Miss Tinder, diet itian at E. J.

SCAVENGER HUNT HELD SATUR DAY EVENING Perhaps you were startled in your room on Saturday night by a wild- looking pair who demanded a 19153 calendar, or perhaps you are wonder ing what happened to your little ne- / gro doll or your bowl of gold fish. The explanation for the unexpected requests and losses was the Scaven ger Hunt given by the I. R. S. on November 16. The hunters gathered in the basement of Louisa Wilson Bitting Building at 8:30 and were assigned to work in pairs. Poor Mary Worthy Spencer has been rub bing her head a great deal lately. No doubt it is sore since it supplied the “locks of red liair tied in a shoe string” demand on the Scavenger Hunt List. Maybe you saw the flash lights down on the Hockey field where the hunters were trying to find a toadstool (very few did). Finally Betty Gaither and Betsy Fearing, the lucky pair who %vero the first to get all of their strange requests in, re ceived the prizes — two boxes of Salem stationery. Although not all of those who attended won a prize, they had a great deal of fun trying. If you have missed anything, per haps you had better see someone who went on the Scavenger Hunt. Dr. W. N. Schwarze, Bethle hem, Penn., Speaker Dr. W. N. Schwarze, President of the Moravian Seminary, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania was the speaker at Thursday morning’s chapel. The subject of Dr. Schwarze’s talk was ‘ ‘ Wha,t is Worship ? ’ ’ We use the term worship loosely and do not realize exactly what is meant by it. W’e know, however, that is one thing that God requires of us. The word in the Old Testament means “to bow down,” and in the New Testament “to kiss the hand to,” both of which are oriental ges tures of reverence and awe. To strip the word of all technical ities, worship means “approaching God and seeking to enter into re lation with him.” Our Anglo- Saxon word “worship” comes from “worth” and indicates that we feel the true worth of God and are strengthened. Within us there are deeper sensi- (CONTINUED ON PAGE FOUR) STUDENT COUNCIL ENTERTAINS THE ADVISORY BOARD On Wednesday evening, the Stu dent Council entertained at dinner honoring the Advisory Board. The guests found their places by means of attractive, hand-painted cards, depicting scenes from various fairy stories, while from the books on the same subject scattered about the table as decoration, issued dolls dressed as Snow W'hite and Rose Red, Puss in Boots, Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Peter Pan, and many more. Gertrude Schwalbe, president of Student Government, presided, and kept her guests in sus pense as she read to them, “The Ogre Who Played Jack Shows.” Everyone tried his hand at an orig inal contest in whicli lo fairy story characters were to be unscrambled, and the lucky winner received a book of fairy stories. Enjoying this de lightful dinner were the lionor guests, Dean and Mrs. Vardell, Miss Riggan and Miss Covington, Ger trude Schwalbe, the hostess, and the (CONTINUED ON PAGE FOUR) YOUTH CONFEME IN WINSTON-SAIEM NOV. 29 TO DEC. 1 CALENDAR OF EVENTS Sunday, KTovember 24th 5:00 p. m.—Vesper service at the Home Church.

RESULTS OF WORLD FEL LOWSHIP DRIVE FOR PEACE GRATIFYING “The Influence of the Bible In Art” was the subject of an illustra ted lecture by Mrs. Meinung, mem ber of the Home Economics depart ment at Salem College, at expanded chapel Wednesday morning. Con tinuing a series of programs on the influence of the Bible in literature and art, Mrs. Meinung gave a brief history of early Renaissance art, and spoke about the Renaissance artists and their works, explaining the slide illustrations of famous pictures which were shown by Mr. Oerter. When painting was taken over by the church, the cathedrals and churches of that time were decorated by frescos and mosaics. Although extremely lovely because of their luminous colors, mosaics must de pend mainly on their coloring and possess little life-like beauty. There is a strong Byzantine influence shown in the frescos and t mosaics of the early Renaissiince. In the earlier Renaissance paint ings one finds traces of the Byzan tine influence, but the paintings are becoming more natural and life-like. Fra Angelica, one of the earlier Renaissance painters, did many pic- (CONTINUED ON PAGE FOUR) NATIONAL PEACE DEMONSTRATION STAGED Arnice Topp Reports On Recent Ballot Miss Arnice Topp reports the fol lowing results in the recent ballot held by the World Fellowship com mittee of the Y.

(By Associated Collegiate Press) New York — College students all over the country rallied last week to give the most impressive peace demonstration in American collegiate history. ' Gathered in groups ranging from one or two hundred to well into the thousands, the men and women who would be asked to bear the brunt of ' ‘ the next war ’ ’ reaffirmed their in tention to do everything within their power to prevent armed conflict be tween the nations, and to .stay out of it if they cannot prevent it. The demonstrations were quiet, free from violence or disturbance in most instances, although anti-paci fist groups did make their presence felt on some campuses. Pamphlets ridiculing the demonstrators for peace were distributed in some places, and counter-rallies were staged. Five hundred members of the Boston University R. O. T. C. at tended a mass meeting, on orders from their commanding officers, who stated, however, it was their inten tion to “show' that soldiers, too, seek peace.” HOCKEY SEASON IS IN FULL SWING Sophomores and Freshmen In The Lead Last Friday the seniors and the sophomores came together in a hard fought battle with the sophomores ending up as winners.
