STUDENT ASSEMBLY
Tuesday
morning at 9
o'clock, a special student assembly was held 'for the purpose of bringing the general
student body into action along
lines needing immediate attention. Now that the basketball
season is to open the first week
in December, it is high time we
considered the matter of cheering at the games. At a recent
meeting of Myskahia, three
men were nominated to run for
cheer-leader — Merrill Sauerbrci, Lawrence McMahon, Kdward Springman.
A vote by ballot was taken,
after the withdrawal of Mr.
Fpringman, Results show that
On Friday, November sixteenth, the student body listened to a stirring address by
Prof. Rislcy on the subject
"Americanism."
Prof. Risley began with the
oft-repeated but as yet far
from realized statement, that
we are at war. This fact has
been borne in upon us as we
have seen the streets of this
very city crowded with men
leaving for service. To the intelligent mind the question
must occur, " Why is it worth
lighting for?" In the asking
and answering of this epiestion
there is no disloyalty, but only
a strengthening of the faith we
have. The past answers this
question for the historian, since
he deals in the past. For him
the examples of the men who
fought in the Civil war are
enough to cause him to answer
that it is worth fighting to keep
what these men died for.
In the past, we, as a nation
have much neglected the traits
of Americanism. The trails of
other countries have interested
us to the diminishment of our
own development. We haye
thought we had nothing worth
the fight to maintain. Our
schools have thought that citizenship was not Worth cultivating. They have often neglected to emphasize the good
side of men and politics, and
have sent students forth aghast
with knowledge of public vice
instead of aglow with surety of
the victory of virtue.
The
schools have often
taught
American history from a biased
viewpoint.
Even abroad we
have disgraced our citizenship
by exposing our worst side. In
foreign lands we are known as
curious,
rudely
provincial,
boastful of our political corruption, blustering, without spirit.
It is not to be wondered that
we are considered unable to
fight, pacifists by nature rather
than choice.
But there are positive American traits decidedly worth cultivating. First, consider our
boundless energy — that of a
young people, We have, indeed, made many mistakes due
to this energy. But we are a
pioneer nation, and our pioneer
mistakes will be corrected by
pioneer common-sense. A second trait is our sure belief in
the natural rights of man. A

again. They are willing to pay
the price. The suffering all of
these great people endure, is
endured not alone for France
but for civilization. Many of
the students present, examined
and translated some of the
signs which the Germans had
posted in Allied territory,
which has since been evacuated. One of these was in regard to the execution of Edith
Cavcll and her colleagues.
Many of the girls asked Miss
Arnold wdiat they could do that
would be of service. She told
them of the dire need for surgical dressings, which can be, and
are being made right here in
the Red Cross sewing room in
college. The need for surgical
dressings is constant,— for in
many instances wounds are so
large and of such area that
dozens of gauze sponges are
used at each dressing, and these
wounds have to be dressed
three and four times a day.
Anyone hearing Miss Arnold
talk, could not help vowing to
him or herself, to spend every
spare moment down in that little sewing room in the lower
hall, making surgical dressings
for the Red Cross. It takes a
person who has been " over
there " to bring home to us the
importance of even so humble
a service as making surgical
dressings.

RESIGNATION
The State College " News " board has received the resignation
of Miss Lillian Magilton, senior editor.
•'"-'.
S. C. T.!
Now that the cheerleader has been elected it is the duty of
every student to support him and the team. Learn the songs
and yells, come to practice, and yell your heads off at .the games!
State College has been criticised for its lack of college" spirit.
Now is the time to remedy this. The team is your team, and
it is up to you to back them. The best way to do this is to
attend every game, get on the cheering section, and cheer!
Because of the number of girls in State College there must be
quite a little singing at the games in the place of the cheers of
other colleges. State College needs some new snappy songs
with a lot of " pep " and swing. Many of us remember the songs
we used in high school. Write them over with State College
words and hand them in. There are several snappy popular
•songs such as, " Over There," to which college words can easily
be written. Get to work and let us have a good collection of
songs! • Then learn your alma mater. Be able to sing it without
having to look in a book. At other colleges it is the first thing
freshmen learn and the last thing the alumni forget! Don't
criticise the team ! They have practiced every night until late
and arc doing their best. They are playing against colleges that
have over a thousand men from which to select a team, and need
encouragement instead of criticism. Be good losers! Anyone
can yell and shout when the team is ahead. It is when they are
against a faster team that the boys need your help. Come out!
And — win or lose — back your team!
His head was bowed upon his breast, his tail between his legs.
A look of shame was on his face, the sparks dripped from his
eyes;
He had sent his resignation to the throne up in the skies.
" I'm down and out," the Devil said — He said it with a sob,
" There are others that outclass me, and I want to quit the job.
Hell isn't in it with that land that lies along the Rhine.
I'm old and out of date and therefore, T resign.
One Krupp, munition maker, with his bloody shot and shell,
Knows more about damnation than all the imps of Hell.
Give my job to Kaiser Bill or to Ferdinand the Tzar,
Or to the Sultan Abdul Hatnid, or some such man of war,
I hate to leave the old home, the spot I love so well,
Out I feel that I'm not up-to-date in the art of running Hell,"
And the Devil spat a squirt of steam at a brimstone .bumblebee
And muttered, " I'm outclassed by the Holienzolfern Deviltry,"

BRING FIVE CENTS TO CHAPEL FRIDAY MORNING
Last spring when President Wilson's call for volunteers
stripped State College of nearly all of its men, everyone called
the institution the """'quietest female seminary in _ existence,"
Since then more men have gone to camp, From time to time
more will go. Those who have gone were prominent in the
different student activities — pajier, athletics, dramatics, class
and various clubs. They have done much for this college. They
arc doing more now! What have we as a college done for them
since they have been in the service? We have called them our
honor men, we have read and published an honor roll, but have
we shown them any concrete evidence of this honor? Do we
want to? We do! Then let us bear in mind our desire to do
something for them and change our desire into action, and
Bring that nickel to chapel Friday morning!
The following resolutions were adopted by the Sophomore
class on Friday, November 9, 1917:
Whereas, the Almighty in Mis infinite" wisdom has seen fit to

A suggestion which everyone might adopt is that we
stop calling the boys " Sammies." They dislike the nickname and won't answer to it,
One can hardly blame them for
wanting to be called just what
they are,—" Yankees."
A most valuable hint was
this:
" For goodness' sake
