MARGABET HENNIS
Petite . . . golden-haired . . . chie

a first-draft sketch of Margaret
Ilennis, protege of third floor Clew-
ell. She keeps her shoes, as well as
her personality,
polished. I n
good - looking
tweeds, snappy
tailored suits,
and pastel
sweaters and
skirts, Margar
et carries on a
complex col
lege life. How
she perches on
top of those
spiked heels is the envy of even the
upperclassmen. She constantly
keeps that band-box appearance
with her good taste and neatness.
If you are a business student,
you know that Margaret is consci
entious about her work and a wiz
ard at bookkeeping. She shows her
enthusiasm by doing typing for the
Army Recruiting Office and by
serving on the society committee of
the Business Club.
If you live in Clewell, you have
probably joined the hilarious group
of girls in her room many times to
play records and dance. Margaret
loves dancing and keeps particularly
rumba and conga records playing
constantly.
If you make the smoking room or
Morris Service your hang-out, you
know that Margaret gives quite an
exhibition on the art of making
miniature smoke rings. Each *ring
seems to be chasing the others out.
Maybe she’s ambitious—she makes
them all just the size to fit her fin
gers.
If you are a sophomore, you know
that Margaret was one of the blond
freshmen who were brunettes for
the evening—but maybe you didn’t
realize that she liked the idea of
having black hair and actually
wanted to leave the carbon on.
If you live on third floor, you
know that it’s for George’s letter
that Margaret makes those special
trips to the mail box. Maybe that’s
why she jumps every time an air
plane goes over and reveres “lie
Wears a Pair of Silver Wings.” Da
vidson still holds its ground, though.
To get this Mt. Airy belle to bod
before lights-out is a major prob
lem; she invariably ends up wash
ing her faeei in the dark. Saturday
night is her specialty, she insists
on seeing the sun rise Sunday morn
ing. Margaret is afraid to take a
l)ath in the tub—she says she will
drown, so she always favors the
showter. If 10:3'0i were not fhe
dead-line, she would probably get
water-logged.
Margaret, whose trim little figure
is the envy of many, firmly refuses
candy (at times) with a “Nope!
Going on a dietl ” Then a little
It
a
KATHEINE FOKT
Anything written about Kath-
rin^ would of necessity have gentle
ness for its theme; for that is the
keynote of her character. She is
one of those really good people who
appear very in
frequently in
times such as
these. STie has
never seen any
one to whom
she would not
give help, and
everybody i s
her friend. By
this I don’t
mean that she
is a goody-
goody or one of the so-called mis
sionary group. Not at all. She has
her own ideas, and very definite
ones they are, too; but she has
never been known to condemn any
one for thinking as he wants to.
She would not say you are wrong;
but she would listen carefully to
all your arguments, and then try to
see wherein her ideas differ and
why. She wants always to question
and cross-examine anyone who
makes a positive statement; for she
is interested in everything, and
eager to learn from the people
around her and from the great
thinkers of the past.
But this isn’t the only side of
Kathrine’s nature. You have seen
her reddish brown, hair—and that
red is not there for nothing. She
hardly ever gets angry, but w'hen
she does sparks really fly from
those usually soft and friendly
eyes. Then it is all over, and the
gentle Kathrine is there once more
You hardly believe it happened at
all. (And speaking of Kathrine'"s
eyes, sneak up on her sometimes and
get a good look at them. They are
a clear, golden amber and very
beautiful).
Her interests run in all directions.
She not only does well in strictly
academic subjects; but she also
takes violin lessons, plays in the
orchestra, and sings in the Choral
Ensemble.
Kathrine is from Ealeigh, and
she loves the old home town. She
went to the University of Georgia
her freshman year, but she has
adopted S'alem for her real college
loyalty—and we’re proud to have
her as one of ua.
later: “Think I’ll start my diet to
morrow.” Her flexible diet is sup
plemented by sprees of vigorous ex
ercises. If she ever takes either
seriously, there isn’t going to be
any Margaret left.
Merline and Frances act as Mar
garet's special convoy, and these
Musketeers seem to live by the mot
to of their name-sakes: “One for
all, and all for one.”
Look Margaret up. We promise
you will be glad that you did.

MARTHA'S
MusiNes;
As I frantically look around for
food for the “cats,” I wonder just
how you girls manage to keep the
nevrs to yourselves so well. It just
aint’ legal. But those Ilattie Hall
inhabitants won’t escape this time
as they have in the past.
It seems that Strong is gonna’ be
fairly well vacated this week-end
what with Anne Sauls, Molly Bose-
man, Luanne Davis, Adele Chase,
Marie Griffin, Nancy Johnston,
Mary Ellen, and Bullock (better
known as “Bull”) Charlotte-bound
for a rip-roaring house-party and
the Davidson-W»ishington and Lee
football game. And we can’t for
get that I»ib Gudger is on the way to
State pledge dances, and Nona Lee
is homeward bound.
Carolina-bound this week-end are
Lib Griffin, Carolyn West, Normle,
Nlniocks( who is sponsoring the
danee) Joy, Kacky, Yelverton, and
Edith Shapiro. S'alem will be well-
represented.
Off to V. P. I. will be Mary Ald-
erson, June Brown and Phyllis Hill.
“Biddy” w'ill be a Kappa Sig
sponsor at State this week-end and
there are rumors that Butterfly
Best is also sponsoring.
Wooten (Joyce) turned down two
invitations to Carolina because she
couldn’t make up her mind three
weeks in/ advance. That is the new
regulation made by the dean where
Joyce is concerned. AND speaking
of the deans, we must say that
they have a very poor opinion of
Salemite’s appeal as was seen when
Miss Turlington informed Wooten
that she knew her date was sick to
death of her by Sunday night.
Ain’t that a kick in the ole teeth?
The Oinor-Gene plot is thicken
ing. The question is: Is it or ain’t
it love? All of which brings Lois
Wooten into the limelight. Her
blind-date turned into a midsummer
night’s dream for bqth of them.
Now, I didn’t say a word about the
graveyard.
Betty Moore is still hearing from
Davidson. Love at first sight is
a marvelous thing. And so was that
box of candy.
Mary Lewis seems to be forfeit
ing more than her share to this
war. Marvin is going overseas—if
he hasn’t already gone.
Mary Boylan and Carolyn West
returned from their extended week
end at West Point tired but happy.
Our southern belles were informed
that they were very refreshing with
their sweet innocence compared to
the bored, worldly attitude of the
northern girls.
We can’t overlook the fact that
Julia Garrett is wearing the sweet
heart pin of a boy she has dated
only twice. All we can say is—fast
work.
Bet Hancock has been pulling in
two and three telephone calls per
week from George. That’s what you
call cooperation with the Bell Tele
phone 'Co. or you could call it love.
Betty Gantham really pulled a
fast one at Davidson. More power
to you if you can get away with it!
Sgt. and Mrs| Jim Engram are
visiting relatives in Georgia.
Mary Lib has added another pic
ture of Bob to her collection. Ain’t
it disgusting? Must close and nurse
my eye awhile. These hockey
games are really rough.

In the United States there are
2500 JapaneseAmerican students
that are now being re-located in
colleges in the West ?oast area. The
WISSF is attempting to buy books,
lab equipment, and other class room
supplies foi* them.
And the Russians, like the Chin
ese, are courageously moving inland
to continue their education under
miserable hardships. Recently the
WSSF sent them American medical
books, which they had requested.
But the most active war work is
going on daily in Greece. The
problem there is limited to the bare
necessities of life at present: cloth
ing and food. Immediately after
the Germans allowed food, clothing,
medical supplies to the Greeks, the
WSSF bought sardines in Portugal,
powdered milk and bread in Switz
erland, and got them to the ten
thousand Athenian students at the
University there.
In order to aid the Greeks, Jap
anese and Russians, Salem College
is inauguating a plan Tuesday that
has three parts; (1) Donations by
faculty and students. In connection
with this plan, the collectors are
making a' map of the various North
Carolina towns; and when the girls
from a certain town donate at least
a dollar, the collectors will star the
city. (2) Entertainment of faculty
and students. This aspect of the
plan began Saturday night with an
informal dance sponsored by the
“Y.” Several of these will be
held throughout the year. (3) Star
vation Meals. At a starvation meal,
the students will not have one cer
tain dish, and the money saved, by
omitting that dish, will be turned
over to the “Y” World Student
Service Fund of Salem.

The skit is written in four parts
contrasting the present Salem girl
first with her mother, then with her
grandmother, then \vith her great
grandmother, and lastly with her
great, great grandmother. In the
first “act,” Alary Louise Rousseau
appears dressed in middy blouse,
bow ribbon and trimming, while
Jane Frazier leads a chorus made
up of daughters in singing a brief
song about mother’s school days.
In the second “act,” Ellen Hearn
is dressed as the grandmother in a
Gay 90'’s costume; the chorus' sings
another little song characterizing
school in the grandmother’s time.
In the third “act,” Julia Garrett is
dressed in an old-time riding habit;
the chorus of great-granddaughters
is dressed in modern riding clothes.
Nancy Ridenhower will lead this
group in the song. The costumes
for the last “act” are modern caps
and gowns for the five in the chorus,
and an old Moravian costume for
Patsy Patterson, who representa the
great, great grandmother.
