Saturday, January 19, 1929. THE SALEMitE When you hear the word “exami nations,” of what do you think, of long, rough roads, of graveyards at midnight, and of hideous monsters, or of bright adventure? After all exams are things to be looked for ward to rather than dreaded—that is, of course, if we are not pessi mists. There really is a bright side to even these dreaded and much- talked and moaned-over which are almost on our door-steps. However, it is, it seems, completely liidden to most of us. Or, rather, the cloud of gloom is so dense that the light made by hope shining through is very feeble. Now, you are very probably say ing, how in the world can anyone say that exams, EXAMS, are things to be looked forward to! At any rate they are, and if you will listen to my story you will agree with On the third floor of a building bearing the initials A. C. B., with which you are all familiar, there is a little room set apart from the others, very attractively furnished, and with which you are not quite as familiar. On various occasions throughout the year the students cordially invited to visit this ri and the time is rapidly approaching when they will again have that privilege. During exam week, every afternoon from five to six, the Y. W. C. A. serves tea and cakes to all who may feel the need of re freshment, or may want it, to all who feel weak from lack of knowl edge (caused by hours of strenuous scribbling). Besides being invited to see the lovely room and to enjoy the cakes and tea they will be pro vided with comfortable chairs where they may rest. Just come to the third floor of A. C. B. and look for the room of the Blue Triangle. Now, don’t /ou agree with Is not the cloud of despair becoming lighter, isn’t the light of hope shin ing less feebly? BE STRONG Be strong! We are not here to play, to dream, to drift; We have hard work to do, and loads to lift; Shun not the struggle—face it, ’tis God’s gift. Be strong! Say not, “The days are evil. Who’s to blame?” And fold the hands and acquiesce— oh, shame- Stand up, speak out, and bravely, in God’s name. Be strong! It matters not how deep intrenched the wrong. How hard the battle goes, the day how long; Faint not—fight on! Tomorrow comes the song. SIGMA OMICRON ALPHA DEBATES AT MEETING (Continued From Page One) to clear away difficulties and defic iencies. Exams induce work. When the student realizes that a day of reckoning is coming, he will study more and more connectedly. With out the prospect of an exam, effort slumps, and little is accomplished. Lastly, examinations afford too much pleasure to the professors to allow them forever to become ex tinct. If we did not have exami nations and the consequent pleas ure afforded to professors, we prob ably would not have the large num ber of excellent teachers of which We are now able to boast. The decision of the judges fa vored the ncgtitive side, and tlie meeting was closed.

(Continued From Page One) to grow up in ignorance, she had left her husband dozing in the and had come to the valley, with the two dogs following. They were wretchedly poor, but the anxious mother was willing and eager to give her boys and girls a chance. She put them in school, and kept them there until her death a year later, causcd by overwork. Then kind friends carried on their educations. Today they are all prominent and hold responsible positions. Motlier love had converted their my liabilities into as many Miss Dozier told of numerous other cases in which the woman ;irl concerned had nothing in her hand to give her hope, had nothing in her life except misfortune and unhappiness. And who had by her sheer determination and courage combined with ambition and the help of friends made something of herself. If these poor people, handicapped they are by ignorance and poverty, can make so much of them- 'ves, what should not we who have much, be able to do? FLOATING UNIVERSITY STUDENTS ARE HAVING A BIG TIME IN JAPAN (Continued from Page One) )ne of the professors, Mrs. Eunice Weaver, native South American, has been encouraging students, uncertain of their Spanish, to talk, and at other, Mrs. Russell Krauss, instruc- n French, has been leading the French conversation. 1 route to Japan there w formal dance every Saturday night shipboard and much informal dancing at meal times and evenings. Deck sports soon became very popu lar, and the swimming pool was much in demand. Between Panama and San Francisco were formed small orchestra to play chamber n !, and another to compete with the Chinese jazz orchestra on shipboard. Having settled down for the past three weeks in Japan to study shore, to make field trips, and to the sights, the Floating University is more on its way around world. It will next visit China, the Philippines and the Straits Settle ments, including Singapore, and will then proceed to Siam, India, Suez, Egypt, Asia Minor and Europe, turning to New York in June. The experience of the present cruise makes it clear that the cours- students like best and work enthusiastically in, are those which closely relate what they see and do with what they learn from class, ■)00ks, and field trips of observation and investigation in the countries they visit. All courses in the future will be planned on this basis and most of them will treat the world unit. International Relations, for instance, will illuminate the re Excited Scotchman: Are you the man who pulled my boy out of the lake? Blushing hero: Why-why, yes, sir. Excited Scotchman: Well, where’s his cap? Love comes as often a changes her mind. girl 436 TRADE STREET JANUARY CLEARANCE SA-L-E The most outstanding values we have ever offered.
