VILLAGE PARTY
“Qreenwlch Village" was the aceae
of much merry-xnakiDg on Monday
atteraoon from 4:30 to 6 o’clock,
when the Seniors paid tlieir first
visit to the Village under the lead
ership o£ Mias Ida Poteat. At tlie
“Sign of the Purple Pup," waa their
first stop, where the guests were shown
examples of ultra-modern art, espe
cially of cnblsts, futurists, tactillstr:,
soul expressionists, dadaists, vitalists
and ffeakists. From this “Art Mecca"
they were (Uvectecl to various attractive
Inns, among which '‘The Rabbit Hole,”
'•The Mad Hatter.” "Blue Horse,”
"The Puppy Cat,” were most familiar
Here tea and cakea were aerved, a^pi
the guests were allowed the privilege
of displaying their talent for interpre
tative art. An unusual amount of
fun was gained from these niaste
pieces. Sonia, the belle of the Viliage,
next oftei*ed for sale odd wares and
trinkets, the price of which was an
emotion. iSach one of the Seniora
eagerly waited her opportunity to bur.
and none were disappointed. Thraugli-
out the entire Village originality was
developed to the superlative degree
and the guests were not slow to recog
nize this fjict. After thaniis had been
expressed in a peppy manner, highly
saflsfactory in the Village, the »uesia
departed, menially declaring ihat Miss
Ida had given them a most charming
and delightful picture of that re
nowned quarter.
OK TIIISJ
The old adage that "everything has
a piano nf its own, and In its plf.cn
should be” Is well enoiigli known and
understood, but all too Infrequently
is this truth applieil to the practical
routine of our school life. School
dresses are school dresses and dinner
Is dinner, and so will each remain,
true lo iLaeli', and to each other,
throughout all ages! The incongruity
of tlie situation, tiierefore, is evident
when a girl appears ui the dlnl'i'
room at night clad in the, necessarily,
rumpled gingham dress w’hich she has
worn all day to classes and elsewhere.
Xot that gingham dresses arc to be
scoi'ned—not that at all—but they, at
least, miist bo fresh looking, and, if
possible, different from the previous
attire of the day. Of course, givla
In the swiftly moving College Circle,
are frequently "busy," indeed, but to
present such an excuse for a carete.ss
appearance at meals, especially at the
one in the evening, is nothing but
sheer nonsense. Ten minutes would
complete the transformation, and oftnn
less, If one Is not too slow. After al'.,
It's but a matter of habit and a wee
bit of thought, but when such minor
details are to convey such Important
ImprosBiona, they’re worthy of more
than passing consideration on our
part.

essays, through technical sti’ategy of
a different and unusnal sort, the con
version of fifty most youthful, viva
cious and happy-go-lucky “Inmutes”
of a typical strait-jacket boarding
school into more charming, feminine
and versatile products of "The Gbarm
School."
Of course he meets opposition in
the form of perplexing problems which
naturally present themselves to so
young and handsome a sovereign so
evidently out of his element, but with
remarkable ingemiity he proves mas
ter of liimaelf and forthwith properly
loses his heart, in a continuous
moment of masculine weakness, and
gracefully succumbs to the endearing
charms of the moat charming of the
charming mombers of tlie School of
Charm.
Frankly, “The Charm School,”
which is being presented by the
Phllaretlan Society on April 28th, is
an education within itself. You can't
afford to run the extreme risk of over
looking one element of the procesa so
strikingly illustrated In this unusually
charming little play.

While the singer's upper register Is

STAY-IN-SCHOOL IDEA

JIKIlEPmt >EXT FALL
Notable among the many activities
in which Meredith manifests a vital
interest, and we hope evidences
equally as great an influence, Is the
broad Held of expansion offering op
portunity for stimulating enthusiasm
among high school stu'flents to remain
In high school until graduation is
effected and follow up such au ex-
collont lead with immediate attend
ance at some institution of higher
learning.
Favorable impression in regard to
work of this sort was made at a
“Stay-in*School” program, arranged by
the Burlington High School and ren
dered at Burlington on April 13. at
which affair Meredith was represented
by Barrt3 Pritchett.
The order of procedure was unusual
as well as appealing in its origin
ality, short talks by representatives
from several colleges of the State
being interspersed with appropriate
and peppy songs complimentary to
tho respective speakers, and interest
ing numbers presented b'y Burlington
High students.
Of course girls at high school in
Burlington who are fully contemplat
ing attendance at Meredith command
our espeolal interest and it is gratify
ing to learn that five Seniors, now
registered at this high school, have
applied for entrance at Meredith for
the Fall of 1923.
Colleges represented at this ©vent
Included Meredith, North Carolina Col
lege, Greensboro College, Elon, Trin
ity, Salem, Guilford and Hast Carolina
Teachors Training School, and It is
with assurance of their support that
we voice congratulationa to Burling
ton High School for intense enthu
siasm, and express appreciation of
cordial hospitality afforded her guests.

Debating made its initial appear
ance of the year in the Astro Socicty
on Sat\irday evening, April 14, in the
query, “Resolved, That a Policy of
Further Material Restriction of Immi
gration he Adopted by tho United
States.” The alTlriuatlvo side was ably
upheld by Elsie Elkins and Martha
Liverraon and the negative rnao to
eloquence through tho efforts of
Elizabeth Purnell and Alberta Butler.
Both sides presented excellent material
in good form yet the judges unani
mously favored the negative. It Is
a source of much pleasure to many
lovers of true literary merit to see the
members take such active interest in
this type of literary expression. We
are proud to once more welcome back
to our halls the debate as an extra
curricular activity and hope that It
will see fit to remain long with us.
