HOUR
SUNDAY
Dr. Richardson Conducts Vespers
The class of '23 entertained about
fifty at social hours between twothirly and six on Sunday afternoon,
The fact that the number of those
who attend these •hours is increasing proves that an enjoyable time is
given them; and the fact that one
of the classes as a whole has assisted in this new attempt proves
that there is a general interest
manifested by the students.
The committee in charge of the
afternoon was Agnes Smith and
Katherine Sauter. The chairman
of the committee for arrangements
was Susan Collier; for invitations,
Clarabell Whitcombe; and for refreshments, Hilda Teft.
At four o'clock vesper service was
conducted by Dr. Leonard W.
Richardson. Following Dr. Richardson's delightful talk, tea was
served in the Green Room. Miss
Edith Wallace and Miss Helen
Faye poured. For the rest of the
afternoon Dr. Hastings gave readings from " Tom Brown's School
Days" and the poem " Rugby
Chapel," by Matthew Arnold.
These were very enjoyable.
The art collection was on exhibition in tihe main hall for the further
enjoyment of those present.
Dean Anna E. Pierce visited the
Skidmorc School of Arts last week
as the guest of Miss Ross, dean of
that college. Willile there Dean

The decoration committee saw to it

POPULARITY
The desire to be popular explains
a multitude of good things and also
a multitude of sins, it is the punch
behind old man Public Opinion.
At the same time it is the evil spirit
that keeps alive such villains as
Neglect of Duty, Extravagance, etc,
Nearly everyone is afflicted with
this desire in a more or less violent
form, yet, like most things coveted,
popularity is the possession of the
few.
Now there are various ways in
which people seek to be popular.
Some try to be different, and to
gain influence by this means. They
develop into "wise guys" and
" s m a r t Alecks." They try to be
superior. They use the slang of today or to-morrow and sneer at
.those who use the slang of last
week. Some of them brag about
the exciting people they know, always using a nickname. As the
New York Tribune says, " The central point is they are, publicly or
secretly, puffed up by the thought
•that they are not as other men."
Generally speaking, the people
who seek popularity do it in a selfish way. It is a selfish motive
that impels them. Yet it is as the
Knickerbocker Press says: "There
is one royal road to popularity
which is plain and yet which few
seem lo find, ft is the path of
personal, vital interest in folk themselves; a willingness to listen to
their tale of woe or of joy; to weep
when they weep, to laugh when
ihey laugh, and do it with a heartiness that can come only with entire
self-forgctfulness.
For everyone
who is willing to efface his own
desire to be the centre of attraction,
there are ten thousand who will
not. To be popular requires a degree of unselfishness that is as rare
as it is charming; to'be interestedly
unselfish is to be immensely popular."
To be popular, then, you must be
one of the " dubs" whom the New
York Tribune defines as " those
livable, friendly, personable folk
who keep the world turning while
the qtiippy intellectuals and the
wise guys and the smart Alcck9
pick at t'heni and sniff."
To bring the matter down to college life, a student who would be
popular must get down off the
pedestal of wisdom once in awhile,
lie must leave the world of books
once in awhile and take part in
student activities. He must even
sacrifice the pleasure of an A or
two in order to get better acquainted with his fellowmcn. This last,
however, is a dangerous remedy,
because the patient is very prone
to swallow the prescription, bottle
and all, and then to no longer have
need for popularity. Ft should be
used in moderation, The fact of
the matter is, however, that education is not merely book learning.
Associations with college professors, classmates, fraternity brothers,
and roommates count a whole lot.
So while one is following the road
to true popularity, he is not necessarily sacrificing education, and he
may be a great help in carrying
on college activities.
At the last two or three basketball games the freshmen have been
conspicious for (heir absence from
their usual place at the far end of
the bleachers. You may have
passed your mid-years, freshmen,—
you may have passed all your
courses at A, but you still are
freshmen, and by no right of college tradition or sophomore rule
arc you to sit with the other classmen. Then, loo, why is it that we
no longer sing " Freshmen, Freshmen, Don't Feel Blue"? It was a
regular part of every game last
year. The freshmen looked for it,
they expected to stand up while il
w.'fs being sung, and other classmen
looked forwarded lo it too. We
are all busy, hut we should never
be loo busy to enforce our college
traditions, and make the frcs'hnien
realize that they arc still freshmen,
and must keep their proper place
at our games.
'23
State College is taking many
forward steps these days, and
everyone has noticed this with increasing pride. However, to steadily progress it is necessary that
no negative, off-setting movements
be made. And all this is just an
introduction to the inquiry, " VVhal
has become of our class rivalry? "
The greater part of this is expected
to be shown by the freshmen and
sophomores, but at the Post Exam
Jubilee the upper classes were the
ones that displayed anything that
resembled spirit. And what has
become of the penalty lists and the
stern sophs marching around timid
frosh? Th ere used to be a rule
that freshmen were to be segregated at basket-ball games. The
member's of '24 have even been
seen coming out of chapel before
the other three classes have departed. Juniors and seniors arc
busy people and have little lime lo
attend to such matters. Anyway,
il is the sacred privilege and duly
of the sophs to see that the frosh
obey rules. This is just a little
reminder, '231
'22
To the Ediior of the " News ":
Students arc just beginning to
realize that Easter is March 27,
and that our so-called Easter vacation starts April S; also that last
year we were held a week longer
in June because of the celebration
of the 75th anniversary of the College, and in compensation for that
week we were given extra time at
Easter. This year, we are being
held over without any increase
Our vacation lasts
whatsoever.
exactly seven days; we arc not
even given the benefit of the weekend beginning Friday, April 1.
Many students are of the opinion
that classes should not be held
Holy Thursday and Good Friday,
because religious observances will
necessitate a great number of absences on these days.
Why do we not return to the
practice of having an Easter vacalioti? Do students want it? Lets
hear some more on the subject.

and entertainments, plays, pageants,
athletic sports and games, folk dancing, swimming for women, anecdotes and toasts for those who have
to make public addresses, a generous list of biographies of famous
women chosen because of the inspiration of their lives, and other
subjects of vital interest to girls
and young women.
A large number of critical annotations are given which will aid
workers in these fields in making
exact 'selections of books for their
own self-improvement, for the use
of those under their care, or to enrich private, public or institutional
libraries.
A consistent use of the help afforded by this compilation cannot
result otherwise than materially to
increase the efficiency and usefulness of the user, Those working to
establish in girls good habits and
high ideals as to health, morals and
work, will find many useful references in each of these fields, and
their work can be made much more
effective if this catalog is used to
select appropriate literature to place
in the hands of the girls and young
women, to rcenforce the advice
given,
A D V A N T A G E S OF
ADVERSITY
Prosperity makes millionaires
and adversity makes men. Every
lash of adversity is a lesson, every
sling a veritable school muster in
the class ul' learning,
Disappointment is I Itu path I
permanency, a silver sp<
th<
school from which llie r
must take his medicine,
We are ail led into dee| wale r,
1101 In drown, bill lo Irani I i swim.
In prosperity, we mingle with
oilier people with their pockets full
of rocks. In adversity we strip
them lo the skin and weigh them
on the naked scales ul' truth.
I doubt if a man can know himself (and this is the greatest knowledge) until he hits a low spot in
life, and from this low spot begins
to climb,
And, here is another hopeful,
helpful thought: In the fiercest lire
of adversity, man forms his firmest
friendship's. And, if adversity can
render no other service, what a
service I
In adversity man is free from
the flatterers and released from the
responsibility of dodging the personal-loan 'borrowers.
just a little trouble aggravates,
hut a lot of trouble teaches a man
to endure — il stirs a man to
struggle out from under,
The violinist does not stretch
the string to break it, but he does
turn the key till the tense cord
will play in concert pilch,
You know it requires a thunderstorm lo clear the atmosphere,
and it often lakes a lot of rain to
wash our decks for decency.
Prosperity deceives, adversity
instructs.
True, I here are men who cannot take medicine without throwing up—their'hands; for adversity
does not agree with all constitutions, lint no man can continue
lo climb while dosing himself on
dollars alone — continue to be
happy and healthy.
One might go to a seven-year
course in the old school of Aristotle, with all his philosophy, but
such a schooling cannot compare
with one shout season in the University of Adversity.
No man can rightfully measure
the meaning and methods of another man until lie has felt the
terrible blows of adversity; then
he knows.
Every big man has had his share
of disappointments, trials and
troubles, but he does not go about
megaphoning these troubles to the
world.
And from these thoughts we
learn this lesson; so called "hard
luck" is bound to hit you, but remember that your successful position in life depends on deeds, not
doubts.
