Elaborate House Party
I'lu })ositi\elv all “ag'g.a’—You

just rolled in from the sorority

darling Rill Pierce —honestly I liave
never s(>en such a devoted couple,
and Minnie Ilicks’ Bill Tomilson is
as devoted as ever, but confidential
ly I believe she likes Glen Garrett
miglity well.
The danee was positively the
“rushiest” oiu- I have ever attended.
The hall was transformed into a

THE S A L E M I T E
Venus Hall
Nears Completion
Junior Hall, However, Is Still
Campus Favorite
Acnt through Bidding Hall
yesterday, which, as you all know
dwelling place for all
girls weighing less than one lii:
dred and twelve pounds. Ver
Hall, we think is should be named,
and thus we are going to designate
Well, as we were saying, we
through Venns Hall' and on
all sides saw modern conveniences
which we found desirable. We shall
v attempt to give you an aocurate
account of the interior because non
of you can even so much as get t
the front door in present processes
of visualization.
The first plan of the architect
w'as to have the ground floor all one
big room with a number of settees,
Persian rugs, and a great natural
stone fire jjlace at each end. How
ever, he was afraid that would look
too nnich like (Jrovc Park Inn, and
not wishing to copy a .second class
hotel, he decided to have two rooms
connected by French doors. One
room is to be furnished in ma
hogany with velvet draperies and
dark oriental rugs. The walls are
to be lined with books. Books which
must all be the very best and latest
fiction. There is no place in the
library of Venus Hall for The Pro
cess of Teaching in the Secondary
School. Kurope since 1815, or any
such low brow literature. The other
room is to be furnished in light
colors, the draperies are to be
bright, the woodwork golden, the
cushions red and blue and yellow.
The floor must be covered with the
gayest of rugs, hand woven in
Persia. In this room there are a
grand piano, a .Mason-IIamlin, we
think, a cabinet radio and an ortho-
plujnic victrola. By special request
from the near venuses who hope to
dwell therein, these rooms are to
be furnished thus. Nothing is done
without s])ccial permission from the
girls.
\Vv went up the winding stairs
t‘,' the hall room which comprises
the entire second floor. A most
magnificient ])lace it is with its rich
draperies and great potted palms.
There we got in the elevator and
visited the third, fourth and fifth
floors which contain the private
suites for the girls. Kach girl has
her own suite of roouvs, furnished
in any way she chooses with the very
best furniture to be bought. One
entire side of each bedroom is ar
ranged to l>e used as a closet for the
Paris gowns of the young venuses.
However, as the girls are com))lain-
ing of too little room, the architect
is ])laning to extend the clo.set across
the other wall.
In the wall, just at the bead of
the bed, is a button, which when
pushed, reveals a tiny golden shelf
on which are cigarettes( chewing
gum of fifty seven varieties and a
special place to deposit used chcw'-
ing gum. Each girl has a room in
cluded in her suite in which her own
personal maid dwells and may be
sunnuoned by the tapping of a bell.
.Most of tile meals will be served
in bed, unless a girl is not feeling
well and gets uj) to go to class. In
case of tiiat, meals will be served
the sun ))orcb next to the library.
At the back of the house there is
the stable where each girl keeps
her saddle horse or horses. Next to
the stable is tlie garage which con
tains the Rolls-Royce or the airplane
of each girl. There must be some
way to get to class, you know.
We came out just a shade disap
pointed in \'enus Hall, it all seem
ed rather shabby and bare. How
ever, we made allowances to the
fact that the ground floor is not
yet couijletely furnished and we had
to draw oiir pictures from the archi
tect’s description. However, when
the library furniture, which has to
be im])orted from Vienna, arrives,
we are sure we will be very well
satisfied with the building.

You never need feel
self-conscious . .
wearing this sanitary pad
iigii
WHAT a relief to know that
you can depend completely
on Kotex! You aren’t handicapped
by self-consciousness or embarrass-
Kotex, you know, is the sanitary
pad that is fashioned to fit. It is
just wide enough, just long enough
and it’s made of a remarkable sub
stance known as Cellucotton absor
bent wadding, which is not cotton,
but a cellulose substance that’s really
five times more absorbent than cotton.
Eighty-five per cent of our leading
hospitals now use this very same
Kote.x absorbent.
Here's the reason so many women
began to use Kotex; it is easily dis
posable. Buy a box. Try it.
Kotex Company, Chicago, Illinois.
KOTEX IS SOFT . . .
f —Not a deceptive softness, that
soon packs into chafing hard
ness. But a delicate, lasting
softness.
2 —Deodorizes, safely, thor
oughly, by a special process.
Disposable, instantly, com
pletely.
Ask to see the KOTEX BELT and
KOTEX SANITARY APRON at any
drug, dry Koods or department store.
K O T e X
The New Sanitary Pad which deodorizes
A lady drove into a filling station
thre other day and said the indicator
pointed to one half, but she didn’t
know' whether that meant that it
was half full or half empty.
First partner: “When our friend
Calttcs arrived home from his Eur
opean trip he fell on his face and
kissed the pavement.”
Second partner: “Emotion?”
First partner: “No, banana skin.”
“Consider the postage stamp, my
friend, its usefulness consists of
its ability to stick to one thing till
it gets there.” *
