Through the kindness Of the President and
his good wife an outing was planned for the
young lady students Of G. G., and executed
on last Saturday afternoon. At half past
two carriages were in readiness and merry
Several hours were spent in roaming through
the fragrant forests gathering autum
trophies drinking water from the crystal
spring, and last but not, least, partaking OF
dainty luncheon prepared by Mrs. xcln-
tosh. Then through the dusky cleaning
back to the college home. The exhilaration
OF mind and soul cannot prevent the body
from weariness, even at college picnic.
Most excellent work Is being done this year
under Miss Eva L. Coney, the musical d.
rectress, who Is q we'll known musical con-
noiseur in musical circles. She reports
about ninety pupils, making fine progress,
and enthusiastically engaged in harmony
and theory and all that pertains to an edu-
cation in her line Of work
The New Orleans Christian Advocate OF
last week contains paper entitled Eng
lands Uncrowned Laureate" by Miss Mary
V. Duval, one Of Mississippi's mosf gifted
daughters, and who is at present member
Of the Grenada College faculty. She
eulogixes Kipling as the one power that
stands today boldly sillouhetted in the lit
erary world that can soothe the restless be-
ing Of the teeming millions from the lower
walks OF life. and mould the sentiment of
the English Parliament, whose proud boast
is that unfettered and unbiased 1t leads the
world in ethical and political thought.
Rev. W. M. Young and DR.. Hughes honored
our morning exercises by their presence in
the recent past. We are always glad to
| welcome such staunch friends. and have
| vanity enough to feel elated over their words
Of cheer and praise.
The Delphians will meet in their regular
semi-monthly meeting Saturday night. A
very pleasant evening Is anticipated.
A visit to the latin recitation room OF Miss
Eleanor Dye will reveal the fact that her
pupils are not only taught to translate. but
they cling with familiarity to the old FASH
ioned method Of parsing, and are up-to-date
in latter day pronunciation. In keeping
sten 10 the newer order Of things Miss Dye
"swiugs through the shadow Of the globe in.
to the younger day." with enough hayseed
to eliminate all the modern superfuities, in.
cooperating only the best Of the old and
the new. Miss Dye Is gradually leaving the
impress of her strong. true wOManAOOd upOr
all the girls with whom she comes I'm clos'
contact. @
