President John McSween, .of the col lege, was called upon for a short toast. In « few words his rollicking good-humor had lightened the whole tone of the evening. After a number of anecdotes and fitting stories, Mr. McSween closed with 'a few serious words of welcome and of prai^. One of his remarks was so fitting that it is passed on heib. He complimented the P. C. student body on their excel lent taste in picking women; but it was not an extravagant compliment, for even the modest students them selves could not help but agree. The third and last response of the evening was made by Dr. A. E. Spen cer, chairman of the faculty commit tee on fraternities. His words were few, but the thoughts they expressed were in perfect accord with the spirit of the occasion. The Gamecocks put life into the whole affair with their excellent play ing.

BATH MATS AND TOWELS RENNO We had a real good sermon Sunday afternoon, attended by an unusually large congregation, due to the pretty spring weather which every one is glad to see. Among the out-of-community vis itors who attended s^ice were Mr. John Thompson and daughter, from Newberry, Mrs. Mary Henry, Mrs. Ell Bell, Mrs. H. M. Gear and Horace Gear. Some understanding soul must have created the designs fer new bath mats and Turkish towels—for not only have they backgrounds of green, mauve, maize or rose, but motifs themselves turn to all manner of sprightly themes for inspiration. And we have rollicking dolphins disporting themselves across the bath towel; such subtle suggestions of spring and summer as the katydid and what we take to be the humming bird! sible—these decorative notes fbift' tl^^nywlyeB welcome in the vmt- tln^^of niaking; ready for the Rehmwes Grease Frost WaHpaper Mbisten a' soft flannel cloth with alcohol and rub gently over gnmm spots on wall paper and they will <D»- appear.

PAN-HELLENIC BANQUET A COLORFUL AFFAIR ' Pan-Hellenic, the major social func tion of the year at Preshytei'ian college, has moved from the future into the past. It has left the ranks of our cherished expectations to join the multitude of those memories that we love to review from time to time. The 1929 Pan-Hellenic celebration has been one of the most delightful and successful that has ever been con ceived by the Greek-letter association m recent years. ' To Wear In The Parade Of Fashion u 000 Easter Sunday ... the day of days ... that fashionable promenade . . . you, too, will b? dressed In the smartest, for what woman does not display her charm on Easter Day!

JOHN SPRATl’. ^ • At nine o’clock Friday night about seventy-five girls were escorted into Tuid hall for the banquet. It was a beautiful scene. Never before has the campus of Presbyterian college seen quite the equal of that array of femi nine beauty and subtle charm. The decorations, over which the committee had been laboring for near ly a week, wei’e in excellent taste, and provided a worthy setting for the evening’s drama. The long tables, il luminated by the golden glow of scores of candles, were all that was needed to give the whole atmosphere the aspect of a dream. And when the Carolina Gamecock orohestra struck up with the opening notes of their first piece, it became at once apparent that the Pan-Hellenic council had not overlooked a single small point that might -have added to the splendor of the' occasion. Jhe menu was equal in every way to the difficult task of living up to the rest of the evening’s program. Mrs. Wilson, of Hotel Clinton, showed that she has not lost the fine art of planning meals — and gave ample .proof' of the reason for having been awarded so many Pan-Hellenic con-' tracts in the past. There was not a hitch, not a flaw. The evening was perfect. When the curtain was just prepar ing to fail on the ^st act of the drama. President Spencer Elliott, of the Pan-Hellenic council, arose to in augurate the short series of toasts. He .spoke a few words of welcome, on behalf of both the council and the stu dent body.
