A student’s rec ord- in college shows what the youth will be outside of college. There are 2 kinds of scholarship—the scholar ship of the ant and that of the bee. The ant goes out and collects and piles everything as he finds it so that it can be identified. But the bee has a collection that cannot be identified.

Some scholars know every thing but understand nothing. The spirit of mastery of truth, of inquiry, should be sought! Thursday: Dr. Rondthaler recognized and called attention to the extraordinary achievement of the Senior class last night. He was amazed at the ab sence of any “mix-up” in the chaos of those familiar selections. Then too, the incredible stage setting was indeed a masterpiece. Such flowers were made to bloom as this world has never before see. Dr. Eondthaler also called attention to the new aud itorium platform which had been contributed by those who are loyal to Salem. The Biblical reading for the day was a selection from Genesis dealing with the life history of Joseph. Friday: Mrs. George Hemingway invited the college to the play entitled “Family AJbum” in which we would all be afforded an opportunity to see our relatives and ancestors way back in the ’50s, ’60s, ’70s. We would be permitted to see the first automobile that our ancestors possessed and the various styles of head dress. Dr. Rondthaler announced that this pe riod is producing new books on the /Old Testament. Recently records have been found that bear the name of Joseph and James which show that they really lived. Dr. Bond thaler continued with his reading on Joseph’s life. Saturday: Jane Williams invited the c|ol- leges to open House in the Recreation Room of Louisa Bitting. Dr. Rond thaler related the story of Joseph interpreting idreams. Joseph jhad entered into the situation of service not in his own name. Pharoah had a dream which no one but Joseph could interpret for him. And for his service Pharoah rewarded Joseph and made him ruler over all Egypt. His story is an interpretation of respon sibility.

Now the autumn clambers Up the trellised frame And the rose remembers The dust from which it came. Brighter than the blossom On the rose’s bough Sits the wizened, orange Bitter berry now. • Beauty never slumbers. All is in her name, But the rose remembers The dust from which it came. —Edna St. Vincent Millay. DOOR-MATS Women are door-mats and have been.

PARTING GIFT I cannot give you the Metropoli tan Tower, I cannot give you heaven; Nor the nine Visigoth Crowns in the Cluny Museum; Nor happiness, even. But I can give you a very small purse Made out of field-mouse skin, With a painted picture of the universe And seven blue stars therein. I cannot give you the island of Capri; I cannot give you beauty; Nor bake you MwvelOMs crusty cherry pies ollivem. With love and duty. But I can give you a very little locket Made out of wildcat hide; Put it into your left-hand pocket And never look inside. —Elinor Wvlie. LEAF MOVEMENT From its thin branch high in the autumn wind The yellow leaf now sails in up ward flight; Hovers a top-slope; then, a whirl ing bright Eddy of motion, sinks. The storm behind With gusts and veering tyrannies would uphold Even as it downward beats this gorgeous tiling Which like an angel’s lost and sliattered wing Against the grey sky sweeps its broken gold. Another eddy, desperate or in niirtli, Brings it to rest here on the Cracked earth Where men can see it better than on the bough. What quite preposterous irony of wind’s will Touches it where it lies, golden and still, And once more lifts it vainly heavenward now! —Athur Davison Ticks. HOW NOT TO UGHT A BRIDGE TABLE Think of trying to play bridge hy the light of two candles, stuck in bottle tops."^ Yet that is the equivalent of the light in many homes — a level of illumination that will make any party drag. For gayer, livelier parties, use an indirect portable lamp. It pro vides the ideal light shadowless and glareless — for playing bridge and other games in comfort . . . and an equally efficient light for a quiet evening of reading.

Mr. Stringfield, who expressed him self as being well pleased with the reception accorded the orchestra at the first concert on October 19, said that two more concerts will be presented during the season. The concerts were arranged at the request of parents and music lovers, who said the children were unable to attend the evening performances and asked if afternoon concerts could be arranged. These were worked out by Mr. Stringfield nearly one month ago. The program for the concert Fri day will include some of the num bers which have been played at var ious concerts here and in other cities during the current season. All of | these numbers have been well re ceived on their presentation. The program follows: “Russian and Ludmilla,” by Glin- kaj^ “Festival at Bagdad,” from “Scheherazade,” by Rimsky-Korsa- kow; “Danse Macabre,” by Saint Saens; “En Bateau,” by Debussy and “Marche Slave,” by Tschaikow- sky. Quinto Maganina, young director of the New York Chamber Sym phony, will be guest conductor of the North Carolina Symphony Or chestra at the concert to be ]>re- sented here Monday night at 8:30 o’clock in R-eynolda Memorial Audi torium. Lamar Stringfield, musical direc tor of the North Carolina Symphony Orchestra, will relinquish the baton at this concert to Maganini. How ever, the program to be played at the concert will be selected by CHILDISH AMBITIONS GUESS WHO Ben V. Matthews Photographers 4th Street Attempts At Being Boyish I have always felt very bitterly about being a girl. I wanted to be sweet and lovely and dainty, but I had square jaws and broad, square shoulders, and I knew it. little Little Elizabetli had dark blue eyes with long black lashes; Susan had a tiny mouth and a funny giggle; I had a sturdily-built body. That was splendid—for a little boy. I tried being mean. Elizabeth shapped me and I ‘ ‘ told on her. ’ ’ But I sat be hind the lilac bush in the back yard and cried whenmother switched her.

The dusty, clean smell of hay hung in the air. Soft clouds of smell of smell would rise every time you dived into the hay. Suddenly I looked toward the big doors that were used to let in the loads of hay. “Banks, I’ll jump out of here if you will.” Right away I wished I hadn’t spoken. Banks walked over and opened the big doors; he paused on the edge and looked down. After a moment he jumped. I rushed to the doors. “Was it hardT” “No, now you jump.” I drew back and looked uneasily around. The barn was strange and awful. As I looked at the ground it seemed to be farther an dfarther away. “Do I have to jump?” I called. ‘ ‘ Sure you do. Yon said you would. ’ ’ I sat down on the edge and looked again. My stomach was all hollow and my heart beat in little rushes. I grasped the edge and let myself down slowly. I took a deep breath, closed my eyes and turned loose. Was this crumpled heap really me? I tried to stand and fell back. The two boys stood down by the water ing trough and didn’t even move. Struggling between loughter and tears, I got up. My right ankle felt as if it had a steel band around it. I was scared, I wanted to run. I stumbled and sobbed my way to the house—a little girl again. “Silence is not always tact; and it is tact that is golden, not silence.” —^Samuel Butler.
