Saturday, May 1929. THE SALEMITE PAGE THREE SOCIETY Picnics are certainly in vogue this season. It must be because they make one forget one’s unfin ished note books and term papers long due. Then, too, they sure temporary cure for spring fever. Last Tuesday evening an- Bther group of gay young lassies, known in private life as the Juniors and senior advisees of Miss Minnie Smith and the senior advisees of Miss Leftwich, cavorted merrily forth. They went about five miles out the High Point road, stopping at Fpeeiand. Judging from the size of the memi, the important feature of the occasion was the eating. To give a resume of the various courses would be entirely too hard on col iege bred readers. Is it not suffi cient to say that they began steak broiled on the coals and fin ished with fresh strawberry eream? After they had feasted for ialf an hour or more they pre- Sended to have a desire to rur (everyone knew, deep down in her Beart, that the real purpose was foi reduction). Misses Smith and Left wich, to stimulate the interest of the little girls, to arouse more keen- fy the play instinct in them iffered prizes for the fastest runner iighest jumper. Miss Margaret Sells covered herself with glory by nunning at the top (or bottom, may be) of the hill ahead of her rades. She was presented a deck of eards—fortune-telling cards. Then Miss Thelma Cagle, voted the high est jumper, received a rubber doll (imagine her squeals of delight!) As night and bedtime were a^ proaelung they gave up merry-mak ing afld became college women more. Everyone from little Rose Frasier to Miss Leftwich declared that she had never had such a good BELTA SIGMA DELTA SORORITY ENTERTAINS FOR SENIOR MEMBERS The Delta Sigma Delta sorority is having a luncheon today in the private dining room of the Blue Willow, honoring its senior mem bers—Edna Lindsey and Mary Mill er Falkener.

A great secret is to be revealed to you. The Jun iors are entertaining the Seniors to night at a buffet supper at the stroke of six bells by the tower clock! Junior day students will furnish transportation to Clemmons, the) chicken farm of Mr. Theodore Rondthaler, where the glorious event will take place. The poor underclassmen are to be entirely left out of this gala affair, it is whis pered, for invitations (yes, it is re quired that they be presented at the door) have been issued to the Sen- 1, the honorees, the Juniors, Dr. and Mrs. Rondthaler, the King and Queen, Miss Stipe the Chief Con soler and Advisor, Miss Riggan, her assistant, and Messrs. Campbell and MacDonald, Class Counsellors. At first it seemed impossible to find out exactly what will happen to night after the guests arrive, but, with the aid of Madame Mystera, the court crystal gazer, it is possible to predict tables overflowing with enticing food and drink, a m casting the Seniors as clinging-vine heroines, and even a Vitaphone pro duction starring the faculty. (It is whispered that Mary Brewer will furnish the Vita and Mr. Campbell the phone,.) Even a treasure hunt will be on the program. Where, oh where, and what the treasure is—is the dark secret. Madame Mystera also predicts fair weather, fine spir- and a jolly, good time for all. Farther she dares not go, for the crystal has become dim.

Pale lights and soft moons Do strange things to me. ,n sail wide waters in silver To distant lands where the gold sun lazy blue-green sea. Far from the East a white gull flies. And phantom ships with swelling Ride on the foam as the fresh winds And the soft light dies. mist like sea dust covers the And from afar comes a low, sweet That rolls down the length of great sand dune And is lost in the night IJke a fallen This is the song of the lonely desert Wild, and strange, and sweet. And over the sands go lean, hungry wolves. Heralded by echoes of light, padded feet. Then out of the darkness into moonlight sleek, black horse a white fig- And thunders along in the flood of pale silver With graceful, and easy, and well- timed strides The rider stops with nothing around But the earth’s wide rim and the Heavens above. And loosens tlie hood of the cling ing falcon That sits on the wrist of the master he loves— Then out of the starlight, flashing and white. Comes the gull from the sea, that Flown through the night. And brings the smell of deep s salt To a land whose face is parched with drought. Yet bathed in moonlight. Up springs the falcon from the slender And flies toward the gull in swift, savage flight. And pierced with cries is the silver- blue mist— The gull lies shrouded with deep, dusky night. The song that rolled down the great sand dune Quivers and trembles, and with the falcon’s wings flies Up to the stars on a discordant And there at my feet the shattered dream lies.
