February 29, 1936 THE TWIG PAGE THREE Mr. Tyner Speaks At Church and P.-T. A. Athletic News Well, playmates, ImBkeUiall is cer tainly i-Dlling along these days, and It looks as II the seniors are once more going to be proclaimed basket* ball champions. The junior team got off to a bad start by losing to tlie sen iors, but rallied somewhat In the game with the sophomores and gave them a good run for their money, losing 35-34. The freshmeii tied tlie sophs to a 39-39 score, playing one of the best .games oC the Season. And all of our wise words about auppoi-ting your class teams might aa well have been written In water—they •seemed to have impressed nobody. Anyway, wc still think the teams should have better support from the side lines and can’t think It very sport ing of the students not to do their share. Golf instruction is still going on— and get this:-It counts for one hour on your regular gym class—and that’s saying a lot. If the weather continues good members of the classes are. go ing out to the Raleigh golf association links to play. We already know of some girls who are practicing up on such choice expressions as “Fudge” or "Goodness Me” to be used in place of the customary strong expressions that one employs when one meets with difflculty on the gol£ course. ' And my 'Irleuds, what happened that so few oE 'you attended the tea given by Miss Warnor, Miss Grimmer,, uiul Mias Mason? Of courac I'll ad- init that an athletic column is a pe culiar place to mention teas, but even we Athletic Amazons have our tender momenta. So tho next time anyone is thowghtfiil and kind enough to pro vide a tea in your honor, be sure to go—you'll talk about anything t'rnm the swimming pool project right on down to the boat methods for disaoct- ing a dogfish .sliark, as well as eii- ,1oytng good tea and veru tasty cakes. In the absence of the pastor, Dr. J. Powell Tucker, Professor B. Y. Tyner filled the pulpit of the First Baptist Chcrch on Sunday, February 16. He used aa his subject “The Foundations of tho Kingdom,” In which lie stressed the individual as the vital factor, but also emphasized the relative gi’owth of the Kingdom in terms of the iudi- vldual’s attitude toward his fellow be; ings. He used as the text Mark 0;!i0 —“Have salt in yourselves and live peaceably with all men." Professor B. Y. Tyner spoke on Tuesday evening to the Parent-Teach- er Association of the Lewis School using as his subject “The Child as the Future Citizen.” He brought out the fact that there are four great influ ences operating to determine the be havior of the Individual, namely; (1) heredity, (2) surrounding or environ ment, (3) pi’evioua experience of the individual including formal training or education, and (4) tiie present state of the individual including health, vitality, emotional condition attitude, etc. In this talk Professor Tyner stressed the importance of tho parents’ realization that character building is.a continuous process from birth through the whole life of the individual, and that all forces of one’s environment to which he responds are factors in personality and character building. New R. C. Books Donated By Carnegie Endowment Ideal Man As Desired By Wellesley Girls Anybody knows that a good propor tion of the conversation among mem bers of one sex is about members of the other sex, Young women in a writing seminar at Wellesley College were eiiough in terested in each other’s opinions about men to take a written canvass of the class in order to determine each girl's qualifications for her “ideal man.’’ One list, that of a brilliant poetess includes theae points: 1. He must take a woman as a per son, not as a woman. 2. He must be honorable. 3. He must be tolerant in every way •—this is most important. 4. He must have a broad interest (character, social ease, intelligence). Another young author’s list was very short: ' 1. He must be generous. 2. He must be ambitious. The third list, that of a millionaire’s daughter: 1. He should be gracious—the sort of graciousness that goes with a pipe and tweeds. 2. He should be helpless at times. 3. He must be a real person—three- fourths of all men have only a super ficial knowledge of life. 4. He doesn’t have to have a "moral” character. Strangely, not one of the girls men tioned wealth or social position. After the answers were read In tho class, a visiting,married woman asked for the floor and declared, “You girls have been picturing saints, not meii. In the first place, he should be intensely mas culine. Then lie should be broadmind ed—that's about all you can ask,” Recredtion Evening Series Inouguroted February 24 (Continued from page one) Joyable, we throw away artiflcialitiea, thus developing ease which will lead to more successful contacts in the business life. The program for the first of the oyeuings was as follows: Grand March Howdy (Get acquuluted gnme) Song, "Jyittle Tom Tinker” . Cliaii' Relay Handlcerchief-tie relay Song, “Smoke Went Up the Chim ney” March, “Choo-Choo” ■'Paw Paw Patch,” game and song Singing contest “Good Night Ladies” VIENNA CHOIR BOYS APPEAR IN THIRD CIVIC CONCERT (Continued from page one) love songs of the country from which they come. The first program in this series was presented by the MaganinI Cliamber Symphony. In the second of the series, Poldi Mlldner, accomplished young Viennese pianist, delighted a large audience with her skill. Following the concert on March 2, the final program will be filled by Dmitei Romanoff and Nina Theilade, ballet dancers. B. S. U, Notes “And, if I be lifted up, I will draw all men unto me/' "Do We Lovo enough to lift Him?” was the theme for Morning Watch as the Mereditli girls observed a week of prayer for Home Missions. Some of the topics were: “Do We Love the Foreigner?" by Luclle Sherron. “Do We Love the Indian?” by Norma Rose. "Do We Love the Mountaineer, the Deaf and the Needy?” by Virginia Rollins. “Do We Love the Negro?” by Mar tha Glazcner. "Do We Love the Cuban aud Jew?” by Katherine Liles. Bnt prayer Is not enough. Prayer must be supported l>y giving and each Meredith girl is asked to bring her Annie W. Armstrong offering for Home Missions to the circle meeting on her hall Sunday night. Prayers supported by gifts WILL lift up Christ to those in the Sontii who do not know Him. And by tlie way, which circle will have the most interesting program and the largest crowd at 6:15 Sunday? A surprisingly large number went to Sunday school and chui'ch dui'ing the quarantine. That’s the spirit!
