THE CAMPUS MIRROR
Death of Dr. A. D. Jones
(Continued from Page 1)
years he had been in charge of the Health De
partment of Morehouse College. He was a lover
of clean sports and showed the constructive in
terest of the physician by finding time to write
newspaper articles on sports; he served as
Sport Kditor for “The Independent.”
Besides being continuously active in the work
of Friendship Baptist Church and Sunday
School, he was identified with numerous fra
ternal organizations. He also managed to help
further many phases of community life in At
lanta which affected the welfare of Negroes.
Classes were adjourned during the hour of the
funeral, held Dec. 4 at Friendship Baptist
church, and representatives of different student
groups and of the faculty attended.
The Carmina Circle
On November 23 there was born the most
beautiful and lovely little baby. My! How
bright were its little eyes. How promising were
its radiant smiles! Only a few girls have seen
it. But to know the infant is to love it. So
soon it is beginning to notice the setting sun
as it paints its reddened hue across the western
skies at evening. It notices the birds, the flow
ers, the autumn leaves. It delights greatly in
music. It reacts very cordially to everything
that is beautiful; it loves beauty and truth.
It is the Carmina Circle—The new poetry
club.
Latin Club Organized
November 7, all the college Latin students
gathered in the Latin Room in Tapley Hall
and organized the Spelman Latin Club with
the following officers: President, Pauline Nel
son; vice-president, Irene Dobbs; secretary-
treasurer, Frances Callier; reporter, Magnolia
Dixon.
The interesting possibilities of this club are
indicated by their first program, given Dec. 5.
Pauline Nelson read the twenty-third Psalm in
Latin. When the members responded to roll-
call with a Latin quotation, Miss Rose, teacher
of Latin in the high school, who was honor
guest, responded readily with her quotation. Pro
fessor Laura Dickinson told interesting things
about early Rome, followed by Bernice Star
ling with information about earliest Rome
that made Livy students come to perfect
attention. Views of Rome, gathered by the
Dickinson sisters during their recent studies at
the University of Rome, showed the dormitory
they lived in, views from their windows, pro
fessors and classes at the university, the Forum
and other views. An effective close of this
program was a playlet in which Caesar’s ghost,
Gussie Merlalla, persuaded a sleepy Latin stu
dent, Cassandra Maxwell, of the importance of
preparing each lesson thoroughly. The hour was
late and Tapley hall was dark; so the club
members scampered down and away lest some
modern ghost of Muzzy or Gates arise to pre
vent their escape.
