Have YoLi . ;Got Time
To: Waste'.'66,Tinie?'.
Time is a funny thing. - It ls•rneasureable and yet elusive. Many
,
writers and poets have 'used , time as a theme for their work:
A magazine uses Time ior'ite title..."-.;.

Latin students learn as• one

Song writers put themselves .into.
the higher income brackets—by)
selling the public songs i.abbilt
time, how it flies, 'how if:•draks,
how long it seems, how shore it
is. ..•
Of all these people, no; .one:
knows more about time than the'
college student. Time for colle
giates is generally made up ..Of
short spaces into which • tfley
crowd, a multi-million things to
do.
Short Breakfast
Time is never so short 'as 'it is
between bed-time and morning.
In fact this time passes so quickly
that some students feel they .are
required to sleep over-time. •
Breakfast time is short. Min
utes between breakfast for those
who make it—and an eight o'clock
class go by as fast as greased
lightning.
Time is elastic. It can stretch
or-shrink itself according to the
situation. Much as you try dur
ing a bluebook to stretch th e
minutes it just won't -work. But
try speeding up the hour duting
a dull lecture. That's when the
clock seems to stop. The hands
creep over its face. It is then that
minutes seem like hours.
Unusual Qualities
Time is long between vacations
and weekends, but very short
during them.
People have . attributed many
unusual qualities to time. It can
not be seen, nor touched, and yet
it "hangs heavy." "Time will
tell," "time marches on," "time
waits for no man." A songwriter
even found "time on my hands."
Time "cannot be stopped, but
this treatise on it can. So it will
be. Stop.

appreciate this very real and un
selfish support for our program
because all of us in the Christian
Association are convinced that the
chapel and Christian Association
are integral to higher education.
The chapel is the voice of the
College and the Christian Asso
ciation is the practicum for re
ligious thought! This gift will
make it possible for us to do
many things which hitherto have
not' been ,possible."
In commenting on the gift,
Irene Jeffress, president of the
Association said: "It is with a
great deal of humility and ap
preciation that we accept this
gift from a friend who has such
faith in our group."

According to Goris, many people
in Belgium say, "As long as there
is grass in France, there will be
cigarettes in Belgium."
Compares Entertainment
"That Turkish "tobacco is the
best in the world is evidenced by
the fact that United States cigar
ettes are • made front it," Eren
said. However, he told us that he
does not smoke. Turkish figs and
grapes are also among the best
in the world. "In Turkey, men
usually give girl friends sweaters
and scarves." Eren said.
The Belgian thought that Amer
icans devote a lot of energy to
entertainment, while in Europe
entertainment is much quieter.
In Turkey, there is more of the
old flavor of inter-family rela
tionship. Eren said. However, he

In sports, Turks do not like
