EDITORIALS, OR EDITORIALS?
Were we to attempt a criticism of the typical American daily newspaper, we believe the following remarks would come near to representing our sentiments.
Too often editoria ls are so colored by prejudice, bias, or personal feelings that they fail to stimulate clear thinking among readers. The first aim of every writer who place-' honor above price should be that of molding constructive public opinion. Individually we may not accomplish much, but if we put on the armor of truth, fair play, tolerance and fairness, we shall win others to our cause. Then, like the driving force of a mighty river which gathers its strength from thousands of tinv streams, the multiplied weight of mass opinion will lift mankind one step higher in the strug-
- gle for social justice. It is easy to become impatient over delay in the accom
plishment of needed reforms, but mankind moves slowly toward a perfect society. Seventy-five years ago human slavery was tolerated by a people who would have given their lives rather than surrender their own precious liberty.
It will be well to remember then, that change, reform, and the realization of an ideal society is a s low process which can move no faster thail the evolution of mankind loa higher level of perfection.
It will be well to remember that a littl e thinking and less talking will often work wonders.-Otis Rexroad .
ALUMNI! ON TO JACKSON'S MilL Persons in charge .of :.lumni activities this year have taken
a step in the right direction. This week, Friday to be exact, a ll College alumni are in
vited to meet at Jackson's Mill f or an afternoon and evening of entertainment. Whether or not we will a ll be t here remains to be seen, but certain it is that those who do not go will be passing up a splendid opportunity to r enew old acquaintances and to become college students once again.
Hearing some close fri~nd, some roommate, perhaps, recall a few of those happy experiences at Glenville State Teachers College is worth an afternoon ~~~ any picnic grounds.
Alumni, the Mercury takes this opportunity to urge you to be there.
-------------0-------------0H, FOR A COLD DRINK!
Wishing for a good cold drink of water is an oft repeated ., campus lament. But th ere isn't any good cold water on the , campus. In fact. there isn't any of any kind in any building _used for classrooms except in Administration Hall. And the
, water there can hardly be called cold. There is no drinking water in the library. Neither is
there any in t he gymnasium. Students who take phys.ical exercises on warm days get thirsty. When they spend the afternoons working in the library, they do nol like to waste time coming down to Administration Hall to get a drink o:f water.
Could fountains be installed without too much expense? When they are, life will be much more pleasant for the students here.-De.nzil Garrett.
CAMPUS FRATERNITIES? Why don't we have fraternities on the campus? Tha t.
question po-ps up many times. We have heard it suggested that the faculty set the pace.
If we want a fraternity and are w illing to put forth enough effort, we might get one. The blame for not having INCh an organization does not rest on the faculty. We, the students, are at fault.
One reason given for the non-existence of fraternities on the campus is a lack of money. Any fraternity, of coua·se, to be successful must be s~lf-supporting. How do we know it would not be so when we haven't tried it?
Let us do a little thinking, a little planning, and then decide whether ~r not we want a fraternity.
We are not saying we should have one; neither are we convinced we should not have one. We are just tired oi bearing that worn-out expressi~n--"Why don't we have 'fraternities here? Other schools do."--Dolores Curry.
