The liar is on Penn State stickers, outcast of blue and white decorations im the past three years, took ads antage ot the summer recess to maneus er an effective and noticeable comeback on the campus. Disdainfully iegaided as a means ot cheap advertising, false pude. shallow show, the sticker was officially banned horn use on coats, shekels and baggage in 1925. At that time the obvious inference accompanying the regulation hinted at the undesirability of using them in any i espect. With the advent of the past summer SCSSIOIL students, whether or not they were aware of the fact, took advantage of a technicality, an made gnat° statement of the rule, and decorated their automobiles with the outcast stickers in a most ungiacelul manner With the convening oi Stud ent Council last Tuesday, the loophole was swiftly sealed when that organization decided to modify the rule so as to mohibit the use of stickers for any pm pose whatex er. That is as it should be Stickers must go. Car ow ners and other Violators of the regulation must dispose of the paper pennant immediately account for then• refusal Tribunal will try all cases and deal severely with guilty persons regard less of their class or standing. The rule applies to all students and must be obeyed by all student, Nothing could be plainer. RUSHEES. BEFORE YOU LEAP- Today marks the opening of the second silence period. Absolute silence is the ordei. There can be .no compromise of whispering, indirect corn ,mu meatier, sub-rook staategy , * Alien orms 'ot dilly dally.. Only unanimous abidance by the rules 'ot the well-knoWn code will assure those who ate playing fairly that they ale under no disadvan tage; and no more harmonious feeling could be desned than the resultant good-will and general satisfaction. eshnien can render a valuable service to the Intertrateunty Council by discouraging any un derhand methods which may be attempted by a would-be violator. They can rendei to themselves a service met more saledile by considering every possible bid With all due seriousness. To repeat formeliy stated beliefs. athletic prestige ot a Ira teinity should carry %%eight with the year ling customer, extra-curricular piommence of .i group should matter little mole. Fraternity, the is 01 Id Itself, is the main and vital issue ot consul ation. Adaptability, human appeal, cordiality, companionship—all should outweigh the two for mer chai actei s both individually and collectively Boldly contradicting the belief of many who feel that freshmen can adapt themselves to any irate' nay gloms, stand many pathetic examples, not easily mentioned, of misplaced brethern. Pledge-breaking is, of course, possible but embar iassing and lout years of hypoci isy, of superficial affection and companionship glow upon an impres sionable youth as thorns upon a bush, a signal of danger, unfriendliness, defiance. The time for making the final decision is not distant. Only a day remains. Consult impartial friends, faculty members, outsiders, so that you may enjoy each succeeding meal as you will enjoy Satin day es emng's dinner. SO LITTLE MEANS SO MUCH Impending financial ruin, some one has said, has been the motive for more suicides than any other cause. Loss of material possessions implies the complete indure of the means of supplying the physical wants of man. The human is most stiong ly affected when his existence is threatened. 'fry, then, to imagine the distressing predicament of nearly one-halt million people when their entire means of maintaining a livelihood was totally cut oft h a sudden la irk of the elements.

In order to carry on their colossal task of alle‘iating the suit - wing of these unfortunate vic tims, the Red Class needs money.
