Miss Stipe introduced Miss Dick hut, who had as her subject, “Men tal Worry.” She said that if a simple hygienic life is lead, and all the laws of health that are taught at school were obeyed, there would be no need for worry. Yesterday could be forgotten and tomor would take care of itself. A beautiful vase was given Margaret Wooten, who had been chosen during the good postui paign as the one having the best posture.

OCTOBER Tlie October splendor softly falls O’er woodland, field and river; Tlie high tide of the year has come. With many a trill and quiver. An undertone of sadness creeps O’er Nature’s wildwood story. Her music tuned to minor key. Has lost its summer glory; And plaintive chords sound every- Tliroughout October’s genial ai le from heavenly courts Tlie golden-rod has reared its head In generous woodland measure; Eacli plume of gold is God’s o' smile. His benison to mortals, A trailing gleam of living light From out the heavenly portals. October’s gold o’er hill and dale, Wliile Gentians glow and Asters pale. Ah, well! ’tis thus the seasons go Each bearing its own blessing; ieli stores of knowledge offered us While years mc swiftly passing. We gather now their treasured gold ^ ' - - - growing Ere heart and mind are Oh heart of God that throbs and glows Through Nature’s every feature! O life of God that ebbs and flows In every living creature, le autumn time thy glory tells. With thousand gladsome voices. While wood and vale the chorus swell. And Earth with Heaven rejoices! —Emma A. Lehman.

He spoke particularly of the singing of hymns and chorales, showing how the lives of the people were ennobled by these ancient songs of praise. He also sketched the history of the Salem Band, tracing its development as far b^ck as 1754 when some clever member lof the congregation made a trumpet from the hollow limb of a tree. ‘ In the year 1772, not only wi Salem Academy founded, but the first meeting house was built at Salem. The old records show that the organ used at that time equipped with two stops only—a fact which convinces one that infi nite progress has been made. Mr. Pfohl spoke interestingly of the first fourth of July eelebi at Salem and also of the reception given George Washington upon h' arrival in the city. On both of these occasions, music played an im portant part. In fact, Washington ' -as so impressed with the progj that he mentions it in his diary. In discussing the work of these men and women, Mr. Pfohl pointed out the fact that they not only; gave liberally of themselves i: ider that Salem might develop cally, but they were also instri: tal in making it possible for the people of Salem to hear good i from other sources. Mr. Pfohl mentioned a number of men and women of Salem whose achievements as musicians and com posers have won them lasting fame, and recognition in this community. Notable among them were the Rev. Francis F. Hege, the comppser of “Morning Star”; E. W. Linebach; Miss Amy von Vleek; and Profes sor Charles Skilton, who is known not only in Salem, but throughout the musical world. In bringing his talk to a close, Mr. Pfohl stated that in the last Ea.Hter services two" hundred and sixty instruments were used. This statement brought out in a striking manner the wonderful progress made, and brought to a close one of the most interesting and delightful lectures ever given in Memorial Hall. ECONOMICS FROM LIFE Columbia College students, of eci imics will no longer go to tex books to learn about economics but III study life itself. After four :ars of research William iE.. Weld, soeiate professor of economics, believes that he has discovered a nethod wliereby his subject may be llustrated by living examples rather than classical “laws.” “Readings in the regular text books are assigned,” explained Pro^ fessor Weld, “but we give the stu- ' no guarantee that he will find nswer to his problem in them.” Columbia’s plan is the pioneer at- ipt to better the old method of ching economics, wliieh leaders .._.e long realized was not meeting the practical needs of students, Professor Weld said. „ NOTICE We invite all the Salemo Girls to come to our Beauty Parlor and receive A NICE SOUVENIR Free of Charge D.
