Friday, November 20, 1936. THE SALEMITE Page Three. PEPYS AT SALEM YWCA Y.W.C.A. Y NOTES The State convention of Student Volunteers will bo held Friday, No vember 20. in Greensboro with Dr. Egbert Smith as the keynote speak er. Salem will be represented by members of the Student Volunteer i •Committee of which Mary Hart is ■chairman. The Y. W. C. A. wishes to express es its appreciation for the interest and co-operation which was shown in regard to the International Pray er Week program of last week. The speaker for next Sunday eve ning’s vesper service will be Dr. John R. Cunningham who has come to Win ston-Salem only within recent months to serve as pastor of the first Presby terian Church. In the short time that he has been here Dr. Cunning ham has earned for himself an ad mirable reputation both as a speak er and as a man, and we are look ing forward to his talk with great anticipation. The freshman group for social ac- j tivities will entertain the new fac-1 ulty piembers at a tea Sunday after-1 noon between four and five o’clock at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Rond- thaler. Everyone on the campus is cordially invited to come. Germaine Gold was elected chair man of this freshman group. Preceding Miss Goulette’s talk to The World Fellowship Committee on Wednesday afternon, tea, consisting of Russian tea, delicious nut bread ; sandwiches, and mints, was served before an open fire in the basement of Louisa Bitting Building. Present-day student movements were outlined and traced in an ad dress Wednesday afternoon by Miss Helen Goulette of the city Y. W. C. A., to the World Fellowship Com mittee of the College Y. W. C. A. Largest of the student movements is the Y. W. O. A., M'as Goulette siiid, asserting that a change has come about in the typical student attitude during the last few years. Modern social philosophy, she said, is in creasing in importance and popular ity on the college campus and the student Y. W. has taken on “a new and vital form — greater freedom and flexibility in progress.” She listed the greatest force in student life today as the World Student Christian Federation. Other movements of great import ance include the National Interool- legiato Christian Council, the Y. W. 0. A., the Y. M. C. A., the Student Volunteer Movement, and the Ca nadian Student Christian Council. The American Student’s Union is to agreat extent a combination of other organizations, and it is in pur pose and organization more political and industrial than individual, Miss Gouletto stated. The American Youth Congress, another organization in cludes a great many individuals who are not students, slie said. The Stu dent “ Y ” is now formally affiliated with the Youth Congress. One of the oldest student move ments is the Student’s Volunteer or- organization. Miss Goulette asserted. This organization is “vital and alive ’ ’ and has gotten away from its ‘ ‘ idealistic but impossible ’ ’ slogan of “evangelizing the world in this gen eration,” according to the speaker who said she had personal contacts with the movement in 1932. It now works gradually as a missionary movement. The National Intercollegiate Chris tian Council embraces all the other movements formed at Heightstown three years ago, it has perfected or ganization and adopted at a recent meeting an extensive and comprehen sive program. Miss Goulette said. Arnice Topp, chairman of the com mittee introduced the speaker. Tarrytown, N. Y.—A parchment signed by Benjamin Franklin was found by faculty members of the Highland Manor School for Girla here. The parchment had been u.sed for “stuffing” in a barrel of dishes | bought by the school at an auction sale. 13th. Up betimes and after a hasty breakfast to play upon the organ in the cliapel where mighty sport to hear a damsel synge in a deepe bass voice like a man’s. But Lord how certaine of the Faculty did rave con cerning the expected visit of C. Mor ley this day! M. Atkinson did stoutly maintain that the quality of his wit exceedeth not the limit of her poore understanding, and C. Preston in a most arch and becoming manner did coax and cozen] the wenches lest they omit to see and heare so amiable and sprightly a courtier. And so to mus'que until noon, wearied with explaining to R. Siewers how to compose for the clar ionet. B. Dunford did exhibit an Ayro for the harpsicon composed after the modern French fashion. After a tolerable luncheon again to musique, which is now my great trade. N. McNeely did importune me to learn her to play a sprightly air from the new play at the Dukes playhou.se. At 5 of the clock to the office, newly furnished in the antick style to a meeting of the Board. To the Col lege, where a copious dinner of small fishes and green pea.s. Thence with anxiety to meet with the quire in fear lest I be late for C. Morley’s entertainment. But in sooth they did rehearse with admirable dili gence, and did give heede to the tyme which did exceeding rejoice my soul. Only J. Rondthaler did not attend she having been bidden to meet 0. Morley at the President’s great din ner of venison pasty, fatted calves, prawns, anchovies and Scottish pheasants, and a curious .salad of mixid fruits, much in vogue, so tra dition saith, among the students of Moravia. The practise being done my wife and I did make great haste to the playhouse, and Lord to see the great concourse of people come to gaze at C. Morley. When we did ar rive wo found ourselves unable to find places, both gallery and pit be ing filled to overflowing with an exceeding abundant throng and press of people. But there I did meet with A. Oerter, who hath done me sundry favors in past tymes, and he did go about to place chairs upon the stage, which was well-nigh filled. We did rejoice to see our.selves near to sun dry persons of great importance such as Mistress K. Rondthaler and Mis tress Pfohl, wife to the celebrated Doctor of Physick. And my wife did rejoice that I had wore my new coat with the double row of buttons down the front. Anon comes the President with C. Morley who did speak such monstrous clever non sense that it would doe a man’s heart goode to heare. And Lord to heare the aptne.ss with which the President did make reply to C. Mor- ley, sometime answering him in verso improvise. After he had finished I had great scorn to see the foolish wenches clamoring to have him sett his name in their bookes of his writ ings which hee hath published. (But I myselfe next day did go privily to my booksellers rtnd purchase two volumes in which he hath writ his name.) W. Blair, on seeing me, did invito us to come later to his house on Ludgate Hill, which wo did, and found there C. Morley, together with the President and his wife^ Mistress K. Rondthaler, and Jane, a coy and merry dam.sel, and C. Preston, whom I did suspect of writing down the many bravo quips which she did heare. Also Mistress E. Rico, a great and charming lady, whom all men doe delyght to honor. And Lord it would doe a man’s heart goodo to heare the merry jestes which W. Blair and C. Morloy and the President did in vent. C. Morley in particular did relate a scientifick phenomenon of an earthworme his thots on being newly swallowed and digested in the stomack of a robin red-breaat. All passing strange and of a most ex cellent delectable divertissement. W. Blair did quote sundry poems, one of which, being on thesubject of Con tentment, I am diligently resolved to emulate and practise. So home at a late hour, still laughing mightily. And so to bed, this being most strangely a Fryday and the thir teenth day of the month. ALPHA IOTA PI MEETS Miss Hixson Speaks Alphii Iota Pi met Tuesday eve ning in the Lat:n office with the president, E)loise Baynes, presiding over the business meeting.
