BEST WISHES—19361
T h e class of 193d makes its debut into Slate college
society tonight when it conducts its first animal dance
in t h e Aurania club. It also t u r n s the s p r i n g spotlight upon the inauguration of the social activities
of this season. May the sophomores, supported by
the whole-hearted cooperation of all m e m b e r s of the
o t h e r classes, make this their night—one to be looked
back upon as a most successful beginning to a most
successful social background for their r e m a i n i n g t w o
y e a r s at S t a t e c o l l e g e .
T h i s will be the second year that the b a n n e r rush
rules have heen in effect at the annual S o p h o m o r e
Soiree, ami we trust that ibis year the lack of competitive spirit will add as much, if not uun-e, to the
success of the first " t e a l " social function thai the
class has conducted as il did last year. O u r best
wishes are yours!
COMMITTEE ORGANIZES
In the lasl issue of the NKYYB an editorial conccrninn

editorial was criticized by some as being too harsh, hut
we felt then, and we feel now, even more strongly,
that the contents of this editorial were Justified, Monday morning when we entered the activities office we
were confronted by such a brilliant array of colors
and animated jocularity thai we ;it first thought we
were behind the times and had joined the Easier
P a r a d e a week late,
T h e Committee of Control is now definitely organized, and we feel certain that it will soon have conditions ill the office so well controlled lhat the scene will
be transformed from one of social lounging to one of
actual business efficiency. Now that the committee is
ready for action, ii will need the whole-hearted support of every m e m b e r of each activity having a desk

G. P .
It m a y seem s t r a n g e that a m o d e r n y o u n g w o m a n
of Lesley P r e wen's type should suddenly decide t o
adopt a son of only four and one-half years and move
to a cottage ill a small English town leaving behind
her all of her society friends and much-loved activities.
Yet, in a m o s t realistic and very fascinating manner,
M a r g e r y S h a r p weaves a story a b o u t t h e character of
Lesley F r e w c n which displays h e r gradual but definite
change from the seemingly m o r e superficial city life
and friends to the more substantial and sincere life of the
country and its colloquial m a n n e r i s m s .
T h e story carries a quiet but pleasing humor
t h r o u g h o u t without o v e r - s h a d o w i n g t h e more serious
plot concerning the true devotion of a real love which
has been masked by exterior fascinations but which
finally breaks t h r o u g h to encircle the entire life. T h e
book is well written and will interest the most critical
of readers.
T h e c o m p a n y is conducting a contest which should
prove of great interest and direct appeal to all women
of the College. T h e contest, as explained by the company is as follows: " A prize of fifty dollars in cash
will be a w a r d e d to the woman s u b m i t t i n g the best
letter ( n o t more than 250 words) describing her personal reaction to The Flowering Thorn. T h e letter must
be in the publishers' hand on or before J u n e 1, 1934. T o
the w o m e n s u b m i t t i n g the ten next best letters, the
publishers will give the choice of any o n e of the Putnam S p r i n g publications. L e t t e r s should be addressed
to T h e F l o w e r i n g T h o r n C o n t e s t E d i t o r , G. P . P u t n a m ' s Sons, 2 W e s t 45th Street, N e w Y o r k City."
T h e Story of a C o u n t r y B o y , by Dawn Powell.
F a r r a r and Rineliart, N e w York. 303 pages, $2.50.
By mere chance, it was Chris Benett w h o accepted
old M r . W e s t l c y ' s offer t o w o r k in t h e foundry at a
very small salary. H e had no excuse t o offer W e s t ley
as did his friend, so t h e j o b fell t o h i m . Chris worked
hard at the foundry and finally was promoted to a
position in the city. H e and his country-girl wife, Joy,
found themselves in an a t m o s p h e r e quite unfamiliar,
but they quickly adjusted themselves to their new e n vironment. J o y became absorbed with bridge parlies
and society while Chris met o t h e r women w h o attracted him greatly.
F o r t u n e played her hand and the self-made man
found himself confronted by defeat. H o w e v e r , as such
a man usually does, Chris rose from his unfortunate
condition and returned lo the farm. Miss Powell leaves
the t h o u g h t with t h e reader t h a t Chris and J o y a r e not
really happy and that perhaps they do not actually
repent so much as they may appear lo on the surface.
Miss Powell's plot is a familiar one but well developed and characterized by a h u m o r which adds t o the
appeal of (he story without destroying the seriousness
of the more t r y i n g situations. She p o r t r a y s the effect
of the depression upon a self-made c h a r a c t e r such as
lhat of Chris, how it has revealed to many of them
the fact that they really are not genii, but only human
beings subject l o the lot of (he average person.

Love and an ability to use il deftly in obtaining
power for oneself c a n accomplish many ends. Cleopatra lacked no ability in the line a r t s of using her
love as power, and in this hook Gaston Dclayen tells
the story of her life. T h e story follows history rather
closely. In an exceptionally interesting manner, it
develops the way in which this w o m a n intermingled
social desires with political cleverness t o bring power

College to the retirement of Charles
Widor from the post of official o r ganist of the church of Saint-Sulpice, in Paris, M r . Widor, besides
being a world-famous organist, is
also a composer.
In the February 18, 1927, issue
of the Nl'.ws, Miss Ferine describes
the Christmas day service at SaintSulpice. In this story Miss Pcrinc
slates: "Sometimes the music was
so low that it was like sensing rather than hearing the sound, and then
it would rise and swell, echoing
through the lofty arches, flooding
through the great spaces, and gathering us all into the rapture of its
triumphant harmony that with its
final strains told the 'old, old story'."
