Advertising Manager Jo Ella Dunaway SPONSOR—Miss Elizabeth Maxwell Election Relledions We have congratulated the newly elected officers with mixed emotions. There is pride, of course, and happiness for these girls who have proven themselves and who have been recognized as leaders by their fellow students. At the same time, there is a feeling of relief as we pass our re sponsibilities on to other hands, and mingled with this is the sobering know ledge that our Montreat days are rapidly passing. Our Senior year is almost over, and new hands are reaching out to do the work that we have loved, new minds are preparing themselves to ponder the prob lems that have been ours. We must soon leave this place that has taken us so tend erly to her heart and make our way into new and larger fields of service. Our year of responsibility has taught us many things, and we are tempted to assail the new leaders with advice on mat ters large and small. But even as we at tempt this, we know that we cannot possi bly tell them all that they must know. Their year will be different from ours, even as ours has been unlike any other. They must face each problem as it comes and find the answer within themselves. We wish them Godspeed as they begin their adventure, and we would remind them that they will determine to a great extent the progress of Montreat College in the coming year. DORM DOINGS Since this is considered “heart month,” I decided to leaf through the date book and hang around the post office to see if I could find out some of the girls’ beaux. Of course, some of them are modest in mentioning the name, but I’ve dis covered quite a few. Here they are: Jinx — Jimmy Mary Ann — Fred Jolene — Windy (or Jack?) Mary Ruth — Edward Pat — Roy Martha — Dwayne Freida — Joe Mary — Gene Olivia — Dick Ginny — Corky D. J. — John B. Alice — James Betty — Jack Louise — Tom Some of them wearing “Sparklers” are: Shela — Bert Doris — Tommy Mae — Joe Frances — Ira It’s wonderful having Elinor back, isn’t it ? Let’s hope no one else gets real sick the rest of the year! Mary Ruth and Mary Ann are really getting good these days. In History of Music the other day they were studying Lully. All of a sudden they came up with, “Mr. T., we know something Lully did that you don’t know—he wrote Lullybyes.” With this, poor Mr. T. dismissed the class!! I always did know that the occupant of 213 was some kind of animal. She got lonesome the other night and gathered almost every animal in the building to stay with her. She had quite a collection of bears, elephants, cats, pandas, etc. Girls, it s hardly safe to leave your room nowadays, isn’t it? When you get back, if you aren’t shortsheeted, then nine times out of ten, everything in your room will be upside down. I smell villains some where!! We know now that Mary Jane has a harder head than Ginny. They bumped into each other—Mary Jane acquired a slight knot and Ginny was laid up in the infirmary! Have you noticed how some of the girls have cut down on their eating lately? Miss Lucy has been stressing diets in Hygiene and the girls started meditating. Let’s see how long it’ll last! Mr. S. has an addition in his studio at the M. B. Have you seen the little green boat and the green biddy floating around in his water pan? It surely is cute. It had been a full day for the Chorus —from 7:15 A.M. until 11:00 P.M. We had WE CANNOT TELL A LIB IT WAS GREAT FUN February 23, 1952 10:30 P. M. Dear Sis: I had to hurry right home and write you this letter. As you already know, to night we had our George Washington Ball sponsored by the Cabinets, and I ve had such a good time that I just had to share it with you. I forget to tell you, though, in the last letter, that the C.C.U.N. planned to m vite the foreign students from Warren Wilson College to the party. Nine students came for dinner, and a general discussion in Assembly Inn lobby. As 8:00 P. M. drew near, the students, faculty, and ^ of Montreat began gathering in the o y all dressed in attire, representative of c period. It was so interesting to watch, s each person or group arrived, Mr. Thatc er announced them by name. Then after everyone had arrived, severa members of the faculty presented ^ ® ? taking place in the home of Martha Cur is before her marriage ceremony to Georg Washington. Cherry pie a-la-mode and coffee were served for refreshments, for which we went into the dining room. Hovvever, e fore we ate, we watched eight girls the minuet. Prizes were then given or the most outstanding costumes. From High School, Genevieve Landrum, _ like a cherry, won the prize. The Sop o more class of the College came like the British “Red Coats”, gaining tn College award, and Miss Elizabeth o of the faculty found her reward for dress ing like Washington’s washer woman. To end a wonderful evening of fun, many joined in a Virginia reel in the the dining room. Everyone had a won er tirne. „ ^ Well, Sis, it’s time for “lights out , - I’ll have to stop now.
