Member of lutorcollcgluto Newspaper Association FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1920 CONDUCT IN CHAPEL At last Sunday’s chapel services a most flagrant violation of per sonal conduct was noted Several students had purchased newspapers before going to the service and during the hour were.engaged in gleaning the contents therefrom. They gave little attention to the speaker, his topic nor the fact that their actions were being noted. They were interested only in the paper. It seems rather hard to understand why men should do these things. Chapel is not a form. It is not a place where men may do as best suits them. It is first, last and always a place of worship and if one cannot enter into that portion of it then he can and should re main in respectful attention of the speaker, and those about him who do enter into the spirit of the service Many students have an idea that chapel is nothing else than an institution used frrt- compulsion of student activity, whether it be daily or Sunday. We do not at this point desire to discuss the rights or wrongs of daily or Sunday chapel. That there are both desirable and undesirable features about the for former is true, but the latter is without question a good to be desired at every educational institution. However, chapel is a feature of stud ent life at Penn State and as such should be regarded as one of the essentials. Men go to church because they desire to do so. They go whether at home or at State College. There is no reason whatever why Sun day chapel is not the same and and does not produce the snmc for each man and woman in college as the services in a church. It is the college church service, where the college and its students enter into the spirit of worship in the Lord’s house Any act on the part of any student which detracts a single iota from the sincerity of this worship belittles himself and the spiritual light to be obtained in worship. Such acts as were noted last Sunday were very uncomplimentary to the speaker, to his topic and to all the students in the service. Let us have no repetition of such an act but rather let’us have a more concent rated desire on the part of each student to make Sunday chapel a vital part of each week's life and to drive the great good that may be gotten from the teachings of His work. THE DAMAGE FUND PAYS Student activities during the past week were again responsible for a removal of money from the Damage Fund of each class. A goodly amount of apples were stolen from the Horticultural Building und the loss was considerable because the fruit had been grown in the college experimental orchard, thereby necessitating a further loss in compiling the records for this orchard. This case is just an example of the many things which arise during the college year and for which the student body in. general must pay. The damage fund, which is made possible through the class dues, is used to pay for these es capades. When a clas finally reaches its senior year, whatever mnoey re mains in the class damage fund at the end of that year is used toward paying a portion of the Senior Memorial to the college. Thus it is easily seen that the amount o£ money a class will have in its damage fund for use toward the memorial will be directly propor tionate to the amount of money drawn from the fund for de fraying expenses caused by the destructive tctivities conducted by that class of by the nueber of students whose identity is unknown but for whose cscapedcs the entire college must pay. Therefore, let us have less of these destructive activities. If our college really means as much to us as we are prone to say, then we shall certainly desire to leave her some fitting memorial of that feeling. If not, then we may expect a dashing, gluttonous charge upon the damage fund. However, the COLLEGIAN believes that the former case is the true one at Penn State and that the students will attempt to lessen and to discourage any such activities as arc against the best interests of the college. Such things as have happened here this year arc* certainly to be discouraged. They have dug deeply in the damage fund and have not been for the best interests to the college Let us have no more of them. The practice of cutting corners has become a bad one this fall. The campus was very beautiful when college opened and nearly all the walks were fringed with a pretty, clean cut border of green. Now the walks all over the campus and particularly those leading directly to the various buildings are in a disorderly condition and give the ap pearance of sprawling toward the buildings rather than the neat way they looked when college opened. In this matter the students alone have been at fault. For the best appearance of the campus nnd for the sake of keeping a live border of green about the walks, let us be more observant of our conduct and keep to the regular paths, espe cially in regard to the corners.
