Page Eight THE SUN DIAL Moxtjeat College THE TYPOGRAPHICAL ERROR The typographical error is a slippery thing and sly You can hunt till you get dizzy, but somehow it will get by. Till the form is off the press it is strange how still it keeps; it shrinks into a corner and it never stirs or peeps; That typographical error, too small for human eyes Till the ink is on the paper, then it grows to mountain size. The boss he stares with horror, then he grabs his hair and groans; The copyreadcr drops his head upon his hand and moans. The remainder of the paper may be clean as can be. Rut the typographical error is the only thing you see. —Student Li eider. §djRAFFT 5 Selected Candies and Chocolates MORGAN CANDY COMPANY ASHEVILLE, N. C.

Montreat College THE SUN DIAL Pa$c Seven Madam X Observes that a great worn' is taken from the Senior College girls when the May Queen is elected. that Mrs. Dorsey’s little bird was proved fallible when lie told Madame that Hobby was married. Connie says that he is not, and that he thinks of her all the time. Good work, Connie? that a word to the wise is sufficient, so please don’t get Ruth Col- lette started on the subject of internes. that Miss Porter is still here. You know, Madame has heard that, just before the Christmas holidays. Miss Porter told the dean that another French teacher had better he lined up. “just in case.” that while the girls were going to see a movie the other day, a new student was enrolled in Montreat College. Ask Miss Miles! that Lib Hight must be going back to her childhood—else why was she singing “Good-morning to You one Monday morning when the first bell rang? that it’s a pretty ring Gerry is wearing. And aren’t the girls jeal- ous? You guess. that thoughts of rings and pins add dignity to the demeanor of Seniors. Don’t you think so? That must be the reason that not much has been heard from Ginny Ackiss lately. that one does not need more than five and one-half inches of hot water to take a bath. (Did someone speak of hot water?) Girls, be considerate of the assistant dean: Lake Susan is the place to go swimming, and not the bathtub. that there must be someone in Montreat who doesn’t like grits. Maybe there is. Anna-hoo. a girl who signs herself “L.A.” says. “There’s so much grits in Montreat that we even have hominy snow.” Catch on? that the girls, particularly Peggy Porter, enjoyed the visit recently paid by Marlise’s sister. that being a member of the Student Council certainly shows up a lot. that this is leap-year. (Madame is feeling hopeful these days, and she wonders if the girls, with unfinished term papers staring at them, are as hopeful as she.) that somebody has been rather extravagant with her perfume latelv. that Miss Watkins and her much discussed Bill” are becoming better acquainted every day. Enough said. that Mrs. Riley is becoming quite a socialite. Did you see her and that long maroon dress with the shim little pretties on it.'' Tut, tut. tut, tut. tut! Collegiate Spice Jennie DuBoss: “I’ve been stung by a wasp.” Lou Ada J.: “Quick, put some ammonia on it.” Jennie: “I can’t. It flew away.” -----o---- Miss Spencer: “Then, I heard that you struck Alice in the eye with your fist. Have you any explanation?” Mildred Coe: “Yes. ma’am. I’m terribly near-sighted. I only wanted to beckon to her.” .Miss Wade: “Gwen, if I substract 23 from 37, what’s the difference? Gwen C.: “Yeah, that’s what I say. Who cares?” -----o---- Miss Miles: “Didn't 1 tell you to notice when the soup boiled over?” Lib Check: “I did. It was half-past ten.” -----o---- Vivian S.: “Miss Smith, what's a parasite?” Miss Smith: A parasite is a man who walks through a revolving door without doing his share of pushing. Kay F.: Is Janet really a Scotchman?” Jinney: “Is she? She's even saving all her toys for her sec- ond childhood!” Wanted, by Nell Saries: A trip to the dentist. Nell broke a tooth while eating a biscuit one morning. Voice: Over Telephone: “Adelaide Brown is sick. Miss Spencer, and can’t come back to school Tuesday.” Miss Spencer: Who is speaking, please? Voice: This is my mother.” Miss Watkins: “Now. Peggy, your penalty for being late to class is to memorize the Psalm of Life. Peggy S.: “Yes. ma’am. What chapter of the Bible is it in? -----o----- And did you hear about Mrs. Riley trying to use her own keys to start Miss Wade’s car? Bad luck seems to dog at Becky Patton’s heels: Tanks ate some rat poison the other day. BASKET-BALL TOURNAMENT The basket-ball tournament between the four school teams is over. Honors go to the Hiwassie team, and the Choctaws were the runners-up. The final game was very exciting and both teams had the loyal, enthusiastic support of their tribes. A new star appeared in this game, Nancy Holler, a speedy brilliant forward. A lot of credit must be given to the work of guards in this game. Captain Hyatt says it couldn’t have been won without them, and Captain Brown, like the good sport she is. admits that they were “plenty good.”

TkeSUN DIAL Published by the students of Montreat C ollege Volume X .“DKC'|MBERj . . 5 Number i A Beauty Spot os the Montreat Collect Cxmpus THE NEW ADMINISTRATION BUILDING The October of 1935 will be long remembered as one of the most eventful months in the history of Montreat College, for in this month the new admin ot ration building was opened. At the present, eleven classrooms, the office's and book store have been completed and are being used. To an old student, this building marks the greatc t material improvement in the his- ton of the college. The building has three distinct features: 'I he first of these is the general appearance of the building. Similar to Assembly Inn in style, made with the same rare materials, it presents a pleasing picture as it stands on the crest of the hill behind the dormitory. Syinctrica! in structure and balanced in it setting it is ideally suited to the Montreat at- mosphere. The second feature is the inside arrangement of the building. Light walls, furniture of a light color, and well balanced light- ing make the classrooms ideal for working. The well-planned placement of windows and semi-indirect lights affords an abund- ance of light that is essential in an ideal classroom. One of the most useful conveniences is the large storing closet built in each room. The rooms are large enough to accommodate from twenty-five to forty students. The third distinctive feature of the new building is the equip- ment. The unique ami most interesting article of furniture is the new glass blackboards. Another asset to the teacher is the large bulletin board in each class room for the use of tem- porary or progressive illustrative material. TV College personnel is indebted to Mrs Anderson for her generosity and to Dr. Anderson for his ceaseless supervision and planning of both building ami equipment. Having given their unfailing energy and enthusiasm to the growth and devel- opment of the College since its founding, this new building stands as a permanent, perfectly expressive monument to the service of these two people.
