SALEM SPEAKS TO THE
SENIOR
Graduating from college is like
having a birthday. You must sud
denly realize you are ‘ ‘ growing up. ’ ’
Not in the ordinary sense, of course,
of abandoning hair ribbons and
socks, but you are “growing up”
mentally, learning to depend upon
yourself, and beginning to adopt a
graver, more serious outlook on life.
In exchange for having to give up
certain childish things in this pain
ful process of “growing up,” you
have acquired many admirable
characteristics and qualities. You
have attained a degree of poise, an
ability to discriminate, and a sense
of appreciation for that vliich is
beautiful and good. Your mind has
grown more alert, more inquiring.
With such a plentiful bounty of
good things, it would seem that your
stock would be complete.
But hidden deep somewhere in the
lot of good things you have ac
quired during your college years, we
believe there has also grown up
within you a lasting love and de
votion for Salem College. Because
it is your college, it has been made
a part of you as you have made
yourself a part of it. We hope that
Salem will always have that little
part of you which makes you want
to come back again and makes us so
very glad to see you. It is a lovely
gift you have given us, that little
part of you. We guard that treasure
which is your friendship, with care
and affection. May we never lose it.

tendent of the High Point public

“larking” and eating to the sky.
He will talk about the stars and will

stellations. Latin Club, may the

TO THE CO-EDS
There are certain young men on
the Salem College Campus who merit
a great deal of credit. These boys
must be magicians—on look at the
“Hut” Saturday night would prove
that fact. The gym was transformed
from a brown, barren hut into a yel
low and white ball room. The co-eds
gave us one of the best parties of
the year, and we want to thank
them for it. Here’s to the co-eds.

proving with increasing age. It

MIRIAM STEVENSON
AND WINFIELD
HUNTER WED
Evening Watch was held Friday
night at 10:00 o’clock in the “Y
Room of Alice Clewell Building. A
light to illumine the painting of
Christ in the Temple, was presented
by the Freshmen Comission, so that
the girls may carry away with them
the memory of a softly-lighted room,
with the picture of Christ looking
down on the girls gathered there,
singing and worshiping Him. The
picture had been given to Bishop
Rondthaler by the “Y” many years
ago, and this year Dr. and Mrs.
Rondthaler presented it to the “Y,”
in memory of the Bishop.
Mrs. Rondthaler gave a short
guiding talk, and two songs that we
have recently learned at Evening
Watch, “Living For Jesus,” and
“Let the Beauty of Jesus be Seen
in Me,” were sung.

THE IRIS GARDEN
Have you been down to see the iris
gardens by the steps on the way to
lower campus? If you haven’t you
must hurry down and see them before
the iris are gone. I suggest that
you take your pajwr and pen down
to get inspiration to write a letter
to your love. There is a convenient
landing just above the garden where
you can sit to “take your pen in
hand. ’ ’ And if your love owes you
a letter or somethin’ you can just
go down and look at the lovely lav
ender and purple iris. I like the
yellow ones best myself, but I guess
that is because I haven’t ever seen
many yellow iris. The present jun
ior class gave this garden to Salem
in their Freshmen year. The au
thorities on iris tell me that iris get
prettier every year but I think that
these will have a hard time improv
ing over this year. And incidentally
if you are taking pictures (and lots
of people are this time of year), I
don’t know of a better background
for your smiling face.

ted to dramatize some story or poem
which has appealed to them. There
is also a chance for the learning and
enjoyment of good music.”
Miss Addams the founder of Hull
House died in Chicago, Tuesday
night after an operation on Satur
day. Funeral services will be held in
Hull House Court at 2:30 p. m.
Thursday. The body is to lie in state
in Bowen Hall at Hull House today
in order that the thousands who have
known and respected Miss Addams
may pay her tribute.
EXAMS
“Busies” stare at me from every
door as I walk down the halls of
the two dormitories and much to
my disgust I can’t even whistle
“It Won’t Be Long Now,” without
getting “sh-ed” up! I walk out
on lower campus, but lo and behold
two math majors shout for me to
be quiet, I go to the drug store and
find Biology, Chemistry, German,
English, History, etc., all over the
place; I go to the “P. O.” only to
get a letter saying study; I turn
on the radio only to hear a course in
“How To Study,” and then I go
to the library with books in hand
to begin. Oh, this life of Exams!
RENUNCIATION
This the three grey sisters planned
Spinning, cutting, always;
This was my heritage — nay
Even for this I prayed.
This price I paid for my songs.
Now have I ceased to struggle
To reach that small window high.
But search for light among the
depths
For that light still glows within my
soul
That I saw when first I pressed
My eager face aganst the glass.
Grown calm I see
That these shining turquoises,
(Each a perfect bead within itself),
Are naught —■
Save that the Cross there makes
them splendid.

HOW NOT TO UGHT A BRIDGE TABLE
Think of trying to play bridge by the light of two candles, stuck ini
bottle tops. ..Yet that is the e(iuivalent of the light in many homes
— a level of ilhunination that will make any party drag.
For gayer, livelier parties, use an indir^ i>ortable lamp. .Jt pro-'
vides the ideal light shadowless and glareless — for playing bridge
and other games in comfort . . . and an equally efficient light for
a c[uiet evening of reading.
Phone Southern Public Utilities Co. and ask for a free demonstration
of the new tjrpe di^ect^indirect lamp in your home.
