SENIORS DENOUNCE THE QUIET LIFE Itt the words of Mr. Downs, if the Seniors find that by some mis take they are actually on campus during a week-end, they feel that they have been cheated of their birthrights. So off they go, to Greensboro, High Point, Charlotte, Durham, Chapel Hill, Home- Town, anywhere—just so their names are on Miss Lawrence’s traveler’s chart before noon on Sunday, and their feet are under some strange table for at least one meal before ten Sunday night. The travelers and their journeys for last week-end ran as follows; Babby and Martha Neal to Waynes- ville, (Martha complimenting Mr. McEwen on his new suit during the entire trip), Florence McCannlesa, Betty Tuttle and Ann Vann to Chap el Hill; Frances Hill Norris, Eachel Carroll, Jane Williams and Pat Pad- rick to see Greensboro, High Point and Jellie Leftwitch; Anne Taylor to Greensboro and Cokey Preston to Charlotte. And for those Seniors who did hap pen to stay on campus for a change there were several visitors to keep them entertained. Dot Moora^'s mother came up Saturday, and help ed her buy a most startling and at tractive red and green dress to play with and look at over Sunday. A favorite ‘ ‘ French ’ ’ cousin of Bushy’s arrived unexpectedly Mon day and teased her about her new ly curled hair which was at the moment just ready to be photo graphed for the Annual. Mary Katherine Thorpe and Frances (Pansy) Hill were here last Sunday, visiting Seniors in general, as wore also Wanna Mary Huggins McAn- nally and Mary Drew Dalton In gram (golly, those two have lots of name to be so little) on Monday. Diehl and Harry, from Salisbury sent a charming prize package to Margaret Ward and Pat Padrick Sunday to announce their arrival for Sunday night supper. Their self- imposed invitation was on this or der: “Reserve a table for four at the Salemiteria, whieili ttable was straightway reserved. Maybe after this opera is over, the Seniors will quiet down and do a little studying. It’s about time. SOPHOMORES ENTER TAIN FRESHMEN AT HAYWOOD FARM “I fight to the finish ’Cause I eat my spinach. I’m Pop Eye, the Sailor Man.” Saturday evening the above re frain was brought back on the ^ving^ of the wind to Salem College, where the Juniors and Seniors looked with longing eyes toward the setting sun, in which direction their little sis ter classes had disappeared in three big trucks. The occasion was an entertain ment, a very unusual one, on the part of the Sophomores in honor of the Freshmen. This enjoyable and unusual fete was made possible by the kindness of Mary Louise Hay wood, who gave us the use of, not only her cunning little cottage, but also the whole farm. Everyone seemed to enjoy the trip out to the farm in the trucks, but they had a real treat in store for them when they got to ramble through the cottage, garden, and to see the calves. The interior of the house gives the environment which the motto over the door of the cozy living room suggests, ‘ ‘ Old wood to burn. Old books to read. Old friends to trust.” Beside this motto are shelves of books, and across from it, a huge stone fireplace containing a wood fire with a crane,—and the friends? We were all friends. And Mary Louise trusted us to go all over the house without her being afraid we’d carry off the cute little roof-look-out or the shotgun lamp, or tlie folding stairway. The climax of the evening was caused by little Jo Whitehead who, by pulling an ivy covered vine, rang the supper bell. When ‘ ‘ night lowered its cur tains” graciously over the number of hot dogs we had eaten, the group left the red checked covered tables 13 C IE T 1C y ^ “Poetry is not greatly eon'cerned witli what a man thinks, but with what is so embodied in his nature that it never occurs to him to question it, not a matter of whieli idea he holds, but of the depth at wieh lie holds it.” —Ezra Pound. ASTRONOMY Whether there are peopled stars Other than our own and man’s, We shall either know or not When we’ve done with what we’ve got. But there’s something stranger far Than wee folk on a great star. When there dwell such mighty skies In such little people’s eyes. —Witter Bynner. THREE THINGS Three things filled this day for me. Three common things filled this day; Each had, for me, a word to say; Said it in beauty, and was done: Cows on a hillside all one way, A buttercup tilted seductively. And a lark arguing with the sun. These three things, merely these three, Were enough to cry the world Out of my heart; the buttercup curled AVhere some gorgeous ruffian j)lundered; The skylark’s dizzy flag un furled; WAY-STATION The incoherent rushing of the train Dulls like a drugged pain N Numbs To an ether throbbing of inaud ible drums. Unfolds Hush within hush until the night withholds Only its darkness. From, the deep Dark a voice calls like a voice in sleep Slowly a strange name in a strange tongue Among The sleeping liset esrasoud The sleeping listeners a sound As leaves stir faintly on the ground When snow falls from a windless sky A stir, a sigh —Archibald MrcLeish. an,d grouped iabout the borbeque fire and ate ice cream. Dr. and Mrs. Rondthaler,, Mr. Cur- lee, Miss Eiggan and Mr. Campbell added much fun to the joyful eve ning. And so with their minds and stomachs at peace with the world three truckloads of girls arrived at Salem ^College singing: “I’ll fight to the finish ’Cause I cat my spinach. I’m Pop Eye, the Sailor Man” 'ROUND AND ABOUT WITH SOPHS AND JUNIORS Carolina surely was in the line up for Juniors this week-end! Garnell Eainey and .lean Robinson went down Friday while MoArn Best and Marianna Hooks followed them Saturday. Lucy Janies decided she’d be dif ferent and toured off to Davidson for a perfect week-end. There must have been an epidem ic of homesickness among the Jun iors, because little Dell (Huggins), Aggie Brown and Virginia Thomp son, all three, went homs for Sat urday and Sunday. supper! The Sophomores just brought them in by the dozens, aren’t you other leassmen jealous? “And a good time was had by all”—tlie hay ride, a full moon, good food, and Mary Lou’s farm made aSturday night a perfect night for,the Sophoniore-Freshman party! ART EXHIBIT SPONSORED BY “Y” IS BIG SUCCESS Madeline Smith and Gert Schwall)e spent Sunday down in Burlington. Lib Rankin had plenty of trans portation home Friday, between “Tiny” and Uncle Pat she certain ly should have arrived there. We wonder if she patched things up with Bill? Was a certain Sophomore surprised when she heard that Ed had come all the way up from Carolina to see her Sunday? Is there need for an answer, Lou? Frankie Meadows, Martha Nolan and Tuck Talley went over to spend Sunday in High Point. Tee (Virginia) Council’s fam ily came up to see her Saturday. Margaret Council came to pay us a visit, we were all glad to see her again. Stay out here for Sunday dinner? Why, Ethel, Jr., and Narvanna just couldn’t, so they “ups and goes” to the arolinian Coffee Shop with Cramer and Dot. Never in all Salem’s history were there so many men at Sunday night’s Salem College faculty showed its originality last Friday, October 19, at an art exhibit sponsored by the Y. W. C. A. For the meni.al sum of ten cents faculty and students were admitted into the recreation room of Louisa Wilson Bitting Building to view the most interest ing and varied art exhibit ever giv en at Salem. The artists ranged in size from Buddy Downs (1 & 1-2 years) to Dr. Rondthaler (?—,) and the pictures showed such contrast ing scenes as a “Mean Cow With Whiskers on a Railroad Track” and “Metropolis.” A few of the stud ents were asked to contribute to the display. Such great wroks of art as “La Danse du Fruit Defendu,” “Dude Descending the Staircase,” “Apolo gies to Sam Johnson,” “The Last Round-Up,” “Meinung Town,” “Did You Ever See a Dream Walk ing,” “Family Portrait by Willow- Bee, ” “ Bust of Balloon by Pinn, ’ ’ “Dr. Rondy Goes Fisliing,” “An Old Maid’s Prayer,” “Cranial Nerves,” and “The House that T. C. L. F. Built” were shown. Each person was asked to vote on his favorite picture. Miss Elizabeth Jerome won first place with her perfect drawing entitled “Dr. Roud- thaler as Seen from Home Morav ian Church Tower. ” Dr. Rondthaler ran Miss .Terome a close second with his clever portrait ofetaoin shrdlu his clever picture of chapel and its exercises which he entitled “8:35 A. M. ” Honorable mention must be given each artist for his ingenuity and artistic ability. Of course the peanuts, candy, and butter-boy bars that were sold put each person in a pleasakit moodi (for eating an\d I)rovoked a forgiving attitude. At 9:30 under the direction of the very capable auctioneer, Mary Penn, each picture sold at a terrific rate for a terrific price. The Y. W. C. A. wants to thank each contributor and each person who attended the exhibit for help ing to make it all such a great suc cess. A STRAIGHT FROM THE SHOULDER MESSAGE!
