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. Men Have Mass Meeting Reporters George Womble, May Holliday, Margaret Lipscomb and May Bray The spiritual and moral standards of Louisburp College are the result of more than a century of Christian culture. We believe that a highly trained Circulation Manager possess the poise produced b; lola Lewis ^ religious interpretation of life and nature is mor dangerous than is ignorance to the peace and wel Faculty Adviser society. We, therefore, emphasize instruc- B. B. Bray the spiritual life and the moral consequences that flow from it. 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. AZE A MINUTE SCIENTIFACTS BY ARNOLD 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. ^ Plant Gas Attack/ The rare great Sacred Lily Lily op Af”ica recently DROVE A BOTANY CLA&& EXAMINIMG IT OUT OF THE LABORATORY BY EMITTING AN OVERPOWERING STENCH OF CARRION TO OECEIVB ATTRACT FLIES DURING POt.LI NATION. a AND UNDEQ WATER >- African Lung dsh must cor^ If kept UNDER WATER IT DROWNS AND DIES IN A HOURS ALF HIS WEIGHT IN HONEYj The AVERAGE tVEIOUT CAR RIED BY A BEE IN RETUBMNG TO THE HIVE IS E9UAL TO HALF THE WEKMT Of BODY.
