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

In our first snow fall, every scene on the campus took on a new and fairy-like appearance. Even the familiar way to the Hut was transformed into a snow palace roofed with lacy branches. Page 28
