Entertainments at Guilford College

Guilford College, Dec. 17 - One of the most interesting entertainments of the 
year was given one evening the past week under the management of the Y.M.C.A. 
After the execution of a literary programme, which required perhaps three 
quarters of an hour, a well-trained class of several young men went through a 
number of exercises upon the bar and horse. Following this the class performed 
numerous feats of tumbling upon the mats. Refreshments were served and a neat 
sum was realized, which goes towards the expenses of the association.

Another evening occupied by the association recently was devoted to the 
presentation of the subject of foreign missions. Three papers were read on 
different phases of the work in China. Rev. Rufus King, who has traveled 
widely in the mission fields, was present, and gave a happy and instructive 
talk on his experience in India.

The local Christian Endeavor Society lately held a reception for its members 
and a number of invited guests. Those present report an enjoyable time spent 
with games, refreshments, etc.

Miss Adale Craven gave her second public recital of the music students last 
Saturday night. The rostrum was elegantly decorated with white muslin, ivy and 
pot plants. Two vocal and eight piano solos were rendered, also four piano 
duets and songs by the chorus classes.
