believe in Sewanee with all nv
heart. I do not know Of any insti-
tuition of higher learning in any
part Of our country which has done
more for the cause of good citizen
ship than SeWanee has done for it
1t Is entitled The University of the
South but 1t is much more than
that. 1t is a university of all Amer
lca-and its welfare should be dear
to all Americans who are both patri-
otlc and far-sighted, and therefore
anxious to see every influence
strengthened which tends for the
betterment and enlightenment OF
our common country"
Owned by % dioceses of the Prot
estant Episcopal Church, Sewanee
comprises a College of Liberal Arts
and a Divinity School, wherein the
honor system is proudly observed.
All of Sewanee's residence halls
are equipped with dining facilities
but for the development of COM
munity spirit, all meals are served
either at Tuckaway or at Magnolia
Commons.
Professors invariably conduct
their classes in their academic robes
SeWanee's student Order of the
GoWnsmen Is unique in American
college life. Graduate students and
upper classmen enjoying superior
academic rating wear the Oxford
cap and gown and are formed by
the faculties of the university into
what is known as the Order of the
Gownsmen. This group enjoys Ger.
tain rights and immunities and is q
strong factor in formulating student
government policies.
According to policy which has
prevailed since the earliest DAYS OF
the university, all professors and
their wives at Sewanee hold oper
house every Sunday evening, stu.
dents making the rounds between
the various faculty homes.

Hilarious Gathering.
We got out of the car and pro-

crowd of more than 200 people
swarmed about us blocking traffic
The soldiers hilariously posed, and
hovered about us giving their ad-
dresses and begging us to send

Suddenly pompous little off,

Similar incidents bare Italians to

that they form the backdrop be-
