Among the various authors whose lives and works have been discussedare Emerson and James Whitcomb Riley, and among modern plays that ofJohn Drinkwaters Abraham Lincoln. There has been one open meeting,a Contest of Wits, which proved to be original and entertaining. TheKleptomaniac was very successfully presented to the college on the sameevening as Aletheas offering.

C, founded in 1914, is com-posed of Junior and Sophomore girls interested in literature, music, and have been given this year on many phases of work, including suchsubjects as War Poetry, American Contem-porary Drama, and TellingStories to Children. In the line of dramatics, Alethea has successfullyproduced at Hathorn Hall a one-act farce entitled Just a Little Mistake,combining with the play of Seniority to make an Evening of Fun. Thepurpose of the club is broad enough to give play to the particular capacitiesof the members, and dances, readings and musical selections have beenenjoyed at the meetings.
