WHY WE STAND UP
"Oh, say can you see ___"
The football game is Saturday, and all the game thereafter Mac's head will start the movie to those words. Will all stand, not because we occasionally realize why we do it, but because the crowd does it. And while we stand we may be wonton dance. Just why are they phying that piece?
It is not a more formalism, this playing of the national anthem at public functions. As we stand up, we come neawear to getting a feeling of fellowship for everyone else than we do under any other circumstances. Given there in front of us is John Johns, whose father has millions of dollars. John has his hat off, and we can touch rest of us. And over to the old Olaf Iman, whose father battles with dry soils and hot wind; in order that Olaf may attend eagle, has his hat off. Also, to the left, stands a little Italian. We enlisted him a wip the other day; but now we notice that in his crest positive these is a challenge to anyone who takes for granted the blessings which he has only so lautely learned to know.
And the home of the brave."
1/4 O'er the land of the free
Mac's button falls. There is a monumentary hush and then the clatter of the crowd burst its forth.
But for a moment we have been in the presence of considerable bigger than any one of us. It is a mere collection of musical sounds which we have heard. That sir which we all felt within us was the combined hopes and fears and loves and hates of a hundred million people. It was the spirit which led the first American army to walk with bleeding feet along the frozen roads at Valley Forge, and which a century and a quarter later hundreds of thousands of clem American boys in the muddy, stinking, rain-and-coated-infected ditches of France. It was the love of society which helps us to work with our colleagues to the end that we may all become better. It ought to be no more formalism. It should be our more evolution to a more complete love of humanity.
YOU CAN'T
To get something for nothing in a popular idea among students as well among many older people who should know the futility of such a notion.
But it seems to be a natural law and one proved by mankind that nothing of worth may be had without payment in full for the value of the their desired.
Some students find it possible to attend college at dad's expense. They study a minimum amount, spending the largest part of their time on trivial pastimes. Apparently they have an easy life—they are getting something for nature. Nature has a law that parasitism leads to degeneracy. In the same way, four years of wanted time in college lead to homeless weakening of moral fiber.
THE BIG MAN IN COLLEGE
It's better to have been a big man in college than never to have been big at all. If the football captain or president of student council does not measure up to the general standards of success, the scaffer and cynic point to him as an example of what college does to a man.
He who is looking for trouble solves falls to find it. There are always exceptions to the rule and there is fault in every system. College does accomplish a purpose, whether it may
of "the" purpose or not. It teaches us of its students how to reason. It shows others the appreciation of the finer things of life. Many college graduates have come to the conclusion that college taught them to evaluate correctly. Others criticize the modern educational institution, saying it has increased their wants beyond their ability to pay for them, and has handicapped them by making them immaterial. And so on.
Activities in college are but a part of the experience which is developing character. Activities train men for leadership and executive ability after they have finished with college. They teach the student to do two things well. The backworm who never participates in athletics or campa afields will become one sided. Part of his nature will remain undeveloped unless he makes radical changes in his habits when he enters the business world.
Salary may not be a measure of success, but it generally indicates the goal of many young men and women. A questionnaire sent out by "The Open Road" magazine to men who have been "hit" in college showed that even the kind of activities to which a man devotes his time has something to do with the amount of money he will earn when he gets out of school. Class and student council presidents averaged $8,500, athletic managers, $5,000, treasurers and secretaries, $4,200, honor men in studies, $4,200,实习s of teams, $4,010, and colleges, $2,643.
When students are asked why they don't participate in campus activities, the answer usually is "I don't have time," or "I'll rather give more time to my studies." If the college man feels that he can't do two things well, studies of course come first, but statistics often show that the man gives nort of his time to activities and part to study usually makes good grades and gets the most out of the college course.
So comes the conclusion that whether or not the "big" man in college makes a startling success after he has been graduated, it's better to have been a "big" man in college than never to have been big at all.
Poetry From the Campus
The poetry in this column has been written and collected by members of Rhadamanthi.
ROOFS
Across the valley in between the hills
is a dense forest where the woods
Arrows the valley in between the hills
Ground painted spots amuse the naked tree.
A square of cost and, near, an emerald
Seamlet table) distinct route of blue;
Triangles) of dull, drab state
Seriously, discoverable nominal the gravy antus
cal kliu
A necktiebing hill-ton bonnet an orange colored curve
terrorized by a weather-breasted ball of
whiskers.
a palphiliforme of brown
to three of foam, moussein, green.
New shearles, still impaired.
Gewarmly under coating rays of sun.
Which intermittently are stolen.
By intrumbral cloud, that slinks nearness the sky.
an our own packets are we going to be satisfied with general "Homeity in Government," and "Ridic Economy," or will we look about for some really good jobs?
There has been a great deal of talk about the way in which the national political parties have thickened their platform propaganda with generalities as to avoid specific statements that are soomeone's feelings and lobe votes.
CAMPUS OPINION
It strikes me that the same criticism could be applied to our campus elections.
Why could not our student campaigns represent a contesting of real issues, instead of apyrical ones? Not in the form that would stand champaining.
We have done a lot of talking about the honor system, and an election would be a good way to really gudge it. I have told her about it. Perhaps at first we would have to run all of our pupils; the leader on the honor system ticket in another university recently emerged as an amused masc and two black eyes.
it would be consulting to know that even throught we might lose a few ood inches in nose, we could make up for it in backbone.      G, A, Y.
Anyway, aren't we interested enough in the little democracy that squats on the top of M. Ordea to stir up a little progressive activity?
People sometimes remark, with a "don't it Cute?" inflection, that elections are conducted in miniature here just as they are in a bigger way out there. The fact is that the experience is such good training for political participation later in life.
A beauty section is to be added to the Blue and Gold, the amount of the University of California.
Yes, they are, and it is.
But when we get the political nails
