A most appreciative audience greet ed the Syrian princess, Rhame Haider, Saturday night, when she presented the first of her series of lectures, "Glimpses of Palestine" at Central College auditorium, and again on Sun- day night, in spite of the downpour, the auditorium of the First Baptist church was filled to it's capacity to hear Princess Rhame on her thrilling message, Under Syrian Stars" Per haps never before have the manners, ideals and customs of the people of that historic land been so vividly DOT trayed before a Conway audience.
 Princess Rhame was garbed in the robes of her royal house and painted a graphic picture of the land of Syria-her native home. She gave comprehensive survey of the Holy Land, correcting numerous false inn pressions that have been current as to the Syria of today. She dwelt upon the scenery, climate, productiveness and people, making vast distinction between the Ishmaelites, Turks and her own people-the pure Semitic.
 The princess has charming person. ality, clear and logical mind, mem ory filled with historical facts and the highest tribute of all in a public speaker, a heart filled to overflowing with her subject. While here Princess Rhame and Miss Burgess, her com panion, have been guests of Central College.
