Page Four David Evans Designs Hats And Dresses for 'Milady' A talent that few students know exist on the Guilford campus is tlmt of designing women's wearing apparel. David Evans lias been interested in this field for several years, his chief concentration being directed towards hats and evening gowns. He first realized that his taste was liked by others in 1939 when lie won first place in the state art contest. This work was done in water colors. The following year lie won first place in the state art contest in the field of creative designing. In 1941-42 lie again won a first prize but this time ill na tional art competition. Costume de signing and fashion sketching were the fields this time. In 1942 he received superior ratings for the two entries which he submitted in an amateur contest. He lias designed evening gowns for actresses Greer Garson and Iledy Lamar r. David says that this year he has not been as busy creating fashions for the ladies because he lacks the inspiration which I'oll.v Korn gave him last year. He designed several original hat crea tions which she modeled. For an original Easter chapeau de sign, David received s~>o last year. At present lie often receives checks for hat designs from friends in the north. David's favorite designers are I.u cieu l.elimg, Adrian, and Omar Kiam.

At the beginning of the Christmas season, if possible on the first Sunday of Advent, lienedikt, his dog, and his 1 wether would start out through the desolate mountains of Iceland in search of sheep which had strayed from the rest of the flock that had been gatli : ered before the winter set in. There were one or two stops for visits among kind friends on the way to the mountains. This year Benedikt was celebrating an anniversary—the 27th time he had made the trip, and be had started making these journeys when he was 27 years old. Through wind and snow and freezing weather the trinity searched for lost sheep. At times they were close to death, but they had to collect all the sheep they could find and return to the village by Christmas morning. On this 27th Advent Journey, however, Christmas day was spent in getting the animals closer to the valley. The author gives lis a simple touch ing story of "The good shepherd givetli bis life for the sheep." (John 10:11). Esther Linda Demeo.

Once when he was a little hoy he heard a woman sing. "Pass Me Not > Gentle Saviour." This song meant a great deal to the woman who sang it because she had written it herself although she was blind. Ever since, that hymn has been David's favorite. When asked about the movies, David admitted he hadn't seen one in over three years as he has to put in long hours of work here and is too tired to go when he gets home. Anyone who takes the time to visit with David will find him very friendly and talkative and interested in hear ing about student activities.
