I We have all wondered, “what arc we here for? Why are we here?” Dr. Gaines brought this thought to us in liis opening address to the col lege. When M'c read an article in this month’s Survey on “Why Hick man Hangs” wo finally' get back to this (jucstion. Iliekman’s mother should have been in au insane asy lum all her life, according to this article. The article also states that Ilickinan himself should have been placed in a school for feeble minded or \ery unusual children. The writer says that there should have Ijcen a census taken for cbiklrcii like Jlickmaji. If we conie to school to learn how to enjoy life, give our lives in service to ollicrs, or express unr love to our associates, here is a tiood example of how we may do this, ll i?: also just a hint of how we can ujildy ihi.s love of onr fellow man to onr everyday life. This also answers (inr qnestioii, “Wliat are we here for?" If we answer this question in this manner and really apply it In nir lives wo will be radiantly li!i|i|iy and joyful. EXCHANGE (Tlie following article is found in the Technician whlcli in turu had clipped it from the Salemile. We con sider it worth reprinting several more times,) la CoLLKGE Life WoRTn While? Now that the newness has woru off our college year, I wonder how many of us find the life we are beginning to lead monotonous and dull. Do we look upon it as holding nothing for the future except themes and note books and math problems? Have we l)econie discouraged and downhearted and wonder why in the world we ever decidcd to come to collgee anyway? If this Is the case it is time we all paused for a few minutes to realize why we are here, and to decide if the life we lead here is going to be worth while. Our college life is what we make it. If we came with the idea of putting all our time and efforts into It we will certainly gain something in re turn. On the other hand, if we are careless and flippant in our work, col lege will mean very little to us. There are three groups of girls in every school today. In the first group is the girl who devotes all her time to her studies, who has uo interest in outside activities, but who makes ex cellent marks on all her work. In the second group we find the girl who never "cracks a book” until the time for tests, who manages to get by on a few subjects, and who is always com plaining of how dull college is. Lastly, we have the girl who goes neither to one extreme nor to the other. She studies and makes good grades. She is interested in all activities about the campus, and can always be relied upon to help at any time. In other words, she is a “good sport." College to a girl of this type will be worth while. She is not only enjoying the present, but is preparing for the future. She does not have time to find her life monotonous or dull. If there were more of this group of girls in coliege, how much better place it wonkl be! Since it is up to us to make inir college life worth while, let’s all iry tbronghout the coming months to do everything in our power to make Ibis the Ijcst year ever!
