Talk On France
By Mrs. Humber
Phi Sigma held its regular
meeting Wednesday evening,
November 11 in the "Y" Hut.
Mrs. R. 1. Humber, a native of
France who is now making her
home in Greenville was guest
speaker.
Mrs. Humber spoke on
"France Forever She said
that the new Armistice which
was made between the free
Punch and Germany was
broken by Hitler November 11.
When a new government is set
up it will be the fourth re-
public.
All of France is like a prison
camp and in Brittany there are
four for political prisoners.
Mrs. Humber said the French
women were fighting also and
in one case they helped all the
French prisoners escape. An
underground road from Brit-
tany to free France is used for
escape.
Mrs. Humber read a letter
which she received from hei
husband the first week in No-
vember. An American lawyer
wrote to Mr. Humber telling
him how he and his wife escap-
ed from France and the condi-
tions which prevail there at
present. He said that food was
scarce and although there is
15 per cent more food than
normal most of it goes to
Germany and also 85 per cent
of the wine. In restaurants a

Yenan, in North Shensi, is a
city of caves. There are thous-
ands of them, scattered through-
out 20 miles of mountain
gorges. Homes, schools, indus-
tries, government offices, every-
thing�and everybody�is in
caves. Living in caves offers
marked advantages. Not only is
one safe from air-raids, but one
is warm in winter and cool in
summer. Furthermore, caves
are economical!
Here is a description of the
student sanitarium, construct-
ed with funds sent to China by
the World Student Service
Fund. "It is all caves�120 of
them�street upon street, half
a mile up into the mountains.
If it is not one of the seven
wonders, it is certainly the
eighth. The ground excavated
from the caves has been built
into wide outdoor porches,
where patients can sit or lie in
the glorious mountain air and
sun. Students abroad contri-
buted ?10,000 Chinese currency
toward the sanitarium. The
Yenanities thanked us again
and again for this help
The construction cost of the
sanitarium was less than
$12,000 in Chinese money.
Equipment cost $8,000 in that
currency. The sanitarium has
100 beds. By March of last
year, 156 patients had been ad-
mitted, 63 of whom were cured

For four years after I came
from Germany all I had seen of
the U. S. A. was New York, and
just as Paris means France for
the Parisian, so New York
meant America for me. Well,
two months ago I came to the
South and right from the begin-
ning I was impressed by hun-
dreds of new experiences. The
way people speak, dress, live�
everything seems completely
different here and I now have
to make the second great adjust-
ment of my life.
When I left the train in Wil-
son, for the first time I felt al-
most as lost as I did four years
ago when I stepped on Ameri-
can soil for the first time. I
could not understand the people
around me, and they could not
understand me. Then finally�I
arrived at ECTC and was
cordially received by Miss Annie
L. Morton and Grace Ross.
The extreme friendliness and
helpfulness of everybody at
ECTC surprised me greatly and
made me feel at home at once.
"Southern Hospitality" is not
just an idle boast. How cool and
distant Northerners seems in
comparison! One neighbor does
not know the other in New York
by Jenny Witkowski
City, while here, it seems, that
everybody belongs to a big
happy family. Here, where one
is happy the next one will
share the happiness, and in case
of pain felt by one, the other
will suffer with him and try to
help. Sometimes I wish that my
first home in America after I
came from abroad could have
been in the South�adjustments
would have been so much
easier!
But there is something in
New York that is missing at
ECTC, something that makes
life richer and more worth-
while in the metropolis. I am
referring to a certain cultural
portunites and cultural atmos-
phere of New York. But of
course, it is not fair to compare
Greenville or E. C. T. C. with
this metropolis. The great va-
riety of inhabitants really
makes New York City what it
is. But I think we can learn
frpm it, just as much as the
Northerners can learn many
things from the South.
Sociology teaches that there
is a mutual interaction between
human beings and their en-
vironment. Let us make our en-
vironment as pleasant and val-
uable as possible. Culture and
education have become rather
"faced" terms for many. They

Emmett Sawyer, first presi-
dent of the Y. M. C. A. on the
E. C. T. C. campus speaking at
Vespers on November 8, stress-
ed the fact that his listeners as
Christian soldiers must live up
to the same kind of strict stand-
ard that the military man has
to meet.
Such soldiers at home, dis-
ciplined as Christian soldiers,
must take advantage of their
opportunity for training. The
students in colleges all over the
country should strive to exploit
fully their great opportunities,
so that they may be great
soldiers of Christ, he said.
They must possess willingness
to sacrifice, said Mr. Sawyer,
and here he pointed out the life
of sacrifice that was Living-
stone's. The ability to "work to-
gether with classmates and
friends" will make and mold
them into better Christian
soldiers. As warriors of the
cross Christians should be
courageous, and above all, to be
a good soldier, must practice
love. Even though we engage
an enemy in mortal combat, we
should never forget that Chrit
himself taught that we mst
love even our direct foes.
Mr. Sawyer concluded his
talk by saying "We must de-
vote a portion of our life to
Christ every day

CmcAtO � BO.TOH � LO UHUt � s� nuMnco
It all began one Saturday night when
glamour-girl Anne Foxsworth decided to ap-
pear at the Sadie Hawkins dance as Moon-
beam McSwine. After a couple hours of
strenuous application, the former would-be
Veronica Lake emerged as Heddy Lamarr in
all her splendor. All those second glances
she got convinced me that she made a sure
hit.
Not since last spring has the campus
experienced a similiar revolution. Who can
ever forget those eventful days last year
when any Betty Coed was apt to kiss her
beau goodnight�a typical brunette�onty
to appear at the breakfast table the follow-
ing morning a transformed red-head. (I'll
vouch the Greenville druggists, relieved of
all their surplus proxide, have not forgot-
ten.) Then too, there are several victory
haircuts on the campus that are definite re-
sults of the experiments.
I dare say that the introducer dreamed
of selling the idea completely. (Drat it, my
secret ambition has al ays been to make an
invention, get a patent and retire. Looks
as if I let a fortune slip through my fingers
right here.) Whether intended or not, the
fad has swept the campus like wild fire.
You are likely to meet at any corner, your
favorite blende as a brunette. (It must be
the gypsy in them.)
Although the job looks like a pretty
neat one, there are still a couple of" loop-
holes. Several of the coeds have already
voiced their complaints against the vile
odors. Take a tin from me, splash on a
couple drops of Ben Hur perfume and this
problem will be solved. There still remains
the nuisance of rubbing off. It simply won't
stay put on the hair, but I've ?een it well
anchored on some white shirls. Any solution
to the problem will be greatly appreciated.
Shakespeare voiced my sentiment exact-
ly when he said, "Who will not change a
raven for a dove?"
We Hope There Won't
Be A Fire�But
Along with other activities which have
resulted from thinking in terms of defense
plans, fire drills have been re-established
on the campus. Seeing the possibihtv of
disastrous results should a fire break out on
our campus; the Student Government Asso-
ciation has organized, with characteristic
fore-thought, a committee to plan and carry
out practice drills.
According to reports, the first drill
was one hundred per cent efficiently car-
ried out. Those students and members of
the administration who made the drill suc-
cessful should be highly praised for their
cooperative spirit and seriousness in the
matter. Fire drills should be taken seriously
at all times.
Some discomfort may result from hav-
ing to tumble out of bed occasionally for a
drill, but this small discomfort will be
necessary to assure safety in case of an
emergency.

Putting aside their dignity, members
of the college staff and their wives had a
very delightful party. Friday, November 6.
From 5:45 o'clock until seven o'clock every-
one had fun in the "Y" Hut.
As the guests arrived they were divided
into the feuding families: the Yokums and
th Scraggs, the Yukes and Kallikakes, the
Hatfields and the McCoys, and the Monta-
gues and the Capulets.
After serving themselves to a buffet
supper, the families sat at unfriendly dis-
tances and stared at each other; during
dessert, hatchets and guns were buried and
all ate in harmony.
During the meal a fashion show was
presented as a part of the floor show. The
style review consisted of costumes from the
Gay Nineties to the 1930's. A Florador Sex-
tette was another number on the floor show.
Members of the sextette dressed in costumes
of the nineties were Misses Margaret Sell-
man, Ellen Caldwell, Audrey Dempsey,
Mary Caughey, Mrs. Marianna Christian-
bury and Mrs. Eva Blaine. They offered a
rollicking dance.
Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Dittmer dramatized
"A Bicycle Built for Two while Mr. Ditt-
mer sang.
Mr. and Mrs. Denton Rossell burlequed a
dramatic interpretation of "My Merry Olds-
mobile
Humorous readings were given by Miss
Eunice McGee and Mrs. P. W. Pickelsimer,
who were also in costume.
Flappers of the 1920's were Miss Pearl
Chapman and Mrs. Agnes Barrett.
Miss Lena Ellis and Miss Marguerite
Austin danced the Charleston.
Closing the hour of fun were songs by
an impromptu sextet composed of Mr. J. H.
Rose, Dr. L R. Meadows, Dr. R. J. Slay,
Mr. Denton Rossell, Mr. A. L. Dittmer, Dr.
H. J. McGinnis, and Mr. F. D. Duncan with
Miss Eleanor Etheridge at the niano.
Miss Dora Coates, Mrs. L. P. Rives,
Miss Madelon Powers, Mrs. Adelaide Blox-

The fact is admitted that we were not
asked to express our opinion concerning the
W. S. S. F. drive but since this is a so-called
"free" country we deem it our privilege and
our pleasure to express our views.
It is an old adage that "charity begins
at home"�this is sound advice that has not
been strictly adhered to by the American
people. Anyone will admit that an impera-
tive need still exists within the bounds of
the United States and yet we see fit to send
($300,000 worth) abroad, or to be spent at
home on foreigners. This money could be
spent to greater national advantage in the
building of the shattered American leader-
ship that will result from the present con-
flict.
For 1G6 years, for its entire existence
to be exact, the United States has repeated-
ly "hired" itself out to the mercenary de-
sires of one nation or another. We "have
fought wars and destroyed two generations.
We have bled the soil of America white
producing food for foreign people and now
we have designated the America youth to
support countries that lie from 3,000 to
6,000 miles away. If we had clothed our
soldiers in shining armor and sent them
forth to a beleaguered castle we could not
better revert to the medieval puritanism of
heart which should have died years ago.
If the American youth of to-day are
not important enough to keep the economic
wealth at home for its sole development
then the Marines that died on Guadacanal

Island died for a worthless cause.

Approximately forty cheer

on hand Friday night at the
local bus station to bid a final
farewell to Bill Lucas, popular
ECTC athlete who has been an
asset to the physical education
program since he enrolled year
before last. Lucas is now spend-
ing his last two days with his
family in Asheville before re-
porting to Nashville, Tennessee,
where he will begin training to
become an Army Air Force
Cadet.
A junior at the time of his
departure, Ambitious Lucas
played guard on the football
team for two seasons. East
Carolina's undefeated team of
last year will long remember
the consistant play of the high-
spirited gridder.
As president of the Varsity
club, a member of the Men's

ball team, Bill has proved his
worth as nil extra-curricular
participant as well as an
athlete.

topic for discussion was "Plan-
ning the Christian Home She
stressed the importance of
Christ as the chief corner stone
Mrs. Holland's interest in the
alumni in the armed forces of
our country led to her plan to
send from the Alumni Associa-
tion a Christmas letter to all
Alumni in uniform; and she
appointed Dr. Frank to secure
names and addresses for this
purpose. The same plan will
apply to all alumnae in the
WAVES and WAACS. Mrs.
Holland urges those who can
supply any of the needed in-
formation to mail it as soon as
possible to the Alumni Office
or to Dr. Frank.
Miss Smith made the treas
urer's report for the Associa-
tion, which now has a good
?rart TTon, the 'ear's budget.
Mrs. Holland asked Miss Smith
to receive all dues and to re-
port names of paid members to
the Teco Echo business man-
ager.
President Meadows m a d a
sense statements, on the effect
which the present emergency is
having on the college enroll-
ment and finances. He ar-
ranged for additional files for
�e Alumni Office and express-
ed his appreciation of the fine
work and loyal cooperation of
tne Alumni Association.
Mrs. Holland expects to come
to the college on fairly frequent
visits to assist with office
matters.

One of the most important
transactions during the businesj
meeting was the decision of the
club to buy a $50 war bond with

ing Russia, whom they defeated
in 1905. Trying her power
again in 1915, Japan attacked
China, after which congress
created a nine-power conference
and ran Japan out. Japan tested
Russia, England, and the Unit-
ed States to see if they would
fight, by sinking one of their
ships. When no steps were
taken against Japan she again
attacked China, this was 121
1937.

help the boys decide on their
preference
Each of the five emphasized
the fact that college students
will make "good officer ma-
terial and boys should adjust
their curriculums to include
math, science and physics.
Immediately following the
lectures by the officers ques-
tions were asked by ECTC
boys, and conferences were
held in various sections of Aus-
tin auditorium. The purpose of
the conferences was to clear up
the boy's problems and to give
them more information on the
reserves.
"All we can promise is de-
ferment until the end of this
semester stated Lt. Tway,
army air force.
"Sorry you didn't get a
chance to see ECTC's 918 girls

the officers. In reply, Lt. Prest-
