Entered at the Poeta(lce, State College, Pa, as second class matte, Office: Nittany Printing and Publishing Co 'Building Member of Eastern Intercollegiate 2:Mr - stioper Association TUESDAY, MAY 30, 1922 MEMORIAL DAY An instance of a word having several different meanings accord ing to the temperament of the individual is illustrated in the words "Memorial Day." To sonie it is a day to be spent in that de lightful pastime popularly known as loafing To others, it is a time to dust off the flags, and buy leinonade or ice-cream. To the under classmen, it is - a day wasted in marching and in toting the Springfields around the streets. To the great majority, it is a time set aside to pay respect to those heroes who have died for their country. It has often been said that Patriotism is the noblest passion that animates mankind. It has been dominant in all races. Since Me morial Day is the only day coming in the Penn State calendar which can be devoted to honoring the country and its ideals, it is fitting that the observance at State College should be of the best. Extensive arrangements haire been made by the committee in charge and all of the details of a typical Memorial Day will be fea tured during the course of the day. As usual there will be the parade of organizations, civil, fraternal and military. Then the Memorial Tablet will be unveiled This will be the biggest event of the observ ance. Plans were started last year for purchasing a tablet as a symbol of reverence for those Penn Stafe sons who left their Alma Mater at the call of their country. These men did not consider the cost, no sacrifice was too great; they answered the call of duty. Penn State is anxious to honor these men. However, these many forms—parades, salutes, tablets—are but outward signs of a reverence that possesses each student and alumnus, which is even greater in those who can recall the familiar faces on the campus that are no more. May the names , of those , be emblazoned on the annals of Tithe that will ever ,call forth '—devotion! - Let us not forget those men of '6l and-'65 who also left their homes and colleges as young men. Their ranks are fast dwindling and soon we will be forced to depend upon tradition and history for stories of the Civil War. They fought just as hard in those days, suf fered as many privations, and were inspired with the same high ideals. Men of '75, men of '6l, men of '45, men of '9B, and men of 'l7—all de fenders of their country. Indications are not wanting' to the effect that State College is booming and that an unusual grOwth is to take' place in the near fu ture. Those who have made a careful study of the trend of events ex pected this development but it is doubtful if many even thought that rents would rocket to so high a mark in so short a time And the only consolation that the college can derive from this is the fact that the high water mark has not yet been'reached. Evidently, the owners of residences, fraternity houses, and board ing clubs are of the opinion thaethe past high rents have not netted them sufficient return on their investment and they have proceeded to raise their rents approximately fifty 'per cent. As in other less auspicious times, the "sky is the limit" and the college must pay the bills. Many seem to think that the town will undoubtedly grow as the college grows and this would normally be the case But when such conditions arise that an instructor must move his family to some other town to support them, or that fraternities must go into debt and build in the hope of paying off any debt incurred after a long period of sacrifice or that a 'proprietor of a hoarding club must charge exorbitant prices in order to realize a fair profit, then the town will not grow as it should. Concerted action of some nature should be started to combat these soaring prices. Wings should he clipped and the bird caged in an en closure to keep it from enjoying unlimited freedom as it does now. 0 TEMPORA! 0 MORES! The Council of Administration discovered several moons ago that a miscalculation had been made when the college became daylight mis ers and consequently decreed that we had saved up all that can be pos sibly used during the summer months. The last hour was hoarded away last Saturday and the student body set itself to enjoy the bliss that comes with an extra hour of sleep. In other words, just as this main-spring fever has started to harass our city relatives, Penn State announces in gleeful terms that it has had its fill, as in the case of the Honor System, the cider scrap, and skiing. The student body enjoyed those extra beams that lighted the way for many a contest but the townspeople never became enthusiastic about the idea. Many of the latter agreed to fall in, or rather fall out an hour earlier, just to accommodate the' powers that be, since both must coordinate and incidentally to gain that added hour of loafing time Then a complication arose in that a number of the Faculty could not bring themselves to enjoy the beauties of the early morning which might be profitably used in slumber. Since that time, watches have been about as useful as bad debts. If you look at them too soon you are an hour late and if you stare at them too late, you are too quick. The Pennsylvania Raihold system, the State College Bus Service, the town bank, and other "big Busi: nesses" refused to play the part - of big brother by humoring our whims. It is commonly believed that figures do not lie, but daylight saving facts prove that they can certainly evade the question. _Editor-In-Chief _Managing Edit°, Edito, Assistant B M. Jameson, '24 C.
