Every man was deeply impressed and inspired by the events of the day and went away feeling as Hatfield did when he remarked during the day that if a man has latent powers and possi bilities he is making a great mis take if he wastes it away on some "peanut job”. To help every man find these possibilities and utilize them in the right way is the lesolve of every cabinet member. Y. M. C. A. Reception for Freshmen One of the most elaborate recep tions to the freshman class is plan ned by the Y. M. C. A. for Friday evening. The event this year will take place on the front campus where more than a hundred Japan ese lanterns will be placed for this occasion alone. The college band will render a concert throughout the entire evening and a number of selections will be rendered by the Glee Club. More than a score of The Home of Fine Confections Agency for the Best line of Chocolates on the Market LUNCHEONETTE Special Sale at refreshment booths will be estab lished at various places over the campus and a hearty welcome will be extended to the class of 1918. A plan is under way by which the freshmen can be distinguished from sophomores and upper classmen. This idea has been adopted in order that not a single freshman will leave the ground without a hearty handshake by the old men. At this reception the new men are all given an opportunity to meet the president of the college and the leading men in student activities. The freshman reception is one of the rare treats to every class and without a doubt the one planned for Friday evening will surpass all previous years. Freshman Bilik* Class No freshman who comes to Penn State can afford to miss the oppor tunities for developing true-man hood that are offered by the fresh man bible class.

This class meets every Sunday morning immediately after the freshman chapel exercises. Noted men and educators from all parts of the country address these meetings. As a part of the pro gram for Sunday upper classmen and sophomores will speak at the session and tell what the class has meant to them in past years. Men of 1918, there is no one col lege activity or any one thing at Penn State that will do as much for you during your freshman year as the freshman bible class. If you are looking for a real live meeting stay for this class on Sunday morn ing. This year on Tuesday evenings there will be a class prayer meeting for each of the four classes. This is a new scheme as heretofore only one meeting was held for the four classes. It has been deemed ad visable to have four classes from now on. This will give each man in attendance an opportunity to speak before his own classmates, if he so desires, on his interpretation of the Christian life. It is hoped by having the classes meet separ ately that greater interest and en thusiasm will be shown in these Tuesday evening meetings. Dr. Eaton of the School of Mines spent a great deal of time during this last summer in Geological re search 1 work in the East Nittany Valley. Many improvements have gone on in the Agricultural Group this summer, the Agricul ture library has been transferred to a much larger and more commod ious room. The library is a very important factor in the work of the school and this change, it is hoped, will greatly increase its efficiency. Class Prayer Meetings Departmental Notes.
