A Thanksgiving program was pre
sented in the Zatasian Literary Society
011 Friday evening. Kathryn Owen
presented the "Origin of Thanksgiving"
in an interesting manner, tracing it
from the first proclamation of a day of
thanks by Governor Bradford, to the
present time. She dealt especially with
the origin of our Thanksgiving customs.
Annie Bay read two poems, "Every Day
is Thanksgiving Day" and "The Child's
World." The last number was a story
by Mary Ellen Lassiter, "Ye Ancient
Game of Football as Played in the Days
of Henry VIII." This story was chosen
because of the popular connection of

gan to shyly creep into the doors of
the lions' den. In their rushed prep
aration some of the hosts had failed or
forgotten to straighten up recently
used lounges while others overlooked
the bolting of wardrobe doors. By
some marvelous sense of direction and
bearing on the part of the visitors not
a lamb was lost in the home of the
ferocious.
The annual Thanksgiving service at
the church was held at 11:00. After the
service at the church was over there
seemed to be a mad rush for the dining

halls where countless corpses, already
dressed, awaited the heartless teeth of
hungry lambs and lions.
In the afternoon, after the lions vis
ited the lambs, an important and spec
tacular hockey game, the faculty vs. the
girls, was played on the girls' hockey
field. Due mainly to the endurance of
Prof. Purdam and the skillful playing
of Prof. Paneoast, the faculty won.
The last number of the day's program
was a Brunswick stew held in the woods
about a half mile from the college.
Thus ended a busy but happy day—and
the night was clear but quiet.
SCHOLASTIC REPORT IS
BETTER THAN BEFORE
(Continued from Page One)
The first quarter of the previous
year could boast of only two such stu
dents. Thirty-three persons made all
A's and B's, for the preceeding year the
number was twenty-one.
Every quarter has a few who for
some reason or other fall behind in
passing their work; however, there
were only 28 who did not pass nine
hours work during the first quarter (for
1926, 12); three who passed only one
course (1926 had 11 people who did no
more); one who passed no work (there
were five for the preceeding year.)
Even this list of laggers has diminished,
especially when one considers that this
year has 31 more students enrolled
than last year.
The teacher was explaining the mean
ing of some new words to her class of
youngsters.
"An anecdote," said she, "is a short
funny tale."
This having been repeated in chorus
by the children, the teacher continued:
"And now I want you to write a sen
tence containing the word 'anecdote.'"
This was one of the sentences pre
sented for her consideration:
"A rabbit has four legs and an anec
dote."
She was distinctly a foreigner—she
had asked for talcum powder.
"Meunen's?" asked the clerk.
"No, vimmin's."
"Want it scented?"
"No, ay better take it with ine."
Diner: "Say, waiter, 111 have lamb
chops with potatoes, and have the chops
lean."
Waiter: "Which way, sir?"— The Sa
lemite.

RAYMOND THOMAS, KING'S COACH
Guilford College Freshman basketball
team met King High Wednesday night,
as their second opponents. The high
school took the lead early in the game,
but were unfortunate in being out
classed before the half was over. Coach
Thomas talked to the Kings at the half
and they displayed a shooting frolic
in the first few minutes of the second
half. However, the game ended with
a 38-point score piled up against their
score of 22. Meadows, for King, and
Haworth, for Guilford, excelled the
others in high score.
