Members of the A. AY. C. A. all over the
South have been waiting: breathlessly for
some word about the summer conference. At
last the call to King’s Mountain comes and
every person who has heard of the majesty
and the magic of the place feels a new thrill.
The call states that the conference is planned
to increase the awareness of individuals re
garding their relations to society and to en
able such individuals to find their proper
adjustment to each other in the larger group
life. Spelman “Y”, like all the others, is
beginning to think in terms of the call.
Among interesting features of the spring
schedule for the “Y” is the tour of a Chinese
student of Wesleyan College, Macon, Geor
gia, Miss Tsoo Cji Zio, who will visit Asso
ciations in Georgia, Alabama and Mississip
pi. Spelman “Y” is bringing Miss Zio to
our campus March 24 or 25. All interested
persons are invited to meet her in group
meetings during the day of her visit. The
members of the Y. AY. C. A. will enjoy an
informal meeting with her before her de
parture. Watch the bulletin board for more
definite announcements.
Luck—How we do actually stumble on sur
prisingly good luck! AN bile chatting with
Mrs. Philip Davis Thursday, March 2, and
while discussing problems in general, she
suggested that we bring to our group Miss
Mae Hawes who has been a A . W. C. A.
worker and is now working in the field of
Adult Education in Atlanta. AVe wanted her
but had no hopes of getting her upon so
short a notice. Through the influence of
Airs. Davis, Miss Hawes was with us Sunday,
March 5, in an informal gathering in More
house North reception room. She presented
some aspects of personality. One can not
review the strength of the talk nor repro
duct* the effect felt, but can only recall some
of the high points.
Miss Hawes said that personality is the
most adequate adjustment to the universal
community. Personality has two aspects:
the biological and the psychological. To the
psychological belong certain wishes slit* gave
the four primary wishes: the wish for
power, for security, for personal response
and for new experiences. These wishes gov
ern the way in which personalities become
effective.
Further in her discussion Miss Hawes
touched on the individual the impossibility
of an individual's being an isolated tigure in
society. This thought was developed under
the sociological aspect and the cultural as
pect—the latter she promises to take up in
a later discussion.
The final point was on finding the mean
ings in life—whatever we hear, see, do—
we should go beneath and find the meaning
of it. The “Parable of Nature” which she
read in conclusion was in popular demand
after the meeting—in connection with a de
mand for ALss Hawes’ earliest possible re
turn.
Saturday, March lltli, time turned back
ward in its flight—all were children again,
just for that night. All of the silly things
that were feared as childish were brought
out again and we were each one the child
we used to be. The “Kid Party” was given
in the Spelman gymnasium, Giles Hall, at
7:30 o’clock.
