HIGHER EDUCATION
Citizenship Should Be Stand-ard

Desire to Be Scholars.

In ;in address to the student body
Tuesday, February 27. Ht the regular
chap i boor, Dr. Benjamin Readrick,
• of history, raid that within
the but 4" yeas, higher edoeati
>:: f"r nil had bet a pi
He told of great Southern edeeatora,
avo, beeaoae they had been deprived ol
• in < ducat Ion aa I
their interest, made a plea Ihrougboul
the South for universal education. Y
! n ■ particular definition
of education, other than mere school
ing.
The speaker declared that in the field
of adueatloa are should not be »o con
cerned with the idea that alt people
■kosj|d become scholar*. This is not de-sirable,
he said, because in such a case
there would not be enough for all to do.
But he also declared that people who
go to college muni be citizen* and be
concerned with life. He stated that we
are educated for now and for the fu
ture, that if we are to have intelligent
citizeni, we must edueatc hue people;
for progress, we must have interested,
intelligent people.
Dr. Keiidri.k declared that although
salaries had been cut in colleges in the
South, those concerned had not become
lownhearted. but were ready to rededi-eate
themselves. He said that through
education we can reorganize society;
obtain a society in which alt can have
| the minimum neees-titie* of life.

RECITAL FEBRUARY 22
Electrical Sleet Storm
Creates Semi'Holiday
The lashing tail of a blizzed struck <
Greensboro Sunday morning nnd be-haved
freakishly nnd without reason.
It clothed every tree and building on
rumpus in a sheath of ice, then changed
into rain, which kept the walks and
streets flooded with water. It was.
more than an ice and rain storm, for
by some quirk of natural law a mid-winter
sky was illumined by lightning
and thunder roared an amazed protest
against being wakened so early in the
year.
The rain changed to ice as fast as it
struck the trees and the spot-light on
College Avenue showed the trees in
front of Bpeaeor bending to the ground.
The dogwoods in front of Woman's
were so heavily coated with ice that
they were broken off short. The pines
outside of Gray Here bent nnd warped.
Tin* Front campus ana a glistening
wreak of trees. Telephone poles and
•re down in front of CottOB.
The road the mail truck taken to the
Poet Office u-aa blocked by branches
that had fallen from the brae over the
coraai nail-box. Shrubbery was broken
down and small trees ware RpUl down
• The trunk. Th. Japan
•-.- plum tree in front of the ruins was
broken off until only the trunk re-malned.
Thi eraah of falling tr< - k pi ita
dents awake moat*of the night, lion
day morning re constants
interrupted by the noise made by fall-ing
branches.
The lights went out at 10 o'clock
Sunday night. Students wandered
frantically through the halls, searching
for candles. Monday morning found
the entire college and the city of
Greensboro without lights or electrical
power of any sort. Classes ran in a
hit or-miss manner because students
were too excited to be even sleepy.
They were too busy finding out the to-tal
amount of the damage. And they
hadnt recovered from the miracle of
getting breakfast by candlelight.
Wild reports that there would bs no
lights for two weeks were circulated
and proposals to go home, call off
classes, or do something were ad-vanced.
Then we settled down and
gasped when we realized that the dam-
■ge in braes Ol campus had ben eval-uated
at $25,000. Every piece of elec-trical
equipment in the college hed
been put out of commission and we
found ourselves eating from paper
plates and drinking out of pap. r ewpS,
The bread wo ate was ordered from
Raleigh, and we began to understand
What Miss Coolidge had to contend with
win u *'. i. lind that bread had to be
mixed. and every dish had to be
wanked by hand. Students havu eonv
i Mies' oolidgc foi thf efficiency
with which she net this crisis and kept
n community of 1.-. 1 with

handicaps.

STUDENTS SUPPORT
SPORT ACTMTIES
Woman's College (iroup is to
Enter National Tclepraphic
Swimming Meet in March.
MISS DAVIS IS ADVISER
Not even the cold waves and wintry
blasts that have come and gone nnd
■eh again since this paper was
last published have dampened the spir-its
of the swimmers out for that sport.
The elasses are fairly well represented,
but no* aa well as in previous time.
Much interest has been shown in the
practices, and qui'e a bit of attention
given to Improvement in form In
strokes and diving. At the present
time the girls are paying special atten-tion
to the events in which they are
to compete in the BOSt to be held on
March 2. Because they are not enough
girls out for the sport to justify two
meets, there will only be one, but it is
going to be a good one. Events for
the occasion will be given in the next
Carolinian.
This year the college is entering a
national telegraphic swimming meet, to
be held some time in March. This meet
is sponsored by the University of Illi-nois,
winners of the same for the past
two years. Any student interested in
swimming and who passed all academic
work for the last semester is eligible
provided that she attends eight half-hour
practices. The student does not
have to have been out for swimming as
a sport, although it is best to get in
as many practices as possible. The
events are all for speed: 40-yard crawl,
100-yard free style, 40-yard back; 100-
yard back; 40-yard brenst; 100 yard
breast. They sound bad, but they real-ly
are not. If you are interested in
entering the meet, see Miss Davis or
Anna Wills right away.
