GLEE CLUB HAS XMAS CONCERT Excellent Program Planned By Miss Starr SANTA’S MAIL BOX One of the prettiest of all the concerts presented by the Choral Club in the history of the school was given at four o’clock on Sun day afternoon. The college audi torium was packed with the stu dents and with people from out in town. ^ Miss Starr had turned the stage into a beautiful background for the girls, who were all dressed in white. The program was composed of an unusually large number of selected Christmas carols and Queens-Chicora College, The City of Charlotte. Mr. Santa Claus, North Pole Right Side of Street My Dear Sir; I have been informed that this is the sepon of the year in which it is fitting that I should advise you as to what I deem necessary that I should have at coming Michaelmas. This is the greatest present that I could ask of you. I want you to bring some sense for “my deah children.” Surely you will not fail at this needy hour, what with examinations staring us in the face. Feeling sure you will comply with my wishes and thanking you in advance, I am yours. Sincerely, Otis C. Ingebritsen. things you can think of so that I may loan them to other little girls and boys. Please bring me a telephone and a hot water bot tle, and that’s all. Good by, Margaret Wilson. Dearest Santa, How are you? It’s certainally been lonely around here and I’ve been working so terrably hard. I’m really tired. Bring me some powder and rouge and perfume. I d love to have some cook books and some patterns—and I’d adore a pretty little dolly. Don’t forget all the other little girls and boys. Lots of love, Maggie Collins. My Dear Santa, Well, it’s only a week till you’ll be tearing down my chimney and bringing me a few little presents, maybe, yes ? If you do perchance do that, here’s one thing I would appre date so much. You see, I need a new ‘Biology H book. I gave the girls a test the other day that just went from one end of the book to the other, and course I can’t use it any more. Won’t you look into this for me. Would certainly appreciate it. Heaps of affection, Eloise Green. Dear Santa Claus: Please bring me a big pencil box because I have learned to write my name and lots of other things. L would also like some good story books: Mother Goose Rhymes, The Bobsey Twins, and Elsie Densmore are my favorites. I don’t want to ask for too much but if you can please leave me a red beret and a scarf to match. And don’t forget the nuts, fruit, candy and my favorite lemon drops. With best wishes for a merry Christmas, Sallie McLean. songs. “Strangers say a King is Born,” ‘‘Hearken to Me Mother, Dear,” ‘Tryste Noel,” sung by the entire choral club, and “No Candle Was There,” sung by Martha Frazer, composed the first group of songs. The second group included two solos, “Sleep of the Infant Child,” by Margaret Lillard, and “Gloria In Excelsis,” by Martha Frazer, along with three carols, “Thou My Jewel,” “They Who Seek, Find,” and “Hark Bethlehem,” by the choral club. I his was followed by two more carols, “Tenderly, My Babe,” and “He is Sleeping in a Manger,” by the Choral Club, and a solo by Iris Bryson, “Rejoice Greatly, O Daughter of Zion.” Then came “The Flight Into Egypt,” sung by Iris Bryson and the Chorus. The last group was made up of another solo by Miss Bryson, “O Holy Night,” and two carols. “Angels Singing O’er the Plains” and “Silent Night,” by the chorus. This last number was especially beautiful, bringing to a climax the whole program with the appearance of a star in the back of the stage. Then the girls quietly went awa}^ still singing, and the song faded out in the dis tance. Dear Santa, I’ve been thinking of writing you every day but I’ve just been so busy. I hope you won’t slight me any on account of the depres sion. I’ll tell you what to bring me now. Please bring me a new bottle of foot-balls the ones you brought last year have kicked out. And will you please bring me a whole lot of other things like pans, rakes, axes, grates, biscuit cutters, and all the out landish Dearest Santa Claus: A jolly greeting to you, ole’ man. When you come clown our chimney, be sure to take off your gloves and get warm. The table by the Christmas tree will be large enough for the things we want. A nice checker board, some sparkles, fire crackers, a kaleido scope, a box of nougats and two framed pictures of Clark Gable and Greta Garbo will be sufficient. If you can’t bring us anything else, don’t forget the pictures. Good luck to you on your tour. Sincerely, Samuel and Wilhemina Byrd. (Continued! on back page) Home Ec. Christmas Party Huge Success On Tuesday afternoon, Decem ber 15, the Home Economic girls entertained eighty little orphans from the Thompson Orphanage and'from the Associated Charities.
