SENIORS CELEBRATE
IVY PLANTING
(continued from page one)
quent growth as we receive nourish
ment from her soil. Our intellectual
food is gotten primarily from our
teachers; our social and spiritual de
velopment is nourished by our contact
with the faculty and student body and
from the spirit of the atmosphere
created by the lives of these faculty
members and students. We have been
guided in the road of mental and
spiritual strength by Salem College
and are better able to face crises in
our lives more bravely and with more
self-control. Moreover,' we guard
our Alma Mater more zealously with
our love and appreciation as the ivy
protects the walls on which it grows.
We, the class of 1934, charge the
Trustees, the faculty, student body,
and alumnae to keep strong and in
spirational, the support and founda
tion, as symbolized by these walls and
soil on which our future love and de
votion to Salem, the ivy, their sym
bol, greatly depend.
Miss Marion Hadley, the toast mis
tress, introduced Miss Georgia Hunt
ington, who gave the following toast
to Dr. Rondthaler:
If I were to say that he’s all he
should be and all we could want; if
I were to say that we miss him every
time he goes away and are glad every
time he comes back, would it be hard
for any of us to guess of whom I
speak ?
Salem wouldn’t be Salem to any of
us without Dr. Rondthaler, and nei
ther would Ivy Day be of great sig
nificance without him.
Miss Hadley next introduced. Miss
Beth Norman, who gave the follow
ing toast to the faculty:
As we plant today the ivy with
which we hope to keep green Salem’s
memory of our class, we pause to pay
tribute to our faculty. It is you who
have set up the goal toward which we
have struggled for these four years.
You have showed us the path we must
follow to gain it. You have guided
our footsteps and helped us past each
difficulty along the way. And now,
as we approach the attainment of
this goal, we wish to thank you for
your unfailing patience, for your con
stant encouragement, for your stead
fast guidance. The class of ’34 sal
ute you!
Miss Mary Ollie Biles was then in
troduced and read the following toa^t:
Students, have you ever wondered,
“What’s it all about?
And what’s this institution here for
anyway?”
Well—I am going to tell you now,
this Ivy Planting Day.
It’s for the students past and out.
And for the students present here to
day.
And for the students of a great to-
And a greater college, yet to be
And the spirit of Salem which makes
as one—all three.
The last toast was given by Miss
Susan Calder to the halls and campus;
For every love there must be reason—
May our love we now present?
For every reason there must be love—
Our reasons you won’t resent.
We can’t help loving home—that’s
I>ouisa Bitting.
To our past homes,. too, love seems
fitting.
They are Clewell, Lehman, and Soc
iety.
Each has memories as you can see!
For some the lab stands first, you
Main Hall and the Library just won’t
let us go.
The Practice House’s dear because it s
Without the dining room what would
we do?
An oft-visited favorite-— the Salem
Book Store;
South Hall and The Hut could be
loved no more.
Memorial Hall and the Church we of-
Also the Infirmary with its milk and
The President’s home we can’t forget.
Nor any of the persons we have met.
The Sister’s House and all the rest.
So here’s to the college that we love
best!
At this time, each Senior marched
to the side of the Practice House,
where she put a shovel of dirt around
the ivy. At the root of the plant was
buried a copper tube containing a
copy on parchment of the oration and
toasts made during the service.
The celebration closed with the sing
ing of the “Alma Mater.”
Sympathy is extended to Mr. L. N.
Cashion, of the Commercial Printing
Co. in the loss of his father; and to
Mr. Harry Long, one-time director
of Physical Education at Salem in
the loss of his mother.

MISS ANNA PRESTON
SPEAKS TO STUDENT
BODY
Thursday, April 19, Miss Anna
Preston, Field Secretary of the Alum
nae Association, gave a most delight
ful talk in chapel.
Miss Preston reminded |the istu-
dents that it is not long before they
will be tearfully saying goodbye to
their roommates and friends. When
they' get home with their “high par
ticulars” under a notorious June moon
they are not entirely to forget Sal
em and the good times they had.
The object of Miss Prestoil’s talk
was for each girl to “make a date”
for some June night, chase the “roost
ers” away, and have a regular “hen
party”, and try to give the girls in
her town an idea of how wonderful
Salem College is.
To make the party even more per
fect, Miss Preston has promised to
come and join the girls with the mo
tion pictures of Salem, if they will
make a “date” with her soon.

AN EXPECTED PICNIC
Did you ever go on a picnic where
you expected lots of good food and
when you arrived there found n
Well, thaat’s what happened at
off-campus picnic held on the night
of the Junior Opera—Ring of the
Need-A~Lv!ngs. Many students had
promised to come, but when the time
for it arrived, they did not show up.
At first there were only four at the
picnic and two of the four had
brought cakes—a big angel food cake
with pink icing (maybe I should say
filling, but anyway, you know what
I mean) and a handsome banaha
cake (Now, don’t you criticize my
handsome cake. I know a very learn
ed man whose hobby is baking hand
some cakes.) The other two students
bought at the store a small can of
corned beef, tomatoes, and a loaf of
sliced bread. They forgot all about
mayonnaise and lettuce. About this
time, a fifth student arrived, but this
one was on a diet; therefor, she could
not eat what the others ate and did
not buy mayonnaise or lettuce. Two
more arrived. The stores across the
street had closed, but this did not
stop the last two. They walked half
way to Waughtown'to get mayonnaise,
pickles, and a loaf of bread. They
forgot the lettuce, too. Finally, after
seven o’clock (the picnic had been
scheduled for six) the picnic began,
and also the trouble. There was only
an old silver knife with which to cut
the bread. The bread had to be saw
ed and sawed upon before a slice was
cut (The second loaf was unsliced)
After sawing away on the bread for
some time the students were too tired
io eat, but all the food disappeared
just the same.
LIFE
Why should I, an atom
In an infinite, boundless space,
Scorn a fellow human
Because of his life or place?
Why should I exalt my works
And count earthly honors sublime?
All will be gone in an instant.
Swept away by the stream o'f time.
Our brief moment bursts like a
bubble,
Years obliterate all fame;
Tomorrow we shall sleep in silence
Men vfill not pause to praise or
blame.
SALEM REPRESENTED
AT GREENSBORO
Last Friday was College Day 'ai
Greensboro High School. At this
time representatives from twenty-
five of the leading colleges of the
South and the North spoke to the
four hundred Seniors. The stu
dents were divided into three grou;^,
so each representative made his taJk
three times. After the talks each
college had a table in the library
where catalogues, pictures, hand
books, etc., were displayed.
Salem was represented by Mi„
Susan Calder, who talked to the
students, and Miss Anna Preston,
■who assisted in explaining to the
students who came to the library for
further information.
The representatives feel that the
participation was a ^eat suec
as many girls seemed interested.
EDITOR’S HELP
Of great assistance to the editor
this week was Miss Kathleen Adkins,
who has been on the staff three years.
Miss Adkins did much work both in
giving assignments and proofreading.

JUST THE LITTLE
THINGS IN LIFE
Just a Freshman in history class, her
tales of use and strife.
She’s found out that wars are just
the little things in life.
And a Sophomore in English Lit, quot
ing Browning by sight.
Has found out that poets are just the
little things in life.
A little psych, a little ed, the Junior
strives to fill her head.
Yet all the time she’s thinking of what
And a little quiz in Bible or chemistry
will make a senior fight
For she’s found out that graduation
is the biggest thing in life.
