THE CANDLE Entertainments N january 29th, the lN'estminster Choir, under the direction of Dr. John Finley XYilliamson, gave a wonderful concert in Altoona. On this occasion the boarders were the guests of the school. The program of songs, both sacred and secular, delighted us all and the whole evening was a memorable experience for all of us, especially for those who had not had the opportunity of hearing this famous choir before. lVhat a lesson we had in attention to the conductor's baton, in attack , in light and shade, in enunciation! It was truly an inspiring experience from start to finish. February 16th was another red-letter day. Mr. Earle Spicer, the well-known baritone, gave an evening recital at school and remained for the week-end. His program included American and English ballads, ancient and modern, grave and gay. Of the selections from overseas, The Bashful Lover proved the favorite, while Shortenin' Bread and The Train Today to Morrow from the American section of the recital gave great pleasure and were repeated later. Gn Sunday morning, Mr. Spicer generously gave us a second recital before he left for his train. QXQG Addresses of the Faculty Miss ELIZABETH BALDVVIN .

- -- THE CANDLE visit to the tomb of the lfnknown Soldier at Arlington Cemetery. Dinner and a movie finished the day, and we were not at all sorry to go to bed. On Sunday we rested during the morning, and broke our return journey to visit the great cathedral that is rising on Mt. St. Alban. A further stop for a meal was the only other interruption of the drive back to school with minds stored full of new impressions and grand memories of an unforgettable experience. To those who planned, to those who looked after us on the way and in the city our best thanks are due for a very happy weekend. SUSAN SXYARTZ. GSNQD ummer Session I-IEN I entered the gates of Columbia University for the summer session. my feelings were a mixture of excitement and fear! The size and the unfamiliarity of the institution fascinated yet intimidated me. Registration passed ofi' quickly and I was launched on the seas of new adventures before I had time to catch my breath. One thing I had firmly resolved to do. I was going to keep my inexperience hidden, and assume the detached manner of a veteran student. However, with memories of high school training fresh in my mind, I invariably sprang to my feet the minute my name was called for recitation. This childish and embarrass- ing habit, combined with my inability to recognise the beginning and ending of an assignment, surely must have given me away, but it took one last episode to convince the class of my youth. NVe were studying numerals, and as an exercise, the professor asked for the date of the birthdays of the students. .Xfter calling out names and receiving the answer Nineteen hundred and fourteen or fifteen as the case might be, he called on me, who in all simplicity and truth replied: Nineteen hundred and eighteen . There was a silence for a few seconds, then smiles and chuckles and finally the whole class burst into laughter. My pretenses were exposed. From that moment I was treated by my fellow- students as the baby of the class. They would point out, with maddening kind- ness, the place in translation every few minutes, or explain with infinite care some very obvious bit of grammar. Nevertheless, the summer was a wonderful one and I enjoyed myself greatly. I-'leasant memories of beer parties in the Deutsches Haus, and of other social events outweigh by far the memories of those first few confessions of my youth and ignorance. I left Columbia with many a backward glance. I had made many new friends and met new experiences and had had a small but very sweet taste of university life. HELEN Ht'c.HEs. 41
