THE SALBMITE THERE IS SOMETHING IN THAT. I am unsophisticated; Nothing bores me. I have even enjoyed one or two of Harold Bell Wright’s stories. Ar^ I laugh over prohibition jokes. I never worry about the down-trod den masses, And yet I’m always broke. I read Main Stret and felt sorry or the author. He must be a very unhappy man— fearfully sophisticated, you know. I thrill all over when I hear the Star Spangled Banner played, And then I always go and enlist. (Twice I've done it just that way) A good, close ball game gets me every time. I guess its because I’m unsophisti cated; nothing bores me. But, for all that, I’m happy! —Society Yorke, in Life. SALEM VISITORS.

The only thing to remem ber is to notify Mrs. Weathers the Thursday or Friday before. The college has really needed a tea room and now that it has one, let us all show our appreciation by dropping in there in the afternoons from four to six. I He Could Prove It. ! “Well,” said the waiter to the stu dent, who had just had his coffee cup refilled for the seventh time, “you must be very fond of coffee.” “Yes, indeed,” answered the stu dent, “or I wouldn’t be drinking so much water to get a little.”—Lehigh Burr- DAVIDSON FIRE! Last Monday at the cold and early hour of 4:30 o’clock in the morning, all Davidson and the surrounding country was aroused by lusty shouts of “Fire! Fire!” This time it was real fire, too. The historic cupalo of Chambers building was in flames. From there the fire burned steadily downward; yet the men who roomed in the two wings of the building had plenty of time to remove most of their personal belongings and also much of the equipment of the physics labora tory. The onlookers and students witness ed the fiery destruction of that grand old building with sorrow, not only be cause they realized what a great ex pense it would be for the Presby terian church to rebuild it again, but also because of their love for the stately building around which so many tales of mystery and tradition have been woven, and in which many of their fathers and grandfathers be fore them roomed. Among the charred ruins there still remains the four majestic pillows which, by their dignity and age, stand for the “tradi- Relieving Her Aanxiety. Old Lady—^“Oh, conductor, please stop the train.

THE THANKSGIVING BANQUET. (Continued from page one) then about basket ball. He finished by saying that his speech consisted of three parts: the beginning, the body and the end, and that he had come to the end. The class songs were sung with unusual spirit, after which each class president responded to the graceful introduction of Miss Griffin. The Craven loving cup was pre sented to Martha Matheson, captain of the winning team by Dr. Rond- thaler. Her response to his presenta tion speech was witty and original.

I wonder if every girl knows the very best place to go when she is hun gry and wants something good to eat. If she has been to the College Tea Room on Main street just a little be low the R&ndthaler’s, she does; but, if not, she has something to leam. As for the tea room itself, it is most attractively arranged and, in answer to the question whilh natur ally arises in regard to what is served, I may say that the menus are made essentially to appeal to college girls. What with sandwiches, chicken pie, salad, chicken salad, rolls, lemon pie, various kinds of cake, tea and hot chocolate, it seems to me there is a wide range for many different kinds of appetites. Watch the menu on the bulletin board in Main Hall, for it is constantly changing. Easily Explained. The fancy shop proprietor had ran- s.acked his shop in an endeavor to please thr rather exacting v.’oman who wanto'^. to puvf'hase a •present. “Now, are you sure this is genuine crocodile skin,” she inquired, critically examining a neat little satchel. “Quite, madam,” was the reply. “You see, I shot the crocodile myself.” “It looks rather dirty,” remarked the customer, hoping to get a reduc tion in terms. “Yes, madam,” replied the shop- kesper, “that is where the animal struck the ground after it fell off the tree.”—London Telegraph. No Chance. “Judge,” cried the prisoner in the dock, “have I got to be tried by a woman jury?” “Be quiet,” whispered his counsel. “I won’t be quiet!
