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:
