Volumes have been written con- cerning the stirring events of that famous year; of preparation for war. bat- tles, conservation, relief work and innumerable other activities. But as yet history has failed to record the one event that makes the year 1916 one of supreme interest to the Class of 1920. The only public announcement of this fact appeared in the Twin City Sentinel September 20, 1916: Salem College opened this morning with a total enrollment of over two hundred. There are seventy-five in the Freshman Class. This is the largest Fresh- man Class ever enrolled in the history of Salem College. Seventy-five! We can almost see the 1920 Freshmen turn up their noses in disdain, for they number one hundred and twenty- five ; but, how ever much succeeding classes may surpass the Class of 1916 in numbers, tliey can never surpass its boundless enthusiasm and class spirit. ' e made our first public appearance as the Class of ' 20 when we marched into chapel on the first morning of school — Freshmen unmistakable. from the big bows of ribbon on our heads to the open-mouthed awe with which we surveyed the stately Seniors, despairing of ever acquiring that weiglit of dignity and learning which they bore so calmly. When the excitement of arriving had passed away, we began to feel the pangs of homesickness, and. despite heroic efforts on our part, the Fresh- man dormitory was soon filled with the sound of weeping and wailing. Such a state of mind could not e.xist long in the Salem atmosphere at any time, and our recovery was hastened by the announcement of a get-together meeting. No better remedv for our drooping spirits could have been devised, for that meeting, with its speeches, songs, yells, and new acquaintances, gave us our first taste of real college life. At its close not one homesick Freshman could be found in the whole of Salem College. We were veiT fortunate in the election of Mary Hadley Connor as president of our class, and under her capable leadership we set forth to make the Class of ' 20 famous. We decided that the first step in this direction would be to win tiie Thanksgiving basket-liall games, and having once de- cided on the matter we immediately set to work to accomplish our purpose. While unsuspecting upper-classmen were only dreaming of that great occa- sion, we were practicing yells and songs, and carefully planning every detail •that would add to our triumph. We planned to present a spectacle which would surpass in brilliance and magnificence everything else on the field and would startle the eye of every beholder. It did. For surely Salem never 54 772©]22Qg 5tGH15 s JH51GH15 i witnessed such a sight as when we marched onto the field, waving pennants and lustily shouting our class song. Preceding us was something that at first glance appeared to be a solid mass of red and white, but which on closer view was recognized as the Freshman team, red-stockinged, red-bloomered, red- ribboned, and red-faced — a sight designed to strike terror into the heart of the bra est Sophomore. This was only a preparation for what was to follow, for our yelling was even louder than our colors. But die brilliant appearance and unparalleled playing of our team failed to intimidate the bad, bold Sophomores, and we were defeated. This unpleasant surprise somewhat dampened our enthusiasm, but we comforted ourselves witli the assurance that the Thanksgiving banquet still remained. Before that banquet was over we wondered why we had e er considered a mere basket-ball game of such prime importance. With our first introduction to Little Gym, we gave him our loval support and immediately began to plan some means of adding a substantial addition to his income. Finally, we decided upon a carnival as the best means of obtaining this sum and also giving expression to the great, though yet undeveloped, talent in our class. On this occasion the musical talent of our class made its debut in a Kazoo chorus. Under the skillful leadership of Nancy Lee Patterson, who performed on a popcorn popper, all the latest airs were rendered on tin pans, kettles, folding hat racks, cotTee pots and other original instruments. On a large stage on the back campus a minstrel, led by Elsie Scoggins, delighted the audience. For the sum of ten cents any number of thrills could be experienced in the crazy house, while the fat woman, fortune tellers, and refreshment booths offered amusement to the more timid ones. As the clock struck ten we formed a torch-light parade on the lower campus, and to the accompaniment of rattles, whistles, and tin horns, marched back to Main Building. The last great event of our Freshman year was the contest for the best singing of college songs. This was held on the hill and preceded by a camp supper which so inspired us that we sang as we had never sung before and were awarded the banner. Before we realized it. Commencement had come and our Freshman davs were over. The seventy-five timid, homesick little Freshmen who had come to Salem only nine months before were now seventy-five accomplished young ladies who on any occasion could write a model paragraph, hold an audience spellbound by numerous stories, discourse with the greatest intelligence on the fascinating subject of logarithms, and had abandoned forever the ob- noxious practice of chewing gum. 55 T72§m g =Z cs StGHISlwS BHIS Never in our whole career as a class have we felt our importance more than when we first realized that we were Sophomores. ' e were reduced in numher. but not in class spirit, and no Senior could have experienced a greater feeling of superiorit - than we whene er we met a weeping Freshman— a superiority rather increased by the vivid recollection of our own behavior on a similar occasion not so far distant. Fearing that the Freshmen would fail to show the proper degree of respect toward our superior Sophomoric dio-nity. we felt it our duty to impress it upon them in some unmistakable manner, Accordingl -. we issued the command that, on the following day, no Freshman should appear in the halls or on the campus without an umbrella. If any Sophomore met a Freshman not thus provisioned we would not be re- sponsible for the consequences. But we had reckoned without the Fresh- man—suffice it to say that this episode resulted far other than in the glory we had anticipated. This year the Thanksgiving games were postponed because of rain, and we were obliged to restrain our enthusiasm until the banquet. For once the pleasure of this feast was not marred by the presence of losers, and the speeches, songs and yells were marked Isy unusual pep. When the games were finally held, on the first of December, we lost to the Freshmen by only one point. So great was our delight at having the Seniors for our sister class that the Christmas holidays were almost upon us before we were able to devise a suitable manner to entertain our sisters. Then, just before Christmas, we invited the Seniors to a Christmas party in the lunch room. Here we found Santa Clans reigning in all his glory as he distributed presents to each one from a huge tree in the corner. Close upon the holidays came that period that we regard as the darkest of the college girl ' s life, examinations. Before the depression caused by that dread fuTiieriod had passed away, we received a surprise that banished all unpleasant thoughts from our minds. ' e. insignificant Sophomores, were invited by the Seniors to a dinner-dance ! From that moment we lived in a constant flutter of excitement until at last the time arrived and we found ourselves at a real banquet table, decorated in red, white and lihie, with Wash- ington ' s birthday favors, and an orchestra playing. Never before in the annals of Salem! we declared, had there been such a sister class. As the year was rapidlv drawing to a close and we had failed to give the school the benefit of our talent, we planned to remedy this omission on our part bv giving a country fair. In a day the long-suffering back campus was transformed into a fair ground overrun by a sweeping mob clad in bonnets. 56 ' 772 ©192 i I i ® calico dresses, straw hats, and overalls, each of whom seemed possessed with the one idea of eating more popcorn, drinking more pink lemonade, blowing more ear-piercing shrieks on her tin horn, and accumulating a greater number of red balloons and rubber balls than her neighbor. Our fair was un- doubtedly a success, and the play, given as a climax to the fair, revealed to the college the depths of histrionic ability that lay within our class. Liberty loans, war savings stamp drives, and Red Cross work occupied all our spare time during this year, . mong other sacrifices made to aitl in war work was the discontinuing of the publication of the It . the college magazine, and the donation of this amount to the war relief fund, li ' y nights were substituted. These were held every month in the college library, and here the Ivy was read to the school. In addition to this, other features were introduced and I ' v night became a regular Salem institution, which lasted until the close of the war. One fact about the Junior year that created quite a sensation, especially among the faculty, was the practice that suddenly sprang up among us of spending our vacant periods in the library, a pleasure that we had frequently denied ourselves in the past. At any hour of the day groups of studious Juniors might be seen scattered over the library, displaying no sign of interest in the outer world until some Senior appeared in fluttering robe. Upon this coveted possession every Junior would immediately fasten her eyes, and on that object they would remain until the Senior disappeared. The event of our Junior year was, of course, the Junior-Senior banquet. For three years, we had dreamed of this great occasion, but now that the time had really come we found ourselves unable to decide on any plans that would satisfy our ideals of what this occasion should be. The library we im- mediately dismissed as entirely too commonplace (our recent frequenting of that room had taken away its attraction as a place of enjoyment. ) Finally, some one timidly suggested the Zinzendorf. We were horror-stricken . Yet, so fascinating was the thought, tliat we could not resist talking it over, and as we discussed it, its fascination grew upon us until we ventured to suggest it to Dr. Rondthaler. To our overwhelming delight, he consented. So, for the first time in the history of Salem, the Junior- Senior banquet was held at the Zinzendorf. We never quite realized just how wonderful that banquet would be until we beheld the palm room of the Zinzendorf as it was that night. A huge rainbow extended from one corner of the taljle to another, ending in a pot of gold. Palms, flowers, music, new dresses and — the banquet ! Words fail me here, so I will leave the remainder to your memories. 57 = f 772 ©IgZOj g ' 5 GH15siH51BHW Two members of our class, Xaiicy Hankins. toastmi stress, and Dorothy (q) Harris, class president, especially distinguished themselves that night by their brilliant toasts. Under great difficulties we began to study for tlie final exams. For who knew at what moment our careful diagram of the physiology of the earth- worm would resolve itself into the second-floor plans of the . nne.x: while the mere sight of a black robe fluttering through the campus was sufficient to drive away everv trace of Shakespeare ' s villains and love-lorn heroines from our bemuddled brains. Finallv. that dreadful week drew to a close, and we found ourselves as- sembled in the Junior room, being prepared by the s mpathetic facult - for our first taste of Seniorhood, which awaited us just outside the door. Once we were enveloped in the coveted cap and gown we felt that the heights of earthly bliss had been attained. We were content to merely sit and admire ourselves or parade slowly through the halls for the benefit of envious lower-classmen. When we marched into lunch that day we became slightly acquainted with some of the discomforts of Seniorhood. For the unnatural angle at which our caps forced us to carry our heads prevented our thorough enjoyment of the meal. However, the splendor of our raiment repaid us fourfold for all such minor inconveniences. September 20, 1919. had arrived. Thirty Seniors, vainly endeavoring to assume an air of supreme indifference in keeping with the dignity of their apparel, lined up before :Memorial Hall. The first notes of -Standing at the Poital. sounded and thirty newly-made Seniors began their first procecsional. We were Seniors. We were in the Anne.x. Only one item was lacking, and when, on the night of Senior house-warming, the magic • ' 1920 flashed out over the Annex our happiness was complete. The fact that this sign was ready on time we regarded as a good omen. Borrowed caps and gowns might satisfy for one day. but with their re- turn to their respective owners we felt a sudden loss of self-respect which nothing less than the arrival of our own could restore. Of what importance is a capless and robeless Senior? Here, again, fortune favored us and our mental equilibriums once more received a severe shock when our caps and rolses arri ed only two weeks late instead of two months, as we had mourn fulh- predicted. U we had been told that our overworked mental equip- ment would be equal to another shock we would have unanimously denied an_ - -such possibility, but when it was announced that hat burning would be graced by the presence of the Rotarians we received that surprising news with re- markable calmness. Perhaps this calmness was due to the fact that we were 58 772%mO)g ' =Z ?5T V .  aaiGHia s IHSIEHIS unable to comprehend immediately the full significance of this announcement, and it did not burst upon us until we marched into the dining-room and beheld them. Men ! Any doubts concerning the reality of their appearance were soon dispelled when their songs, yells and speeches began. How we pitied the Rotarianless hat burnings of other classes! Immediately after dinner we laid aside our robes and caps for tall paper dunce caps, typical of our minds in previous years. On the basket-ball court on the back campus the court of King Folly reigned supreme until scattered by the blast of a horn. Then, amid silence, a long line of white figures wearing tali dunce caps appeared from the lower campus. As they came out of the shadows into the light of the torches they began the Seniors ' Marching Song. Nancy Hankins, president of the Senior Class, lit the huge bonfire into whose flames the Seniors joyfully threw their dunce caps. Immediately the Sophomores appeared with caps and robes with which they arrayed their sisters. At last, without doubt, we were Seniors. Thanksgiving was one long series of delightful surprises, from the arrival of the large basket of fruit sent by the Sophomores until the last bite of the banquet had disappeared. For a few minutes of breathless excite- ment we thought that at last our hopes were realized. But again we were doomed to disappointment, for the Juniors defeated us by one point only. Christmas with its excitement was over all too soon, and the terrors of e.xaminations were upon us before we realized it. Immediately upon these came an epidemic of the influenza, which resulted in a three weeks quaran- tine. Time dragged slowly during the quarantine, but now that this is over time is fairly flying. For we realize that now we are in the spring term of our last college year, with only eleven weeks of college life before us. Our Senior days that we had looked forward to so long are almost over, and as the time approaches when we must leave Salem we feel that we would be willing to be those same timid little Freshmen once more if by that we could recall the four happy years we have spent in Salem College. 772 %m T =J.

T.. 5tGH15 g W51GH15 Prophecy of 1920 WAS lazily turning over the pages of an old Salem Annual — an annual that dated back to 1920, the year we graduated, and which now seemed to me to belong among the books of the ancients. I couldn ' t keep from smiling as I gazed at each Senior, so stately, so serious, so solemn and so fully aware of that cap and gown. Some of our caps were slanted at rather an unstately angle and some of our heads were tilted as though listening for a distant call, but we were all there — the proud thirty-si. of us. When had I seen one of these books ! I was wondering whose it was, when the Dr. Victor Piccardi interrupted my pleasant musing to inquire whether the leetle mademoiselle was prepared for the great experiment. Yes, indeed, I am quite ready, I smilingly answered. I was taking a post-graduate nurses ' course in the Mamouth Hospital, when one morning in July, 1930, the renowned doctor. Dr. Piccardi, recently from France, appeared with what he considered the greatest invention of this age, the past age and the age to come. And I, myself, agree with him, if it produces the results that he and other eminent physicians expect it to and affirm that it will. It consists of a little round black pill-like object, com- posed of ingredients that when swallowed have much the same effect upon the mind as when under the influence of hypnotic power, and includes in its operation that mysterious process known as mental telepathy. Whosoever swallows this little black object, so Dr. Piccardi had explained, the person or persons whom he thinks about or is thinking about immediately before, will appear with their actions before him as a mental picture or in the form or a dream. Rather wonderful to think about, but far-fetched. Anyway, as a nurse in the hospital, I had offered my services for swallowing Dr. Piccardi ' s little black pill, and much to my chagrin and dismay I was accepted, and here before six famous scientists and physicians I was about to have the great invention tried out on me. It ees a great honor, mademoiselle, for you to be ze first one to e.xperi- ment ze joy which zis wonderful leetle object will produce. Yes, yes, I hastily answered. For, to tell the truth, I was beginning to feel rather queer at the thought of having my mind at the disposal of the doctors and to the effect of the little black pill, and was beginning to regret my rash offer. Hurriedly I inquired what I should concentrate upon, and he answered : S=- T72 ©i92(Jj g :== 51GH ' l5 a WS GH15 Let ze mind dwell on anything ze mind shall wish, mademoi So, with a brave air that I was far from feeling, I gazed around, took a long breath, swallowed once, twice, thrice and invention went sliding down mv throat and that was all I knew until I w-as calmly sitting in the great Metropolitan Theatre that had just been completed and was presenting its opening show. The house was ablaze with light and splendor, and was thronged with gorgeously dressed women and gay and chattering groups of boys and girls. I had come on the spur of the moment and was not even aware of what the program consisted. But one of our party turned to me with the remark that we were indeed in for a rare treat. I glanced down on my program and read the opening number ; Solace Miss Mae Tempe This meant nothing to me, for I had not kept up with the music celebrities of the day, and was indeed more interested in the crowds around me. Over in the box to the right, a short distance from me, there was an un- usually gay and hilarious crowd. There was one figure especially that kept attracting my attention — a lady — gorgeouslv dressed in blue. I was positive I had seen her before, but not having been in this coimtry for some time, I could not place or recall her face. Pointing her out to one of our party. I was informed that she was Mrs. Maxwell Van Landing. I was disappointed that she was no one I was familiar with. But just then another member of our party informed me that she was formerly a Miss Stover from ' ilming- ton. Of course, it was Mary Louise. And my informant went on to say that she had married young Maxwell, Jr., heir to his father ' s millions and was leading a very gay social life in the metropolis. I was preparing to learn more of Mary Louise, when every one began to applaud most enthusiastically, and all of a sudden music — such marvel- ous music — filled the air. I forgot everything except the wonder of that music, and then it ceased. Applause after applause followed, but the young artist refused to make a reappearance. I was aware of two people talking behind me. but was not conscious of what they were saying until I heard the name of Alimae Temple. Then, my interest being aroused. I listened closely and heard one say, So .Mimae assumed the name of Mae Tempe and made her first appearance on the stage. Could that be -Alimae Temple I just heard? Surely not! Not being able to restrain myself longer, I turned around to incjuire of that possibility. i ilGHlS g IHSgRliP Beg pardon, but was that . . . When, to my amazement, I looked into the eyes of Fez Stark. She stared at me and I stared at her. She, find- ing her voice first, exclaimed : For the goodness sake, is this a Salem Alumnre meeting? I ' ve never seen so many 1920 Salem girls in all my life! Then we asked and answered about sixty questions a minute, and I learned more news in the next hour than I had learned in the last five years. And sure enough that was Alimae Temple. Fez went on to say : Of course, you know tliat Nancy Hank — but do vou know who are the others on the program? I told her I had no idea, so she winked and said, just you wait. So, while waiting. I asked her all about herself and the rest of the Wilson girls. She, so she informed me, had married the principal of the Hi.gh School of Fayetteville, where she had been teaching, and that finally he was elected to the chair of mathematics in the University of Penn, where they had been living for the past six years. She went on to say that just as they had started to New York a very important faculty meeting was called and he was forced to remain. ' But. as all reservations had been made, she decided to come on, and he was to meet her the next day. She finished up by saying: You heard about Kate Thomas, didn ' t you? .1 shook my head in the negative and she had just started to explain when the music began to play, and four figures came tripping out — one in pale green, one in lavender, one in pink, and one in blue — and they certainly could trip the light fantastic toe. Such graceful turning, twisting, kicking, and pierotting I had never seen before. I was so fascinated I did not hear what Fez was saying over my shoulder until T heard her say : Don ' t know who they are. do vou? Never saw ' em before. I answered. Well, she returned, I don ' t suppose you ever heard of Nancy llanlvins. Ruby Teague, Gena Church or Dorothy Pfohl. did vou? You don ' t mean to say — I certainly do. she answered, without waiting for me to finish, and went on to explain that Ruby, Nancy, Gena and Dot decided to cease search- ing for knowledge and enter a new vocation. They had first gone into vaude- ville, and with the same zeal and diligence diat tliev had used in the matter of books they put forth in dancing, and it turned out that they were just as S= f 772 ©l92(n gV= f .A nimble and quick with their feet as they had been with their brains. And the 10 resuU was they attracted the attention of Mansfield and were bemg given a trvout to-night. From the looks of things, they are having some success, aren t they. ' ' You never can tell when the worm is going to turn, she added. I was not interested in the remainder of the program. My thouglits could not recover so rapidly from the surprise of the evening. In fact, I was not even aware that the concert was over until Fez tapped me on the arm, saying : Come and go to the hotel with me, and Fll tell you about the rest of the girls. So I went with her and had not more than settled comfortably ui a chair when she exclaimed : You ' ve surelv kept up with Mary Hadley? I haven ' t heard a word from or about Mary Hadley in about eight years. You see. I ' ve been absent from this country so long and so absorbed in mv work that I haven ' t had opportunity to keep up with anything. Well, continued Fez. you know Mary Hadley ' s father was a judge, and she had plenty of opportunity to obtain all kinds of knowdedge and information about law and governmental matters. She was awfully in- terested in that kind of work, and when her father had to go to Washmgton on business he took her with him. Some way or other, I never did get it exactlv straight, she had the chance to offer her advice concerning the solution of some legislative problem. The executive department followed her sug- gstion, which proved very successful. This impressed the President so that he offered her some government position which she accepted, and was gradu- ally appointed to higher offices until now that child is the President ' s very closest adviser and confidante, All I could do was to gasp for breath, and even before I could give an utterance to my thought Fez exclaimed : Oh, I never did finish about Kate Thomas ! You know how she could memorize. Well, one day some one jokingly said, ' Kate, you ought to give memorizing less6ns like that man in Winston did years ago. You would make a fortune! Sure enough, that girl went to work, traveled around the country giving ten lessons for $50.00. She also edited a little booklet called •Katrina ' s Katechism for Memorizing, ' and sold them to the public and made ' loads and loads of money. She says she is going to leave every penny of it to Helen Streett. You remember that was the Baltimore girl she was always so crazy about. I had a letter from Kate not so very long ago, and she said 64 m®m ?5T i mSJBHIS 8 IMHBinS after one of her lectures some one came up and called her by name, inquiring if she remembered her, And it turned out to be Bertha Moore, who was teaching the fourth grade there and had come to hear the lecture, thinking it might be helpful to her in her work. And in another town, I think is was Harrisonville, some one left a ' phone call, and when she called up it was Avis Basset, who wanted her to come around for lunch. She was in charge of a kindergarten of sixty children. Kate said she wanted to ' try out ' one of her memory tests on them, but Avis would not hear to it. Oh, yes, Kate said she, not long ago, got on the same train with Pearl Roberts, who is doing social reform work in Cincinnati. Miriam Spoon is teaching school, too, isn ' t she? I inquired. Miriam Spoon teaching school ! Well, I should say not ! Don ' t you remember how crazy she was about biology, chemistry and physics? She devoted years and years to investigating, experimenting and analyzing prob- lems dealing with these sciences. After absorbing all the knowledge these sciences offered she went off and obtained a Ph. D. degree. And when the third epidemic of influenza, otherwise known as the flu, swept over the country it was Miriam Spoon, or Dr. Spoon, who came to the rescue with an inocu- lation which proved to be a preventive of influenza. It created quite a sen- sation at the time, and she has since then received recognition of all the fore- most doctors. Imagine Miriam teaching! Maybe you wei e thinking of Vir- ginia Holmes. She is teaching psychology and branches of education at Lutherville College in Maryland, and Marjorie Hedrick is physical instructor and gym teacher in the same school. Virginia instructs the mind and Mar- jorie trains the body. Good team-work, eh ? Salem ought to be proud of some of her former pupils, oughn ' t she? I said. I should say so, Fez answered. It was there that Mildred Penning- ton had her first inspiration to take up a musical career. Don ' t you remember what a success her graduating recital was, especially that ' Hungarian Rhap- sodie, ' and just look at her now — not only playing, luit composing her own musical selections. And then, there ' s Mabel Williams, a perfect genius, and with a record to be proud of. Her short stories have been appearing in the best magazines and her latest book has run through its seventeenth edition, and is still popular. How do you manage to keep up with every one, Fez, I can ' t see. Where are Margaret Brawley and Gladys Sherrill ; still in Statesville? Do you mean to tell me that you never heard about that affair? 6S 772©l22Crj g ' :=: 5«HWaW51GH15 1 was beginning to be real ashamed of my ignorance concerning matters that seemed of such supreme importance now. But I had to confess my lack of knowledge, so Fez continued: Gladys was involved in a love affair which proved to be a very bitter disappointment. Her father, in order to make her forget, took her all over the world. Margaret Brawley went with them and while they were visiting some little island near Africa, they met two English missionaries, whom they married a month later. When Mr. Sherrill returned home he returned alone and left Margaret and Gladys behind— a great addition to the mission- ary circle. They say they all had to watch Gladys and remind her to talk slow, because all the little black natives use to make themselves a nuisance hanging around all day just for a chance to hear her talk! Just then a clock began to strike, and we counted in unison : One, two, three, four. My goodness, I must be going, I exclaimed. But Fez insisted it was too late for me to possibly reach my hotel, and there was no reason in the world why I should not stay on with her. So I remained, and in the interim of preparing to go to sleep and sleeping I learned one more piece of news, namely : That Nannie Loy Tucker and Ruby Davis had both gone off in 1921 to enter a nurses ' training school. Nannie Loy was now head nurse in a big hospital and Ruby was the wife of a doctor in the same institution. I was waiting to hear more, but the only sound that reached my ears was a gentle snore, and Fez, wearied with our lengthy conversation, peacefully slept. A few minutes later I kept her company, for I knew nothing more until I was rudely awakened with the suggestion riiat if I had any intentions of keeping my 1 1 :00 o ' clock engagement I had better hustle, and hustle I did So that twenty minutes later we were in the dining-room awaiting our coffee. Fez was more or less peeved because I had no news to impart in return for all that she had given. So it was with great relief that I heard her inquire : Are Dell and Lil3 still living on Spruce Street? Here at least was a subject I could discuss with a ray of intelligence. So, with a great- show of interest and energy, I reached in my inner coat pocket and pulled out a letter. Here ' s a letter I received from Dell from Paris, Fez, just before leaving and didn ' t have time to finish. She mentioned Lib Bynum and somebody else. She has been traveling ever since she graduated — been to Italy, France, China and Japan. In fact, there ' s not a spot on the globe she has not visited. She says she ' ll never be satisfied to come back and 66 772©l92 gV=Z settle on Spruce Street, but if she ever stops her wandering will pick Cuba for her future home. Let ' s see where I left ofT, yes, here it is: ' You can ' t imagine my surprise when I ran across old Lib Bynum last Saturday. It was at an informal gathering of French artists who were exhibiting a few of their recent pictures. Besides being shown these works of art and served with little cakes and tea, we were further treated with a vocal selection by a number of recent celebrities, who had made their debut in France. Well, when Lib came out, I just simply hollowed right out, ' Well, Lib Bynum. ' And if you could have seen the lifted eyebrows and the haughty stares you would wonder how I managed to still be in ex- istance, but I survived, and had a great long talk with Lib afterward. You know there is quite a colony of American people over here. Frances Rob- ertson and Elsie Scoggins have a darling little studio. Frances makes a specialty of women heads, which are quite in demand. The one she is paint- ing now, ' The Coquette, ' she thinks will excel all the others, and for all we know may hang beside Rosa Bonheur ' s famous paintings. Elsie Scoggins does designing and interior decorating, and the French people are crazy about her work. Dot Harris is teaching English in the Foche Imperial University, and spends every week-end with them. Katherine Rulfs was here visiting them last week, but she had an engagement with some high- class stock company to give an exhibition of Scottish and Irish gigs, so she had to hurry back to the U. S. But she says she is going to retire from the stage and come over here and live with them. Ruth Mills is here, too. Her husband (you know he is a doctor) had to come over for research work, so Ruth came with him. By the way, Dot Witt is making her permanent abode in this country. I haven ' t seen her myself, but some one else saw her and told me all about her. It seems she was over here with her sister and one day they came across a dilapidated old building with the sign ' Orphans ' Home. ' They were shown over it by their guide and good old Dot ' s sympathy was aroused for these crowds of poor little motherless and fatherless children (some of the older ones were orphans of the war in 1914-1918), so she offered to take charge, and was accepted. They say it does one ' s heart good to see Dot in the midst of these little waifs, each one lisping with aflfection ' Mama. ' I hear that ' — Just then our coffee and toast arrived, so I ceased reading to turn my attention to a more pleasing occupation. A few minutes later Fez, glancing down at her watch, exclaimed : It ' s ten minutes ' til eleven! StGHISsWSlGHIS With that we rushed out, told each other good-bye and parte d with the ;tanding that I was to have tea with her the next day to meet her id. had gone about a half block when Fez came rushing madly after me, ; and blowing, ust wanted to tell vou we would have tea to-morrow at Nannie ' Little Tea Shop. ' It ' s perfectly darling, and she has the best things to eat— especially chocolate lilanche mange— so be sure to come. A ain we said good-bye. I jumped in a taxi and arrived just in time to mee t my friend, Mrs. Borden, whose guest I was to be the followmg week. Well my dear, she exclaimed, I ' m so glad to see you. I especially wanted vou to come to-day, so as to see the great ' Aeroplane Show. It is a wonderful spectacle and one that attracts visitors from all over the world Before going, however, I want to stop in the book store and get a kodak and some writing paper. Do you mind? I was only too glad for the opportunity to look around in this book store It was ' so modern, so up-to-date, and so complete in every depart- ment While waiting, I wandered over to the music booth, and the very first thing mv eyes fell upon was a record, Just Awearyin ' tor ou, by Nancy Lee Patterson. Soprano. I immediately bought the record, although its price was ten dollars, and I had to borrow the money from Mrs. Borden. The clerk informed us that this was her latest piece, and they could not begin to fulfill the orders for records by Nancy Lee. Mrs. Borden was quite as excited as I over this discovery, and we still talked of what a queer coincidence it was. lust as we started out of the store, Mrs. Borden spied the chautauqua pro-ram for the following week, and nothing would do but that she should go over for a closer inspection. I followed and glanced over her shoulder. It seems a very interesting program, she commented. But I heard not a word. I was too busy trying to absorb the fact that Lucy Dix Estes ' was in big print before my very eyes. ■ Will vou please look here, Mrs. Borden, an old classmate of mine Lucy Dix Estes, ' lectiu-ing at the chautauqua next Friday on The Possibilities of the Human Mind. ' What do you know about that? Lucv Dix Estes, have you never heard of her work? She has l)een before the public eye for the last three years. And I read an article m the I 68 ■ i Vk S1GH15 s W5 GH ' i5 Outlook just the other day praising her wurk and placing her foremost among the lecturers of to-day. But come, we had better make haste and walk to the next block. I told Walker to have the car there. I dazedly followed. But before we reached the next block Mrs. Borden had to stop to see what was on at the moving pictures. The people were pouring out and there was a crowd waiting to go in. Must be something special, she murmured. She strolled over to the advertising board. I followed and there gazed back at me a big picture of Olive Wood. Oh, it ' s Olive Wood in ' Three Men and a Girl! ' She is just splendid. I ' ll have to find time for you to see that picture. she exclaimed, not even noticing my amazed and stunned condition. By the time I had recovered enough to e.xplain about Olive, it was time for the Aeroplane Show to begin. So we drove immediately over to the field and in a half hour I was viewing the most amazing spectacle I had ever had chance to witness. Aeroplanes of every description, size and shape stood row after row. .Aeroplane drivers and owners stood around in groups discussing the merits of the different machines ; one machine stood out noticeablv from the others. It was long, narrow, graceful-looking, painted black with blue and gold figures forming a border around its sides. It was surrounded by an eager admiring crowd, who pressed close, asking questions of its evident owner, who leaned lazily against the wheel. I grasped the arm of Mrs. Borden and together we drew near in order to have a better view. Let ' s ask whose machine it is, Mrs. Borden was saying. But as we advanced, much to our amazement, it was a girl leaning tiiere so nonchalantly. I glanced at her, I looked more closelv, and then I stared. The girl was Kathryn Renalds. I left Mrs. Borden, pushed mv way through the crowd and the next minute she was explaining everything. She had graduated at the United States Aeronautic School, and had been in government service until she had made enough money to purchase a machine of her own, which she herself had planned and designed. I might have known this was her own creation, even if she had not told me, or if I had not now seen the big K. Renalds in gilt letters in the corner of one side. Yes, she was saying, I ' m awfully enthusiastic over these new models. Later I hope to make a specialty of designing aeroplanes in the different color combinations for copy. Just as soon as this tour of ' .Aeroplane Shows ' is completed I ' m going over to see Rookh. She ' s spending the winter in south- 69 I SIBHISi I ■ ern Italy. I was over there last niontli, and they have a lovely old estate [0 overlooking Como Lake. You remember she married the oldest son of the United States minister to Italy. They ' ve asked me to come over and rest up after my present exertions. Then, too, they were thinking of buying an aeroplane and want to see this new model of mine. Come on and go up with me in about twenty minutes. I felt some one tugging at my arm. It appeared to be a great force pulling toward my left side. At first I thought it was Mrs. Borden trying to draw me away from Kathryn. or probably Kathryn attempting to drag me in her machine; but consciousness slowly returning, found me looking into the bright little eyes of Dr. Piccardi, who was vigorously shaking me widi all his strength. Awake, my mademoiselle, you did see much. Tell me, my mademoi- selle. It ees a work of success, eh, my mademoiselle? He rubbing his hands together, gesticulating, and talking all at the same time, was simply aglow with excitement and importance. But as for myself. I could only dazedly nod my head, not daring to speak, not daring to believe even that this was a mere creation of fancy or indeed even of reality, resulting from the effect of a little black object, otherwise known as Dr. Piccardi ' s great invention.

A. Lehman URING the great World War we here in the United States of America experienced none of the horrors which devas- tated France and Belgium. It is true that we are feeling its inevitable results in heavy taxes, in the high cost of living, in the curse of profiteering which seems to have attacked well-nigh all classes of people. It has also let loose a perfect carnival of crime, of disregard for the rights of others, which is appalling. It was different during, and after, the late Civil War between the North and South in many respects, and yet all wars let loose the worst passions of human nature. Not even Attila, the Hun of 1100, was as brutal as the modern Hun of 1914-1918. Our Civil War left us with devastated homes, ruin everywhere; not a single industry but dried blackberries and dried fruit — yet out of all its evils our God wrought out for us such prosperity as we never dreamed of. Of course, we had to pay $150 for a dress that few people now would wear; $100 for a pair of rough shoes with wooden bottoms. It was said you could go out shopping with a wheelbarrow load of money and bring your pur- chases back in your vest pocket. What it cost in time and worry and money to keep up our Salem Academy, the Principal and Wm. Fogle, the Steward, alone could have told. To keep a school fed, clothed and housed when filled to overflowing with many refugees, who sought this haven as a place of safety, was a hard propo- sition, but we never suffered nor were our doors ever closed for a single day. Sad things were all about us, but like rifts of sunshine, gleams of humor would at times flash out to thwart the darkened sky. Some places, near us, were plundered of every available article, but we were spared those experi- ences. The town authorities and other officials, with the President of the school, went out to meet General Palmer, in command of the only large body of Union soldiers that paid us a visit in April, 1865. The delegation was received and the desired protection granted by Gen- eral Palmer, who stationed a guard on our premises here when told what the school represented — the very flower of Southern aristocracy. The soldiers glBHIi a IHSIGHir ' m 772@m(r =d. marched through the town and encamped Ijeyond the creek until noon the next day, when they marched up Church Street, tlirough the graveyard and cemetery, when we lost sight of them as we watched them from the house- top of Main Building. The first ones dismounted and took ott tlieir hats as they passed through the graveyard, but onlv the first ones. During the night, however, came some of those bits of humor that we recall now, as well as some things that were not quite so pleasant. Every possible precaution had been taken. People from town brought many of their valuables to friends in the school to keep for them, considering the .Academy the safest place they knew. I, myself, carried on my person several heavy belts of gold coin, three gold watches and other treasures. Our side room shelves were loaded to the fullest capacity with goods of various kinds, kept for friends in town. Our two black carriage horses were taken into the basement wood cellar for safe keeping. As Mr. Fogle and one of the Union officers stood watch- ing the departure of the troops next day, Mr. Fogle recognized one of his work horses hitched to a gun carriage. He remarked it to the officer, who at once had the horse unhitched and restored to his former owner. As Mr. Fogle went past Main Hall during the memorable evening he saw that one of the sentinels standing guard on the front piazza was a mere lad, teeth chattering from cold, and also noticed that he was a brother Mason. He gave him coffee and food and persuaded him to go to his own room, lie down, go to sleep, while he (Mr. Fogle) took his place as sentry. About midnight an orderly came galloping up with a message for the sentinel, and could scarcely believe his eyes when he saw the state of affairs. He compelled Mr. Fogle to walk before him, while he, pistol in hand, followed into Mr. Fogle ' s bedroom. He jerked the lad out of the bed and said : Was there ever anything in the annals of history to equal this! A sentry asleep in an enemy ' s country, in an enemy ' s bed, and that enemy standing guard for him. I do not suppose there ever was a similar case, but Mr. Fogle was a man in a million, and Salem was, and will always be, unique in its way. Some happenings were not humorous, though. Some of the younger girls forgot Southern politeness — forgot what they might bring upon tliem- selves and the school, and insulted tlie sentinels who were guarding them. The President of the school being informed of it, called the whole student body into the chapel and told them what had happened, and also that if any- thing took place he would be unable to protect them; of course, nothing else happened. Vi SICHIS g IHSfGHIS A little later some of our girls would make a wide detour to avoid walk- ing under the Stars and Stripes which floated over the sidewalk. This also was noted, and thev soon learned that at times circumstances are too hard for us, and it is best to give in gracefully. The reconstruction times were harder than the real war-time experi- ences — the days when the Ku Klux Klan was evolved, and became such a power. It took thirteen years then to get into normal conditions. We began to live in a new world. So it will be again! The great Master of Life lets the evil passions of men rage until He says, It is enough. He then takes a hand and brings good out of awful evil, new conditions, new living — practi- callv a new world, purified and purged of its worst elements.

Haw-ee Haw-ee is the cutest member of our Senior Class. She keeps us all in peals of laughter from early morn till late at night. Then, too, she is always bubbling over with life, and causes even our most dignified mem- bers to smile; truly we could not get along without Haw-ee. ELLA ASTON LEBANON, VA. We are always so glad the school year is divided into two terms, especially we were overjoyed upon receiving Ella after Christ- mas. She entered right into our routine with all the enthusiasm of a Salem girl. We soon found her real self, too; in her attractive way she has made so many, many friends, and now we feel as though we had known her always. She is pretty, too, and the well-remembered slogan has application here : Pretty is as pretty does. MARY BOYD LYNCHBURG. VA. Mary is without a doubt the joIHest one in the entire class. There never was such a disposition. She enjoys the gift of generosity and the art of pleasing every one. Let us add, these two are by far the most valued qualities as noticed in the life of every schoolgirl. Why is it every girl must study? I know the world would be just as good without school- teachers, Mary has often been heard to say. We love her; yes, we do, and we could not find half the joy in life without her. We are forced to admire any one as happy-go-lucky as Mary. 191 !S U C h S ?§ ' d-mm M ' i) S 11 g3 El) S I F wmmw B § ? ' i MARY BRADHAM NEWEERN. N. C. Bradham is one of our most popular girls, not only among her own sex but the opposite also. Hardly a day passes that she does not get a dozen letters and most of them are male mail at that. Almost every week-end you find her in a stir getting ready for either a David- son or an Oak Ridge hop. But with all her good times she goes over the top in all her classes. am indepcndcnl, girls. BESSIE CHANDLER SOUTHERN PINES, N. C. Big Chief is Second Extension ' s Police- man ; when she says, Lights out ! the lights of their own accord go out, else we fear a dozen or more scalps will be added to Big Chief ' s belt. But beneath Big Chief ' s rigid surface a kinder heart is hard to find, - nd you mustn ' t mind when she gets in the dumps, for they don ' t last long, and after- ward, like . pril showers, the sun shines bright again. ELIZABETH COKER ATHENS, GA. Cocoanut Cocoa is an ojsis in a desert ; in other words, she is just different — and different people are always interesting. She has her own ideas, and they are original ones at that. She is a firm believer that American people have a free conscience. But, above all, she believes and practices the golden rule, thus she has made many friends while in our midst. 192 •fSlE hS bid ' (T-UOE? w= m mmE Tb h z = CATHERINE CRIST WINSTON-SALEM, N. C. We are very proud of Catherine. She is one member — and perhaps the only member — of our class who could rightly be called a walking dictionary. She has never been stumped to our knowledge. JULIA EDWARDS ROCKY MOUNT, N. C. At the beginning of his first term nearly 5,624,981,601 Indians — Creeks, Cherokees, Choctaws, Chickasaws, and others — were liv- ing in Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Tennessee, and were occupying about 3S.906,3 — Oh ! gracious, she has forgotten what comes next. She will be worried to death, because she knows she shall flunk. However, we know better, for Julia never leaves an exam without doing her best, which is to say reproducing the book. Julia sets an example in neatness in person and alcove to the whole Academy; especially marked is the contrast with the pig-pen next door, as the house girls would say. But we will leave Miss Anna to vouch for that. MERRIMAN FRIERSON MACON, GA. Sis-toy Everything ' s peaches down in Georgia surely applies to our Merriman. She is pure Dixie from the tips of her dainty toes to her crown of glory, and you ' ll believe it when you hear her Southern brogue. Georgia is the bes ' place in the worl ' , gurls, betrays her native heath. Always kind, with a smile for every one, she has proved a true friend to us all. Then, too, she is the prettiest girl in our class, statistics having proved it. So you see we have a right to be proud of — just Merriman. 193 !S D S h S . ' .MDa? H ' i] 2g H S rD S =M m mm e r h m ETHEL GAINES KNOXVILLE, TENX. Dear old Ethel with her Saturday Evening Posts!! What a good advertisement she would make for that time-honored magazine. During study hour we see her absorbed in its pages, and yet the next day on class we are astonished to hear her recitations. When did she learn her lessons? Would that we had the art of bluffing. However, there is one line in which she excels wherein there is no bluff, and that is art. In after years we expect to hear of Ethel as a great artist. MAE HAIRSTON DANVILLE, VA. Dear little Mae, the youngest member of our class. Smart? Well, we ' ll say she is! Mae hails from Ole Virginia, and a more loyal soul of that dear old state never breathed. Every one loves Mae ; loves her for her generous heart and unspoiled frankness. Who would dream that in her heart she desires Rights for women ? Well, she does, and we ' re proud of her ! JANET HILL NEWBERN. N. C. Jean — Songbird Girls, we simply must have quiet on this dormitory ! thus ' Jean makes an ideal monster (monitor). Songbird is a busy little body with a shining personality that lifts us higher just as her voice soars above ours. Some day we expect to hear Jean at the Metropolitan, then we will remember the many dull hours her sweet voice brightened. 194 Sg U E2 h Z 0 tr.TOaJ HfS S U g2 rD wm Warn Era H = MILDRED JACKSON CHATTANOOGA, TENN. Mimmi Some are born great, some become great, and some have greatness thrust upon them. The third phrase of this fits our Mimmi. A happier-go-luckier girl never hit Salem, and Fate was never kinder to any one. She en- joys life from break of day and (members of Second Extension must add) far into the night. But why should not she be happy? — any one that picks up Virgil and reads it as if it were the First Primer — may our blessing rest upon them ! Arma virumque cano. Trojae, qui primus ab oris. Charlie, Charlie, be my bride. ANNIE LOUISE JOHNSON KNOXVILLE. TENN. Toots — Mama Truly. Toots is a jewel to the Senior Class. Aside from being dainty, she has loads of pep, which is sure to break forth at the beginning of study hour much to our alarm. However, we are more astounded than ever when at the end of exam week we find that she has scored many goals. When she isn ' t tripping the light fantastic toe one may find her perched off somewhere with one of her eminent admirers. All in all she-eee do ver-r-ry well. ELSIE JONES NEWBERN, N. C. Els To begin with. Elsie is a good old sport. In fact she is Miss George Washington all over again. She has the faculty of getting away with everything she does. Perhaps she has hoodooed the faculty, or as a twentieth centurian would say completely vamped them. Bichloride of mercury! 195 H C h S . -mm n S U S h s m mnE r. e = XAXXIE KIGER WINSTON-SALEM, X. C. If the rest of the class would only stop talking and give Xannie a chance she might say something. So far she has only succeeded in listening to the others and looking wise. DOROTHY LUCKEXBACH WINSTOX-SALEM, K. C. Dorothy is our talented artist, and indeed she lives her part. She is one of our most enthusiastic members, and enters into every- thing with her whole soul and class spirit. MILDRED LYOX WINDSOR, N. C. Polly Mildred is loved and admired by every one. She is such a true, loyal friend to all. She has an angelic appearance, but she gets right devilish at times ' : that is. if a certain party is out of hearing and seeing, and in fact all six senses. 196 H SS h S ' d ' Mm U S H gS [I ' ' D F M mmErnH = CASSIE MARTIN WASHINGTON, N. C. Oh. me, I just know I won ' t pass on this examination! is what we always hear from our friend Cassie, who if ever she has failed on anything or made below 90 on it it has certainly been kept a profound secret. With her ability to do things and to do them right she will always come to the end of the Road of Success. Her most winning personality and generosity has won for her many true friends. Mischief comes her way often, nor does it pass her by always. But, nay, it stops, and Cassie — Oh, she ' ll come out on top! ELIZABETH McKIE CHAPEL HILL, N. C. ' ■McKie — Chapel Hill McKie or Chapel Hill is one of our most generous friends. Whenever she gets a box from home she is sure to share it with us all. She also possesses a keen sense of humor, which sometimes comes to. grief, especially on Virgil class. She has a fine trait which most of us lack, she can make coherent statements on class ; many thanks to that Professor Dad of hers!! Whenever she is not over in Memorial Hall practicing for the concert you may find her poring over Virgil and the grand fall of Troy; that is. if she is not upon Main Sophomore. LOIS NEAL MULLINS, S. C. Ted Lois is one of our meek, quiet girls, at least most of us think so, but I dare say that her roommate might tell a different tale. Lois came to us rather late in the year, but just the same she entered right in with the spirit of the class and is one of our chief assets. 197 r !S 1 ES B ' -ij S . ' amm B H hK w= wmwim B ' i ' k H = MARGARET NICHOLS WINDSOR, N. C. Peggy Pegg ' s private commissan. ' outside her alcove is a sore temptation to us less fortu- nate occupants of the dormitory, we are con- stantly tempted to break the eighth com- mandment. Peggy is a very quiet girl, but when she speaks something is said ; and through all her quietness we have learned to love her, and are glad to have her as a friend and classmate. REBA N ' ISSEN WINSTON-SALEM, N. C. Reba is a firm believer in the little saying. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, and believes a combination more satis- factorj- She always comes up smiling and in a jolly good humor. Sad to say. her merri- ment sometimes extends to the classroom, much to the discomfiture of every one con- cerned. ANNIE NORMAN HALIFAX. N. C. Ann When Annie first came into our midst we loved her and we have loved her ever since. Always kind and cheerful she has been a fine friend to have around, especially when we have the blues : but she will get the giggles on Virgil class. Having always possessed an unruflBed temperament, she has made many friends during her school year. hail from Halifax, girls. IS U C h S 196 m US h 1 [ wmmmEroH RACHEL XORTON MULLINS, S. C. Nig- Clear we are at all events it must be the silent ones that fit best for true room com- pany order (apologies to Carlyle). She, if any, will some day reach the promised land of privileges. When others plod along for the principle, she seems to grasp it without any trouble. This is al! due to her great ability and strong will-power. MARY PFOHL WINSTON-SALEM, N. C. Mary ' s chief ambition is to be a trained nurse, and the tender care with which she watches over her friends leads us to think she will succeed. Gifted with tact and originality, she has never found it in the least difficult to make friends. NORWOOD ROBSON MACON, GA. There is just one word to describe Nor and that is original. We never know what to expect from her next. She gave us one terrible shock this year when coming down- stairs we looked and beheld, not our old Nor- wood, but a new one with her hair shingled off Bolsheviki style. But alas! she just won ' t study ! If she was to study no doubt of it the Senior Class would have a star of which to be proud. 199 14 IP Wi mm E % H THEODOR. RODMAN WASHINGTON , K. C. Dody — Theo — Shimmy Theo. beyond any doubt, is the best mixer in our class and is loved by every one. And does she dance? Til say she does. When she is not tripping off to the drug store you may find her diligently pursuing Carlyle ' s Essay on Burns. May the Bluebird of Happiness follow our Theodora always. EVELYX SELLARS M. XTOX, N. C. Haffy Oh. Evelyn! where art thou? This ques- tion is often asked about EvelvTi. who is so quiet and reserved, so unlike most of her other classmates, that sometimes it ' s hard to tell her whereabouts. Nevertheless as this is such a novelty it is the more appreciated. Her nickname, Happy. is verv- apt. as she always appears to be without a care. DOROTHY SESSOMS WAYCROSS, G. . Dot Dot is one of our best old sports always ready for fun. whether it be to toast bread down in the furnace during day keeper ' s time or to work algebra. She does so adore to work algebra and to translate Latin ! Who would dare to argue against woman ' s suttr _ around our Dot ? She has a long lift : arguments that would knock a non-suffragist cold. So beware ! But the best thing yet is that she has beautj ' along with her brains, and has a host of friends. 200 !g H C S ' -ii S .

She is very capable and has filled some of our most important class offices. She has a keen sense of humor that makes her company desired. HENRI SINCLAIR WAYCROSS, GA.

Always full of pep she has enlivened many dull hours in class. If the people who have the brightest minds speak the fastest Alice ought to be a second Aristotle.

She has the happy faculty of paying attention in class. BLAN ' CHE STOCKTON ' WINSTON-SALEM. N. C. Blanche is one of the studious members of the class. It is good to have a few like her to make the rest of us try for higher marks, but we are afraid that ours would never equal hers. LAXIE HOLMES Did you say pep ? Well, here it is. Just a bundle of pep and energy, she is always ready for fun, no matter when or where. Lanie ' s favorite occupation is looking for Mary, and you will most always rtnd her with Mary, be it day or night. She ' s a good pal and friend, and has a great many friends throughout the Academy. 202 Is fSUChS . -mum IfilS HE hS F Wi mnm r h ELIZABETH STROUD CHAPEL HILL. N. C.

Turner Best all-round sums Mary up pretty well. .Although she carries one of the heaviest schedules in the Academy, she is always ready to boost the latest enterprise over the top in her unusually capable and practical manner.

She is as kind as the day is long, and though we be a million miles away from her, her spirit is with us still. She writes poetry as easily as she makes friends, and she proves this as our honorary class poet. May she make as much success in her future life as she has at Salem ! JULI. WHITEHURST NEWBERN, N. C. Just look who ' s here! Our Sniff. Julia has the most desired-for tact of going through life always unruffled and with never a frown. Kind and obliging plus a keen sense of humor, she has proved a good link in the chain of our class friendship. But alas! she will read dime novels, and every Sunday one may find her with The Mystery of the Yellow Room or Diamond Dick. But yet she has a clear mathematical brain, and is that not a blessed gift for every one to envy? OLIVE BELL WILLL ' iMS WINSTON-SALEM, N. C. O ' Belle is our professional vamp. She does not spend all her time thus, however, for when the notion strikes her she will study.

' -ww H ' 3 S U E h S Jl m mn e rn Senior Cla00 Poem Swiftly, oh, swiftly our school days have flown; Right well have we borne their speeding, For the future holds for us ideals alone That are well worth our heeding. The Old South Hall will know us no longer, The echo of our footsteps or laughter; Only in dreams will the memory grow stronger. And we ' ll wish we were back in the hereafter. Some of us we will see no more — For Time doth sadly sever ; But we ' ll never forget the labors we bore For this our Commencement together. Far away stretches our isle of dreams. Wherein Fortune and Fate He unmeasured. May we ever like Merlin follow the gleams That in school-day ideals we ' ve treasured. So always be fair, at home, school, and everywhere, And always ring true — in whatever you do; To keep the golden rule — abroad, at home, and school ; And always be sincere — to our homes so dear. So when the fires of our youth burn low. And our life has dimmed like a star. May our golden memories still brightly glow, And gladden other hearts from afar. For the end of sitting and dreaming — And thinking of my classmates every one — Is that our school days after all are worth their seeming, For by them the noblest ideals are won. M. V. 307 fe S H C h ' tf-Mw H S H S h F m mmE rn h History of Class of 1920 LL of the noted events of the world have been recorded in histories, so why should not the school days of this Class of 1920 be handed down for those to read who are interested in our high-school life? When first we were heard of, we were Freshmen in high school, wearing short dresses and pigtails. We did not do much our first year except to secure for ourselves the reputation of being the rowdiest class in the school. We did, however, by our united efforts raise a small sum which we gave to the gym fund. But this was so near the end of the tenn that we had to wait until the beginning of the next year before we could do more. We came back in the fall of 1917 somewhat changed from the youngsters who left the spring before. We looked down with scorn upon the incoming Freshets from the added dignity of Hofflin suits and discarded hair rib- bons. To exhibit our newly-acquired ability to work, we gave a sale of articles needful for comfort bags, the proceeds going to the g -m fund. After a joyous Christmas vacation we returned once more to work. The regular routine was pleasantly broken by an exciting basket-ball game early in the spring. It was not decreed by the Fates that we should win, but it was not so hard to lose, as we yielded to our sister class. To show that we were still loyal in spite of our defeat, we gave them a grand basket-ball banquet and a dance in the g m. This ushered in our second vacation. After three months of fun, we returned once again to our work. Alas for childhood days ! we were fast growing up, having added the impressive dignity of hair-nets and the much- longed-for coat suit. As we were now Jolly Juniors, we thought time to choose a motto, so we straightway consulted Bishop Rondthaler, who gave us .Alpha Kappa Epsilon — let us do our work joyfully. The outstanding social feature of our Junior year was our Junior- Senior dance. We enjoyed this as much as the Seniors and looked forward eagerly to the next year, when, maybe, we would be entertained in like manner. When we came back the next fall we were fully conscious of our Senior dignity. e, as Seniors, felt that we should take the lead, so w ' hen the 208 m Ife such S E -mm Hfg jg U S [[ D S ' M m m m b w h Endowment Fund Campaign was opened we felt that here was our opportu- nity. So an oyster supper was given and candy and sandwiches sold and the proceeds given to the endowment. One of the most important events of this year was the arrival of our class rings. Our motto was on these rings to be a constant reminder of our high-school days, and a motto worthy to be used through life, no matter where we happened to be. And now, at last, we have reached our goal — the goal which has been constantly before us during our four high-school years — Commencement ! The word commencement is rightly applied to the day when students receive their diplomas, because it means, to those of us who do not return to college, a real beginning of life ' s struggles! In the future, as well as in the past, may we remember our motto — Let us do our work joyfully — and live up to it, so that in the end we may say with Tiny Tim, God, bless every one. 209 Ifc !S H h -mm H S H [ili T. M Ir m mm e r h nth Grade Prophecy KCEXTLY my Bohemian friend, Norwood Robson. invited me to visit her in Greenwich ' illage, and. as the Hfe in mv httle home town was quite boring at the time, I Hterallv jumped at the chance. On arriving in Pennsyh-ania station. I found, much to dismay, that my funds were low. I remembered reading in an Ahmma? Record that Cassie Martin was cashier in a nearbv bank. I hastened over tiiere and the Fates were kind — for there stood Cassie ! After the necessary money had been obtained, I hailed a taxi which would earn, ' me to Norwood ' s unique dwelling. A woman chauffeur took my bags, and there was a familiar look about her. I regarded her closely, and behold ! It was Stroud ! You darlin ' , I cried, what does this mean? Stroud, looking very important, informed me that she and Sara Turner were tired of the old life and were now the owners of a complete jitnev line. My competent chauffeur guided the car towards my destination, but presently we came to a stop at the hand of a policeman, whom I recognized as Big Chief Bessie. At last she had come into her own ! As I drew up before one of the dwellings in this village of artists, Norwood rushed out to meet me. Whoopee ! I ' ve more news to tell you. I heard last week that Blanche Stockton sailed to Africa as a missionary; and, chil ' , Julie Edwards is mar- ried and calls her husband ' Bill ' ! X ' orwood gasped out between the embraces. I replied tinally that I knew some interesting bits of news also: Mary Turner, the second Barney Oldfield, has won the cup in California, and Julia Whitehurst owned some famous Carolina vineyards. We gossiped for a while, and finally the conservation drifted towards the inevitable — clothes ! I have absolutely nothing to wear, and will not move out of the house until I buy some things, I said emphatically. Norwood thought a few seconds and replied : I know a unique little shop where you are sure to be satisfied. Get on your hat and we ' ll go down there. 210 S 11 C h S 0 ' d-mw m hK ' E M mmE rn h Arriving before a little Parisian shop, I noticed Mme. Crist on the window. This place proved to be the property of Catherine Crist, who always said she would excel along such lines ! As the dainty models tripped out, I recognized Annie Norman and Reby Nissan, of old ' 20, who displayed these fairy clothes to the best ad- vantage. I made the necessary purchases and we took a street car which would carry us home. I was so intent in reading an advertisement of a concert to be given by Elizabeth Spaugh, the great violinist, and Alice Smith, her accompanist, that I did not notice where my steps were leading me. Bang! I came into contact with a huge woman who had a child by each hand. Pardon me, I gasped. Lands, if it ' s not Nannie Kiger! I had met another old classmate and my joy was unbounded. That night we had no definite plans and I suggested a play. There was a popular drama running at the Broadway. It was the work of Mazie Vernon. It had been judged by the famous critic Ethel Gaines. Seated in the theatre, I glanced over the program and discovered that Henri Sinclair was star and was ably supported by Olive Belle Williams and Ella Aston. What a wonderful curtain! some one behind me exclaimed. Yes, was the reply, Dorothy Luckenbach, the great artist, did it as a special favor to the theatre. After the performance, we visited a cabaret where a new dancer was bewitching the crowd. All was in a flurry of expectancy. The little dancer tripped out. Behold, it was Theodora Rodman! The next day ' s program decreed that we should visit Dr. Jones ' new hospital. On our way to this place our car was stopped by a suffrage parade. Dorothy Sessoms, our old debater, led the procession and across her shoulders was the flowing banner, We intend to have our rights ! Dr. Jones met us in the gleaming hallway, and behind him stood Louise Johnston, the head nurse. It ' s good to see you again, Bradham : how ' s every little thing at home? Elsie said in her old manner. I am very fortunate in having Mary Pfohl, the famous dietitian, in charge of our kitchens. What ' s that place across the street with all the windows? Norwood demanded. Anna Louise in her most dignified manner said, Our great rival, Eliza- beth Coker, has a sunshine sanitorium over there ! 211 £g H C h S ' i-m H ' l) S H S S iCi kSKS — i Ji The next place of interest we visited was Ellis Island. Rachel Norton and Lois Neal were in complete charge of the interpreting department. They informed us that Margaret Xicholls and Mildred Lyon were the ioint owners of a very select school. Our e.xtensive sight-seeing had exhausted us and we attended a vaude- ville. We arrived in the midst of a comedy act and beheld Lanie Holmes and Mildred Jackson delighting the audience with their antics. It brought back- memories of the famous second extension circuses that we were so famed for. Reading the Alumnas Record that night, I discovered interesting ac- counts of several of ' 20 ' s girls. Eleanor Schaffner had taken Miss Stipe ' s place and the faculty was considering itself important in having May Hairston as professor in chemistry. There was also an interesting write-up of Eliza- beth McKie ' s work among the slums of Chicago. Many days after, in my dead little town, I thought of my experiences and adventures of this trip. Memories of old Salem came trooping back in my mind — of the happy days that the Class of 20 spent together. !§ H C h 212 H ' D S 11 S El) m mmE r h Academy Will and Testament WE, the Senior Class of 1920, of Salem Academy, being of sound minds and sounder bodies, being about to pass out of this sphere of educa- tion, do hereby make this our Last Will and Testament, to be read on the 22nd of May, 1920.
