THE QUEST FOE
HAPPINESS —
The quest for happiness is a natural and worthy am
bition. It is wrong, however, to think of it as depending upon
multiplied possessions, selfish indulgence, or unrestricted pleas
ures. In all true happiness there is a large element of self-
denial and the forgetting of self. There are three simple rules
which, if followed daily, will keep a twinkle in your eye:'
1. Commit something to memory every day — something to
remember if you went blind!
2. Look for something beautiful every day — a leaf, a flower,
a «lond. Drink in every detail and see the loveliness all
through.
3. Do something for somebody every day. That’s an easy task
don’t you think, to bring such results! ’
—E. J.
Un de amis qui eat artiste m’a
raconte une histoire ironique. De
puis longtemps il d6sirait peindre &
I’huile le portrait d’un certain type
de peraonne, mais quand il essayait,
il trouvait que c ’etait impossible
parce qu’il n’avait pas une idee trSs
clairs du type qu’il voulait reprS
senter. Un jour qu’il dinait dans un
restaurant il vit par la feu§tre un
jeune homme qui fitait absciument
le type qu’il cherchait. Naturelle-
ment il en fut trgs heureux, et il se
precipita dehors pour lui parler. Le
garcon qui avait suscit6 I’interet de
mon ami etait de ceux que plupart
d’entro nous rencontrent en disant,
“Quel doramage!” Sea vetements,
qui etaient aussi convenables que
possible pour un hommo de sa eondi
tion, etaient rapes. Mon ami dit qu’il
n’oubliera jamais la figure radieuse
du pauvre Robert Martin quand il
lui offrit le mcdeste travail de poser
pour un portrait. Le jeune homme
alia ^ I’atelier avec mon ami et y
reata pris d’une heure. Mon ami
le paya ot lui dit de revenir ^ une
certaine date.
Au bout de quelques jours un beau
jeune homme entra dans I’atelier et
demanda M. Lamar. Mon ami ne
le reconnut pas, mais le pria de
s’asseoir. • Le jeune homme dit, “Eh,
bien, me voici pret k travailler.
“M. Lamar comprit. C’fitait Robert
Martin. Enchante d’avoir du tra
vail, il avait mis ses meilleurs
vetements. C’etait certainement un
changement trgs agrfiable, mais
maintenant ce n’ltait plus le type
qu’il fallait pour le portrait. Cette
petite histoire montre que ‘ ‘ Lea
vete ne font pas I’homme. ”
BLACK JACK DAVY
(Continued from Page 1)
a one hundred year old dulcimer,
lie sang hero “Single Gal” and
‘ ‘ Sourwood Mountain. ’ ’
The audience was so delighted by
the program that an encore was re
quested. Dr. and Mrs. Greer grac
iously responded with a very amus
ing song, “Black Jack Davy."
CONDUCT: GRADE A
Needless to say it was with great difficulty that anyone
m the audience Tuesday night heard an intelligible
amount of Mme. Undset’s lecture. It was indeed a great pity
that this great authoress’ broken English made her message
practically lost in air.
She had much to say. The members of the audience
showed by their rapt attention that they felt that they were
in the presence of a great personality. This attention, this
consideration was admirable and worthy. Praise has come
from many sources.
Mme. Undset realizes the barrier set up by her Nor
wegian accent, and she, no doubt, appreciated very much the
respect given her by the students and by the other members
of the audience.
—K. K.
WE INNOCENTLY
REMARK —
It was a ease of the pot calling
the kettle black this week when the
ambitious young Journal reporter,
one Clary Thcmipson, went so far as
to suggest just whose interview the
half hour with Mme. Undset was.
Since he so subtly .brought the mat
ter to light, we took it upon our
selves to become enlightened.
He’s not in ‘ ‘ Who’s Who” yet but
the city directory carries an impos
ing reference — Thompson, Clary,
reporter, Piedmont Publishing Com
pany, Y. M. C. A. He must be
nuking \rapid( advancement, how
ever, since he was later listed under
the Winsor apartments. Tame can
not long be kept undercover. Mr.
Thompson has been struggling here
since last September, migrating
from Burlington, where he was a
local reporter.
We would like to say in passing
that the thrill of the big city and
the presence of “two pretty Salem
girls” must have been the causc of
a slightly confused impression. ITe
may be a tough reporter, but if
that’s Walter Winchell, take me out
coach, take me out!
BLACK TALENT
IN TOWN
The man who won fame because
of his rapid talk and energetic
gait is in Winston-Salem today
making plans for a future appear
ance—Stepin Fetchet in person.
He went to a local bank to get
a check cashed. “You’ll have to g«
to the airport to get any money,”
a THURSDAY representative in
formed him. “All that’s available
is tied up there!”
LETTER TO BILL —
Alma M ’ia,
Each day, my darling, seems an
eternity without you. Each bell, and
there are just loads of bells, seems
to echo, come back, come back! come
back. As long as I shall draw
breath I shall remember our last
memorable night together when you
finally screwed up your courage and
— held my hand! I sit for hours
in my spick and span, draughty
room and reminiscence about our
first meeting — at Sunday school.
But the most heart melting memory
of all is the one when you held me
in your arms and said, .“Babe, you
are the cmly one for me! There’s no
other femme in the whole world for
me, kid.”
I miss you more than my weak
(at least Dr. Willoughby say they
are weak) words can say. I love
you, love you, love you — a little.
You have my heart,
The Shadow.
This is but a fragment of the
freshman ingenuity shown in Sojjho-
more Court. But, after all, the au
thor did gather her inspiration from
a perpectly gorgeous picture of a
perfectly gorgeous brute. Never
theless — orchids of the week to
Marian Burvenick!

Miss Martha O ’Keefe, of the
class of 1938, was married to
Blount Rodman of Was^hington, N.
C., Saturday morning, October 12
in the Methodist Church of Taze
well, Virginia. Helen O’Keefe,
member of the freshman class here
at Salem, was her sister’s maid of
honor.
The young couple will live in
Plymouth, N. C.
THE “Y’s” WORK
New Students!
Remember the recognition service
of the “Y,” Sunday afternoon at
5:00 o’clock. This is an important
service and one especially for the
new students. We feel that
after this service they will
really feel a part of the “Y” and
feel that they have an obligation
to the “Y.” We are asking that
all new students wear white. Every
member of the student body and
faculty is invited and we hope that
many will come.

DEPRIVATION
Little girl upon the hall
Ain’t you got no beaux at all?
Ain’t you got no heart so nice
That turns, at least excuse, to ice?
Ain’t yoii got a boy so sweet
Who thinks you ’re tops until he
meets
The girl who treats him like a heel
Who spends his mon and shuns his
spiel?
No tall blond lad or dark young
thing?
No one to teach you true love’s
sting?
A shame it is no one is near
To give you heartache, blues and
tear!
Little girl upon the hall —
Ain’t you got no beaux at all?
