STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE NEWS LETTER Page Four ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA SORORITY — DELTA THETA CHAPTER Delta Theta Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alph Sorority get under way with its regular Sunday School Jan uary 15, 1956. Most of the pupils present were members of the Sunday School last year and were delighted to be re-united. After a brief intro duction and welcome, each child sang a song of his own choice. They were then told a story of “David The Shep herd Boy” and taught the words of the song “Jesus Loves Me”. The program next Sunday will in clude another Bible story, Bible ver ses, interpretations and singing. The Sunday School was hailed last year as a most successful project and a worthy contribution to the College community. Those present were; Lycurgus Mul- d r e w, William Muldrew, Michele Vaughan, Gail Smith, Jeannette Col lins. MISSION (Continued from Page 1) and stressed this line of reasoning; “Many facts of present day history point to the truth that our age is an age of revolution. The basis of this revolution is God’s will, which means that God’s judgment is at the root of the revolution. Man can be reconciled to God through Jesus Christ. Once man is reconciled to God, he must become the instrument of God’s recon ciliation.” In addition to worship services and the lectures, nther activities were “Firesides” (equivalent to our “Coffee Hour”); Area Forums, Vocation For ums, Bible Study Periods, Internation al Art Shows, International Music Festivals, Recreational Periods and Sacred Movies. In the Area Forums different places of the world were discussed as points of tension. The area forum which I attended was concerned with tension in South Africa. The moderator of this group brought in a fire exting uisher because he felt that this group would be set on fire, and on fire it was set. The vocation forum which I also attended dealt with working with students and young people. In the Music Festivals it was most entertain ing and inspiring to witness represent atives of v'arious nations rendering some type of their music of their country. Because of the fact that so many things were going on at the same time during tlie conference, it was impos sible for any one person to attend all of the conference affairs. Nevertheless, the conference was a very thrilhng ex-perience for me, and I do wish that some of our students could have been counted among the number of 3,500 degegates. SUPPORT THE MARCH OF DIMES NEW MEMBERS INSTALLED Recently the P. W. Moore Chapter of the Future Teachers of America held a service during which new mem bers were installed for the 1955-56 year. Officers of the F.T.A. orientated the new members in the meaning and purposes of the F.T.A. Dr. Johnson, adviser of the F.T.A., swore the new members in. The service was climaxed by the singing of the F.T.A. song led by Mr. Albert Horne. New members installed were as follows: —Spence GIVE TODAY It does not matter who you are Whether you’ve come from near or far In weather cold or weather hot. This awful infection can find a spot. Can you stand by While crippled little children cry? Let your dimes and dollars talk Help those little ones to walk! Send your gift along today, So little legs can run and play; So withered fingers ’11 not be cold, And little helpless hands again unfold. —Constance Taylor CHATS WITH THE DEAN We are fortunate indeed if life hands us a balanced portion of success and failure. Psychologists and educa tors discuss among themselves what the proper balance is. One ventures 50-50; another says two-thirds success and one-third failure; still another, four-fifths success and one-fifth fail ure. The facts are that no one knows just how much failure is required to keep us striving to be our best. Some times a very small percentage of fail ure in an all-important area almost overwhelms us. In our early college years we have one great factor in our favor: Time. We are still growing, and many fail ures can be mended as we grow on toward the years of fuller responsibil ity. From SO THIS IS COLLEGE by Landis, p. 48 HOW TO TAKE BLOOD TYPE In biology class, under the direction of Mrs. Helen Muldrow, I have learn ed how blood may be typed. To test blood two small bottles of serum, one B and one A, should be used. To begin the job, instrmnents should be sterlized and glass slides cleaned. Then a drop of serum A is put on one end of the slide, and a drop of serum B on the other. The end of the finger is cleaned with alcohol. It is then punctured to get blood, a drop of which is put in each drop of serum. The slide is placed under the micro scope to see if the blood wliich has been dropped into the serum has ag glutinates in A serum, the result is B type blood; if it agglutinates in B serum, it is A tyx^e. If it agglutinates in A and B, the blood type is AB. If it does not coagulate in either serum, the type is O. I found my type to be O. Anyone wishing to find out his type, may come to Mrs. Muldrow’s classroom in the Science Hall. —William Baum 58 STUDENTS MAKE DEAN’S LIST Fall quarter honor Ust recently re leased shows 14 freshmen, 6 sopho mores, 11 juniors and 27 seniors with scholastic averages of “B” and above.
