Sixnild Miss Davie Belle Eaton spent the weelc-end at her home in Winston- Salem. A number of girls attended the Paderewski concert in Greensboro last week. Miss Lucille Martin of Fayetteville, who attended Meredith last year, spent tlie week-end at the college. Mrs. Cary Mumford, formerly Miss Cleone Cooper, ’27, was a visitor at the college Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Mumford are now making their home in Raleigh. Miss Mary Herring visited the col lege Sunday. Misses Mary Louise Huffman, Nelle Baker, Edna Mae Duvall, and Roberta Royster were hostesses at a floating tea Thursday. The guests, upon ar riving went down, a receiving line and were then usliered into the next room where refreshments were served. Many girls enjoyed their hospitality. Miss Katheryn Maddry spent Sun day in town with her parents. Miss Bessie G. Gill and Alice Dowd spent the week-end at their homes. Sunday afternoon, January 22, Misses Virginia Crawford and Evelyn McCall entertained a few of their triends at a tea. Chicken salad, sand wiches. pickles, tea and oake were served to Misses Mary Barber, Saliu- da Perry. Grace Hipps, Sara Culloni, Kathleen Durham, "Tillie” Duvall, Nelle Baker, Roberta Royster, and Mary Louise Huffman. Sara Oliver of Snilthfleld, member class of ’27, returned Monday after a week’s absence due to the illness of her sister, Mildred. “Millie’’ is a Mere dith graduate of the class of ’27. and we were indeed sorry to hear that she his Pacifist Doctrine produce the di'sired effect, there would be no ailing soldiers in need of the nurse’s soothing touch. Very few young ]icople (oduy are longing for war—the ill-efTects. of tlio last one are yet, too obvious; but the .statement that there has never Ix'cu a waj' which could )iot have been prev(‘nted. in a rather broal and bold one, Xotioe.s have been roceivc^d from th(> Post-Mistross that hcuccforth only two girls may have a P. 0. Box together. Although as far as some of us were conccrncd, four to a box worked quite nieely, we are not coni- l)laining; Probably tlie change is duo to tlie fact that oiie box does not ofl'er sufficient space for the quanti ty of mail which other quartets )■(>- eeive. has suffered an attack of appendicitis. While here “Millie” made a host of friends, all of whom, are wishing for her a speedy recovery. A group picture of the entire student body was made on Friday afternoon. Dr. Brewer frequently has expressed the wish that he could get a group pic ture in which “every single student” would appear. There is a fair possi bility that he will see his wish realized in this picture—twenty minutes the photogi-apher waited and still they came! Pictures will be on sale for $1.50 and they will be well worth the price. Here is the chance for the girl who likes to collect “oddities”—she will never find another picture just like this one! With exams, a thing of the past, our minds and energy are being di rected toward the Centennial cam paign with renewed interest. On Sat urday, Feb. 4, 25 girls will leave in a special bus for the western portion of tlie state. Stops will be made at Lex ington, Thomasville, Statesville, Salis bury, Concord and Charlotte and from these points girls will be sent to special towns and churches within a short dis tance. “Meredith—-what it has meant to me and will mean to the Baptists of the state,” rather the history of Bap tist Education in North Carolina, is to be the subject for the 4-minute speakers on this trip. We are glad to report the return of Professor Riley, who was called home last week because of the death of his father. Our sympathies are with him in his sorrow. Miss Helen Price, head of the Latin and Greek department, entertained her Greek Literature Class at tea on Fri day afternoon, immediately following their examinations. The invitation was extended to all members of the class who “felt offended” after tak ing the examination: every member was present. Delightful refreshments, consisting of two varieties of sand wiches, cookies, cake, tea, hot choco- lato and mints were served by the hostess, assisted by Miss Mary Gray- don. Upon their departure, the guests rated themselves wise in selecting a course in Greek, and Misses Price and Graydon charming hostsses as well as sympathetic instructors. Those enjoying Miss Price’s hospitality were Misses Doris Tillery, Mabel Claire Hoggard, Madallne Elliott, Mary Lee Sears, Elizabeth Rogers, Louise Me- Comb, Alice Lawrence, Grace Honey cutt. Lois Rosa and Lillian Wheeler. The Dramatic Club held its meet ing January 30 at 4 o’clock. The pro gram was in charge of Janie Burns and Howard Mumford. There is much interest being shown In this new or ganization. MEREDITH COLLEGE RALEIGH. N. C A STANDARD COLLEGE FOR YOUNG WOMEN Member of the Southern Association.
