Where one finds contentment and peace; Where the grasp of the hand shows that you understand. As the blessings of friendship in crease.” Open Forum Debate \"es, the heart of a friend is, in deed, a marvelous place; and this place in the hearts of a friend lies as unclaimed territory for those who will reverently enter. To enter the hearts of men and comrades does not retiuire an ostentatious exhibition of prowess and courage, for only ipe ficil .lies could, qualify', but tO tl|o.so who are enamored of “friend.shlp,'’ the most sacred of all moral bonds,” there, eome.s the call of simple tmst ami fidelity. To walk side by .side with a comrade through cri.ses of ,ioy as well as sorrow, to feel the desires and an.xiet.ies of his soul, to hear the heart-throbs of enthusiasm, and to grasp his hand with a kind of friendly understanding only demand.' that we yield to the impulse of love and reverence. l.s a college campus an appropriate and desirable place to get in close contact with our neighbors, or should we wait to meet and learn them in the ai'ena of life after the college days have pa.s.sed? Doubtless every college man must decide questions of more or le.ss importance for himself; among those ((uestions, 1 believe, comes the one of making friends while in college. On our canipu.' there is a tendency towards the ca.'ual and perfunettory greeting; and it is very seldom that we grasp the hand of a clas.s fellow and give him a bit of encouragement for the work he is doing or for the effort he is putting forth in the accomplishment of some ta.sk. Of all the places where one is in danger of falling into mechanical mannertsms tow'ards his neighbors, the present-day college campu.ses certainly pre.sent the great est peril. We have specific examples rill about us which will verify the truth of this .statement. To greet a person is to give him an expre.s- sior. of our kind wishes both in word and in action. The custom .seems al most to have lost it.s originality in the chaos of college activities hero, and at other institutions. Do we i-eally have a .sensation of hearty good will and wi.shes for our com- I'ade as we chance to meet for the first time in the beginning of each new day? Yes, the college campus is an ideal .spot for the making of life com- The Open Forum Debate was hela in Wingate Hall, Wake Forest Col lege, Tuesday evening, Februaiy 28, at 8 o’clock.

One of those beautiful days of May, after I had walked down Prado Lawn, I stood in the Central Park. For a moment I was unconscious of what was going on around me. Nature was mystic and mysterious, I thought 1 was living not in terrestrial world, but in a celestial mansion. But as I lifted, my eyec- I saw that clear, blue sky, arch celestial of the Pear of the Aantilles dream of the romantics, inspiration of the poets. I saw those majestic royal palms, honor of the Antilles, symbol of immortality, moving their fronds to and fro as the smooth breeze blowed. I heard hundred- of birds singing like cherubs. I smelled the balmy perfume of those aromatic flowers that only the trop ics can produce. I heard the mur muring stream in the fountain. 1 contemplated crowds of little girls playing on the lawns, happy like angels. But of all the things I heard, saw or contempalted, nothing af fected my heart more than to see the statue of the master Marti. In hat moment of e.sthetic rapture, 1 .s'",v before me the living image of j the Apostle, engraved into that cold, i de-'.d stone. The sta.tue is facing ! the rising sun .as he to whom it Boy Lost ALFED CARLTON COMING On the 16th and 17th of this month we are expecting to have on our campus Mr. Alford Carleton, a repre.sentative of the Student Vol unteer Movement for Foreign Mis sions. Mr. Carleton is a graduate of Oberlin College, he was a member of the Cosmopolitan and Dramatic Clubs while a .student in that col lege, and has since been for three years an educational worker in Tur key. Therefore he is able to in terpret missionary work out of very vivid first hand experience. Hi.s u.sefulness on our campus de pends largely on the preparation we can make before he comes. repre.sents saw'. the sun of liberty rising for a nation of slaves. To me it was alive. I saw’ that small body holding up an erect head, proportionately large. On his broad, open forehead, I saw the signs of his greatness—an inspired poet, an eloquent orator, a superior master, and a tireless patriot. In his calm and penetrating eyes, I saw- the purity of his heart and the 'convicion of his ideas. In his aquiline nose, the Roman w-ho pre ferred to be dead than to be a slave. In his well formed lips, hall’ covered by the mustache, I saw- the firmness of his character. And in his massii^e I” .saw ahe litie.'^ that .show' his internal suffering. In the whole, I saw- the father of a nation in that man, .small of body, but great in spirit. I saw j that man w'ho sacrificed e.state,) friends, home, family, and life for his country. I saw' the man whose person is reproduced in a cold mai'- ble, but whose sacred ideals were fai' beyond description, and that .should be followed by all good Cu.bans. Roy Heaton w-as lost. He had not been seen since the early after noon, and his parents were almost hysterical. The neighbors took their lanterns and guns and began a search through all the surrounding country. They called, fired guns, built fires and searched. But it seemed of no avail. Late at night an encouraging cry resounded. He had been found within sight of the house. Roy Heaton was lost. His parent.s seemed not to nund at all. The neighbors made no inquiry. They took no lights, sounded no alai-ms, sent forth no signals. Yet he i.s lost, within sight of home, aud un less he is found he may die within sight of home. Daily he sits at the table at home: he performs certain chores; he goes to school, recites and plays'with his fellows. Yet he is lo.st. He looks into the face of his father, but receives no guidance. He stands listening to two men who are Christians. They do not help him. They seem not to realize that he is lost. He works with one of them, but .still no word. Is it po.ssible that he can be losi in .sight of home and perhaps die there with no one who is interested enough to guide him to the Chri.st ’ Colleg-e Quartet I> Heard Over The campus was awake'j ruary 28, to the fact ft, Hill “Harmony Boys,” alias, lege quartet, would give a, of their owm over WWNj- ville’s new broadca.sting sts, cordingly, at 8:30 o’clock lob er.s and head phones were- to catch the music from t piring singers. 1 The program opened wi'i; Do Y'ou Do,” arranged Uj- tutelage of Mr. Parr.

On Sunday evening, March 4, the regular preaching hour was devoted to the collection section of the church. Some very inspiring talks were made by four .students about the work of the Centennial Cam paign. Charles Maddry was in charge of the service, and his simplicity , and naturalness of manner gave the l ight atmosphere for the speakers. The subjects were well chosen and followed each other in a unifying way. They were as follows; Christian Education According to the Scriptures—Ruth Jarvis. ' A Brief History of Chri.stian Ed ucation in North Carolina—Nathan Brooks. What Christian ' Education Has Meant to Me—Edith Hayes.
