-STETSON WEEKLY NEWS LETTER-
Vol. 3-No, 3-June 27, 1940-DeLand-Florida
VPULDST BE AN ARTIST?
Then come to see how the
nineteenth Century Painters did
their stuff. And if wouldst
just be a layman and merely
appreciate, then all the more
reason for coming. Mrs. Eu-
lalie T"rooten, Instructor in Public School Art and Art Appreciation, will present an illustrated lecture on the subject
tonight, Thursday, June 27,
7:30, and its free.
Using slides from a collection of 70, Mrs. "rooten v/ill discuss English, French, American,
Italian, and Spanish artists of
the last century. Place v/ill
be the auditorium in Elizabeth
Hall, and this is the third in
Dean Smith's series of Twilight
Hours.
Thinking of Twilight Hours,
you'd better start attending
some of them, for there's a
watermelon cutting coming up before long.
CONRAD HALL INVITES INVASION—
"It wasn't on the calendar
for social summer events", says
Braxton Huntley, "until Miss
McCullough gave us the old go
ahead signal this week". It
seems that the fellows in Conrad
Hall have decided to hold an
open house.' Every person attending Stetson is cordially invited
through this notice or just plain
hunch that something is going on.
Strictly not formal. Music and
food, and a grand chance to meet
and get acquainted.
The time? Friday night, from
eight to eleven o'clock, June 28,
If thou wouldst invade Conrad
Open House bring a dime, 0 boys.
IN SYMPATHY—
; We hesitate not at all to use
our News Letter to express deepest sympathy to Dean C. Prentice
Carson in these days of bereavement. The expression comes from
faculty and students alike.
Facts in brief—Mrs. Marion
Powell Carson died early Tuesday
morning, June 25, in Orlando,
following an illness of about six
weeks. Seventy years of age,
she came to DeLand in 1884 with
her parents. She was one of the
Dean's first students. They were
married 45 years, and celebrated
their 45th anniversary several
months ago.
SUMMERETTBS—
Ultimatum—Registrar Olga
Bowen frowned slightly at her
files as she declared quite definitely that any student who expects to carry off a degree this
summer and who hasn't turned in
an application to her office had
better drop by her office pretty
quick and start applying. Seriously, Miss Bowen would appreciate your cooperation, for she
must have your applications.
—S—
Linguists Leap—Despite the
fact that the summer school enrollment itself has dropped slightly, the Foreign Language Department holds its own. Dr. Frances
C. Thornton called to our attention the other day that she has
some 14 French scholars. Dr. Iola
Kay Eastburn can count 7 heads,
and Miss Louise Carter is instructor for 11 Spanish students.
Dr. Thornton opines that an increase in foreign languages is
always a sign that the scholarship level of a school is lifting.
