We wonder if any
Why Did any one else ever re-
He Flunk ? ceives so much criti-
cism as does the col-
lege professor immediately after
examinations. Following is a cor-
rect version of a conversation heard
in the local post office
Mr. A. “Hello there, how did
you make out in the German exam.
yesterday ?’’
Mr. B. “Don't talk German to
me today. Do you see that ?
That means he gave me another E.
and I worked hard for him too. I
don’t see why we fellows have to
take so much of that stuff, we’ll
never use it anyhow. I’ll admit
that I can’t get that grammar into
my head, but I did all the transla
tion and the passage at sight was a
cinch. I thought I hit that hard.
I am glad it isn’t Carbons though.”
“So far the conversation. Not
many hours before overhearing this
conversation, the “professor” had
been struggling with a problem
something like this, which, by the
way, is translation :
“A peasant during the nite his
beautifuiest horse had stollen out
of the stable. He made a journey
five days long on one Horse to buy
another. But see -he found under
the for sale horses at the market,
besides his horse. He grasps it
quickly by the bridal (this is trans
lated into good English lit. it means
he knew it by the brand) and
shouted highly: this horse is mein.
For three days he was stollen from
me. Then the man who had the
horse for sail said very peeviously:
you are misten (probably intended
for .mistaken,’’) my dear friend, I
have the horse alredy over a year.
This is not your animal. It looks
only similar (lit. it looks out of
only one eye.) Then the farmer
quickly hid (closed or looked
into) the horses eyes and cried:
Now if you indeed have had the
steed so long, tell me in which eye
he is blind.”
But there is still hope. Goethe
"Wer immer strebend sich bemuht,
Den konnen wir erlosen.”
Owing to the appar-
Accidents ent inability of the
Will State Center Electric
Happen Company to furnish
heat, light and other
necessities during the fore part of
the week, and to the resulting sus
pension of activity in the Nittany
Printing and Publishing Company’s
offices, the Collegian is forced to
appear later this week.
The great “Eddy-
Successsful fication” Campaign is
Campaign over, and there can be
no doubtas to the act
ual good which it has accomplished.
The very presence among us of
such men as Sherwood Eddy and
his associates, and the mere know
ledge of what they have accom
plished in the past, are sufficient
guarantees of the principles which
they stand for and which they
advocate for others. The immedi
ate results of the campaign may be
seen in the new attitude of many
men; if there are some who remain
practically uninfluenced, certainly
the events of the past week have
made everyone think; and this
compulsory thinking and reasoning
out the problems of life are, to
many, the ultimate proofs of the
success of such a religious cam-
Several times during
A the past month falls of
Suggestion snow melting and then
freezing over have in
troduced a condition which has
been a source of annoyance to per
sons who are forced to use the
walks about the campus in that it
has greatly retarded their progress
in going to and from classes. An
other element which has been intro
duced and which is much more
serious is that of danger from fall
ing and perhaps sustaining serious
injury. In view of these facts, may
we not suggest and urge that either
some effort be made to have the
snow removed from these uneven
pathways or that sand or ashes be
scattered over those places where
ice has formed.
Alumni Associations Thriving
The President of the College and
the Secretary of the Alumni Asso
ciation have almost completed the
list of alumni reunions planned for
this winter. Thus far they have
attended gatherings of Penn State
men at Boston, New York,
Baltimore, Buffalo, Pitts
burgh, Clevel and, Chicago, and
Minneapolis. They have yet to
visit Altoona, Harrisburg, Philadel
phia and Schenectady. At every
meeting, although those present
represented classes ranging from
the ’6o’s to ’l3, there was the same
loyalty, enthusiasm and interest in
everything pertaining to the institu
tion. College songs and college
yells showed that lung power does
not diminish after graduation.
Buffalo had thirty-five present
out of foi ty-three Penn State men
residing in the vicinity. Chicage
had sixty-two present and was
honored by the President Judson of
the University of Chicago. New
York had as guests H. W, Mitchell,
’9O, and J. F. Shields, ’92, Trustees
of the College, and R. W. William
son, ’93, President of the General
Alumni Association. Boston will
THE PENN STATE. COLLEGIAN
Distinctively Individual
To turn out high grade laundry work is a fine art. To make the linen “live" and have that neat, smooth finish so
much .desired by the man who cares, is a secret gained only by careful study and painstaking care. We give
you absolutely the best grade of work to be had. YOUR WORK IS DONE THE MODERN WAY
“WE KNOW HOW.” ALL COLLARS TURNED BY HAND

hold her dinner next year on the
evening aftes the Harvard game
and will include the members of
the football team. Baltimore and
Cleveland furnished an innovation
in the presence of ladies at their
dinners. Pittsburgh outdid herself
in numbers and enthusiasm.
The support of the Alumni is a
valuable asset to any colle re, and
Penn State is rapidly crystallizing a
sentiment equal to that of the older
colleges. The geographical dis
tribution of the dinners ranging
from East to West shows how
widely the Alumni are scattered
and in what numbers they are
gathered about prominent points.
Steps will be taken in the near
future for a nation —wide reunion
on the PacilJc slope in 1915 in con
nection with the Exposition at San
Francisco.
La Crosse.
There will be a meeting of the
La Crosse association Saturday.
Watch the bulletin board for the
time and place.
WHO MADE THE DEMAND FOR
OUR COUGH TABLETS?
The answer is easy. Every one who
has used our cold tablets speaks high
ly of them. It’s very natural, there
fore, that one who has suffered and
who has been cured, should reccom
mend them to his friends. Use
Krumrine’s Laxative Cold Tablets

flammed vocal chords; you will find
them reliable and easy to take. They
act on the system in a gentle, but ef
fective way.
