Other rulings of almost equal importance deal with the payment of La Vie assessments in the Junior year and class dues in the Senior year Without exaggeration it can be safely said that the successful woiking out of the interclass constitution depends almost entirely upon the adoption of the proposed amendments If there is to be a progressive administration of class affairs at Penn State, the matter of class finances must be placed upon a sound and permanent basis The adoption of the proposed amendments will be a big step in the light direction. The whole case may be summed up in a few words. The amend ments have been drawn up aftei careful stud) on the part of those who first proposed them; they are essential to the success of the bud get system of finances and they arc now presented to the student body at large for ratification The point is clear Rend over the amendments as they arc printed in this issue and then vote for their adoption when they arc brought up before your class THE COLLEGIAN NOW PRINTED IN TOWN The Colleinan Board wishes to announce that, beginning with this issue, The Collegian will hereafter be printed in State College by the; Nittany Fruiting and Publishing Company, and that the office has been removed to the building occupied by that concern For the past year •:nd a half we have been obliged to have the paper printed in Altoona si•cause of the lack of proper facilities in this town • Recently, however, the local printers have installed a linotype and hove the necessary equipment for printing The Collegian The Board foresees many improvements in the paper as the result of having it printed by the local concern, chiefly because we can publish more late news and will be able to read all proofs, which was impossible when the paper wns printed out of town It must he expected, however, that such a change may bring with ;it inconsistencies and errors of omission and commission until every / thing is in regular running order We trust that our readers will ap preciate the difficulties under which we are placed for the time being. CONCERNING "STICKERS" ON LUGGAGE One practice which has cn;•....icu to increase in disfavor and which is a rebuke to th:..rie and standing of the college is that of putting college "posters", or "stickers", on suitcases and traveling bags The custom is usually associated with the prep-school and small college and is hardly in keeping with present day ethics Certainly this means to cheap notoriety does not add to the prestige of the college, but more especially it advertises the individual whose baggage is so adorned. Particularly during the last vacation it was noticeable that hundreds of suitcases bore conspicuous State labels of various descriptions. Only a short time ago the students of the University of Michigan passed a resolution that no university "stickers" be put on suitcases or other luggage and we would suggest that Penn State pass a similar tiling We would urge the Student Council to consider the matter at its next meeting and then submit the proposal to the student body for action The practice of nailing notices and signs on the trees of the college Lemons has again become so prevalent that the faculty have asked the president of the Student Council to caution the members of the student body to attach notices to the trees only by means of wire or cord ties. There have been requests of this nature from the faculty a number of times in the past and the president of the Student Council esti that everybody concerned comply with these requests c might further advocate tilt.A.,robolishment of this practice altogether especially since the college has pros...ed bulletin boards on the campus for the purpose of advertising all even •f interest to the students Pi em all reports that have come in, we are . led o beireve that the work of the students with their state representatives during the holi days regarding the appropriation from the legislature this year, has been a great one and that much good was accomplished all over the state. Let us not be content to rest here, however, but continue to do everything possible towards making our representatives better ac quainted with Penn State and the things she stands for. There is still much to be done, and it is largely up to the students to do it. To the various musical organizations of the college are due the thanks and appreciation of the entire student body for the unusually large scale upon which they have undertaken to entertain us this win ter with Sunday afternoon concerts and recitals. The college band, the orchestra, the college chorus and organists have each agreed to give two such entertainments to help break the monotony of a long stretch before another vacation comes around. That their efforts are well ..impreciated goes without saying. • We noteinnt the Borol in . the tre_ts of the town. forcing c proyert.t:dc di: ri 0 gh Council announces vast improvements Why not let the good work continue with of the town to keep their sidewalks clear THE GREATEST NEED OF PENN STATE To my mind "the Clentest Need of Penn State" must nettle under one of two hende. camel', mitten lal on spit Itual.
