The Campus Mirror 3 Glee Club Concert The first activity in connection with the Founders Day celebration was the Glee Club concert given Monday night, April 10th. The masterly rendition of selections by this well-trained chorus of J7 voices was the source of real harmony and enjoyment. Selections by tbe quartet, Annve Mells, Mabel Hillman, Mary Louise Smith and Mercedes Powell were excellent composi tions that were no less finely interpreted. Professor Ilarreld and Mrs. Maise were directors of the concert and Miss Ruth Wheeler was accompanist. PROGRAM I. “Gome Fnto These Yellow Sands" Purcell An Irish Folk Song .

Persian Serenade Matthews “Cupid Made Love to the Moon" Smith XL Spiritual “Great Day’’ Soliloquy of the Fountain (Continued from Page 1) is surely an asset. Well, it is getting late. After a day of worry, I had better get some sleep. It is not good to worry one’s self gray at the age of seven. When one has many years to live it is best to be economical in the worrying business." Several days after this soliloquy the foun tain was awakened from her sleep by one of the trees nearby saying, “Say, that surely L a pretty dress you have on." “Gee, but vou are looking fine!” sounded another voice. "You'll be looking fine for Founder's Day," called the little water bets-li. The fountain stood like a blushing bride in her new fresh coat, while her woodsy compan ions showered her with compliments. After their greetings had died away, the fountain said to one of the trees, "1 wonder if my Fairy Godmother has been here." “Why, no. I saw a man washing you and giving you a fresh coat of paint while you were asleep. Do you believe in Fairy God mothers?” “No, I don’t,” said the fountain, after thinking awhile. "I don’t suppose I could sit in the very center of the campus of an institution of learning and believe in such mystical characters. But blessings come to us so unsuspectedly when we are not even aware of their visitation. It makes one feel as though it were the work of some of the characters who are always doing good in the fairy world. Fairies may lie the name- given to the spirit in people that makes them gracious and kind to people in need. I am so happy. The pigeons and my other friends will be so glad to see me all cleaned up! I do not know who to thank. I shall thank everybody by continuing to do my best service. “It is a little hard to keep from looking down on passersby without feeling a con descending air—being all dressed up as I am. There seem to be three bad attitudes which spring up in men on account of their sudden enrichment. The first is that of the benevolent despot who gives to society and then dominates its personality. There is also the attitude of the modern capitalist—‘I got mine. If you have not got yours, it is your fault; and I am going to keep on get ting mine at the expense of everybody con cerned.’ The other attitude is that there have always been needy people, there always will be; so there is no need to worry. The world is pretty well fed up on these three types of attitude,” said the fountain. “1 shall certainly have to watch myself." Professor of Wellesley College A Visitor Miss Elizabeth Manwaring, Professor of English at Wellesley College, spent a few days on the campus as the guest of Miss Norwood. In a chapel talk on Friday, April 7, Miss Manwaring gave us her appreciation of Robert Frost, the poet. In exchange for the campus singing which she considered one of the finest treats the South offered her, she brought Frost to us as one of the best things that New England offers. Favorite poems of Frost including “Something There Is That Doesn’t Love a Wall," “The Pas ture” and "The Onset” were read by Miss Manwaring. While here, Miss Manwaring honored mem bers of the Fortnightly Club by giving a special lecture on how to write poetrv. + ——t DR. A. L. KELSEY Dentist ' Rrs. 850 Simpson St..

The Community Council was formed at the beginning of the school year and is composed of sixteen mem bers representing both students and faculty. Eight persons became members by virtue of the offices they are holding in representa tive campus organizations; eight other mem bers were chosen at large. Exofficio mem bers are, Frankie Butler, President of the Senior Class; Birdie Scott, Vice-President of the Senior Class; Curtis Miller, President of the Y. W. C. A.; Mamie Bynes, Editor-in- Chief of The Campus Mirror; Lottie Lyons, President of the Junior Class; Marguerite Simon, President of Sophomore Class; An nie Motley, President of Freshman Class. At present the general trend in colleges and universities is toward community gov ernment. rather than faculty or student gov ernment. This opens the way for a fine spirit of co-operation through discussing matters in an advisory rather than in a dis ciplinary manner. In our group we have achieved some re sults which show that our efforts have been fruitful. First of all in our religious pro gram, a new plan has been worked out for the Y. W. C. A. meetings. The new arrange ment provides for semi-monthly meetings of this organization, instead of the weekly meetings which were originally held and which all students attended. On alternate Sundays services are held in the dormitories of the respective classes. Fp to the present time, this arrangement has worked well. Through the Council, hall organizations have been effected. These groups function in the handling of problems peculiar to themselves alone. The matters of library and dining room ethics and etiquette, es pecially, have been referred directly to them and handled well. There has also been defi nite organization among the day students which aids in keeping them in league with the program of the campus. The question of continued membership in the National Student Federation of Amer ica has been discussed, and the decision was reached that, owing to the lark of direct contact with the Federation, renewal of mem bership at present was not advisable. The Council stands as a vigilant and open- minded group, ready to suggest and take suggestions and consider plans leading to the good of all. rWEST"END AMERICAN T Shoe Shop I 835 Gordon Street, SAV.
