Wrltte·n By Students Dances, a processional of college girls with torches, and a beautiful .ritual, featu.( e the Park Night Service, which will be held in Peabody Park: Friday night, at nine o'clock. In this ceremony, the identity of the girl who has been chosen as Service is revealed. "Service" is elected by secret ballot of the student body as the girl who has served her Alma Mater most during her college career. Her name, and the names of h-er three attendants, Body, Mind, and Spirit, who are toe next in order of el6.1ltion, are kept secret until the night ·of this ceremony. The choice of the classes, the societies, tbe Alum· nae, and the Faculty, for handmaidens to Service are also made known at this time. ..... Park night service was fir~t held in 1920. It was the result of a universal desire for a college tradition different from the usual run of college customs . The first thing decided was that as the Park is one of the most distinctive and one of the most loved parts of t.he ~.:tmpus, i't. should have a p1·ominent pla«e in this tradition. Then it was quite natural that the college motto "Service" should be thought of, and it was decided tjlat each year a girl would be chosen to personify Service and that a. ceremony would be given in her honor in the Park. The entire Park Night Service was planned and written by students, and thus originated one of the most beautiful college traditions. The first person to be Service was a junior, Lena Kernodle, 110w Mrs. McDuffie, in 1920. Those coming after her are: '21, Gladys Wells, now Mrs. W. R. Ringer; ~2, Marie Bonitz; '23, Virginia Terrell / '24, Lula Woody; '25, Rosalyn Nix; and ' 26, Georgia Khkpatrick. The entire text of the ceremony is as follows~ Newly Appointed Supreme Court Judge Has a Long Record of Service to the State The graduating exercises of the clas$ of 1927, at which time 275 students will receive their degrees, will take place Monday evening at 8 :30, in the new auditorium of the North Carolina College. Judge N. A. Townsend will deliver the address of the occasion. Judge Townsend is a native North Carolinian. He is a leading lawyer of Dunn, and has recently been appointed judge of the supreme court. Judge Tow11Send was 1925 ~liairman of th~ fin ance committee of the house of representatives and ex-officio member of the budget committee.
