MADAM SERREC
TALKS IN CHAPEL
Noted Health And Beauty Expert
Denounces Smoking And
Hoseless Girls
Mmne. Janette Serrec, who is in Co
lumbia this week under the auspices
of The Record, spoke last Wednes
day morning, during the chapel hour
on "Health and Beauty". Mine. Ser
rec is conducting a series of charm
talks at the Columbia Theater for the
women and young ladies of the city.
Reminiscent of her campus days at
the University of Chicago, Mine. Ser
rec spoke of the influence of college
in later life. Stressing her points by
sharp attacks in the urge of the mod
ern to follow the common herd, she
urged those present to develop their
inner-selves. She claimed that the
proof of modern freedom was not
following the fad but suiting one's
taste and character. By apt illustra
tions she showed her audience that
simple things done correctly lead to a
happy and free life. She admitted
that the girl who smokes is not show
B ing her modern freedom but being
confined by her own view. Instead
of being free, she is being led by
others, bound by their own convic
tions.
t She stated that girls who go with
out hose destroy the effect of femi
nine subtlety that is their fascination
to men. She urged the co-eds to
Cdress themselves in deference to their
.. natural taste and not be led by some
outlandish style.

Jest a-sittin', smokin' Edgeworth
An' a-thinkcin', dear of you;
An' a candle's burnin' brightly,
An' it says your love is true.
For the days are long, of waitin',
An' the nights are longer still,
An' sometimes (always smokin')
I pick up this old quill
An' try to write some poetry
To tell you of my love.
As poetry it ain't much good,
But---holy days above
It's jest the best I can, an' so
You'll find me, when I'm through.
Jest a-sittin'. smokin' Edgeworth,
An' a-thinkin', dear, of you.
