"The Year's' Festivals" was the theme
of the Philomathean Literary Society
program last Friday night.
The society hall was lighted in a
way to give a twilight effect for several
of the numbers. The first number, an
introduction, was given by Kathleen
Reynolds. Miss Reynolds told why
such a program was to be given.
"The Origin and Customs of New
Year" was discussed by Myrtle Rich
ardson. Ruby Hall represented Saint
Valentine's Day in costume and recited
an original poem.
All Fools' Day, Easter, Hallowe'en,
Thanksgiving and Christmas were dis
cussed and the origin of each given.
Espie Neece explained the origin and
customs of Thanksgiving. The fellow
ship between the white man and In
dian was brought out by costume illus
tration of a Pilgrim Father—Elizabeth
Braswell, and an Indian, Nellie Thom
as, as they sat together in the twilight
and smoked the "pipe of peace."
The last number was a representa
tion of Christmas and the Christmas
spirit. This festival was represented
by Adalia Futrelle in costume, and
Sallie Wilkius gave an effective expla
nation of its meaning.

"The Living Music of American
Youth" was the subject of the program
of the regular meeting of the Zatasian
Literary Society last Friday evening.
Carrie Teague and Isabella Jinnette,
dressed as two small girls in red
checked pinafores, first entered and
sang a duet, "I Don't Want to Play in
Your Back Yard," accompanied by
Frances Osborne. Their very clever
impersonation of the song was a fitting
beginning for the program. The "Life
of Irving Berlin" was reviewed by Ai
leen Beeson. She showed in her paper
the settings which caused this "Jazz
King" to write a number of his songs
that have taken American youth by
storm. Bernice Henley, Catherine Cox,
and Frances Osborne sang "If I Knew
I'd Find You," by Irving Berlin. The
fourth number, "At Dusk," was very
successfully interpreted by My ray Gam
ble, who by candle-light played the gui
tar and sang several selections. In
the same soft light, the last number,
"The Dance," by Mabel Shipp, was very
effective.

Miscellaneous is the word that best
describes the program of the Henry
Clay Literary Society for last Friday
night. Theodore Daub gave a graphic
and vivid account of the life of North
Carolina's venerable statesman, Henry
Clay. He set forth the contributions
of "the great pacificator" to the Union
and laid special emphasis on his devo
tion to this country.
A brief interesting account of the life
of Washington was given by Ilale New
lin. He gave the important events in
the life of "The Father of Our Coun
try" and enumerated some of his con
tributions to the United States.
An extemporaneous debate: "Re
solved. That bobbed hair is detrimental
to the morals of women" caused the
society much merriment. Worth Mackie
presented the affirmative argument,
while Waldo Williams upheld the nega
tive.

The Websterian Literary Society en
joyed a brief program Friday night,
February 25, 1927. The main feature
of the evening was a debate, "Resolved,
That tlie inter-allied war debt should
be cancelled." The affirmative side was
well represented by Graham Allan and
Ralph Richardson, who argued that the
war was part ours from the beginning
and should we now play the part of
Shylock and watch the other nations
go to destruction? Reuben Bundy cred
itably upheld the negative side, pro
pounding such strong argument that he
won the judges' decision. He argued
that the war was not our war and
should we mercilessly waste our na
tion's wealth with petty disputes of
other countries?
The second and last number was
"My Autobiography," by Paul Jassi
medes.
Sometimes we quite pride ourselves
upon our ability to "size up" people,
to distinguish skilfully and unerringly
between the worthy and worthless, the
genuine and the veneered. But who
among us has the courage conscientious
ly or critically to turn the microscopic
eye upon himself, or put himself in
tlie scales balance by his own judg
ment—Shreveport Hi Life, Shreveport,
Louisiana.

ELON REPEATS
Last Thursday night Guilford bowed
to Elon in a hard fought game on the
latter's court. Guilford was handi
capped by the absence of Moore from
the line-up and Elon got the tip-off con
stantly. Before the game was three
minutes old Guilford had scored five
points to Elon's one. The Christians
gradually overcame the lead however
and just before the end of the half
started a rally that gave them an eight
point lead and the score stood 22 to 14.
Guilford started a drive in the second
half that brought them within five
points of their opponents, but due to
missing crip shots and the momentary
crumbling of the Quaker defense Elon
forged ahead and was never in danger
again.
Guilford's passing and general team
work was far superior to what it was
when the Quakers played the Christians
on the local court. Ayers and Griffin
were the outstanding players for the
Quakers. Griffin's floor work drew the
admiration of all, and Ayers' spec
tacular shooting and close guarding
kept the Elon margin of victory down.
! Elon displayed good team work
throughout, but Newman led the Chris
tians' attack with 17 points to his cred
it. Bock and Kelly also put up a good
game for the Christians.

HIGH POINT WINS
Guilford ended her court season Fri
day night with a lose. High Point took
the Quakers into camp to the tune of
30-18. The first few minutes of the
game looked like a riot. The Panthers
got going and couldn't stop for almost
a quarter. This lead they piled up
was never threatened by Guilford.
Both teams played good basketball the
second half, but not good enough to
change the winners' end of the scorinr
much. The first half ended 18-5 in
favor of High Point.
Thompson and Mitchell each scored
11 points for the visitors and Mulligan
kept things moving with good passing
and floor work. It was this rapid-fire
team work that floored the Quaker
quint.
In the second half, as always, Guil
ford came out of her stupor and began
to show signs of life. They played good
ball, exceptional basket ball for them,
but they could not win nor even attain
a threatening position. Pamperin led
the scoring for the Quakers with six,
with Ayres close to him with five points.

Apologies to Poe
"One night as I lay thinking,
Of the pleasant days of yore,
I heard a swishing, swashing,
Just outside my bedroom door;
Up the ball a funny clicking,
And some shuffling on the floor:
'Twas my sister in galoshes—
Only that and nothing more."
—The Maroon and White.
