Much Spirit Displayed in Society Rushing Both tlie Astrotekton and the riiilaretian societies have been carrying on the rushing of the new girls with the usual en thusiasm. As yet most of it has been done by individual mem bers rather than by the.Socie ties as a whole; however, it. is generally known that both So cieties are planning numerons activities for the entertainment of the new girls. When tlie girls arrived they were Jiiet by representatives from both So cieties, wlio gave out any needed information and lielped the new comers to get settled. There has been a gi’eat deal of visiting done in the freshman dormitory by the old girls who are desirous of becoming ac quainted witli the new girls, and of boasting their Society. The Phi’s presented a shoulder corsage to each new girl on their first Sunday here. The usual amount of calls and singing in tlie court has taken place for their benefit. Decision day is not far olT with all its tlirills, excitement, and curiosity as to which So- triety is going to get the largest nundier of new girls. In the meantime both Societies are doing their best to attract the largest number to their side. J. M. BllOUaHTON SPEAKS ON “WEALTH” AT FORMAL OPENING OF 9IEUED1TH (Continued from page one) tired of people without anima tion, purpose, and enthusiasm. Enthusiasm is a note needed in' religion, battle, and life. And finallj', one niustjiave a philosophy founded on faith, not one founded on fads. Faith in oneself is the first requisite. The chief thing wrong with people at present could be cor rected if they had the second necessary quality—faith in others. And most important of all, one must have faith in the Lord of all. “If "we have all these qualities then we can surely possess that sort of wealth which promotes happi ness,” the speaker concluded. Before the main talk of the evening there were short speeches of welcome made to old and new students by the representatives of the various Baptist churches in the city. Robert Simms, Jr., spoke for the young people’s department at the Tabernacle, and the Rev. Forrest Feezor for the cl;urch as a whole. Dr. J. Powell Tiicker, who pronounced the. invocation, represented the First Baptist, and Rev. W. W. Davidson who conducted the scrlptui*e read ing, spoke for the Johnson Memorial church. Mr. Poteat welcomed all to Pullen Jficmorial, and J[r. J. S. Farmer, of the Biblical Re corder gave a general welcome on behalf of all the Baptists. Dr. Caviness, -Mr. Mooneyham, and Dr. Hunter were present as teachers of Sunday school classes in the different churches. Special music was furnished by a ’Cello solo, “Hark to the Evening Star,” by Miss Alverda Rosel, accompanied ■ at the organ by J[r. Spelman.
