WEDNESDAY, APRIL 20, 1932 SENIOR PESSIMISM Rainy weather comes as a relief to some students, especially a number of seniors, who feel that it is their own loss when they do not make the most of their opportunities while attending college. Ideal spring weather is no in ducement to study. And in a time such as the present when fighting between the two alternatives of staying in and getting his lessons or getting out and enjoying the beautiful weather, the senior is likely to choose the latter with the remark, "Oh, what's the use, I'm not going to be able to get a job anyhow, so why not enjoy myself while I can?" Rain makes it less desirable to forsake studies. The senior, who is totally at loss as to what he is going to do after graduation, is apt to take on a "who cares" attitude. He is likely to become pessimistic about the value of college education. He is likely to think he would have been better off if he had stayed home and worked in the corner grocery store. And he probably wrong, as he forgets that several clerks were laid off in the corner grocery back in 1930 and now Mr. and Mrs. Jones are running the store themselves. As long as we evaluate college education according to the money it will bring us after graduation, we are likely to view higher learning with skepticism; for the "boom" days of a few years ago are gone and soon will be forgotten. What if we will not be able to step into a good job as soon as we are graduated? Most of us are lucky enough to have a home at which to stay for awhile and a certain amount of hard times and worry is good for anyone. If we have taken our education seriously, we will in time be able to take our place in the world, and it is a positive fact we will be able to fill our niche more satisfactorily as a result of our education. So why give up and throw away the remaining few weeks of undergraduate study? Remember that the taxpayers are carrying a heavy burden to support the schools, before you despair and throw away your part of this sacrifice. So buckle down seniors. Take advantage of any such visitations as rainy weather to get yourself back to a normal frame of mind. Forget that there's no use in keeping up your work because you can see nothing in view. Get to work so you can do your share in the coming years toward making the world a more livable place. ALL HUMANS Recently a questionnaire was sent to advanced journalism students at the University of London. The information desired was stated as follows: "You are editor of a national daily newspaper (British, of course). The following events are reported to you. To which one would you give first place in your newspaper? Please mark events in order of preference." The list given was: The lst given was: 1. War between Brazil and Argentine. 2. Famous actress found murdered. 3. Financial collapse in Germany. Engagement of Prince of Wales. Abolition of League of Nations. Resignation of prime minister. 100 lives lost in British liner wreck. 300 lives lost in French minor disaster. Airborne医生 receives message from Mars. Out of such an imposing list of news stories 89 per cent of the students gave first place to the engagement of the Prince of Wales. If a similar list were prepared for American students with the articles transferred to an American setting and the return of the Lindbergh baby substituted for the Prince of Wales stories, it is more than probable that the Lindbergh baby would be voted the most important. Human nature is unchanging We are more interested in what happened to some one person, little personal idiosyncracies, tragedies, and human kindnesses or ingenuity, than we are in events of real world import. We note in the animal obstetric column that a dog was the mother to twenty puppies. A sow, being only out-done one, was the mother to nineteen young perkers. We suppose that the lowness of prices makes it necessary for the animals to go into large scale production. Tom Collins remarks that the successful newspaper man is the one who can hold a job. We wonder how he would classify the newspaper man that can't get a job. Thursday Noon Chicken and Dumplings 20c In the evening at dinner the menu will be excellent and Hot Biscuits will be served free as usual. There will be music also. The Cafeteria Nothing is good enough but the best OLD TIME FAITH It is a broadminded and commendable plan which the students of the Wesley Foundation are working out. The students of this denomination have planned a six-weeks series of visits to churches in order to acquaint themselves with other denominations. Even the Catholic church is in the series of religions which are to be studied. Ancestors would be hirrified at the thought of such a plan; for it would have been dangerous in the past to expose oneself to any religion other than that taught from infancy to the time of departure from the home. FIRST NATIONAL BANK The modern way and method is to study all forms of religious faith, then to let your mind determine which you shall follow rather than have parents dictate the faith. No other ships like these! You can have the best vacation ever, and not realize you're paying for it! It's simple our way. Just start depositing a small amount each week and by 1933 you'll have a generous sum on hand for an exciting vacation! We wonder why the city doesn't hire a few unemployed men to paint the new water tank. The cedar trees can't hide all of the rust. TOURIST IS HIGHEST CLASS Members of the Wesley Foundation are also studying their own religion. If each denomination would take a step like this, there would be less animosity, greater co-operation and better results. The misunderstanding between nations is often no greater than that between religions, yet we flounder along, unwilling to learn about others and understand them.
