As the commencement season approaches, social events keep springing up until they are as thick under foot as violets in springtime. Almost every sunny afternoon a laughing group of students, waving bulky paper bags of food and flourishing bottles of soft drinks, pass on their way to the Cascades for picnic. Recent jovial occasions about which we’ve heard include the all day trip to Asheville which the Business Club made. Members of the club visited leading business houses, received souvenir copies of the Asheville Citizen, lunched at the S. & W., and had some free time for shopping. At a buffet supper in the court of Edna Moore and New Dorm, the Scriblerus Club entertained a campus group of seventy-five. A pageant, “A Spirit of Beauty Walks the Hill,” written by Dr. Ella J. Pierce, was tbe feature of the evening. Lieutenant-Colonel Alexander drown, who has just returned .rom the European war theatre, was guest speaker at the Annual International Relations Club ban quet.

This medal is given by Mr. C. R. Edney, of Marshall. Three representatives from each of the two boys’ societies gave readings. Representing the Euthalian Literary Society were: Franklin Hopkins, who gave “The Greater Man,” by Grier D. Pat terson; Max Schrum, “This War Is America’s Vocation,” by Ir ving McDonald; and “Bretton Woods,” by Leo M. Cherne, given by Lynwood Lennon. Those rep resenting the Philomathian Lit erary Society were: Tertius Stough, who gave “In Me- moriam,” by James Taylor, James Ruffin, who gave “The Work - Peace,” by Franklin De lano Roosevelt; and “Ambition,” Charm is an attribute so easily jt applied to Jay Keeter that one can easily understand why the C-II’s have chosen him to be their president next year.

The conditions around us will be greatly changed; we will more or ess be on our own. Great temptations will face us, but if we place the ideals instilled in us at Mars Hill ahead we will be victorious. Simply by continuing and developing the life of Christian culture we have^eLed here, we may give the outside -orld a picture of our Alma Mater as we know her. Only by so doing can measure, make payment on our indebtedness to Mars Hill. Gandy Canes For Son Schubert*s Serenade- From the general reaction of the students, the Schubert Pr^^am giyen in chapel Wednesday in celebration of NationM Music Week, Ls one of the the most outstanding of the year We wish to re cognize Mrs. Elizabeth Souther, voice teacher and director of the glee club, for the splendid way in which the program was Presented The chapel programs, on a whole, have been exceptionally good this year The womL on our faculty have proved themselves equally as good orators as the men. In addition to the innovation of women speakers, the chapel programs have in other ways appealed to a wider variety of tastes this year. Peppermint stick candy is the substitute being offered by Pro fessor M. H. Kendall for the tra ditional cigars handed out on such an occasion. The occasion? The birth, on May 7, of eight-pound Mumphord Holland Kendall, III. Caught for an interview in the short time between his Bible classes and his trips to Asheville to see mother and son, Mr. Ken dall assured us that Mrs. Kendall and Holland (for so he is to be called) are doing fine. As we left Mr. Kendall, he was blissfully planning a fishing party for the men in his family. (Continued from Page 1) the school colors, blue and gold.
