This proved to be all too true among certain Philoma thians Friday evening, January 25. Herman Southard, Frank Dale, and Jeffrie Freeman were outstanding as declaimers. Each one of these loyal members shows a wonderful improve ment in the art of speaking, and with an extra amount of work can blaze his way t® the sublime heights of glory. The debate. Resolved, That the McNary-Haugen Bill providing for farm relief be enacted into law, was upheld by Thomas Dysard, Jeter Haynes, and Massey Holden on the affirmative. Opposed to this band was the “Convincing Trio,” Herman Francis, James Cherry and Carl Meares. The debate was a heated one, the speakers on both sides show ing an unusual amount of talent. The most outstanding event was the con structive speech of Cherry, which happened to belong to Meares. After Cherry had propounded much con vincing argument, it came time for Nowadays the little boy who hides behind his mother’s skirts has to get in a high chair to do it.—Agromeck. ♦ ♦ + lYank Huskins is so dumb that he thinks bacteria is the rear door to cafeteria.—Agromeck.

Carl, however, was not to be outdone, for he was determined to win, and this determination won the argument for his “Trio.” Holden was worthy of honorable mention in upholding the affirmative. After all had ealmed down from the “tropical” arguments of heated debate, Homer Huie reduced the aud ience to tears with the humor of a satirist. Several visitors were present and were given recognition by the president.

One of the largest fields of competitors in the history of the society was present for the oc casion. Fifteen speakers arose, each climbing to the heights of eloquence of which he was capable. “The Curse of Regulus” won the field; “I Am Innocent of This Blood” rendered by Sammy Morse drew second; “The Guillotin,” the victor ious speech of last year, given by James Baley, won the final honor third place. Everyone who witnessed the con test declared that in his opinion it was a splendid struggle and fair. The afternoon’s scene proved the Society to be the proud possessor of many gifted declaimers, all eager to win their way into the final combat at the end of the school year. The following were the other parti cipants in the contest: Scott Buck, Romulus Sparks, T. Carl Brown, Frank Dale, Rex Brown, Quentin Plumblee, Woodrow Haywood, Chas. Weston, Rugsell Seery, William Cox. Earle Pryor, and Charles Ivah. Miss Yengert, Mr. McLeod, and Mr. England were the judges. MARS HILL. N. C.
