PURPOSE
The Junior College is no longer an experiment in
higher education. During the past decade its place
and function have become well defined. In that pe
riod the number of Junior Colleges in the United
States has increased from fewer than one hundred
to more than five hundred.
The Junior College saves thousands of students
to the broader fields of higher education, who with
out that aid would not survive the first two years
of college life. It offers a rounded education on the
two-year level to other thousands who do not care
for or need a four-year course in education.
Social Note
Several of the outstanding young
gentlemen of the freshmen class
were the guests of honor at an in
formal reception in room 108
Wright Building la?t Friday night.
Judges Ellis and Godfrey a.ssisted
by numerous members of the upper
class were hosts to the party. Black
and blue prediminated in the color
cheme. More parties are expected
as the season progresses.

SCHOOL SPIRIT
Three cheers for the team—Whoop’em up-
i»to it—Here- goes—One! two! three!
-Swap
Now we are off on another season, another year
of scholastic endeavor of all types of ex-currieular
work. Will we be just another junior college and
kave thanks at the close of the year that we were
lucky and broke even in the year’s work? To make
Louisburg GoUege what it ought to be there must
be more than average energy released, every talent
efcecuted by every member of the school. HoW can
this be done ?
Realize that when you left high-school you did
not suddenly put away the Rah! Rah! spirit and
neither did you bury your talent for the sake of
fear of college work. Try whooping it up at oyr
games, drop' your artificiality and be a child once
again anyway we are merely grown up in physique.
Never will school spirit fade so long as the school
is happy to possess patrons and a student body
that dislike the low standings. The support we give
our teams may «ften to you seem futile, but that
guard or half-back knows you are behind him. If
you don’t believe it, get within their inner circle,
then it comes out.
Split Louisburg for the team—
That’s it—make it sound—
The day was great for we rode through to victory.
LET’S KEEP THEM THE BEST IN
THE STATE
There is not a Junior College in the state whose
dormitories are as well equipped or in as good con
dition as those of our own Louisburg College. Ever
students new to our school must have remarket
upon the great amount of rersodeling and repairin{
which has just been completed. The desire to exce
and to have the best is instinctive in all of us
(Psychology students note.) We have the best. Let
our pride in our school check that carelessness
which results in marring the beauty of our schoc
whether it be in dormitories, class-rooms or oi
the campus. LOUISBURG SHALL BE THE BEST
No matter if from heaven abo>'e
She borrows every grace;
1^0 wife can hope for perfect lovo
Who trumps her partner’s ace.”
The young men of Louisburg
College held their first group meet-
ii:g for the introduction of the
students to one a iothvi;. After be-
’Pf- f»ntertaine-l by the “College
Colligians”, who piayed several
numbers. President A. D. Wilcox
-if.iivored an insoirinir talk on,
making this the best year in the
history of the school. If the spirit
sjhown by the boys is any indica
tion we feel sure that the Doctor’s
hopes will be realized.

SUPPORT THE LO’CO
With this issue of the Lo’Co, Louisburg College
is once more taking her place among the leading
junior colleges of the state. This is the first year
that such a step has been taken by the stduents of
this institution and its success or failure rest upon
the boys and girls who are enrolled. In order to
carry on this work, we must have the support of
all students, faculty members and the Administra
tion. It will be necessary for us to charge a small
fee for this publication because a town so small
as Louisburg does not afford enough advertising to
finance the project. We are therefore, asking all
the students to cooperate with us and pay the fee
that is to be charged for this publication.
In publishing this piaper we shall attempt to give
you the news of interest that is happening on the
campus, and in so doing we will need the aid of all
students, and all who are interested in such work
are asked to meet with the staff at a date that will
be a*nounced later.
This is the student’s paper and we want you to
aid us in the publishing of it, because no paper can
be a success unless it proves to be of interest to
the ones who read it.
TO EVERY LOUISBURG COLLEGE
MAN
Individual responsibility is the heart of the stu
dent government of our school. The present status
of self-government of our men’s student body did
not begin over night, but represents three years o'
growth and experience. Each year the students have
revealed • more and more interest and satisfactior
from this type of administration of the rules o.
compact student life.
Today Louisburg men are on the threshold oi
still greater success and growth in self-governmen
if their minds and interest will, and I am sure the>
will, ascribe to the principles of the Honor systen
and the Campus code.
These principles are:
1. Under the Honor System you are on youi
honor not to cheat, steal, or lie; and in case you sec
another student doing so, you are on your honor to
report him to the student council.
2. Under the Campus Code you are bound on
your responsibility as a gentleman to conduct your
self as such at all times; and insofar as possible to
see that your fellow students do likewise.
The student council, made up of a president and
four council members, cannot make a student gov
ernment a success. It takes the entire student body
to serve as an electorate for placing the best men
in office, and above all through its individual mem
bers to give full expression to the fundamental prin
ciples of student government as a Christian gentle
man.
The student council is not a group of police-men.
Their job is to aid you in upholding and enforci*g
the standard of conduct and to help keep alive a
wholesome student sentiment in regard to the gen
eral obligations of campus citizenship.
