At first the weeks were counted until the holidays; now many of us know not only just how many days it will be, but even the hours and maybe, by chance — if some one is very mathematical-minded and industrious — even the exact minutes. Of course, giving and receiving of presents is among the foremost of our expectations, along with the num erous dances and parties to attend — and no studying (we hope). But let’s not be too busy and wearied by our long day’s shopping to stop to remember just what Christmas really means — if only but for a minute. —M. J. ^ ANGELIC CLOTHES DON’T MAKE THE GIRL Have you noticed what a perfectly angelic Christmas this is going to be? There are angels everywhere — especially in the party dresses. The lovely frothy things are supposed to make the girls who wear them look like angels, but we wonder if those girls will act like the angels they represent. We hope that our Salem girls will continue to act like Salem girls during vacation. Girls should remember that people will judge their school by their action. So, please remember that vre are all r. R. S. members, and uphold Salem’s fine reputation even when you are not at school. —B. S. ON APPLE POLISHING “Did you see our favorite A. P. at work again todayt” No, we didn’t see her, but we can guess what happened. She probably took her place in the center of the front row and spent the whole class period smiling and agreeing with everything the teacher had to aay. Then, after clasa, it is more than likely that she went up to our dear teacher and told her how nice her hair looked fixed a new way. But maybe she was just tiding to continue the class discussion. We have seen her lingering around in the class-room after class has been dissmissed, and we have often wondered why she doesn’t make her brilliant comments 80 that we can be impressed too. We are not qualified to talk about Apple Polishing from a teacher’s point of view, but from our own humble one, it certainly is disgust ing. Maybe we are wrong when we value the respect of our classmates just as highly as the marks on our reports. And have you ever noticed that the girl who is the worst Apple Polisher is always the one who is most panicky the night before the examt SPORT OXFORDS Campus or Street $3.95 and $5.00 SIMMONS SHOE STORE COIN FRANCAIS Nogl pour les Franfals Nous sommes toujours presses. II y a tant de cartes postales i mettre a la poste, tant de cadeanx fi. acheter! Nous songeons avec joie aux vaean- ces, aux soirees et aux danses qul nous attendent. II y aura pour nous bien des dtrennea, beaueoup do grands festins, et tout ce que I’on desirait. Que nous sommes heur- euses! Mais pensons a nos amis 4 1’autre cotfe de 1’Atlantique, Comment pass- eront-ib le Noel? Auront-ils de grands festins? de celebrations? de beaux paquets remplis d’6trennes? Oui, il y aura de la gaitS en France-pour les cannons. Partout la grosse artillerie fera un grand bruit pour annoncer aux fran^ais qu’un autre maitre est venu regner sur eux et sur tout Ic monde. Peut-etre y aura-t-il des 6trennes- de bombesqui dfitruiront leur pays, dSchiront leurg maisons, arracheront les bras ou les jambes k leurs en- fants. Peut-Stre y aura-t-il des e616brations-des offices des morts. Peut-dtre y aura-t-il de grands fes tins en Prance-pour les vautours qui feront ffite des carcasses des sol- datSj des enfants, et des femmes. Oui, les Fran^ais, comme nous, auront un Noel. Pour nous, c’est une fete d’amour; i»ur eux, une fSte de haine. Pour nous, c’est un Noel de vie; pour eux, un Noel de mort. Eugenia Baynes.
