I would Jikc to say a few words fiboiit girls not getting calls when other girls arc to blame for if. Sometimes a girl who is oxpocting a call is waiting near the ’phone and she vkindly answers the ’phono when it rings. And she very kindly tells the person calling that the girl wanted is sick or maybe gone oft'. And she has said the first thing she thought without even knowing whether or not she’s right. AYIuit if that call were im portant, The girl answering never knows and it seems to mo that if she’s going to kindly answer the ’phone, she ought kindly to make some effort to find the girl wanted. Besides, what docs that outsider think of lleredith wiicn he never can get who he wants, when there’s always something wrong. People out side think finally it’s no use to call, girls can’t be gotten anyhow, so our friends quit calling—all i)ecansc some girl so kindly tells them every time, without finding out, that w(> arc sick, gone off, dead br something of Hk’ sort, P>. iEoonE. The delegafcs from the Acorn aiul The Tirlff to the fourth sciiii-annnal convention of the iS^orth Carolina Collegiate Pross Asso ciation, which met at AVake Forest, April 21 anl 22, luivc just rct\irned. In many rcs- ))ccts, this recent nu'ctiug may be considered the best tlic a-ssociation has over held. If was fearetl by .inany that fliese conventions were gradually becoming merely social func tions, but after this meeting of real enthusi asm, we are sure that the association has been placed on a firm footing and is not in dan ger of being can-icd olf by any “infant’s di sease.” A s})irit of serious endeavor and a firm resolution to accomplisli something worth-while charactoriml each session of the convention. For sonic time if had been felt liy some that foo nnich stress had been placed on the exchange of inter-collegiate news—an attempt to nnike this the binding link between the college ])ublications. After nmch dis cussion and exchange of views, it was voted to place tliis news exchange on a volutifnry basis. Furthermore, as a real binding link, it M’as decided to establish a Pureau of Criti cism. 'J’his is to bo headed by the sccond vice-president, and is to publish The Colleeje J'ress within the first fen days of each col lege month. This bulletin is to contain help ful criticism, instruction, and suggestion, and is to bo the official organ of the convention. And Mereditii is indeed fortunate to have these embryonic joui*nalists {accept her invi tation to meet hero in the fall of 1022 for the fifth semi-annual convention. Furthermore, DR. HERBERT ROYSTER MAKES AN ADDRESS Cunttmicd /Tom ! Hrains, without which success in any profes sion is impossible; health, so that the phy- sicjuc can endure the continual strain; and character to do tlie I'iglit thing and to over come the uumifiild te!ii]>tiifions wliich assail H doctor. "'riie fascinating thing iihoiit the medical profession,” said Dr. Poyster, “is its jivo- 'iressiveness.” A doctor must learn some thing new every day and unlearn something fhat he knew bcfor‘ in order to keep aln’oast of the latest thing in his ]H'ofession. One striking remark of Dr. ]ioyster’s was, “In a trade one must make money in order to acliicve fame, in a profession one must achieve fame in order to make money.” lie c!osel by saying tiiat one planning to enter the medical field nnisf get the three primarv parts of the preparation and the three highei characteristics and also remember that it is a ])rofession and not a trade. the association is fortunate in its election of Hiss Alico Lowe, inconiing editor of The Tmg as its president, and Miss Fannie Paul, incoming editor of the Acom, as its secretary. Under tlie capable administration of those and the other officers, we are sure the associa tion will make a long stride in making the ‘N’. C. C. P. A. a vital factor in college jour nalism. !N’o Y. W. C. A. service, perhaps, has aroused quite so much interest and discussioji among tlie students as has that of las'. Sun day evening in which the Religion, of Jesus Christ was the subject of a lecturo given by Dr. Carl C. Taylor of State Col’oge. This lecture was 'a summary, or brief survey of a series of lectures delivered by Dr. Taylor to the y. j\I. C. A. of the city, and each of his several toi)ies was briefly discussed. The leading idea was that every Christian shoiild )e a teacher, or rather a preacher. T'le grcaf- cst opportunity of tlie college teaclier or stu dent, he said, waf to teacli the religion of Christ by weaving it into all that he or she did or said. He said further that the Chris tian religion if applied to the individual alone was tlie most radical doctrinc in existenee. but on the other hand if projierly applied, al ways with a view toward promoting the king dom of Ood, rather than with the “patent medicine” view, should be a somewhat Uto pian agency. -Vltliough the lectui'c was interpreted in various ways, if is quite evident that it was a source of food for thought. (Jirls, what about the PInc Ridge Confcr- nce? Don’t you want to go? You have just a mere idea of tlio fun and benefits of fered by those ten days given you by the pic tures and notes on the Y. "W. C. A bulletin board. Don’t you want to go and experience the real thing? Now, you know the time, expenses, and something of the work and play of flic j)arties; think about it, plan to go. Let’s do iMeredith justice there this year more than over before. Let’s be there, wide awake! Iona Daniels and Lillian Evans spent Mon- lay afternoon with Jtrs. W. M. Upchurch.
