organization and instilling new features, the new secretary is here
largely for another purpose. He .is present at State College to
show those who have intentions of giving the institution a social
hall that the time is now ripe, that if they do so an organization
thoroughly competent aiid equipped is ready to take charge of the
building and see that its facilities.are not allowed to go to waste.
Let those who have nothing else to do then cease their idle
carpings on the uselessness of the new secretary, and endeavor to
work with their hands in assisting the noble work, rather than
using their tongues in tearing it down.
