N. Y. Times Reviews Book By Dr. Wynne The New York Times Book Review gives us an idea of the true value of Dr. Wynne's latest book. (Reprint from the New York Times, May 13. 1934): The Learning -Teaching Unit By John P Wynne Here is a book that teachers everywhere are looking for. Within the scope of a few pages it contains the principles governing unit instruction; techniques by units; methods to be observed in planning units and procedures to be followed in reporting and evaluating units. This is perhaps the most useful publication that has yet appeared for the guidance of teachers interested in unit teaching. It should also be very useful for curriculum workers who are developing courses of study. It is authoritative, non-technical, defnite, and practical

The artist group will be the honor group In the club. Members of the Dance Club, who show unusual ability will be asked to Join this group.

Y.W. Set-up Conference Meets At Longwood The Y. W. cabinet held its annual set-up conference at Longwood on Thursday, May 17. The purpose of this conference is to make plans for the work of the Y. W. C. A. during the coming year. In the past these conferences have been held in the fall as soon after returning to school as possible. It is believed that the cabinet decided wisely in holding their conference this spring because now work can be carried on effectively and without delay the day school opens, and also because advice could be secured from the old cabinet, many of whom will be gonenext fall. At the regular cabinet meeting on Wednesday the plans of each committee were presented to the cabinet and criticized and corrected. These plans were then rewritten and presented to the advisory board at the conference on Thursday. All the plans are, of course, tentative and subject to change by the committee chairmen; but to have a definite goal towards which to work gives each committee a feeling of stability and responsibility. After the business part of the conference was over, each cabinet member was given a few minutes to talk with and become acquainted with her adviser. Then followed a most delightful informal dinner party served in the tea room. Everyone present seemed to have enjoyed a beneficial and pleasant evening.

ALUMNAE NEWS We are sorry to report that Miss Pauline Camper, president of the State Alumnae Association, is in the hospital in Roanoke for treatment. We are hoping she will be back in school very soon now. On Saturday afternoon, May 19, j Dr. Jarman, Miss Jennie Tabb, Louise Hyde, Doris Eley and Nancy B"ard went to Amherst for an in- ] teresting meeting of the alumnae i chapter there. The meeting was | held in the Parish House after which refreshments were served at the home of Mary Gregory, president of the chapter. A unique featuie of the entertainment was that Master Joe Glick. the two-and-a- j half year son of one of the alumnae . was placed on a table and sang. "What's the Matter with Jarman?" , Amherst has a small chapter but; the fact that eleven of the thirteen members were present is indicative of real interest.

"I Must Down To The Seas Again." SEA-FEVER I must down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky. And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by. And the wheels kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking. And a gray mist on the sea's face and a gray dawn breaking. I must down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied: And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds Hying. And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.

Social s i.

"Pupils" in Sin* Make Interesting Discoveries A very amusing and enjoyable program was presented at Sing in the auditorium last Saturday night. Laeta Barhiim was the teacher, who tried to teach her pupils, Margaret Herndon. Bonnie Lane, Elise Marshburn, and Blanche Kahn, about some great men, who had made Import a nt discoveries. "Einstein." said Muss Barham, discovered his own theory." At the conclusion of the class period, the teacher told the pupils to make some discoveries of their own. and to be able to tell the class, the next day, what discoveries they had made. When Miss Barham called on her class for discoveries, the following were given: Margaret Herndon discovered that Madeline McCummins could really handle a piano, and Madeline proved that Margaret's discovery was correct. Elise Marshburn discovered that Gay Steiffen was a swell dancer, and Gay showed the audience that Elise was right. The last but \ not least discovery was that it was time for lunch. No sooner had Blanche Kahn stated this, than the teacher and pupils had risen from their seats and were dashing off for lunch.

Several social affairs are being planned as a part of the program for commencement at Farmville S. T. C. The exercises which will begin on June 2 and will continue through June 5 will close the fiftieth session of our school.

SENIOR CLASS GIVES PARTTTO LITTLE SISTERS

Main Street. Opposite Poatofflce On Monday night. May 21, at ten PHONE 08 o'clock the seniors gave their little sisters a party on the Senior Building campus. Each senior brought a small gift for her little sister. Miss Bedford, sophomore class man. Mr. McCorkle, senior class man, and TAILOR Mrs. McCorkle were guests of honor.

Y. W. C. A. NOTES Membership and Alumnae Committee The membership and alumnae committee of the Y. W. C. A. is composed of the following: Miss Stubbs, adviser; Katharine Walton, chairman; Anne Irving, Lena Mac Gardner, Jessica Jones, Florence Tankard. Ohpelia Booker, Elizabeth Walton. Polly Ware, Victoria Gillette and Dot Price. The purpose of this committee is to secure new members (freshmen* and to keep in touch with former members < alumnae*. This spring the committee has written one hundred letters to alumnae describing May Day and inviting them to return for commencement. The committee also sees all the graduating sophomores and seniors and asks them to sign their alumnae membership cards. If they sign these, it obligates them in no way—it merely means that they will receive letters from the committee next year. If any girl wishes to pay her alumnae dues of $1.00 a year, she will receive letters for two years. The membership committee has charge of assigning "little sisters" and welcoming the freshmen next fall. A "little sister" paper has been posted on the bulletin board so thar the upper classmen could sign for their "little sister". They will be notified during the summer as to who their "little sisters" are. The cabinet has been asked to write letters this summer to the freshmen. The membership committee will return to school a day early next fall to welcome the freshmen. They will be assisted by the Freshman Counsellor iT.d the Freshmen Commission. THE SING COMMITTEE The Sing Committee is composed of the following girls: Elizabeth Huse. Katheryn Switezer. Gay Steiffen. Margaret Farrar, Dorothy Justis. Charlotte Rice, Hazel Smith, with Mr. French as advisor. The Sing Committee presents, each Saturday night, a short program. These programs are informal and are amusing. Life, activities and the talents of S. T. C. girls are used as themes. For the coming year the Sing Committee has made many plans. It hopes to have more girls taking part in the skits; we have more organizations interested in giving them.

The same courage that caused Jenifer to love Jim caused her to hate him, then later to love and marry him. The first time she met him he saved her from a bandit and didn't ask her name. The second time he rescued her from a frozen death in the Alps. To the world he was Fenton Trafford. the play wright; to her he was just Jim Trafford. her beloved. Then one day a man with revenge in his heart told her an accident of the past and she sent him away as a coward. It was Jim who had let Denny, a very dear friend of her and her father, die a horrible death in the lake. The author solves the problem by showing that there are times when a man should not risk his life for others. By this one incident the sadness and bitterness, the gloom and sadness that had darkened their way faded into the air.

MEMOIRS Into my heart's memory I slipped a sweet thought That cannot be taken Nor can it be bought. Oh, better than flattery From false, would-be friends. Is the safe-kept memory Of a lovely thing. M. K. P.. I always fly Into a rage When some dame chatters, "Be your age."
