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.
