The Adelphian banquet on Friday
night was the most successful that
has ever been given. The dining
room was beautifully decorated with
fern and red dahlias, carrying out a
color scheme of red and white; the
menu was the most tempting, the
music was the best, and the men
even more plentiful than ever before.
Miss Pauline Green, as toastmis-tress,
presided with grace and ease.
After welcoming everyone, she in-troduced
Miss Gladys Whitley, who
greeted the new Adelphians and
made them feel at once that they
were full-fledged society members,
Miss Julia Franc, of the Freshman
Class, responded. She made every-one
realize that the new members
were loyal and devoted Adelphians.
Miss Virginia Davis toasted "Our Old
Friends, the Alumnae." Miss Rachel
Clifford, *20, respond** Miss Flor-ence
Way welcomed the Dikeans and
Cornelians, and Miss Ruth Vick and
Miss Mildred Price responded for
their Societies. Miss Flossie Foster
toasted Adelphai. As a response, a
beautiful dance was given in the Gre-cian
temple constructed in the cen-ter
of the dining room. The dancers
were: Julia Maie Southerland, Eve-lyn
Hodges, Clyde Wright, Helen
Feree, Evelyn Wilson, Frances Sin-gleton,
Sallie Lee Collins, and Eva
Hodges.
Miss Aline Mulder greeted "The
men—our strength in ages past." Mr.
William Andrews, of the University,
responded.
Miss Mildred Barrington toasted
the College, and Professor E. C. Lin-deman
responded.
The menu was:
Grapefruit in half shell
Creamed chicken in Timbales
Buttered Peas Mashed Potatoes
Parker House Rolls and Butter
t Ice Cream Wafers
Ceffee
Mint*
With whoops and yells the big
Democratic convention opened on the
steps of Students' Building Tuesday
at 12:15. This lively meeting was
called to order by the chairman, Mil-dred
Barrington, who explained the
reason for the meeting. Nomina-tions
were then in order for Presi-dent
The various nominees made
stirring and impressive speeches in
their behalf and that of the party.
Gladys Wells was elected President.
The vice-president was next elected.
Many were the nominees, but of all
these, Hon. Myrtle Warren, who
made a thrilling address, was elected
with an overwhelming majority.
Though the contest for the office of
campaign manager was hot and spir-ited,
Blanch Plott won on the plea
that she was poor and needed the
money. The electoral college was
voted upon. These twelve girls are
to meet with the electoral college
from Greensboro College and elect
the President. Judging from the size
of the crown, the ring of the cheers
and yells, and the rousing speeches,
one would be quite safe in saying
that "the donkey still wears the
halter."

Department, Helen Ferree; Man-dolin
Department, Sarah Harrison;

Following the initiation of new

Japanese lanterns and branches of
cherry blossoms- were used in the

A ccexUal toast la the Alumnae

Last Monday night a great havoc
was wrought at the weekly newspa-per

seated at their desks doling out
news, when in flew a large biack fly

editor. At any moment the
cruel creature seemed ready to
pounce upon the head of its inno-cent
victim. Round and round it The class of Red and White held

Mr. Brown, chairman of the con-cert
lecture course committee, an-nounces
the following:
The first concert will be given by
Florence Macbeth, November 10,
1920. Miss Macbeth is the leading
coloratura, soprano of the Chicago
Grand Opera Company. She pos-sesses
a faultless pearly coloratura
voice of flutelike purity and this,
with the admirable artistic qualities
of her singing, place her in the fore-most
ranks of the great artists of all
time. Miss Macbeth was one of the
leading soloists at the Asheville Mu-sical
Festival held the past summer,
and it is a rare treat to have her in
Greensboro.
Other numbers already arranged
are two lectures by the noted writer
and lecturer, Norman AngelL on Fri-day,
December 3, 1920; and a con-cert
by theLetz String Quartet Feb-ruary
14, 1921. Engagements for the
remaining numbers of the course are
still pending.

6 To Discuss Plans for
the Future
An important meeting of our
Alumnae will be held at the College
Saturday, November 6, the purpose
being to take up problems affecting
the growth and development of the
College. An afternoon and an even-ing
session will be held. Several com-mittees

schedule of the work to be consid-ered
is being drawn up.
This meeting is the outgrowth of
a meeting of Guilford county Alum-nae,

that are being made to meet the
need. It is hoped that a definite pro-gram
of growth may be outlined.

seemed tha»t the whole building must
fall. B\»t one el the euick witted
reporters hastily seized a large black
bag \» one hand and a broom in the
other and gave the wild insect a blow
on the cranium. It fell to the floor
with a loud buzz. Coroner Rhyne
made a post-nKjrtera examination and
proved the creature to be a honey
bee of the meat ferocious type. No
damage was dene other than giving
a great number of journalists a ter-rible
scare.
