CARNIVAL GIVEN
BY ALPHA KAPPA
GAMMA SORORITY
The country carnival sponsored by
Alpha Kappa Gamma, the woman's honorary
leadership sorority, in the gym on
Friday night proved to be one of the most
unusual and highly delightful social affairs
on the University calendar of social
events.
The gym was decorated in the country
style?hay stacks, corn shucking and
scarecrows are typical examples. Ranged
along the sides of the walls were tables
and booths at which were sold anything
from apple cider down to ice cream and
chewing gum. These booths were managed
by the local sorities.
The evening's entertainment consisted
of a number of delightful dancing and
singing numbers by the Misses Lucy
Coleman, Elise Cross, Harriet Scarborough,
"Bully" Quattlebaum,. Julia
Quattlebaum and others. At the piano,
Roy Chamberlain rendered several delightful
piano solos.
During the intervals in the program
dancing was enjoyed by those people
wishing to dance. Bill Spivey's orchestra
played.

I CHRISTMAS PARTY
AT WOMAN'S DORM
ENTERTAINING PROGRAM
Chaperones at Woman's Building
Entertain Co-eds Before
Christmas
In the midst of the snow season, the
lobby of the Woman's Building was the
scene of a gala festival. Miss Irene Dillard,
dean of women, and the chaperones
of the dormitories, Mrs. Graham, Mrs.
Marion, Mrs. Barrantine and Miss White,
entertained the Carolina co-eds with a
farewell Christmas party on Wednesday
night, December 17.
The room was beautifully decorated in
gay holiday colors. In the far corner
stood a tall, brightly lighted Christmas
tree, loaded with silver balls and
spangled stars.
The girls sang beautiful Christmas
carols while Miss Martha Derrick played
the piano. Katie Bogen, Lorraine Gale
and Viola Allen gave entertaining readings.
Verna Ayer talked interestingly on
the topic, "What Does Christmas Mean?"
The evening's program was made complete
by several snappy songs by Mildred
and Alice Monheit, and ukulele selections
by Mildred.
Delightful refreshments, cake and ice
cream in rose and green were served. On
each individual plate stood a tiny red candle
in a green holder.
Mrs. Graham concluded the evening's
entertainment by presenting to each girl
a petite stocking stuffed with candy, and
wishing them all a very merry Christmas
and a happy New Year.

christmas in cuba
"Christmas is an excellent time to visit
Cuba," says Mrs. Graham, matron of the
Woman's Building.
Mrs. Graham went on one of the
Thomas Tours, which took her down the
east and west coasts of Florida and
Cuba. The first stop was St. Augustine,
other stops being made at Tampa, Key
West, and Silver Springs.
"The most enjoyable part of the trip
was the ride on the new Key West Railway.
I enjoyed the journey across the
Gulf, too, and was one of the few who
didn't get seasick."
Mrs. Graham visited the Marine Gardens
at Silver Springs, spent Christmas
day in Havana, saw the Bok Tower, a
cigar factory in action, a sugar manufacturing
plant, and many other novel
sights.

new booklet
Athletic Association Outlines Its
Purpose, Aim, And Achievement
The bulletin just issued by the Woman's
Athletic Association proves to be
quite an achievement in view of the fact
that no other organization on the campus
has issued such a publication.
It was handled entirely by hand and
was edited by the members of the Athletic
Council. The chief purpose of the
bulletin was to inform the student body
as a whole what the Woman's Athletic
Association is, what it stands for, and
what it means to, the girls interested in
physical education work.
Three hundred copies of the bulletin are
being issued now, and in the early spring
the association hopes to have a spring
edition.
girl sleeps in
cot at station
Mary usually has a little lamb, but
this time Mary had a desire for sleep
?and immediate sleep at that. The
train had just pulled into the Union
station in the blackest night that precedes
gray dawn, and the prospect of
waiting eternities for someone to let
her in the University annex did not
please Mary, so she decided to lie
down to pleasant dreams, not on her
couch, which is the place for dreams,
but in the station itself.
After glancing over the interior of
the station the only way she could
stretch out on the benches would involve
twining her arms and legs about
the arms of the seats, so she lay down
in the white crib provided for babies.
There a kindly maid found her and
covered her with a pink blanket. So
Mary slept, as innocently and calmly
as any babe, until the bustle in the
station awakened her and she finally
started on the last lap of her journey
to her destination.
Who, seeing her, would have suspected
that she was a Carolina co-ed?
(This isn't a puzzle, but her last name
suggests a very fragrant and spicy
flower.)
DOCTOR W7s. GRAY
VISITOR TO CAMPUS
A recent visitor of prominence to the
campus was Dr. William Scott Gray,
dean of the School of Education at the
University of Chicago.
Doctor Gray was in Columbia January
2nd. He addressed the meeting of the
Association of Teachers of Adult Schools
in South Carolina, which was held in the
city.
While on the campus, the visitor was
shown through the various University
buildings by Dean Baker.

NEWltESIDEN
INJWOMAf
Alphonso is the latest co-ed to enter F
the woman's dormitory. But that isn't I
news. Whoever heard of Alphonso? Be- I
sides, co-eds have lost their appeal;
whether Alphonso is*a petite blonde or a
vivid brunette ceases to hold interest. a
But wait! ''
Alphonso is a snake. One of the most
unassuming and meekest of the garden
variety. She might have lived the ordi- a
nary life of a snake if she had not been 1
spied by Miss Rosalyn Keyserling, while
crossing the athletic field one day.
Miss Keyserling has one pet hobby? g
collecting animals and keeping them in c
her room. On seeing the small, tan, yellow
object, she was determined that it
should be her latest "catch." She pro- (
vided herself with a box and bait and Q
returned to make her capture. r
"Here, climb into my box. I want you
to live with my other animals," coaxed t
fair Rosalyn, placing the box on the
ground.
"No, I prefer the freedom of an out- ?
door life," returned the snake with a t
longing glance at the bait.
"I will give you a turtle and a fish for e
company," continued the temptress.
Tiiese promises were too much for a
mere snake to resist. With one backward a
glance at his childhood home, he slid into (
the box, and Miss Keyserling bore him h
triumphantly to her room. Here, he was
introduced to the turtle and the gold fish,
the other members of the zoo. Nothwith- (
standing her rather unusual diet of cake v
and bread, our new co-ed seems to be I
very happy in her new home. t

Fashion's Foibles |
How dead is a costume without acces- J
sories. No matter how stylish is one's h
roat or dress, or becomingi one's hat, the
;nsemble is made distinctive and attrac- IT
ive by one's individual tastes as shown I
>y her accessories. ' j
As much care should be used in choos- I
ng a necklace or scarf as in selecting a 11
lat. A very round face or a plump neck I
thould never affect a choker of large I
>eads, nor should a true blond wear a red II
icarf.
Blue scarfs can be most flattering to I
)lue eyes and are effective with almost I
my color coat. Scarfs in shades of red, I
nirple and green go charmingly with I
>lack coats, while brown coats favor L
hades of tan, orange and blue. f?
Gloves may match the coat or other I
iccessories. Hat, gloves, purse and shoes I
hould be considered together. The hat I
natches the coat or scarf, ot" both, while I
he gloves are the color of the purse I
ind often of the same material. ?hoes Ij
nd purse may or may not match, de- _
lending upon whether the shoes go with I
he coat or dress or are grouped with I
he accessories. j
In considering jewelry the dress and I
ccasion determine the choice. Day- I
ime jewelry is usually chosen for its 11
olor or novelty as are modernistic I
rinkets and bracelets. For evening jew- II
Iry of brilliance and delicacy is used. I
ormal jewelry is often heavy and ?m|
lull coloring. j
The necklace may match or contrast in |
olor with the costume. Chokers are not I
o good now as formerly, longer chains I.
icing more favored. Lavalieres are again ^
;aining in popularity. These charming |
ittle ornaments are lovely for dressy 11
nd semi-dressy occasions.
Handkerchiefs now play quite a part in I
nilady's ensemble. Large squares of I
hiffon, georgette and lace lend a soft- I
ning touch to costume. The handker- I
hief for street wear harmonizes with the |r
carf and is carried under the flap of the 11
>urse. For dressy occasions it matches I
he dress and is caught in the watch or I
>racelet. Evening dresses are com- I
ilemented with silk lacy handkerchiefs I
:ither caught in an evening bag or un- I
Icr a bracelet or ring.
MANHOLE CHARGED
BY CAROLINA CO-ED
"Charge 1" greened the traffic light. And I
he fair co-cd charged her auto into a I

Unequalled by the charge of the brave |
six hundred" was the dash made for an I
incovered manhole in the middle of the I
ntersection of Sumter and Gervais I
Streets by the auto driven by Mary L. I
Cobb, a junior at the University. i
When ask<jd why she ran the front I
vheel of her car into the opening, Miss I
2obb gave "because" as sufficient ex- I
ilanation.
"I am only thankful that I was not I
Iriving an Austin," she sighed.
