EDITORIAL.
KNOCKERS vs. BOOSTERS.
In every college we find fwt
classes of students who have ai
entirely different attitude towar
all college activities and organiza
lions. These are the knockers am
the boosters.
The knockers are I hose whos
sole purpose is to find fault. Tlica
have no definite aim in view am
never offer a better solution for ;
problem but can always point on
the mistakes made by others
They do it not with the idea o
doing any real harm, but it is jus
their habitual method of expres
sion and is usually caused by 
bad temper or by poor digestion.
Opposed to the knockers are tin
boosters. They have a good wort
for everybody and everything
Their business is to help and mor
is accomplished by their smile am
contagious enthusiasm than b;
twice the amount of criticism.
The last named class are thos
most to be desired in college, fo
with only a few such students in
1 crested in the college they wil
make the various organization!
successful. Such students beeonn
the leaders in college, are the lif'
of all student activities, and an
much more appreciated than flu
knockers.
Moral: If von want fo be j
lelper and he appreciated by your
associates, follow the advice of
the near poet who said :
'Boost and the world boosts with
you.
Knock and you are on the shelf.
For the world gets sick of tin* one
who'll kick.
And wishes he'd kicked himself,
'•Boost, for your own achieve
nients,
Boost for the things sublime.
For (lie one who is found on the
topmost rung,
Is the booster, every time."
Y. W. C. A. NOTES.
This week the prayer meeting
service was short and impressive.
As her subject Miss Edwards
chose The Abiding Love of Christ.
To illustrate what makes our lives
beautiful and unselfish she told
the story of Vera. This poem of
Van 1 >yke's tells how a little deaf
;iikl dumb girl marvelled :il the
strange effect of sounds, which sb"
did not understand, had on the
faces and act ions of people.
One day, after she saw a woman
with heaving breast and bright
eyes by moving her lips bring
"deep delight on every face and
tears of joy in many eyes," she
went to one great master who
her understand Iliese
gave her the sense of hearing and
the gift of speech. This did no:
satisfy and the master later gave
her the power of reading men's
thoughts. Willi these powers she
found all wicked motives in
thought and speech of men ; so dis
couraged she returned to the mas
ter and begged him to make her
deaf and dumb again. The .Master
then told Vera that there was yet
one gift which would explain all
these disappointments. What the
Master told her she could never
tell but when the master asked her
"What hearest thou?" She an
•swered "Love!"
"For love is life and they who do
not love
Are not alive. For every soul that
loves
Lives in the heart of (Jod and
hears Him speak."
