I Letter To Ms. Goldstein
Dear Goldie:
I’m completely frustrated. I
can’t expand or develop my
chest to the size that I hope to
acquire. All the different types
of exercises that are recom
mended in every magazine
make me all the more confused.
Please, I beg of you, which ex
ercises would you recommend
that would build and expand
my chest? I have more con
fidence in you than anyone.
Don’t ignore my plea.
Nancy
Dear Frustrated-
To your plea I must answer:
do pusihups and breathe deeply
20 minutes every morning. If
that don’t work say “The heck
with it.” Charles Atlas you
don’t need to be.
Ms. Goldstein
Dear Ms. Goldstein:
Here’s a new word longer
than “antidisestablishmentar-
ianism” which most people
consider the longest word in
the English language. It’s “hy-
perpolysyllabicsesquipedalian-
ism,” but I don’t know its
meaning. Can you help me?
N.W.
Dear Writer’s Cramp,
The word has a good defini
tion you should keep in mind
the next time you write me. It
means “the excessive use of
long words.”
M.G.
I would like to thank all the
students for their letters, but
most missed the box in the
“Commons.”
Ms. Goldstein

Memo From
The Maker
Proverbs: 9:1-6, 9, 10.
Wisdom hath builded her own
house,
she hath hewn out seven pil
lars:
2) She hath killed her beasts;
she hath mingled her wine;
she hath also furnished her
table.
3) She hath set forth her
maidens: She crieth upon
the highest places of the
city,
4) Whoso is simple, let him
turn in hitiier, as for him
that wanteth understanding,
she saith to him,
5) Come, eat of the bread and
drink of the wine which I
have mingled.
6) Forsake the foolish, and live;
and go in the way of under
standing.
9) Give instruction to a wise
man and he will be yet
wiser; teach a just man and
he will increase learning.
10) The fear of the Lord is the
beginning of wisdom; and
the knowledge of the Holy
is understanding.
The fatted calf is slaughter
ed and the feast is set for you.
New Freshman. A host of new
staff, “with-it” counselors, and
a faculty committed to your
success, headed by a “tuned-
in” administration await to
serve your feast of knowledge.
So, sit down, take up the tools,
and Gorge Thyself, as we be
gin another festival of learning
at Wilkes Community College.

EDITED BT
BOB GRACELT
I shall not let what I say
obligate you to behave
differently
Than you might otherwise, by
the changing of the image
others have of you.
Nor, by the same token, shall I
behave affectedly because of
the images
You might prejudge me to
radiate.
I am me, you are you.
Nor will I listen to the things
others say about you to
change my image of you.
I ask you not to listen to others’
ideas about who or what,
they think me to be.
Rather, let us each, in our own
time, by the interaction of
souls.
Decide for ourselves the image
we shall have of each other.
And to seek the Divine
elements to be found in each
other.
While not being disillusioned,
nor disappointed by the baser
emotions of our natures.
the haze of the sun when it
sets, was it a time
I missed helping,
even a small child or a help
less animal?
I wish I real knew . . .
I wish?
Life ?
Do you . . . ?
Bob Gracdy
DO YOU
I have made a full circle in Ufe
and still I wonder if I haven’t
missed something.
Was it the new rising of the
sun, over deep green water,
WHY HAVE YOU COME?
So—say some
why have you
come
to this place
of higher learning
as I sit
and look
at the younger ones
I ask myself
why have they come
witii age
comes the yearn
to leam
with the young
it’s only fun
and so we sit
and we listen
and we write
and read
some of it
we keep
but most of it
is gone
before we leave.
