Miss Josephine Wible
Miss Wibk
Joins Faculty
Brown curly hair, twinkling brown
eyes, and a light, airy walk . . .
a new senior in our midst? Nope,
it’s none other than Miss Josephine
Elizabeth Wible, Salem’s new si)eoch
teacher, Pierrette director, and
dramatic coach. She’s originally irom
l*over, Ohio, but during the last
few years she has taught Knglish,
speech, and dramatics in Dover
High School, in Eochelle, Illinois,
and in Delaware, Ohio. She also
taught acting and drama at Stevens
College in Columbia, Missouri.
And what does she think of Salem?
She’s delighted! “But,” she says,
‘‘thero’a something quite different
about it. None of the picrures they
sent me did the school justice! I
found much more than I had antici
pated.” She thinks the campus is
beautiful and loves the quaint old
buildings. She- finds everyone true to
the legend of Southern hospitality,
the faculty gracious and interesting.
And she has a weakness for Southern
baking, especially the hot rolls and
the sugar bread.
iliss Wible received her B. A.
degree at Ohio Western University,
her M. A. degree at the State Uni
versity of Iowa, and she had special
training at the Univer.sity of Pitts
burg, the University of Wisconsin,
and the Kent State Professional
Summer School of Theater near
Boston. She isi very interested in
radio. At the University of Iowa
she had a weekly radio program,
" Our Neighbors,” as well as a week
ly poetry program. She ho])es to in
terest the Pierrettes in radio work
and in presenting plays of real liter
ary value.
She has big plans for the Pier
rettes and the Freshmen and tells
us to be on the lookout for the new
l)luy she is beginning soon.
Sans Specs
I coiildn’t see because I didn’t
have on my glasses, but from where
I sat they looked cute. I niean
those two girls standing outside
Waiting to get on the bus.
They looked almost like twins—
both had black, curly hair—and
they were dressed alike. At least
they had on blue dresses. But some
thing was different.
The bus was crowded; so they
had to stand by me, lind I got a
good look. They couldn’t be twins.
Both had cross eyes, but one’s
crossed overlooking the nose, and
the other’s looked toward the ears.
They both had teeth; but one had
two in the middle, and the other
had one on each side. The slew-foot-
ed one was knock-kneed, while the
pigeon-toed one was bowlegged.
They couldn’t be twins.
Listening to their conversation,
I noticed one had a southern drawl,
while the other gave a slight roll
to her r’s. Even their friends were
different. One seemed interested in
‘/niah man Sam,” while the other
loved her Bill.
While the bus stopped, I found my
glasses in my hand, where they had
been the whole time. As I put them
on I was horrified!—my goodness,
they couldn’t be twins! One was
black and one was white!

Stanbury Talks
To Methodists
Dr. Stanbury, pastor of the Cen
tenary Methodist Church, spoke in
formally to the Methodist students
in the Day Student’s Center yes
terday at 5:30. He and Miss Samp-
ley, the education secretary of the
church, invited the girls to Sunday
School and church. Cars will be
sent out to bring all who want to
go. Notices will be postedsto sign
up on. Those interested should see
Mollie Cameron or Betsy Thomas.
Jeannette Hughes, president of
the Young Peoples’ League, invited
the students to attend the Sunday
night meeting at 6:30. Supper will
be served. A series of programs for
the returning veteran and college
student will beheld nightly at 7:30
the first week in November.
Refreshments were served.
’■ All the shouting you heard around
the campus Wednesday night was not
the Sophomores after the Freshmen
again. Margaret West and Bunny
Bunn were making all the noise by
themselves . . . trying to drum up
trade for the Woe Blew Inn, which
is run by the May Day Committee.
This year the Inn will be open on
Wednesday nights at '10:00 and on
Saturday nights at 10:30. Milk and
sandwiches will be sold.
Julia has wonderful plans for
May D.ay, but she will need more
support. By buying milk and .sand
wiches from the Wee Blew Inn, we
can help make May Day this year
the best yet.

“Y” ^^Column
“Call unto me, and I will answer
thee, and shew thee great and mighty
things, which thou knowest not.”
Jeremiah 33:3
The first “ Y” Watch meetings,
this year being held in each separate
dormitory, were initiated on Thurs
day night and proved quite success
ful under the newly adopted plan.
“Y” groups have been having
small get-togethers this week and
more are to be held next week. This
is a good way to get to meet your
fejlow workers and to find out your
special responsibility for the month.
It was splendid t6 see such large
crowds at vespers and morning
Chapel. These voluntary services
give true satisfaction with their
few moments of quiet and medita
tion. We hope these crowds will con
tinue and grow even larger. The
work of the “Y” can be carried on
only through you; our Y. W. C. A.
is what you make it by your co
operation.
Library Makes
Improvements
Lots has happened in the library
since last year. On the shelves at
either end of the main desk, there
arc newly catalogued books. Others
yet to be catalogued will appear
soon on these shelves. Some new
books have already been placed in
the stacks, and others arc now on
the rental shelf in the entrance hull.
These would be good for reading
in the Outdoor Reading Room dur
ing the warm weather. This terrace
is just outside the Main Reading
Room.
Each week the library staff
arranges a display in the main en
trance hall of the library. This
week’s timely display is on “The
Ways Of Peace”. There are peaceful
scenes on the bulletin board, such
as a fidd, a home, and a lake. On
the table beneath these pictures,
there are books concerned with
l)oace problems and plans. This table
and bulletin board will be arranged
each week with material on different
subjects so that students may be-
conii» acquainted with the interest
ing books that are in the library.

Rat Court
(Cont. from page one)
Mary Bryant, president of the
Sophomore Class, briefly opines on
the subject of red bows. “I sincerely
believe that hair ribbons of the
color red not only cheer up the
Salem College campus but will revol
utionize the students own hair orna
ments in the near future.”
Pausing in her s/tudies, Carol
Beckwith, Junior Class president,
looks up to say, “I find the ribbons
attractive.”
Senior class president, Virginia
Mclver, in a speech on the topic, re
peats the true sentiment of every
red-blooded-crazy-by-how Salem stu
dent when she says, “Cute!”
Everyone agrees that the “green-
ies” really entered into the spirit of
the thing. They all reserve our con
gratulations. So cheer up freshmen,
we all love you—and remember—
your time will come.
A Freshman Speaks
While Dr. Understansia was visit
ing Salem College this week, he dis
covered that the disease Sophomoria
CourHa has begun to manifest it
self in the freshman class. He re
marked that it is a severe epidemic
and occurs at the beginning of each
school year. Explaining the situation,
Dr. irnderstansia said that when a
freshman is seen wearing a four
inch, wide, long, red bow and carry
ing a notebook and pencil around
her neck, and having the appearance
of a zombie, she has a bad case of
this ailment.
Symptoms of Sophomoria Courtia
are usually confused with other col
lege iniiladies; mountainous assign
ments, parallel reading, homesick
ness, etc. Those who are usually
stricken with this disease can be
found scurrying around the campus
walking around the Square instead
of going across when on the way to
the drug store, nuiking frequent
trips to the P. O., hitting the ground
during an “air raid,” and mumbl
ing a certain note containing eight
adjectives describing a freshman,
seven describing a sophomore, and
six describing a houscpnrty.
Curiously enough, eveiyone but
freshmen are immune to this disease,
but remember each and everyone of
the upper-classmen has been a victirti >
in her freshman year.
