CHANGING TABLES
(Continued from Page 1)
gins. Numbers are compared to sec
if there is a chance of two occupants
of the present table being together
for the ensuing six weeks. When this
is done the interest spreads to var
ious and often remote sections of the
dining hall. If the person is near, the
number can easily.be told, inaudibly,
by certain formations of the lips! Or,
if he or she happen to be too far
away, so many fingers are held high
that the numbers may be seen by
the other party! Yes, there are var-
ipps -ways by which numbers are
flashed to others.
About the time the excitement
reaches its climax the bell is tapped
and everything becomes still. The an-
npuncer begins: “This time tables will
be numbered as follows: Number one,
first table in corner to the right,” and
so on. “The heads of the tables are:
Number one, Mr. So and So and Miss
So and So.” This continues until
thirty tables are read with the names
of sixty persons who are to occupy
the heads of the tables.
Quiet reigns until the announcer
has finished. Occasionally a sigh goes
up from one who is seemingly in de
spair; a slight laugh can be detected
somewhere in the hall. But among
most of the students there is an aager-
ness to find who is to eat at his or
her table, and before everyone leaves
the hall he or she usually knows at
least two or three who will eat at
the same table.
Woman is the side issue of man.
No two are alike, and no one is alike
more than once. To follow the sub
ject from Eve to the present would
be beyond the power and comprehen
sion of man. We have very little
knowledge of her anyway. We do
know, however, that she is a jealous
creature and is easily made miserable
if she does not have fine clothes and
shining jewelry to fiaunt in one’s
face. No matter what may be done
for her, she is never suited. Raising
Cain was her first act. She is a dusty
and dry subject anyway; so there is
no light that can be thrown upon
her.
Philosophers tell us that in the
ocean, though the waves roll as high
as the mountanis, a few thousand
feet down the waters are undisturb
ed. But no man has reached the
depth of woman’s nature, and no
sane man seeks or even dreams that
he can undrestand her. The ancient
mythologists painted their concep
tions of women as having snakes for
hair. Now behold her, with her hat
burdened with flowers and dead birds,
screaming at the sight of a little,
harmless mouse.
One could hardly imagine that
fashionable women, with their paint
and powder, short dresses and tooth
pick shoes, could be outstanding fig
ures in the days to come. We hear a
great deal about the new woman, as
though an improvement has been
made. There is no truth there; she
has never been patented and hence
cannot be improved. Although she
is in all the professions, she avail-
eth nothing. As a lawyer, she draws
your will in such a manner that your
attorney, registrar, and advertisers
will get the bulk of your estate. As a
doctor, she will punch, blister, and
poultice you until life loses all its
charm and you long for a quiet rest
ing place on the other side.
Now in the truer sense of the
meaning of the word “woman,” I
shall also give some definitions. With
all of her peculiarities, she is what
makes life worth living. Those who
shall be the women of tomorrow are
of the same flesh and blood as those
dear old mothers of ours who led in
all movements to make the race bet
ter. There has not been written or
sung a grander heroism, a more per
fect faith, or a more enduring cou
rage tlmn has been shown by the
women of our age and generation.
Women may bo apparently the but
terflies of fashion, to whom people
never give credit for thought beyond
the cut of a dress or the hang of a
skirt, but in my opinion the word
womanhood is just as sacred ns the
word manhood. Some men think
that it is perfectly all right to spend
nights in the indulgence of ungentle-
manly conduct and then expect to be
honored and respected by those who
are pure and undefiled. Men should
help build standards; women should
help build standards. There should
be no compromise. Not until both
men and women dare to do the right
and meet each other face to face will
there be any true nobility to answer
the notes of victory and chivalry.
The name of the Duke University
dramatic club is “The White Witch.”
At its last meeting some of the plays
of Eugene O’Neill were presented.

and fall down at another. Maybe it
is competition.

Mr. Blackwell Mfill Conduct
Devotional Periods
Money is the root of all evil and
many people are looking for the root.
Service is the rent you pay for the

Life is not measured by years but
by experiences.
The B. S. U. Conference of Wes
tern North Carolina will meet with
the Appalachian Training School at
Boone, N. C., April 6-7. The purpose
of this meeting will be to stimulate
interest among the new workers for
the coming school year. The general
theme of the conference Yvill be “His
Will—Mine.” The meeting will be di
vided into four sessions. Mr. Hoyt
Blackwell, head of the Bible Depart
ment at Mars Hill College, will have
charge of each devotional period. He
will speak on the following subjects:
“Seeking His Will,” “Knowing His
Will,” “Doing His Will,” “Loving
His Will.” Other speakers of the
meeting are: Dr. F. H. Leavell, Miss
Cleo Mitchell, and Miss Joy Beaman,
who is sponsoring the meeting. Sev
eral students will also speak.
Spring is here! And with spring
comes a determination to do our
work better. Especially is this true
in our Young People’s Department of
the Sunday School. Spring is the
time of an awakening. Our depart
ment has 373 enrolled. Only two stu
dents of our campus are disinterested
in Sunday School work. We have fif
teen wide awake classes for the en
lightenment of the student body and
toivn young people. The town boys
are especially active at the present
time.
Another thing of interest was the
small number of absentees Sunday,
March 24. There were only thirty-
five absent, and the most of these
were gone home for the week-end.
They could have left their reports,
however.
Hurrah, for the local boys! They
were 100 per cent last Sunday. They
have twenty-eight enrolled in their
class. Mr. Blackwell is their teacher,
and they are doing real work. Their
next duty is to help their sister class.
Good luck to you!
The thing most on our minds now
is the mission offering Sunday, March
31. We are anxious to make this the
largest contribution of the year.
Think of the good our small offering
can do someone. There are heads
bowed with a burden of sin that can
be lifted by our help. Will we do our
best? We are told “give and unto
you shall be given.” If we give liber
ally surely we shall be rewarded
many times.
Listen, students! We have only
two more months of school. Let’s
make this the very best part of the
term. How many will be 100 per
cent next Sunday?
