DO THE HONORABLE THING.
Meet the Terms of the Contract You Made.
We loathe the idea of beginning the second semester of this
college year and incidentally the second semester in the history
of the "State College N e w s " with the unpleasant business of
" dunning," but since wc arc here to make the paper a success
and since its success depends entirely upon the support it receives
from the students, wc see ourselves compelled to act as necessity
demands. We wish to call attention to the following facts:
When the founding of the " N e w s " was being considered, estimates were made of what sum would have to be charged in order
to make the new paper self-supporting. After careful investigation of conditions we settled upon $1.50 as the sum which would
induce a demand great enough to finance the venture. The subsequent number of subscribers was up to our expectations, and
while our advertising business, owing to strong competition, was
somewhat of a disappointment, yet the outlook on the whole was
nromising and justified our belief that the " State College News "
had come to stay.
, Since last October the paper has been issued regularly on
schedule time. We hope our pride in that fact will be appreciated.
Curious to know how some of the better known college papers
fared during their first years, we recently took the pains to look
into the history of some, and as a result of which wc are glad to
be able to renort that our record so far surpasses that of almost
every paper investigated. The City College " Campus," for instance, during its first year was often over a week late, and often
did not appear at all, This little investigation brought out that
our journal; although it is as yet far from being a finished product.
yet compares verv favorably with the early showing made bv
many a now prominent college sheet. We feel, therefore, that
we are justified in stating that we have kept our faith with our
subscribers.
Last fall some four hundred odd students promised to pay
§i.^o on or before December TSt, in return for a copy of the
" State College News" cverv week during the Collcrcc year.
Stranee to say, over one hundred of those who made such a contract with us have failed to meet its terms. Over one hundred
students have neglected to pav the price of their subscription.
We could write pages about the absolute need of honestv and
trust in business, and the absolute failure of the same without
them. Still we would not be setting forth anything which each
one of these one hundred or more delinquents does not alreadv
know. The trouble here seems to be that most of the neglectful
people do not take anv contract made with us serious!)', because
they have not yet acrmired that proper sense of responsibility
which added years and more experience will bring, we hope.
Tn the fall a definilc budget was made out by us. which called
for a certain number of issues of our paper for this College year.
In making this budget we placed absolute faith in the contract
we had made with four hundred of the students, Three hundred
have done their part. One hundred have failed, If you are one
of this minority, don't you believe with its, that now is the time
to acquire habits that are good and helpful? Get the habit of
paying promptly, (iet the habit of doing the honorable thing,
Gel. the habit of respecting your own word, spoken or written.
Acquire these habits quickly and you will not fail to meet the
terms of the contract you made with us.
LETTER TO EDITOR.
Dear Sir. — Why should the Class of '20 be the only one to
start college traditions and the Freshmen be the only ones to
have the fun of carrying them out? Isn't there something for
each class to do?
Something has occurred to me for the Seniors to do which will
add dignity to our assemblies and be a compliment to the " remaining seated " of the Freshmen. Most Seniors buy caps and
gowns, All of them would if they had a use for them. I propose that the Seniors wear their caps and gowns to chapel and
student assembly after moving-up day and pass out before the
Juniors and Sophomores.
I have Mhcr traditions to be suggested by others. May this
one find favor.

Father Dunney says a Newman Club has been a great need
in Albany for years, there being no distinctive collegiate
body to hold up Roman Catholic ideals, social, educational
and religious.
He said the
State College had been lagging
behind the other great educational institutions in organizing
such clubs, a chain of which
now extends from Maine to
California. At the University
of California, he said, there is a
splendid organization which
founded Newman hall there.
The organizations are international in scope, and at Oxford,
England, there are the Pope's
hall and Hunter Blair's hall,
founded by the Newman Club.
Under the direction of the
Rev. Joseph A. Dunney, supervisor of the schools of the
Roman Catholic Diocese of Albany, and with the approval of
Bishop Thomas F. 'Cusack, the
Newman Club, a religious,
social and literary body, was
organized by students 'at State
College.
The
organization
took place in the College auditorium and more than 175
members, including representatives from all the classes at the
College, were enrolled.
The whole capital district is
represented in the organization, the student body including young men and women
from all the cities and villages
in the vicinity of Albany.
Father Dunney, who addressed
the members after the organization had been perfected, said
that it had long been deemed
advisable to gather these young
men and women in an association through which they might
have the best social, educational and religious advantages
while they are attending the
College, especially those who
come from outside cities and
arc thrown among strangers,
Father Dunney said that in addition to the sanction of Bishop
Cusack the new club also has Editor State College News:

T h a t the present European

that as great men arc produced
by democratic societies as in
monarchical was proven by Dr.
Avery D. Skinner, of the State
Education
Department,
in
s t u d e n t assembly F r i d a y morning'.
Dr. Skinner first discussed the historic background
of the war quite refuting the
idea that the present catastrophe is the result of the assassination of the Austrian Prince
and his consort or the desire to
preserve
'any
humanitarian
aspect of civilization.
Instead,
its causes were traced back to
the Congress of 1815 and the
revolutions of 1848, since which
there have g r o w n up in Europe
two types of nations, the one is
the "'state with a soul," like
Germany, in which the individual is sacrificed to the general
good. T h e other type is that
in which the state exists for the
individual. T h e present struggle is a clash between these
t w o types of g o v e r n m e n t s .
F r o m the geographical point
of view Dr. Skinner called attention to the g r e a t similarity
between the relations existing
between the E u r o p e a n powers
and Africa in 1014 and the relations between those powers and
North America at the time of
the colonial wars. H e pointed
out t h a t if the development
from the steel into the electrical age had not been partially
accomplished I t a l y would not
have entered the war.
ft is
due to electrical g e n e r a t i n g
power of I t a l y ' s short mountain s t r e a m s that, she is now a
m a n u f a c t u r i n g nation and fighting for colonial m a r k e t s .
Although j u s t at present
E n g l a n d has become nearly as
absolute as G e r m a n y this is no
proof t h a t democratic institu-
aulocralic power is needed that
the nation may exert every
ounce of its energy in a crisis,
but when the crisis is passed
the country, it is believed by
many, will* become far more
democratic than ever before.

the Allies and Central Powers

T h e game, which was won by

PROFESSOR YORK ADDRESSES COLLEGE
CLUB.
On Friday, F e b r u a r y 9th,
Professor York addressed College Club.
He spoke of the
value of business training to
college students.
Professor York said that the
day of connmercial education is
slowly dawning.
T h e old
method of self-education by
means of apprenticeship is too
costly and too slow for men of
to-day. Gradually people have
become interested in business
education, and little by little
business schools have developed and courses in typewriting, stenography and bookkeeping have been introduced
into our schools and colleges.
T h e s e courses have a real
educational value and train
the mind in observation, concentration and imagination, as
well as do classical and scientific courses.
T h e teacher needs a business
as well as a classical education,
for it furnishes a practical
knowledge of the ways of the
business world, systematizes
the teacher's habits of work,
and enables him to get better
results and hold higher positions.
