Another old adage, “The more the nu'rrier,'’ is also about to be proved or disproved, for ilc-redith’s family is about to grow suddenly from 520 to approximately S25. Xo nioi'o uhvious expression of mir joy at having both llicse con- I’ercncL-s nicut with ilercilith can be (dfed than ihe smile on the face of our President. As every Jleredith girl knows, nothing pleases Dr. Bi'ower more than for the people throughout the state, people ))iirticularly, to make ilercdith tlioir Mecca. Thcr(;fure as t!u' dol(‘gatcs •01110, tliey may be certain of ro- (■(.‘iving a broad smile and a hr-artj' wolcoino frojn Dr. Browor, if iiothing fiu'ther is done for them while they arc here. SOCIAL NEWS Dr. W. M. Vines, pastor First Baptist Church of Lynchburg, Va., who is hold ing a revival at Tabernacle Baptist Church, conducted chapel exercises Sat urday morning. Dr. Vines has preached the baccalaureate sermon at Meredith coiuniencent on two occasions and is greatly beloved by Meredith students. The main portion of his talk was based upon the three common place words siiiceritj/, sclf-control and sympalliy. Dr. Vines was accompanied by Dr. Greaves, pastor of Tabernacle Church and a friend of the college. We are glad to welcome back Miss Grace Lawrence, Dean of Women, who was called to her homo in Salisbury oil account of the illness of her father. She was accompanied back by Miss Cullios, who spent several days in the college as a guest of Miss Lawrence. Dr. Chas. E. Maddry, Secretary of the North Carolina State Convention, was present at our chapel hour Fri day morning. He made a few brief remarks in behalf of the Centennial Campaign and urged tiie entire student body to subscribe. Miss Cleo Mitchelle, Student Sec. at N. C. C. W., spent a short while in the college on last Sunday night. At a reccnt meeting oC the Honor Society, Martha Maynard of Raleigh, was elected President. A few days later, another member was added to tlfe so ciety: namely, Eloise Greenwood, of Statesville, member class of ’2S. An error in recording her grades last spring was responsible for the delay. The Colton English Club held its regular monthly meeting on Monday af ternoon at five o’clock. .Miss Jane Jones, instructor in piano at Peace Institute was a guest at the college on Monday afternoon, With apologies to "Wake Forest folb'gc foi‘ tlic borrowing of their colors, \vc art' printing this issue of 'I'm-; Twin on yellow paper, lest in t!ic rush of attending conferences, liaiHpif't^, and lunelieons, the propin- i]uity of Hallowe’en might be OVCl'lodki'i], Ifallowi-’i.'ii at Hereditli always means ‘'ydinl eai.s. good treats, and a good time for all,” for never doe.s onr l)ic'titioii forget when that apeci- fif! day fiinu's nrouiicl, regardless of tlie “huj'ry iind 'furry” of college life. Sitiee thf \-]'y beginning of Mcredilh. I lalhiwc'cii has been a red- lottor day for ii>, particularly be cause rif ihi' which once was an oecusional visitor upon Jleredith stulents. With the use of yellow paper and black ink, of black cats and bats, and the talk of irorudith ghosts, it is not our purpose to frighten our guests to any (‘xtent, but merely to remind iheiii that the llallowe’eii season is Iioro, that it is recognized gladly by Jfcredith students, and to warn them that “The Goldins will got you if you don’t watch out.” THE TWIG SUNDAY SCHOOL Because the Sunday School depart ment is the youngest organization on the campus, it may be termed the baby organization of the B. S. U. It is safe to say, however, that the baby is beginning to grow. In other col leges the Sunday School is an im portant part of the B. S. U. and rend ers a great service on the campus. At Meredith the Simday School is ex pected to do the same great work. The purpose of this deparlmeat is to unify the Meredith classes at Pullen, Taber nacle and First Baptist Churches and encourage their work. The first thing that the Sunday school department has attempted to do since its organizution is to estab lish the six point record system of keeping the class records. TKls sys tem is neccssary in order to Kave standard Sunday school classes. It has been tested in hundreds of Suii'day schools and found to be the quickest and most efficient method of keeping class records. There are two other reasons for hav ing the six point record system besides the one mentioned above. The first is to train girls for work in their home Sunday Schools. All the progressive Baptist Sunday Schools of today are adopting this system, and the members oC the North Carolina Baptist Sunday Schoo 1 board are anxious that the college students introduce this system into their home churches. The second reason is to create a spirit of rivalry among the classes. The record of each class is to be post ed on the bulletin board every Tues day so that each class can see what the other classes are doing. It has been voted by tho classes to try the six point record system for three months, and since it has been such a success at other colleges, it Is sure to bo a success at &\iiredith. The Sunshine Work which for sev eral years has been carried on separate ly by the different churclies is now to be under tho direction of the Sunday school department. It has been ar ranged that the girls from Pullen and Tabernacle churches go out every sec ond Sunday in the month and the girls I'rom First Baptist go every fourth Sunday. In this way there will lie two Sundays in tho month in which Iho Meredith girls gu out on Sunshine Work. Arrangements are to be made so that each girl who wishes may go several times during the year. Thougli the baby department of the n. S. U. is still in its tender years, it is hoped that it will do a great ser vice to Meredith. J. J.
