoir and Wake Forest are having a few words about who beat Guilford the worse in football. Football season is over; a more timely topic is: what will be the outcome of the basketball situation. There's room for discussion there! "Iron Man Seabock," who drove a Ford car continuously for over 110 hours could not qualify for a role in "Adam and Fva. It is reported that he was exhausted with this little drive which took no brain work; the chara cters in "Adam and Eva' practice strenuously for nearly that long, doing intense concentrated labor! Mrs. Rusack, to Jo Paul: Miss Paul, you mustn't laugh out loud in the classroom. Jo Paul: I didn't mean to do it. I was smi'ing and the smile busted. Elsie: "Del. what's the shape of a kiss?" Del: "Give me one and we'll call it square." "Niggali, l'se suali sorry fo' you.' said a negro pugilist to his opponent as they squared off. "I w'as born with boxing gloves on." "Mebbe you wuz," retorted his chal lenger, "and ah reckon youse gwine to die de same way." ON HOUSE-GLEANING The stack-room of the library seems to have been hit by the little end of a tornado, which has worked havoc with orderly steel shelves and com posed dusty volumes. At least that is the impression that a desperate reporter pets when he wanders in search of news.. Apparently the tornado has just finished its work and left the scene so that one is likely to find stray mice, musty magazine files, radiator plugs and every thing that a complete revolution is likely to turn up. in shapely confusion and ready to be described by an agile pen. However no such catastrophe has descended upon Ihe College's colles tion of preserved knowledge. A close inspection and a little more thought would suffice to establish the fact that no well-meaning cyclone would hurl down the stacks of biblical and religious essays and leave thier next, shelf neighbors intact with dust un disturbed. Nor would it return in another playful mood and dash these same books back into place nice and clean and with the same gust dis lodge the whole collection of books of the next kindred subject just along side. It is simply the height of pre winter house-cleaning. Hence the apparent upheaval! WEBSTERIANS INSTALL NEW ADMINISTRATION The principal event at the meeting of the Websterian Literary Society Friday night was the instalation of a new regime of officers. Elton War rick was installed to head the organiza tion during the next term. His asso ciate officers are Walter Robertson, Vice-President, K1 wood Parker, Secre tary. Raymond Ebert, Assistant Secre tary, and Paul Ireland, Marshal. The literary program was mainly of an extempo-aneous nature. Ihe meet ing was entertained by two impromptu debates of an humorous order. Walter Robertson guve a well prepared read ing on the "Lincoln's Life as Presi dent." The last number offered was a reading by Kay Parrish. ZATASIANS ENTERTAINEO BY All ORGINAL STUNT A strikingly original program was i given in the meeting >f the Zatasian Literary Society. Friday evening. Zelma Hoi lady read several short, humorous self lions of modern verse. This number was followed by a "Melo drama" read by Alice Hazard and acted j out by a number of the members of , the Society. l! proved to be a very cleever stunt and was well received by the whole society. The following new officers were j elected O'a Nicholson, persident: ; Edith Hedgecock, secretary, and Sarah Jinnette, Marshall. FORTY FIRST ANNUAL WEB STER IAN CONTEST (Continued from page I.) away from the a mateurs, lie also , advocated immediate restriction of I immigration. Lastly he advised mak- j ing the poli e force of a semi-military i order. With these improvements, he argued, better conditions would soon obtain. Puu' Swanson, who di : cussed Per manent Peace through Moral Educa tion." held that with the right kind of home training the nations of the work could be so educated in one gen- | (-ration as to make war a ridiculous impossibility. Loyless Melvin, whose topic was "Obedience," gave a brief discussion of the conquest of self and suggested methods of overcoming the tendency toward pursuit of happiness without regard for the welfare of others and the human meakness of consider ing the will of self the only law. The judges of the contest were Pro. Ilersal Macon, of the Richard J. Reynolds High School in Winston- Salem, Mr. Robert Frazier of Greens boro, and Dr. Elwood C. Perisho, of Guilford College.
