The theme of the meeting was Improved Family Living For All. Mrs. Dora Lewis, president of the American Home Economics association, was guest speaker. Show Architectural Trends in Art Exhibit Architecture reflecting the social trend of the times is the theme of the newest art display on the eighth floor. The display, set up for the art appreciation class, pictures contempcrary architec ture from bridges to civic buildings to skyscrapers. Architecture, the legend emphasizes, is not a purely personal art; the architect, the draftsmen, the lighting expert, the contractor, and the plumber who combine their talents and ideas to create the building, making it a cross-section of the trend of the day. Mu Nu Sigma Sponsors Lecture on Nov. 21 The Reverend John P. Downey, S.J., of the Loyola and Mundelein Philosophy departments, will lecture for members of Mu Nu Sigma at 3 p.m., on Nov. 21, in Room 405, on Thomistic Concepts versus Some Modern Concepts of Good and Evil.

Miss Pappas, who owns her own horse, Love's Aristocrat, won the Pair Class with Corrine Steuber from the Convent of the Sa cred Heart. More fun than either victory, according to Miss Pappas, was her experience in riding to win for a younger girl the horse that placed first in the Ladies' Pala- mino class.

The year was 1907 and no one had heard about cap sleeves, or toeless and heelless shoes. The bride wore bow- knot lace with ruffled yoke and bertha, and the bride groom, no doubt, wore a handlebar mustache. Now the wedding dress is a lonely thing seeking companionship among the other treasures of costume history that have been filed away on hangers in the costume shop. A pair of white kid slip pers of an incredibly narrow last ac company the dress. Mrs. J. G. OBrien, who was the bride, has also donated a brown silk taffeta dress which was her mother's wedding gown 78 years ago. A third dress, of indigo blue with yards and yards of smocking and leg o' mutton sleeves, completes the tria. Cecilians Give Fall Concert (Continued from page 1, column 5) The word scherzo, translated from the Italian as jest , is used ironically by the temperamental Pole. The com position is grave rather than light. Per haps Frederic Chopin meant it as a challenge to the interpretative ability of those who would both play and listen to his music. The Fourth Symphony by Saint-Saens, the Frenchman who was both composer and concert artist, can best be described as brilliant. While its third and fourth movements are interpreted by Catherine Prendergast, with Gloria Maloney at the second piano, the listener will find, not a sustained melody, but, instead, a series of intricate and breathtaking pas sages reaching their climax in the fourth movement. Wieniawski's Polonaise Brilliante No. 2 will be the violin solo of Lillian Muza, with Margaret Cashman at the piano. Although it does not have the dramatic force of Chopin's Polonaises, Wieniawski's composition represents the gayer and more hopeful spirit of the Polish people. Defines Liberal Education As Freedom of Mind and Heart Sociologists Visit Court and Hospital Senior sociology majors visited the Juvenile court on Nov. 1, and sociology students from all classes toured County Hospital, where they observed procedure in the occupational therapy room, the fracture ward, the blood-count and plasma department, and the X-Ray room. Freedom of mind, of heart, of emo tions, and of attitudes distinguishes the liberally educated person, declared the Reverend Wilfred M. Mallon, S.J., who, in a lecture here on Nov. 13, defined freedom as the liberty to think, judge, and act in accordance with sound con victions rather than in accordance with the attitudes of the mob or pressure of eternal dictation. Such freedom, Father noted, is the fruit of education that trains the mind to accomplish three things, the first of which is mastery of the tools of learning ability to use the English language effectively and to read ef fectively in English and in any other needed language. The second goal of a liberal educa tion, Father observed, is command of the basic areas of human knowledge accepted as fundamental by any edu cated person the areas of literature and the arts, of history and the other social sciences, and of the scientific accomplishments of man. The third goal involving an area almost totally neglected in many col leges is, according to Father Mallon, command of the norms of life. Urging the students to develop the habits of acquiring knowledge and of measuring that knowledge against norms, Father insisted that such ha bitual practice results in the habits of appreciation and of judgment, of sound thinking and of intellectual and emo tional balance. Distinguishing liberal education from mere training, Father pointed out that education involves the being of a person, whereas training involves only his doing. Training, he declared, develops skills, but education builds the spirit, which meets the exigencies of life as they arise. In conclusion, Father observed that knowledge in itself is not an object, but that intellectual processes are the first end of education and success in developing these leads the individual to react in all situations in accordance with right principles. Father Mallon is director of the Jesuit Educational association of the Missouri province of his Society. The downtown area of Chicago must admit defeat at last Its reputation as the pivot on which midwestern social events whirl already overshadowed by the literally sparkling Sophomore Cotil lion, the Mundelein-Loyola coke dancej and the splendid plays presented last night by the Drama department is veri likely to suffer a complete breakdown by May. (This forecast comes to theater opera house, and hotel managers througW the courtesy of all the major deparM ments of the College, four out of fotnj classes, and the officers and member* of the Student Activities Council. Win so many people on our side, how canj we lose?) We must admit, however, that downJ town Chicago is doing her best to gite us fair competition. And, to keep the scales of Miss Justice on an even keelj we are tasting of all the better things our breeze-tangled town is' serving. Holder of the entertainment loving cup this month is, without a doubt, the Ice Follies. This spectacular produc- tion serves the eye with its graceful dances and colorful costumes ... the ear with its compelling background music . . . and the will with the in spiration it offers for those snow-capped skating parties at Delavan.

Rosemary Mc- Devitt, Jeanne Koch, and Patricia Dunne will do a little recapturing of their own every time they look at those carefully saved theater-stubs or hear again the haunting Serenade. No one ever wearies of seeing .. , and hearing . . . the foolish Faust play into the hands of menacing Mephis-j topheles. Add to that list the names of Joyce Archer, Edna May Holm, and Lorraine Heffernan. Will someone please tell George Ber nard Shaw that folks are still applaud- mg Shakespeare? Perhaps we can find a volunteer among Genevieve EngdJ Muriel Millar, Dolores Toniatti, Vir- ginia Rogers, Mary Ann Anderson, and Margaret Wolf, who attended a per formance of A Winter's Tale. At De Paul university, Patricia Cloherty saw Thornton Wilder's Ota- Town which is always fascinating iti cause, to be successfully produced, it needs the full mental participation of the audience in furnishing props and scenery. All this is by way of contrast to the usual vapid plays of this modem period which oftimes do not require their audiences to have minds at all Among the spectators at the Notre; Dame-Northwestern game were Betty Kelleher, Jeanne Kenny, Catherine Dwyer, Dorothy O'Connor, Colette Dwyer, Adeline Lococo, and Noreen Lowe. The stirrup and saddle set are all agog over the Chicago Horse Showj And that includes Mildred Hoffmaa, Marikay Hart, Juanita Hedger, Cecilia Godsel, Mary Curtin, Katherine Mala testa, Mary Ellen Martin, Mary Janaj Dukes, Angela Krieter, Dolores HobaaJ Betty Hoban, Jeanne Smith, June MnrJ phy, Mary Sheahan, and Mary Patricia DriskilL No matter where or how you spend your evenings in Chicago, you'll waotl delicious refreshments to make a gajj finale.
