Saturday, April 27, 1929. THE SALEMITE PAGE THREE. The touch of human hands— That is thp boon we axk; For groping, day by day, Along tlie stony way. We need the comrade heart That understands, And the warmth, the living warmth Of human hands. The touch of human hands— Not vain, unthinking words. Nor that cold cliaritv M'hich shuns our misery; \Vy seek a loyal friend Who understands. And the warmth, the pulsing warmth Of human hands. The touch of human hands— Such care as was in Him Who walked in Galilee Beside the silver sea; We need a patient guide Who understands. And the warmth, the loving warmth Of human hands. —Thomas Curtis Claris. It is indeed a privilege and a pleasure to have the state Y. W. and Y. M. C. A. Conference meet with us. In past years we have sent delegates to the annual conference and they have invariably come back with inspiring reports of the achievements of the conference. As the meeting is at Salem this year we have the opportunity for all old and new cabinet members to attend in stead of a restricted number of dele gates as it would have to be if the meeting were elsewhere. It will be a pleasure to have this group of workers with us for we are all w'orking for the same goal, and hav ing this in common the problems, pleasures, thoughts and ideals are much the same. As a result mutual understanding should come and with the combined efforts of such a group, why should not the organization of the “Y” be carried several paces, forw'ard toward its idealistic goal. Cabinet members should receive a great help from a meeting with such eminent leaders as we have been fortunate enough to secure. This year, when planning the program, the committee felt that some time during the conference should be de voted to Cabinet work and workers. Monday morning, it was decided, would be the best time, and Mr. C. B. Loomis, the best leader. New Cabinet members are especially urg ed to attend this meeting. It is often difficult for girls who have never been in “Y” work before to get the true spirit unless they learn some thing about the great work this or ganization is doing and the high ideals for which it stands. It is with regret thal^ the old Cabinet members move out into the world and k ave this field of work and they are extremely anxious that the new girls should take up the work and carry it forward. They have felt the lack of adequate training for the great field and hope that the incoming Cabinet workers will take advantage of this great opportunity for help and guidance. SPORTS Ready? Serve! Those two expres sions and other exclamations oif ten nis are the by-words of today. The tennis singles tournament has prog ressed far enough along its course so that only the very skilfull jilr.ycrs are I'eft. Soon there will be only two left in the fight, and then one, and that one will be the winne: of the trophy. Who will she be Come down to the courts and pick out the bi-st plaj'ers, then pb vour bets! Immediately after the singles tournament is finished the doubles tournament will begin. The baseball championship will be decided Monday afternoon four-thirty. If you know your b liall you will remembei' that last year the upper classmen with the Iielp of the Sophomores beat the Freshmm by (better not said ex actly) a large number of runs. This year the Juniors and Seniors will play tlie w’inners of the Sophomore- Freshman game. Can they keep up last year’s record, can they win without the aid of the Sophomores? If you care to find out just come down to the field on Monday after noon. You are guaranteed to see, if not a big If-agut game, at least a vast supply of hits and runs and “Who’s that behind us, Fred,” asked the man at the wheel as a car hooted. “Only a flapper in a roadster,” Fred answered. The driver hurled, his wheel over, swerved the car off the road, crashed through the fence and turned turtle. “Thank heavens we escaped!” he muttered. Howard Rondthaler at Leisure Howard Rondthaler really i likeable fellow —when you k him. We had the privilege this week to get out with him and, as our dear Editor would say, “gambol on green.” Seizing this unique oppor tunity we called him “Howard,” most familiarly, at every turn. W took him out to the lawn, put him on the grass and rolled him about among the lovely clover. How he chuckled and squealed with glee! He looked so very sweet in that nice blue suit he has, that he almost too enticing ev'en to us well- greaved Achaeans and horse-taming Trojans. Soon after we arrive' his home he came toddling, uncer tainly, out upon the porch devouring the ;end of a cracker and giggling about some drink he’d just had in the kitchen. He was in the most hi larious mood. You know a drink iffects some people that way. Others become moody. All the afternoon Howard laughed outrageously at our jokes although, somehow, we felt that he didn’t know what it was about. He rode about most of the afternoon in a toy red car all up and down the porch. He was, well what would you say if you saw Mr. Howard Rondthaler riding around red Kiddy-Kar on a bright Spring afternoon? W'e were really shocked at his ex ceedingly gay conduct, especially be fore Dr. Willoughby, so we took him 3ut on the lawn and talked him back ;nto calmness. We had to get the 'at for him because he Seemed to have formed an unusual attachment for that kitty. was a hard and gay afternoon for the gentleman and so he was coaxed to bed about six, having had his supper in the kitchen. This really isn’t an expose but we thought everybody would like to have an au thentic account of Howard at leisure and off his guard. As we said he’s a likeable fellow—all of which is due to a great extent to his mother Alice and his grand-daddy Howard. Copies Red Cross Work The American Blue Cross society is an organization to do for animals what the Red Cross does for hu manity. A blue cross is the emblem. It was founded in Springfield, Mass. It promotes animal protection on a scientific as well as humane basis. W. MORGENROTH The Florist Who Gives Service Flowers For All Occasions Paper From Corn As early as 1765 a German, Jacob Schaeffer, called attention to Indian corn as a possible source of paper. The first American patent on paper to be made from corn was taken out in 1802 by B. Allison and J. Hawk ins for a process of making paper out of corn husks. Twenty years ago the Department of Agriculture conducted extensive experiments on ))aper making with cornstalks and carried the work into actual mill operation. Sound Effects A lady motorist whose car had sw'erved across a street and crashed through a plateglass window was ing questioned by the local police sergeant after the accident. “Surely on such a wide street a this,” sai(^ the interrogator, “yo could have done something to prt vtnt this accident?” “I did,” the delinquent assure him quite earnestly; “I screamed a loud as I could!” C omplimentary A man who fancied himself motor engineer bought a second-hand car, and had just completed one or two urgent repairs. He stepped back and surveyed his handiwork. “There!” he exclaimed to a friend, “you’d never think she was second hand now, would you?” His friend cast a critical glance over the car before replying. “N-no,” he agreed; it’s more like something you'd made yourself.” The PICTURE TELLS thei story: PIEDMONT engraving CO.
