OUR, FAREWELL
With this issue, , another year has 'come to the close for the COL
LEGIAN and the old staff'steps down in favor of a neviene. It has
been a year that has been very eventful, both for the members or the ,
old staff arid the college in general. Penn State has risen to greater
heights in many respects, its student body being a substantial-factor
in nearly every case. For the COLLEGIAN the 'present year has been
indeed an eventful one-and we feel, little cog , in the great machinery
of this institution that we but 'are, that if we have -done something
for the college, something that will materially benefit the college andl
• its. students, whether at the present date or in:the "future, that we
have indeed been well repaid for our efforts.
To our subscribers and readers, and to those who have aided in - ,
the publication of the paper in any way,:we take thiS opportunity- to
extend our thinkeffor:without their support -and- encouragement •it
would have'been• much 'more difficult' to' continue publication; •• To
our advertisers, we also wish to. extend our thanks,. for they have
made the paper possible,- and .we hope that- our readers have patron
ized them and that they' have found the paper an excellentadvertising
medium. The, COLLEGIAN is a firm 'advocate' of ri trade-at-home
policy, of a !oral patronage by local people, and -trusts that the people
of the community and college have found this , method.most satisfac
tory. We wish- to emphasize ithe fact to our advertisers as well - as
our subscribers, that the new staff will' need your support, and we
trust that-it is given hs freely as in the past, for the future of this,
publication rests.with the local people and -we trust the newer mem-1
hers are given the wherewithal' to carry it to even greater' use than
we have given it. To these younger members, these new-men who
will continue the publication following the' EaSter recess, who have
done a great portion' of the work on the publication this year, we
extend our best wishes and feel that they -will be able to handle-the
paper successfully( hereafter.
. heleiliTirg — staff feels that, - with the7facilities offered* liy;the
student body, that it has done the-very best-it possibly could• for and
with the publication. This is - the first time that the COLLEGIAN
has ever-been published as a semi-weekly and we 'feel 'that in the ,
future, the growth of . Penn State will find a 'corresponding. growth
in the student newspaper. We 'believe 'that it will. be - a matter of
a few years until the COLLEGIAN will be published thrice - a week
and then finally as a' daily; hut we cannot restrain from-saying - that
it will require a much- greater support than-the , present staff has
had. There is no question but what the-town and 'college •would
appreciate a daily newspaper - and would suppOrt one later on, when
they have grown to the proportion's that would warrant it,-but senti
ment toward that direction must begin -- mow' and , so--we say again;
Support this new staff to the very -hest of your 'ability:' You' will
find that it will not be in 'Vain, , We feel that the- twice-a-week
paper has been a distinct - benefit to the college as a whole, and that
every increase that possibly can be 'made- in the 'future will meet
the approval and support of the students.
We have made many mistakes this year, , all,sf which.we are duly
sorry for, because none were 'made . intentionally. • For - our-editor
ial policy we have no excuses to make, believing that none are nedes,
sary. We have at all times'-striven. to live up to •the , preamble to
our constitution which, in short, means, ' the 'publication •of 'n• care
fully and honestly prepared newspaper, to • give an unprejudiced ,
chronicle of events' and to reflect, the sentiment of the Students of
the college._
,It has been for Penn

thir
tieth if it is to be a success:. The benefit that may result for the
college cannot be underestimated ; nor can the ties .which will un
doubtedly be strengthened when father and son "pal" about the cam
pus.
It is also pleasing to note that - the girli have been asked to enter
the plan and also have their fathers present. There - will. be enough
additional entertainment about college for them. to make , their, stay
a - very pleasant one, aside from the time that will be, required 'in
showing them about. the campus: Talk it, up, every Penn State man
and woman and make this thing a success.- . You can do it,.. Let's go!
MEMORIES
When a man completes his course in college and enters upon ; his
work in the world, he often has very little -time to think of the cal
lege he left behind him and the days he spent there, but-there does
come to him at some time later in life, a time when he can' take his
leisure as is his wont - and Iheri his memories begin to ease the hard
ships with which his life , to 'that , date has been fraught , - Na - matter'
what it is that a man' achieves- in this life, in' the final aarklysie,' the
greatest joy that he will get but of life will.be'in 'the memories That
he has; the remembrande of things done'.from, time to time-during
his life; the joy of this - knowledge, provided -the life -has been' well
spent, of having done worth-while things.' So his 'after - years,. are
hallowed by a "well-done" feeling and hislife has been-of worth to
his fellows. . '
The time to begin making memories is when a man is . in 'college;
if he be fortunate enough to enter: Every , minute. of his' time
should be spent in doing worth while things. This does not in any
way necessitate that man - being'a grind or an undesirable - chap,', It
means that his leisure and:work tinte.is mixed in the rightiproPor
tion. So begin now. The - outdoor season has:but begun , and •the
opportunities that confront' ever man are not limited to a very few;
Get out and into some activity,' some sport.: If you do 'not have
great success at first, do not be dismayed,Amf,keep at , it till you do
achieve something., Then you'begin to make memories. - They real
ly are worth while.' ' Your share is mixed in with 'every other fel
low's. All you have to do is get busy and untangle-the mystery:
There's the job,—but -worth the trouble.

Ins , In the Armory by a 33 to 19 score.
The Igor:mikes were held scoreless In
the. - first - half,except for •three - foul
Foals shot by Llewellyn, the flashy In
diana forward, but in the 'second per
iod, the visiting five. fed by the dough
.ty Llewellyn, slipped through the
any guard for seven field shot; Limy
eityn making five of this number. The
Penn State , Freshmen scored consist
ently throughout the contest and' had
points to their credit. The regular
yearling five played a fine game, and
in the second half, Coach Davis ranin
a number of substitutions all except
Turner making way for the newcomers.
Turner, the sterling Freshman forward,
Played a fine game for: the Blue and
White and shot fouls consistently, mak
ing an average of ten out of seventeen.
The Indiana team was not so fortunate
in Its penalty shooting and made only
five out of thirteen. Warner played a
fine game for 'Penn State.

HARLOW TALKS ON BIRDS •
OF NORTHERN CANADA
Last Tuesday In Old ,Chapel, "Dick"
Harlots• gave an interesting ad even as
Instructive talk on his trip' to Northern'
Canada. Mr. Harlow said that the-trip
,was
made for the primary purpose of
studying the Arctic three-toed , wood-
Decker and the Cape May warbler, in
'order to study these two birds to the
best advantage: the nartYwas compelled
to live in the- woods' for three weeks.
Ordinary food -was ,very scarce and
sometimes they' had nothing to 'eat
but lobsters whiol, seemed to be quite
plentiful.. During their stay In the
woods, the. party secured pictures of
the Arctic three-toed - woodpecker's
nest' which`avere. the first pictures ever
taken of that bird.• They •were con
sidered of tuck Interest 'that the Can- .
adlan Government borrowed them-in
torder - that•they might matte a study of
the -bird. During 'the trip they had
miportunlty• to study the nesting of the
Tennessee warbler.- This bird was said
to nest In bushes, but they learned•that
It builds its nest In' moss on the ground.
Mr. Hariow mid .the country, in general
IS' a Paradise' for' game; They saw
moose mearlyi every, day -and make
several- trips' out- to sea . to study col
onies of seals.-- .
