Member of XntcrcoUeglnto newspaper Association News Editor This Issue TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1921 WHY WORK? ’ Generally speaking, everybody hates to work, so why work? Why not go ahead having a good time continuously s Ask that question of the registrar and he will probably have something to say about the matter, for more below grades were sent out this past month than at any other time in the history of the college. "Work”, said a prominent writer, “is a panacea for many an ill of human kind” and it is also the only remedy that can be found for the present plague of below grades at Penn State. We have had our fun We have attended numerous celebrations, anniversaries and football games. In fact, many of jus have lived from one football game to next and it is our belief that the time has not been wasted, for Penn State students will undoubtedly profit by the lessons of the gridiron, just as the college will profit by the in crease in college spirit which this year’s victorious eleven has brought. Primarily, however, most of us came here to get an edu cation and the report of the registrar certainly indicates that a vast number of Penn State students are not getting as much out of their college course as the college demands. Work is the only cure and the time to begin is the present The three weeks that are directly ahead, are undoubtedly the most im portant of the semester. The work done now will greatly determine the grades which will be turned in at the end of January. This year no re-examinations will be given, and what would have meant a con dition last year will now mean/a repetition of the subject. Every .J" manWha.xbcervfe'd a* “yellow"slip” will haVe to 1 get to wort. ‘ rio not pass up the opportunity. Get busy and help make Penn State a champion in scholarship as well as a champion in football. SHERWOOD EDDY As the greatest religious leader of students in America, Sherwood Eddy came to Penn State for three things. He sought to teach the dynamic power and love of Christ as the father of men and arbiter of human destiny. Next he endeavored to show the power and practic ability of prayer m everyday life. And lastly he sought to help Penn State students with their daily problems to be better, cleaner men and women. He took up the problems now facing the world, explaining the disarmament situtation. He portrayed the tragic plight of the starv ing millions of Europe, and showed what a little charity on the part of America can do to relieve the situation. He outlined the inequal ities of our industrial system. In all his talk, he displayed a profound knowledge of his subject. Following his visit of two years ago, there was a noticeable lift of the moral plane of Penn State. He brought vividly home to the crowds that listened to his message, the advantage of the Christian life. Just as during the past week-end, he flayed the weakness of the flesh, gambling, drinking, and lust, and as a result Penn State became a better, cleaner place. It is unfortunate that Sherwood Eddy came to Penn State when a large part of the student body was away visiting in Pittsburgh or home celebrating the Thanksgiving period. By reaching the entire student body, his visit might have had more far-reaching effect, had he come at another date. However no matter what the date, Penn State was proud to have had the opportunity to listen to such a man Just as two years ago, study classes will be established to carry on the discussion started by Mr. Eddy. This evening in the Y. M. C. A. Hut all men who are interested are to meet in order to form such groups. This part of the program is of just as much importance or even a little more, than the meetings themselves, and the lasting effect which is f to come of the meetings will largely come from these groups.
