DECEMBER S. 1 i‘22 News Eid-or ih;s i.su; Tin: worth or a stcdent A collc-ge education. bc-sidee supplying a person with the essen tials of a successful post graduate life, is a cloak that covers a multi tude O! sins. It is blamed for all that a student does, all that he has not done, all that he will du and all that he may do. It is an extreme ly handv term to describe the source of all acts. If a senator’s grand father should die irom drinking illicit beverage, the college educa tion would be charged with the deed because it was a college student that first dreamed of alcohol which was placed in the concoction. But there are countless attributes, blameless in nature, which are born and have their being on the college campus. The perusal of classics, the support of the teams, the conception of fair play, and the ability to enjoy social intercourse with fellow creatures are but a few of the worthy virtues acquired at college. There is one other which stands out prominently as the greatest of the great,—unswerving loyalty to the Alma Mater. Since tie founding of Penn State, it has been conclusively proved that these qualities are inherent in Penn State students to a marked degree. Since the beginning of the two million dollar campaign this year, manv notable instances nave served to prove the devotion oTthe student hody. It seems that the acid test is yet to be endured. President Thomas has asked the students to give their spare time during the holiday recess to the promotion of the campaign. It is a case of asking the student to throw his zeal and energy into the balance of success that the outcome will be insured in a decisive man ner before the meeting of the State Legislature in the spring. The call has been issued. • A series of three meetings have been held by the campaign of ficials for the purpose of acquainting the ruture canvassers with the principles of salesmanship. Valuable talks have been given, but the audience has been discouiagingiv small. This, however, was no doubt due to the number ol quizzes that have been given during the past week and which demand the entire time of the average student. It is to be hoped that the meeting tonight will be betterUattended. President Thomas will speak on the campaign and pamphlets will be issued at the door. The meeting will be a summary of what has gone before and it will crystallize the progress, the needs, and the prospects of the campaign in a way that is sure to prove of value. Every fraternity and boarding house has been asked to announce this meeting and to urge a large attendance. Posters have been placed about the town. Here is the chance to heed the call. As in the days of 'Ol. the answer is appropriate to the occasion. “We are coining. Prexy Thomas, thirty hundred strong.” Chief among the welfare organizations on the campus is the local branch of the Y. M. C. A., which is soliciting a six dollar pledge from each student at the present time. The drive that is being run is the only means which "the Red Triangle” can use for obtaining funds. If they are to continue their good work, financial support must be given. There are several reasons why the "Y” can seek student aid. It is a student organization on the campus, controlled by the representatives of the student body, and used for undergraduate welfare. The student cabinet is elected annually and is truly repre sentative of the campus. This body decides on the policies of the organization, is in charge of all expenditures, and is duly recognized by the college. The President of the Cabinet is a member of Student Council. This year, the Cabinet hopes to extend its work to foreign countries, particularly Russia, where the need for food and clothing is great in the colleges and universities. Through the Hoover Relief Commission and at a minimum of cost, the student body of a Russian institution-can be helped in their struggles for an education. Also, the Y. M. C. A. is entirely dependent on the generosity of the student body for funds to carry on its work on the campus and abroad. If this is not forthcoming, its work will be hampered greatly and may even be discontinued in some instances. The publication of the freshman handbooks, lectures, free entertainments, the use of magazines and newspapers at “the hut”, deputation' trips,—these can not continue unless the drive is successful. There are few students at the college who have not enjoyed one or more of these. The hand books. especially, have become practically a necessity. The college authorities have realized the importance of the “Y” campaign and have designated it as the only other campaign for financial support that is to be allowed at the college this year. Presi dent Thomas and Coach Bczdck have endorsed this plan. Prominent members of the student body of this year and previous years have expressed the desire that the students will not forget the “Y". As Mr. E. 1-. Overdorr '22 has said, “the student’s duty is plain. It is up to him 'to keep the home fires burning’ ”. HUY A “NICKLE’S" WORTH Starting today and continuing until Christmas recess, the women students or the college will be seen about town selling Christ mas Seals. These same little stickers will also be on sale in many State College stores. It has been stated that, should every person in the United States buy five seals, the National Tuberculosis Association would accomplish its aim to sell five hundred million stamps during this holiday season. We cannot but urge that the students of the Pennsylvania State College buy at least their quota of stamps to aid in the fight against the great "White Plague.” And when the stud ents realize the importance of this work in alleviating indescribable suffering and in promoting physical welfare and happiness, we feel that they will buy many times more than the five little seals. These insignificant-looking little Christmas seals selling at a penny each might justly be described as the greatest little life sav ers that the country has ever known. Since 1907, when one visionary Fit'- -itv Alt'fmu. an-1 Fri<-mi: .C:'TltUOii Marvitf- H it M-.C lid}'* THE “Y” woman conceived the- idea of selling these stamps to aid in a local pAMAI OPV Tfl Sght against tuberculosis, the movement has grown by leaps and * .OIUUGWIO IU bounds. Twenty million dollars have been realized from the sale of ENTER JUDGING CONTEST one billion one hundred million Christmas Seals and an incalculable service has performed for the sake of humanity. The death rate from tuberculosis is so much lower than it was twentv vears ago that there is now hope that the dreaded disease may be wiped out entirely. In Pennsylvania alone, one of the states suffering most irom the plague, the toll of deaths has been cut in half in the last ten years Hi. .'l.liif; FT A.-.-j.-taM K-l.t The sale of these Christmas seals has done more than any other thing to educate the people of America against tuberculosis. Twelve hundred state and local anti-tubercular bodies are now in operation the year-round. The small stamps have made it possible to operate reven hundred sanitoria with a bed capacity of sixty-thousand. Sev eral thousand open-air schools and fresh-air classes arc now conduct ed and ten thousand public health nurses are on the field, one third of these devoting their time to anti-tubercular work. iV u\ jjr.-th; -n ’ Jr.. "2- •~,t .;t t-Mlei;-; in The community about State College will benefit directly front the local sale of seals since all money raised here will stay right here to fight tuberculosis in the Nittanv Valley. Your duty to buy at least a nickle s worth of Christmas Seals is best expressed by the great Christy Mathewson, now in the Adirondacks where, after a long fight, he is successfully resisting the inroads of the disease. "Matty" says. "Tuberculosis is no respector of persons! Your dearest relative or friend may contract the disease today.” "Do your bit” by buying Christmas Seals today, thereby helping to destrov this terrible “WHITE PLAGUE”. _C. B.

The work is di ided into two terms of four weeks •ath and includes general farming, animal production, horticulture, poul try production and dairy manufac ture. Numerous inquiries have been i ••ming Into the dairy office concern ing the manufacturing course offered.
