February 11, 1944. THE SALEMITE Page Three. FILTH COLUMN REPORTING: After truilging from one exam to the next we finally finished them and, joyfully, set ofE, black circles and all, for a glorious week-efnd. Margaret Riddle, Julia Garrett, Nancy Keimey, Jenny Jenkins, Betty Harris, and scads of others went to the health resort, Chapel Hill, to recuperate from exams and came back—well, just ask them how they felt! Most of the Juniors decided to get together for the week-end. Go ing to Eocky Mount with Molly 3oseman wer; Mary Frances Mc- Neely, Adele Chase, Mary Ellen 3yrd, Lib Gudger, Luanne Davis, Nell Denning, Ann Sauls, and Jo McLauchlin. They seemed to have had a “wild time” too from all re ports. All came back raving over a certain tall dark looie (Junior is their name for him) whom Mary Frances’ man brought over from Goldsboro. There was right much hair pullin at first over him, but Chase seems to have won out. At Jeast, she dated him last Friday night when he came up here. Luanne went out with his friend, another '‘fighting” air corps looie.” For further information about last Friday night refer to the other members of the Eocky Mount house- party. (They didn’t miss a trick from their perch in se'cond floor clewell windows.) Over in Kinston after exams, Trances Jones had as her guests Garrison and Kathleen, while Mary Tormy-Duval had Dodie to keep her company in hiteWville. We were all glad to see Joyce Wooten Ten- nille back on the campus last week. She is still the same old “happy Joyce’”. Barbara Humbert, Sis Shelton Boach, Joy Flanagan, and Iiucile Smoot were all supposed to have come up last week-end for a reunion, but Smoot was the only one that showed up. Duke certainly seems to be agreeing with her.— Also embarking homeward aft(?r exams were Mary Lil Campbell, who carried Snookie Willis, Pescud Hanes, and Light Joslin with her. They carried along their own males too .. . Manning and Stonie, Butch and Jean traveled down to Golds boro to attend Little Yelverton’s marriage to Captain Joe Pearson, just back from the fighting front. Mildred Lee and Mary Best were bridesmaids. Descending upon Wil son with Maria Hicks were Margue rite Worth and Betty Hennesse, •while Martha Boativright took pract ically the rest of the Freshman class to Reidsville. Seville went home -with Dee Little and gained six X>ounds. Beware of Dee’s liouse, you fat women! Some people won’t ever stay ,at school and study (????), for some even went flitting off last week-end —the lucky girls. Meredith Boaze fiwiy STANDARD BUILDING & LOAN ASSOCIATION 236 N.

Was she a good chap eron, Carol??? Mary Frances Mc- Neely toured over to Mooresville to see “Ice-cold Katy” Blanchnrd again before he reports to the' Navy this week. On campus last week-end there were a great number of dates am bling around. Julia Garrett’s Bret was he're with a good loking automo bile. Luanne and Gudger were seen with two little bell bottom trouser racm from Carolina. Molly Bosenjan, alias “Bowling Bessie,” hasn’t been able to go up and down steps with ease since she went bowling with her date the other night. That was a cute Ensign Elizabeth Ann Jones had this week-end, and Geachie and Mary Lewis’ looies came up again, but this time* they didn’t bring the rest of Fort Bragg with them. Who is the “Mae” from Chapel Hill that Patty Zimmerman dated last Saturday? A sharp blond, we might add. Sliding l^as started again and everyone is glad. The weather has been fine. Rosemond, did you enjoy the after effects of your first ride??? If you see alot of dressed-up girls on campus, you know that practice teaching has started. V. V. Garth al ready has a pet pupil that drew and gave a valentine Tuesday. Being engaged certainly agrees with Norma Bhoades. All she does is sit around and beam. Speaking of happy ' people—Kitty’s Bill is her and a handsome Lieutenant he is. Lois Wooten and Nan WyJttt will be representing Salem a Chapel Hill this week-end at the Naval Ball. Have a gay time girls, but don’t let uniforms go to your heads!!! Charlie seemed awfully happy the other morning. A letter—a long expecting one, was waiting at home —from Raj'^ no doubt. Martha Sherrod did you and Sam have a good time in Chapel Hill this past week-end? Gwen, is rip still the O. A. O. ? It must be a great like to see him whenever you decide you want to. Si>eaking of great things, Virginia Macmurry, met the seven o’clock plane Wednesday morning. Occasion? Bobby, with wings and commission! And congratulations to Betty Brletz Marshall, who graduated at the end of last semester. We can extend also our felicitations on Eogfier’s return from overseas! We’ll close for now until you go out and dig some more for us to smear across these pages.

Fries. Chapel Hill; University of North Carolina Press. 1944. $4.00. Illustrated. When the widow Catharina Ernst watched the little girls of Salem boarding school walk past her win dow on Salem Square during the early years of the nineteenth cen tury, she little dreamed that stud ents in the same school would be interested in her life nearly 150 years later. Catharina had watched the building of the school; she had, as a matter of fact, watched the building of the entire village of Sa lem, and had herself taken part in the building of the Moravian con gregations of Friedland, Bethania, and Bethabara which surrounded Salem. But she could have had no realization that notes she jotted down at the age of 77 on,“her jour ney through time” would have any special significance for the year 1944. These notes, however, have served as the basis of a thoroughly readable and enjoyable book about Catharina and the history of the Moravians in Wachovia. Miss Adelaide Fries, archivist for the Southern Province of the Moravian church, has trans lated the minute German script in which Catharina wrote in 1803, and, supplementing Catharina’s story with her own intimate knowledge of the growth of the Moravian settlements in North Carolina, she has woven the whole info ‘ ‘ The Eoad to Salem,” The book is fascinating not only for its portrait of a remarkable wo man, but also because it ties together the threads of history which make up the story of Salem and other Moravian communities. Any person Elizabeth Gudger New Spanish Club Secretary The Spanish Club met Monday night, Feb. 7, in the recreation room of Louisa Wilson Bitting, Building.

Catharina left her native Pennsyl vania as a bride, the wife of a hand some young doctor planning to serye the wilderness community of Beth abara. She lived to be 89, dying in Salem in the house she herself had helped plan over fifty years before. She had seen Salem grow from a map executed .by her second hus band, a surveyor, to a thriving vil lage; she had seen the struggle for independence and the Revolutionary Warj and as the wife of two pas tors, her third and fourth husbands, she had seen many changes in the customs of the church she served so faithfully. Of all of these things she vn-ites, and her story is filled with many human incidents which help her portray herself and the time in which she lived.

Cupid Does It Again Just peep in at the Valentine dis play this year and see the Salem students poring over the missives arranged there. For instanco there’s Anne McGee with a knowing grin at a card: ( “Eoses aro red violets are blue Cupid’s the devil and so are you.” Down at the bottom of all this, you can readily see to whom this really pertains. lOf course, now a lot of girls can take advantage of this being Leap Year as well as Valentine’s Day. If you can’t hol3 your man, send him a Valentine. Are you shy, timid, or not quite sure of him, now’s the time^ to pop the question by proxy. For the boys in the service all types of Valentines arrive in the camps all over the world—“Miss you, dear Valentine”; “Now is the time to ask you again for a picture —to scare away the mice”; or “To my Marine with my Valentine wish." Girls who are trying to find suitable ■car'ds can see the effect of the war upon the aged custom of Valentine’s Day. Military greetings are easily obtained for the fellows and gals in the service. If you’re hunting for a sentimental card—well, Ma and Pa are the lucky ones; comic or humorous cards are prevailing this year. Say( this idea of sending Valen tines to the hospital in Greensboro is a rare old treat. It’s not efvery day a girl gets a letter shining through the window of her P. O. box. Molly, for gosh sakes, leave us a couple of Valentines for broth ers and sisters, and sweethearts! Some girls have a lot of mail (male) fans and they can’t decide whether to send this Valentine, or that. That’s the case of Betty Jean Jones who pores over the display hoping to pick up at least one card for the two in Philly. Then again there’s the problt*m of just how much to commit one’s self before receiving his offering. Since Math is a popular subject hgre at Salem, a special card can be found in the bookstore. We advist? Mr. Curlee’s translation. Guess I’d better bring this to an end and run grab one of the remain ing cards. Those poor hopeful sen iors just won’t let a struggling fresh man get near, the place. So long and here’s hoping he sends you one* to suit the occasion. Don’t be like Prue—she bought one, but because she hasn’t received a letter recently, she decided not to send it. Ouch—I s(?e Cupid is already about his business! THE ROAD TO SALEM By Adelaide L.
