of the family who was not present was
Dr. J. B. Hipps, who is professor and
dean of the theological school of Shang
hai Baptist College, Shanghai, China.
A profound gesture of respect was
made to Mrs. Hipps, the mother of such
successful sons, as all those present arose
quietly when she was presented.
The first charter of Mars Hill Col
lege was ratified February 15, 1859,
granting the college the “power of con
ferring all such degrees and marks of
literary distinction as are usually con
ferred in colleges and seminaries of
learning.” The college has never exer
cised its power to confer degrees as the
work rarely went above that of secondary
sehcpl-grader^untlLit; became a junior
college. The charter has been amended
six times since 1859, ^ '
In 1931 the college will celebrate its
seventy-fifth anniversary, having been
founded in 1856. Plans to increase the
permanent endowment of the college to
$250,000 in 1931 have been announc
ed. Mr. Hipps expressed the intention
of the alumni to further increase the
permanent assets of the college.
Charter Day will be celebrated annu
ally, President Moore said, and he ex
pressed the hope that the day could be
given over mainly to the alumni.

insisted on starting Christ

The pow’ers seemed liberal
in regard to holidays, the

hoped for Easter Holidays
from April 31 to 33. |
The Senior midnight par
ty which was staged before
8:30 A. M. on the after
noon of the 31st day of
February, was announced
not until all the midnight
oil had been drunk instead
of burned. This party was
a sw'ell affair and from
midnight «n it was all off.
Just to be sure that there
w'as not any wooing going

It was the nicest dumb af

Cold Wave Makes
Delay Possible.
For a long time some
form of relief has been
sought for the dateless
young men who occupy the
walk opposite Spilman
Home in the evenings and
on Sunday afternoons.
Though the frigid weather
for the past few months
has lessened the number of
sufferers, the coming of
spring will again find the
ranks fllled, it is feared.
The most feasible sug
gestion at present seems to
be the erection of s5me
such form of support as a
railing. Some of the more
sympathetic suggest seats.
A heartless minority would
have tear bombs used in
stead. The matter will per
haps be referred to the pro
per authorities at an early
date.

PROF. JUREDINE
BREAKS RECORD
The campus was given a
huge surprise this morning
when announcement was
made that Professor G. M.
Juredine, our modern Hou-
dini, was late for an 8:30
class.
Mr. Juredine was too
overcome with remorse for
having broken his record
for promptness to make
known the cause. The stu
dents sent him their note
of condolence
expressing
the hope that he would at
tend his 8:30 class even If
he were ’till 9:00

Mr. McClease made the
