Elizabeth McClaugherty TROUBLES NOT OUR OWN Troubles have an uncomfortable, unaccountable habit of piling up on , when we least expect them—and rtainly when we least desire them. It is really surprising to notice how calmly and pleasantly life may be gliding along, no worries, no disap pointments, no sorrows, until quite unexpectedly we are beset by a ms of misfortunes: a notebook due, best dress ruined, a valuable piece of jewelry lost, a longed-for week end postponed. And what do we do ? Do we try to overcome them cheerfully and un- iplainingly, as we should? For the most part, no. The usual pro cedure in such instances is to gather group of sympathetic cronies around us and painstakingly merate the undeserved woes which have befallen us. Before long, as s natural, our disasters have treb- ed in our own estimation, but, more important, we have unconsciously contrived to instill our friends with the misery and injustice of istence. A recital of our troubles calls to mind their own. They feel eru.s!ied by the double weight of their remembered woes and owes, so they unburden theirs upon us (a deserved retaliation to us, perhaps) and upon Thus it is a cycle. We broadcast our troubles to others, but forced to tune in on the troubles of others with the result that this static out-noises the worthier things of life. LITTLE THOUGHTS FOR TODAY Do not bite at the bait of pleasure till you know there is no hook beneath it. —Thomas Jefferson, 1786 But dost thou love life? Then don't squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of. -Ben jamin FranMin. PARAGRAPHICS The inaids who have a playful habit of knocking loudly door and then hiding must be fore runners of the “Hidden Guest. A great inducement to teaching especially practice teaching!) m grammar school ssems to be Fruit Showers. The Play^s the Thing 3-0-0-0-0-0-0-0! Ghosts! Story book ghosts in white—modern ghosts yellow slickers; ghosts breathing the breathing on the back of one’s ;k—ghosts that rustle around the house with muffled footsteps—The Hidden Guest! Who? What? When? Steeped in mystery centered around ;ollege fraternity prank the play ves on bubbling with humor fur nished by a superstitious deaf serv- with a high-powered imagina tion—combined with this is a peppy which includes several Salem faculty members. Here are Romance, and Adventure, playing together in extremely modern setting, with thrills and laughter packed into three acts of rollicking action. Once again there shall be a fair maiden wooed and won by a real, sho’ enough man, before a Salem College audience. Heretofore, the lack of such an element has caused an overworking of the imagination, but in this play the “genuine” article is introduced. Not only is the Sen ior class offering the first and last word in heroes, but it is outdoing any past production by presenting several men of the faculty in the cast. This in itself is too rare a treat to be dealt with indifferently. It so happens that Mr. Campbell will make his debut along with Mr. MacDonald and Mr. Curlee. To know that Fritz Firey carries the lead with sparkling confidence of old, and Mary Brewer, the girl with a thousand faces, portrays the deaf, superstitious servant, makes a first impresson of the play that will last throughout. One doesn’t doubt things like this. One takes them to be good; one is •ely disappointed—and here again history will repeat itself.

MAIN 6 FOURTH sii PHONE FOOD FOR THOUGHT Why should not Salem girls sup port Salem organizations and activi ties in preference to outside ones whenever possible? After all, we believe that loyalty does not end with the singing if the AAlma Mater or giving a rousing cheer now and then, but is more truly displayed by iur every day and all day support of our institution in every phase of work and play. If you must satisfy that terrible and relentless attack of hunger when you are “simply starving” try some of the tasty food dainties prepared by the Y. W. C. A., the Senior Class or the Juniors. If you crave ro mance and excitement, don’t fail to attend the Saturday night movies given by the Macdowell Club. For those to whom the stage is most ap pealing,' we suggest the plays given by the various classes and the Pier rette Players. Musical treats of a rare and beautiful nature ar for you on each Thursday afternoon at the regular Music Hour. The Salem Bookstore carries not only supplies for college work, but in addition serves as a most modern and progressive bookstore, post- office, gift shop, headquarters for package delivery, cafeteria, and agency for cleaning and repair. We may well ask what more we might desire in one store, for it seems that nothing has been overlooked in mak ing this department most complete and helpful. All this has been done for Salem girls, and their patronage is appreciated.
