The Chaplain’s exercise was the loveliest thing on the program. A chapter from the charming story of Esther was read, and a few well placed comments on our place in life, like that ot Esther, were made. Current events by Velma Poplin was both entertaining and instructive. The vocal solo which followed by Hannie Cox, was enjoyed for its melody and sweetness.

Again the Astros met to enjoy their weekly program. After a bit of dis cussion and regular preliminaries, the members of the musical committee took charge. Interesting! It seems as if they tried themselves along this line. Not only was it interesting but put on one of the most uplifting and beneficial grograms ever presented at Meredith College. Lillian Rouse read a synopsis of Gounod’s Opera from Faust which held the attention of everyone. As she read, the opera was Illustrated twice with vocal solos, Janet Hollo- mon was the first to sing. Her tone was such that every one sat thrilled during the entire time and the picture was painted on the minds of all as she sang. Katherine Shields was the other to add to the attractiveness ot the reading. The sweetness In her singing was indeed fitting, emphasiz ing the feeling of the opera. The program was concluded with a wide awake and enjoyable paper, giving Nash’s ideas concerning American music. Even the name, "More Music and Less Jazz” caused everyone to take notice. If everyone could hear these society programs they would be forced to realize how beneficial and uplifting the society is and why it holds its 'own as one of the big drawing cards to the school, PROFESSOR RILEY i SPEAKS IN CHAPEL FRIDAY KL’LOtiY I'On THOMAS .lEb’FEn.SOX THE SUnjEO'l’ OF I’HOFFESSOH UILKY’.S TALK Even though the audience would ex pect, as Prof. Uiley said, a theme on some ones birthday when he appears on the stage a most pleasing and lienelicial lecture was presented by him Friday, April 11, duriiig tho eliupel period, conecrniiig tho memor ial of Thomas Jefferson. i\(it only did i^rol', i^lley outline the lil’e ot Jelferson in a brief and in cisive manner, paying tribute to him Let us examine your eyes RALEIGH JEWKLKRS N.
