THE SALEMITE Y. W. C. A. NOTES. (Continued from page one) It is just the most wonderful place imaginable! Those who were there last summer will tell you all about it —about its beauty, sociability, and in spirations! Its scenery consists of the most beautiful of all mountain scenes. There, a spirit of welcome and of fel lowship exists, unlike that of any other place. A friendly, sympathetic, and most of all, inspiring atmosphere abounds everywhere, and finds its way into the hearts of all. Besides being a place for consecrat ed worship and religious instrultion, Blue Ridge affords another life. This is the athletic life. Every afternoon is devoted to sports such as we have on our own college campus. Often, contests between different colleges take place. There are tennis courts, basket-ball courts, and a large swim ming pool. Then, those who are in terested in the Walking Club here at Salem will find great fun on the mountainside hikes about that lovely place. Blue Ridge is just an ideal college— college in the sense of living in the fellowship of several hundred people, just like ourselves, who do the same things that we do in our college. Only, there are inspiring lectures and dis cussions instead of Trig and Science and our greatly feared exams. Then, Blue Ridge is just the kind of place to which you will always want to return if once you have been there, and have enjoyed the activities of its ten days conference. Last year, Salem was well represented, and why not, this year, have even more girls in our delegation? Let’s make Salem one of the leading colleges there! With your presence we can. The Arkansas Convention Delegates Return. Eliza Gaston Moore, our President, and Margaret Russell, our incoming U. R., came back from the Hot Springs Convention with minds full of plans for the coming year, and “bub bling over” with enthusiasm for our local Y. W. C. A. From their en thusiastic reports and reminescences, we feel that not only was much good obtained from the convention, but that they also had a pleasurable trip. We are so glad to have been able to be represented at this National Con vention, and are mighty proud to have had two delegates. Installation of Y. W. C. A. Officers and Cabinet. On Sunday evening, April the sec ond, the installation of the Y W. C. A officers and cabinet for the year 1922- 1923 took place in the library. The impressive “candle light service was used.
