Do today thy nearest duty. —Goethe.

Mid-semester quizzes are about over and we wonder not whether you passed or failed but how did you get that grade! Did you ever see a gladiatorial combat. Watch the rear end of the Senior line some morning just be fore they enter the portals. WILL YOU CO-OPERATE? The mention of the term student co-operation probably carries w’ith little force to the average student, but a careful survey of the activities engaged in on this campus, give striking evidence of the practice of sincere co-operation. Some features of our school life require less co-op eration on the part of the students than do others. There is. liowev one product of student enterpr: that has come in tlie course of tii to be limited to the work of a few, but which should represent the bined effort of many; namely, The Salemite. This article is not intended to condemn, nor to be of a critical nature, for it can be readily s that the tendency in such a i would be to let tlie few directly sponsible for the paper manage every detail—that is only a natural inclination. T^he real purpose of these statements is to bring before the students of Salem College this fact—tliat the Salemite “staff” publication but a “college” publication, and it is the desire that be used as such. The Salemite should be the rument through wliich student opinions are voiced, and throug^i which tliose outside of our immedi- able to obtain an idea of the personality and character of •ollege. It should give a picture of student life, our progressiveness, ur ambitions, and our interest in the ffairs of life about us. To a certain degree we grant that these things are accomplished, but they are accomplished tlirough tlie undertaking of a small group. The editor and the staff of the Salemite both anxious for more actual participation and criticism on the of the students into Whose hands tlie paper is placed every week. The Salemite office remains open at all hours, and it is the desi: those who work on your paper, that you wlio have criticisms and sugges tions to make will write them out and place them on the desk in the office located under Main Ilall. You are bound to feel prouder of a, pub lication in which you Iiave taken Iiad r Not only are we solieitious for criticisms, but we are also ur those students who have the desire to express their opinions concerning school affairs, to use this paper as a medium for their expressions. A column of open forum will be in cluded in the make-up of the |)aper at any time signed articles of tliis nature are submitted. It is lioped that the sincere spirit in which this is written will bring about closer co-operation between the students and the Salemite staff —not only on the part of individuals is your paper, lielp us make it of whicli you are duly proud! On Reaching Out for Stars I used to cry and pound the bed And dash my fists against my head. Because the nurse unkindly said I could not reach tlie stars. I pushed and stretched by feeble hands Despite the doctor’s cold com- mand.s— I tried to clutch at Mars. In recent years I’ve grown more About the planets in ^he skies I’ve learned their distance, shape But still I yearn and strain! But yesterday I reached for Venus; My ode to her outshone Maecenas But could not bridge the gulf be tween us Nor ease my inward pain. The stars swim onward attended by Their satelites, thru leagues of sky. The foolish figure—that is I, All bruised and wounded sore But tho’ observers cynical May smile and call me finical I’ll stand upon this pinnacle And reach forever more! ,’ve got a Sherlock Holmth tooth,” lisped Lily. ’’What sort of tooth is that?” '’Slooth.” —Colorado Dodo.

LIBRARY BOOKS LOST A number of library books have een re]iorted as “lost” by the li brarian on the latest list posted. ; the opening of school, books have been missing continually. This condition is a hindrance both to the librarian, who must check up and account for all volumes, and to students who may wish to use them. In addition there is a financial loss unless they are ' found. In most cases, the loss of these books is in excusable and comes mainly as a result of the carelessness and indif ee of those to whom they are entrusted. It is hoped that those ■ntly used these books, and any ■,ons who may see one of them, >vill make it her responsibility to that they are returned to the iry. Incidentally, tliis is an ex cellent opportunity to show your school spirit in a helpful way. The lost books are as follows: French, J. L., Editor—Great Ghost Stories. Lawrence—Sons and Lovers. Bailey—Peacock Feathers. Austin—Political and Social His tory of the United States. Harper’s Magazine, December For Sale—One good cow giving milk and three hounds.—Fred Fah- (advt.)
