Women of the Week
JUNE BROWN
"You don”t HAVE to be crazy
to stay here, but it helps a —- of a
lot!” might be her theme song.
She’s one of the cutest, craziest
little pieces we’ve seen anywhere.
She digs up World War I shoulder
length ear-rings and wears them for
lapel pins . . . she buys scores
of inexpensive little shoes and re
decorates them with expensive lace
bows . . . she nestles transformat
ions in between her own fair locks
and pretends she’s Godiva . . . and
if she had a bright red fire-truck,
she’d drive it right up the steps of
Main Hall to her ten-twenty class.
She’s June Brown . . . there can
be no mistake, and no successful
imitator.
Do you remember those first
grueling days of getting acquainted
^with new studen'ts? Do you re
member taking your first pet dis
like out on June Brown because she
said what she wanted to say in an
offensively! pert taanner? because
she assumed; her place without look
ing either left or right? And do
you remember the gradual break
down of prejudice when she went
out Good Samitan-ing with the
exact same nonchalance that she
used for sitting languidly in the
Smoke House? when she revealed
a genuine willingness to work on
peoples’ hair and turn out a truly
professional job? (i.e. Fran Good-
winfs extraordinjarily jgood-looking
cut) when she snapped you from
despondency to gaity without even
trying! So the subtle transcendence
from pet peeve to i>et character.
It was an inevitable transcendence
. . . such keenness of observation
and twist of phrase could hardly go
unnoticed very long. And besides
that she simply COULDN’T be ig
nored . . . not with those four-inch
heeled baby blue shoes and vio
lently plaid skirts in simultaneous
weai-ing ... or that fur coat which
hasn’t yet been determined as to
species ... or that delicate little
sort of Ida Lupino face.
Perhaps she’s not to you what she
MARY AI.DEESON
. Every personality has a perfect
setting. If such a setting were
picked for Mary Alderson, it would
be easy to imagine a sprawling
white house set in a wide green
lawn—with stables and horses to
the back, and hills to the front.
Inside the house, there would be
a spacious and sunlit room—deco
rated with odd and beautiful treas
ures gathered by Mary’s own
whims. A devoted, if incompetent,
staff of help would do the household
tasks—even to supervising a ward
robe composed mainly of trailing
hostess gowns and smelly riding
clothes. Over all this estate would
Mary preside—serene, hospitable,
and gracious.
For you see—Mary Alderson is a
lady—one of the few remaining la
dies in such a time. Her personal
ity is composed of such traits as
elegance, charm, and poise—that
make the more bourgeoise envy her.
Her personally is complemented
by her looks. Tall, thin, pointed of
face, with a tilt to the nose and
eyes; she resembles Katie Hep
burn’s younger sister. Yet, in
spite of an attractive face—one of
the most outsanding features of
Mary’s appearance is her walk.
She fairly floats over the ground—
swinging her long limbs as rhyth
mically as if her being were set to
music. One feels, while watching
her, that perhaps there could be
sheer joy in just moving from one
place to another.
Most people on this campus al
ready know Mary because of her
graciousness, good looks—and May
Court election. Therefore, this
sketch is not to introduce her—but
to say that it is very, vei-y nice to
have her among us.
is to. me . . . but you can’t escape
an impression of some category;
and I’ll lay ten to one that your
June Brown too means laughter and
friendliness and originality!
CONTINUES TO STRESS IMPORT
ANCE OF PROPER BUiND
TNG IN GIVING SMOK
ERS WHAT THEY
WANT
A tribute to American war work
ers in the great industries like the
railroads, the telephone, and avia
tion, will be the feature of a new
series of adverftsements for Chester
field cigarettes. The new series will
run in newspapers coast-to-coast and
in Hawaii and Alaska starting the
first week in February.
The first advertisement in the new
series pays tribute to the railroad
workers of the country. Its caption
“They Deliver the Goods” described
the grand job the railroads are doing
in keeping the trains rolling and see
ing to it that troops, supplies and
essential traffic get the right of way.
The ad says Chesterfields, too,
“deliver the goods....they give smok
ers what they want because of their
right combination (blend) of the
world’s best cigarette tobaccos.'’
Similarly, another ad in the series
shows a picture of a transport pilot
and tells how\ America’s 700,000
aviation workers make and deliver
planes and other necessities to our
fighting men all over the world.
The ad points out how important
cigarettes are to men in the service
and says, “That’s why billions of
milder, better-tasting Chesterfields
are being shipped by train and truck
and ship and plane to every corner
of the globe.” ,
Each ad carries prominently a
strong reminder to “Back up the
man in uniform: Buy War Bonds—
Wj-ite Letters.” When a similar re
minder was featured in a Chester
field ad early in January this year,
the Liggett & Myers Tobaceo Com
pany, who make Chesterfields, re
ceived a lot of favorable comment
about it from the Treasury Dept.,
from the general public and partic
ularly from men in uniform, who
like nothing better than to get let
ters from their relatives and friends
back home.
LOVE - IN AND OUT
LATIN CLUB THEME
Alphalota Pi te invitat ut socia
fias et convenias a. d. XVI Kal.
Feb. in aedificio L. W. Bitting
(7 P. M.)-thus ran an in vitiation
which members of the Latin Club
received last week. Those who had
not taken Latin in three years got
oi|t their L'atinj dictionaries and
discovered that there was to be a
Latin club party Monday night in
Bitting.
The program opened with a
discussion of the Eoman equivalent
of Valentine’s day by Dr. Minnie J.
Smith, sponsor of the club. Mary
Ellen Byrd entertained the guest
with a dissertation on “How to
Fall Out of Love” after the fashion
of Ovid. Then followed the main
citation of the new members.
After President Peggy Jane White
welcomed the new members, refresh
ments were served in front of the
open fire.
The Editors regret that limited
space last week made it impossible
to print the names of girls initi
ated into Alpha Iota Pi, the Latin
club, February 17. Those girls are:
Mil Avera, Lib Beckwith, Sarah
Lee Brandon, Betty Byers, Eva Mae
Dorton, Ann- Douthit, Dot Farrell,
Mary Frances Garrou,. Marie Grif
fin, Mary Heefner, Jeanne John
son, Lib Jones, Dorothy Kiser, Jane
Lovelace, Virginia Mclver, Kather
ine Manning, Mary Page, Lynn Wil-
liard.
FOURTEEN POINTS
ABOUT EDUCATION
(A. O. P.)
We clipped an article from a Miss-
ssippi paper which w0 put before
our aspirants. It contained 14 points,
comparable to Wilson’s '14 points’
and might serve to inspire others:
1. No writer can create? another
writer. The talent must be born
within you aa must that ‘nose for
news’.
2. In order to write well you will
hav« to suffer, absorti, reflect, and
take a full course in that brutal
school of first-hand experience.
3. You will have to labor like a
slave, forgetful of all ordinary
working hours.
4. In order to write well you must
first learn all the heights and
dephths of life.
5. You must be able to tell your
story in the simplest sort of way.
Make every word count.
6. When you finish your story,
quit.
7. When, you start to writef, you
have just commenced getting an
education.
8. It takes feeling to say any
thing worthwhile.
9. Writing consists of forty years
of taking in and ten of giving out.
Oliver Goldsmith.
10. You must learn people, and
you cannot learn people like you
learn a text-book.
11. Grab all the knowledge you
can from school and college courses,
get a degree from some first-class
college, specialize in English, and
remember that the three greatest
books in the world are the Bible,
Shakespeare, and the dictionary.
12. When you can find time read
history and biography assiduously.
13. Keep your eyes open, your
brain hitting on all cylinders.
14. Learn to think rapidly and
keep your mind constantly on the
job before you.
—DOLCH—
place, TJrbana, Illinois.
Miss Dolch did undergraduate
work at the University of Illinois,
where she received two bachelor of
fine arts degrees, one in art educa
tion, and the other in painting. She
got her master’s degree in art at
the University of Iowa, and next
went to Saint Louis Art School
where she attended on a fellowship.
Miss Dolch did the illustrations for
the book Readiness for Reading,
which was written by her mother.
Marguerite P. Dolch, and' Beulah
Jackson, and edited by her father.
Dr. E. W. Dolch.
On leaving Miss Dolch, I felt as
if I were leaving an old friend,
and one that I knew intimately.
Salem has taken to heart your sim
ple, charming personality, Miss
Dolch; and we sincerely hope you
have taken us to heart!

the German invasion of Bussia.
“Russia, from the first, planned
to use distance, space, and over-
exension as her allies.” The old
strategy, used against Napoleon in
1812, was employed, and the Rus
sians patiently retreated drawing
the enemy away from his base sup
plies. Then with “General Winter”
on his side, Stalin brought up his
■real forces. Millions of men were
brought in to force back the in
vaders Almost immobilized entirely
by the severity yf winter. Hitler
could but retreat. Today the Rus
sians have come back across the
Volga, the Don, and the Dionetz . . .
the oil fields are out of sight for
Hitler. Without oil for his machines.
Hitler is doomed.
Today Russia has regained Kiev,
Kharkov, Khostov, and Kerch .
Hitler has lost his dream of eastern
empire. Truly this was a narrative
of how Stalin outsmarted Hitler .
