Page 2 THE DIALETTE September, 1950 The DIALETTE is the official newspaper of Montreat College, and is published monthly by the Staff of Student Publications. Its purpose is to give the student a fair and unprejudiced view of campus life.

Mitchell. Monday, October 9, is the big day. Come on girls, let’s get in shape to enjoy the beautiful fall colors from the highest peak east of the Rockies! Have you noticed those industr ious students of the Morse Code ? They’re probably trying to figure out all of those signals that pass ed between the Inn and Lookout the night of the eclipse. The old choir members had their first practice for the choral festival of the Western District of the North Carolina Federation of Music Clubs which will be held at Ruthcrfordton, October 7. Here’s hoping they have as much fun as they had at Mars Hill last year. Don’t be too envious; there’ll be another one in October. Congratulations to the new class sponsors. Students are lursting with pride at their own good taste. No reflections on the Montreat Men’s Chorus of 1949-50, but with all of the men on the faculty we’re expecting a cantata this Christ mas. With an accompanist and a conductor, there’s nothing to hold you back, gentlemen! The juniors are proudly claim ing Montreal’s only coed, James Robinson. Now really, is that fair, juniors? Once in a while you still see homesick glances toward Fellow ship but honestly, don’t you think Howerton Hall is a pretty wonder ful dorm ? Readin’, writin’, and ’rithmetic seem different when used as de corations for a birthday supper. School days was the theme for the September party and the home work seemed real effective from the looks of that wonderful cake. The whole executive staff is “proud as a peacock’’ over the new staff members. You’ve all done a wonderful job and we’re quite excited over the prospects for this year. The recently-announced faculty committee on student publications includes Dr. Kennedy, Mrs. White, Miss Watkins, and Mr. Russell! We on the staff are looking for ward to working with you this year. We are confident that with your help we can make this one of the best years ever. The purpose of the DIALETTE is to present an unprejudiced view of campus life. We want it to be truly a student newspaper. Won’t you help us by contributing your suggestions and opinions to the S. P. S.? Fall Fashions... Suntans are fading and the breeze is a little shaper these days; fall is well on the way. This is the time when we begin to check our wardrobes and bemoan the fact that we haven’t a thing to wear. Well, let’s get busy with our shopping lists and get those wardrobes restocked prettily and INEXPENSIVELY. The first step is, of course,, to thoroughly check our last year fall wardrobes. You 11 be surprised how many things still look nice and nearly new if you’ve kept them stored carefully and neatly during the summer months. Shake out the moth balls, sun them, press them, check hemlines, buttons, and there they are — pretty as the pictures in “Seventeen.” Now for the shopping which is always scads of fun. Perhaps you really do need at least one new sweater and skirt. The fall colors are stunning this year. The newest look is the copper and gold and the material - wool jersey. Vool jersey is neat, inexpensive, and looks good on practically every type of figure. Now for something that will fill the need of that new date bait dress you just must have. How about the bright-colored corduroy jumper tmat IS the very essence of style. You can wear an assortment of blouses with this jumper that will make you look different every time. Need a church-going dress? Again we refer you to the wool jersey page for perky dress-up dresses.. And don’t forget that hats are still in style, if you want to restock your hat box, velveteen ■iits the high note this fall. Well here we have at least started you’ ort You have on your shopping list a sweater and skirt for school, a jumjer for dates, a dress-up dross, and a jaunty new hat. Now why not check our cosme- ICS while we’re dressing for fall’ Remember that college girls don’t need a large supply, but most of Last, but least in fashion, is expression. By this we mean to say a gay smile and a radiant face can complete a fall wardrobe and assure attractiveness the year round, come rain, snow, or shine. Good shopping to you!

The af fair, which is to be formal, wi take place in Gaither Chapel. The faculties and student bodies :both the college and the hig school are cordially invited to at tend. Included in Mr. Sinclair’s pro gram will be compositions by Bach, Busoni, Bauer, Beethoven, McDowell, Debussy, Brahms, Liszt, and Chopin. ON YOUR HONOR Cont’d from Page 1 A verdict of guilty was handed down, and the boy was dismisse from school. Dr. Davis explained how important this one case was to the welfare of the honor system at his college by saying in shor that if this one boy had been allowed to remain in school, ® honor system might have faile in its main purpose - to crea e clean living - physically, mental y, and spiritually. , Then he spoke of the boys an girls in a particular high schoo who decided they were tired o the way that their school was being run. They met together an vowed they would neither give nor receive aid on an examination or test. These twenty-five students made such an impression on t eir fellow students that the entire school was improved and an honor system was established that lire in every way. In brief Dr. Davis tried to im press upon our minds that an honor system is honorable when everyone co-operates to ® fullest. Just because the ru es have been written down does no mean they will be carried ou . They must have the support o everyone concerned. One person ran do a great deal of damage n the system if her influence_ m school has been outstanding, therefore, the honor system ® Montreat College will live as as we, the students, make hono live.
