higher, we l)ecome separated from our
fellowmen. However, these difflculties
keep us keyed up; the tang of danger
adds fascination to the experience.
Two crises that Dr. Poteat gave
which come into the life of a college
student are, that he is intellectually
pre-occupicd and has no time to culti
vate his spiritual life; and he has a
wider horizon than before and tries to
interweave his old religious concep
tions with his new views which do not
fit. Dr. Poteat advised us not to throw
away our religion to correct an opinion.
He said we should distinguish between
experience and some person's explana
tion o£ it. Everyone has this religious
experience, he said, and everyone
comes to the period of doubt. By striv
ing hard we are able to overcome this
doubt.
Dr. Poteat advised us to keep on
climbing; he said he hoped we would
never roach the top, but always be
pressing to a Ingher goal. He told us
to keep to the shelter of the companion
ship of Jesus bccause by doing this, we
shall always triumph.
Lucille Majette all confessed that they
had done wrong in revolting against
wearing the clothes required and
agreed to be obedient thereafter.
The unusual noise heard in the
rooms of Hallie Benton and Viola
Plemer was considered sufllcient to
exclude them from membership In the
Association on October 9, 1908.
The privilege of spending the night
out of their rooms was taken from
lone Fuller, Gertrude Horn, and Mamie
Bradshur who spent the night out of
their rooms and were rejrorted Cor
loud talking and laughing.
Margaret Norman was deprived of
privileges and given live demerits for
walking home from Tabernacle Church
with a gentleman.
Janie Parker, Annie MacKaughan,
Vella Fields, Lucille Majette and Lil
lian Allen each received one demerit
for wilful disobedience oE the college
rule to wear an under vest through
Ihe winter months. However, owing
(0 the willingness of the girls to ac
knowledge that they were In the wrong
not to wear the underwear required,
and the consideration hy the commit
tee of the good records of the girls,
it was decided to allow the girls to
acknowledge their fault and to deprive
them of their privileges for one month,
and remove the demerits.
Ella Parker's privileges were taken
away for two weeks for studying in
her closet after light bell.
Caroline Blggers, for walking with
out a chaperone when off the honor
roll, was required to write an apology
to the committee and to promise not
to repeat the offense.
On September 13, 1912, a motion was
made and carried that no middy
blouses should be worn by the students
after 2:30 o'clock In the afternoons,
since it is thought that these suits are
not in keeping with afternoon or even
ing.
On February S, 1913, Mary DeLoache
was called up for not wearing her
undervest. The penalty imposed was
the loss of all her Junior privileges
, |»II ——
for one week. It was decided that
hereafter Miss Paschal might impose
penalties on those she might And not
wearing shirts and high shoes, with
out calling a meeting of the commit
tee. It is said that Miss Paschal stood
at the dining room door every morning
and pinched the girl’s arms as they
!ame In to be sure that they were
wearing the required under vest. Eliza
beth Anderson directly disobeyed Miss
Paschal about wearing her undervest
on Saturday night at the debate.

Marks was introduced and he explained
very clearly the organization of the
campaign. Dr. William Lewis Poteat,
President Emeritus of Wake Forest
College then spoke on the History of
Education In North Carolina. His
speech was most inspiring and we feel
sure that it will avail much in enlisting
the support of North Carolina Baptists
in the campaign. The president of the
State W. M. U., Mrs. W. N. Jones
pledged the supirort of their organiza
tion. The Presidents of the Wake
Forest and the Meredith Student
Bodies voiced their earnest desire to
see their campaign result in a big suc
cess and also pledged their support.
Dr. Gaines, President of Wake Forest,
WHS enthusiastic in expressing his wil
lingness and that of Wake Forest Col
lege to cooperate most heartily with
the other Baptist organizations to see
the pro.iect through to the end.
After the plan was set forth and
discussed, every Baptist was inspired
to go out and work for the means
which would make for bigger and bet
ter Baptist Educational Institutions.
The meeting closed with the benedic
tion pronounced by Dr. R. T. Vann.
