Movies in Auditorium
The college has been indeed lucky during the past week. The advantages of a non-flu community have been felt in many ways, but among the most enjoyable have been the frequent moving picture shows in the auditorium. On Thursday, Saturday and Monday nights these shows were presented.
"Little Women," the first, was a beautiful picture, giving the character that most girls love in a most pleasing and artistic scenic production. "The Old Homestead" amused quite an audience on Saturday night, while Constance Talmage in "a Lady's Name," won the lasting approval of the girls on Monday evening. The latter picture was really delightful. It was just the kind girls always like: bright, modern, clever and absolutely above criticism in every respect.
The girls appreciate the movies on the campus. They would enjoy and patronize them at any time. Would that the day might come when good pictures could be shown here with a degree of regularity. Will it come? Yes, if the student body can answer this question.
