1 want to have a little house
With sunlifht on the floor,
A chimney with a rosy hearth,
And lilacs by the door. ' (
With windows looking east and west.
And a crooked apple tree,
And room beside the garden fence
For hollyhocks to be.
:$f v . & * t
Oh, all my life I’ve wandered round,
But the heart is quick to know
It’s own roof and it’s own bush,
And it’s own boughs blowing.
And when I find that little house—
At noon or dusk or dawn—
I’ll walk right in and light -the fire
And put the kettle on.

Y. M. C. A. ENTERAINS
NEW STUDENTS
The Freshman class of the Presby
terian College was the guest of the
Y. M. C. A. on last Saturday even
ing at the annual Freshman reception.
This reception is a get-to-gether meet
ing given under the auspices of the
Y. M. C. A. to introduce the new
men in a social way to the town of
Clinton and to the '* college. The
Freshmen and their girls were met at
the doors of the Administration build
ing by a receiving line consisting of
the faculty and their wives, Mrs. J.
I. Copeland and Mrs. H. A. Copeland.
Everyone was seated in the auditor
ium and a most entertaining program
was rendered. Mr. W. H. Dendy, pre
sident of the Y. M. C. A., delivered
the welcoming address. A piano solo
was rendered by Miss Leonel Smith.
Dr. Douglas gave a welcome address
to the new#men in behalf of the col
lege and faculty. Miss Mercer VAnce
gave a reading that was highly en
joyed by all. Lastly, Mr. A. W. Brice
■welcomed the new men in behalf of
Clinton. The talks were all brim-
mitig full of fellowship and good ad
vice, and went straight to the heart
of every Freshman.
. After the above program was ren
dered the social hour propet began.
An ever alert changing committee
was on the job and in this way tlje
new men were able to meet quite a

Mr. and Mrs. Charles R. Hull and

Miss Lila Rivers spent Sunday in

Mr. William Stack, who has been

and Mrs. 0. B. Burroughs.
Miss Willie Putnam has accepted

Dear Miss Flo: When a young man
asks your company home and you
have company, what should be your
answer. (2) When a gentleman asks
a young lady to be his Wife, what
should be her reply if she wishes to
marry him? (3) What sort of a gift
would be proper to give to a young
man for a birthday present? (4) In
having a box supper, is it polife for
a young girl to describe her box if
she is asked to do so by one of her
boy friends? (5) When a lady is
asked by a young man her age, should
she tell him? (6) Is it out of the
way for an engaged couple to kiss
good-night. Thank you. PEGGY.
(1) If you have an escort home,
tell the gentleman that you have made
arrangements for going home. (2)
That’s a rather difficult question to
answer, Peggy, as it depends entirely
upon the girl’s nature and her emo
tions. Suppose, for instance,' John
says to Mary: “Mary, darling, I love
you, and want you to marry me.” If
Mary is a modern, frank young per
son, and she is sure that she wants
to marry John, she will probably say:
“I also love you, John, 'and will be
very happy to be your wife.” Then,
again, Mary may be a little shy, and
she may not be quite ready to say
“Yes.” In that case, she will tell him
something like this: “John, dear, I
like you very much, but I think I
would like a few days in which to
think it over.” As a matter of fact,
Peggy, there are few real proposals.
By the time that stage of love is
reached, where a man wishes to
marry a girl there is just a sort of an
understanding, and before they know
it, they are planning their lining
room, furniture, curtains, etc. And if
there should be a really honest-to-
goodness proposal, Mary’s own feel
ings will guide her speech. (3) If
you wish to give a boy friend a gift,
why not make it a carton of his fav
orite cigarettes, a book, initialed
handkerchiefs, or some other small
gift that will be practical and that
will be sure to be appreciated. (4) It
doesn’t show very good sportsman
ship to describe your box to the boy
with whom you would like to share
your box. The idea of the box sup
per is, more or less, a game of chance,
and the gentleman is supposed to
take a chance upon getting the box
belonging to the girl he would like
to have supper with. In other words,
it would be cheating and giving the
boy an unfair advantage to describe
your box. (5) It is permissible for
the lady to tell the gentleman her
age if she wishes. (6) An engaged
couple may kiss good-night.
THRIFTY TIPS
By MISS FLO
Cocoa: If a pinch of cloves is ad
ded to cocoa when making a cake it
will improve the flavor.
Hair Brushes: If hair brushes are
washed with soda instead of soap, the
bristles will remain stiff and white.
Soap softens the bristles and does not
clean as quickly as soda.

Teacups: If your teacups are badly
stained, try washing them in a mix

move all spots.

times look very faded after washing.
To avoid fading, use one tablespoon

Clothes: If clothes are sprinkled
with warm water instead of cold they
will be ready to iron in a few mo

a solution of alum and water bottled
