It is expanding as the spirit of Mars Hill students .expands. Ihe subscription of approximately $750.00 by the C-1 class for the enlargement of the Library is a splendid illustration of this. We commend the most excellent cooperation which the proposal has been accorded. May the trend continue. — o— —o- To A nother Class It is usually easier to remember—and to act—while in a class- meeting where payment for the swimming pool is being discussed. Yet the gift probably would be more appreciated if the donor goes personally to the Bursar and arranges for the transfer of room-rent to the fund for the pool. Have you arranged for that transfer.? -o- Some Prophecies Listed At commencement a few students, carefully selected by the dean of a university, were interview'ed as prospects for corporation posi tions. The interviewer, surprised that none were satisfactory, queried the dean. The finest students, he learned, had been en gaged six months before. This incident was related recently in the Forhes magazine in an article discussing the college student and the world he was about to enter. This angle was surprising, especially since the depression was upon the land. Yet the same subject, vital to every student, IS now receiving considerable discussion in leading periodicals. The following articles are available at the Library; Thornquest, C. J.: “Getting Down to Earth,” Forum, luly, 1932, 60ff. ' Fomw, supplement 12ff., June, 1932. “Three \ oung Men State Their Cases,” (a symposium) Scrih- eners\ December, 1932, 366ff. Hale, W^. H.. Address to ^ oung Men,” Scriheners^, August, 1932, 85ff.

Speakinp: of waiters, we have the best hunch of waiters this year that I have ever seen—they just keep waiting to bring out the food. But where could a more formidable ar ray of hash toters be found than in that group that boasts such plate pilots as the irresponsible “Stud” Posey, the incompatible “Big Shot” Myrick, and the incomprehensible “Sister” Whitesides? Not to men tion that irresistdble head dessert- snatcher, John McGeehee, who be lieves that an extra dessert in the hand is worth a dozen under the ta ble. Here are a few items picked up through key-hole interviews and by tuning in on Spilman gab sessions—The gals just will talk, you know. I’m wondering what this phrase, “The British are coming,” means any how. I’ve been informed that it makes a most appropriate pass word How about that, Bethea? They say it should be posted on a well known music room door—these Henderson ville week ends—my, my! I ve always known that dates grow in trees, but it took a well known lass from Hendersonville to prove that a date in a tree is worth several in the Sunparlor. Maybe it was another attempt at tree sitting, but I prefer to believe that something got her “up a tree.” Are you listening, Gar- nette? It has been brought to my atten tion that the annual Lionel Flack Valentine box of candy will be given away shortly. Line up, gals, only one more week left; so do yer dern- dest. However, we’ll place our mon ey on—oh well, tsk, tsk! Tutt, Tutt! again. (This is a typical and dyed- in-the-wool Spilman argument. Listened to, verified and au thenticated by the Spilman news bureau.) Christine: Well, you’ve been walking on my rug all year! Lily: That’s nothing! You’ve sons and you know what a deuce of a time I’m having with ’rithmatic.” Oh I know what we can do!” busts out Ella. “If you’ll go out for the team, I'll work your problems for vou.” derrnc. •• • ^ j •• ‘‘Okeh Babe,' comes back Flunky. “You’ve made a deal. I'll go out to morrow.” Flunky glances at his Timo- Bcrsoll and says; ‘Well sweet heart, it’s nine-thirty, I better be checkin’. Gimme a good night kiss and I’ll ankle over to the dorm and translate a coupla pages of Ballyhoo.” ‘Nothing doing, big boy,” says Ella pushing him away. “You’ll get no more kisses from me un- til you are playing regular cen ter on the team.’’ With that she shuts the front door, after push ing him out of it. After two weeks of practice Flun ky takes control of the center berth and soon becomes a mainstay in the team’s offensive, leading them to vic- (Continued on page 4) While walking throu^®’ lured, On you we can put I To A Pal Of ,T"''"F>OJ!i'TrC.CTital.

This columnist cannot refrain from paying a passing tribute to those of our number who have withdrawn quietly from our midst for reason’s of the school officials’ in the past few days. They pass in review. Dills, Icard, Hodges, Vereen, Moore, Nan- uey, Pigg, Vincent, Church and oth ers. But heavens help the school that should happen to get Dills, Icard, Vereen, and Nanney all together. These lads were irrefutably the best bull shooters ever gathered on one campus. But I shouldn’t talk about the departed. So ladies and gentle men this is Wilter Wunchell, who was brought up to believe that “a soft answer turneth away virrath, and a swift kick turneth away book agents,” now signing off.
