Three Balances Listed By Koelb
"Balances" was the topic presented by the Reverend Howard E. Koelb of the First Baptist Church to the pharmacy class at 11:30 Friday, in their weekly talks conducted by a guest speaker.
Balances seem to have vanished stated Reverend Koelb, and the pharmacy students should realize that the mood today should be "all out" now, to prevent "all being lost" later. It rests with the pharmacy students to use precise balances to exterminate possible dangers later. Those balances which are of greatest importance today are the following:
2. One between what you want to do and what others desire. Eliminate the private line of endeavor—which is the student in relation to
ers. This can be achieved best by realizing not what we desire most but what we want when we are at our peak of proficiency.
2. The second balance is freedom and responsibility. The universe today is divided because overemphasis has been placed on "rights." The owrid has not solved the problem of freedom and responsibility. If rights are overemphasized, we can, and will lose them.
3. Responsibility for and responsibility to distinguish between what we need and what others need of us. Responsibility "for can lead to dictatorship or destruction of the proper spirit.
The responsibility "for", becomes real and constructive through response to welfare, humanity and God. 4. We are a moral universe. For better or for worse we will never be the same again as we are now.
Life will not be best by employing these balances, but if we see ourselves weighed in the balance, life's problems will be worked out.

comes with helping your country. Bumper from old automobiles can be turned into ammunition. Anything of steel lying about the room could be used for some purpose. Do any students in the University have any gas ranges, tin cans, or metal pipes about your room?
Today in New York City and in other large cities, is Collection Day for all scrap metal. Each city and county must fill a certain quota if possible. Drives are being effected in every large city nearly every week. Many persons help by tossing in an old knife or old tools as the trucks go by.
Perhaps you are tired of your old, iron bed; or you have a bird cage those inhabitant has been drafted into the carrier service; perhaps an old trophy or a loving cup that no longer impresses guests and new-comers; all these can go to make a few more bullets for the guns of our soldiers.
During the drive, more than 15,000 theaters over the nation will hold a special matinee for which admission is 5 pounds of old rubber and steel. So if you want to see a free show, just pick up the kitchen sink and you can even take your girl.
One woman, inspired with patriotism, discovered an old handbag weighing ounces, the top part being
Make Plastics
★★★
Use Soybeans
Ames, Iowa, (ACP) — Four plastic products developed from farm products and farm wastes in laboratories of the engineering experiment station of Iowa State college, and showing definite commercial possibilities, have been announced by Dr. O R Sweeney, research professor of chemical engineering at the college.
In general, Dr Sweeney says these products could be substituted at a low cost for phenolic plastics in brown and black and possibly dark red colors. They compare favorably with the phenolic plastics in strength, appearance and water resistance.
The first is a soybean meal plastic which has excellent strength and may be molded by compression molding. Two are made from corncob resins. They have good strength and can be used in constant contact with water. The fourth is a hydrolyzed cornstalk plastic which has excellent strength, good appearance and good water resistance.
In the laboratory, the raw material costs for these plastics ranged from 3 to 6 cents per pound.
YWCA - YMCA Hold Fellowship Supper
The first Fellowship Supper of the YWCA and YMCA was served last evening at Henley house, under the leadership of Persis Snook, Jud Townley and Miss Beulah Morrison of the department of psychology who is president of the advisory board this year. This was the first of a series of suppers which will extend over a period of two months. They will be held at various places including Henley house and homes of members of the Advisory Board. Each time a group of 30 students, 15 women and 15 men, will be chosen from the YM and YW membership lists. Following the supper, the leader for the evening will outline the Y program for the year. This in turn will be followed by group singing and a period of playing various get-acquainted games.
Janie Lorimer, chairman of the committee for the fellowship suppers has chosen the following people as co-chairmen to act as leaders of these social affairs: Betty Learned, Jean Oyster, Virginia Stevenson, Ruth Kelly, Wendell Tompkins, Bill Chestnut, Ned Cushing, and Stan Krieder.
steel. She contributed this small amount, justifying herself with the thought that if all of the 2500 homes in her city would contribute 7 ounces of steel, the material collected would contain more than one-half ton of metal, which would make a lot of ammunition.
Under provisions of this program sector directors and sector captains will be appointed to see that the collection of salvage is continuous. The 12 women who are to head this group have just attended "salvage school" in Washington and will soon report for duty.
Much of the canvassing of towns and communities will be handled by women. The canvassing by the women is to be put into effect through a program proposed by the War Production Board.
Thus, all over the nation, the call is for scrap. Oh, by the way, any old or new German aircraft or tanks will be highly appreciated by the salvage committees!

This Sunday Protestant churches will observe world communion service. For five years the churches through the world have set aside the first Sunday in October for this occasion. Next to Easter Sunday, this observance brings more people to the churches than any other time. The home ministers of the students write to the students and urge that they participate in the communion. It is expected that even the countries under the Axis domination will join in the services. The missionary countries as Africa, India, and China behold the day with respect and reverence.
