Women of the Week
JOY FI^ANAGAN
Joy is not in the way she talks;
for she does precious little of it.
Joy . is not in the way she walks,
nor the way she plays hockey; not
in the clothes
3 she wears, or
j the way she
dances. Joy is
not an impres
sion of colors
or odors or
mists or Spring
morns. She runs
deeper than
impressions or
flitting
thoughts ... Joy is beautiful brown
eyes, a crooked smile, and the deli
cate rise and fall of color in her
cheeks. If you have watched her
talk with her eyes; you don’t have
to know that she has an unrulj
shock of curly brown hair or that
she is just this side of v'ery pretty
or that she is short, cute of figure,
and athletic-minded. If you have
watched her grin that shy grin, you
don’t need to ask what she loves
to do. You know without asking
that she loves to sit quietly and
listen to bull sessions; that she likes
to dream secret dreams; that she
likes to whisper the words of a
pretty Keats; and that she likes to
laugh with and at Stu, the room
mate. You know, too, that she has
friends—and lots of them. And you
know that she is just now trying to
fight down a beautiful, but imprac
tical principal, . . rather than
be less, cared not to be at all.”
By sotae strange quirk, Joy is shy
and also a big sister . . . the little
sister, says Stu, “looks like Joy
only she’s sweet;” the little brother
is “awfully bad, but cute;” and
the littlest sister, aged five, is an
impish prototype of Joy. Joy’s home
town is Greenville; and her home js
out where you can smell the country
or walk to it, if you like. Her
mother picks out frilly slips; her
papa has oodles of fun, and can’t
be convinced of ;i thing.
Joy is sensitive and sympathetic,
despite the tough-gal act; she is as
stubborn as a mule, but rallies to
reason; just now, she’s reveling in
being Sophomoric; and she always
plays one good game of hockey. She
jaunts down to the Hill on occas
ion, or waits impatiently for some
courter about the campus; but she
doesn’t spend too much time think
ing about the boys. She is forever
wandering about to Third floor, to
MARTHA MOOEE HAYES
Not at a burlesque theater, not at
a county fair; but at the opera, at
concerts and recitals—you’ll find
Martha Moore Hayes, third door’s
kitten on the keys from Charlotte!
S h e’s poised,
demure, s i n -
cere, conseien-
tious, and
good - natured.
She spends
most of her
time in the mu
sic hall keep
ing her fingers
limbered u p ;
but she always
finds time for
those fifteen
minute intermissions to play cards
—be it bridge, dirty-eight, or bridge.
In other words, the “spots” on the
cards fascinate her.
Her love life is very secret. She
wouldn’t display her man’s picture
to anyone but herself. But that’s
all right, too; because it doesn’t
change our opinion of her.
In case you haven’t seen her
around; dash up to 309, and you’ll
find her sitting on the first bed on
the left with a beautiful green
sweater hanging from two ivory
knitting needles . . . Knitting is
another of her favorite pass times.
If you glance to the right, you’ll
see her roommate, Marianne Ever
ett, from Fayetteville. Incidental
ly, they were in on the fruit-basket
turnover on third; and they seem
to be mighty satisfied now.
One of Martha Moore’s most out
standing characteristic is her ability
to play the harp. She’s one of the
two harp majors in Salem; and be
cause of her exceptional talent in
piano, she is one of the rare fresh
men to study directly under Doctor
V^ardell. No days of rest or romp
ing or relaxation for Martha Moore
. . . she has straight classes to keep
her busy.
It’s not every day that you find
a freshman with so much maturity
. . . or so much just plain down-to-
earth-ness. She’s the serenity in
chaos . . . tlie loyalty in distrust . . .
the sympathetic smile in heart
break . . . and the courage in de
feat. Slie personifies all that’s
good and fine . . . what greater trib
ufe could we offer?
MARTHA’S
MUSIN0S
Sister’s, or to Bitting . . . dropping
in for a moment and flitting on. So
Joy . . . you have to be quick and
keen to catch her; but you are en
riched when you do.
’POSSUMS BEWARE
SNAKE^ARE COMING
All Salem students who are mem
bers of the Moravian Cliurch, asso
ciate members of the Home 'Morav
ian Church, or who attend the Sun
day school there, are invited to a
’possum hunt at Arden Farm, Sat
urday, November 21. There’ll be
’possums and dogs, plenty of food,
and all the fun that sparks an
autumn hunt.
The Young Peoples Department of
the Home Moravian Church will be
hosts and hostesses for the occas
ion and, of course, there will bo
chaperones.
Be sure to notify Miss Lawrence
before Wednesday if you are going.
Details concerning dates and trans
portation will be posted later.
WHY NOT GET
IN THE KNOW?
Panama has recently revised its
system of university credits to fa
cilitate transfer of students to
North American universities with
out the formality of special exami
nations.
The first university in the western
hemisphere was founded in Santo
Domingo in 1538.
—MUSIC-
organ. “Without Tour Lov«,” a
Spanish love song by Sandoval, was
charmingly sung by Marian Gary.
Margaret Lenbach closed the pro
gram with two modern “Preludes”
by Shostakovitch, op. 34 nos. 2 and
6, and showed us that modern music
can be both subtle and humorous
and thoroughly enjoyable.

Dear Gossips,
We’ll all have a moment’s silence
for the dead souls who week-ended
so hard last wek-end. Among the
corpses that were most obvious, we
found: K. MANNING, JEAN FUL-
ON, JENNY JENKINS, MARY
ALDEESON, and KACKY TEAYN-
HAM . . . and I’ve been mefaning to
ask NOEMIE, COOTIE, and CAEO-
LYN WEST if they would be in
terested in a ride back this week-end
Guess they would?
MES. INGRAM flashed in Wed
nesday morning, after a great vaca
tion. She seemed to like playing the
part of a wife for a change. Her
trip back would have been most in
teresting to the remaining old maids
of Salem ... I hear the train was
filled with “shave-tails. ”
LIB WILLIAMS got two pictures
from Jack Me. Monday! To go
back to him and forget the other
Jack, or not to go back to him? . , .
that is the question. While we are
mentioning pictures, we might add
that VIEGINA MacMUREAY has a
new one of Bobby now.
MAETHA HUMBERT got a call
from Lemon, uesday night ... a
date for this week-end. Sister
BARBAEA continues to get those
sweet Itters from Dan.
CEIL seems to be having cut
trouble. No “Little Doc” for
Thanksgiving this year, Ceil. We
wish to give you consolation . . .
and you, too, Yelverton.
LIB GRIFFIN was adorned with
an orchid last Sunday; and her man,
Hurst, got a new Buick Convertible.
My, My, what a profitable week
end for those two! . . . The rest of
the week-enders merely got circles.
I saw John Meiner last week-end,
and he said to tell EDITH LONG
EST “hello” real sweetly
what could that mean?
“SLIM-JIM’' MILDRED LEE
really is a pile of bones these days.
Notice, won’t you . . . Work (?) and
plays are great institutions ... I
think I ’11 produce a play for a while,
and see what it can do for me.
Martha’s Musings would like to be
serious for a minute to tell NANCYi
KENNY how sorry we were to hear
of her recent tragedy. Nancy, you
hav« our sympathy.
From Strong I hear that CLEO
KLUBB hit Charlotte with a great
big bang las week-end. The hostess
es, BULL & ANNE SAULS, were
the judges of the snaking contest.
MARY ELLEN had her ideas too;
and, unanimously, Buck McNeely
was voted the Casanova of the Week.
LIB GUDGER is still raving over
her week-vend at State . . . humm . .
week-end' agan ... it has made
FEANCES HENSDALE has a hard
time deciding between Von, Gregg,
and Bob . . . llaybe the long dis
tance calls will tell the tale . . .
One never can tell.
SUT did Fayetteville np right this
week-end. She and Shuford reaUy
painted the town . . . from what We
hear, he still heads the list.
If EDITH SHAPIEIO’S date at
U. N. C. last week-end does him jus
tice ... he's a Second Sterlyn Hay
den!
We are all wondering now if
NONA LEE COLE ik taking an ex
tended honeymoon . . . And what
did Henry think of the ring, Nona?
Must run get beat in the shins by
a hockey stick . . . stiffly yours,
Martha.

-MISS ELLA—
were from the Salemite, and that
we wanted an interview. She said,
“I can’t talk to you now or show
you anything. I’m tiirough. I have
just put out my fire.”
We knew we were just before
being put out; so we took a quick
look around. We were in a pretty
little room without much furniture
except a couple of chairs, a table
in the middle of the floor, and a
big iron cook-stove in the corner.
The walls were thick and w^hite-
washed, and the doors were low and
broad and hinged with beautiful
old iron hardware. To the rear were
two huge windows which looked out
over the pretty little garden in the
bacfcl of the house.
All around the walls were hooks
for hanging up the candle molds
while the wax hardened, and most
of the hooks were filled. Miss Ella
fitted into the scene perfectly. Her
dress was a grey printed cotton,
and over it she wore a voluminous
white apron. She held an old iron
kettle in her hand, and she looked
for all the world like someone out
of the pages of old Salem’s history.
Friday afternoon the Candle Tea
will be given in the Brother’s
House to celebrate the end of can
dle-making. Then once again Miss
Ella will show everybody the can
dle-making method, and again she
will tell her stories' of the Little
Red Man and the other strange
characters whose spirits still walk
the streets of Salem. For Miss Ella
is becoming as much a part of tra
dition as the Little Red Man him
self!
