Miss Minnie Kopf spoke in chape!

of Fruits." She stated that may varie
ties of fruits of today have gone

MAIE HOLLADY STARS IN THE
PLAY "THE GOOSE HANGS
HIGH," SPRING PRODUCTION
COSTUMING EXCELLENT
Stage Setting Ant! Direction Best Of
Recent Productions
I he spring play ''The Goose Hangs
lligh by Lewis Beach, was presented
by the Dramatic Council in Memorial
Hall, March 20. The production
proved a great success and delighted
the large and enthusiastic audience.
First honors go to Maie Hollady who
played the role of Eunice Ing; Is, the
wife of Bernard Ingals, (Carey Reece)
Miss Hollady won a place in the hearts
of her audience with her gentle man
er, loving disposition and tactful dis
cipline in managing her children. Miss
Hollady at all times was master of her
audience and played her part with an
air and manner of professional.
Carey Reece playing the difficult role
nf father of the very modern family
showed exceptional talent and at the
same time seemed to live his part.
Mr. Reece interpreted well the part
of a parent who gave his whole life
that his children might h; ve the op
portunity of a college education.
The greater amount of amusement
was furnished by the thought to be
callous and flippant college twins,
Virinia Painperin ad Morris Trotter.
It cannot be denied that they were
readily accepted a* twins, not only in
looks but in actions. Their lively
nature and bubbling mischievous dis
position called for many witty remarks
that created much laughter from the
audience. When it came time to be
serious, however, they were convinc
ing in that, underneath much merry
makig. there can be found sensible . nd
stable material.
Blanche Spencer and Warren T ylor
as Digmar Carroll and Hugh Ingals
were capital in their romantic affair.
Miss Spencer is g'fted in portraying
the sincerity of a role of this sort.
Mr. Taylor much admired for his
e sy delivery anil his clever casual re
marks expecially in teasing granny.
The aristocratic air. and amusing
facial expressions of Ella Mae Friddle,
won for Granny a place of distinction.
Much laughter was brought forth by
... j;r( , jf.. an |\ ry outspoken man
ner.
Thi -e wishing to zet in with society
hail a very clever way taught them by
the experience of Mover Sink, play
ing the part of social climber, Leo
Day. Mr. Sink put much vim into this
part, as a man given to such innpiria
tion would. His well acted tactless
manner in which he tried to ascend

BR. BINFORD SPEAKS AT Y
ON CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP
Jesus IT as A ' 'art Who Enjoyed
Life And Was Happy,
No: S'id
Dr. Binford spoke on Christian
Fellowship at Y. M C. A. Thursday
night bef v a large audience.
T'-ra'og! ns anil traditions have given
us the erroneous ide.i that Jesus was
i sa I mail of infinite wan without
I rn*. appreciation of cheerfulness and
radiant happiness. However, this is a
misconception of the Savior's attitude.
He was a lover of society. He gloried
in the good cheer of life. God also is
cheerful and they who never laugh >r
r-ing are out of tune with the infinite.
The heart of the college should cen
ter around our Christian Associations.
From them we should radiate out
cheer, joy and enthusiasm and from the
Y. M. the men of Guilford College
should get in close personal contact
with Jesus Christ. We can make the
Y. M. glorious with joy and good fel
lowship. The finest possible feeling
of srtisfaction comes only from the
achievement of some worthy aim. We
can not do anything more glorious than
to put Jesus Christ acrbss to the men
of Guilford College. Let us bind our
selves together to make the spirit of
Jesus Christ a dominant force here in
our community.

206 A. D.; second, 206 to 589 A. D. at
which time the first struggle with the
Tartars ended; third, 589 to 1644; and

ple of today far back into their errly
history as the time of their greatest
glory.
