The subject of outstanding
interest during the past
has been the World Student
Friendship movement and
wish to emphasize the vast
portance and the great signifi
cance of this movement. Stu
dents all over the world are link
ing hands in fellowship and
understanding and it is not fit
ting that American students, oi
that Salem College students
should fail to recognize this
comradeship among the youth
of the nation. Such student at
tempts at international
are part of the great movement
toward world peace, and every
one who realizes the necessity
for universal peace should make
himself acquainted with this at
tempt. There is a great deal of
literature concerning this sub
ject and even those who-have r
such sources of information ca
consider the matter, and at leas
be aware of the existence of the
movement.
It is with deep regreat w
learn that books continue to dis
appear from the library. 1
would seem that enough ha
been said and written to impres
upon the dullest mentality the
fact that to take a book without
having it properly charged
both selfish and dishonest. Tlie
^irl who does such a thing has
i'.n undeveloped sense of honor
and no respect for the rights of
anyone else. She is too immature
to be a college student and has
no correct sense of values.
Salem College has Student Self-
Government; every student is
put upon her honor -to uphold
the high standards of this insti
tution, and the person who is
ciishonest enough deliberately to
take a book from the library is
not worthy to be called a mem
ber of a Self-Government As
sociation.
With the beginning of really
cold weather people are likely to
remain indoors and cower over a
radiator, scuttle from class to
class as quickly as possible and
shiver in terror every time a*
window is opened. Cold air
never hurt anybody yet, though
the chilly air of an .unventilated
room might cause colds. The
best way to enjoy cold weather
is to go out in it and walk and
exercise to keep warm. One’s
mind will be clearer and one can
work much better after a swift
walk on a cold day, than if one
stayed in all day and shrank
from every little guest of wind.
The seasonal quizes and tests
are over, but a word of warning
is not out of place at this time,
for it is inevitable that some re
action should take place after
mid-term tests, and the kind of
reaction is important. Some
students, no doubt, realize that
their mid-term grades show that
they have been lax in their dail\'
work and preparation. Those
should take warning and
next six weeks improve and pull
up their grades by earnest con
centration.
The reaction from mid-tei'ms
usually a negative one—two
weeks until Thanksgiving, five
until Christmas holidays-
what’s the use of studying now
is the idea pervading some se
tions of the college. But it
just this sort of reaction against
which we are protesting. The
dt'lly grade made between
and Christmas will shape
doubtedly the final grade of the
semester.
Salem is alwa.v ^ glad to
welcome strangers, but we were
particularly glad to welcome the
foreign students of Columbia
University who visited the col
lege on Tuesday, November 10.
Their visit w'as necessarily brief
the short time, Salem
students were given a chance to
show’ hospitality, and the
vere given a chance to ob-
the educational system of
Salem College and W’inston-
Salem.
Among those who were here,
sre some from Norway, the
East Indies, China, Germany
and India. Their interest
Salem was very marked, and
hope they will carry with them
pleasant memory of their
visit here.
Regular Saturday Hike
Led Toward High School
On Saturday afternoon; '
ember the seventh, a crowd of
hikers, led by Miss Chase,
joyed a brisk w'alk out toward
Ardmore and the High School,
and through the grounds. They
had intended to see the foot
ball game which they believed
to be going on at the High
School, but on arriving there
they found that it was to be
played at South Park instead.
In spite of this disappointment,
how'ever, the hike was greatly
enjoyed by all those who went.
Basket Ball Tournament
Played During Week
Athletic Association Urges all
Classes to Have Full
Teams.
The Basket Ball Tournament
■hich is now’ in full swing
! eating a great deal of interest
and enthusiasm among the col
lege students. Preliminary
teams have been chosen from
each class. These teams are to
play in a series of games after
w'hich the permanent teams will
be chosen for the Thanksgiving
games. On IMonday afternoon
exciting games were played
between the four Freshman
teams. Team number three
beat number four, and the game
between teams one and two end-
tie. The date of the
next game has not yet been de
cided, so everybody should be
;o watch the bulletin board
for it. It will not be long before
Thanksgiving now, so every
body should begin to get up her
pep and enthusiasm in prepara
tion for the big events, and
should attend the preliminary
games going on now’. '
During the past week a great
deal of interest has been center-
world-wide and inter
national objects which challenge
every college girl to do what she
can to create an interest
■Id affairs and world prob-
s. They are meant for more
than that, however, for every
girl should encourage others to
the same interest and to go
still farther—namely, to show
that interest in her actions and
In her gifts.
American students, the ma
jority of whom are w’ell situated
financially, little realize what
real suffering and real want
•v.ay mean. Not having sufifered
as much as the students
Europe during the World \Y
they seem forgetful of their
blessings. Let them remember
Ihftt always “It is mori
to give than to receive’
“Fellowship” and “Student
Friendship” are w'ords symbolic
of this international and inter
student interest. Dr. Russell
spoke most interestingly and in-
formingly on the condition of
(German students. From what
he said at least a little idea can
be obtained concerning the con-
1 Europe and the atti
tude held among students there.
■it Kjf feliO‘'vship, of
Christian fellowship, should
abound in the heart of every
true Y. \^’. girl, and there it
should shine and bring a whole
some and friendly satisfaction,
and a desire to give and to serve.
The Y. W. C. A. meeting next
week will consist of a talk by
Dr. Weaver, who has had ex
periences in college work and
:nderstands girls and their
questions. His subject will be
the same as the one last night,
“How far does my personality
■each?” The girls have pre
sented it from the student’s
point of view, and Dr. Weaver
give it from a minister’s
point of view. The message will
'tainly be profitable.
