C. has a history reaching far back into the period of ante-bellum life. It was chartered in 18 8 as Greensboro Female College, and is the second oldest char- tered institution for women in the South. The cornerstone of the first build- ing was not laid until 1843. and it was not until 1846 that the college opened its doors for students. The first president was the Rev. Solomon Lea. who was rated as a capable and well-equipped teacher, and he was assisted by an able faculty. At once the college drew to its halls many students from the far Southern states. Dr. Lea was succeeded in the presidency by Dr. A. M. Shipp. a man whose record as an educator is written high in the years of service. He ad- ministered the affairs of the college for three years, after which he resigned to accept a professorship in the University of North Carolina. His successor was Dr. Charles F. Deems, afterwards widely known as the pastor of the Church of Strangers in New York City. Under the presidency of Dr. Deems the col- lege enjoyed an era of great prosperity. The fourth president of the college, successor of Dr. Deems, was Mr. 1 . M. Jones, whose memory hundreds of noble women rise up to call blessed. During the presidency of Dr. Jones, the main building was destroyed by fire. This calamity, joined by misfortunes brought by war, necessitated the closing of the school for ten years. The cornerstone of the new building was laid in 1871, and in August, 1873, the school opened its doors for the reception of students. Dr. Jones continued at the head of the institution until his death in 1890, greatly lamented by the church and the constituency he had served so well. Dr. B. F. Dixon was his successor. His presidency extended over a period of three years, when he was succeeded by Dr. Frank L. Rcid. who was at the time of his election editor of The Raleigh Christian Advocate. He had fairly begun what promised to be a great and successful experience in the discharge of his duties when he was suddenly called from his earthly activities by the messenger of death. Dr. Dred Peacock, who had been a useful member of the faculty, was elected to the presidency on the death of Dr. Reid. On account of ill health. Dr. Peacock resigned his post in 1902, when Mrs. Lucv H. Robertson was elected as his successor. She had been, for a number of years connected with the school as a member of the faculty, and the success which attended her administration was no surprise. Between 1902 and 1904, untoward conditions came upon the college. First its Board of Trustees were greatly discouraged on account of stringent financial conditions, and decided to put the property in process of liquidation. Later the main building was destroyed by fire. The end of the institution now seemed to have come; but. through the almost superhuman efforts of the alumnae and the cooperation of the annual conferences a new and splendid building was erected in 1904. and the school opened with the largest registra- 77] • ■ ® - • ©-O-i © - ♦ - @ O- • C Sy_ - tion of students known in its history. Since then its prosperity has continued. A new dormitory was erected in 1912. known as Fitzgerald Hall. The build ing was named in honor of J. W. Fitzgerald of Linwood. who gave $10,000 towards its erection. This building was filled to its capacity as soon as it was opened to students. In the year 1913. Mrs. Robertson having resigned, Rev. S. B. Turrentine, D.D., a member of the Western North Carolina con- ference, was elected president. Since his election a new dormitory has been erected and was opened in the fall of 1917. This building is named Hudson Hall, in memory of Mrs. Mary Lee Hudson of Shelby, N. C, whose dona- tions to the college amount to more than $1 5,000. A beautiful building, the Odell Memorial, was erected in 1922. at a cost of about $180,000. for which Mr. J. A. Odell gave $100,000. This building, including an auditorium and conservatory of music, was erected in memory of Mrs. Mary Jane Odell, wife of Mr. J. A. Odell. In the meantime the prosperity of the college has continued. The physical equipment has been enlarged and improved. Mr. B. N. Duke has given over $100,000 on the endowment fund, and the total assets of the college are now valued at over one million dollars. THE GREENSBORO COLLEGE CREED We believe in being rather than in seeming; in the devotion to high ideals: in daring to do our duty as we understand it. We believe in having an attentive eye. a listening ear, a busy brain, in keeping the mind clear and bright, filling it with wholesome thoughts of life; in losing ourselves in useful industry. We believe in being worthy at all times; in having grim energy and reso- lute courage for the conquest of fear; in gaining confidence in our ability. We believe in service, in doing kind deeds, thinking kind thoughts, in being strong, gentle, pure, and good; steady, loyal, and enduring. We believe in reverence for the truth; humility; in great aspirations and high ambitions; in toiling ever upward. We believe in cultivating the bright virtue of patriotism and the holy passion for friendship. We believe in studying hard, thinking quietly, speaking gently; acting frankly: in listening to the winds, the trees, the stars, and the birds, to babes and sages with open hearts; we believe in being glad, in loving all. in hating none, in doing all bravely, bear ing all cheerfully, awaiting all occasions, hurrying never. We believe in striving to gain sound knowledge, not content to simply know, but determined to use knowledge for the highest purpose. We believe in man and woman, in God ' s unending love, and in the future.

She possesses a variety of talents. If music be the food of love, play on. BlBs has innumerable admirers — and carries on excessive correspondence courses.

Most charming and most sincere our Alma Mater has characterized LUCILE: because we who i now her realize that she is thoroughly charming in manner and appearance and that above all she stands for sincerity. She possesses all those char- acteristics typical of the old-fashioned girl together with the frankness and good sportsmanship of the modern girl. As president of the Irving Literary Society she has shown her capability as an executive and leader. A girl whose popularity will never wane, and whose personality cannot fail to win for her an enviable place in the outside world. • T= ' ;7=:rcT .i Elizabeth Hortense Bell.

Always neat in appearance, she goes about her daily tasks with a vim antd vigor that is truly char- acteristic of her pleasing manner. She is good in everything from managing to studying.

Witty, spark- ling, vivacious, yet deliciously serious. ALICE causes us to ponder at her numerous admirers. Always con- scientious in practice at her beloved piano, we do not wonder that she has mastered her art. She has gen- uine love for music and is an ardent champion of the B.M. degree.

Fig- uratively speaking, that same comrade may .save our lives by her nerve, loyalty, aim. and coolness. We would gladly trust our lives with RuTH. She is unanimously loved by the Seniors. We are flattered that she came back this year after a year at Davidson. We would have missed tremendously her abilitv. sportsmanship, and true practical ideals.

Carmell wins the love and admiration of all She not only possesses rare charm and beauty, bul also qualities that go to make an all-around girl, sincere, witty, original, dependable — ideals in the Land of the Sky — that ' s CarmELL. She is ex- tremely versatile: she can play. sing, and parlez- vous fluently. She possesses unusual intellectual attainments, and linguistic ability. She is ever a champion for the right. Her knack for winning hearts is extraordinary. BuENA Vista Fuller. B.M. WHITEVILLE. NORTH CAROLINA Irving Literary Society: School of Music (1. 2, V 4): Hikers ' Club (1): Fire Lieutenant ( 1 ) : Y.

Vista has a brilliant mind and is not only a good student but a good sport as well. She some- times reminds us of a mischievous little boy brimful of life and fun and always ready for a new escapade. A mixture of pep, energy, and common sense. ViSTA can accomplish a task in half the time it takes most of us to do it. Her keen mental faculties arc en- viable, in musical technique ViSTA is unexcelled, and we realize that she has unusual talents. Her musical ability together with her ambition and de- termination assure us that she is headed for the goal of success. Eunice Olivia Goode, A.B Denton, North Carolina Rutherford College (I. 2) ; E Society; German Club (3); Glee Club (3) Biology Club (4). It is not often that one lady secures from kind fate as many excellent qualities as OLIVIA owns. The mystic wand gave her wisdom, sincerity, and wit. Her voice, low and musical, reminds one of moon- light nights with silvery shadows dancing across the sky. The expression in her eyes betrays her se- cret: she sees visions and dreams that our feeble efforts are unable to probe. Sally Gordon. B.M. Hamlet.

Ncedli I ' ere frightened, but we would not have shown it for the world. By dinner time every girl had met her roommate and had sworn to stick it out somehow. About bedtime a terrible thunder storm arose, and that and the newness of the situation added to our misery. Many of the girls awoke about midn.ght to be asked if she minded and to roll over and share her bed And then the two. strangers no longer, went to sleep to dream of the home folk. After that first day things began to cheer up. for the old girls were doing all they could to make us feel welcome. There was the faculty reception, which turned out to be rather jolly, and the Y. W. carnival, and the Students ' and Athletic Associations ' Japanese party, and at the end of the week we had found out that college life was hardly the worst thing in the world By this time we had gone through all the terrors of an omnipotent classification committee, had several times suddenly found ourselves in the room with Senior English or Calculus, had frequently searched the campus for L. Hudson, had even finally found the right room and learned that we were no longer high school girls but college students and expected to act as such. ' After four weeks of delightful ' rushing came Decision Day and. of course, the usual society proper-gander ' But even this came to an end That night everv new girl went to sleep with the feeling that no better decision could have been made and. in the bottom of her heart, a vow to be loyal to the best society in the world. Hallowe ' en we received interesting invitations to a spook party which the sophomores were giving: it turned out to be a hair-raising affair with ghosts and chains and groans enough to make the Shades envious. Just before they let us go they fed us. though, for even sophomores know that the best way to make slaves of people is to feed them. Our big sisters gave us a party Christmas, and Santa Claus made us feel quite at_home as he distributed gifts to us around the tree. That spring on Field Day we biought honor upon ourselves by winning the highest number of points, a feat which is not veiy often performed by a freshman class- Thus ended our first year. Next September, as sophomores have the reputation of doing, we came back with the world on one knee before us. It was a rare treat to see the freshmen go through the same miseries which we had suffered, but the very height of our joy came the week that they were forced to go ' cosmctidess. We were obliged to feel a little sympathy for them then, and we soon learned that they were not to be scorned. But well never stop believing that we helped to make better women of them. In the spring of that year the event which stood out most clearly, perhaps, was the picnic which our big sisters gave us and the night on the campus which followed when they lent us their privileges for the next day. It is hardly necessary to say that we enjoyed that next day to the limit. But it brought us to a realization of their approaching commencement and the empty place which they would soon leave on the campus and in our hearts. It was not until our junior year that we really learned to find our place in the scheme of things. We mothered freshmen and especially our little sisters until we felt quite responsible. All our spare time went toward sandwich-selling and sweater-washings until finallv the night came for the junior-senior banquet. It was our last tribute to our sisters superior, and we put into it our whole hearts. And now that we are seniors and have the climax almost within reach, we would gladly go through it all again — suffer the pangs of homesickness and examinations and fires — could we experience again its joys and friendships. We hope that, with the memory of all you have meant to us in our hearts, we shall be worthy of you. and half as true to you as you have been May the future give to you whom we leave behind the fulfillment of all your dreams. — Melissa Blackwell.

November 1 3. 1926. was one of the most exciting days of the college year. There was the usual hurry and excitement about the campus. and early the colors of the different classes were flying. The hard-fought basketball game between the seniors and the freshmen started the day off with a flourish. The game was one of unusual excitement and interest throughout. The seniors were playing for the championship cup. having won in basketball the previous year, while the freshmen were equally as eager to show their athletic ability. There was hard fighting on both sides, as well as good sportsmanship, and much rooting from the side lines. At the end of the first quarter the score was 8 to 6 in favor of the seniors. At the end of the second quarter the senior score was the same while the freshman score had advanced 4 points. During the third and fourth quarters the game was very close — first one side leading and then the other.

With each year new vigor and new spirit have entered into the work of the administration. Always the basis tudent government has been the honor system. Our goal has not yet been attained; we place our ideals in a high zenith. With the present freshman class as valuable material with which to work, the Y. W. C. A and Student ' s Association held training classes during September. The freshmen were coached along lines of college life. The Students ' Handbook was our text-book. the privilege of our student body to be represented at the United Student Federation of America, at Ann Arbor, Michigan. The inspiration and real work accomplished at this conference give reason for wonder. The theme of the federation. The Student ' s Part in Educa- tion. was one which showed us that we must attempt much to achieve much. An amendment to our present constitution was adopted in February. The amendment institutes the Australian ballot system into our student elections We have also encouraged forum discussion in our mass meetings. Incidentally, in comparing our problems with those of other colleges, especially Southern ones similar to Greensboro College, we have gained courage as we learned that all government bodies have the same problems and same ideals. Our shortcomings have been many; our perfections almost none. Still we build, and may we unanimously say. ' Build me straight, O worthy Master ■ GREENSBORO COLLEGE Y. V. C. A.. 1926-27 The present adminislralion of the Young Women ' s Christian Association began March 1. 1926. ' e were charged to live unreservedly Jesus ' law of love that each girl might have that fullness and abundance of life, which to have is to know God. The various committees have sought to carry out the purpose of the Y. V. C. A. in every activity. Visits have been made to the Masonic Home, the Children ' s Home, and St. Leo ' s Hospital regularly. At Christmas and Easter time fruit and other gifts have been taken to these institutions. Another source of joy to us was a Christmas tree given for about thirty-five poor children of the city who otherwise would not have had one. Believing that Jesus taught the brotherhood of man and that we are a part in a great world scheme, we have endeavored to extend our reach beyond the confines of our campus. A three weeks ' program of Mission Study classes at which were discussed race, economics, and other world problems proved to be very helpful. This week of study culminated with a series of evangelistic services. We have had as visitors on our campus a number of people who have shared with us their wider and richer experiences. Among these are Miss Lillian Lehnoff. Student Secretary of the Methodist Church; Mrs. H. R. Steele, candidate worker of the Methodist Church; Miss Anne Wiggin, Miss Jessamine Tenner. Miss Kathcrine Butler. National Y. W. C. A. Secretaries; Mrs. Cornelius, of India; Mrs. Charles Corbctt. returned missionary from China, now secretary of the Council of Christian Associations; Mr. George Collins, secretary of World Fellowship and Reconciliation. We were very fortunate to have as our Commencement speaker Bishop James E Dickey. Methodist Episcopal Church. South. Rev E. L. Hillman. Pastor of Central Methodist Church. Raleigh. N.

Miss Margie Marsh starred in the play She was well suited to the role of Beverly Blakeney. engaged to Dick Hardwick. well played by Miss Meeker. Beverly was giving a fancy dress ball at her home, and was proudly wearing the famous ' heart diamond necklace, a gift of her fiance. An old friend of the family, a gem expert, came to see the necklace, when Beverly discovered it was gone! Detectives were called: the guests searched and the stone was found in Dick ' s possession. He was arrested and taken off to jail. The second act was a court scene. Prosecuting attorney gave convincing evidence against Dick Hardwick. Beverly was forced to testify against him. Some former owners of the stone told of its great value. All evidence clearly pointed to Dick ' s guilt. The trial was continued the next day. Most pathetic was Dick s soliloquy in his cell. His girl and all his friends suspected him of a crime of which he was not guilty He contemplated suicide, but his attention was arrested by a chorus of fellow sufferers, who entered singing Bye-Bye. Blackbird. As Beverly sat brooding over the past happiness and present misery, on Christmas eve in her home, one could see she still loved Dick. She had not lost faith in him. and yet his case did seem hopeless. Suddenly Dick entered, freed and ready to explain everything. He learned how anxious Beverly was to have the heart diamond necklace to show her friends at the ball. Unable to get the real stone in time, he had given her an imitation necklace When he heard of the experts arrival, he frantically took the necklace during the dance He wanted to save her the humiliation of the expert ' s examination, Beverly forgave Dick all JUNIOR STUNT The Junior class presented ' Cinderella a la Moderne ' as its annual stunt. The plot cen- ters around Mary ' Whitney (Jane ' Walters), an uneducated Western girl who is sent East to school by her foster fathers. Bill Lewis I Mae Kinsland) and Sam Burke (Margaret Hilderbrand ) . At first she is made very unhappy by the snobbery of her more fashionable associates, but with her sunny disposition she wins the heart of everyone, even the social leader of the school. Gwen- dolyn Bratton (Angelita Harrelson), During the years she was in school Mary meets and falls in love with Jack Gardner (Junanita Gregg), a young man of high social standing. At her graduation she realizes that on account of her social standing she must break her engagement. Her foster fathers, in an attempt to find out her real identity, discover that she is the sister of Gwendolyn, who had been lost out west in infancy. It is needless to say all ' s well that ends well. The choruses were unique in variety of steps, each presenting something new and snappy. Some of the outstanding choruses were, the College Chorus, the Black face Chorus, and the Old Fashioned Chorus. The choruses were directed by Jane W.ilters Margaret Fisher wrote and directed the stunt SOPHOMORF. STUNT The Sophomore class presented Ihe I. and of Romance on March 19. 1927. Virginia rSj Griffin played the part of the Princess in the Land of Romance, who was betrothed to a Prince (Annie Fuller Young). But the inevitable foreigner, plaved by Martha Austin, passed through the Land of Romance in his travels and beguiled the affections of the Princess. She was really so infatuated that she almost eloped with him. but fate intervened just in time to save her from his grasp. In the end. she married her Prince as all Princesses do. There was one lovely Fairy- land scene, the main feature of which was a snake dance by Margaret Rives The first seer rketplace in the Land of Romance, was very original. The play was written and directed by Crcelman Rowland. r,- Ttro IU«,lr,-J COLLEGE SONG UcjjT y- : by Mrv A K Mr To our dcjr old Alma Maler wc will sing ; All our hearts are filled with loyalty and lo For to her belongs all praise and honor :he Dawson, ng of praise: Tha an fr And for her we raise our hearts in praise above.

Not J girl was remembering or keeping a rule- The stockings were hung on the radiator with care, That each girl homeward could take a clean pair: And no girlies were nestled all snug in their beds For the Yuletide excitement had gone to their heads. But Miss Ricketts in her kerchief and Mrs, Sharpe in her ca Had just settled down for a long winter ' s nap. When up on the third floor there arose such a clatter. That Miss Ricketts rushed up to see what was the m.ilter Away from her warm bed she flew like a flash To the regions whence came such dm and such crash, Hor the loud joyous banging of doors in a row Gaye fear of destruction to objects below. Then what should her horror-struck vision assail But joy shrieking freshmen astride the banister rail: And lo, down the hall there came a parade That would make Barnum and Bailey retire in the shade. But more rapid than eagles their courses they took, I-or they had encountered Miss Ricketts ' hard look They flew into their rooms and hopped into their beds. And pulled the covers up over their heads. Such was the quiet that reigned on the hall That anyone listening could have heard a pin fall- But not for long was this quiet the case, F-or they soon came out again to continue the race. And again rose the racket of horns and drums. And the popping of bags like miniature bombs; While down in the lobby there sounded a crash Of tin cans intended for nothing but trash. And there was heard in the chapel a rumbling like ihundc That forthwith inspired and excited wonder ' Twas the organ that gave out such deafening peals That it brought forth many admiring squeals. But passed this night as many have passed. And the home going day arrived at last. To find, as dawn flamed in the east. Every girl up, and not tired in the least.

' A KISS A kiss is a noun because it is common and sometimes proper. A kiss is a pronoun because she stands for it. A kiss is a verb because it denotes action and expression. A kiss is a conjunction because it connects. A kiss is not an adverb, however, because you know not how. where. when, or why. A kiss is singular, but is used plurally. A kiss when not declined agrees with me. If a Hottentot taught a Hottentot tot To talk ere the tot could totter.

Mr. Gabb had on a charming afternoon coat of violet-pink crepe with green organdie trousers above the knee. The object of the meeting was to mend wives ' lingerie and cuss out the telephone service. Dishwater tea and A. V P. soda crackers were beautifully served by the attractive son of Mr. Gabb who entered the living-room decorated in a lovely Elgin wrist watch. The husbands opened their sewing bags, formed a circle, and discussed everybody in town. Mr. ' Victor Smell started darning a pair of his wife ' s hose, and six carpenters were called from the lumber yard to remove the west end of the living-room. Mr. Gabb threw open the doors to the sun parlor so the circle could see Mr. Pluto Castoria ' s new girlish bob. Everyone thought it a bright idea. Mr. Amos Sink told the circle that husbands should be given more house money or be allowed to take in boarders. Slim Income said his wife had prom- ised him a new fur coat when she got a raise in salary, but the boss gave her a raise in the elevator instead. The circle meets next month with Mr. Cyrus Pluck.
