The program Wednesday afternoon consisted of a paper on "Henry.Timrod, Laureate of the Confederacy," presented by Rosalie Watson. The committee appointed to investigate whether the constitution specified the weekly meeting of the society reported that it did, therefore the question was put off until two-thirds of the membership should be present. Estelle Deutchman was voted into the society. Kitty Martin was congratulated by the society for being a member of the first coed debating team to beat Winthrop.

U. s. C. SUSPENSE FOLLOWS ATTACK BY POOCH "The difference between a mad dog and a mad-dog is only about two weeks," says Mrs. Madden, but Kenneth Prince has cause to think the, difference between himself and a madhouse is far less. It was just this Wednesday that Kenneth was met roaming the campus with half mad eyes, and it was then that he confided the fact that in two days he would know whether the dog which had bitten him two weeks ago was mad or merely angry. The accident happened on February 12 when, as Freshman Prince was delivering papers, he was attacked by a small vicious dog. He immediately visited Mrs. Madden at the infirmary, where he was informed that having no direct proof that the dog was really mad, the on!} thing to do was to wait two weeks and find out. When Kenneth was encountered Wednesday he said that he had only two days left before | he could find out whether he was going mad or merely crazy. U. s. c. Dr. Babcock (to his'wife) : "How did you like my speech? Did I put enough fire into it?" Small Huck (from a far corner): aw, pop. The trouble was you didn't put enough of your speech into the fire." Newsboy: "Five cents, mister." Stude: "But it's marked two cents." Boy: "Yeh, but you don't want to believe everything you see in the papers mister."

C. Davis during the University hour Wednesday. The subject was "How We Misspell." Professor Davis declared that students could not be culled like peaches, but individual spelling problems must be dealt with separately. He explained that some were different, others indifferent and a great many indignant, as the boy who wanted to know what p-l-e-s-h-u-r-e spelled if not pleasure. He also cited several others words commonly erroneously constructed. "If a student spells three out of four words correctly, he gets a passing grade, but how would a stenographer fare if , she made even an occasional mistake; | or suppose a car sometimes missed on one cylinder, or there was an occasional fly in the boss's milk." "Cylinder" reminded Dr. Davis of the four hundred words that freshmen must learn to spell in English, among them such triple-threats as syllable, cynosure and cynical. He said he showed the list to a business acquaintance recently who declared he did not know there were so many disagreeable words in the dictionary. The professor spoke entertainingly about the good old days when spelling was a game before they took all the fun out of it by making it too scientific. He mentioned the difference in the division of spelling of the present day compared with the halcyon period of the Blue Back speller. Professor Davis stated that there was as much difficulty in revising the spelling methods ordained by custom and usage as there was in changing the metric system. However, he declared that the rapidity of scientific development in lines gave hope of the time when spelling will be a matter of phonetics. It is a job for lexicographers and librarians to inaugurate any radical improvements. In conclusion Dr. Davis remarked that each should bring his peculiar talents to bear on his individual orthographic difficulties. The program was begun by a transcription of the Alma Mater as recorded by the glee club on its recent trip to Chicago. It was concluded by piano selections by Miller Simpson and a group of songs by three German composers, sung by William Boozer, who was accompanied by Mr. Simpson. u. s. c. Professors Recover From Recent Illness The many friends of Dr. W. B. Burney, professor of chemistry, will be glad to learn that his condition shows some improvement, following a serious operation several days ago.

Professor Joseph Norwood's friends arc pleased to know that he is recovering from an attack of influenza which developed over a week ago. Although his illness was not serious, he was confined to his bed for some days. He expects to meet classes the last of this week. Have You Chosen ^ Your Life Work?

Murchison, chaplain and professor of Bible at the University, addressed the freshman class Wednesday on the subject, "The Opportunities Afforded The Ministry." This lecture was one of the series of vocational talks being presented in the freshman chapel period each Wednesday. "Do not enter the ministry as a profession. The candidate for the ministry must feel a strong spiritual urge." Dr. Murchison advised. A candidate must also receive the approval of his own church before entering a seminary. He must apply to the heads of his church and receive their ( approbation. The prospective minister , must also be accepted by the people. The qualities necessary for the minis' try are piety, sincerity, truth, and rigl>teousness. The candidate must be a godly man, a good man with hypocrisy or de, ception. He must have had some spiritual experience. "He must be a man of intellect, a thinker,T said Dr. Murchison. VThis is even more true today than it was in the past. He must think as well, and even a little ahead of the average man." The candidate must have at least an A.B. degree. He must know something of all the sciences, physical and social. He must know history. After attending college he must study at a seminary for three years. Here he must learn to read the Old Testament in Hebrew and the New in Greek. He must have a clear knowledge of the history of the church and of all the religions of the world. He must learn to be an interpreter of language so that he may tell it to the congregation. He must learn the preparation and delivery of the various types of sermons. The minister's life is the fullest life. He must prepare and deliver two or "Flowers That Last" ESTABLISHED IBM Telephone 4?2? 1442 Main St. % We Will Gr Stj BERG To The Carolina S MOST POPt In The Statistical Cc THE GAMEO LEAR] Specialized COLI That are designed by C ar BERG Have Been Voted the and Hats on See the New i r THE M IffiHOPt MAIN i | / COIAJM Main a JOE HIOTT, Cam% ' i ^Vocation ~""1 i To Freshman t Wheeler Speaks To The Baptist Club On "Motives Of Life" Addresses Students At Regular Meeting In Meltan Hall On February 20th pC|,?,lng, "Mo,ive" as ? subject Paul Wheeler, pastor of the Park Street $ Baptist church made an address to the Baptist club of the University at its last meeting which was held in Melton . j Hall on February 20. ,-7/ ."*4 The speaker declared that there are two motives in life, that of love and that of jealousy.
