Your little friend, RENDER TERRELL I,ESTER. We are ghid to report that Mi<s Hilda Perry, who was seriously ill at one time, and has been taken hopie, is mucli bettor, und improving each day. Misses Aduins, Alexander nnd Hunt were tho guests of Mrs. V. R. O’Neal recently. Mrs. LeRoy Thompson and little son, LeRoy, Jr., of Oklahoma, were the guests of Mrs. Thompson’s sister, Miss Ethel McMui-riun, last, week. Miss Mattie Adams was called home Monday by the death of her father. She went with the heartfelt sympathy of tho students and faculty, who hope for her return after the holidays. Miss llertio Hall was tho guest of Mrs. Lottie Spikes in town Monday. Miss Minnie Harper’spent the week end with relatives in Gabbettville. • The Christmas cantata, "The Christ Child,” given at. the Baptist church Tuesday evening showed careful drill und long and conscientious prepara tion, and was thoroughly enjoyed Wy those prerent. The’ attendance might well have been larger,'and tho,so who stayed away do not realize what they lost by so doing. The music was j beautiful, and well fitted to the niean- , mg of the words. Some of tho soloists j were unable to take part, but the oth ers rendered those solos in- addition I to their own, and deserve great praise ! for doing bo, and doing it well on | Kueh short notice. The choruses were j very good, ar.d the voices blended well—the tenor voices especially in one part. But of course only the sing ers realize nil tho difficulties that were overcome, and all that was ac complished. I One of the most interesting events of last week was the “Cotton Recital.’’ The decorations were of cotton stalks, leaves nnd bolls. Thu young ladies who took part Wore dresses of delicato shades, pink and green nnd white cotton goods, trimmed with cotton bolls. This, the college's midwinter recital, was well attended and much enjoyed by those present. After tho recital, a social time was indulged in and then the Art Exhibit came in for its share of attention. Studies in oil nnd water colors nnd sketches were displayed on tho walls. The work in still-life in sketching and in drawing from a model, was especially good. Work was exhibited also from a epee ial course known to the initiated as Matrimonial art, since it results i pictures well calculated to adorn one’s future homo. This course is said to be verv successful, in both immediate and ultimate results. The art de partment offers a prize annually for | outside work done during the summer vacation—this to encourage indepen- i dent effort. The prize 1 , a gold pin, was awarded to Miss ITei-berta Herring. The program of the recital follows 1 . Vocal—The Woodpecker, Glee Club. Violin—Largo (Aria), Miss Lucy Adams. Piano—Prelude, (Chopin), Miss Ethel Brawner, Trio—Songs My Mother Taught Me, Misses Darden, Vaughan, Steph- Vocal—Goodnight, Beloved, Glee Gil*. Students and faculty are all thrilled with the thought of Christmas, and excited over is near approach. The following letters to Santa Clause were' found in the college post office: Dear Santa Klaws: Won’t you kom to see me, kaws I iuve you. Please bring mo a doll, and please I want some kandy and nuts and nil good things, if you have onuf. I want a little red wagin. Wif lots of Iuve, IRMA GRIFFITH. P. S.—Please bring mother and daddy something nice. Dear Santa: I am well, arn you? Please bring mo a dolly and boric candy und don’t forget niy little sister, a ring and a doll.
