VOLUME II GREENSBORO, N. C, MAY 22, 1920 NUMBER 30
MENDELSSOHN'S
"ST.PAUL"TOBESUNG
FRED PATTON, OF NEW YORK,
BASS SOLOIST
The chorus is to present Mendels-sohn's
"St. Paul" on Monday night
of Commencement, May 31. This is
an event which the students and
many people from Greensboro and
nearby towns have been looking for-ward
to this spring.
In December of each year, a Christ-mas
oratorio is sung and at Com-mencement
some work of very high
standard is performed. This year
Handel's "Messiah" was sung at
Christmas time and now we are to
hear the first one of Mendelssohn's
great chorail works with the soloists,
Miss Alice Bivens, soprano; Mrs.
Wade R. Brown, contralto; Mr.
Koibert Quatt* tenor, and Mr. Fred
Patton, bass.
The chorus will consist of our own
college chorus, one composed of
Greensboro people, and the Salisbury
Oratorio Society. The chorus from
Salisbury numbers about 40. They
have been trained by Mr. George
Scott-Hunter, of our music faculty.
The entire chorus will number about
150 singers.
Park Night
Park Night is beginning to be a
reality. The enthusiasm being mani-fested
by the faculty and students
predicts a great success. Service and
her hand maids have already been
chosen, and the committee Is at work
on the costumes and dances. The
new outdoor theater is nearing com-pletion
amdi the time has come for
the classes to get to work on their
prettiest songs to sing to the Alumni
and make Park Night the most in-spiring
event of the year.
CORRECTION
An last week's Carolinian there
was a statement that Wilson had
pledged $15 to the Alumnae Build-ing.
We desire to say that the sum
pledged was $1,500 instead of $15.
Virginia Smoot spent last week-end
at her home in Concord.

President Kernodle Presides
At The Last Meeting
LAST ASSEMBLAGE FOR SENIORS
AT MASS MEETING
Interesting Park Night Planned—Re-turn
to Old Schedule
Rev. Kerr Boyce Tupper, who will
deliver the Y. W. C. A. sermon at
8 p. m. Sunday, May 30, at the Open
Air Theater, has been a lecturer for
a number of years. He has been
pastor of the largest Baptist churches
in Philadelphia and New York. Rev.
John R. Straton, D. D., of New York
City, who is to preach the baccalau-reate
sermon, is of especial interest
to us, because he was a schoolmate
of Mr. Jackson. They were in col-lege
together at Mercer University,
Macon, Ga. He has also been on the
lecture platform, but for the past
few years, has been pastor of the
Calvary Baptist church, the most
prominent Baptist church in New
York City. We are very fortunate
in having him at our college.

Our regular mass meeting was
held Thursday evening in the audi-torium
of Students' Building. After
singing their class song, the Sopho-mores
very sad'ly sang a farewell song
to their "big sisters." This was the
last time that the Seniors will ever
be assembled for mass meeting.
There was not a dry eye in the audi-torium,
when ithe Sophomores fin-ished.
After the Freshmen sang their
class song, the stately Seniors filed
out, leaving the meeting to the
Freshmen, Sophomores and Juniors.
At first we felt that we simply could
not get along without them,"
but we soon realized that we could
not have them with us always, and
go, and "keep the good work go-ing.

The social committee submitted
some very interesting plans for Park
Night. Instead of the oratorical con-test
on Saturday night, we will have
"Park Night," which we will have for
the first time this year. The chief
event of the evening will be a speech
by a girl who has been elected by
secret ballot and who will represent
Service. To represnt Service on Park
Night will be on of the biggest hon-ors
a girl can have conferred upon
her.
Eunice McAdams was elected to
go to the Southern Student Confer-ence
at Blue Ridge. She was also
elected chairman of the Glee Club
for the coming year.
Bess Siceloff was elected treasurer
of the Serbian fund for next year.
It was moved andi carried unani-mously
that we return to the old
schedule with breakfast at 7:30 and
light bell at 10:30.

Senior Recital Over;
Many Interesting
Programs
,We are very sorry that our nine
Senior recitals are over, and that we
will have no more until next spring.
They occurred in the following or-der:
Elseline Felton, Cornelia Jones,
Rachel Haynes, Marguerite Jenkins,
Mary Fulton, Mary Hold ford, Annie
May Pharr, Lucy Vickery, Lena Wil-liams.
The programs were in them-selves
interesting and enjoyable, and
were rendered with real feeling and
artistic charm. Among the most in-teresting
numbers were Miss Fel-ton's
"Faust Waltz," Miss Haynes'
MacDowell numbers, Miss Fulton's
"The Elves," and many of the songs
by Miss Pharr and Mass Jenkins,
especially the "Hindoo Song" and
"My Love is a dashing mulateer."
All of the recitals this year have
been very well attended and have
proved, to the students, a pleasant
ending to the data's work.
Miss Bertha Lee, former head of
the German department, was the
guest of Miss Strong.
