STUDENTS THINKING.
The idea of Freshman Week was
quite uniquely carried out, if one
may judge from the oral and writ
ten reports made by the various
freshmen. It is believed that they
were given an insight into the true
Spelman spirit as well as an initia
tion into the joys and sorrows of
college life.
Their individual ideals of the
“Fresman Girl v are already being
realized, and their wonderful
dreams of college life are beginning
to come true.
* * * *
Are all classes organized? The
freshmen are!
“Three cheers for the freshmen!”
* * * *
Our “Extra Curricular Activi
ties” are organizing again. Press
Club, Literary Club, Y. W. C. A.
and Glee Club. All take a solemn
vow to make this year the best yet
iri their respective histories!
We are delighted to see our new
chapel nearing completion and are
eagerly waiting untiFthe day when
we may assemble within its walls.
The new fountain also is almost
completed. This is a source of joy
to all because we are' now drinking
cold water to our heart’s content.
* * * *
What is soccer? Ask even a
freshman and I daresay she will
give you a correct explanation of
the game. At present, it is the
game of the season; full of life,
fun and pep. Let’s go in for sports
as never before, take our share, and
drink deeply of the benefits.

What's the matter with Spel
man? She’s all right! Advancing
a step further than last year, she
takes second prize at the South
eastern Fair. Let’s try to reach the
troal next vear; it takes only one
step more.
* * * * *
Do we know our new faculty
members ? We have had several
chances to know them. If not in
their respective classes, we may
have become acuainted with them
at socials. See this number of the
“Campus Mirror” for a written in
troduction to them.

Opening Day at Spelman for
1926-27 was one of the most beau
tiful ever witnessed. The spirit
and atmosphere of the devotional
services were uplifting, and cul
tural in every respect.
