HENDERSON GIVES AD VICE ON HOW TO STUDY During student Chapel hour on Wednesday, October 30, Di’.' Hender son of ■ the‘. Psychology Department made a talk on "How to Study.” His talk was based on the Self-Recitation theory, First, the pupil reads his les son to get the Idea as. a. whole. Mext he reads It breaking the topics into units. The third time he questions and outlines Important points of each section. This method improves thought development and gives the pupil self-confidence and a feeling of mastery of the subject. .. Dr. Henderson stressed regularity in studying. “Have^ a regular time 'and regular place for ‘ study. Find the proper environment and have your working tools close by. You can’t work ieillcieutly at a cluttered desk. Nor .can you concentrate when light ing, •ventilation, or temperature de mand attention.” ,';imohg* his .“Don’ts” were: ‘‘Don’t continue reading when half asleep. Get up and wash your face. F;iunkers often study longest—don’t substitute the motions for the real thing.” i.mS Advice, Rain, Roofs and Reminiscence By ANNIE ELIZABETH COWARD SOPHOMORES LEAD IN INTER* CLASS TENNIS TOURNAMENT Inter-class tennis tournaments have been going on for four weeks.

A week ago I' marched down to the Arts Building and water trickled on my nose, took the curl out of my hair and made me realize my shoe soles weren't what they used to bet There was no need for a new swimming pool; we had pools all over the campus. I have jumped puddles and moved chairs, but the grand cli max came when I spied, in a. sub merged history room, one little Fresh man calmly) seated In the midst of the spray with an umbrella raised over her, and looking like-Noah must have felt when the • forty days’ rain tell. Overhead the earsplitting knocks of a hammer set my hair on end and my foot on a gallop, as if to rebuke me for my unfair resentment of tain- drenched classrooms. My psychology sadly neglected on account of a tempt ing and weight-lifting feast upon golden brown chicken and black smud gy fudge, 1 turn to the bedlam above for inspiration and stimulus. Ah, yes there is a certain personality to the blows. A steady hard rain of them takes me back to the good old days when I pounded vigorously upon an innocent hunk of tough steak, while the coffee boiled over and the frying pan played hide and seek. The quick steady knocks, one every few minutes, are an unwelcome reminder of the times I crept around on all fours, a fly swatter in one hand and an evil and greedy gleam in my eye, only to pound murderously and gleefully upon the anatomy of a common fruit fly, while papa offered a penny a dozen from the side lines. When a sum total' of the world's off-tones and noises fall simultaneously upon a doubtfully up-over roof, I grin from ear to ear and remepiber my beat study moments iat home—the telephone ringing, the radio soaring, t^o babies expanding Sheir lungs to the fullest capacity and my sister yelling at me to do the dishes. "The knocking Is over," says Pro fessor Henderson. Bamt whang! And down comes the hammer in joyful re- spite! Alas, says Wordsworth, “The world is too much with us.” B. S, U. Notes On Saturday night, November'21, the Meredlth-Wake Forest B. S. U. party will be given. The theme of the party, which is to be given in the Wake Forest gym, is to be “Fun Fes tival."
