TO MEN OF THE 1919 and 1920 CLASSES An energetic, aggressive and enthusiastic nlumm body is of in estimable value to any college This statement comes home with par ticular force as icgurds Penn State, foi the very existence of this college depends m a large measure upon the interest and efforts of its alumni. If the truth of what has been said be admitted, how then go about building up this body of energetic, aggressive and enthus iastic Penn State boosters 9 100 often the Penn State undcigraduate completes his college course, pu>s his alumni association dues and goes out into the ‘world to become an alumnus in name only He has paid his alumni dues, bue there his inteiest stops in other words he is dead wood ns far as Penn State is concerned. It is at this point that the COLLEGIAN wishes to call to the attention of the 1919 and 1920 classes a plan adopted by the class of IQIS at a meeting just pi or to the nud-jear graduation. As this meeting a committee was appointed to go over the class roll and divide the members of the class into diifcrcnt groups, according to the geographical districts in which the members lived When this work had been completed, the most aggressive and wide-awake 1918 man in each district was to be appointed the district "live-wire and was furnished with the names and addresses of the 1918 men in his dis trict. It was then his duty to get in touch personally with each one of these men, urging him to join the local Penn State alumni club, it he had not already done'so, to attend Penn State luncheons and; banquets, and to take an active interest in Penn State affairs gcncr-j The foregoing plan, as it has been worked out by the class of 1918, is presented to the members of the 1919 and 1920 classes for what it may be worth Doubtless even better plans to accomplish the same object can be evolved, but at any rate the plan, as it stands, is a step in the right direction, and for that reason should wurrant the oMFni nnd careful consideration of every Penn State Senior Advertising is necessary lor the success of many college activi ties, but it may become a hindrance to all activities unless certain little courtesies arc observed. It is no more than courtesy, let alone fair play, that all advertising matter which has served its purpose should be removed from the bulletin boards of the campus There is no excuse why signs should remain before the students for two and three dujs after the event has taken place. Such carelessness simply means that something else is being cheated out of a fair share of space. Let’s bear this tn mind in this season ol numerous activi ties and take down the signs after their purpose has benn fulfilled. With this issue, the COLLEGIAN is beginning a feature, which it is hoped can be continued every month This is a plan to publish some article or general news item concerning the Canton Christian College, at which place there are at present two Penn State men, G. W Groff ’O7 and W L Funkhouser ’l9. By this means, the stu dent body will be brought in closer touch with the Penn State work in China and will have an authoritative source for learning for what purposes the Sunday chapel collections arc used “DADDY” GROFF WRITES INTERESTING ARTICLE (Continued horn lint pngo) auction niul iu.iv in.ukeLs Tin. groat question now before Chinn in from vvhotico Hliatll this needed leadoiahlp Bui suppose it wore granted Unit a lutlsfuotoiy solution of China's problem of tlimncc, transput tnllon and Internal affairs could ho arrived ui within the mxt decudo Whin, of tho technical leadership necessary for hoi ugrlcul turat awakening which must llkuwlsu enmo within that period if China Is to mint her present opportunity Com pirntlvcly five of China's returned students have been trained in either the productive ot Industrial phrase of agricultural Institutions, such ns wo Hud in tho West, turning out the thousands of young men which every Shite now* finds necessary for its rural dev elopement There nre a number of Chlneso-vwstLin Institutions projecting such courses It is through these in sUlulious that Chlneso and western ex perts am co-opernto in tho most effl (lent study und developcmcnt of Chinn’s agricultural icaources These institu tions arc In peculiar position to digest mil assimilate the best agricultural pi acllces of both tho old Chinese civil isation and those of thu moro recent western dovetotenont As sucli they should leceho the lientj support of both western and Chinese interests, und through tlioso Institutions Chlneso and foiidgn ovpcitM can most quickly uirlvo at thu most practical solution to tho varied phrases of the new awaken ing.
