ti N. Y •. A. 1'0 THE RESCUE

Tbere are !orty-four students attending Glenville .State Teachen College who receive aid f-rom the

nt.~. Y. A. fund. Students enrolled o.n such a ba.s.is are bt~qutred to render a certain amount of service to the -nstitutioll wbeTe they -receive their schooling. · Why -• it thea. that there never seems to be anyone around

·he illltitution other than the faculty to perform the , unU.,ect:ed an"d unforseen duties that arise ?

1

u. when convoeation is being held, there seems to ued for more ventilation, some member of the .

aeultJ is .seen raising a window. U the sun is shin­D.C ia the fa.c:es of some of those presen!, some mem­~r of tile faculty arises and adjusts the shades. li a loar is bDDging. and ir.terfupting t he spe3ker, a mem­te!' of the faculty must close iL At the door, when Wton or belated students a·rrive, theTe is no one t o .oint out unoceupied seats or conduct strangers to hem.

Stage curtains are i.requenUy seen in all sorts o{ -a.ntfed and badly adjusted condition. The flags are - ttea bapbazBTd in arrangement., their standards !re-

uatly leaning at sixes an.d sevens wit.h each other. I.Saembly me.ets but once a week. It seems that it rOuld not r-equire too much effort to give the ferns a airing on that one weekly journey from the base~ 'nt to the stage, and ·ob, the ditfeTence to us!

1 Why are n.ot some of thEse N. Y. A. students de­Wed t o duty in the auditorium on convocation day? fh1 cannot some of them be instructed t o place the tl"'UU, arrange the chairs, curtains and flags and give ltention to other ordinary details? Why not some t aihel" the late comers and be there to greet visitors. tto arrive? WDy cannot there be found students ert and wide. awake enough to SEE when v.;ndows !ed to be opened or closed, shades adjusted, doors !leDed or closed? Certainly students who will make capable, efficient ~hera ought to be able to take. charge of suc.h mat­<n. We. hopC' something can be done about these .,...,

lu.eational institutions , Glenville State Teachers ,uece 1.as continued to keep pace with the times, re.ring, . well-rounded education and specjaJizing in e training -of .teachers. The increased enrollment is year is evidence of the school's usefulness1 its l'ility to sene ancl tts growing popularity. . If there has been any one thing lacking the past w yran it has been suitable donnitory facilities to ke care of those who would like to Uve on the camp­but who have been forced to find rooms elsewhere.

tt with the nev.· dormitory, to be ready f or occu­ncy next fall, this need will be erased. Tbe'present rate for room and board in the Colleg'? nnitbrles is only '16 a ritonth, or less than sixty ota a day for three meals and rooming quarters. 1ilding of a new dormitory means t.11Jlt 120 addition­students are to be given the advantages of these v rata. Then, too, then are other a.dva nt:age.s t o be otrer­in. the new dormitory. There will be a mode rn

THE PROVERBIAL ELEVENTH HOUR

"Oh, I'm so sorry I kept you waiting. I'll try to be on time hereafter." .But, sad to relate, the same student is late again, and again. o~n arriving at the class room or other appointed places at the proverb­ial eleventh hour, or even later. Many well-meaning students are g-.Jilty of such breaches of good faibh and thereby occasion great inconvenience to teachers and associates.

Punctuality is of supreme importance in · modern life. Our complex society could not long surviTe in the absence o!" good faith, punctuality and coopera­t ion. During ou r school yea_rs we learn habits of conduct which greatly influence the remaining years of life, ond the quality of these habits will largely determine the degree of success we will attain.

Occasionally we may have good reasons for being late. but rarely is this the case. Arriving in class ten minutes late ofte n occasions disadvantages. both to the teacher an.::i to ourselves. Aud students who waste many va luable minutes waitiflg on late-comers may be justified in the remark, " you s hould have started sooner.''

TEMPORARY SCHOOL TEACHERS

hOh. I'm just going to teach .school a year or two, until I can ge-t a job," apologizes the yo·ung male ·grad­u ate as he steps out of the c.ollege, his certificate in his hand.

Or the young girl graduate epitomizes her career with !be blithe st..atement, "Just something t;o keep me in dothes un til John and I can afford to get ll)arried."

And th~::se a-re the me.n and women v.•ho teach the children in our primary and secondary sc.hools, who guide young feet in their first paths and shape futurO! destinies.

The teacher's task is both an important and a diffi­cult one--difficul t if well done, important whether well or poorly done. E . A. Cross, in an article on ''Painless Educ:ltion'1 i n the December Atlantic Month· Jy, compar es the doctor and the teacher in their ef­f ect on society. "Like the physician.'' says Dr. Cross, "the teacher is dealing with human m~ttecia) every day of his life-the doctor with body a nd mind, mainly body, the teache.r with mind and body, mind first. The teacher 's su<:cesse-s contribute t o the pe.rinanent well-being and happine!S of the children-and to the pe·rmanent advantage of society. The coroner and the undertaker ofte n dispose of the doctor,s mistakes ; but the mistakes of the teacher are projected into so­ciety a s permanent liabilities or menaces."'

The g rea t difference is thaf" the- doctor can be pin_ned down to his mistake or failure, while the rteacher persists in his malpractice, without censure and with little blame. By his very mediocrity, he in­S'l3Jis himself• permanently as a negative p u_rveyor of knowledg e.

The ·only on.es who r emain (with the -exception of those who intend teaching as a life work ) are the per­sons too poorly equipped to go any further. The poor taacher. remains i n the school .to bui ld, future America ~Y educating 'its youth j the good teacher goes on t:) '

more gloPious professions-becomes a lawyer, a wri­ter, or perhaps a •rbrain-truste r. ' '

We may have million dollar school buildings, w~ may have compulsory and free educ-ation for the ~asses-; but until we realize that t eachers are vitally 1mportnnt to our well-being, that the schoo1room is not a waiting room for ambitious transients or 0

dumping place for human residue., until that time America's yOung will go forth sadly uneducated and un:fit.

Camels have given more people more pleasure than any other cigarette. And Camel smokers are frank in expressing their preference for Camel"s costlier, non·irritating tobaccos. What they say is convincing evidence of Camel's ap· pealing qualities. So now we ask you to make a test. See our money-back offer? You can"t lose!
