Miss Jennie Masters Tabb Is Speaker For Founders Day Exercises Saturday Alumna For Many Years Speaks On the Past History and Ideals of Our College to YEARS AFTER IS SUBJECT A high point in the Founder's Day celebration was the address given by Miss Jennie Masters Tabb of the class of 1893 on the subject "Forty Years After." No one is better qualified to speak with authority on the past history and ideals cf the State Teachers College. As a loyal alumna Since 1893. as Secretary to President and as Registrar for twenty-nine years, she knows the college and ist life in all its aspects. Holding what would be accounted two full time positions, she has yet found time for the cultivation of many other interests. She has a most contagious zest for all sorts of recreations—games, fancy work, radio programs, movies. When vacation time comes, she is oif to the Magnolia Gardens In Charleston or to the Pacific Coast, perhaps. Between times, she finds delight in music, in art, in literature in singing, painting, reading, writing. She has written the history of the college, "Alma Mater," published in 1929; she is the author also of our Alma Mater song, and of many other songs and lyrics, some of the most chaiming of which are found in her collection, "For You." In her life of her uncle, John Bannister Tabb, entitled "The Life and Works of Father Tabb," she has written with a rare combination of affection, restraint, and sound discrimination what is conceded to be the most authentic and best biography of that beloved poet. At the present time Miss Tabb is an associate editor of the Bulletin of the American Association of Collegiate Registrars, and was recently Chairman of the Teachers College Section of the Association. She organized the Association of Virginia (Continued on page 5>

Coyner leported several books purchased for the Portia Lee Morrison Memorial Library and a balance on hand of $186.40. Dr. Jarman reported for the Cunningham Memorial Fund a balance on hand of $71.25, with student notes held for $2495.40. Dr. Jarman welcomed the returning alumnae and spoke intere.vtingly to them of the great value of the student loan funds both on and off the campus. The Mu Omega Sorority and the Alpha Phi Sigma Fraternity lere and some chapters in the State are now helping students, but in the next few years more calls for loans will be made than ever before and ess money will be available. He closed with the inspirational maxim that faith is the only thing necessary for tarting a fund. Misses Pauline Camper and Virginia Potts were delegates to the meetlng of the Third District of the National Alumnae Secretaries' Association held in Durham in February. They had much of interest to relate, such as the practice of local chapters of holding reunions at home on Founders Day; fees for the privilege of securing local chapter charters; election of permanent officers for senior classes just before graduation; the sale of commemorative Alma Mater plates to the alumnae; the Hollins College plan for an Alumnae A.ivuory Committee with representatives from administration, faculty, .students and alumnae. After some discussion of the last two ideas, it was voted that they be submitted to the Executive Board for study and action.

A most unique ami attractivefeature of this year's Founder's Day at S. T. C. was the program given in the auditorium at 10:30 Saturday morning. Following the singing of the "Alma Mater", the dance students of Mrs. Louise Robertson Fit/.patrick and the college orche-tra under the direction of Miss Lisbeth Purriom gave a
dance-orchestra recital.
Dr. Jarman Sends Reunion Classes Message to Alumnae of 1933 Meet Dear Girls: Another Founder's Day has come and gone and I don't think we ever had a more enjoyable one.

Founder'!

This year we reduced the debt on the Student Building by about one thousand dollars—which was good for "these perilous times." but we hope that as a thank offering for fifty years of service on the part of the college, we will have a large amount next year to pay on this indebtedness. We were glad to see everyone who was with us and misled all those who did not come. Wishing for all of you a happy year, and looking forward to having can theory and practice ever be you celebrate with us next March, I brought face to face.

This recital, beautifully presented, sh' wed the results of much work and planning. The motions of the dancers accompanied by the orchestra held the attention of the audience from beginning to end. The dancers in appropriate costumes, "In the Gay Nineties" received especially hearty applause. Another feature of the morning program following the dance archesi tra recital was the greetings extended ' from various alumnae chapters, some of which had sent telegrams and other messages. In the form of a tableau the student organizations in school presented their contributions to Dr. Jarman for the Student Building Fund. This presentation was considered one of the best performances of its kind ever given here on Founder's Day. In contrast to the regular skits and stunts which have formerly been given on Founder's Day each organization was represented by some one dressed iir characteristic costume, all of whom together made a picture. Dr. Jarman's response to the greetings was sincere and interesting. "Onward Farmville." sung by the alumnae, students, and faculty, concluded the program of the morning.
Summer Quarter To Have Changes Contrary to our usual custom, this year all work offered in the summer quarter will be completed in one term of the quarter all daily classes for the first or second term. The work of the two-year courses in primary and grammar grades will be offered together with a large number of cour.-es in the third and fourth years of these courses and also In that leading to teaching in the high school. The courses offered are listed in the catalogue: if others are desired, and there is sufficient demand for them they will be given. Therefore, if the alumnae who are expecting to be with us this summer for advanced work will put in their request for certain courses early, arrangements will be made for them to be given iupon sufficient demand*, The Regisliar should be notified as soon as possible as to these courses. In the last two years there has been a lari'c increase in the number of students taking advanced (junior and senior » work in the summer and a number complete the requirements for the degree during this quarter. Last summer our Training School enrollment was the largest we have ever had for a summer term. Certificate requirements are beuig Constantly raised in the State and all who can are urged to take the summer work and be ready to meet these requirements when the time comes for further change.

IF-ONLYS If only the world had been made of candy, perhaps we could live in celophane houses. If money only grew on trees there would no longer be a depression — probably there would have been one. But if money grew on trees, we might not have the excellent fruit that we do have. If the Streets were made of candy, we would not have such a craving for sweetmeats. How many times wo say. "If only I could etc."! There are so many postponed actions built on IF. We often catch ourselves saying, "If only I could draw." "If only I could write poetry," or "If only I were—" someone else. Would we be better off? Would we not still be wishing we were gifted in another way? This "Ifmv." does in t get us anywhere becaUBC it is only dreaming.

The last term of the school year 1932-33 will begin Saturday, March 18. With the beginning of this term comes the opportunity for many to do the things which have been neged in the past. Now is the time to begin work for the spring quarter and not June. We should profit by OUT mistakes and do better in the future. The spring quarter is crowded full of extra activities which makes it doubly necessary for everyone to keep his work up to date and willing to cooperate in putting across all events scheduled. During the week following Easter, the Music Federation will be May Day which requires a great deal of work and cooperation from every one in the .student body and faculty. Plans for commencement will soon be made and work on them will be begun. All of these events and possibly others will be attended by visitors from all parts of the state. They give the students an excellent opportunity to receive training in worthwhile activities other than those along the academic line.

Alumnae Chapters Send Greetings & Gifts to President A high degree of interest and enthusiasm was manifested by the representatives bringing greetings from the alumnae chapters. Mrs. E. R. Booker <Jesie Whitmore), president of the Parmville chapter, presented to Dr. Jaiman a potato which had already some dollar, i as sprouts, and advised him to plant it in order to raise more potatoes of the same kind.

Miss Lucy Anne Lane was the .spokesman for the Powhatan alumnae present and absent. A chapter there may be the next one.

FOUNDER'S DAY BRINGS NEWS OF ALUMNAE Such enthusiasm! The alumnae committee of the Y. W. C. A., dressed in white awaited the coming of the alumnae. There was a table in the Rotunda decorated in blue and white, which held, not only a register for the quests, but a file of the annuals dating from 1900. "Let me show you my picture when I graduated." "Look at the funny way we used to fix our hair," "And those bloomers—do you remember the first time we ever wore them playing basketball? We had a time doing away with the skirts." "Do you remember Virginia Tinsley and Mary Ford and the midnight feasts?"—and so, far into the night ran the conversations while returning alumnae were registering for their rooms.

Happenings at S. T. C. Related
On the evening of February 10. the College Choir's bn adcast from WRVA Richmond. Virginia, was clearly and distinctly heard by alumnae in fifteen states. The range of distribution was interesting: as far north as New Yoik. to Florida in the South, a far west as Missouri, to Accomac County, Virginia, in the East. Over a hundred of the alumnae re-ponded to the broadcast, showing their great enthusiasm. Just a few of their comments are as follows: "I have been longing to return to larmville. but that longing has been -o intensified that I aan determined to visit my Alma Mater if I can possibly make reasonable connections and plans. I will "Keep on Hoping" to see you this spring."

"Dr. Jarman's 'Perfect Day' brought back memories of the best old school in the world." "Whenever Farmville goes on the air again I hope you'll let me know, as you did this time, for I surely was thrilled to be able to 'listen in'!" "I hope that sometime I may be able to visit by Alma Mater and renew old friendships and scenes, which I shall never forget." "Dr. Jarman sounded just like he did when I was there nineteen years ago." "I am always interested in the activities of S. T. C. and I thank you for the anouncement. 'Farmville on the Air". I shall be with them in thought and in the spirit of Alma Mater." "Your voices brought back very pleasant memories of the days spent at Farmville." •Dr. Jarman's voice still sounded like an angel singing in Paradise."

"I wish Farmville could broadcast more often and the Alumnae could always know when to listen in. I'm sure the girls everywhere stopped to listen to their Alma Mater's program."

I'u last Founder'! and the one we have just celebrate h it been noted for outevents, but the College community has KOI i :ly on its way. Dr. Jaiman has been in atendance at the Usual number of educational '"" n variou.- commitind taking pail in many conferences in Richmond and elsewhere. Oi e of his most appreciated servlci to College was ;i delightful music re. cital under the auspices of the ColChoir and Choral Club, at which he sang lo us even more effectively than in the previous yean of his sliming history. The publication of the Training School Course of Study for the primary grades has been a notable evement for the College. Both College and Training school faculty participated in its making and favorable opinions have been received from many educators m regard to it. Dr. Wynne has published a syllabus called "Modern Theories of the Educative Process." Mi.-s Peck's monoiiPh. Teaching History in High School,' is just off the press. Articles by members of the faculty have appeared in the Virginia Journal of Education and other magazines. Dr. Walmsley has published articles in > he Virginia Teacher and in The Dictionary of American Biography. We have distinguished ourselves in both athletics and debate. The Farmville basketball team has been the winner in all the competitive games, playing Sweet Briar. Richmond Noimal. William and Mary, Black •tone ami Ilarnsonbarg. The debate teams wan four out of seven intercollegiate debates this year, and have three more scheduled. The national honor debating society. Pi Kappa Delia, gives several degrees for men! in debate. Margaret Hix and Carrie De Shazo have won seven out of i Ight debates in three years and each has received the jewel which is the national society's highest award for such an achievement. The first and the last two of these debates were won away from the College, the others here. The Dramatic Club play. The Dover Road," was as usual most successful, and again Hainpden-Sydney boys played with our .•ills. The College Choir has given sacred concerts on Sunday nights in Lynchburg. Danville and Petersburg, with the assistance of Dr. Jaiman and others. The .>even honor societies have been given a room on the second floor of the Student Building, and they have furnished it very artistically and appropriately by coperating and apportioning the cost to the parlous groups. One of the new features of student life has been Student Day". Each Wednesday a representative of the Btudent body conducts the chapel exercise" and a committee of the students plan ilie topic for the day and invites the speaker. Often the faculty are invited but sometimes the student meet by themselves on this one day of tlie week. Anolher addition to the students' social life has been the opening of the lovely cabin at Longwood—the gilt of the graduating classes of two yean ago. Here picnics and Impromptu suppers may take place and the huge open fireplace makes it available even on winter days. Many of the alumnae have listened to broadcasts given by the College Choir from the station WRVA in Richmond, The voice of Dr. Jaiman linglng "The End of a Perfect Day" was recently heard by many in Virginia.

ALUMNAE AND FACULTY
The Social Committee of the Y. W. C. A. entertained at "Open House" on Saturday evening for the alumnae, faculty members, and visitors. A blazing fire radiated warmth and cheer. Punch and cakes were served. Miss Jennings. Frances Radcliffe and Winston Cobb received the
guests. An opportunity was thus given alumnae to see other alumnae, who in the rush of other activities had "missed" each other. This "Open Hou^e" seemed a fitting close for a successful Founder's Day.
FORMAL DINNER GIVEN SATURDAY NIGHT A brilliant formal dinner was given Saturday night in the dining room for the student body, faculty, and alumnae. The latter were here for the Pounder's Day program. This dinner is one of the annual occasions of the year at which our president, membeis of the home department and business Office, and all the faculty are present. Everyone looked his best. The dining room was decorated with tulips on every table and these tulips blending in with the many shades of the evening dresses made a beautiful sight. Music played by the college orchestra was quite a treat and a
surprise, THE ALUMNAE LUNCHEON The annual alumnae luncheon was held at Longwood on Founder's Day with an attendance of seventy-five. As the Rotunda goes to press it is hard to imagine that huge log fires were necessary on March 11. In spite of the cold outside the Japanese Japonica and Spirea, used in the house for decorative purposes, evidenced the fact that spring was on its way. A delightful hour was spent in the renewing of old acquaintances and the making ol new ones. This was the Hist oportunity "the old girls" had had to see each other.
Virginia Rembert was asked to take the part of a farmer in a college production and she said. "I can't because I haven't got a hoe." Co-eds at Syracuse University, finding themselves going almost entirely without dates, are formulating plans for the "stimulation" of dates with their brother students.
The Membership Committee of the Y. W. C. A. played an important role in the Pounder's Day celebration. They kept a table in the Rotunda and registered the alumnae. They had on th" table all the annuals since Dr. Jarman's administration. The students as well as the alumnae had a lot of fun looking at the annuals. The committee made welcome cards and put them in the rooms in which the alumnae stayed. They made tours with the alumnae over the buildings and campus. Their services had a large part in making our Pounder's Day the success that it was.
ALUMNAE CHAPTERS SEND GIFTS AND LETTERS
