One of the best-known girls on the campus is t'Venus. Her reputation as a tennis player, and as a leader at the dances, makes her much in de- mand. Venus is a great one for studying into the wee small hours of the morning -especially on French. EMMA SINK WINSTON-SALEM, N. C. When you see her in classes you do not wonder that her grades are high, but when you know her, you discover that her sweet seriousness hides fun and mischief, too. She is one of those rare individu- als to whom the word accommodating may be applfed. Nothing is ever too much trouble or too inconvenient for her to do. EMILY LEIGHTON TOBEY ATLANTA, GA, Tobey is an excellent example of Salem's type of girl. Peppy, clever and original, these qualities at all times enable her to have and to hold innumer- able friends, Her ability and simplicity are only exceeded by her honesty. LOUISE WATSON New ORLEANS, LA. Louise has three mighty fine characteristics that are not common in any girl-tact, personality, and popularity. She is cheerful, friendly and we feel sure that in time she will become ua perfect woman, nobly planned, to warn, to comfort, and command. 15 og KP ' .1 1 ' .0 QQ 0,1 YQ yx 0555.115 ga g N ' 110 G 'gg .

Personality, such as one seldom finds, combined with sweet disposition, cheery words, and a bright smile, speaks for itself. Such a one is Binna to all who know her-with many another merit added in. LAURA MOSELEY WINSTON-SALEM, N. C. Laura is at all times a good student, a sympa- thetic and understanding friend, and an all-round good sport. She puts pep' into basketball, soccer, or whatever game she is playing, and her team- mates always count on her, too. HELEN FRANCES MURRAY ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. One might well say that Murray was the Acad- emy language department. Her ability to master foreign languages, and kind-hearted personality make her one of twenty-seven's most worthy daugh- ters. MARY EMA NICHOLS ASHEVILLE, N. C. Never have we known a sweeter, more unselfish class-mate than Mary Ema, who, besides having these characteristics, which are the envy of all who know her, is a good student, a whole-hearted sport, and a loyal friend.

There we .L who had been used to the companionship and girls from our own community, met it jg girls from almost every school in the State. One of the most outstanding studies in our eighth grade curriculum was Civfcs, taught by Miss Taylor. How we looked forward to the hour when we should run across the Square to meet her and then come back and listen with open ears and mouths to her clear explanations of government! At Easter we gave the tenth grade, our sister class, an Easter egg hunt, to which each girl wore a childish costume. The tenth grade girls seemed to enjoy the egg hunt immensely and thrilled at being once more kids for an hour or so. At the beginning of our Sophomore year, we moved to the old Central school on the corner of Bank and Church Streets. Our second year courses were more complicated, but no less inter- esting. It was during this year that so many of our number dropped Latin, but those of us who had survived Latin 8 pursued somewhat painfully the marches and countermarches of old Caesar. Near the end of the term we gave the Seniors a theatre party and a dinner after it. During this year Miss Pfhol, our English teacher, organized a book club to which girls who had obtained an average of B were eligible, VVith two years of work completed, we were happy to enter in 1925, as juniors. Here we VVeaver as began the study everyone said was impossible to pass-Geometry, but with M155 teacher, who was so understanding and helpful, we were able to master the subject exceedingly hated very well. At Easter we lost our beloved secretary and Bible teacher, Mr. Heath VVe greatly to give him up, but it made us very happy to think that we were able to furnish the much loved Moravian College at Bethlehem a president. Later in the semester we lost our Spanish and French teacher, Mrs. VVenhold. VVe were grieved at her going, but we received in her stead Miss VVilson, whom we learned to love immed'ately. The social event of the year was the junior-Senior banquet, which was given at the Country Club in May. Everyone looked her best. VVho would have thought that the overworked Seniors could look so happy with a week of examinations staring them in the face, but each forgot her daily routine and entered into an evening of merry-making. The end of the year came, and we who had passed our work could hardly live quietly through the summer for thinking that we should be eleventh-graders, real Seniors, in the coming year. VVe returned to school and found a new principal and English teacher, Miss Eleanor Chase. Vile began work at once and Miss Chase immediately proved worthy of her honorable position, and taught in a month an astonishing amount of English. A very happy occasion took place on Thanksgiving when the day pupils were entertained by the boarders at a banquet in South Ilall. There were toasts, songs, and after dinner, stunts and dancing. The word Senfor has lost some of its air of dignity and has come to mean work to us, but we value what we have mastered, and wish that we might be allowed to travel again the road of our high school days. As we look back over our days we see four years which are perfect. VVe will ever honor Salem, for she has meant much to us and will remain written in our hearts forever. E.
