Spring Holidays Last Four Days Easter Sping holidays will begin April 17, after classes, and extend throgh April 21. Students are required to return to school Monday to begin classes Tuesday morning.

Among; Our Caps and Gowns Lena Mac Gardner
Courtesy News Leader It would take a long list of our most choice adjectives to do justice to Lena Mac. and it will be necessary to limit ourselves to a few of them. To say that someone is capable, conscientious, and dependable is a very high compliment, but "Mac" is even more, for she possesses all of those
finer traits of character which we all admire. Since she was a freshman here. Lena has worked faithfully and steadily with and for her class, and now as a senior she stands high in the regard of us all. By electing her their vice-president, a senior chaperone. and one of the ten most outstanding seniors, the class was able to express a little of their appreciation and respect for her. Not limiting herself to class work, "Mac" has done fine work in the Dramatic Club, on the Rotunda Staff, on Y. W. C. A. committees, and now we find her a member of Alpha Kappa Gamma, honorary fraternity for leadership. At the present Lena Mac is writing the theme for May Day. and we are sure that she will be quite up to standard in this field. To you. "Mac." we say sincere wishes for those things we know will be yours—success and happiness.
Rotunda Reverberations Chatham and Gretna Alumnae 1 tit. ■''!. Mill (I
The Chatham and Gretna alumnae were delightfully entertained at tea by Mary Shelton and Elizabeth Hendricks on Wednesday. March 13, at Mrs. Marshall's home in Chatham. The Chatham chapter, which includes the alumnae from Gretna. was almost one hundred per cent present and very enthusiastic. The chapter had as their guests from Farmville Miss Leola Wheeler and Jane Royall. who told them about the recent happenings at the College. Halifax Alumnae Have Informal Meeting The alumnae of Halifax County Chapter had an informal meeting on Thursday evening. March 14, with Mrs. J. C. Harris in South Boston. The chapter enjoyed the recent news and pictures of Parmville that were brought to them by Miss Wheeler and Jane Royall, who met with them. "Interest in Art Increases" "Interest in art among the high school pupils has increased," states Miss Marjorie Goodwyn. a Farmville graduate, who is director in the Art Department at the Thomas Jefferson High School in Richmond. About 12 per cent of the student body is enrolled in the art classes, which is a comparatively high percent. This increase is probably due to the fact that the conducive and pleasant surroundings are prevalent and that such a variety of courses is offered.
Review of the News

Along with Hitler's scrapping of the Versailles Treaty came his announcement of an army to be raised, 500,000 strong; diplomatic circles answered his decree with flurries of alarm. This is the way the various governments reacted: 1. Great Britain protested very vigorously that the rearmament of Germany threatened peace In Europe. 2. Prance and Italy perceived that they could do nothing to help the situation, and concerted action was held in obeyance. 3. The United States can, of course, say and do nothing as she is not an lgnatory power of the treaty. Germany maintains, however, that she is willing to talk peace wtih England and may consider the discussion of the AngloFrench system. Sir John Simon, England's able representative to this conference scheduled In Berlin, was on his way to that city at the time the decision of the secret cabinet meeting was announced. As all parties are willing, negotiations for peace settlement will continue, but It is evident on all sides that it will probably go the way of all conferences on the sub

MUSIC IN THE AIR
we hear that the only way one gentleman from the West could quiet them down was to get out the old revolver and show that he meant business. Now, we have heard that at one time shooting was rather prevalent at Virginia. Long ago it was no oddity at all to see a student shoot out the lights before going to bed. Even further back than that a military unit was installed here — shouts and squeals from the R. O. T. C. tappers—and on several occasions the students demonstrated that "straight from the hip" meant more than it means even today. All this, however, was long ago. remaps the gentlemen who live in this particular dor.n did not suspect that there was a pistol on uie campus. Recently they discovered their mistake. They insisted upon exorcizing the son of Adam. or. in the vulgar phrase, raising Cain after being told by one of their number that he wished to study. They did not realize that one student in their midst had come to the University from way out west and probably had cowboy instincts. They soon found this out when he faced them boldly, revolver in hand. He fired into the air, looked significantly at the gun and went back to his room to study. From then on he found ideal studying conditions.
