Notice to Subscribers Plans are being made to combine our commencement number of The Campus Mir ror with the May number which is usually the last to be given subscribers. Instead of coming off the press May 15th, the special May-June issue will be held until most of the commencement activities are over, giving ns time to include these write ups. Our tentative date set for releasing this last number is Monday, June 5th. It will go to subscribers without extra cost. We hope that the many elaborate features which are now being planned for this paper will work out. One of these is a special outside cover in color which we have not had. Even in these extremely difficult times we venture to take this step involv ing much expense. We are asking you, as subscribers, to cooperate with us to make this an especial ly fine piece of work. Submission of ap propriate articles for publication will be a p|rreci a ted. Edi t or. The life of every man is a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another; and his humblest hour is when he compares the volume as it is with what he vowed to make it. James M. Barrie Sunrise Service Easter Morning The College Sunday School sponsored a sunrise Easter service April 16th, at the front of Sisters Chapel. The services be gan quietly with the reading of the Biblical story of the crucifixion by Curtis Miller. Mabel Hillman led the spiritual “Were Jou There?” which was followed with pray er by Alpha Talley. Mary Louise Smith sang “Calvary” in which she made an impressive interpretation. The Bible storv was continued with the reading of the story of the resurrection. The spiritual “He Arose” held the true spirit of resurrection as all lifted their eyes toward the sun which was now shining brightly, suggesting victory over death. Mrs. Reddick closed the services with an inspirational prayer of thankful ness and praise to God. 7 he Dawn of Hope Florrie F.

I he Success of A Woman's College Spelman College has just passed her 5-hid birthday, marking two more years of suc cessful existence since the celebration of the Golden Jubilee in April, 11)31, when the memory of the noble achievement throughout these years was honored. Forty- four years as a seminary for the higher training of young Negro women, with the granting of degrees as a result of work done in Morehouse College since 1901, and eight years as a college represent a sig nificant span worthy of mention; for, al though outstanding as a college of any sort, Spelman is unique as a woman’s col lege. The things which have made Spelman College a success are the things which we do not see. Recently in the Magazine Section of the New York Times, six presidents of out standing colleges for women in expressing their opinions about the duty of a woman in a woman’s college as distinguished from that of her co-educational sister, gave the advantages of separate colleges for women as they saw them. Presidents of co-edu cational institutions also gave their reasons concerning the advantages of a mixed stu dent group in colleges and universities. The author of the article says that from observation, she finds that, though by con scientious application the co-ed girl man ages to acquire higher grades in the class room than her brother, she is apt to lack the intellectual ardor of the girl in the woman’s college. “Just now it is nec essary for the development of women that they be made to feel responsible and im portant. No girl in a woman’s college can fail to see that she is expected to take responsibility,” said President Park of Bryn Mawr. President Woolley of Mt. Hol yoke says, “The main object of women’s ed.-.cation, as I see it, is to develop th; powers of the individual to the utmost. The separate college, I think, accomplishes this better in that women have more chance for initiative than in the co-educational institution—that is, they usually lead with out being aggressive.” “Women’s life in the co-ed college lacks the vigor and ini tiative of life in the separate college. There are curious reactions,” says President Mc Cracken of Yassar. President Comstock of Radcliffe finds that, “Ordinarily, the women in a co-educational institution are not drawn together so closely and have not quite the same sense of comradeship with one another and of membership in the institution as in the separate college.” And last, President Nielson of Smith Col lege says, “Intellectual interests also have more chance when the distractions caused by the presence of the other sex are con fined to week-ends.” Spelman College measures up to these expectations of a separate college.
