They were met there by groups of young ladies who conducted them through the There were rooms of North Hall. 22 young ladies in the North Hall u n i f o r m who acted as guides f r o m room to room, naming their o c c u pants. Some o f the South Hall men claim to have made interesting observations in regard to the prevailing tastes among N o r t h Hall women i*> regard to interior decorations. For example, it was discovered that the most popular p i c t u r e was " S p r i n g Song," with " T h e Lone W o l f , " and " A n Old Fashioned Gqrden" close seconds in point of popularity. Some rooms were decorated with original paintings by the occupants. Touches of feminine handiwork w e r e universally apparent. Refreshments in the f o r m of homemade candy - were served on the several floors by girls in attractive costumes. The groups, upon c o m p l e t i n g the tour of the building, were conducted to the large parlor where an informal program featuring poems and songs of Riley was given. Bonnie Velhagen played a cello solo, accompanied on the piano by Helen Foreman. A musical reading, " W h e n the Frost Is on the Punkin, and the Fodders' in the Shock," was given by Lois Jones, who also was accompanied by Helen Foreman. A ladies' trio, consisting of Geneva Kern, Jeanette Hawley, and Helen Jones, sang " L i t t l e Orphant Annie." Opal Crozier read Riley's poem " A t Griggsby Station." The enthusiastic applause accorded all the actors in the p r o g r a m by the South Hall men gave evidence that North Hall's open house had been a success. TWO CLASSES SCORE MORE THAN HUNDRED PER CENT Sabbath SchooI'Makes Average Standing ot Ninety Per Cent That much interest is being taken in the Sabbath school is evidenced by the f a c t that two classes made scores of over one hundred per cent last week, as they more than reached their triple goal of p e r f e c t attendance, daily lesson study, and o f f e r ings. Professor Schilling's class headed the list with 112 per cent, and Professor Thiel's class c a m e second with a standing of 104 p e r cent.

We have been very m u c h interested in their new school newspaper, " T h e Student F o r u m . " It is certainly an indication of real school spirit and loyal co-operation at Enterprise. Not all our academies have the f a c i l ities f o r publishing a school paper of any kind, and Enterprise is accomplishing a great deal in publishing a weekly paper. A n d of course, it takes m o r e than printing facilities to make a newspaper a success. A school newspaper arouses the interest of the prospective students in the school; it helps t o keep the graduates and f o r m e r students interested in their Alma Mater; and it develops a spirit of loyalty and enthusiasm among the students. W e believe that Enterprise Academy will be amply repaid f o r its efforts in publishing a newspaper. Fable: There was so m u c h news f o r the Clock T o w e r this week that it was necessary to publish eight pages instead. of f o u r . It isn't the easiest thing in the world t o fill f o u r pages w i t h news, especially when those whose names adorn the top of this column have to take a f e w hours of college work on the side. The reporters can't find out everything about every Union student, especially those whose adresses are China, South A f r i c a , Pumpkinville, or some other place. A n d although they are inquisitive, a f e w things happen that they never hear about. N o doubt you have guessed the moral of this s t o r y — h e l p us get news. If you have sprained your ankle, or discovered a new star, or bought a pet monkey, or developed a new theory, tell the Clock T o w e r about it. W e should especially appreciate receiving news f r o m graduates and f o r mer students. It is the aim of the Clock T o w e r to give its readers four pages of news each week and everyone will appreciate your co-operation in helping us do it. FORMER STUDENTS ATTEND CONVENTION BOOK REVIEW V21 a an A •J1 "The Crises of the Christ" is a new addition to the college library written by G. Campbell Morgan, D. D. live in East Hall called it the "Cracker Box," while those who did called it the " W h i t e House," and termed the inmates "Senators." The occupants of the Castle had a very different name f o r them. In order to give the ladies of South Hall an opportunity of seeing East Hall, the "Senators" opened their home f o r inspection. A luncheon was served and a carnation given each lady in honor of this momentous occasion. A m o n g the residents who helped inaugurate the long line of open houses were W. W. Ruble, preceptor, now connected with Lacombe Junior College; Louis Ritzhaupt; Elder A. N. Anderson, missionary to Japan; Howard Bailey, now connected with mechanical department' of Battle Creek Sanitarium, and many others. One who was here then and is here now says, "Indeed that was a grand affair, and I'm sorry to say East Hall has never looked the same since. " A l l these (crises) lie between t w o facts, which must be considered. The first is that of the ruin of the race, which created the necessity f o r the work of Christ. The second is that of the redemption of the race, which issues f r o m the work of the Christ." p. 17. This book is highly r e c o m m e n d e d f o r its educational value, spiritual tone, and inspirational u p l i f t .

The process is slow, and d i f ficult to watch in its progress.

Attention is Called to 'Postal Regulations [The College View postmaster, C. B. Morey, has requested that we publish the following notice.] The post office department has for some time been making an effort to secure the co-operation of tiie public in putting a stop to the enclosing of first class (hand writing, typewriting, or anything wholly or partly in writing) with mail of the second, third, or fourth class. These enclosures, made with parcel post or papers which you are mailirtg, subject the parcels to the first class rate of postage, two cents for each ounce. It not only makes it expensive for the addressee at destination, but also puts the post office to a great deal of unnecessary work, delays your parcel, and brings unnecessary criticism upon the post office department. To avoid errors of this kind and to aid you in event) that you wish to send a communication along with your parcel, postal regulations provide that a letter may be attached to the outside of parcels provided that the letter bears the proper postage at the first class rate. It has been necessary for this office to charge first class rate of postage on parcels that have been received at the College View office which have been found upon examination to have contained first class enclosures. This this has caused considerable trouble and inconvenience for our patrons and also to this office. This applies to resident patrons and also to student patrons. Especially should students see that no such enclosures are made when mailing their laundry bags. It is our desire to secure your co-operation in this as we wish to serve the public at all times in the best manner possible.
