The Bio W. M. S. celebrated the
twenty-sixth anniversary of its or
ganization at Bio church Thursday
afternoon, September 17th. In con
nection with this the week of prayer
was observed by a special program
on State Missions by the W. M. S.
and its auxiliaries. A unique feature
of the program was the spool of
thread shower given by the Sun
beams to Dr. Ayers’ hospital in China.
A large crowd attended from both
the home church and neighboring
churches. Special mention should be
made of the presence of Mrs. T. G.
McCurry and Mrs. Mollie Dunean.
Mrs. McCjjrry served the W. M. S.
as president for seventeen years, and j
is now honorary president for life. I
Mrs. Duncan has never missed a
meeting of the society since its or- ’
ganization twenty-six years ago.
After the program the ladies were ■
invited into the grove where the
birthday cake was cut and delicious
refreshments were served.

Macon, Ga.—There always comes
into one’s heart a tinge of sadness
as you gracefully looked over your
home town for the last time and
stepped aboard a train or car with
college as your destination. With
the future before you there is at
least one consoling thought and that
is, that you will always look forward
to the homecoming as a matter of
greatly anticipated pleasure.
Leaving home last week it was
our pleasure to go by Atlanta—the
great Atlanta—where one night was
spent v . after seeing the Atlanta
Crackers defeat Birmingham to
clinch the Southern League penant.
After the one-day sojourn in Atlan
ta we went to Macon and when at
last our destination was reached we
had partly begun to realize that home
and friends—true ones, we hope,—
had been left behind and new sur
roundings and the hope of meeting
new people would be our only con
solation for the next few weeks.
» * »
“There’s No Place Like Home.”
Some great philosopher of old has
said that we never know the real
value of our possessions until we are
separated from them.
The same is true in every phase
of life—we never know how dear to
us are our friends, our home, our
family, until we have departed from
them. Home—no matter how hum
ble—can never be replaced in the
hearts of its former occupants. Al
though we meet new people and be
come a part of their daily being
there is never blotted out of one’s
mind a desire for home and friends—
to meet and be with them once more.
♦ • ♦
Macon—a Fine Town.
Macon—Georgia’s central city and
one of the finest cities in the state —
is a wonderful place and becomes
dearer to me as the days go by. Its
people are hospitable and have the
appearance of trying to do any and
everything in their power for these
students from the southland—girls
at Wesleyan, boys at Mercer—who
are within the gates' of their glori
ous city.
The girls in Macon are of the high
ly refined type and hold dear to
themselves their self-pride and self
conservativeness. However, at dates
with Mercer students, there is no
limit as to the hour one must leave
the home of his—well, “date.”
Twelve o’clock is considered early;
the wee hours of the morning ap
proach slyly to find many a Mercer
“stude” on his way towards his
room.
♦ » ♦
He Only Wanted To Know.
In speaking of girls and “dates”
reminds me of a story going its
rounds on the Mercer campus—and
on one of the Hartwell boys, too, —
but I won’t tell his name. It seems
that this particular boy “fell” for one
of the Macon girls and went out reg
ularly to see her. As days, and
nights, tvent by the fellow stayed
later and later.
Once, in the tiny hours of the
morning, the girl’s father came out
and inquired, “Has the morning pa
per come yet?”—-and they picked
the poor fellow up and carried him
home.

them until they take on the appear

of pure gelatine. The eyes of the
shark, after they are boiled, lose their
outer covering, and the residue be

shifting light in its texture. These
shark eyes are then mounted on pins
