In fact it looks almost f it wire a miniature model of a cast in plaster of Paris, any call Cadiz “the Ven»?e of hut this is a poor descrip- of it as there is almost no re- rr bln nee between the two cities, •ept that both arc almost surround ed by water. Cadiz is the oldest city western Europe. In fact it traces ■s history away back to eleven uries B. C., when the Phoenicians rame here and made it a base of ,p rations. Solomon imported prec- jous wares from Cadiz, and history relates that among these rarities there ere monkeys and big apes, which ■ere brought across from Africa, As early as four centurcs B. rientific men from far-off Asia nme to Cadiz to make a study of the ides, which are peculiarly high in the Gulf of Cadiz. The peoples living round the Mediterranean—which ias then the only “known world”— knew little or nothing about tides, as he Mediterranean is too small to make tidal action noticeable. They ■ater rose and fell mysteriously had heard that on some distant seas :e each day, and that these sudden s occurred later and later as the •s went on. These accounts were leraHy dismissed as travelers’ tales I classed with such stories as those *r told by Sinbad the Sailor and Baron Munchausen. It is strange how very little was lown about the western part of Europe and Africa in those early Jays, allhough culture had already reached a high stage in the cast, ■n Strabo, the famous Greek au- r, who lived in the time of Christ who wrote no loss than sixty ks on geography and history, stated that he had never been farther west than the Island of Sardina— which is 800 miles east of Cadiz. The ancients knew Cadiz fcy the name of Gadir—which meant a forti fied place. The modem name is the 5 old name, worn off a little as all names are worn off in the course of time. The people of Cadiz don't call their home town “Cay-diz, as we do; they pronounce it “Cah-dee,” with accent on the “dee.”—-The Pathfinder. senior class prseident, os she was THAT’S MY WEAKNESS NOW Have you heard the popular song, "That’s My Weakness Now”? And have you ever stopped to wonder if all G. S. C. W. girls have practically the same weakness or if each has a different one? Here i» what the representative girls of the senior class say about their hobbies. Carollton, Georgia, who was voted Miss G. S. C. W., as well i all .Jtound student on the calnpus says, “My favorite pastime right now is playing games. The one I like best is, “You can't have any of my pea nuts.” No, Carrie has not reached her second childhood, she is super visor of physical education in the Practice school and really enjoys her PROMINENT MILLEDGEVILLE PEOPLE EXPRESS THEIR OPIONION ON “SHOULD MARRIED WOMEN WORK?" "There are just lots of things that I enjoy doing, I really don’t know which would call my hobby," was Frances Christie's answer. Now that is to be expected of the most cupahl esenior, but if you asked the student body, I think the answer would be, "Doodle’s weakness is playing for us during pictures." Katherine Harris, the witty girl, rmilcd and said, “I like to get a good book, preferably a biography, and read while I eat candy." When l see the increased size of many freshmne I begin to believe that Kat is not alone in her weakness. “Probably I should say that roy weakness is studying, but I’m going to be honest; it is football gan You have probably guessed who said this. Why, it was'Dorothy Thaxton, the most intellectual. I stopped Cleo Jenkins, the most popular girl at G. S. C. W., and the hurrying to a class. She said, used to have time to think but be tween managing the business the class, calling senior meetings, and going to classes, I haven’t any hobby, unless you consider working one.” Our Hat’s off to you Cleo, Seniors .appreciate your spirit. Nell Combs of Locust Grove, who was selected as the most stylish girl, said, “You pfohably expect me to say that my weakness is pretty clothes. I’ll admit that I like them, but there are lots of other things that I like. At present, my main thought is about ChristmaM holidays.” Now she has n weakness that si popular on the cam pus at present. “Ever since I can remember I’ve Enjoyed tennis more than anything else.” I was not surprised to hear Dorothy Little, the most athletic “Jessie" say this for she has been the tennis champion every year since best |Bhe has been in college. Elise McCrary, who way voted the prettiest senior, said. “My hobby is going to the readnig room in Annex B and C every night after supper and listening to the impromptu program that is always given." With the laugh that has made her famous as the happiest girl on the campus, Florence Rogers said, “I sup pose my hobby right now i» working on newspapers. I’ll be that until the Union Recorder is printed any way." And most likely' it will be something entirely different after that for “Venus” does hnv one most every’week. “The fart that I gave up a fasci nating position on the New York Herald to marry, shown what ray opinion is, “said Mrs. David Fergu son in an interview nt her home Sat-' urday. “After thirty-five years, I do regret ir.y choice to give up my work to make -a home," Mrs. Ferguson said positively, clasping her hands. Mrs. Ferguson continued, her blue eyes smiling. “One of the members of the New York Women Press Club told me on my wedding day to let someone else write my stories and make my speeches, but nobody cine could mother my girls and be my boys’ best friends. I still think that my loveliest poem* were bound in white muslin, and had blue eyes.” “To make a home is one woman’s job," Mrs. Fergunon concluded seriously. When 1 asked Mr. Warnock if he thought married women should work, he answered, “Well, it’s a proposition that you cannot say "yes" or “no” to. Sometimes circumstances force one | to work. Ordinarily, however, 1 htink a wife’s work in the home is more valuable than her salary.” Mr. Warnock put his hand on his face, and stared into space thought fully. In a few minutes, he added, school. I'enjoy my wrok, but it’s a double job.' - You have to live by the cldckT' SOW, T° u caniA» your houiw- iHe'how with all the conveniences we have in one hour, whereas it' used to take six." She concluded, gesturing with her hands, "So my answer is a married woman should, work provided If the Lord gives a person a talent. He expects that person to use it." There was no hesitation on Mr. E. E. Bell’s part, when I asked him if he believed in married women work ing . “Why, yes, I certainly do believe in it Anybody who works is haiA'ier than one who doe? not,” Mr. Bell firmly replied. When I asked him if he did think that the large number of «»eking jobs did not keep s from securing jobs, he promptly answered, ‘Why, no. There arc enough jobs for those who want to work. The automobile , industry is opening up positions for many.men. So you see my opinion is decidedly that ried women- should work if they want to.

She sat down on the coal box in her husband’*) den, and clasping her hands about her knees continued meditatively, “Times have changed, everthlng has turned itself around.
