were played. The guests were enter-

Music and fun was"the keynote at
an informal Valentine party given by
Mary Burks at' heiv home, 3283
Hemphill, Monday evening, Feb. 13.
-Festoons of the Valentine color,
red. with a shower of hearts sus-
pended from them gaily decorated
the rooms. "From the chandefier*in
each room hung a fringe of streamers
and small red hearts. Above the
fireplace was placed a large satin
heart flanked on each side by tall
black candles in red candle holders.
Gayly fluttering red streamers in the
archway between'the living room and
dining room made a very novel por-
tiei\ Placed about the rooms were
heart-shaped posters naming some of
the laws to be obeyed during the eve-
ning as designated by Dan Cupid.
Refreshments, consisting of fruit
punch, hear-shaped sandwiches and
cakes served in heart dishes, and Val-
entine candies were served as a buf-
fet supper. Bright red balloons danc-
ing gaily in the air caught the frolic-
some gleam of red candles on each
side of the punch bowl and reflected
a myriad of lights throughout the
room.
Musifc furnished by a negro orches-
tra formed the diversion of the eve-
ing, and favors of hearts with the
name of each guest upon them and
carnival caps were given to the eight,
couples present.
The guests included: Misses Ger-
trude Spearman, Ruby Mall a r d,
Grayce Wiley, Carmen Ford, Margar-
et O'Donnell, Catherine Ilornbcck,
Josephine Taylor, and Mary Burks;
Messrs. James Harper, Charles Ryan,
lames Ryan, J. W. Lambfcrt, D. C

Music with all its fairy enchant
mcnt is a wonderful art. It can
carry one into the highest of ecsta-
cies and in an instant plunge one
into depths where happy hearts are
never known to trod. Its magic
power far exceeds the Egyptian
magician.
From the masters bow wpring
jealous pangs, fury, frantic, indigna
tion, depth of pain, afPri height of
passion; or if 'twill better please
his mood, a theme of melancholy
he weaves, and from his soul pours
forth^hisi philosophy , of life.
The piJHio's^ivory keys, clear, pul'i
and simple toned, may be trans
formed into a living picture by thi;
touch of the artists hnnd. „
That divinely made instrument, the
human vocal frame, can express, in
understanding words, comfort to -all
mankind, and is the more' natural
expression of the overflowing joys
and sorrows of the human heart in
music. ;■ .
"And oh! What art can teach,
what human voice can reach the
sacred organ's praise? Notesin-
spiring holy love, notes that wing
their heavenly ways to mend the
choirs above."

.'ihe Boa?.-Ann game was. certain*.
I.v what Priss calls a "cbrker." In
the first quarter everybody thought
Ann was going,to win. In the sec-
ond quarter everybody changed her
mind and decided that Boa*& would
win. Then in the last quarter Ann
came out with flying colors and
left Boaz "holding the sack."
During the first half the game
was so slow it was almost at a
standstill. But in the second half,
particularly in the last quarter, it
gathered speed,' However, in one
way it remained constant—it was
pretty rough all the way through.
Ball and Ward, running centers, al-
most played football. ' Once Ward
actually tackled her opponent around
the knees. Ball succeeded in dodg-
ing her pretty well, though most of
the time.
Priss nearly went into hysterics
laughing when Stallworth, the ref-
eree, called "Time! Sit down on
the floor!" As if the teams didn't
know they could sit down on it.
Berry was one of the best forwards
in the bunch. Besides playing for-
ward, she played comedian. Priss
said she was glad the ball couldn't
see the faces1 Bewy made at it or
it would have gone flatter than ever.
When she made a goal, Berry was
quite demonstratively happy, wring-
ing her hands, grinning and juicing
up and down, poss, who was high-
point forward -for Boaz, acted just
the opposite, assuming a very
solemn, serious air when she rung
a goal. If her trousers had not
been so tight, she would have look-
ed dignified "Ss a senior. Some play-
er£ will persist as lovers of croquet.
Brown, guard for Ann, mistook Ball's
legs for a wicket, and sent the ball
through without touching. PVess said,
it was not really Brown's fault-
Ball shouldn't have such small legs.
One of those Wilson twins went
in as center in the third quarter.
Her height and enthusiasm added
new pep to the situation. The root-
ers actually began yelling as though
they meant it, in the fourth quarter.
But Berry got knocked out and
things quieted down a little after
that.
Priss said she didn't want to see
the Ann-P. C. C. game because she
already knew who would beat. She
said there wouldn't be any thrills
of wondering who would win. Her
prediction was right,"although the
game was a good one. Wonder how
Mulkey and P. C. C. will come out
next week ?

Library Workers
Check Out Books
' - j
Library flssistants of Texas Wom-
an's College have many and varied
experiences working in the library
from (1 to 12 hours; a week. The
m'(/«t„ inte^'stipg hour's of the day
are from 2 until .1:30 o'clock in the
afternoons, when the library tables
are heaped high with books, the
chairs iwa drawn closely to the
tables and many girts study dili-
gently and quietly" except for an
occasional conversation followed by
a few giggles.
Then the longed-for 3:15 arrives
and the serenity in the library is
broken by the constant turning of
leaves, closing of 'notebooks, girls
rising clumsily from the table*,
scraping harshly the chairs against
the l'loot. They rush madly to the
desk to cheek out their reserved
books for the night.
Again Miss Walton has to say,
"Girls, get in line, don't push."
A girl hands an armful of books
upside down to the assistant li-
brarian and says, "Could you tell
me where I could find something on
'Women in Politics,' for my term
theme ?"
The ones at the other end of the
line give a push nad the combined
voices seem to say, "Gee! hurry
up: we got to go to Poly."
The assistant "'St the desk is ovcr-
Fairchild, literary critic, head of
English department, University of
Missouri; Marian • Dyer Myers, na-
tional adviser Theta Sigma Plri,
Chicago; R. If. Melangton, the
David Molloy Company, Chicago,
and Prof. Herbert L. Hughes, English
department, T. C. U\, Fort Worth.
Extra judges were selected for use
in case of a tie. Extra judges for
the. annual paper and magazine con-
test are: James Crowijll, Dallas; G.
W. Cottinghani, Houston Chronicle.
Whitney Montgomery, Dallas, and
Hilton Ross Greer, Dallas Journal,

poem and short-story contests. Extra
judges for the formal and familiar
essay contests are, Miss Mettie Rog-
ers, Baylor University, and J. J.
Taylor, Dallas News.
whelmed by such questions:
"I'd like to get Holmes' Biology'
of the Frog."
"Sony, but they've,all been check-
ed out."
"Well, name me all the biology
boojes that have not been reserved."
"Mrs. Lisenby told us to read
something on coffee houses during
Addison's time. Do you have a good
geography of some kind*?1'
"Why hasn't the American Maga-
zine come this month'.'"
"Oh, you say it is here! Pardon
me. 1 never thought of looking.
^ es, it, is here. Thank you."
1 hen Miss Walton's voice sounds
above all the others: "Is someone
using Aijgcl's Psychology?"
( becking "■4jrUy,,«4« soon over and
the assistant sits once again m deep
and solemn repose to finish/the "lafst
chapter of "Halliburton's Royal Road
to Romance" and little is heard ex-
cept the ticking of the clock.
A tardy «irI dashes up the stepfj
and breaks the silence. She checks
her book out and goes away. Then
a group of grade school children
come to the desk and ask:
"May I have 'Mrs. Wiggs in the
Cabbage Patch?'"
"Oh, 1 want one of Jack London's
books." »
"Ah, why don't you get something
about Africa for geography?"
The library assistants get their
books. While they ait signing their
names to the cards, Miss Walton
once more reminds the children to
put their telephone number and ad-
dress on the cards.
After the 1:!!0 .hell has sounded,
the laboratory students rush to the
library—one student .will lazily look
for "Bailey's Domestic Science" on
the English shelf,-.while another will
look for "The i'.^il" on. the chemis-
try shell". Miss Walton sends the
assistant to aid them in recovering
what they have seemingly lost.
Then again silence reigns. A few
book-worms study until Miss Walton
announced that it •• is closing time,

Mr. Stuart: "We 'may have a quiz
tomorrow. Don't bo surprised if I
ask you for dates."
Marguerite R.;,. "Well, you needn't
ask me for any."
