SERVICES
An impressive service took place Monday evening in the auditorium when the officers and members of the new student committee were Riven the oath <>i office. A speaker from the I niversit) ol Virginia came down for the occasion and Rave a most interesl and instructive talk on the origin ol The Honor System. Through his straightforward message new light was shed upon the work "honor" and each member of the student body was made i" feel her nun responsibility toward perfecting the Honor System at S. T. * . \t the conclusion of a farewell address by Helen Miller, the outgoing president ol Student Government, Kate Trent was presented with the cap and gown of the retiring officer, as an emblem of her own position as president. After a speech of acceptance, the new president gave the oath ">i office tn the remainder of those w ho arc to sen e on the Student i 'ommittee, 1925-1926. The members are:— Pn -. Kate Trent. ierl rude Quinn. Secretary—Ida Hill. Treasurer—Mar) Ruth Winn. Campus League Chairman—Fannie Rowe Brown, Firsl Prof Rep Poll) Stallard. Senior Rep.—Clara Thopson, Mary . i iladys Moss. Junior Rep.—Bettj Hopkins, Margaret Cobb, Harriett Foster, Soph. Rep.-Virginia Ellis, Greenhowe Parker, Elizabeth Woodson, Dorothy Mattox, Maxine Lucas, Louise i oston, Alice Page Adams. At the conclusion of the installation of committee members, Dr. Jarman e us a wonderful surprise. Nothing could thrill an S. T. ('. girl more than a solo by our president and when we realized that we were t<> be favi with a song, the applause was proof enough that we wouldn't have missed such an opportunity. The services were concluded with the singing of "Alma Mater" by thi: •.indent body. DR. DYLR SPEAKS IN CHAPEL I lr, I >j' r, of Vanderbilt 1 'niversity, spoke in chapel Thursday morning. Ili- talk concerning some of the social and industrial problems of today, proved very instructive to the audience. The great and constant exodus from the country to the city, Dr. Dyer stated, was mainly responsible for the pres ent iudustrial and social difficulties. Our ideal- concerning life in the home have grown evidently different from those of America's foremost pioneers. The high cost HI living and divorce, have resulted from the closer contacts ol families. Dr. Dyer argued in conclusion, that the purpose of education is tn produce teachers, leaders, who \.ill help the masses to analyze and squarely face their problems.

THE ROTUNDA SOME OF OUR LEADERS. Lucile Walton Lucille's career in school has been ;i since-- from star! to finish. What she attempts, she not only do» -. but does well. The work she has done this year as editor of the Rotunda, has been beyond criticism. Only those who have worked with Lucille, can undernd jusl how great ;i success her work has been, for they only know the many difficulties against which she lias had to labor. Lucille lia> entered into everj branch of schi ill life. Sin- has served on the Y. \\. C. A., she lias been a member of the Student Standards Committee and athletics have also held her ini Test. When Lucille leaves Farmville, she will leave behind her a vacancy which will IT hard in till ami an en. I!I i 11 cord HI' which -In- may well be i>ron<l.

The following year, she was re-elected and her tun years in this capacity have been unusually successful and fruitful She introduced the singing of the Student <i"\ . rnment pledge and the self-reporting system in our college and many phases n! the Student Government Association have rospered under her leadership. At the conference nt' the Southei ii Inter-Collegiate Association of Student Governent held in Columbus, Miss., >he was elected secretary of the 1 Ktenshm Work of this organization m Virginia and her efforts and work in this behalf, have been voluminous am! admirable and instrumental in getting Student Government and the Honor System established throughout all the schools of the State.
