Joint Chapel.
The students of Central and Howard-Payne held
joint chapel at Classic Hall on Saturday morning,
April thirteenth. Mr. Stonewall Anderson of Nashville,
Tennessee was present and conducted the exercises.
After the usual devotional services, he made
an interesting and helpful talk. The young men seemed
unusually appreciative of Mr. Anderson, because of
the many suggestions he gave the young ladies for the
management of husbands and domestic affairs. Mr.
Anderson is an unusually interesting man and all felt
that they were indeed fortunate to have enjoyed the
privilege of hearing him.

Sophomore Party.
On Monday evening, April twenty-ninth, Howard-
Payne was a scene of much meriment, for the Sophomore's
delightfully entertained the Seniors. The
guests were asked to come in childhood dress, which
added greatly to the fun. The games, which also
brought memories of childhood days, were thoroughly
enjoyed by all. The library was perhaps the most
popular nook for the "children" wandered that way
quite frequently, for there they were able to obtain at
the attractive booth the nick-nacks, of which children
are so fond. Altoghether the affairs was one at

A Tragedy in Silence
(With apologies to Spencer)
A dimpled Dite was marehing home from prayer,
Yeladd in flowing goune and tasseled cap,
Wherein appeared old dints of former wear
Of pyns ypunched through her shynying haire;
Across was scene a Central scolers shap,
[?is] tretys hat in her direction sprong,
To show his love had met with no mishap,
She smyled; again his lid upgong
She turned her head; the scoler wot that he was stoog.

He loked astounded and his heart yyearned,
As he ywondered why this spiteful mood,
Why him so suddenly, forsooth, she spurned,
He cast his eyen beyond this Dite so rude,
The reason saw: a wight, a "Coed" good,
Just opposite went tripping on her way
The Dite weening the scol'r addressed the prude,
Ytossed her head, passed on with no delay,
And thus the wone with Dite and Coed every day.

Y. W. C. A.
On Sunday, April 14, the Y. W. C. A., meeting was
held in Classic Hall. Mr. Dyson was the leader and
talked about "Friendship." Miss Nora Cunningham
favored us with a solo.
The Y. W. C. A. meeting of April 21 was conducted
by Miss Helen Gardner in Classic Hall. Procrastination,"
was the subject of her talk. Every hour has
its duty and if we neglect to do that duty in one hour
then we have to crowd it into the next and it will not
be done thoroughly.
Miss Helen Hogan read, "The After Whiles,"
April 28, Miss Milam gave a very interesting
talk on "A Firm Purpose." The lesson was taken
from Daniel 2:8.
