PREMIERS OF ~" /,
AT FESTIVE BOARD
Y. w. c. A.. Cabinet Members
Enjoy Banquet.-Given in
Honor Of Visitors.
(From The spectator,)


Although the Y. w. c. A. Cabinet
Training Council was called off for
various reasons, we were all delight
Jed to have four representatives from
the University Of Alabama Y w. as
our visitors last week end. Even if
we had made the most elaborate
plans for their entertainment, the
schedule could not have been better
arranged, for the few days that they
were with us took in some of the
most enjoyable occasions of the year
The four girls, Marion Moore, Anita
Jones, Lucille Carr, Lois Smyer ar
rived Friday afternoon and of course
the Freshman play was the natural
thing for the evening. Since we all
had double chance to see it for our
selves, and since nothing could be adj
ded to what has already been said
there is no need of mentioning the re-
suits of this party.
A business meeting Of cur executive
and commissioned cabinets, together
with our guests, was held in Miss
Poindexter's studio Saturday from
twelve to one o'clock. At this time
the organization and methods of the
association on both campuses were
discussed and compared. All kinds
of suggestions were given regarding
the solution of the common problems
by different members of each group,
OF course the size of the organiZa-
tions is so widely different that our
system is much more complex than
theirs; but the ways and means of
doing things which they gave will be
of material benefit to US in our work |
next year.
Saturday evening the annual Y
w. G., A. Cabinet banquet was held,
with the advisory board, our Alabama
girls and Mr.. and Mrs. ]. c. Rowan
as guests. AS there are few M. S. c.
w. girls who would refuse eats, it
was poppy bunch which gathered
in the tea room at eight o'clock.
During the course Of the banquet,
IN which a color scheme Of green and
y hite was carried out in the clover
ST., ped place cards and the dainty I
courses, toasts were given by Jane
Elizabeth Bartee, Mrs.
Yerger, Marguerite Dacey and Ruth
Annie Lon Frances very
,harmingly presided as toast-mistress.
Naturally there were songs! Did
anyone ever see an M. S. G. w. girl
without a clever idea and plenty
spirit to back it? Well this occas-
on was no exception to the rule so
rom time to time the different guests
we're presented with energetic vocal
,fferings. After an hour and half
# fun, the party broke. up with the
Alma Mater song as a reminder of the
inship and loyalty between the out
'oing and incoming cabinets. OF
ourst there was a tiny note of re-
ret all the way through because
realized that the affair was
"how-do-you-do" and goodbye U
II in one; but the occasion could not !
ossibly be sad because everyone was t
l such high spirits. Il
Our visitors left us Sunday, much )
} our regret for we had fallen com
letely in love with them. Their en- c
hustasm and willingness specially 6
ere so noticeable that it was won u
erful Inspiration to have them with p

United states steel.

Steel common was watched with
great deal of interest by traders
throughout the session, because, al
though it was evident that pressure was
being directed against the stock during
the best part of the day, little progress
was made on the downward side and
the closing figure was only y under
Wednesdays final quotation. The pres
sure was sufficient, however, to pre-
vent the stock from rallying even frac-
tlonaly. as did some Independent steels
which had been sold SO heavily on
Wednesday. A trick of the traders IN
recent markets has been to leave Steel
common entirely alone right ND 10 the
end of a move and then TO turn sud
denly to that erstwhile market leader
and give 1t whirl one way or the
other in termina ting the movement.

The Importance of
Healthy Kidneys

In the removal of waste matter
from the body the kidneys are called
upon to perform a very important
duty. The failure of these marvellous
and delicately constructed organs to
properly do their work means reten-
ton in the system of poisonous matter.
This poisons the system, and if per-
mitted to remain results in severe
backache headache, torpid liver. con-
stipation and eventually Bright's dis
ease. Warmers Safe Kidney and
Liver Remedy a combination of herbs
and other healthful ingredients, was
discovered about so years ago, and
it's value in strengthening the kidneys
and liver was at once appreciated.
Today it stands as one Of the stand
ard remedies in the treatment of dis
eases of the kidneys and liver. Many
persons suffer from diseases OF the
kidneys unknowingly. The use of
Warmers Safe Kidney and Liver Rem
edy will invariably improve your health
and make you feel that life is really
worth the living.
