World Fellowship Week
Observed In Y. P. M.
Egyptian Citizen Calls For
Volunteers In World
Wide Movement
In common witli all universities
of America. Salem observed World
Fellowship Work t
Wednesday morning. The faculty
and student body were addressed
by Mr. Hagop Hagopian. Mr. Ha-
gopian is an Egyptian
Arabian born. He was graduated
from the university of Carlo and
went from there to State Collegt
Raleigh where he is now a Junior,
a candidate for a B. S. degi
came to Salem at the instigation of
the Student World F(?llowship Con
mittee of Salem.
The address was begun with
beautiful tribute to old Salem, af
ter which Mr. Hagopian wearing,
by the way, his native costume, pro
ceeded to describe his life and its
adventures which were remarkable
and devious; foremost of these in
cidents being his exile into Egypt.
He comes from Egypt but is an Ar
menian by birth. Romance of Egypt
is centered in the great Pyramids,
but reviewing these as one of the
seven wolnders of the world, the
speaker turned to the topic of ro
mance connected with missionary
work and world fellowship.
No society in existence is parallel
to missionaries and their world-
leading work. They have opened
Europe in a commercial way and
have made it possible for Christ to
enter. Problems of the missionarie
offer a wide subject.
In 1914 when the World Wa
broke out. the Turks and Arabs had
as their purpose the elimination of
all Christians and the advancement
of Mohammedanism,
drive that Mr. Hagopian lost his
father, and in which his aequain-
bjuices were sent by hundred?
sure-death-exile on the desert. They
were sheep without a shepherd
cept Christ, for whose sake they
fused to deny Christianity, and ec
sequently suffered banishment.
Among the exiles was the speaker,
alone and with no food, no water.
One day he gave up completely aiid
when he regained conscious
was being eared for by missionaries.
Tlius it proved the problem .of thi
Christian to change Mohammedai
ideas and convictions with Christ;
love. Not by the sword; not b;
the modern life, but by the Bible
and the gospel, and to tear down
the barrier between Christianity and
Mohammedanism by fellowship and
brotherhood.
Mr. Hagopian reviewed conditions
in India, Palestine, Central Africa,
in which heathenism and savagery
can be quelled only by knowledge
of Christ. War is a mere waste of
time, money and live.'

Summer Abroad
Tlie History Club held its first
i'ull-time meeting last Wednesday
evening in the Campus Living room.
Dr. Anscombe gave a most edifying,
illustrated talk on his recent
abroad. He dealt first with Bright
on, England, his former home, giving
a survey of its people and thei
customs. One of his most interesting
stories concerned Dr. Rendel Harris,
a noted English educator, and Ins
priceless library, which contains un
told wealth of Oriental Manuscripts,
and what is believed to be the Holy
Orail, the cup front which Christ
drank at the I.ast Supper.
r.eaving the rest of England and
all of Holland for discussion at the
next meeting, he related his experi
ences in Italy, and especially his
experiences in Venice.

Sophomores Win
Stunt Night Honors
Seniors Win Second Place
With Delightful Take-off
Saturday nights will come and
Saturday nights will go, but never
again can such another one as Stunt
Night provided be hoped for. For
then the whole school suffered from
a strange interlude, and the audience,
whisked from gamblers’ dens to
Salem Academy in 1880, horrified
by train wrecks, thrilled by heroic
rescues, and delighted by close ac-,
quaintance with movie star.s, sat
througliout, too tensely excited to
draw a breath and well they might,
for all the .jtunts showed the greatest
vcrness and originality, and much
‘dit is due those taking part.
The Freshmen, willing as always
h'ad the way, began the program
th a stunt in three parts. The
ing curtain disclosed Annie Shu-
ford gracefully asleep on a divan,
while the dreams of her troubled
stalked back and forth across
itage. The first consisted of
groups of girls, walking about in
future time, discussing the
:abouts and whatabouts of their
former friends; among other items of
interest, it was disclosed that Nonie
Riggan had become a matron in a
children’s orphanage, and that Lib
[arx was succeeding Helen Kane
i Boop-poop-a-doop girl. Upoin
leir departure, a History class as-
^mbled, bringing to light the utter
ignorance of the class as a whole and
the trials of the poor prof. To cap
the climax of the horrid nightmare,
;-inspiring Sophomore court
again .-isscmbled and put tlie quaking
l-'reshmen through their paces.
The Sophomores next held the
boards in the guise of the “our gang”
comiiiediaiis. Mary Lib Holcomb v.as
the able and very audible announcer,
proclaiming that the gang would give
a show, and introducing | each
act. Black Farina (Ethel Me Minn)
gave a splendid and impressive in
terpretation of a jumping bear and
then showed her versality by assist
ing with telling gestures, the be-
whiskered Prof. DeBunk (Ghilan
Hall) to give a profoundly learned
discourse on the frog. Joe Walker
representing, the bad boy of the
gang, next held the audience spell-
with ultra-modern music intoned on
the melodious jews-harp. Then the
Jean Darlin’ of the gang (Nancy
.Miller) fluttered gracefully about
the stage as Madam Butterfly, re-
ncore after cncore. Last
but far from least, Mary Ann (Mary
B. Williams) and Little Joe (Babe
'crsteen), representing Kathryn
wford and Buddy Rogers (in
excess flesh) sang “My Future
t Past” to one another with a
sweetness and sentiment that
brought the tears to many an eye.
The stately Seniors next took
' stage and raised the hair of all
their bloody tragedy. In a
_:verly rhymed prologue, Edith
Kirkland introduced the characters
and begged all to recei"c the local
digs and allusions like good sports.
The rising curtain disclosed the
fond parents Katie (Grace Martin)
•lee (Loui.se Stevenson) pac
ing back and forth in growing alarm
because. “Charles Henry has not
igned in .and it’s after 10:35!” Just
„s° Katie goes off into hysterics at
the awful thought that he might have
play instincts, the lovely heroine,
Othelia, (Marjorie Siewers) tours
in and between sobs reveals that to
test his love she has told Charles
Henry she does not love him, and
that someone has phoned her he is
out running around loose. At the
dramatic moment, Charles Henry
himself (I-ucy Currie) rushes in,
only to be turned out of the chem
istry lab. forever by his irate papa.
The second act discovers him five
years later, trying to drown his
sorrow in a gamblers’ den, with the
help of wine aad women and Charlie
