NEWS 7 ANNOUNCEMENTS 7 ATHLETICS AND SPORTS _ 8 EDITORIAL Beginning in this issue of the Campus Mirror, we are devoting a portion of a page to what will l>e known as the “What? When? Why?” column edited by girls in the Home Economics department. The purpose of this column is to give a larger number of girls the benefit of many of the fundamental principles of everyday etiquette which we so often fail to observe. Each succeeding issue will deal with a spe cific phase of these good manners. From time to time if any questions arise in your mind concerning certain forms of proper conduct, we shall be glad to answer them through this column. German Novelist Lectures Dr. Leon Eeuchtwanger, noted German novelist, lectured to a full audience of stu dents and faculty of the three institutions on the subject, “Are we modern barbarians?” The recipe he gave for avoiding the bar barous state was to abstain from militaristic thinking and to cultivate fairness—a term which he defined as to give more than one is obliged and to take less than one’s rights. Dr. Feuchtwanger is author of Josephus, one of the books selected by the Book-of-the Month Guild for October. Success, Power, and The Ugly Duchess, are other books of his. The lecture given at Spelman was the third public speech made in America by Dr. Feu chtwanger. Thanksgiving Program and Rally The Thanksgiving program was held on Thanksgiving morning at 9:00 o’clock in Sisters Chapel, with President Read presid ing. Immediately after the program, the an nual rally was brought to a successful close in Howe Memorial Hall. It was conducted after the fashion of an enthusiastic automo bile race among the four college classes, each having a “brand new”, first class automobile, secured especially for the race. These at tractive cars were driven by the four rally ing presidents. Their classmates and efforts in class activities furnished the financial gas for the race. Some of these special efforts were a radio broadcast program by the Freshman class, presentation of the Spelman Faculty in a recital by the Sophomore class, and a “Circus” by the Senior class. Every dollar raised for the rally counted two miles of the race. Mrs. Borders devised and di rected the races. The following is the financial report of the classes, faculty and staff and gifts from other sources: Senior-Lincoln $ 23.33 Juniorsyler 15.30 Sophomobile 16.05 Freshmanadillac 11.35 Faculty and Staff 237.50 Sunday School 6.62 Gift from Miss Timson 5.00 Total $315.15
