At The Theatres It is probably a very good thing that we cannot be here after Wed nesday as far as the shows are con cerned—for I am afraid the book ings for next -week are poor. “Spring is Here” is the feature for the first-half of next week at the Carolina.

All of the bg pictures will play at The State and I hear it is going to be a very good looking theater. MATH CLUB HOLDS OPEN- MEETING (Continued From Page One.) mathematics yet there are mathe matics in he Bible. The Hebrew notation is so different and diffi cult that we are not familiar with it. One letter can not be multiplied by the other. It is very easy to be mis taken, yet the copies are not to be blamed, nor the validity to be doubt ed. They knew nothing of decimals nor the use of mathematical dis tinction. Blonde: “What’s the matter with the leading lady?” Brunette: “She only got nine bo- quets of flowers tonight.” Blonde: “Good heavens, isn’t that enough?” Brunette: “No, she paid for ten.” “The reason I beat the Aus tralians is, they did not know the value of five minutes.” —Napoleon I Intercollegiate News Festivities of Easter Week at the University of Virginia will include ree dances, a baseball game with Princeton and one with V. M. L, a play, a Glee Club concert, and two other shows. Edward Wilde a Russian student Moravian is writing a series of articles on conditions and some of his experiences in his native land for The College News. Students at the East Carolina Teachers College are looking for ward eagerly to the lecture to be given by Count Von Luekner, the German “Sea Devil” of World War fame on April 14. A chapter of the Alpha Psi Amega honoring dramatic fraternity was in- italled with ten charter members at Lenoir Rhyi;ie College last week. Among the colleges where the Shakespearean Players have pre sented “Macbeth” recently are Wake Forest and E. C. T. .C. The May Day Festival at the Farmville State Teachers College this year is to be centered around the 'ld German legend “Nibelungen Ring” or the stealing of the Rhine- gold, the theme used by Wagner in his Ojjcr.i “Das Rhinegold.” King College at Briston, Virginia, publishes an interesting article ad vocating better treatment of college freshmen. It states that the fresh men will get more out of their first year and will make better upper classmen if not hampered by abuse. All colleges seem to have as their chief topics for headliners this week elections and debating. The N. C. C. W. “Carolinian” thinks that the persons who fix spring vacation dates for N. C. col leges have no regard for that precious little thing called love. Book Review SILVER MOON Some night when you feel in a reading mood, and you snap on the light by your bed, and get comfort able what will you read? Silver Moon by Abbott is one of the gay est, most delightfully written books for light reading imaginable. The authoress has revealed her own charming personality in the pleasing way she has written her book. Sil ver Moon is the tale of an eldery “maiden lady,” who had been, a reigning belle in her younger days. No character more charming than this one has been created in mod ern novels. She decides to give a houseparty which is to include the first child of each of her most ardent admirers in past years. She chooses six of these men, and invites the “younger element.” There are three girls and three boys, and the ad ventures they have furnish great amusement and interest for the read er. When the guests arrive, the host ess, whom they have never seen, is not there to greet them, nor does she appear for days. Many compliea- tious and humorous events occur, and with the delightful love story which threads its way throughout the whole novel, Silver Moon becomes one of the best written and most enjoyable light stories of its time. Special Announcement of Interest to Salem Students Music loving readers, and friends of Salem College will be greatly interested in the proposed National Boadeasting presenting a new opera over the air composed by Charles Sanford Skilton, of the University of Kansas, at Lawrence, Kansas. Mr. Skilton was for a number of years Head of the Department of Music at Salem College preceding the late Dean Shirley. He became very well known in this immediate community and throughout the State through his connection with Salem College, and has since achieved Na tional distinction both as a teacher of music and as a composer. H i s distinguished composition “The Guardian Angel” is based on a story connected with the founding of Wachovia in 1753. Dr. Skilton was a devoted student of local his tory, and has carried forward into his'work at the University of Kan sas various projects in musical com position which he initiated at Salem College. On Thursday, April 17th, from 11 to 12 midnight, Eastern Stand ard Time there will be a nation wide hookup broadcasting Dr. Skil- ton’s one act opera “The Siin Bride.” This will beS given over WEAF’, from New York, including WRVA from Richmond, Virginia and WBT from Charlotte, North Carolina. The theme of this production is taken from the life of the Pueblo Indians amongst whom Dr. Skilton snent some time in residence at Indian Hills, near Denver. It was there that he heard the legend of Blue Feather, as told at Pueblo-Bonito in Arizona since his toric times. In this opera the com poser has employed several tribal melodies. The “Sun God” is represented by a Winnebago Sunrise Song also used with different treatment as the opening number of the “Suite Primeval.” This melody was sup plied by Geo. La Mere, a Winnebago Indian. The Gambling motive is a Chip pewa melody from Frances Dena- more’s bulletin of the American Bureau of Ethnology. Bluefeather is characterized by a motive of the composer’s own, also the Sun Bride. The four motives are presented in the short prelude, and in the open ing aria in which the Sun Bride, sup posing herself alone, pours out her heart to the Dawn. (Continued From Page One.) the accompaniment enchancing and enriching the effect of the melody. Allbinez’s “Segindella” brought Miss Marsden’s second group to a close. This lively Spanish dance was given with much spirit and sparkle and was enthusiastically re ceived by the audience. Mr. Schofield’s first selection in ARCADE f ASHON SHOP And Its COMPLETE DEPTS.

In Mr. Schofield’s next number, “The Cave,’ by Schneider, he gave a lovely tone picture of shadowy woodland' scenes and the spiritual peace to be found in syl van solitudes. ; In his interpretati&ii of- “Thfe Wandering! Jew,” by Morris, he showed extraordinary emotional ca pacity and insight. Miss Marsden’s nrogram reached a brilliant climax in the Grieg Con certo in A Minor. This:'is a work of the first magnitude. 'Miss Mars den’s splendid technical equipment enabled her'to play the difficult Allegro Moderato movement with the greatest fluency apd ?ase., , But s went beyond technical disp^Iay ,and showed a perfect conception of .this Concerto’s deep, poetic spirit. Dean Vardell played the orchestian part on the organ. ^ Miss Marsden’s ushers were Miss es Helen Johnson, Emily Sargent, Louise Swaim, Ina Cox, Martha Mc Kay, and Doris Kimel. “When the outlook i ry the uplook.” “Choose a book' - choose a friend. ” CANDY BARS and CHEWING GUM 3 10c THE GREAT ATLANTIC & PACIFIC TEA CO.
