MISS WEBB LECTURES AT MUSIC HOUR On Thursday, October25th the week ly music hour took the form of a talk on the violin, and violin playing. Miss Webb began by telling her audience the pleosures as well as the diffculties of violin study, not only as a solo in strument, but also as one part of an orchestral whole. She explained the mistaken illusion that one must be able to sing or play the piano, else there would be no hope of the violin being other than an instrument of torture in his hands. She then dis cussed the construction of the instru ment and explained to her audience different effects which often surprise and puzzle those who know little about violin playing. These were il- lustrted by Miss Laura Howell who skilfully played several passages. The lecture was followed by a short programme of violin numbers, selected to illustrate combinations of instru ments. The programme was as fol lows Violin Duet—Esther Efird and Eli zabeth Parker. Violin Solo, with Harp accompani ment—Mary Pfohl and Eleanor Shaff- ner. Violin Solo with Organ accompani ment—Isalbel Wenhold. Violin Solo with Fiona accompani ment—Laura Howell. Miss Webb stressed the fact that the study of the violin is well worth while. After this interesting lecture her audience will be better able to appreciate violin playing because of a wider knowledge of the technique of this instrument. MISS RACHEL DAVIS IN INFIRMARY. Miss Rachel Davis is at present in the infirmary os a result of an accident which occurred Friday evening. She was to play a part in the program at the Y. W. C. A. meeting, and was hurrying to the recreation room when she fell the entire flight of. stairs. The fall resulted in a bad cut on her head, but Dr. Pfolil was immediately summoned, and stitches were taken. The school extends to Miss Davis best wishes for a speedy recovery. An Unincorporated Corporation— Miss Forman—“Do corporations have to have charters?” Nettie Allen—“They don’t if they are not incorporated.” WORLD NEWS Mrs. Meinung—“Would you like to put small feather stitching on this garment?” Freshman—“I would; but really, 1 have no small feathers.” (Continued from page one) Tlie revolt started Monday, with General Metaxas as leader, but was put down with little difficulty, al though some fighting resulted, and there were heavy casualties in the rebel ranks. One of the more im portant battles, near Chalcis, occur red when Colonel Diras and his de tachment had a skirmish with a small portion of the national army under General Othonios. There were fourteen hundred mutineers, eight hundred of whom were taken prisoners. At Schismature and Katerina the rebels fled, and their officers were captured. The same news comes of Zeiras from Saloniki. Colonel Plastiras also fled the revolution which resulted in the downfall of King Constantine. It is believed that the uprisings in Macdonia and Peloponessus will soon end.

Miss Burrell, explaining problem to class in geometry—^“Every one please watch the blackboard when I run thru it again.” The President and Cabinet And governors of every State Must help the dry enforcement laws And everyone co-operate. President Coolidge very forcibly addressed the meeting of thirty- seven governors on the subject of dry enforcement. He presented the following six points: Co-opera tion by national authorities in all enforcement activities; state educa tional endeavors in behalf of tem perance ; conventions of municipal, county and state enforcement offi cials and of the press; calls by the governors upon the prosecuting at torneys; adoption by the governors and federal government of some action to impress lawless citizens with the sanctity of the law. Gaovernor Purviss, of Minnesota, suggested a seventh point, that the national government shall arrange with state boards of education to teach children in the schools the re sults of the use of alcoholic bever ages. All those present seemed heartily in favor of these provis ions except Governor Ritchie and Governor Smith, who accepted them—with reservations. The im portance of law enforcement was stressed, both in relation to the present issue and on the general principle of respect for the Con stitution. FRESHMEN Sophmores, Juniors and Seniors !
