OPPORTUNITY FOR SERVICE
Student opinion on the proposed tablet memorial for the Penn
State men who gave their lives in the great world war is rapidly
spreading its favorable attitude and all evidences point to a successful
undertaking when the matter is taken up by Student Council at its
next meeting. But without any previous student action the matter
is being handled very well and in an enthusiastic manner by the mem
bers of the Rehabilitation Club. Right here we wish to take off our
hats to the Rehabs. Without any request of any sort they have offer
ed fo support the erection of a memorial to Penn State's heroes and
have set a portion of the receipts from their next production as their
offering. It is a very worthy thing that they have done and the COL
LEGIAN hopes that the students will widely extend their support not
only because of the performance that the club will present but also
for the good that can be done toward supplying funds for the memor
ial.
The proposition of obtaining funds for this memorial does not
present itself as being one of great difficulty because it is felt that
for such a worthy, cause Penn State students will gladly give their:
mite. Inasmuch as hopes for the memorial building are still enter
tained, it was thought best to suggest the purchase of a tablet, with
the names of those men who gave up their lives inscribed upon it, the
memorial thus obtained to be one which could at a later date be in
corporated in the memorial building. It is a worthy project in itself
and should be carried out with the whole-hearted support of the stud
ent body. It is high time that Penn ,State proved her respect and
honor for those men who made the supreme sacrifice. Support the
Rehab show for its part in the project, and then, when the big drive is
made, don't be afraid to contribute your mite toward Penn State's
Honor Memorial.
Last fall the COLLEGIAN made a number of pleas to the student
body for candidates from the Freshman and Sophomore classes to the
editorial stall' of this publication. After several weeks of waiting the
reward came in the form of two Sophomores and six Freshmen. At
various times during the year men have come and have expressed a
desire to try out and have been given the opportunity, Tile two
Sophomdes filtered out and at present the number of Freshmen who
have-survived the past few months work totals to seven. On Tues
day evening another opportunity will be given to men of the first
year class to try out for this publication. The opportunity that was
open to Sophomores is gone. We hope for a real represention of the
Class of 1924 in answer to this next call.
It is very hard to understand why men will not come out for'a
student publication. The opportunities open to men in college are
many and in most cases the offices thus to be obtained go begging. The
opportunity that lies before a Freshman who enters work on this
publication are' numerous and the experience gained as well as the
satisfaction felt at having accomplished something for the college are
factors that will mean much to the average man when his college days
have long become memories.
The COLLEGIAN shOuld not be forced to plea for men so that
its future will be safe, but men should desire to find themselves thru
work of this nature. It cannot but give a broadening influence to the
individual and make him better and more fully equipped because of
having engaged in it. Upper-classmen who have realized the loss that
they have experienced because in their underclass days they failed to
go out for some activity such as this should see to it that some Fesrh
man of their acquaintance of at least ordinary ability and tendency
along this line reports for this initial meeting of the newer candidates.
If the COLLEGIAN is to amount to anything in the future, it
will be through the men who make up the staff and through no other
agency. Let us have the best men in the Freshman class. In four
years they should provide a bigger and better publication for Penn
State.
BENEFIT MOVIE AIDS
EUROPEAN RELIEF FUND
The Mouton Picture show given Wed
nesday afternoon by the Zs:Many Theat
re Company for the benefit of the re
lief work in Europe, proved popular
with the students and resulted in send
ing nearly one hundred dollars to the
European Relief Council through the
:notion Inouye Committee of Aestern
Pennsylvania. The expenses of the ex
hibition for one showing were borne
by the Theatre Company and the re
e eipts were turned over to the Com
❑litee, which is aiming to raise three
and a half million dollars through the
various motion picture houses. The
taking of collections from the audiences
during an Intermission has been popul
ar means of raising the money in some
tor:tittles. but Ali% Baum, the manager
of the local theatre decided that the
greatest good could be done hy donat
ing the proceeds of one show.

To the practicql man it might be suggested that criticisms

By that time the College Man will have fizzled out and critic

to make good andl since he is making good from a practical
standpoint, it is reasonable to suppose that he may sometime

attempt to show by his work and not by his talk what he is

he can enter upon his work without the remainder of the gang
suspecting that he is from a college and can prevent them from
knowing it until li• can establish himself in practical work. If
he cannot possibly do this, then he should refer to his college
and college training as little as possible and be sure when he
does mention it that he has justified his title by his work that
day.
