We have sincerely tried to fold into its pages some of the meaning of Shorter and of Shorter Spirit, which has already made so many girls into noble women. If at some distant time, when we have long since separated, you can take this book from your shelf and feel again the spirit of the White and Gold, so that you shall find in it again the inspiration of your youth—we shall not have failed.

I believe in the curse of ignorance, in the dignity of learning, and the joy of serving others. believe in wisdom as revealed in human lives as well as in the pages of printed books ; in lessons taught not so much by precept as by example, in ability to work with the hands as well as to think with the head, in everything that makes life large and lovely. believe in beauty in the home, in the classroom, in the workroom, and in the influence of God ' s great out- of-doors. I believe in laughter, in love, in faith, in all distant hopes that lure us on. I believe in the present and its opportunities, in the future and its obligations, and in the divine joy of ing, here and hereafter. 20 j A 5 • • • 5 • • • • • S S • • A • • • • • 0 • A I • • • • A ti • M • • .4! • A A.

I suppose it is entirely too obvious that every class that graduates had to be Freshmen first, then Sophomores, then Juniors, and finally Seniors. There seems to be no room at all for originality. And yet, I can say that our class is entirely original and unique. It is the only class to be graduated from Shorter College in 1927. We began our college career in the ordinary way as Freshmen. The big differ- ence between us and other Freshmen classes was that we were We. We were just so many individuals wandering around with a terrible uncomfortable feeling of always being in the wrong place at the wrong time until the Juniors called the Freshmen together to organize a class. We elected Helen Hardman, president ; Mary Moritz, vice-President ; Nell Spradlin, secretary, and Mary Louise Rosser, treasurer, and then began the existence of the Class of ' 27. We no longer felt lost. We now had a real place in the college. The proverb of the bundle of sticks was true in our case. We had strength in numbers. But our growing complacency and self-importance were rudely interfered with by another class, a synonym of autocrat and oppressor—Sophomore. For weeks we lived in suspense and dread. Then finally, the inevitable, the fatal clay arrived and we appeared in public in just such incongruous garbs as every one has had horrible dreams of going forth in. We must run errands, perform tasks, play jester and fool; an order from a Sophomore was a law undisputed. But initiation ended and Thanksgiving came, and with it our grandmothers, the Class of ' 23. They were very comforting and reassuring, as most grandmothers are. After a big turkey dinner there was a big pep meeting of the odd generation in scope room which had been changed by Juniors into High-Minded Haunt. It was very thrilling to be introduced into the ways of the high minded generation and to hear our elders sing High-Minded Song. In December came the triumphant message that Shorter had been granted bership in the Southern Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges. Although we were young and had not been on the Hill long we had caught the spirit of Shorter and could rejoice as exultingly as any other class over this new advancement. It was indeed a red-letter day and one that we shall not soon forget. Even the faculty came down from their dignity and joined in the delirious rejoicing. Everybody was eager with praise of Dr. Furry for his efforts in bringing about the recognition of Shorter as a standard college. The woes of a Freshman are numerous. After Christmas holidays came tions, our first college examinations, which needs no further comment. But in spite of the difficulties we proved to be a hardy lot and most of us survived the trying year. And in the Spring the juniors gave us a spend-the-night party at Maplehurst which I think we all agree atoned completely for all our hardships.

We had grown up to be Sophomores, and we were eagerly preparing a campaign of revenge on the innocent and unsuspecting Freshmen. It is so sweet a joy for the lately oppressed to turn oppressor. With Helen Hardman, Mary Moritz, Nell Spradlin and Katharine Orr for our officers this year, we domi- neered over the Freshmen and vindicated our wrongs by handing our punishment down to them. After we had completely satisfied our vengeful ambitions we settled down to a happy year of work. There were two notable events during our Sophomore year that meant much to every girl at Shorter. One was the announcement that came in January of Shorter ' s admittance to membership in the American Association of Colleges. This was another step forward in the general recognition of Shorter ' s academic standing. The other event was the election of Dr. Furry to the presidency. Dr. Furry had been Dean of Shorter for six years and it had been his efforts, enthusiasm, and ideals for Shorter that had brought about her great progress. So it was with great rejoicing that we welcomed him to the full leadership. As the year neared the end and we realized that before long we should have to bid our Seniors farewell, we gave them a banquet at the Hotel General Forrest. And there we received our heritage from them, High-Minded Song. When commencement week came we were called upon to prove all the love we had professed for our Seniors. Daisies covered the campus and hills around Shorter and the Sophomores must scramble from dawn till dark over the hills gathering them for the daisy chain. But our love stood the test and on class day we proudly bore the product of our handicraft in honor of our Seniors. Then evolution worked its mighty change and the Sophomores became Juniors. On Thanksgiving the Juniors entertained the college community at dinner and scored our greatest success in parties. The word Thanksgiving was spelled out in skits that gave a significant meaning to each letter. One of the greatest pleasures of the day was the presence of our Seniors, who had come back for a reunion and a glimpse of their grandchildren, the Freshmen. Our triumphs this year were many. The Volley ball cup was one trophy. And in December the High-Minded generation contended with the Whoop-Em-Ups in sales- manship at the Christmas Bazaar given by the Alumnae Association to raise funds for the swimming pool. It was a close contest, but the High-Mindeds won and were presented with a silver loving cup. In the Spring Montyne Shields brought honor to the Junior Class by winning the tennis cup. Kept busy with the selecting of rings, and spending every spare moment in search- ing for the crook which the Seniors had hidden with the express purpose of keeping us busily occupied, our Junior year passed quickly. It was almost unbelievable that the Class of ' 27 had become Seniors. The hope had 45 .1111â– 11111M. .............

But future had become present and we suddenly found ourselves with the responsibilities of Seniors. Terrifying! For there was always the possibility of the under classmen ' s finding out that all the dignity and nonchalance with which we wore our caps and gowns were only pretended. On Hallowe ' en the Seniors entertained with a party in the woods. There were spooks and fortune tellers, witches and black cats, and a ghost court before which the faculty were summoned for trial. A slow, drizzling rain added not a little to the weirdness of the occasion without spoiling the fun. After the party we all gathered in Senior Den to admire the beautiful lamp and table cover that our Sophomores had given us. It was just before Christmas that Dr. Furry told us of the plans that were being made for a campaign for Shorter to raise funds for a new building. This was very exciting news to us. We have all been dreaming of a greater Shorter. And now it seems that those dreams are nearing realization. This last year has been crowded with pleasures, hopes, plans. But our sojourn here in the clouds must come to an end. As we go out may we be true to the ideal that Shorter has given us—to seek ever for the fullest, the completest life! KATHERINE ADERHOLDT. Class Poem Twenty-Seven, can you believe That four full years have come to pass, Since first we entered Shorter ' s Halls And registered as the Freshman Class? Does it seem to you that time has flown To lift an hour out of now, Across this space too rapidly? Take fifteen minutes here or there, Would you like to snatch it back in part To make you smile when you are old To live some hours repeatedly, And there ' s silver in your hair? A party—a game—a meeting gone— A joke—a tear—a smile, Some photographs, a note perhaps, Is all we ' ll have in a while. The mist of time dims memories, • Twenty-Seven, it ' s hard to believe And even friendship ' s ties That the time to break is here. Are often lost in the space of days It ' s hard to realize that the end Where other interest lies. Of our High Minded days are near. But through the wear and tear of time, As the clouds make soft the heaven, Little memories will soften age And there ' ll be youth in Twenty-Seven. M.

Place: Shorter College, Rome, Georgia. Scene: College parlor in new Academic Building. (Lucille Williams and Mary Hardman enter) Lucille: There ' s no one in here either. I wonder where everybody is. Mary: Oh, I bet I know! What time is it? Lucille: About twenty minutes of eleven. Mary: It ' s chapel time! Of course we should have remembered. But five years Lucille: It ' s five years! (Looking around the room as if seeing it for the first! time). Isn ' t this room lovely, Mary? This is the first time I ' ve been back since the new building was completed. Mary: That ' s right! You didn ' t get to come back when our Sophomores uated, did you? Lucille: How could I, you goose? When I was on the other side of the world. We were in Naples the day they got their diplomas--Virginia and Lucile Beckham and Dot Brannen and I. Mary: That Virginia! How is she? Oh, I know she ' s Mrs. Walden now, but she ' ll always be Virginia Davis to me. Lucille: She and Spencer are just as happy as they can be. They ' ve just built the loveli est home in Albany—going to move in some time next month. I was in Albany about a week ago and saw Virginia. And guess who else I saw! Mary: One of the Camilla girls? Lucille: No! Althea De Loach! She ' s professor of Math at Albany High, and she ' s the basketball coach. She told me that her girls won the Southwest Georgia championship. Mary: Althea was a good basketball player—and a shark at Math, too. But tell me, why doesn ' t Lucile Beckham come home? Why, she ' s been abroad nearly five years now. Is she in love or something? Lucille: I hate to disillusion you, but she ' s not in love—seriously, I mean—and she most probably will he over there for the next five years. Mary: Why, what do you mean? Lucille: Do you remember how Buck used to hate to travel—even ride on a train? Well, I got a letter from her the other day—and, by the way, guess who she saw when she was in Athens last summer? Kitty Aderholdt and Lenore Ward! They ' re with some international archaeological society, or something—Buck doesn ' t know exactly what. 47 114141 piirtimpipmpimpipi Mary: I shouldn ' t either if you should tell me. But go on and tell me about Buck. Lucille: Oh, yes; Buck said in her letter that she was horribly homesick, but that she had had such a terrible trip going over that she simply did not have the courage to try the return trip. Mary: Poor Buck—stranded in Europe and can ' t get home. Had she seen one else? Lucille: You know she spent last fall in London. Well, she wrote me that she picked up the ' London Times ' and there on the front page of the society section was a picture of little Dot Brannen perched on this huge horse. Do you remember an article Dot wrote for the Chimes called ' An Amateur Horse Woman, ' I think? Well, underneath the picture was, ' Today Lady Dorothy Hosmer, accomplished horse woman, opens social season at her country home in Linconshire with big fat hunt ' —or thing to that effect. Mary: Did Dot really marry that old English lord ? It seems that I just dreamed it. Lucille: No, you didn ' t dream it. She met him about a month before we sailed, and he followed her to this country. Oh, he wasn ' t so horribly old—about forty-five, typical English and quite fond of her in his way. Dot was delightfully unconcerned about it all. Mary: You know, that ' s funny. Oh, it ' s so interesting to hear all of the news about dear ole ' 27. Now, who else was in that suite ?—Katharine Orr, and Jincy Hunt and Carolyn Wilford! Lu cille: Jincy ' s still teaching in Honolulu. You know, I ' m glad she got there. She talked about it the entire spring of her senior year. I don ' t know what ' s become of Carolyn. Mary: Why, she was written up in the 1931 ' Who ' s Who of Famous Young People. ' Oh, she ' s lecturing and writing articles for the Atlantic Monthly and doing all sorts of interesting things—on Religion, you know. Lucille: Carolyn is not the only one who rates the Atlantic Monthly. Katharine Orr is creating quite a stir in the literary world, and she had an article written about her in the Atlantic Monthly. Mary: Well, Texys Morris had one about her in the American—last month ' s issue. ' Atlanta ' s Youngest Successful Business Woman ' was the title. Lucille: I ' ll bet Tex is successful. (Going to window) Mary, they ' re coming from chapel. Oh, there ' s Margaret Haynes—I didn ' t know she was still up here in the Expression Department. How does our class whistle go? (Together they whistle.

I was just reading the ' alumnae notes ' in the Chimes, and there are so many members of ' 27 in them. Here ' s a Chimes. (She gives the book to Lucille). Mary: We were just talking about all of the girls were doing. Lucille: Oh, listen here (reading) Miss Laura Kersey, ' 27, is Dean of Women at ' The Oaks, ' Virginia, one of the few remaining exclusive boarding schools in the South. Miss Virginia Eubanks, ' 27, is a student at the Sarbonne, Paris, France. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Powell are now making their home in Chattanooga, Tenn. Mrs. Powell was formerly Miss Ruth Erwin, ' 27. ' `Miss Ruth Horton, ' 27, is a member of the faculty of Rome High School. ' Margaret: I s aw Ruth down town yesterday. But Mary, where is that Helen Hardman? Is she still in China? Mary: Yes and no. In the Orient—yes. think she ' s afraid to come home. Margaret: Afraid ? Why? Mary : Well, you see, she ' s promised two or three—er—real good friends an answer when she comes back and she can ' t decide which one she wants to marry. Lucille (Looking up from the Chimes): Why, I didn ' t know that Dot Morton was a physician! Listen—(she reads)—`Dr. D. Morton, ' 27, has just finished her internship at Tulane and accepts a position on the staff of physicians of the Grady Hospital, Atlanta, Ga. ' And listen at Elizabeth Mustin, ' 27, radio expert, announces the invention of a new mechanism which when attached to a radio will practically do away with static. She is hailed in a scientific world as a genius. ' And here ' s something about Ketch. How natural that Beth and Ketch should be together. `Miss Louise Ketchersid, ' 27, is a member of the faculty of Sanford High School, Sanford, Fla. ' `Miss Mildred McCord, ' 27, has opened a studio in Charlotte, North Carolina. She is Instructor of Expression and has a very large class. ' Mary: Margaret, what have you been doing with yourself ? Margaret: Well, nothing in particular. I went to New York Christmas. Mary: Really? Did you see Bessie Rogers? . Margaret: Yes, I did. I had dinner with her one night—Marion Moses and I. You knew that Mose was in Greenwich Village writing the most divine poetry. Lucille: But where is Ben? Margaret: He was in New York when I was there. I think in another year or two he ' ll persuade Mose to live in Knoxville instead of New York. But back to Bessie—I went around to her apartment one afternoon. It was perfectly lovely.

Oh, she knows the most interesting people. But listen, guess whom I saw on the stage in New York ? Lucille: You don ' t mean that a member of ' 27 is on the stage? Margaret: Yes, sir. Marian Harmon was with Charlotte ' s Review of 1932. Gave its premier performance New Year ' s night. She had a solo part—and she danced well, too—made quite a hit! Mary: Well, of all things, who would have thought we had a star in our class? Margaret: Not one, but two! Haven ' t you head about Skeet—Margaret Meadows? It ' s in this month ' s Thotoplay ' . Lucille: Thotoplay ' ? Not the movies? Margaret: Yes! When she was out West, Cecil B. de Mille saw her in a Los Angeles hotel and signed her up at once. Her first picture is to be released next month with Margaret playing the vamp role. Mary: Imagine Margaret as a vamp! Let me see that ' Chimes, ' Lucille. Lucille (Gives her the magazine) : Tell us some more news, Margaret. Margaret: That ' s all I know. Oh, I forgot. I came by Atlantic City on the way home and Elizabeth Owen and Claire Burke have the most adorable little room there— Tea-by-theSea, it ' s called, and it ' s fascinatingly exclusive. Of course, the season hadn ' t opened. Mary: Listen to this, Lucille—(she reads)—`Mr. and Mrs. James C. Beane are at home to their friends in Indianapolis, Indiana. Mrs. Beane was formerly Miss Elizabeth Beverly, ' 27. ' I didn ' t know she was married. Here ' s some more about ' 27. `Miss Omie Hart, ' 27, is a member of the faculty of Milledgeville High School, ledgeville, Georgia.

' `Miss Montyne Shields and Miss Frances Caperton, both members of the Class of ' 27, are students at Oberlin Conservatory of Music, Oberlin, Ohio ' . (Just then Mrs. Arthur Talmadge enters). Ethel (Seeing strangers in the room starts to close the door) : Oh, I beg your pardon— Lucille: Why, Ethel, aren ' t you going to speak to us? Ethel: Why, Lucille! Mary! I ' m so glad to see you. What are you two doing up here ? Mary: just at present, we are discussing Shorter celebrities—at least, members of ole ' 27. Ethel: Well, just look at this paper, then—its just full of news about Shorter girls. (She hands Lucille the paper).

Miss Carswell is one of Georgia ' s own daughters and made her debut only last Fall with the Metropolitan Opera Company, New York. ' I wish I could have gone to opera this year ! Mary: I, too! What was that about Sally Brown, Ethel? Ethel: Didn ' t you know? Sally is going to marry a noted explorer and they are going to spend their honeymoon in the African jungle.

Listen, Lucille, you and Mary, why don ' t you have lunch with Arthur and me? Lucille: Delighted, Ethel— Margaret (interrupting Lucille) : Why, here is Lonnie Joiner ' s engagement an- nounced! !

Joiner, of Camilla, announce the engagement of their daughter, Eleanor Bush, to Mr.— Lucille: I knew she would marry him. Ethel: Who? Let me see. (She takes the paper). I knew she would, too. Did Tad marry George ? Mary: Nearly a year ago! The two are singing and playing their way into Miami hearts, so the Miami society editor said of them. Ethel: Did you know that Margaret is resigning at the end of the year ? Mary : I wonder what for? Lucille has just resigned from her position in her father ' s bank for the same reason.

A. has tried this year to be of real help to the individual girl in broadening her horizon. There has been no set program to be slavishly followed, but the different activities have been planned so as to offer help for personal religious diffi- culties and to present world problems and inquire as to possible solutions in the light of the teachings of Jesus. We have tried to broaden our sympathies by coming to a better understanding of the peoples of different races and nations, looking forward to the tiin- when we shall no longer be divided by hate and prejudice but shall all be children of one Father, living Jesus ' law of love in all the relations of life. • The Alumnae Association of Shorter College OFFICERS MRS.

Alumnae Notes The annual business meeting of the Alumni Association, which will be held on the morning of June 7, will mark the thirtieth anni- versary of the reorganization of the Association, which took place in the parlors of Old Shorter in June, 1897, Mrs. Charles Woodruff (Lula Bruce, ' 87) being the first president. As early as 1879 in the history of our college there was, it is said, an alumnae association, but records have been lost, and we do not know how long it lasted. So much enthusiastic interest centers in the commencement plans for 1927 that the more optimistic alumnae firmly believe that something really great for the Alma Mater will be the result. Several classes will hold reunions, 1917, 1887, 1907, 1922, and a deep and tender interest will center about the return to her Alma Mater of Mrs. A. G. Chewning (Annie Estes, 1879), who will celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of her matriculation as a student of Shorter. A history of our Association would be a beautiful story of unselfish interest, of worth while achievement. The organization is now recog- nized by the college as a distinctive power in its life. More and more is its influence felt both at the Shorter on the Hill and in that great big Shorter College which lives in the hearts and lives of those who have known the advantages she gives, her graduates and former students. The aim of the Association at present is to wipe out the remaining debt of $6,000.00 on the swimming pool. With that achievement 40. recorded as past history, the Association will then look toward larger fields of service to the beloved Alma Mater.

To her, the symbols, peace and victory Were the sweetest she ' d ever seen. The name of the girl was Eunomia, And she took these colors for true, And now, upon old Shorter Hill She is loved and honored anew. So, here ' s to the Green of Eunomia, Our goddess, so loyal and true; We ' ll honor her and cherish her Till all of life is thru. The green does stand for victory, We ' ll win, whate ' er we do; The girls of Eunomia loyal will be, So, Eunomia, here ' s to you. Tune: DAVIDSON Eunomians, you are the best Society in the east or west. You ' ve got the stuff, girls, And that ' s enough, girls, We ' ll win in every test. Eunomians, you ' re next to none. We ' re marching on to victory, And we are happy, as for you we sing. Eunomians, we ' ll forever Strive to reach our goal Eunomians, may we never Our ideals withhold; Down with old hatreds, We ' ll down them everyone, We ' re for the honor of Eunomians. 31 GOING BACK Eunomian born, Eunomian bred, Ind when we die be Eunomian dead. Going back, going back, Going back to Eunomian Hall Going back, going back To the best old place of all. Going back, going back To hear that same old call, And Eunomians sing With the same old ring Down in old Eunomian Hall. Polymnian Songs = S A I LOVE THE NAME OF POLYMNIAN When Peter Pan Polymnia lost He laid his pipes aside, No heart had he for melody, He hung his head and cried. But ages later, one Spring morn, Upon old Shorter Hill, Within a hundred hearts he found Polymnia living still. Tie grasped his pipes in ecstacy And thrilled the woods again, And if you ' ll listen you can hear him Trill this sweet refrain: CHORUS I love the name of Polymnian, ' Tis the sweetest of music to me; I love the girls of Polymnian, They ' re the girls that the world loves to see. I love the past of Polymnian, Tho ' the best is the last with Polymnian, And the red, white and green of Polymnian Is a certain sign of Victory. POLYMNIAN BLUES Now if you want my heart to bust wide open Mention Polymnian Days. Just start me thinking of my friends at Shorter And their Polymnian Ways. When they sing my mammy tole me Something joyful just gets hold me. All the day I ' m singing Polymnian praises ringing See our girls all dressed up in the red, white and green. Say, folks, I long to see them winning—they ' ve got the pep; I like to -think about the fine old spirit That ' s made their rep. I want to sing My Mammy Tole Me In the same old way And make Eunomians change their Colors from green to grey. Yea, Bo, lets go back to Polymnian Hall I ' ve got Polymnian Blues. MY MAMMY My Mammy tole me Long time ago, Say, Chile, don ' t you join Any other club you know. You ' ll lose all your honor ' Crease all your woe What in the world will become of you Nobody knows. =I; • Sly Po • MUM liiiiiiIMMUIMiiiiiiiiiiiiliffiliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii IF• 4. - - -.... :•••;•:4E4D:•:••:•:••:•:•••;••:••••••••:•:•:•:•:•. .0.0.•.- 95 President VERA COCHRA VIRGINIA DAVIS Vice-President LUCILLE WILLIAMS Secretary MARY HARDMAN Treasurer 1111111111111111111111111111M111111111111111111111111111111111111101101HIME s ' $1, • s = • = • = = • a •: = • = a E = = a • = = $1.

That same term witnessed her death, after which the Study Group adopted the name, The Mary Calloway Study Group, as a memorial to its founder. Professor Arthur St. Clair Sloan, a former missionary to Mexico, is leader of the group, lecturing once each week and conducting a discussion period after each lecture. The study this year has been a comparative study of the great religions of the world, using as a basis The Faiths of Mankind by Edmund Davison Soper. The study has been very helpful in giving a better knowledge of the religions of other peoples and has led to the consideration of what things Christianity has to give these peoples and what contributions they, in turn, may make to us. = • ' ' ' • ,111 = • momimmtin - Social Clubs Kid Club Founded ' 9°8 Colors: Pink and Baby Blue Power: Forget-Me-Not Motto: Put up your hair and wear long dresses.

My dear Miss Moses: Thank you for the lege and-pleasure you gave me in judging the photographs of the young ladies of Shorter College, which, of course was ' photographically ' as I have no moans of knowing the color of their eyes or hair, which means so muca in Judging ' from life ' . I trust I have not hurt feelings of any of the participants in so doing.

Treasurer _• = _• 111111111111111111 coei • The present athletic year has been filled with enthusiasm and interest from the very first. It began as usual with the volley ball games, but there was nothing ordinary about the exciting and heated contests waged between the rival class teams. But when all the athletes turned them- selves into movie stars and gave a party in the gym—the true spirit had arrived so far as Shorter was concerned. Next the swimming pool was the scene of another struggle between the friendly foes and the fact that it was hard to decide whether the object was to see who could yell loudest or swim fastest made it none the less exciting. However, basketball season has at last arrived and once again from the gym comes the referee ' s whistle and shouts from players as each team gets into shape to win the cup. The next event scheduled is something new at Shorter—namely baseball, and everyone is looking forward to it with a great deal of interest as well as to the coming track meet, which will be the second such happening in annals of Shorter Athletic Association. Last comes the singles and doubles tennis tournaments which will be, it is hoped, a fitting climax to the suc- cessful year of uH 24)4. 3 19=v,, top_ Athletic News 138 = • = • = = • ES: • _• _• _• =s = = • = _• = • =• = • = •:•:•:•:•-•_•7•741•7•7•7••:•:• ' •:•:•:•-•:•:•: 1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 A 011111 111111111 R • = P.
