With it comes the consequences of examinations, students leaving, new students enrolling, and registration for second semester. 1 his time can well be a time of self-evaluation as the semester ends and examinations are begun. Each one comes to realize that this is his last chance to improve or impair what he has done during the past semester. The grades will be made and will be a standing part of .vour record from this time forth. A word of advice (that which we . seldom heed) is think clearly, keep calm, and study hard during the few remaining hours before }mur “Waterloo.” bo prepare that when the grades are posted on that challenging sheet, you will not blush when seeing yours. To the thirty-eight new students we sav “Welcome.” May you soon get into the spirit of Mars Hill. To those students leaving we wish the best of everything m life. We apologize for not being our best to you at all times. We are glad that we have known you and will cherish your friendship always. Registration may mean only a long while standing in line or just a lot of trouble. It is not being fair to yourself if you have such an attitude.^ AVhy not think seriously? One should not choose a course because it is thought to be easy. One should not seek an easy course rather seek one that offers a challenge. ’ All of this is a part of an old semester’s ending and a new one’s beginning. Do your best in the future.

It is from the Public Relations Department of the National Foundation of Infantile ParaLsis.) The value Americans place upon the life and dignitv' of each indi vidual is not just a civics course platitude. It is a genuine and unique characteristic of our societv. Those of us who have traveled abroad—as tourists or sendeemen— know^ that in man}* lands the sight of the miserable and ill, huddled in allev's and doorwa}*s, is so common that it passes almost unnoticed. In the United States the life or death of a single person may become a matter of national concern ... a \*oung girl lost in the woods, a kidnaped baby, a child trapped in a well. We do not attempt to put a price on a single life nor the value of mending it. We know that here we are dealing with the priceless. Similarl}*, we refuse to accept the inevitability of disease and suffering. We band together and fight them. An outstanding example of this is the fight against polio through the March of Dimes. In this fight millions of men and women, believing in their individual importance and in their collective strength, have joined hands in typical American fashion. They move forward with unfailing determination, buttressed b}* the knowledge that today’s research is pointing the way tn tnmnrrmiT’c also were lucky Cupid doesn’t forget the fac ulty!

Take Inventory A new year, a fresh start, another semester, and, yes, more resolutions are all part of our experience this season. To be sure, everyone looks forward to the time when a backward glance can be taken to the glorious past and a renewed effort can be made for a brighter future. All want to feel that they have a place where they can begin again and aim just a little higher. In considering your record for 1955, take unto yourself a little efficiency and move out in the right direction. Be consistent in your undertakings. There will be no demand for drifting students; so look ahead right now and see where you are going. Set some goals for your daily accomplishments—of course you want goals that will hold meaning and purpose for your life. Your goals will be only dreams unless you form a plan for reaching them. Yes, this plan will call for following good directions with wisdom, but also, you must be willing to go all of the way. Why not resolve to increase your friendliness toward others?
