LUPINE LEAFLET 39 The Expression Department Ruby Lovett The history of the Expression class of '22-23 ended with a big success on the night when the three graduating students Ethel Orrell, Flora Lea Appleby, and Ruby Lovett appeared in the Exhibition. lt was laughingly funny as well as gloriously en- chanting, and nobody ever found out what became of the dog. Well what else did the Expression class do? They made a big hit every time they appeared, thanks to Miss Bernice Hardy Duggan. And everybody sat up and took notice when a reading was announced because something unusual always hap- pened. All of the pupils made marked progress during the year. The Pierrettes are not going to end their club with the closing year, but have made provision for it to start work right away next September, The officers have been elected as follows: ' President-Miss Winnie Carl. Secretary-Miss Levert Shotts. Treasurer-Miss Maurine Scott. Vice-President-Miss Bernadyne Stokes. Business Manager--Miss Imogene Wiley. They could not disband without having a little fun, and so they had a party and went to the Royal after dinner at the Original. They also made a lasting donation to Westmoorland in the form of a book case containing books which will be of value to the Expression department hereafter. ill? Piano Department Irene Chase The annual Children's Recital was held in the College Auditorium on the even- ing of May 14. As is the custom, the general Students' Recital was held on May 21. The closing recital of the year, the Grand Final Concert, took place on May 31. All participants proved their ability to meet the demands made upon them, and the three evenings were occasions of perfect enjoyment. On the evening of April 30, a most delightful recital was held in the College Auditorium. The artists, Miss Mildred Elgin, pianist, and Mrs. Rubie Perryman Hardin, Soprano, were most enthusiastically received by the appreciative audience. The even- ing was a decided success from start to finish. The program follows: Suite in D Minor .........................................,.............,,.,,,..,,,,.,,.....,,..,,,,.,.

LUPINE LEAFLET 4I Activities of the Glee Club U U IJ The Glee Club of Westmoorland College has recently given three sacred concerts. The first was presentednat Travis Park Metrodist-Church. Nancy Ellen Rice proved in efficient pianist in her playing of Chopin's Berceuse as the assisting soloist. Other solo numbers were given by Margaret Wilson and Kathleen Hester, Sopranos. Similar programs were given at the College and at McKinley Avenue Church on Sundays, April 29, and May 6, respectively. The club is to assist the music and ex- pression departments in the concluding recitals given in the school auditorium May 21, The Other Side El EI El Janie Sample Our faculty-some folk may think of solely in their shops, but there is another side-I know. Each one has a hobby. It is not golf either. Listen, l'll tell you. The other day I tapped on Miss Allen's door, wanting to speak with her a mo- ment. No one answered my knock, but I could hear someone laughing and talking. Finally, Miss Allen said, come . I went in, and what should I find? There was Miss Allen, Miss Joiner, Miss Barbe, and Miss Marsh playing Rook , with Miss Repass look- ing on. I had to swallow hard, because I couldn't imagine them amusing themselves in that way. K And what could be more unexpected than to hear of Miss Luker enjoying a melodrama once a week and sometimes oftener? She speaks of Douglass Fairbanks as her movie ideal, and she is the English Instructor, and abhors happy endings in class. Goodness! One Saturday evening I passed by the cooking room, and saw 'Miss Middleton making divinity balls with two Seniors. I had an idea that teachers didn't like to get their hands all sticky. j Even Miss Henderson and Miss Elgin can enjoy window shopping. Every Monday they are in town-they seem to be fond of walking and talking-with love-light in their eyes. Q Miss Mainard has almost started a hot-house in the laboratory. One can always find her watering the flowers, and all the while she is smiling at them as if they were telling her something. I have heard of people pulling petals off of flowers and saying, He loves me, he loves me not. ' One may wonder where Miss Ragsdale is several nights out of the week-well, I don't know, but a young fellow passes the study hall windows quite often. On passing through third floor hall -you sometimes smell the odor of tea. If you are very curious, you might stick your head in the door of Miss Runkle's room and find her serving tea to Miss McReynolds and the Misses Loden. The other night Mrs. Ray and Mrs. Hardin started to a concert+Mrs. Ray driv- ing Mrs. Hardin's car--Did they ever get there? In the still of the evening one can hear low tones-of course, they are the voices of Miss Campbell and Mr. Roy. If a wise old owl should be in a nearby tree, per- haps he could tell us more. 5 ' Mrs. Hill is such a busy little woman that we often wonder when she finds time for anythingg but when sheigets 'tfussed up with a new string of beads to match a pretty gown, we know she is ready for a dinner engagement. But most amazing of all, one would scarcely recognize our dignified president, Dr. Hill, enjoying a lively romp with' his dogs. He does not get behind closed doors to play with Lady eitherj He calls her little girl, and hops about as lively as the bird dog puppies themselves. and May 3 0.
