Lewis, College librarian. “One of the greatest mistakes _made in tho erection of college and univer sity library structures in recent years has been the. failure of the builders to provide for future development of tho. institution, which necessitates a corresponding expansion of library facilities,” said Mr. Lewis.. “Plans how under formation for a new Col lego library will provide for future as well as present needs.” .A study of the library'requirements of tho College covering the subjects of faculty and. student needs, curricula and course demands, and collections of library, books and material is now under way; and will.be 'considered by each of the four committees assigned to the librarian said; Dean Charles-W. Stoddart of the School of Liberal Art 3, and William S. Hoffman, College registrar,' are cooperating in compiling this preliminary data.' Seven fundamental aims will be con sidered by tho committees in planning for a new building, according to Mr. Lewis. Fundamentally the groups will plan for.a structure which.will serve the entire faculty and' student body, with a secondary purpose of serving ihe community' of State College and the entire State.’ Satisfactory-facilities for ; reading and research, book storage.and .dis play, and staff : administration, and work; servicet to'branch .librarics-of the various Schools and .departments Noted Mining Book Sent 'To President For Autographing A copy of “D'e Re Metallica,” a fa mous mining and smelting treatise by Agricola, was. located reccntly in the College library and was 'sent *to its' translators, President and.Sts., Hoov er, to be autographed, -acco’r'diTl’g to; Willard P* Lewis,; College‘librarian,... ■ Mr. and.

Mrs. Edith M. Johnson, super visor'of the commons,' has revealed. Twenty gallons of coffee disappear each night, and every day twenty four loaves of bread, each as long as an average person’s arm, go the way of • all dough.. Every time canned vegetables appear on the table, it means there are 'three crates less of said greens -in the store room. '' Ice cream is by far the most popu lar dessert with • tapioca - pudding at the tail end of the list. Lettuce is absolutely the bane of the co-ed’s ex istence, and that’s where the fifty waiters and kitchen workers go them one better.

Genuine Anita Punxsutawney Coal Phone 114 THE PENN STATE COLLEGIAN Around The Corner “Education is emancipation from herd opinion, self mastery, capacity for self-criticism, suspended judg ment, and urbanity,” writes Everett Dean Martin in his book The Meaning of a Liberal Education. Those few who are enrolled in our colleges for edu cational purposes often wonder.to what end they are striving; when con fronted with a definition of education, there is somo basis for entertaining a skeptical attitude toward our present system of mass-education, with its traditions, barriers, and curriculum requirements. A. J. Nock, in his book The Theory of Educatifm in the United. States, says this concerning intelligence: “The person of intelligence is the one who always tends to ‘see things as’ they arc,* the one who never permits his view of things to be directed by con vention, by the hope of advantage, or by irrational- or arbitrary authoritari anism. He allows the current of his consciousness to flow in perfect free dom over any object that may be pre sented to it, uncontrolled by preju dice, prepossession, or formulae.” Is -there anyone who could be so brazen as to say that our present the ory of education is conducive to these ends? If education and the develop ment of intelligence is the end and aim of a college career, then our pres ent system, with its organization and mass theories, is a hopeless failure.— Daily Northwestern. ’ PHI MU ALPHA ELECTIONS (Honorary Haste Fraternity), John H.
