PASSING OUT Tee-hee, we fooled you. Tlii merely our Farewell Address. Read it and weep, we say—smiling through the tears that glisten becom ingly on our luxurious lashes. Mary Lib Meeks just came in and begged to be given honorable men tion for being able to wiggle her nose like a rabbit. (She will teach you how in ten lessons. Sea terms in our Catalogue, page 2001.) We are all in pieces, that is, asunder by the conflicting emotions that you’ve heard so much about. M^hether to be dejected, morbid and inconsolable at the prospect of the impending doom—or to be exhuber- ant, and you know just oh so glad to think of what then: that is up and down of it. Glad one and sad tlie next. That’s And how about you.^ Oh, girls, dear Everybody, how ire we going to survive the next two weeks? Everything is topsy turvy, shilly-shally, willy-nilly, >gly-w'oogly; and we walk along— old Unconscious personified—think ing foggily of What Is to Be and If So How. This is our last number—what relief. But tliere is no rest for the and bloody eyes. Weakly we clutch a twig and try to pull ourself the liigh hedge; we have almost reached the top . . . now the twig breaks and we fall to the dirt with heavy thud and a low groan Oh, Gunga Din, ol’ pal, ol’ fj won’tcha gie me a drink of that canteen.? . . . Jus’ s cool, cool . . . And bind up my poor sore toes, and wipe my eyeis. Will ya? D. T., Epizootics, fie, fie, foe, fum. After all tliis noble eifort we find it impossible to be attractive tonight. The environment is strangely ii spiring, and to be frank—we liave notliing to inspire anyway. Please accept our sympatliy, en couragement and blessing; also, let’ drink a toast: Here’s to bigger and better vacations!! PARAGRAPHICS Edna Lindsey and Jessie Davis are hereby granted their touching plea that they be allowed the privi lege (?) of appearing, in print, be fore the public eye—and before the ensuing Commencement. Oh, il n’y a pas de quoi, Edna. Anna Preston is certainly burd ened with blue ribbons and the equivalent thereof—a freshman, at that! Come on everybody, let’s give this little girl a hand. (As “Texas” Guinan might say). In fact, Charlotte, N. C., is fast producing a remarkable array of athletic problems. Regard Modest Martha, pride of our track r who inspires our open-mouthed ad miration. (Note: Dr. Oswald Goof- lin, painless adenoid operati $95.00, 2000 W. Fourth St.—Adv.) You might be interested in the furor created recently at the Uni versity of North Carolina by the anonymous publication of a scandal sheet, titled The Yellow Journal. You may obtain details of the epi sode from room 202, Junior Hall, We had a Junior say she was £ ing to get restricted so that her unpopularity would be less notice able, No, in spite of the damaging evidence you are wrong, it was not tts. Guess again. We trust that Those-Who-Are-In- .\uthority will resist any possible impulse to cleave to past customs, whatever sentimental attachment they may have for old regulations, and will make amendments for the coming school year governed by an unbiased consideration of the peti tions presented by the Student Body. One, two, three; concentrate on examinations! ANNOUNCEMENTS Faculty Interference A warm May night, a full moon shining through young leaves, a ^ of flowie'rs, and a murmur ol :s from two girlish figures out lined against a great white bush! With arras interlaced they stood sighing at the moon, their backs turned to the lights of the dormi tories and their minds far away from the college world, ati least, from the feminine part of it. “Oooh!” breathed the blonde, “what a night for meditation.” “Call it meditation if you want to but I don’t agree,” sighed the bru nette. “It’s nothing less than a ' ne to keep a person tied up in ole college on a night like this. Just imagine speeding along in a little roadster with the top down all bundlel up in a warm coat “Who with?” queried her com panion. ‘Oh, that makes no dilfdrenee. I could love anybody right now.” Another long pause broken only by long sighs directed to the man in the moon since he was the only man in sight. “Judy,” murmured the blonde, ^“this is just like the picture show. Don’t you know, the heroine stands in a beautiful garden longing for her lover and suddenly he steps from behind a tree or bush and—ooh!” “This is as lovely as any gard en,” whispered Judy, ‘and there are plenty of trees and shrubs. Suppose we try it.” Without words, but with mutual understanding they started to act upon the suggestion, a suggestion whicli was never) eomplttely ful filled, for from somewhere, from behind the white bush came a muf fled laugh. They looked at each other, not bothering to finish the sigh, hesitated a minute, then with one accord raced back up the hill college life, laughing wildly as they ran. The brunette fell blindly ove a bench, got up and ran on again. A May niglit, a full moon shining through young leaves, a scent of flowers, and two faculty members behind a great white bush in gales of laughter over the consternation of two silly college girls. The annual swimming meet of the college will be held at 2:00 on Monday afternoon. Salem College’s entry in the Horse Show, sponsored by the Wom- I’s Club of Winston-Salem, begins one-thirty this afternoon. May i, at Forsyth County Fair Grounds.

This land is a beautiful one—there the skies are always blue, birds are singing, flow- ire blossoming, and light breezes bring in whiffs the most beautiful isic anyone has ever heard. It is entieiiTg place where one likes go when there are lessons or other hard things to be done. The road to this land of magic is ugh and tangled to some, but for others it is an easy road. Dreamers ;he ones to whom tlie road seems easy; other material-minded people r reach this land of enchant- t, for they can never cross the of understanding. But to dreamers the way is easy; a dreamer just sits down in a nice, comfortable seat and leans his head back upon soft pillows, closing his eyes. Al most at once he may liear the tink ling of tiny bells, and the bright, fresh smell of live green things enters his nostrils. Soon he really enters the magic land; then a sooth ing feeling passes over him and he is at peace with the world. Finally, however, he has to come back from that far-distant world and re-enter the World of Exams and other Ma terial Things. But the most beauti ful land in the world to the weary “crammed” person is the land which we all love—the Land of Thought, or, in other words, the Land of Dreams Come True. “Iceland,” said the teacher, “is about as large as Siam.” “Iceland,” wrote Willie after wards, “is about as large as teach- Hinkle-Lancaster 423 North Trade SL Phones: 2931-2932 NEW!
