"When you once get the ink in
your blood, you can never get it
out.' Someone once made this
statement, perhaps in slightly
differeht language, but with the
same meaning.
Anyone who has had any ex
perience in journalism will agree
that this is true, figuratively if
not literally.
There is something about the
work that fascinates you so that
once you start, you get more and
morn interested, and you must
keep on. You are not happy un
less you are out chasing an as
signment or writing and rewrit
ing your 'story' so that your edi
tor will approve it. Later, you
learn that art of head-line writ
ing which is like working cross
word puzzles, only more so.
If you show interest in your
work, and stick to it faithfully.
yoll will have a good chance of
advancing to be a junior, or per
haps eventually, the Senior Edi
tor.
The call for Freshman and
Sophomore girl candidates is out.
It is a call that is well worth an
swering.
•
Every girl wants to engage in
some sort of extra-curricular ac
tivity. She wants something
which will be a benefit to her and
to the school and is at the same
time not monotonous or common
place.
Every week she is sent out to
interview different persons about
different subjects. In this way
she addS to her knowledge of
Campus life and grows to know
the people about the Campus
and also she is doing something
for the College just as much as
if she were playing on an athlet
ic team.
And so all you Freshmen and
Sophomore girls who are looking
for an interesting, beneficial ac
tivity—come out for the Colleg
ian and soon you will, like as,
have the 'lnk in your blood' so
much that you can't be content
ed without it.

And Begin New Rules
"Hey, frosh. how about that lip.'
stick" Don't emu know the rules?"
Such a question is only answered by
the facial expression registered by
the froth as she wipes the offending
color off her lips and walks hurriedly

qualified to make them feel their po
sition as lowly frosh.
In addition to the wearing of the
green, the freshmen must do away
with all cosmetics and for a period
of three weeks display the counten
ance nith which Nature endorsed
them. They must carry stamps to
sell to upperclassmen; must run er
rands and carry their freshman ht
tiles at all times.
