AVo tluink you. The greatest student uiovemout of the South is utulcr way, rapidly as suming dc-finitc form, as to trans portation I'atcs, entertainment, and ])rogram. Special round trip rates probably with cars for students arc to be provided, leaving Raleigh or ({rccnsboro, on tho night of the 28, and returning from Birmingham on Sunday night October .31. The Program Conunittce in scs- .‘ion' at Memphis vor^d tliat the speakci's should bo half sliidonts and half adults. Those adults will be the best that it is possible to obtain, both laymen and proachers. The stiulent s]ieakers will be chosen by a sub committee working together with,thc heads of the schools repre sented. Thus only the best that the Soutli afford.s, and therefore the world, will bo on tiie program. Dis- eus.sion groups will bo one of the main features. These groups -will be led by the ablest and best in formed men and women on subjects that are vital to student and social life. The groups will be small enotigh so that each student may, if he so h's‘ires, ask or answer any question relative to the subject under discussion. In these groups we want to get the ideas and the consensus of opinion of the students of (he South on questions tluit face the thinking peo])le of .\meriea today. Visitors and town’s people are most cordially invited, but will be assigned a sepa rate seating space and porinitted to li.sten in only. 'J'lie several slate Student C’onfer- (‘tices have given place just for this year to this genc'ral assembly of Sou thern I5a])tist Students. We hope to make it the greatest possible siic- CCS.S, deriving therefrom new inspira tions, ideas and ideals that will en- ahh‘ US to do greater things for the cause of Christ while in college and in after life as well. if this Conference he made a suc- i-ess (‘ncli state must stand four sijnare behind its obligations.

IIIE GKOCUK BOY IJf LOVE Jack Gi7iycr in a Bro7i new suit and with ft Flour in his lapel, sporting a sliirt done iu Starch, called at Olive's house with a Box of Candy, and also to take her to a slio.w for the evening. The name ol! tlie performance to be, Yvant is AVest. Jack was a well Bread lad with plenty of Polish and wlien it came to Dressing he had a Corti-er in the market.* Now Jflcfc was Nut-ty in the £7ocoa about his Spic-y friend, and Clove lo her throagh tiiick and thin, She sure did take the Cake even though she used quite a bit of Poioder. Yoa would have to Rice early to Ketchup with her. After the perform ance he said, “Sooii-pcse we go to a restaurant and have a Meal, we huven't livax down here for some time.” She readily consented, and after havlag her oats in-Chffv they started for homo. Arriving, they sat down on the sofa and began to en-7'ii;njc until they were G7«c-d together. Jack was Striiig-ing .'fH/y«r-coated love tid-i)its, and was ready to give Herring, when all ot; a sudden with a Jar he exclaimed “Holy Maekercl now I am in a Jam, the old Jjobstcr is Pickle-il. There stood her father with a Bottle in the hand and he sure proved to bo a Tarter for he started (i) RuiHln trouble. 1-le did not il/ince words, aud called him a little Shrivip and told him not to Louf around any longer, but Jack remained cool as a ■Cueiimher and told her father that he was a Jelly-l'ish and Plum- crazy. Her father did not like this Sauci>y answer and a GrticMng argument fol lowed. Jack was a Match for liim how ever and told him /Jf/r/s-actly what he tliought of hlin. Me left after this r/i/H reception but was by no means at the end of his Hope. When he got home he sat down and Pni-nca this letter to his sweetheart: My Dear Little Sweet-Pca; It Jlctit.s all how I love you, with your liuddiNli hair and Turnip nose. My love Is as tender as a SQiiash and as strong as an Onion. You are the Apple of my eye. You also have a I'earh of a Fl(i-\\YQ and if we Cant- riloiipv, lA-ttHve marry. I know we shall be a happy Pear. Dear ITonei/, if you Carrol all, please sot tho Dcitc. Your loving Pcneil pusher. JACK GINGER. ELISCTIOSS Rah, Rah. Rah, Rah, Edith! Edith! Edith! Merely an expression of the e.\cito* ment which was rampant in the Freshman class at the close of the meeting held on the night ot March 22, 1926. The auditorium rang Avith yells, and Freshman e.xcltement was lieyed up to G minor. The important choice had been made! A Sophomore president had been elected. It has been said that a successful combination of brains and beauty is hard to find, but the Freshman class has again found an instance of this rarity In the person of Edith Waters, who was elected as class president lor next year. Before the election the Freshman president, Pauline Newton, read the following desirable qualities to be held In mind while selecting a leader for next year: 1. She must have poise in presiding at meetings and banquet's. 2. She will not become conceited over honor. 3. She nuist be tactful. 4. As Sophomore president she will be willing to give all time and atten tion necessary to the class. 5. She must have managing ability, originality, and dependability. G. Above all, she must have pep! ■So, after the usual speech-making and. “politicking,” Edith'was eleot«l by a large majority as tho one girl in tho present Freshman class with all these combined qualities which go to make up our ideal Sophomore presi dent. While she has pep and origi nality, she also has “equally brilliant Hashes of silence”—quite tactful, and altogether genuine. The other class officers, later elected, are as follows: vice president, Mario Williams; secretary, Sarah Cook: treasurer, Louise Hill; and cheer leader, Pauline Newton. Pauline, as an able pilot, with th‘3 cooperation of a green but eager crew, has steered our ship safely through ■'Freshman shoals.” Now we are looking- forward to the next journey, when as Sophomores under a new pilot we,will all “heave-to" and do our very best to make everything “clear sailing” for the craft of ’29!
