LITTLE THOUGHTS
FOR TODAY
If there be no nobility of
descent, .'ill the more inde
spensible is it there should
be nobility of ascent,-- a char
acteristic in them that bear
rule so fine and high and pure
that 'as men come within the
circle of its influence they in
voluntarily pay homage to that
which is the one ]>reminent dis
tinction, the royalty of virtue..

WHEN DAY IS DONE
Around this time of year, when
old officer.? lay aside their robes of
dignity and they are taken up by the
now, there is always a mingled feel
ing of sadness and regret. Sadness
because one cannot hold for always
tile things that life offers, for life is
hut a sucecssion of things to be taken
up and at sometime laid aside. Re
gret because perliaps one has not the
iicling that she has fulfilled her
own ideas or tliose of others, the of
fice whicli slie lias held that perhaps
>lie did not put out her best efforts
;is had been expected of her to do.
But that is jiast dead and buried—
and tliis is present!
I'lie selection of officers for the
five major organizations for 1930-
31, has apparently been so wisely
made, that the outlook should dim
the sadness and regret of a back
ward glance. In a way it might be
said that we are standing on tlie
threslu)ld of a new year. ‘The new
foundations and principles formed
in these last few weeks will be the
basis for carrying on our work in
the coming years. It is gratifying to
note the vigor and tlie enthusiasm
with wliich these new officers have
taken cliarge, and in the face of such
evident ability, lu)w could one be
])essimistie ?
For some of us tiiis change does
tirely,'for sonic of us will still carry
on, but those of us who arc giving-
over our last vestiges of honor are
satisfied to see them go into capable
liands. The Salem Spirit has ever
been an insj)iring guide, and this
year she seems to send a brighter
light into the unknown, but hopeful
furture of us all.

You will like Kotex
because of its rounded
tapered corners
■
Kotex is shaped to fit. That
means you have inconspicuous
protection. You can feel immacu
late and dainty, for Kotex deodor
izes most effectively.
Then, too, Kotex is hygienical ly
safe. Over 85% of our leading hos
pitals have chosen the very same
material of which Kotex is made,
because of its remarkable efficiency
and surgical purity.
Kotex, you know, is made of Cel^
lucotton (not cotton) absorbent
wadding ... a cellulose substance
which performs the same sanitary
funaion as the finest cotton, but
with five times the absorbency.
Kotex is disposable. Just think
what that faa alone means.

KOTEX IS SOFT .. .
1—Not a deceptive softness, that
soon packs into chafing hard
ness. But a delicate, lasting
2-Kotexfiller is far lighter and
cooler than cotton, yet absorbs
5 times as much.
5—Disposable, instantly, com
