| A unique and pleasing feature Of
college life Is IN store for all in the
| form OF the harvest festival which Miss
Clara ]. Andersen, physical director
| for the women of Grinnell College is
planning fo- this fall to take the place
Of the usual May day festival. The
| harvest festival Is planned as moon
light affair to be given on the 22d Of
this month il the weather permits. 1r
case Of bad weather arrangements
have been made that it shall be given
in the Colonial Theater. The theme
| Of the pageant Is entirely new and Is
divided into two distinct parts. The
first part illustrates morning, noon and
night, symbolizing Nature In its birth.
youth and maturity, while the second
part pictr"es the festival at the queens
court in celebration Of the harvest. One
reason for the change from May day
/ to d i1a.-ve:t festival is because Miss
Andersen will not be with the college
the second semester. Instead she is
to take work along her line at, the
Columbia University. The folk dances,
so popular with all, will not be missing
at this harvest festival.
