THEHILLTOP, MARSHILLCOLLEGE, MARSHILL, N. C. PAGE THREE '*Jew officers Elected in >0t Euthalian Society ! The Euthalian Literary Society H11, for the major part of the re- aining school term, have as its 'niots and administrators the follow- lejg formally elected officers: presi- mt, N. F. Ransdall; vice-president, B. Gastello; recording secretary, ^■Vfcm Whiteside; censor, G. L. War- ^k; corresponding secretary, O. J. iVaham; chaplain, W. E. Abrams; hglish critic, M. H.

Robinson. f It is thought that every officer, om the first to the last, shall mag- 3 jfy his position; and that every 1 iember of the society shall stand asVck of every officer and construct- jely help by his cooperation. There jems even now to be a deepened edpse of responsibility among all Bithalians for which they are thank- J.il. i-a pensorship of Movies Wins in Phi Debate ss 3t _ Yes, the Phi’s are still delving in- H the mysteries of life! This was learly manifested in their last meet- Ig when there could be seen an un gual amount of interest in society 'Jtivities. Guy Saunders and Russell Seery re to be very highly complimented ^r their ability as declaimers. Their ‘Elections were enjoyed very much by hH-eryone. Earl McKinney gave a ^ry impressive reading. Everybody can rejoice now, or eep as the case may be, for A. B. ^Hirkcr and Thurman Lingerfelt were 'I*|iccessful in passing state censor- * %ip for moving pictures. That is, foUy convinced the judges that there 6(|iould be such a law passed. But ■a^oyt Smith and Robert Snider still tuibntend that this would be detri- n(4ental to all concerned. They have b«ie fighting spirit and are willing to tb4) battle over and over again in the [iture. Hoyt thinks that Parker can nve success only with those pic tefcres that are brought to Mars Hill ira That which was enjoyed most by jie Philomathians was the number selections by “Bill” Cox. Cox sure does have that “ancient” musical g klent that so many have coveted. It on| rumored that he will be called upon ^Jgain in the near future; so those |ho would like to visit have a real feat in store. nl ® itegular Clio rd •w Program Varied ; A most interesting program was iv'en by the Clio Literary Society, udebruary 7.

The society is always ad to have any one who wishes to me, especially members of the fa- cd Ity. ‘^‘jjjonpareils Present a* Nature Program rt^A delightful nature program was k ^en by the Nonpareil Society Feb- [ary 7. The first number was the Set of the Sails,” given by Rubye bliwler. Mary Sue Gribble sang “By ’r,e Waters of Minnetonka” very ef- ryictively.

A musical ngWing “Rainbow Bridge,” was given T^ Sarah Blackwell. The program arts concluded by an interesting, d tnprehensive book review of Edna t-^rber’s “Show Boat,” by Madeline I l^y. cs^he following new officers have en elected for the coming term: _^a Henderson, president; Elizabeth jgjnton, vice-president; Edna Wil- j 3e, recording secretary; Madeline py, corresponding secretary; and psie Owen, censor. The Power of Quietness By Roy Griffin. “In quietness and in confidence shall be your strength” (Isa. 30:15). The natural tendency in this age of hurry and worry is toward a life of noise and restlessness. The prince and the power of the air that works in the children of disobedience is constantly urging them toward an existence of tumultuous uproar and turbulent agitation. Quietness is an exception to the rule. The student, girl or boy, who often retreats to the secret chamber of prayer, is pitied by the so-called intellectuals of the campus. Many times the countenance that is wrong fully called sad is merely the expres sion of blessed secrets hidden away in a heart of great joy. God’s greatest men have been those w'ho led the quiet, confident life. In the hushed silence of the desert, at the mountain of God, Moses received a heavenly message from the angel of the Lord, beheld the flaming vision, and heard a voice Divine. Elijah won many victories, but be came discouraged and afraid. He lay down under the juniper tree and prayed God to take his life. His heavy-laden spirit impelled him on until he came to a cave on Mount Horeb. A howling wind rent the mountain, but God was not in the wind; then came an earthquake, but God w’as not in it. A blazing fire ap peared; the Lord was not in it. Even the roaring earth, the trembling earth, and the glaring fire could not move the troubled prophet; but a still small voice melted his heart and sent him back on his mission for Je hovah. The quiet life is the powerful one. In the meditative silence of the morning or in the somber evening hush, when all nature is still, the seeking soul can find God precious. Anxious cares flee away; all the trees of the field clap their hands; heaven enters the inviting breast, and the kind Spirit of God whispers softly, “Thou art a child of the King.” Much Ado About Nothing This here column is going to be less ado about even less nothings this week for obvious reasons. The main trouble is that there simply doesn’t seem to be anything to write about. Chivalry made some bird a good sub ject, but judging from the torrid re marks that were handed the poor guy it didn’t take so well with the fem inine contingent of the campus * * * Then there’s the matter of styles in haircuts. They go from one side to the other. One bunch have had their hair cropped doss to their heads and several others have struck for great er beauty by having theirs waved. Can’t seem to tell which looks the worst, but if some one can invent a style that will bring us basketball luck please do so at once. * ♦ ♦ Get some one to tell you about Graydon Jordan’s experience with the bear at Lenoir Rhyne. They said that Jordan set a new dash record in that event. Andy, Dean, and Cecil weren’t far behind at the finish. * * * Bill Capel was overheard to remark yesterday to Luther Meares: “Say, Luke, I missed an important biology lecture while I was away.” Luther replied, “Well, I was there, but you didn’t miss any more of it than I did.” * * * Glady Farmer in the International Relations Club program was givin a part on Peru. She comments: “In the western part of Peru the land is so dry that it cannot be used unless it it irritated” (irrigated). • • * Floyd Williams giving part on Bo livia in the same program says that long ago Bolivia agitated their inde pendence and finally secured it. * • • During this program of jokes Frank Dale was presiding. Evalee Snelson offered her resignation from the club. Frank did not know or had forgotten Evalee’s name. He stutter ed for a while and finally said: “Well, you’ve heard what the Madam says.” • • • I suppose that everyone has notic ed the new style of haircut that Ray Bowman has been sporting around here lately. Wonder who is going to follow suit? Two B. S. U. Officers Elected Due to the fact that Miss Ruth Cooper, former recording secretary of the B. S. U., and Mr. Robt. Barnes, former associate president of the B. Y. P. U., found it necessary to be away from the college this semester, new officers were elected by the stu dent body to fill the places left vacant by them. Miss Patty Moore, a mem ber of the C-I class, was elected to be B. S. U. secretary and Mr. Quentin Plumblee, of the Senior class, was elected associate president of the B. Y. P. U. work. The B. S. U. represents the unit of the religious organizations. It is the student body, and its council mem bers lead its work. It is evident that the fine, efficient ability of Miss Moore and Mr. Plumblee will be shown by their new service in the council. I ANNEX CAFE C Ml ^ cmt*r t* tbs collefs maa aad car* hit hangar.

MOVING NEW SOUPLINERS By J. F. Huskins In the springtime when a young man’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts , of love, the soupline will be full and ' running' over. This will be the case if the traditions of the past are car ried out. And then, one must remem ber that the soupline is an alluring, yea, an enticing thing; for it catches even the shyest ones sometimes. It has been learned from a reli able source that Elizabeth Minton ventured from beneath the homely roof of Spilman and announced her self as a brand new member of the giddy host. James Baley and Frank Huskins are planning to compose a C-2 soupline of themselves and their lucky girls at some early date and venture forth upon the sea of ex perience. There have been several philoso phies of life introduced, and all the great men call them theories. The philosophy of the soupline is soon to be introduced, but the theory part is entirely obliterated. They, of the new adventurers, shall set forth upon the soupline to establish two facts, so important in their fuller sense that they hope Mars Hill will not willing ly let them die. The need of the age compels them to make the following declarations: first, what is needed is fewer women models and more model women, and second, fewer permanent waves and more permanent wives. When these two pressing needs are filled. Hoover can relinquish his spec ial session of Congress, the McNary- Haugen bill can be cast out, and MAN can rejoice. Mr. Blackwell Gives Lecture on Bible ‘How We Got Our Bible” Is Subject at Evening Service. j Everyone who attended the preaching service on Sunday night, .February 3, greatly enjoyed the un usually good message brought by Mr. Blackwell. In this delightful message there was great educational value as well as spiritual inspiration. In a very vivid and pleasing way the speaker told us how our Bible, God’s word, has come to be. Probably many who had never before thought much about the question were put to think ing, and desiring to know more and more about it. He caused all to have a greater sense of appreciation for the Book. “The Bible is a book of faith, a book of doctrine, a book of morals, and a book of religion, of special revelation from God. But it is also a book which teaches man his own responsibility, his own dignity, and his equality with his fellow men,” Mr. Blackwell said. The story of the development of the Bible, how it has been rewritten and revised in the different ages; how earnestly and diligently men have striven to under stand more about it and to actually know it better, and how they have suffered severe persecution in order to present it to us, was a passing romance, he revealed in closing. “The history of the Bible revision is not closed, and the final outcome is yet to be seen. So long as God puts into the heart and mind of man the de sire for a fuller knowledge of Truth as it is in His Son, just so long will research and Bible revision continue,” he declared.
