Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria College, Wellington, N.Z. Vol. 4, No. 8. July 16, 1941

Chapter XX

Chapter XX.

The door slammed. He had gone, but Viki knew he had taken her heart with him. But it wasn't so very valuable and she would probably be able to get it back some time. She would consult her friend Margaret Georgetaker again. She would probably find her in Salient room writing for Spike, for Margaret, like every other student, had the Welfare of the College at Heart.

A red glow came from beneath the door of Salient Room. The staff must be getting out the next Salient.

Viki saw everyone through Rose coloured spectacles. There was James Thinchested, Victoria's leading light through the encircling gloom (guess what colour) deep in what Viki considered a class-conscious Ethel M. Dell. And Bluebird [unclear: Dianeford] in front of the mirror experimenting with a new hairdo, while Learner and James Katzenjammer were poring over "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes."

What is behind this question? Was Viki's face red! Or if not, why not? What is the importance of being earnest? What happened to Partley at Extrav. Re-union? When will Father Divine find the lost plans for his new temple? And where's the money coming from? All will be revealed in our next issue—July 30th.
