Annual MldWlnter Entertainment in
the Chapel on Friday evening Dec.
9th An interesting program has
been prepared by the Thetas and no
doubt will open up the series of Mid
winter Entertainments with good sue
cess.
Mr. Joe Henry, 81, was the guest
of Mr.. and Mrs. Huffstetler
during Thanksgiving. We are al
ways glad to see Joe's smiling face.
Joe is attending the Business College
at Knoxville and his Professor saws
he has done as much work in four
weeks as the average student does in
five or six weeks. Hurrah for Toe.
Joe E. Biddle 'o8 and C. E. Will
son, 81, both of the U. of T. were
pleasant visitors on the hill last week.
Last Sabbath was Temperance Day
in the Presbyterian Church. In the
morning at New Providence Rev.
Moore, M. H. Gamble and Prof |.
A. Gains made appropriate addresses
on the great temperance question.
In the evening the service was con.
Quoted by the young people of the
Westminster League. Prof. Frank
M. Gill and Hubert Lyle made two
excellent talks. The Alpha Sigma
Quartette rendered two selections.
On the whole the service was one of
special interest, and Temperance.
Day will undoubtedly do much to
promote the cause of Temperance.
Ned King, of South Knoxville who
was In College some years ago, was
visiting on the Hill last Saturday.
We are indeed sorry to announce
that Harris Bradford of Ashville; N.

Market, Tenn. have left for their
homes the pasr week. The former
because his eyes have given out under
the strain of study; the latter because
of very painful carbuncle on his
right arm.
During the holiday season just past
we have had very enjoyable run of
parties, socials and receptions, which
enabled students on the hill to stand
off inconsistencies.
