Dr. Skinner is well kIown oin the college campus and is very popular among the University students.

Y. M. C. A. HOLDS MEETING The Y. W. C. A. held its regu lar meeting Monday afternoon in the Y. W. rooms. The devotional exercises were coniducted by Miss es Cravens, Penland, and Waite. This was the first meeting con ducted by the girls alone, but it is hoped that the Y. W. will be it source of encouragement for self expression among the gils. A social-service prograin was carried out; the studeit-speIcakers were Misses Fletcher Stackhouse and Mary Graydon, the theme of the two talks being opportunity for service. Miss Stackhouse, outlined the opportunity for service in world affairs and inter-racial relations; her subject was 'The Day after To-morrow.' She stressed the great need for college trained men and women in making the land of day after to-morrow where we, who are in school now will be citi Y.ens. The theme of her talk was the world as it is, the world as we would like it, and the world as it Everyth nmJt-Sf &DOMESTI R. J. REYNO! should be. The appeal was for young women of the three-fold development of body, mind, and soul--girls who '"live not in the peace of their self-content," but girls who live lives of service to the wordIn, making their "corners" better by making some other's corner better. Miss Gray(lo's sibject was "Know Your City." Miss Gray donl has been engaged for several months in social service work in the city. She discussed her work, describing conditions which exist in our city which should be renic die(, and conditions which only legislation directe(d by a "corps of earnest workers" can remedy. Her appeal was for co-operation of the school girls with social organ izations for the betterment of our city. The Service committee then presented their plans for giving a Xmas tree for some of these lit tle children who will have no "Santa Claus." Every member of the Y. W. is to "adopt" one child, and a jolly good time is expected. The Social committee served a salad course. The girls are very appreciative of the "kitchenette" which has recently been fitted up for the Y. W. girls. in for thng fo s T HAT'S OUR IDI CAMELS-the Quali Why, just buy Camels and 1 [t's the best packing science : :igarettes fresh and full flavc Heavy paper outside-secure f mnd the revenue stamp over the ige and keep it air-tight.
