In the midst of it all let us stop for a moment and consider the purpose for which tliis day was set aside by the forefathers of our race. Thanksfulnessl In our eternal struggle to get that which we have not we oftentimes forget that which we have; in our incessent re quests for new blessings we forget those already bestowed. The things for which we, in Salem College girls, should be thankful are manifold. This morning we have worshipped in the House of God, and we have caught something of lie Thanksgiving spirit, and now as we turn our attention to the athletic event of the day let us not lose it. In our pride and loyalty let us feel thanks for our class and college; in our games and sports let us feel thanks for strong bodies and alert minds; in our comradeship and co'operation let us feel thanks for friends and class mates, and teachers. With our joy and happiness on this eventful day may there be mingled that spirit of thankfulness that makes us more deserving and appreciative of our lot. Every midnight, dark and dreary, While I slumber weak and weary, Dreaming of the blissful snoozes that I knew in days of yore, As I lie there gently napping, Suddenly there comes a tapping, As of someone gently rapping, rapping on the room next door. “’Tis some visitor,” I mutter, “trying someone’s chamber door. Only this and nothing more! I Then I leave my rhythmic snoring, Step into the hall imploring, Vainly listening for the noises I had heard not long before. But the silence is unbroken and the ! stillness gives no token— I Not a single word is spoken— Just the closing of a door. • Then I stand there, listening always for that squeaking chamber door, Only that and nothing more! Deep into the darkness peering Long I stand ther wondering, fearing Hearing numerous smothered gigg lings in the darkened room next door. Presently my soul grows stronger And I hesitate no longer. ’Tis my duty as the Proctor to sup press the noise next door. But the task is scarcely finished when there squeaks another door. Only this and nothing more. Toward that other chambcr turning Anger hot within me burning Haste I on 'o knock with fervor on the swiftly closing door. Not a soul can help agreeing With a harassed fellow bsing When she wishes for the slumbers that she knew in days of yore; When she thinks with wistful longing on those peaceful night of yore.
