NOTES Friday, October 4, was set aside by southern Baptist college leaders as Student Relationship Day. As all our denominational schools of the south. Meredith observed Student Relation ship Day.

S. U. Mias Elliott conducted the devotional; then Mrs. Charles E. Maddry, repre senting the churches of Raleigh, ex tended to each girl a cordial invita tion to Join the Raleigh churches.

"Conquering the Campus With Christ" was the subject discussed at the first regular meeting of the Home Service Band Friday night, October 4. The Scripture reading was taken from Luke 10; Two Kinds of Service. Grace Jolley had prepared an inspira tional and helpful program. Vida Miller spoke on the Importance of the mental side in conquering the campus for and with Christ. The moral phase was discussed by Charlotte Tedder, and the spiritual by Annette Dono- vant. Although the mental and moral are Important, the spiritual out weighs them, for they are attributes of the spiritual. Both old and new members gave brief synopses of their religious ac tivities during the summer. “That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful In every good work, and increasing In the knowledge of God," was the theme of the meeting.

Mr. Riley discussed the various phases of the organization of business in socicty and causes tor friction among them. He laid partic ular emphasis on the place of public opinion in labor disputes and the re sponsibility of each member of so ciety, not merely laborites and capi talists, for seeing that no taction was given unfair advantage oyer the others. The Sunday evening vester serv ice, October 6, was a preliminary meeting for the Y. W. A. Study Course week, starting October 7 and ending October 11.

Miss Bourae spoke on "Campus Geography." Her message was a plea for college girls to create a constant source of Inspiration, to “lift up your eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh help." This vesper service was a fitting start for an entire week of study and inspiration with the religious leaders selected.
