Friday, November 22, 1940. THE SALEMITE Page Three. FASHION S FROLIC UNDER THE BUTTERCUPS Onee not so long ago there lived a little girl named Einakie with her unicorn named Henrietta,, and Einakie and Henrietta lived under a buttercup in the middle of the forest. All day long they played at keeping house and at going to school. But Einakie was very sad. And poor Henrietta didn’t know what to do to keep her little mis erable little creature if one ever was, and life hung heavily on her shoulders. tress happy. Einakie was a mis- Henrietta was simply frantic and one day in the woods when life was almost more than she !Ould bear, she encouterede a strange sight. .. a chiffon tree. And being a hospit able soul Henrietta stopped to chat. For the tree was obviously a new comer in that vicinity, And at last Henrietta discovered that the tree Was acquainted with some very ex cellent and capable psychologists •.. in fact the tree, whose name was Lewis, had dabbled a bit in psy chology itself and together the two friends figured out what would be nice for Einakie . . . and what Would make her happy. One of the questions that Lewis, the tree, asked was, “What sort of clothes does Einakie weart” And Henrietta burst out laugh ing. j ! i"4fj “Clother? Clothest Ha . . . Hee • ..Ha . . . Hal Einakiet Why Ei nakie never had on a stitch of clothes in all her life . . . Ha . .. Hee . . . Ha . . . Ha!” With that Lewis practically fell over. “No clothes,” said he. “Every woman w^nts clothes. Every little girl wants clothes. Even if she is only two inches high she must have clothes. Be off. G? to ^he city. Buy your little mistress some clothes.” So off trotted Henrietta . . . tlick ... tiack i . . tlick - - - tlack off to the city. And in and out of shops she trotted as only a unicorn can trot. First there were dresses to con sider . . . There was a red wool shirt waiat for $25. It had a blue suede jerkin and was simply won- derful-looking (1) Then for a suit. The decision went to a herringbone tweed about $30—brown and green (2). Henrietta was happy; but a unicorn is never satisfied and Hen rietta just had to find a dinner dress for Einakie. That wasn't hard. She chose a black taffeta shirtwaist dress with a striped taf feta jerkin. The skirt was long and full (3). And the coat to go with it was red wool, double breasted with a tiny mink collar. Both were under $30. (4). “Oh happy day,” breathed Hen rietta, as only a unicorn can breathe. “There is only one other thing that I must get.” And with that she chopped across the street and bought a silk house coat. It was blue and white striped with red lining and it cost only $8.95. (5). With that Henrietta trotted home and Einakie lived happily ever after under the buttercup. —E. S. G. (1) Montaldos.

Right now our social calendar and social sentiments seem to be pretty much agog . . . What with the Duke-Carolina upset, the rein- terating problem of two Thanksgiv ings, and the going-home to mama epidemic; we find ourselves in the inevitable muddle. In order to pre sent our book of accounts in a lu cid form ’twould seem that we should resort to the outline. (See IVeshman English, Down's section.). I- Ihike-Carolina game. We hear that Doris Schaver is still stumbling around in a dream • • . Couldn't have been the score that hit her that hard . . . The Kemsies and the Carrs and the Coles were there, and there was a suite, sweet dinner party for their roommates. Esther and Marvin braved both Weather and fatigue and sat through all four quarters . . . Kath.- arine King and date topped the game by going to Leaksville and going horsing. Ain't it romantiquet •.. But don't hold regrets if you didn’t get there—'Twas the grid iron classic they’d hoped for. Ac cording to Thursday one scalper Was down to 25c per ticket with' a drink thrown in . . . And that ain’t all that Thursday said—Should be called “purely Im—personal” . . . II. Salem Day at Davidson. We understand that Katherine Snavely gets the prize for winding with the cutest date. There must l>e something in a name—^now. But she wouldn’t even let him come Over . . . Betty Barbour adhered to the “safety in numbers” theory. She had two . . . And Iiena—Lena Winston—did we nil see her in the paper descending the bus steps? Wasn’t that just too—cute . . . III. Thanksgiving. Myra Blunt is planning her every minute with Howard (58 Carolina team) . . . Casserole is tuning up On dear old Windsor again.

Maybe Thanks giving’ll get it out of everybody’s system—even if the moon won't be full . . . We'll be looking for Rat- terson, Belcher, and Mary O’Keefe in the news reels of the Army- Navy game. Don't disappoin); us gals . . . Make yourselves obvious.. You're our standard bearers—you know . . . PoUy Herman takes a week instead of a week-end for the Democratic Thanksgiving and a wedding the family. Did Roosevelt set the date of that toot . . . IV. Miscellaneous.

Whatta place I What- ta week! One more like this last one and we’ll all be ready for tombstones and lilies . . . Now, let’s see, was it Monday or a year ago that those All Americans swooped down across our Salem hockey field and blazed a trail to the goal? Well, whenever it was, it’s the first real hockey we’ve ever seen . . . The only French we remembered from high school was monsieur and men ardent, but that didn’t keep us from laughing with the rest of ’em at the French play Tuesday morning. As a matter of fact, we’d almost pay money to see Louise Bralower do that strip tease again . . . Eleanor Roosevelt had better look to her laurels as far as this business of public speak ing is concerned. It has been a long time since we’ve enjoyed an expanded chapel as much as we did the speech contest . . . Methinks that ye olde Salem College will soon be standing in the midst of a young forest at the rate this tree- planting business is going. We real ly never believed that our nonchal ant senior.s could show such con cern for a bit of vegetation . . . Confidentially, we believe that the roses of the week go to the Pier rettes for Hay Fever. Another play like that one and our case of hys terics will become chronic . . . But all this only begins things. Satur day night we'll make a last minute dash for the bus and go with the crowd to hear Mr. Pinzo at the Civic Music Concert . . . And you couldn’t pay us to stay away from the Junior’s waffle supper Sunday night ... . You know, when you think about it, this has been a pret ty exciting week. ter—was your slip showing? . . . Little Yelverton is having Mac- -Joe-Mav troubles again — and lov ing it! Maybe she should oughta learn to give only one date a night —sometimes — And Ceil, of course, is having hardware trouble again . .. Fact she lost the Delta Tau Delt pin that used to serve for a top button ... It must be those Virginia boys—or maybe it’s Salem girls. Margie and Ewing are not hearing from their week-end squires —and worrying about it . . . Re member the handsome blond at So phomore court? Well, he’s a-coming this week-end. Address all applica tions for introductions to Miss Eve lyn Bichard . . . Johnsie Moone is practicing up on the “ha Conga” so she can give the Charlotte boys the good old ONE-TWO when she gets there.

That the Snavelys of the Brant Snavelys and Hugh Snavely of the Bookstore Snavelys have an eluant time addressing each other very formally when ever they meet as Mr. and Mrs. with the emphasis very much on the Snavely. That someone on the stage at the speech contest Wednesday should have tried to expound a theory or develop a mathematical formula to explain just why five out of those six girls wore some shade of bine. That only those people who know A. H. Eller, Jr., can appreciate his opening remarks in “Hay Fever” — “I’m in training. I don’t drink.” glad I don’t make my living this way—just do it for the good of the old Salemlte and when Chub gets that look in here eye. Sprunt thought she had things all worked out last week-end at Carolina and so she had but Davidson happened to turn up too. Winston-Salemites are wondering just what Maxy Louise Rousseau did to James G. to make him ‘ ‘ feel so good ’ ’ Saturday night . . . Now that last week-end is over we’re just wondering if the high school romance of Jack Davis and Lil Sutton is about to blossom forth again. Some of us in S. Hall keep wondering why the benches in front of the telephone seems so in teresting to Sue Forrest every morning . . . Clyde couldn't have anything to do with it. We heard tell that Doria Shores’ Thanksgiv ing plans include a trip to Penn. Overhear(l: Eugenia remarking that as long as she can’t take Jake to the dan^e she will just take his best friend . . . Again we heard that Margarget HoUbrook is quite happy these days 'cause Jack is flunking—such loyalty! . . . Every body’s expecting Becky Kester to come back from her ramblings around the wrecks at Georgia Tech with a bouncing engineer . . . Last o£ all a good note to end on is that Barbara Lasley is still writing Jack Kenner’s name on all her books... SALEMITES ‘UPTOWN MEETING PLACB" ANCHOR CO., inc. Fourth At Trade Sts.
