THE SALEMITE
HANDS ACROSS THE
TABLE
Dear Miss Builder Upper,
I went home for tlie Christmas
holidaj’S feeiing like a cool million.
Honestly,' I’d never looked better,
ily new ijermanent was nothing less
than a golden glinted halo. And my
skin! — not even the smallest sug
gestion of a blemish. Of course, I’d
paid a dear price for the peach bloom
effect, having gone sweet-less for
weeks before hand. 1 was slim, too,
and thought 1 was a budding Sheba
until .... Well, it’s like this. The
handsomest man about-to%vn came to
see me the first night I was home
Instead of complimenting me on my
hair and complexion as I had hoped
he would, he kept glancing at my
hands, holding the bridge cards
across the table from him. I cau’t
say that I saw what the attraction
was, because my fingers looked like a
brick mason’s. My nails were pain
fully cracked and broken, and the
cuticle was ragged and red looking.
Worst of all, my polish was on in
sorry, uneven streaks. Why can’t I
get it on evenly like some people
do? Oh, I was miserably hand- con
scious all evening. I was hurt and
couldn’t keep ray mind on the game
at all because I somehow sensed that
he was disappointed in me. Of course,
he didn’t come back to see me again,
just as the heroes in the Listerine ads
don’t.
What’ll I do?
Sorrowfully,
Salem Senior.
Wednesday, January 16, 1935.
MORE TRUTH THAN
FLATTERY.
Miss Blanche Stockton
Dear Salem Senior,
Some men, indeed, most men, are
acutely hand-conscious. In fact, I.ve
had several go so far as to tell me
that they can fairly accurately judge
a girl’s character by the w’ay she
cares for her hands and nails. Un
tidy nails mean an untidy liouse-
keeper nine times out of ten. Re
member that, when you ’re husband-
snaring
Here's a routine that I Iiojk; you’ll
follow from now' on.
During these cold days, don’t fail
to rub a good non-sticky, penetrating
lotion into your hands after every
washing.
Once a week before retiring for
the night it’s a good idea to mas
sage warm olive oil W'ell into your
hands, slip a pair of old cotton gloves
on, and then hop into bed, of course,
without removing gloves or oil until
morning.
It will be absolutely necessary
that you give yourself a thorough
manicure at least once every w’eek.
Use a lotion-tipped orange stick well
soaked with soothing hand lotion to
push your stubborn cuticle back. (It
would be fine if you could perform
this little act every day until you
get the cuticle under control.)
Faithful use of olive oil should
help correct the brittle nail condition
as will proper filing. Remember to
use the smooth side of an emery
board, and never a steel file, in shap
ing your nails.
Buy liquid polish with a creme
base. It goes on smoothly without
streaking if you don’t get too liberal
an amount on the brush when apply
ing.
One more thing—be sure to mas
sage cold cream or a cuticle cream
around the base of your nails every
night like a good girl.
Best of luck with your lily whites
when you flash them gracefully in
the fastidious gaze of Mr. Handsome
when Easter comes!
Yours,
B. Upper.
If it’s candy, hockey sticks, or a
“Weiner” roast that is your heart’;
desire, you have only to see Miss
.Stockton to have your wish granted-
Miss Stockton must have her cal
endar marked with red circles
around important dates, for she
never seems to forget them. On
Halloween are we not greeted in the
dining room by merry jack o’lant
erns and food to match? When we
have forgotten that George Wash
ington ever had a birthday are we
not cheered from low spirits to h;gh
by decorations and food that old
George himself would envy? And
in spite of the heresay—it doesn’t
take very much to put a college girl
into good spirits. It is not every
college dietitian that will so artis
tically shape a cookie or make
homely grapefruit handsome, as does
our Miss Stockton, and yet through
it all. Miss Stockton, how do you
stay so calm, when most housewives
would tear their hair at the thought
of serving six guests?
Miss Blanche Stockton graduated
from Salem in 1924 with a B. S.
degree in Home Economics. She was
associated with one of the public
schools until Salem decided that it
couldn’t do without her any longer.
EXAMINATION
SCHEDULE
Mr. Snavely
Rightly occupying just as big a
place in our affections as Miss Stock
ton and her cookies are Mr. Snavely
and his notebooks. Who wraps up
packages to be mailed; who ties up
teacher’s Christmas present at the
last minute; who cashes the wel
comed check from home; who
charges the irristible bracelet before
the check comes; who lets the var
ious campus organizations sponsor
profitable days at his store; who
does anything for a Salem girl from
putting the best beau’s “pitcher”
in a new frame to searching the
tOM-n over for a special pen point
which he hasn’t in stock? ^.'he man
of all these trades and kindnesses
could be none other than Mr. Snave
ly at the bookstore. He is the very
personification of accomodation and
patience, and even if Salem students
are guilty of dashing in early in the
morning only half awake in demand
of a pack of paper and dashing
thoughtlessly out again without one
word of thanks, just the same they
have the deepest appreciation and
gratitude in their hearts and recog
nize a good man when they see one.

Temperate waters near Greenland

An Idea of Size
From actual e.xperlment It has
been proven that the shell of an
average ostrich egg n il] hold 18 or
dlnary hens’ eggs.
It’s a wonder some efficiency ex

to Niagara Falls to save train fare.
One of the biggest events of the
year will be the basket ball game 1
between our manly co-ed and the
hefty male members of the faculty,
which will be played soon. It will be
“fetching” to see such athletes as
McEwen, Curlee, Dow-ns, Schofield,
and Campbell tearing up and down
the floor of the “Hut.” The mem
bers of the co-ed team will probably
be Stone, Plaster, F. Campbell, Blum-
enthal, and Dunford. This interest
ing contest is being sponsored by
the Athletic Association. More will
be said about the game later.
We hear that the co-eds, headed
by Albert Blumenthal, wish to chal
lenge the girls in a basket ball game
using girls’ rules. Jlore power to
youse guys!
The present Junior Class certainly
does miss the fine playing of F.
Scales, J. Eondthaler, and V. Lyons.
We hope some team is using them
this season.
“Xeely” Maslin has promised
faithfully to come down to practice
basket ball. Here’s hoping she will
keep that New Year’s resolution.
Gertrude Schwalbe, Eachel Carroll,
ad Mildred Carter are on the side-
lies this season because of recent
appendix operations.
Willena Couch is not only a cham
pion tennis player, and star hockey
player, but also an excellent backet
ball player. She is going to cause
the upper classmen plenty of worry.

HOW NOT TO LIGHT A BRIDGE TABLE
Think of trying to play bridge by the light of two candles, stuck in
bottle tops. Yet that is the equivalent of the light in many homes
— a level of illumination that will make any party drag.
For gayer, livelier parties, use an indirect portable lamp. It pro
vides the ideal light shadowless and glareless — for playing bridge
and other games in comfort . . . and an equally efficient light for
a quiet evening of reading.
Phone Southern Public Utilities Co. and ask for a free demonstration
of the new type direct-indirect lamp in your home.
