Columnists Cast Around
For Topics To Write On
By JEWELL WILLIE
A column has been written about every
subject in the world. We are living in a
changing world, but columnists are far ahead
of any metamorphoses, which the old universe
might pull next, and have written columns pn
'em. Casting around for a topic. is always a
mild case of lumbago, but by Wednesday
nighi it is a full case of spinail menigitis which
Icnev/ no stage of incipiency.
However, a subject has made a deep bov/.
Once there was a very ' fine rooster who
could crow so wonderfully that he could be
heard for all of four miles. Progressive men
greatly admired this rooster's crow, and con-
sequently made him mayor of the town and
gathered around merely to hear him crow.
Monday, our senate passed a bill which
proposes a constitutional amendment to grant
voting privileges to youths of 18 and 19 with
their induction into the army. The bill is
passed on the assumption that any man who
is made to fight for his country should he al-
lowed to help choose the government which
will direct- it. This assumption seems to be a
definite_^ bid for political favor for, although on
the surface it appears just and logical,' it is
built on sand. Much has been said to con-
firm the statement that 18 and 19 year old
youths develop into the finest soldiers, but
the fact that they are capable soldiers does
not make them capable voters. It is plausible
that a sm'aill number of the young people in
this age bracket would vote as intelligently
as many people who are now entitled' to do
so, but only a few have the knowledge or
experience which sensible voting requires.
Ideas which we would accept as to redi-
•cal to be merely considered under normal
conditions thrive during any war. Many of
these ideas are excellent and progress could
not be made without them, but it seems that
even war-panic would not make it possible
or accept some of them. In this case, it would be
much more practical to make informed voters
of those already eligible than to lower the
required age limit. Would not the make-
believe men have been more rational if they
had elected a quaiUfied man mayor and then
taught him to crow, if crowing was what they
wanted? , •

THE ANNOUNCEMENT
The following poem, written by Miss Mabry Harper,
faculty member of the home economics department, was
printed in the September issue of the ffhcistiaa Science
Monitor.
Tkese rumors spread that summer time has gor^e:
The antg of air, the, bronze upon the corn,
Pale gold on hills ent-wined with china blue
Where yesterday the fresh green grasses grew,
A lonely bird crouched under dripping eaves.
Bright crimson stains upon hte maple leaves.
The clear chirp of crickets in the night,
A bee too drowsy for his sunward, flight,
And wagons creeking on the hard highway
When bringing 'hom.e the loads of fragrant hay.
Today a brown leaf whirled against my face,
Autumn's announcement sent through sapphire space
By lyric wind set in minor key.
Like some old wistful, haunting melody.
"Aw nuts« I thought we'd have at least one day oU alter
th* faculty pUytdioMMtt."
Sajhuday, October 24, 1842.
Our Part In National Defense
• Very soon—^in less than three months—our ;^, .
campus wilt be the training site for 400 |
WAVES, who will devote their lives unreser-
vedly, in the war program to defend our dem-
ocratic principles of living. While they will /
operate under a greatly systematized program,
with no appreciable free time, we will be
privileged to continue our college work, with
freedom of choice and hmitless . comforts.
Yes, we have this now, but the continuation
of this sort of life can not be possible unless
we support those who are already in the
armed forces in fighting for the preservation
of our democracy. What are we, individually,
contributing to the preservation of this dem-
ocracy? What life are we individually living
in this time of world-wide conflict?
Citizens throughout the country are privi-
leged to contribute to the war program through
the purchase of war stamps and bonds, the
contribution of scrap metals, and in countless '
other ways. But a comparatively small num-
ber of people Jiaye the opportunity to share ^
their college "campus with the WAVES. Such--^-^,
an opportunity will be ours. Although we, ••
as students, are not in the WAVES, we will
have a great responsibility in the WAVE pro-
ing the induction center on our campus the
best that it can possibly be. The students of
one well-known college where a WAVE mnit
is located resented th^, WAVES stationed
there. Will such an unpatriotic, inconsistent,
unselfish attitude develop on GSCW cam-
pus? Certainly not if each person intelligently
realizes that these and other women and men
in our armed forces are • fighting, some very
desperately, for the comforts, the freedom
fj
that we possess, have possessed in the past,
expect to possess always.
The location of the WAVE center here will
bring national recognition and other benefits ^1
to our college. The adjustments that we as
students must make in order to accommodate
the additional group seem very insignlEcant
in comparison to the sacrifices that are being
made, the lives that are being given for the*--
way of life that is best for us all., The privilege',
of sharing our campus with the WAVES is a
distinct one. Do we merit it? We must and
can through the patriotic soirit of each student.
Watch Your Step
A college can easily, and logically be judg-
ed by its appearance. In fact our college is
partially judged by the appearance of the
grounds. Some students have been more
loyal to the subject of mathematics than art
in upholding the theqry that the shortest dis-
tance between two points is a straight line
between the points. In some instances this
careless plan has been poorly developed be-
cause not 'all of these "short cuts" on the cam-
pus are straight. The inc?reasing number of
paths throughout the campus detracts greatly
froHi the beauty of the grounds.
During rush periods it is difficult to con-
sider the beauty of the campus, but good hab-
its can be formed as easily as poor ones. As
we form habits of taking certain routes on th"^
campus, we should not only consider' our- *'
selves, but hundreds of others who are a part
of the college.
We need art in every day life; that is, art
on our campus. We need to consider 'not
only the utility but also the unity, and fhe
simplicity, good proportion, and form of the
lines by campus paths. An art course is not
a student's prerequisite in determining the
paths habitually used. However, intelligent
corisideration is.
Paper is very unattractive on the campus
grounds, but because of carelessness or lack of
consideration for the campus appearance, it
is dropped on the campus grounds.
We believe that there has been considerable
progress made during the past year in im-
proving the appearance of the campus. How-
ever, each student needs to .continue to be ^
conscious of .an .attractive campus and d h^'-
partin upholding andraising that-standard.
