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 resolute 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, speak- ing gently; acting frnakly: 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, bearing all cheerfully, await- ing 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. So lomon li abl e facu lty. Dr. L( edi Kator is three yea rs. HISTORICAL SKETCH QRKENSBORO COLLEGE, located at Greensboro. N. C. has a history reaching far back into the period of ante-bellum life. It was chartered in 1838 as Greensboro Female College, and is the second oldest chartered institution for women in the South. The cornerstone of the first building was not laid until 1843, 3nd it was not until 1846 that the school opened its doors for the students. The first president was the Rev a, who was rated as a capable and well-equipped teacher, and he was assisted by an At once the college drew to its halls many students from the far Southern states a was succeeded in the presidency by Dr. A. M. Shipp. a man whose record as an ■vritten high in the years of service. He administered the affairs of the college lor after which he resigned to accept a professorship in the University of North Caro- lina. 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 college en- joyed an era of great prosperity. The fourth president of the college, successor of Dr. Deems, was Dr. T M. Jones, whose memory hundreds of noble women rise up to call blessed. During the presidency of Dr. Jones, the main building of the college was destroyed by fire This calamity, joined by misfortunes brought by war. necessitated the closing of the school for ten years. The cornerstone of a 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, Reid. 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 charge 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 10 02 and 1904 untoward conditions came upon the college. First, its Board of Trustees was greatly discouraged on account of stringent financial conditions, and decided to put the property in process of liquidation. Later the main buliding was destroyed by fire. The end of the institution now seemed to have come; but, through the almost superhuman efforts of the alumna; and the cooperation of the annual conferences, a new and splendid building was erected in 1904. and the school opened with the largest registration of students known in its history. Since then Us prosperity has continued A new dormitory was erected in 1012 known as Fitzgerald Hall. The building was named in honor of Mr. J. W. Fitzgerald .0 Linwood. who gave $10,000 towards its erection. This building was filled to its cap.icnv as soon as it was opened to students. In the year 19 13. Mrs. Robertson having resigned. Rev S. B. Turrcntine. D.D.. a member of the Western North Carolina Conference, was elected presi dent. Since his election a new dormitory has been erected and was opened in the fall of 1917. Ilns building is named Hudson Hall, in memory of Mrs, Mary Lee Hudson of Shelby. N. C. whose dona is to the college amounted to more than $13,000. A beautiful building, the Odell Memorial, was creeled in 1922 at a cost of about $180,000. for which Mr. J, A, Odell jave $100,000. This building, including an auditorium and conservatory of musil was erected in memory ol hs 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 more than $100,000 to the endowment fund, and the total .isscls of the college are now valued at over one million dollars On College Hill mm The Fountain Looking S orfh from Fitzgerald ' Torch Fitzgerald Hall Odell Memorial Looking South Toward Alum College Brook -Mum Cntrance to C am P us Samuel B.

PROPHECY JT WAS probably due to my insatiable desire for traveling, the strain of wanderlust in me. which led to a strange occurrence, bringing me such unusual and unlimited pleasure. It was the year 1938, the year that proved to be the end of my long journeys and travels, that this event occurred. I had been traveling from one place to another ever since my graduation from Greensboro College, and my experiences had been varied, pleasant, and not without some degree of danger at times. In this particular year, on this particular day, I was so fortunate as to be traveling in a caravan which was slowly wending its way across a desert of an Eastern country — a country known for its magic, folklore, and charms. Indeed one could not pass through that country without feeling the spell of the surroundings. In the same howdah with me was a beautiful maiden from India, an Ouled Nail, who was as beautifully Eastern and as picturesque as her own native land. At an earlier date I had rendered her some small service when she had been placed in an unfortunate situation and she. with a grateful heart, had pleaded to go with me and serve as best she might. At this time she was telling me in her sweet, low voice an old Eastern legend- — a story of fair princesses and princes, with all the proper elements of magic. Strange to say, 1 could not bring myself to pay attention to her; her voice seemed to sink me in memories of the past; the beautiful dark eyes of the Ouled Nail, the glow of the desert, the rocking and swaying of the camel, the occasional shouts of the camel drivers all added to the spell There came to my mind. why. I know not, the retrain from a song which I had heard in New York long ago Time will tell, just where each one ' s future dwells — and our dreams, all through Life come true it seems — that s whal the Future means, but only time will tell I was unconsciously humming this refrain, when a jolt of the howdah brought me back to the reality, and I was both surprised and em- barrassed to find the soft brown eyes of the Ouled-Nail fixed upon me. The heavy d.ark lids were half-closed and a strange light s hown in her eyes, producing a mystical, hypnotic effect upon me. Oh, my child. I do not know why I am so inattentive today; please continue vout story. I promise you full attention. Not so, oh lady of mine. she responded. I sec that the great spell of the mighty desert hath fallen upon you. May Allah forgive me for trying to pit my feeble strength againsl that of the Great Desert Lord in attempting to hold thy heart. He hath claimed thy love — yield to that, for dusk is softly approaching, and soon the thousands and thousands of the candles of the night will appear;, then the Great Lord of Sleep of the Good will break the spell of the Desert Lord. I hastily denied that 1 was weary of her legends, but with the customary Eastern persuasion and lovely choice of words, she declared that she must not attempt to entertain me bv her own effort. Oh. my mistress. I have with me a gift of an old, old, long-forgotten magician — a gift which hath been handed down from my father ' s father ' s father; and my father, having no son to gladden his heart, showered upon me all his love, and at the time when he was treated oh, so badly, when he was about to be called by Allah the Great to share with htm the pleasures of Paradise, he gave me this, and bade me treasure n as my life revealing it only to those whom I loved death- Would you, my lady dci n to gaze upon the wonderful secrets which the gods may reveal to thee through their humble handmaiden. ' Needless to say I wis most eager to see what new pleasurable thing this daughter of ■i could produce, and 1 readily assented From the folds of her silken Eastern dress the Ouled Nail drew lorth a tiny crystal ball, clear as purest water and gleaming with a thousand lights and shadows Many times I had read ol the crystal ball ga?ers. but now I was to have the pleasure ol seeing one adept in the true an As the git! stroked the crystal and crooned soft mystical phrases over it, I began to wondet what I should demand from its mystic depths Again the refrain But only lime will tell came unbidden to my mind. Since I 010. I had been away from mj native land; what were my friends dome,, my closest and best loved friends, my college friends, the ones nearest my heari ol those college friends lot ten long years I had been entirely out of touch with them — wandering all over the face of the earth A strange warmness of heart and inexpressible longing filled my enure being — where were they ' Oh, maiden sometime ago foi foui sens 1 lived worked with, and loved the dearesi group of girls in all the world Since then we hive all gone our different ways, and I have lost sighi ol them 1 wondet il your crystal globe can tell me anything of them ' rhi face i the lovely vr i r 1 clouded and she sadlv replied Ah, I am not so fortunate as I had thoughl I can only reveal to you the future My lady, wilt thou not listen and d 1 a silken pillov, into this treasur near my feet, she : for thyself.

The Ouled-Nail sighed, and then seating herself or I cannot tell this to thee, my lady, but thou may gaz crystal and gaze steadily into its magic depths while may perhaps be revealed to thee. I wonderingly took the crystal which she reverently handed me. The Ouled-Nail began to sing an old Eastern mystic song in a weird minor key. all the while keeping her eyes fixed on my face. A strange sensation came over me. and 1 seemed to be sinking into a stupor. I tried to lift my eyes to her face, but the crystal ball held them with its mystic power Yes. the clearness and purity of the globe were changing and strange sights were presented to my iriev 1 he size of the crystal grew larger until it loomed up before my charmed eve-, as a miniature universe where many people were acting their parts on the Stage of Life. On a beautiful sea. so calm and placid that the myriads of stars twinkled on its surface. I suddenly saw sailing smoothly toward me a galley, gleaming in the night like a huge silver dream As it came nearer. I could see a golden flag flying from the mast with the words The Piracy written on it. I scarcely needed to look closer to see the jolly four. Betsy Laves Adda Mae Gatlin. Margaret Payne, and Emily Commander — with their particular companions of course. I wanted to see who those companions were but a cloud floated across the scene, and after its passing the scene was entirely different. A ballroom in Paris — color, music, beauty, romance. Dancing with the handsome Count I recognized Aileen Chamblee. and on the opposite side of the ballroom I saw 1 ranees Dailcy talking to a distinguished Englishman in a very earnest manner, indeed. Nor was I surprised to see. seated in a corner well screened by many palms, the most popular heart-breaker of the evening Aileen Blaylock She was enjoying the agonistic gestures of a splendidly uniformed Italian officer who was genuinely stricken with the prevalent disease of the evening. This faded from my sight, and I saw a beautiful college of well-repute and standing In a few minutes I should see the lovely interior of the largest building, and by natural bent I sought the office of the dean. Here I found Daisy Herring holding supreme sway : she was in consultation with Mrs. Lillian Brown, who seemed awfully worried about the ignorance of her class concerning English grammar. Then in a twinkling I saw an airplane swiftly speeding through the soft clouds. Who were the six passengers? Well. I recognized the ladies — Irene Brooks. Betsy Yow and I ydia Cavincss. I was awfully afraid of some mishap, for the other occupants seemed to pay more attention to these feminine attractions than anything else: but this was not the case, for The scene had changed. I saw the coast of France on a misty dark morning The shore was lined with people eagerly scanning the sea and conferring with each other in low [ones Suddenly a cry of Hildy! Hildy ' rang through the air. and I saw them rush into the surf to lift to their shoulders the conqueror of the English Channel. Margaret Hildebrand The scenes came fast — a concert hall, crowded with many people drawn by the beautiful voice of Eloise Bass; a theater crowd, watching the wonderful acting of the famous players Mac Kinsland and Frances Bacon. Emma Cardwell Lively in a famous conservatory: the two inseparables. Ethel Butt and Mary Sheets, surrounded by newspaper reporters, who were clamor ing for the history of their very successful and marvelous careers. A leaf from a book floated past my eyes, and I caught with the name of Zilla Winn below ii Then out of the vague mistiness. I saw a shopping center where the elite of the city patronized. At one place Claire Worthington was examining lovely gowns; at another Clara Rigsbee was admiring costly jewelry. One could see that the Fates had been kind to them When the next cloud passed. I saw with astonishment a building with the words em- blazoned on the windows — See Us Last — Harrelson and Foster — Undertakers. Then I re- membered their ambition while in school, but their business was not so serious as it might seem foi I saw perfectly healthy gentlemen flocking in . . . The picture changed — among the slums of a large Northern city I saw something re- sembling a r.n of sunshine on a cloudy day.

Tennis Champion. 1927 TENNIS Much interest was shown in tennis this year. Both the Freshman and Sophomore classes were well represented in tennis singles. Those playing were Margaret Towe. a representative of the Sophomore class, and Helen Curtis of the Freshman class. Both participants played a very exciting game, and even though the victory fell to the Freshman with a score of 6-2: 6-2. Margaret Towe showed much skill at the game. Doubles were played by Margaret Towe and Jenny Lind Fox of the Sophomore class, and Louise Hatcher and Juanita Gregg of the Senior class. The games were thrilling and color was added by the cheering of the classes from the side lines. At times spectacular plays were made by both teams, but the steady, consistent game of the Seniors won the game for them 6-1 : 6-2.

It was a known fact that it would be a close game for the teams were evenly matched. The members of the four classes were almost entirely present; and the yelling and cheering of the sister classes on the side lines did much to keep up the spirits of the players. Both teams played a good game and it was hard to determine which team would come out victorious. When a score was made by one team, the other soon followed it up. The Sophomores should be commended for making only one foul during the entire game. The teamwork on both sides was unusually good and everyone agrees that the two classes are fine sports. When the whistle finally blew for the last time, and the score was counted, we found that the Freshmen had won with a score of 24 to 26.
