HAVE YOU ANYTHING TO SAY.
The Guilfordian is a newspaper
but we fondly hope and believe that
it is mluch more than a rniere news
paper. Among its many other pur
poses its function as an expression
of student oipinion is by no means
the least important. As the official
organ of the student body it should
fearlessly reflect in its pages exactly
what the student body is thinking.
There are limits of course. If Susie
should shake Johnnie and take up
with Willie the student body may
think a great deal about it, but it
would hardly do to discuss the mat
ter here. The silly sloppy, slushy
sentimental boy and girl jokes which
disfigure the columns of some of our
lOtherwfise ,exlcellent contemporaries
have never found a place in our
pages. The reporter of the
for instance saw Algernon, elabor
ately dressed, proceeding in the di
rection of the girls' dormitory and
thus reported: "Wonder what Al
gie's doing with all those good
clothes on. Look where he is going
too. Good boy, Algie. Keep it up."
When we print anything like this
kindly take us to the top of King
Hall and gently push us off.
But with two hundred minds
working day and night around here,
many of them ought to find proper
and legitimate expression in these
pages. The Guilfordian can not be
a medium for personal attacks or the
knocking of chronic kickers,. But
well meant and constructive criti
cism is always worth while and as
this college has long ago passed the
boarding 'school stage such criticism
should be respectfully considered by
those in authority.
Come on then. Let us hear what
you have to say. Perhaps we can
remedy your difficulties. If the
weather doesn't suit you, write to
us. Did you get an E (not meaning
excellent) which you did not de
serve. Publicity will help you. Did
"she'' turn you down? Our "heart
throb" editor will pick you up. Did
you find Emmy Lou's teeth in the
oatmeal or Hennery Rail's eyeball
in the butter? Our influence with
the Department of Kitchen Mechan
ics is supreme.
Do you fail to understand the pro
found truths revealed at morning
collection? We may be able to ex
plain them if it is possible. Have
you lost your heart? Our lost and
found department can not 'be equal
ed. Do you think we are liars? We
will publish what you say but please
don't use that word.
Seriously, however, when we con
sider the vast number of opinions
which are privately expressed around
here, it would be a pity if some of
them could not be expressed public
ly. Let us give you the opportunity.
All-we ask is that you have some
thing to say worth saying and that
you do not lay too violent hands on
the English language.
PROF. PARTINGTON
LEADS Y. M. C. A.
On last Thursday evening Prof.
Partington conducted the service at
Y. M. C. A. The subject of his dis
course was, "The Measure of a Man."
He discussed his subject from the
physical, intellectual, and spiritual
standpoint. The speaker said that
if we can be called a MAN, we are
successful. The philosophers and
men of great mental capacity have
done much in the world, but it takes
more than physical power and intel
lectual endowment to make a well
rounded man. One must have the
spiritual to make liis life mean most
to himself and those about him.
If a man would be successful he
must know how to get along with
others. He cannot live alone. His
way of living affects others in a way
that is either a help or hindrance. If
one is skillful in living with men, it
is a test of perfect manhood. The
speaker said that what one does for
his tfelloiwmen must be done in a
spirit of love. This spirit of love
determines the measure of a man.
Prof. Partington ended his talk by
saying, "Be a man maker and a man
mender."
