With elections pfactically completed we realize that the end of the school year is not so far away. We know that soon ^adUation will be here to take from our midst many girls valuable to tke school. The past year in review seems highly successful and this success is due in great part to the service and leadership of those whom we elected last year to be Salem officers for this term. Perhaps we have hot always given our full co-operation, have criticized too often, yet these girls have constantly striven to niake new improvements), to make Salem a better place to study, to learn, and to live in... To them we owe our heartfelt thahks. Hats off to the officers of 1938-1939! —M. M. THE INEVITABLE Why don’t you Ssleinites loosen up a little and pay your bills? You must pay them sotnetime, you know. Why not start now, so that there won’t be such huge bills at the end of the year? I know that it*s awfully 6asy td say “charge it” when you get something down at the 'V^ee Blue Inn or at the book store Or up iti the “Y’* store or over at the drugs, but don’t forget that you have to “pay up” later. So, start paying up now, why don't you? Th^ brgani^ationS here at school are under no obligation to caft^ charge accdurits. I'hey do it as;a courtesy and conven ience for you, btit very feiv of you seem to appreciate that at all. You really should fchargS things only when you absolutely can’t pay at the thdment; aiid then, as soon as you get some money, you should pay your bill — at least part of it. Why should the people who are kind enough to let you dijtirge things have to spend their time and energy rttfinihg you down to collect your ihoney ? And theil sometimes you are even rtide ^tiough to hide from the collector — that’s true! dishonesty, yoti know. Often you won’t give her the money when you have it because you’re too lazy to get tip and take it from your purse, Why don’t you surprise the people to whom you owe your bills, and surprise yourself too, by bringing your money to pay yoTlr bills, without beiftg chased and begged and chaSed and bagged fot' it till both collector and you are sick of heariiig about itf Certainly that would stow a much more admirable at- ttitudfe toward the inevitable. -S.

By Malcolm Cowley, Of cool sweet dew and radiance mild The moon a web of silence weaves In the still garden where a child Gathers the simple salad leaves. J ' A moon-dew stars her hanging hair. And moonlight touches her young brow; And, gathering, shei sings an air: “Fair as the wave is, fair art thou.” Be mine, I pray, a waxen ear. To shield me from hef' childish croon; And mine a shielded heart to her Who gathers simples of the moon.

BIRTHDAYS March 10 - 24 March 18 — Martha Louise Mehitt March 21 — Pat Barrow March 22 — Emma Brown Grantham March 23 — Boberta Kate Nash Elizabeth Trotlnan March 24 — Jessie Skinlier aOLF With the conclusion of th0 basket-ball season and the coming of wami, sunshiny spring days, our thoughts will soon be turning to out-door sports, ttere at Salem we have four holes for golf which are already fixed and ready to be used. By practicing on these holes, we can insure ourselves of a much lower score on any other course we play on. Moreover this sea son there, will he someone at the gymnasium every aftei'noon to supervise golf practice and to distribute balls and clubs. So let s all set, out to learn Or improve our golf this spring — and have lots of fun doing it. —L. R. Question of the We^ I, Several weeks ago there appeared 3 in the Salemite an editorial advo- Satifig teii iiiiiiiites between classes.' Our question for this Vfeek iK*es, from this editorial, for it is:. Do you think we should have ten min-' uteg between classes, or do you pre'- fer five liiiiiiitfet First, let ’3 take the opinions of Hfelfeii feSvage rind her fddwiiiatfe, Ann Watson. Iteieri, a inusic stu dent, says that she would like to have ten minutes bfetweeri classfes, especially since many girW have.i “straights’’ and need a rest in be tween. “We h&vfe to rust tob much in the short five minute period.” Then Anri, ah A. 6. student taking music bii tke side, Sdys that she. likes things tlie way they are. “If we have ten minutes, some woiild be late regardless, or would waste the time at the drug store. Also the extra niiniites would iieeessitate our. going to school until later in the day, or else the tteacherg would &ave their classes shortened five minutes. So she says’ that she prefers five minutes so she can “get things over witl. ’ ’ Mary Lee Cowper says “teii min uted, Or else put in soirie elevators.” As tiiiiigs are now, neSi-ly all classes are latfe getting started, she thinks, becailse oi those who have to come' from the gyin or science building; and she believes that a few more: minutes would relieve the strain. fella Walker Hill, Virginia Break-, ell, arid Alice Broughton agree that, as Horiie Economics students, they advocate ten minutes because of those who tave to rush from the Sci^lice labdratcify to the third floor dr Mdiri Hall. Sallie Emerson takes » definite no ” to the question of a ten-min. Ute intermission, becaiise classes would last until later in the day. “Five minutes i« plenty long enough: to go to the post office or book stote if people exert a little of their energy to hurry.” Martha Bowman, another A. B. student prefers the present set-up, because she feels that little more could be done in ten minutes than in five. “Might as well have classes and get them over with.” Louise Norris, another junior mus ic major says that five minutes ia eriongh, but too often the bell ring#' when the professor is in the middle of a paragraph, and it is hard to get out of all classes on time. Pat Mitchell, a Home Ec. Fresh man, would like to have ten minutes so that she could (change froiri a hot, gym suit into “some decent clothes for chapel oi classes.” Ten minutes give the mind a rest, especially if one is /afflicted with four straight classes. Mickey Craig, taking an A3, course, and t(ori4 itdttin, a bfiSiiiess student, would definitely like to have the ionger time, so that they can re turn to the rodm between classes. Doris Martin says that there is a ten-miriute period between classes at W. C. U. N. C., and she likes it bet ter than five toiriiites. Frances Watlirigton agrees that people would probably get to their classes sooner if they had five extra minutes. Jessie Skinner, another A. B. stu dent, dislikes the idea of having ten minutes, because she feels that ten minutes would be waated. Marion Norris and Betty BarbOur like things as they are, and Pat Bar row says, “It is immaterial to me. I’m usually late, anyhow! ” And thus we see the opinions of a group of Salem students on thia question. It seems that all dome Economics students long for ten min utes, while A.B. students like things as they are. Music students express different opinlorifl ori the subject.
