The current topic ou campus this
past week has been none other
than—well, what would it be but
VACATION! Everyone seems to
have big plans for big times over
the holidays. Luke and Grace Lane
will be Florida bound, and don’t
We all envy them! Luke, we’ll be
keeping our finjfers crossed for you
if liopes you -don’t get put off
that plane. We’ll be hoping the
satue thing, too, for i’olly and Lou
when they set out on that long
awaited trip to Scarsdale.
^ew York seems to hold the
greatest of attractions for Salemites.
Among those planning 'to visit the
big city are Jenny Frazier, Luanne
Davis, Ruth Shore, and Mary
prances McNeely. And then there’s
first floor Clewell which is practi
cally moving to the great 'white
^ay in a body. This bunch will in
clude Peggy Witherington, Lois,
^’■'etn, Helen RoVjbins, and Martha
^oore. .Julia is going to Buloxi to
Bill, and then lets don’t for-
Set the trip Betsy took this past
Weekend to Norfolk to see Ed.
The majority of Strong seems to
hp planning to spend the holidays
'’•siting brothers. We hear Kiden-
h»ur is flying to Boston to see
brother Bob; Helen SI ye is going
to take off for Columbia airbase to
her brother; and not to be out
done, Jo Holler is going to Wash-
'••gton to see her brother.
Heading for Baltimore will be
«0()ty,i who is going to spend the
''acation with Li^it. Anne car-
others is also going to Baltimore
~~to launch a ship, the U. S. S. Rock
llill!
^’hat would a gossip cc imn be
'''’ithout a mention of the men on
Campus? We notice Lamar Gudger
here this past week to see Lib and
^auls. The latter certainly delights
->n keeping us wondering! Also seen
^found the doors of Strong was
^athei/ine Ballew’s sailor, Bill.
And now back to plans for spring
holidays, the best one of all is
Efnily Harris’ plan to fly to Florida
to become a "Mrs.” Here’s wish-
you all the best of luck and
happiness, Emily.

Y^. W. C. A. by the student body on

candidates were Catherine Bunn

Lovelace from Henrietta, N. 0.
“Snookie”, who is a rising senior,

Service ■ Fund. ‘ ‘ Snookie” is sec

When interviewed in regard to

‘Let’s go’.” She wants to make
every Salemite an active member
of the Y. W. C. A. and to make

more social activities such as teas,

LOU STACK
Miss Mary Lou Stack, our ‘ ‘ up-
and-coming” i>resident of I Kepre-
sent Salem, has some very new and
progressive idea.s for next year.
Lou wants each and e\eryone of
us to ^realize that we are a vital
part of the 1. R. S.; it is our
organization and the suggestions of
each and every one of us are really
going to be welcomed by Lou anil
the 1. R. S. Each year, in the
late spring, a suggestion box is
placed at our disposal, and Lou is
urging that any new suggestions
that we have for next year be placed
in this box.
Lou has announced plans for a
scrapbook that is going to be kept
of all activities of the I. E. S. next
year. This scrapbook will be of in
valuable aid to the coming presi
dents, and it will contain such things
as dance notices, tea announcements,
and regular and new activities that
are undertaken during the school
year. I think that it would be a
marvelous idea for each organiza
tion on the campus to consider.
Lou and her new council will be
ready to s\ipport the new date room,
and they will help with any arrange
ments that are necessary.
Another very important item is
our smokehouses, our campus living
rooms. You know that the smoke
house is the very first place that
any visitor on campus is taken to.
The entire life of the campus rad
iates from here. New engagements
and any choice bits of gossip are
discussed pro and con in our liv
ing rooms. For these reasons we
want to keep them clean and as
homey looking as we can next year.
Lou is planning on continuing the
excellent work stated by this year’s
I. R. S. in« connection with being
really proud of our smokehouses, and
keeping them up to our best stand
ards.
Lou has plans for a progressive
I. R. S. that will stimulate social
activities on our campus; help fill
up those empty week-ends and orig
inate fun in onr new date room.
Again she urges that each Salemite
feel that she is an integral part
of the I. R. S.

PEACE
As the peace plans are one of
our main topics of discussion today,
mistakes of past history are worthy
of consideration. The following
quotation is found in the book en
titled 1066 and All That by Sellar
and Yeatman, which is a take-off
on English history.
THE PEACE TO END PEACE
‘ ‘ Though there were several
battles in the War, none were so
terrible or costly as the Peace
which was signed afterwards in the
ever memorable Chamber of Hor
rors at Versailles, and which was
caused by the only memorable
American statesmen, I’resident W’il-
son and Col. White House, who
insisted on a lot of Points, includ
ing
1. that England should be allowed
to ])ay for the War: this was a
Good Thing because it strength
ened British (and even Ameri
can) credit;
2. that the world should be made
safe for democracy i. e. any
one except pillion-riders, pede
strians, foreigners, natives, "capi
talists, communists, Jews, riffs,
R..\.F.S., gun-men, policemen,
peasants, pheasants, Chinese, etc.
3. that there should he a great
many more countries; this was
a Bad Thing as it was the
cause of increased geography;
4. the Freedom of the Seas: this
was a Good Thing as it did not
apply to Britain or America (or
Switzerland);
5. that the Kaiser should be hang
ed: this was a Good Thing as it
was abandoned, together with
Mr. Lloj'd George, the Irish
Question, etc.
