The second group of solo numbers was played by Miss Cooke, who terpreted Mendelssohn’s “Praelu- dium in E Minor” as her first selec tion, a technically difficult piece. The contrasts which she gave in Chopin’s “Mazurka, op. 33, No. 4.” were excellent, showing a real under standing of its changing moods. Her last number was “Egeria” by Kroe- ger. In this composition the left- hand melody sang out prettily, and the “rippling” accompaniment of the right hand added to its beauty. Miss Pulp’s concluding selections were a fitting climax to her solo num bers. Debussy’s harmonies made “Serenade for the Doll” a peculiarly modern work, and Miss Fulp seemed to get the spirit of its playful theme and definite mood. She also played Debussy’s “The Little Shepherd.” MacDowell’s “Witches’ Dance” was the last solo number given by Miss P’ulp. In this performance a sound teclinique was displayed in the skill with which she played its many fast runs and tricky passages. This piece was indeed a brilliant climax to Miss Fulp’s program as soloist. Miss Cooke’s concluding number was also by MacDowell. She played “Concert Etude,” a piece suited to a concert, with a finish which showed technical skill and virtuoso brilliance. This program Was closed by a selection for two pianos, “Valse” from Suite for Two Pianos by Aren- BISHOP PFOHL REGRETS HIS ABSENCE AT COM MENCEMENT On the Isle of St. Thomas a ravian Missions Convention is t held at Whitsuntide, May 15, to which Bishop Pfohl will go , delegate from this province. Tliis particular convention is the bi-( tennial celebration of Moravian Mis sions, which were begun on the Isle of St. Tliomas in 1732. Briefly Bish op Pfohl reviewed the story of the first two Moravian missionaries, who sailed from Copenhagen two hundred years ago and landed on an obscure island in the Atlantic. There they endured severe hardships in order to teach the gospel to the negro slaves on that island. From that time the progress of all missionary work has become an example of how great things can grow out of small begin nings. Moravian missions have spread the world, particularly in those fields where other churches have nt representatives. Since the celebration of this portant work coincides with the Salem commencement. Bishop Pfohl find it impossible to be here. To the Seniors he especially expressed re gret that he cannot present to them their diplomas. sky. The players stayed absolutely together in rhythm and in interpre tation, and they shaded the melody phrases of this valse nicely. Ushers'for the recital were Misses Hazel Bradford, Irene Clay, Novella Dixon, Helen Fowler, Lois Naff, and Carmi Warner. Y. W. C. A.

At eight o’clock the Pierrette Play ers presented a fantasy in one act, “Pierrot of the Minute,” under the direction of Beulah Mae Zachary. The lighting effects were particular ly good, and the two characters, Mary Virginia Pendergraph and Edith Kirkland, were given an unusual op portunity to show their dramatic tal ent. Bringing the gala day to a close, a dance was held in the hut, where music was furnished by a negro orchestra. LECTURE AT THIS WEEK’S Y. P. M. conceal a feeling of inferiority, since saying that one is afraid is less pain ful to the ego than sayng that one incapable. If a person feels inse re, he may turn this feeling to fear. Perhaps his nerves are unstrung be cause he is physically tired. Often, slie declared unmercifulley, fear is a childish trick to attract attention, or “the thing to do.” One of those reasons is usually why a girl jumps on a chair when she sees a le OT buries her head in a pil low at the sight of lightning. Her suggestions for ridding one self of fears were most practical. “If the fears are known and the re sponses established,” she said, “de liberately put yourself in those conditions in order to prove that your fears are groundless.” If the fears are unknown, but are only suspected, frankly assure yourself as to whether the condition or ob ject is dangerous. Learn whether an animal is feared because he is dangerous or because another per son is afrain of it. Realize that you are exactly like other people as to nervous structure. In conclusion she urged the stu dents not to be afraid of examina tions. Much of the nervous excite ment is indulged in because every one else is doing it, and excitement draws attention. While it may be fun, it is dangerous to one’s exam ination grade, i Be well prepared, keep your head, and there will be nothing to fear. Since the same physiological mechanism can pro duce both energy and fear, it is best to turn this mechanism toward constructive work. SENIORS ARE HONORED BY JUNIOR CLASS that was enthusiastically received. The Junior class president bade fare well to the guests who departed re luctantly enough after they were e that the musicians would play longer. The entertainment was of the most elaborate and de lightful that has ever been given by iollege students. When Duty comes gate, for if you bid him DUTY knocking c te.
