What do you think about fire drill at six thirty? What do you think about the motion pictures that are approved? What do you think about the price of hair nets? Your opinion is valued. Ex press it. We hear so much these days about the value of the individual. Have you ever thought that you are “the indi vidual?” That public opinion depends upon you? That the opinion of that important class, College women, de pends upon you? A boy once asked his father, “Fath er, wliat is an opinion?’ The father answered, ‘Son, if you ask s&mebody what they think and it agrees with what you think, it is an ■ opinion, but if it disagrees, it is a prejudice.” Thus the Open Forum column is for prejudices,as well as opinions.. It gives each of us, no matter how insig nificant, a chance to say what we think. There should be a new atmosphere at Salem since the advent of the Open Forum. No more whispering in the lialls, no more dissatisfied murmur- ings behind closed dors. Say it through the Salemite. Your name is not v/anted. It is not the opinion of Mary Smith v/e want, but the opinion of a Salem girl. Let Salem hear from you. —Bessie Pfohl- the keynotes of every division of the day’s worship. Dr. Schwartz, in delivering the ser mon, “Sing unto the Lord a new soBg,” ably brought out the fact that repeti tion and discourse in a serious address on the blessings of life will do no good, because the very monotony of reiteration is wearisome. The counting of-blessings is an individual necessity because the individual knows for what he should be thankful, and this gives rise to the essential ne^ of a new song of praise. In uttering the memory of Christ’s goodness, it is v/ell to sing of His righteousness, to bless Him with “heart, and soul, and voice”, because he is the source of every joy and happiness, the “giver of all” to earthly man. We must sing unto the Lord a new song, above all, because he furnishes in eternity the everlasting reward or dividends for our deeds here on earth; we must “praise God from whom all blessings flow, for He is good, and his mercy endureth forever.” FROM ELON. Elon College, Nov. 14.—Rev. W. P. Minton, foreign mission secretary of the American Christian Convention, has been here for several days in the interest of foreign missions.

He also held a conference with the Student Volunteer organiza tion of this institution. In speaking of the Christian mission work in Japan, Rev. Minton declared that he felt tS’at the work was progressing very satisfactorily and that Christian influence was being felt even in polit ical circles in that country. FROM DAVIDSON.

THE THANKSGIVING SERMON. “Enter into His gates with Thanks giving, and into His courts with praise: be thankful unto Him and bless His name.” These words, some of the first in the Psalm and Litany of praise, were the nucleus of the whole Thanks giving service at the Home Moravian church. The greatness and complete ness of God’s works, the wisdom of His ways, and the fullness of His riches given to earth, all formed fit subjects for a Thanksgiving program, and reverence and thankfulness were j FROM QUEENS.
