THE PREXY'S PLEA
With the college year fast fading, concern over
final e aminations, graduation and honor points serve
to perplex the student mind to such an e•tent that )
thoughts of everything else seldom occur Yet, in
the midst of all these conflicting emotions which con-1
statue a veritable last-minute collegiate sesirl, the•
overburdened student ought not disregard Presidents
Hetzel's simple but sincere plea for co-operation In
the ancient sport of 'getting out the sole'
In a request statement addressed To Every Penn,
State Student, the Press emphasizes the necessity of I
co
sering one million favorable votes to get the amend-1
ment approved. Without the aid of the student body
such an end may be hardly attained There is some
thing picturesque, something appealing, something
impressively devout in the action of a college student
pleading the cause of his Alma Alater—sornething
which cannot be duplicated by the most energetic
efforts oh the most shren d politicians
With such latent powers at his disposal, the los al
Penn State student, as Presy Hetzcl suggests, will
have an opportunity to do a great service for his
college Unanimous negligence or indifference might
prove lamentably fatal to the proposed Band Issue,
while thoughful co-operation, ssillingness to serve
and achieve and earnest effort in ads ertising Penn
State and the Bond Issue at emery opportunity, great
or small, may prose the determining 'actors in se
curing the desii ed end
Let a friendly conversation serve as a sales talk
for the College and its need; make Cs cry friend and
relative a sure vote and every acquaintance a promise
Opportunity knocks but once—every five ye,trs Now
is the tune—
I=TII!iIZE2CE I
A cold reception is an event most discouraging
and oftimes fatal to any ambitious enterprise because
it indicates somewhat certainly that,the enterprise
is either unwelcome or unpopular But when the
project, whatever it may be. is reasonably worthy of
a warm reception and receives one that is none too
enthusiastic, then the receiving audience is either
ungrateful or negligent—or, perhaps, unappreciative
Such has been the case of the Old Main Bell, Penn
State's only purely literar) magazine Such was the
case upon its appearance only a few days ago Al
though it was not greeted frigidly, it was not received
with an enthusiasm that would encourage or inspire
greater efforts from future staffs It was not sup
ported with the heartiness that reassures the publish
ers that their project is worthwhile or even practical,
nor was it sought with enough interest and eagerness
to•insure its backers that, their really commendable
product was duly appreciated.
It is discouraging to realize that a magazine su
perior to even tlfat which, two nears ago, was awarded
premier honors in a competition of Pi Delta Epsilon
sponsored magartnes must suffer tmsupported. The
most able faculty critics have sung the praises of the
Old Main Bell and pleaded for its longevity Student
publishers hone toiled long and earnestly. But for
what , For this display of , seeming indifference and
unappreciativeness,
Students may yet rally to aid a worthy cause.
With them lies the poser of dooming this infant to
an early grave, with them lies the power of nurturing
it to growing manhood—a staunch addition to the
Penn State publications family Shall it be life—or
death',
A BIBLE FOR ALL
It's a long, narrow pamphlet, resembling a Metro
politan time-table, but opening ever,so much more
humanly and containing material infinitely more in
teresting It's a bible for all classe+ to carry at all
times where it can be easily consulted in time of doubt
—which is in time of need. It's a leaflet, the contents
of which must be devoured and memorized until it
becomes a living part of every student.
It's a gift to be appreciated as a valuable com
panion for the summer months It's a booklet with a
gospel which must be spread throughout the State
land accepted as one desers ing serious consideration
Its a catalogue resealing, among other things, the
interesting fact that Penn State is treated only one
twelfth as generously as the average State college.
It's a dtction,uy of terms which ought to attain a
familiar place in our vocabulary for the next Si
months; a catechism containing a plea for higher edu
cation, a miniature textbook for practicable argumen
,tation , a question and answei libretto, a !flannel of
egix

Gentlemen.
I've done a lot of pipe smoking
There's hardly a brand or a blend that
I haven't tried out at some time or
But speaking of smoking tobacco
that brings real enjoyment, and never
changes, I want to say that there is
just one tobacco that gives me real
enjoyment m my pipe—Edgeworth.
I have used Edgeworth Ready
Rubbed and Plug Slice for over the
years, 111 all climates and under all
conditions, and I Ilnd it always the
same. It is always mellow and moist,
and its genuine flavor lasts. There is
no bite or parch in Edgeworth, and the
quality, whether you buy it in small
or large quantities, is always perfect.
Thanks to the manufacturers for
their wonderful product, and I hope
that Edgeworth can always be obtain
able by the undersigned.
