it is with deep regret that State
College learned of the death of
Margaret Shevlin, member of the
Class of 1918. Miss Shevlin was
a victim of influenza and died at
East Syracuse, where she was
leaching history.
Miss Shevlin attended and was
graduated
from
the Saratoga
Springs High School. She entered
State College in the fall of 1914,
and during her four years here
was prominent in college activities.
The esteem with whicli her fellow
students regarded her capability
as a leader was shown by the
many offices to which she was
elected. She was president of Newman club, president of PromcContinucd on Page 4
OMICRON NU PAYS
TRIBUTE
Omicron Nu feels very deeply
the loss of one of its alumnae
members, Marion Payne, '17, who
died of influenza on October 10th.
Miss Payne's death occurred at
Herkimer, where she had been
teaching in a vocational school
since her graduation from college.
Her splendid character, her capability and her pleasing personality won for her a place of prominence in many of our college activities, Tn addition to being a
member of Omicron Nu she was a
charter member of Myskania and
was very active in Y. W. C. A.,
being an officer and a member of
the cabinet during her Senior year,
With her going, Omicron Nu
loses the first member in the history of the society.
Captain I-J. D. Rush, who is succeeding Captain E. L. Reed as
commander of the post (State

ARMISTICE IDEAL
News conies from all sources —
aibroad, home training camps, citizen activities — everywhere the
same, that the signing of the armistice has brought forth a decided cessation of war work. It
seems the tendency is to lay off —
to ease up. The soldiers are reported to be thinking now of the
home coming instead of the overseas trip. Citizens are reported to
be failing to buy war savings
stamps and to have stopped payments into the War Chest, Red
Cross, Y., M. C. A and K. of C.
funds,
To be true, this reaction is only
human — and "we're only poor,
weak mortals after all" — but we
have learned through the past
hard months to work and have
forgotten how to rest on our oars.
The spirit, attitude and actions of
the American public have merited
world-wide praise and admiration.
Efficient service has become the
American ideal — and Americans
have lived up to their ideal.
The fact that hostilities have
ceased and that peace is in sight
is. no reason for relinquishing our
ideal. .Beyond any question the
days ahead" are to be the most trying ones since August, 1914. With
reconstruction ahead (he only possible slogan is " Efficient Service."
It is expected that America, who
has suffered least, will sacrifice
•most in the stupendous task, It is left
for America to fight on now—it is
left fo'r her to atone for the two
and a half years of her inactivity
.at the opening of the war. Tier
experience after the Civil War peculiarly fits her for the present
needs. But the work is to be infinitely greater.
This country's position among
world powers is due to the perfect co-operation of its millions of
individuals.
Otherwise,
such
Utopian
transformations
could
never have come. Every person
has saved and served to the limit
and then has saved and served
more. And each individual is going to pick up the battle and fight
as he never has fought before.
Once more each one will take up
the slogan, " Efficient Service,"
and carry on until victory is really
complete and peace rules over
Europe and its forgotten battlefields— Europe a land of rebuilt
homes.
Let us then lake a new hold,
looking constantly toward the
ideal of "Efficient Service."
COME OUT FOR
THE NEWS
In the issue of October 3rd, the
" News " Board Constitution was
printed, together with regulations
governing the appointment of new
members to the editorial board. At
the same time an appeal was made
for new recruits to be added to
this year's staff.
As yet the response has been
slow, due, doubtless, to the long
vacation period. Still, new members are needed. The terms remain the same, and the present
board is anxious to assign " tryouts."

Lost from the second term six recitation days due lo extension of the

It is thought advisable not to attempt to recover these as the only
ways of doing it arc:
Omission of the spring recess.
Omission of the final examinations.
Extension of the college year one
week to June 23.
Or a combination of the three.
We feel that the spring vacation of
one week is a necessity for both the
faculty and students, especially this
year, as the actual teaching work will
have no intermission of any kind
from Jan. 3 to April 16. To omit the
recess would mean the teaching would
continue from Jan. 3 to May 30,
which is too long a period.
The final examinations in June
should not be omitted, especially since
the examinations are omitted in January.
The college year should not he extended to June 23, as this would give
only two weeks' rest before the beginning of the summer session. Moreover, many of the students will be
needed again this year as they were
last ''ear for farm work.
SUMMARY.
The number of recitation days lost
on the year's work due to the epidemic is 28. The number recovered
by reorganization of the college calendar is 17, leaving a loss of 11 days,
5 in the first term and 6 in the second.
