President of the Club, served as commentator for the style show which was a feature of the program. To climax the show, a small spaniel dog led Dotty Jackson out on the stage. Once there he pro- ceeded to devour a bowl of bread and milk while the club members gave a lusty rendition (accent on rend) of Drink, Puppy Drink . Tonight we went down to the Hut, where the Georgia girls sponsored the Christmas tree for the servants. Dan played his harmonica for us, and Buster danced. All the servants sang negro spirit- uals for us, and it was lots of fun. » 1 Friday, December 15. Dear Diary: Last night just before the Christmas dinner the Vested Choir and the Chorus gave the Candle-light service. Most of the singing was antiphonal with the choir standing in the Pink Parlor and the chorus behind stage. The chapel was dimly lighted with candles, and the old Christmas carols in such a set- ting really brought a lump to my throat. After the formal Christmas dinner last night, ev- eryone rushed upstairs to attend the last-m inute de- tails of packing and saying goodbye. Most of the Seniors went to bed to get some sleep before the long train rides home, but some of the Juniors stayed up all night playing and making Christmas plans. Tonight I am writing this on the train, so if you ' re having trouble with my handwriting. Diary, that is why it is poor. You know, as excited as 1 was to be going home, there ' s something about this that re- minds me of Commencement. 1 am not the only Senior who feels it, however. You can easily tell the Seniors from the Juniors — they are so much quiet- er. Oh well, there ' s a long time ' til Commencement, and Christmas is going to be such fun! Goodnight, Diary, and Merry Christmas! » « Page 26

The underprivileged children, laden with gifts, left for home. Paramount (our official concert hall) to hear Lotte Lehmann and Lauritz Melchior in joint concert. As they are both well-known Metropolitan Opera stars, it was quite an event to hear them. Last night the Villagers ' Club sponsored the Christmas dance in the gym, and it was without a doubt the best dance so far. Soft lights and the sweet music of Jimmy Livingston ' s orchestra made it a wonderful party. I was dead tired in the after- noon after shopping for our Santa pal all day, but as soon as 1 heard that music I felt quite lively. Tonight we all went to the Paramount to hear Handel ' s Messiah , which is given each year at Christmas time under the direction of Mr. Miller. Though the chorus is made up of people from Bristol, Kingsport, and Johnson City, any Sullins girls who wish to sing in the Messiah may do so, and the entire chorus usually does so. This year two Sul- lins girls — Elizabeth Farquhar and Adelaide Lawler — were soloists. Mrs. Tula Whorton Kinser and mem- bers of the Sullins Orchestra played in the orchestra that accompanied the soloists and chorus. The whole oratorio was beautiful and went off quite smoothly. Wednesday, December 13. Dear Diary: What with all the dieting damsels around here I ' m a nervous wreck. It ' s hard enough to be dieting myself, but when everyone else is, too, it ' s awful! Up on fourth floor of Senior Wing there is a regular class every night, and when I walk into the Hut, Evelyn Ann and Nancy are usually there looking so hungry that it breaks my heart. However, any- thing to be lovely for Christmas. Monday night we had the Christmas tree for the poor children, and I think we enjoyed it every bit as much as the children. Some of the smaller girls could really play with their children . Dotty Jack- son could have dated her little boy, and Obie Mc- Kenzie and Mary Little really had to look up to some of the children. The Millers brought little Jan up to see Santa Claus, and after she had seen him, they had trouble getting her away. Miss Jan wanted to stay and play. After the children had finally gone, the front hall looked as though a tornado had blown through, but it was worth the trouble. Everyone had fun. Tuesday night the Sullins Orchestra under the direction of Mrs. Kinser gave a recital. The orchestra program was lovely. In addition to the music of the orchestra, Kay Litton played a piano solo, and the Vested Choir sang a medley of Christmas carols. Today in chapel the Hoofprints Club put on a program. The stage was very appropriately decor- ated with saddles and other riding equipment, and the program was very informal. Ann Davis, as The gifts at the Christmas tree made many children happy.
