VOTING ■
In every form of democratic gov
ernment it is the privilege’and du
ty of every person to go to the
polls on election day and cast his
vote for his candidate. Our form
of government here at Louisburg Col
lege is a democratic form of govern--
ment, and every student should vote
in the election. If only a few are
eligible to vote, the student body
is not fully represented; nor is the
will of a few that of the majority.
In' the election fpr: student bcdy
officers^ only about ’^^If of the
students voted. Does this mean that
the other half is willing to let a
minority rulej Poes this mean that
the other half is either too lazy
or too uninterested to take_ part in
our election? If this is true it
c'ertalnly shows that we do not have
the proper spirit about our .elec
tions.
Why not train your minds now for
the' task you will be expected to^
perform later in life? Start now
to think in terms of a candidate's
eligibility for an office. Care
fully scrutinize his favorable qual
ities and balance these against his
Undeoirable ones, and then go to .
the polls and vote accordingly.
When you get a funny feeling
T^ere your heart's supposed to be,
Do you blame it on the snack you
ate' ■
About half-past three?
Do you get a strange wild' notion
When she oomes into the room.
That you wish the^ earth would
: swaliow you, ' :
And then, ‘complete your doom?
Then worst of all you cease to eat.
This verdict's very sad . .
It's not- Ju£3t a mild case of love
My lad,-'you've' got it bad,

That time of year has come again
iv;heh a "yourig man's fancy lightly
turns,to thoughts of love," One
might, add,“not only'a young man's".
Judging from the hurried, worried
way in which some of the courting
tjouples circle ’ the campus, they
are afraid they can't get enough
pacing done in the forty-five
minutes allowed them. It would
certainly be a fortunate thing for
them if the administration were to
suddenly.give back to them the
half-hour before supper, then may
be they would get enough pacing
done in one day.
