Atlanta, Georgia Rev. Wallace Rogers Oxford, Georgia Rev. W. T. Watkins Emory University, Georgia H. T. Quillian Rome, Georgia PRESIDENT OF SCHOOL 1 HROUGHOUT the one hundred and three years of the existence of LaGrange College the institution has dwelt in the centre of the affections of the people of LaGrange. Crowning the hill and nest- ling among its leafy groves the tall budd- ings have for these many years looked down with a beneficent smile upon the homes and shops and stores of the little city. Mingling in friendship the daugh- ters of LaGrange have for generations gathered in the halls of the college and learned the secrets of science, the marvels of history, the delights of language, the wonders of art, and the joys of life. During all the years the citizens of LaGrange have not only enjoyed the privi- leges of the college, but they have par- ticipated liberally in its beneficences. The excellent faculty provided by the insti- tution, the comfort and convenience of its class rooms and halls of residence, and the beauty of its grounds and shrubbery are testimonials to the love and liberality of the local friends. f '"X'. E. Thompson, President Greetings, therefore, to you our local friends: greetings for your love and loyalty in behalf of those whose names are shining lights on the pages of our his- tory, of those who now tread the hallowed pathway of learning and of that multi- tude who in the years to come, because of your generosity, will rise up to call you blessed.

A help to girls in years gone by, You've stood a century-more; A [dace of learning that we love As others did of yore. You're taught us, Alma Mater, To live for others first, To aid in every way we can; You helped to quench our thirst For things of higher planes and heights, And for a nobler life; You've led the way to peace and joy, Away from petty strife. So may you stand for ages, Receive tomorrow's youth Who come to you with open hearts In search of wisdom, truth. And while their loyal loves Triumphant honors bring, Remember, Alma Mater, These praises that we sing. Nell Barrett. SNAPSHOTS Left Martha showing the birds how to use their hath tub.

LaGRANGE COLLEGE Upon your lofty hill year after year You've stood so like a sparkling gem, set high Above the commonplace. Old College dear, A century of service has passed by. A century of faith and ideals strong, And those who've passed from out your long-loved hall Still feel your guiding presence as a song Of inspiration upward, onward calls. Your trees, set deep in Georgia's southern sod Hold lithing bird notes, echoed by the breeze; Your hill-top- sunsets seem to whisper, "God," Unto the soul who beauty ever sees. Old Alma Mater, How ive honor you! Each daughter glows when L. C.'s name she hears. Possessing pride is yours your work stands true; Old College grand how well you've served these years Jewell Favor Glass.

It is human nature to exaggerate, to make the fish twice as big, to make our joys three times as pleasant, and to make our troubles four times as great. I opened one eye just enough to see if it were already time to get up, and I asked how the iveathcr was. "Oh, it's about forty below. I'm frozen stiff, and this room is like a refrigerator. Better get up; you have about half a second to get to breakfast ," was the reply. At breakfast I was greeted with, "Wasn't last night awful? I didn't sleep a wink. The cracks in my room are big enough for young elephants to crawl through, and the wind nearly took me off." A little later there was, "This room is the dirtiest thing I've ever seen. A million ants are on that pickle ice had left from last night. Let's don't clean up much 'cause I have about a hundred pages to read before the bell." After class: "That was the most awful test I ever stood. I didn't know a thing; I flunked it in a big way. I hope the mail has come, but 1 haven't had a letter in months." At night on every side yon may hear, "Haven't you anything to eat? Tin starl ing; its been years since supper, and I thought I ate enough liver to last until Christ mas." It is human nature to exaggerate. Wouldn't it be queer to hear a college girl describe the weather as "very cold indeed"; her room as "quite chilly and rather disorderly" ; a test as "most un pleasant"? Well, unusual at the least. But I can't write on and on condemning exaggeration because it is getting late, and I still have thousands of things to do. Jean Darden. SNAPSHOTS Left Dutifully we go to elm pel. Our little boy.

Page 50 ORGANIZATIONS THE QUADRANGLE In bringing forth this volume of the Quadrangle, gratitude and appreciation are due a number of very helpful people, who are responsible for whatever success the book might have. To Miss Shepard I am indebted for her much-needed and helpful advice at all times. As assistant editor Helen Copelan's original ideas and hard work have been invaluable. To Frances Fleeth, business manager, Mary Traylor, advertising manager, Lucille Womack, literary editor, and Elizabeth Henderson, typist, profuse thanks are given in recognition of their cheerful service. Gertrudf. Linn, Editor-in-Chief. Publishing an annual has shown the annual staff the worth of many of its friends. We will always be grateful to the wonderful co-operation of the merchants of LaGrange, our advertisers, and to the members of the board of trustees, who have given us their perfect co-operation. To Mary Traylor, our advertising manager, we extend our earnest appreciation of her efforts. To those members of the firms, Foote & Davies Co., Wrigley's, and Davis Art Studio we wish to give our appreciation for their great accomplishments in our behalf. In behalf of the entire staff, I want to thank all those who have aided us in making this, our 1 93 5 Quadrangle, possible. Frances Fleeth, Business Manager. Page 54 STUDENT This Association is based on Honor. It is essential that each student have embedded in her character, and exemplified in her life, the fundamental principles of truth and honesty, co-operation and service in order for the Stu- dent Government to stand for all that is finest and best in the college life. May every student be a better woman and better servant of hu- manity because of her membership in this As- sociation. The traditions and spirit of the city of La- Grange should be an inspiration to the girls as they enter and leave the college and town to strive daily to fashion their lives in order that they too might be true and helpful citizens in whatever place they make their homes in the future.

Pase 84 \\\ Country Club ATHLETICS Miss Kinsland Director Bessie Ruth Burtz President The Athletic Association is an organization to promote interest in Athletics and to develop its members physi- cally, mentally, and morally. It upholds the standards of good sportsmanship and fair play. Under the able leadership and direction of Miss Kins- land, the introduction of soc- cer at L. C. has aroused new interest. The upper classmen, who have grown old in the pursuit of knowledge on the hill, are no match', however, for the "fiery freshies." Cap- tain Rountree led her "Green Wave" to a smashing victory of 4 to in the championship match. Notice the gleam of victory in the eyes of the Champs. Freshmen Soccer Team Cham pious Pago 8i r Virginia Franklin Evelyn Summer Vice-President Secretary Cenette Van D'Elden Trensu rer With such a Council as this, it's easy to under- stand how the Association adds another successful year to its record. The President wishes here to thank each member of the Council for her hearty support, co-operation and enthusiasm. In the cut-outs, are snapshots of the runners-up in the tennis tournament, Virginia Franklin and Mildred Rutland. They are swell players and good losers and that means a lot. Who can tell? Maybe they will be the champions next year. Si A representative from each class completes the personnel of the Athletic Council. These girls mean a lot to the Coun- cil and we appreciate their en- thusiastic co-operation. And here's the soccer team that worked so valiantly to stem the tide of the "Green Wave." Captain Burtz and her fight- ing tigers were not quite equal to the task, however. L Mancham, Finley, Johnston, Hall, Copllan, Wootten, Davison, Burtz, Jones, Tanner, Mitchell, Franklin, Veatch.

In this Tennis Club are included some good tennis materials. Practically any of these girls can give you a stiff workout most any day. But if you really want a good tennis game just call on the cham- pions, Helen Copelan and Bessie Burtz. This is the second year that they've held this title and we'll ad- mit that it takes a good team to beat them. Helen Copelan Bessie Ruth Burtz Cham pions Page 90 H O R S E S H O E For the first time we have tried to arouse interest in the game of horse shoes. We have some girls who "wield a wicked shoe," too. This sport is especially adaptable because girls who are not especially athletic may be good "horse shoers." An hour of practice counts as two points toward a letter and every point helps. So let's pitch horse shoes girls! Genette Van D'Eloen Page 91 CHEERS Rail! Rah! Rah! Is it any wonder that players outdo themselves? With such cheer leaders as these any team would be inspired to superhuman effort. These girls are full of pep and their lungs are well, certainly there's nothing wrong with them. And what have we here? Mr. Murray and Mr. Bailey, our tennis stars among the faculty. They play tennis like they really mean it and enjoy it thor- oughly. You have to stay on the job to beat this pair. FEATURES Q lan M MISS LaGRANGE YHarika Slliott Ill cine ii iallox MISS FRESHMAN HILDEGARDE OF LaGRANGE She's a tall girl, a strong girl, Sturdy, robust, Without i unity or deceit; She's a girl that treads the earth like a queen; And oh, how she is sweet! There are girls far fairer, And girls more gay, But none that is more sincere; She's a girl whose soul is in her face, A page that reads all clear. W hole-hearted and winsome And witty is she, And frank and friendly and free; She's a girl whose handclasp gives a thrill, . And whose smile is good to see. When the world's awry, And your heart's in a knot, And life turns to dust in your hand, Look into Hildegarde's happy eyes And yon will understand. You can't pass Hildegarde On the stair And feel depressed or dull; Her spirit sheds electric beams; What was empty of light grows full. You may talk all you please Of the pretty girl, Sung by the ravished bard ; But the girl who's a cordial to the heart Is merry Hildegarde. Helen Harriet Salls.

The Dunson Mills lies on the eastern edge of the city, between the Atlanta and West Point Railroad and the Atlanta Highway, Route 14. Its buildings and giounds are among the most attractive in the South today. The main mill build- ing and offices are surrounded by a wide expanse of velvety lawns, green the year round, and appropriately planted with flowering and evergreen shrubs. The mill building is of red brick with white trim, and has a base planting of shrubbery. The tenement village has some three hundred houses of three and four room types, at all times kept freshly painted white, with green trim. Every home is provided with electric lights and running water and has ample room surrounding it for flower and vegetable gardens, chickens, and a cow if desired. The City of LaGrange rents from the Company its splendid two-story brick school building and operates there a grammar school. The Company operates at its own expense a well-equipped kindergarten for the small children, and a domestic science school for the girls of the fifth and sixth grades. A full-time graduate nurse is regularly employed by the Company for the welfare of its employees and their families, and group life insurance at a very low rate is provided for all who wish it. The Company a few years ago built two modern brick churches, one of Old Eng- lish and one of Colonial design, and besides furnishing light, heat and jan itor service for the congregations using them, also contributes substantially to the support of their resident pastors. THE DUNSON MILLS EXTENDS GREETINGS AND GOOD WISHES NOT ONLY TO THE LaGRANGE COLLEGE SENIORS OF 1935, BUT TO ALL THE GIRLS ON THE HILL.
