Honor and Cooperation
Year by year each girl at Saint
Mary’.s is put more and more on
her honor to do the things which
are honest, straightforward, and
truthful. Yet we have to be re
minded of some things which we
should never have to be told to
do. One of these is going to chapel.
in tlie past, proctors have seen
that everyone attended chapel;
this year we are put on our honor
both to go and to be there on
time. It should be no obligation
to go to chapel three times a week,
but rather a desire within us to
go to and take part in these serv
ices. The quietness and restful
ness which we exiierience there
could lift us and make us look
forward to our services.
Now that we have been put on
our own about chapel, and about
numei-ous other things, we have
opportunities to show oui- trust
worthiness. If we make it evident
that we deserve to have confi
dence placed in us, we can finally
achieve our goal of complete stu
dent government. This will take
the co-operation of every person,
but it can be done.
‘Rumors Are Flying . .
Loose talk—dangerous talk—
frightened wdiispering of “another
war.
‘the end of the world”—
flies irresponsibly about in many
current conversations.
Much of this hysterical talk is
a type of unwarranted propa
ganda. This kind of propaganda—
expressions of opinion neither
sound nor exact—may lead us
into another war.
JMilitary leaders whisper among
themselves “War with Russia is
inevitable; we must fight Russia.”
If this is kept up, many thought
ful persons may be convinced that
war really is approaching.
Pessimistic, hysterical war talk,
coming from national, political, or

SPOTLIGHT
Our spotlight shines on a senior gal
Who as chief dance marshal should
be your pal.
She came from Wilson, N. G., last
year
And is now a dignified senior here.
After graduation she’s Carolina-
bound
But to marry is her ambition, we
found.
She dislikes work of any kind
And “no drag” after meals doesn’t
suit her mind.
