HP Page Six THE SALE MITE February 20. tQs Kuss Sees (Continued from page five) them all over the place and fright ens little mice like me to death! We could cut off these hands on observing this and if the next time he waved the digitless stumps we could do away with them also. There is also the type who reads his speech from beginning to end without ever lifting his face from the papyrus. He would do very well without his organs of sight and so a slight operation might cure him. There is the type who con tinually refers to the fact that “When he was a boy—thus and so—”. Why not eliminate this trite expression by simply elimi nating his childhood ? Then there is the species who apologizes for three quarters of an hour for being a “stand-in.” He never does get to his lecture. Am putation of his legs would make it impossible for this type to ever “stand-in” again. Dr. ©ramley s 'Words Of Wisdom Reprinted For The Benefit Of Forgetful Salemites Larkins Tells 4 Year Plan (Continued from page three) morning, she never can get the drawer open. When I left Jane and Anne, they had not budged from their beds, but their books had fallen to the floor and they were almost asleep. The new sweetheart of Salem College, Dr. Gramley, not only fills the prerequisites of a sweetheart, but also he has other abilities. Salem girls hear his “words of wisdom” and try not to forget them. For those of us with some what forgetful minds there are re printed below parts of his most outstanding talks: Have high standards of personal conduct and live up to them. Others may sometimes “kid” you a bit, but they will secretly and sincerely admire you. Write to your parents regularly, remembering that they too await eagerly each day’s mail. Thou Shalt Strive Thou shalt strive for but not covet academic honors, nor the prettiest clothes, nor the hand somest boyfried, nor to be ac quainted merely with a long list of titles of unread books in the library. Blessed is the student who real izes that she is a part of student government, even though she holds no office. We urge also designation of the campus as a bird sanctuary and we extend our protection to the squirrels. But we deplore the I visitation or the harboring of dogs and cats for many reasons, most of these being obvious. We advocate maintenance of an adequate and safe highway system and promise to do everything in our power to keep the roads free of toll stations between Salem and such places as Chapel Hill, Dur ham, Davidson, Raleigh and Wake Forest. We Favor We favor the right (of any stu dent) to quit or transfer elsewhere if the pace is too demanding and your abilities and interests too re stricted. You can be a thermometer and slide up and down the scale, follow'ing the pattern of envy and strife the newspapers mirror . . . Or you can be a thermostat dis tinguishing between cold and hot, right and wrong. Towmspeople say they can iden tify Salem girls; schoolmen tell me they compete for Salem-trained teachers; and young men of vary ing size and appearance vie for their hearts and hands. College Girl Defined A college girl is Truth with polish on its fingernails. Beauty adulterated only by blue jeans. Wisdom with a scarf around its head, and Hope-for-the-future once a fraternity pin appears. Salem believes that the clock on Home Church and the passageway between that ediface and Main Hall symbolize its belief in edu cation founded on faith in God. Salem is ... a place, an atmos phere and a tradition. Test Your Conduct Ask yourself, when you do some thing you know is wrong, what kind of campus'"or community yours would be if everyone there, including the faculty and staff, did the same thing. A liberal education should not be regarded as an^ embroidery upon life but as a revelation of life itself. i We urge that ' students and i faculty exercise sufficient good ^ judgment over week-ends and va- i cation periods that they do not : return to the campus over-tired, over-nervous or overcome. (Continued from page tKree) the I. R. S., you will also have tj make your bed every niornisj What could be worse? Or your roommate could be the Stee Gee and you couldn’t havl your night cap and late dates. Or she could be president of th A. A., and the room always full d blazers, balls and bats. This cou| go on and on. Never room win the head of any organization on campus. And of course, never room win someone who likes to cook shrini| in the room; or someone who iilm your boy friend; or someone whi ! is smarter than you are (or you| I feel inferior) ; or someone who is I dumber than you are (and can'i Autor you!). I Who do you room with? Lool; in the mirror—you’ll find a peifeti roommate. Jobs Are Available Announcements concerning sum mer employment for students are , posted on the bulletin board in Main Hall. Dr. Hixon has a list ; of addresses of camps and other places of business employing sum mer workers in her office. Students interested in securing summer jobs should consult the academic office for further infor mation.
