Social Life -1895- Cut from the first issue of THE SOUTHERN DEMOCRAT published in Blountsville 75 years ago. RECEPTION. The pupils and teachers of Blount College met in the Chapel Friday night for the purpose of forming the acquaintance of each other. The house was called to order by Prof. E. L. Blalock. First on the programme was music by Mrs. Clouston, the music teacher. Second, a song by the choir. Third, an address by Pres. Pat- terson on Etiquette. Fourth, a Duet Fifth, a recitation by Miss Sallie Chadwick. Sixth, Duet by Misses Lila and Alice Doyle. Seventh, a song by three young ladies-Misses Minnie Hudson, Sophia Burks, and Alice Doyle. By this time the young men were getting anxious for the good time to come. Can't say how about the girls, but suppose they were anticipating a good time too. The boys were getting real an- xious to talk to their girls, having applied themselves close to their studies for two months, and I think the boys enjoyed themselves as well as could be. Then the rush began. Some of the boys said they lived six week that night. By this time 10 o'clock had rolled around. Then the sad time came. The boys had to part with their best girls and oh! how sad this was. Many a good handshake and good bye were given. We hope the faculty will take off the restrictions again soon. I think a reception would be a good thing often. The boys have splendid lessons this week. Thanking the faculty for their kindness to the boys and girls, I will say Aurevoir. Cadet Reporter Bl
