•WHERE SAVINGS ARE GREATEST"
Dear Mother Night whose sheltering
arms shall fold
About us weary and folorn
And soothe and all our doubting fears
allay.
U/>e Dunson Mills
March, 1927
How sweet that darkeness dims the
ugly line
To beauty, makes our world anew
And whispers to the aching soul again:
'"Tis time to rest, dear Earth-child
mine, to rest;
So lay thy tired soul on mine
A while and sleep, my strength shall
thine renew.
"When dawn again the sky ignites
with gold,
Thou shalt go forth, but now awhile,
Nepenthe, hide thy bleeding heart in
Night."
—Nelle Childs, '27.

Saturday and
Other Days
A friend told why she liked to shop at our Store on
Saturday: "I am sure to meet many of rny friends."
"However," she continued, "nowadays I find two or three
of them on any other day."
The homey atmosphere of a popular Store like this adds
as much to the enjoyment of shopping as do the many
attractive displays of goods and the large savings.
If you like to take plenty of time for shopping a visit
to this Store during the week offers an advantage. One
then never feels that other customers are kept waiting.
This is your Store every day.
GRADUATION RECITAL
The first of the Senior recitals was that of Miss Mabel
White, piano, assisted by Miss
Rita Victorio Brenan, voice, given Friday evening, March 4, in
the college auditorium.
An unusual setting for the occasion was furnished by the
stage, which was beautifully
decorated with carnations, snapdragons and ferns.
Miss White wore a soft flesh
crepe dress, and Miss Brenan
wore a beautiful peach colored
crepe dress and sliver slippers.
The following enjoyable program was rendered:

MRS. MacDOWELL TO
APPEAR IN RECITAL
Mrs. Edward MacDowell, wife
of the well known American music composer, will appear in piano and lecture recital at the college auditorium March 18. We
are exceedingly fortunate in
having such an excellent person
as she is said to be, and it was
through the unceasing efforts of
Miss Brownlee and Miss Muller
and the co-operation of the student body that her consent to
come here was finally obtained.
It is said that she displays exquisite understanding, remarkable expression and command of
technique. So it is with much
interest that her coming is being looked forward to.
