Union Now With Britain—by Clar-
ence K. Streit
World conditions have changed
drastically since “Union Now” was
sent to the Clubs in the spring in-
stallment of 1939. Recognizing this,
Mr. Streit has adapted his ideas, al-
though basically they remain the
same, to meet these changed condi-
tions and in this new book has em-
phasized union of the British Com-
monwealth and the nited States. He
offers interesting material for dis-
cussion and an incentive to contrast
his proposal with that of the plan
for hemisphere solidarity advocated
by the Pan American movement.

The students of Weatherford
College will be allowed their first holi-
days of the year beginning November
27 and ending November 30. The
Thanksgiving Holidays are the only
break in the course of school routine
until the Christmas Holidays.
The students this year are allow-
ed more time off on Thanksgiving Hol-
iday than last year. The holidays last-
ed only three days last year while the
students' are permitted four ays rest
dthis year.
The freshmen this year are more
anxious this year for holidays than last
years, since there are many more of
them. The freshmen seem to think
that they should be allowed to rest up
from the wear and tear of college for
more than four days but this is the
only reason they give.
The Thanksgiving holidays will
be longer than is allowed in larger col-
leges an dshould be accepted gladly by
the student body as a whole.
The Reconstruction of World Trade
—by J. B. Condliffe
Adapted to the needs of the ser-
ious student of economics, this book
is concerned with “the barriers to
world trade that may be counted as
a cause of the present war and that
remain to be dealt with when peace
comes”. It recognizes the funda-
mental conflict in the modern world
between political and economic for-
ces and presents clearly the issues
that must be faced in any effective
political and economic reconstruc-
tion after the war. It furnishes in-
exhaustible material for the imme-
diate study of this all important
subject and will figure permanently
as a book of reference in all the IRC
libraries.

As was the custom in the past, the
temporary history. And it is only by
such a study that we can prophesy
the world events in the near future.
There is an t. R. C. bookshelf in
the library. Most of the publications
are books, bound and printed in at-
tractive styles and written to be
understood by everyone; however,
there are some pamphlets which
are so short as to be easily read at
one sitting. Following is a list of the
new books with a description of
each:
Australia and The United States—
by Fred Alexander
The author of this book has re-
cently returned to Australia after
eelven months spent in different
parts ot fhe United States. The Fac-
ulty Adviser o fuor IRC at the ni-
versity of Western Australia has
written that Dr. Alexander is again
with them and planning to speak
before the Club. If he speaks as he
writes he must be assured of at-
tentive audiences. His book is in-
formal in style, serious and authori-
tative, and deals with a country
about which we Americans, and oth-
er peoples, as well, know all too lit-
tle.
ry has been receiving some new
books recently. Some 350 books,
old and new have been placed on
the shelves since the library moved
into the new building. Everyone is
cordially invited to see the display
of new books on the shelves. With,

For What Do We Fight?—by Nor-
man Angell
Although bearing the marks of its
date of publication before France
fell and before the world in view of
the failure of the blitzkrieg had set-
tled down to the tragedy of a long
war, this bok contains so much that
is fundamental and productive of
thought, it seemed wise to secure the?
limited supply that was still avail-
able and send it to as great a number
as possible of the IRC’s. It is writ-
ten in Sir Norman Angell's well-
known terse and convincing style.

In this book we are dealing with
American defense as it relates not
only to the United States but to all
the Americas. This includes an in-

countries to the south and discuesses
very frankly the pros and cons of
effective joint action. It is the third

IN Weatherford College men are
plentiful. Strong, handsome, and rich
men—all doing and dying for dear old
W. C. There are dumb men and bright
ones, ugly ones and handsome, rich
and poor, weak and strong, happy and
sad; yet all constantly hoping for a
kind word from some young lady. Alas!
poor souls! Ne’er a word of encourage-
ment nor a coy greeting do some re-
ceive although there are others who
seem to have the better part of the
feminine student body on a string. This
of course, is the strong-of-back, weak-
of-mind, rich-but-handsome type.
Well, you ask, what are the caus-
es and ways of correcting this pitiful
condition. The causes are a little diffi-
cult to determine, but the ways of bet- .
tering the melancholy state of these W.
C. lads is quite simple. Personally, I
can’t understand what attraction thos.
fellows with the marvelous physiques,
handsome faces, and rolls of bills have
for the opposite sex; but that is the wat-
it happens. Then there is an outside
force which is enticing our little girls;
soldiers wiht uniforms (mostly the
uniforms). This is truly a lamentable
fact, but it is true.
I am sure that the fair ladies do
not realize that they are instrumental
in breaking down the moral of our
school. They will be sorry when they
discover what a mistake they are mak-
ing and they will certainly want to
correct it. Girls, that is very simple in-
deed. You would actually be surprised
how much a friendly smile would help
a “feller”, especially a freshman that
hasn’t been home in a month. Don’t li-
mit your cheery greetings just to those
whom you know well, but include ev-
eryone in that friendly circle. It will
keep that W. C. spirit burning brighter
and longer.
The United States and Japan’s New
Order—by William C. Johnstone,
Jr.
Through this book we move up1
from the southern Pacific area to
the very centre of the Orient. First
published in the spring, it has now
appeared in a second edition which
is the one sent in this installment
It is therefore up to date insofar as
that is possible in a printed book
when world conditions are chang-
ing almost hour by hour. It deals
in detail with the rights and inter-
ests of the United States in respect
to the conflict in China and discus-
ses the possibilities of a constructive
Far Eastern policy. Delegates who
attended the Southeast IRC Confer-
ence held at Tallahassee last spring
will remember Dr. Johnstone as one
of the Carnegie speakers.

Neal Russell and Frances Hart An-
derson; vocal numbers were given
by Joyce Jones, Alta King and Sa-
rah Lillian Kinsley. Mr. Lamar
Cooper, Miss Nona Akard gave a
piano duet, followed by P. W.
Chandler with a violin solo.
Dr. G. C. Boswell, past president
of Weatherford College turned the
first dirt last May 26, 1940, for the
site of the library. Since the break-
ing of the grounds the NYA boys
have been working on the building
and finished it only last summer.
The library staff, however, has been
busy moving the books from the
former library in the main building
to the new one.
During the past year the NYA
boys have worked on the building
over one hundred boys have been
employed under the direction and
supervision of A. B. Carson, H. B.
Mahon and William W. Paul. The
NYA boys have done all the work
from digging ditches to laying brick,
and are now on their way learning
their respective trades at other plac-
es. The NYA boys are to be com-
mended for their excellent work for
which they received $22.00 per
month.
The library is one of the most
modern buildings in Weatherford,
and should go far in aiding the de-
THERE is a deplorable situation
which exists in our dear college—a si-
tuation which we detest but one which
can be remedied to a certain extent.
Cheating on quizes and copying some-
one else’s work are two of the lowest
things in my opinion that a student can
stoop to, but from what I have seena
there has been a great deal of this kin8
of work going on around here. Where
- is our honor, students? Are these the
qualities which further the develop-
ment of Christian character?
The students who indulge in this
petty theft do not gain anything; in
fact, they lose, hurt themselves. They
pay their good money for an educa-
tion, and then waste their money and
another person’s time by using his
ideas which will not do the dishonest
student the slightest good. The stu-
dent might not mind in the least wast-
ing his money or annoying someone
else, but it seems to me that he should
have a higher sense of honor than to
take something which does not belong
to him in that sneaky sort of fashion
by which he thinks he is putting some-
thing over on the teacher. There is
nothing to gain and everything to lose;
he cannot win because it just does not
pay to cheat.
We can stop this unwanted prac-
tice, students, if all those who have
been cooperating with those cheaters
so nicely will just refuse to cooperate
anymore. We can’ let this go on under
our very noses and half-heartedly op-
pose it. Where is our honor? Let’s
fight this lowly “racket”.

With National Book Week begin- . -
ning November 2, the college libra- speaker Wi answer questions asked
THE current trend in modern
youth of college age seems to be turn-
ing toward the idea of getting a job in-
stead of attending school. This change
of opinion is undoubtedly due to the
defense work that is being carried on
on such a huge scale. I realize of course
that it would be rather difficult for
some under ordinary circumstances,
because of financial reasons, to attend
college. In this case power to the ones
who are able to secure one of these po-
sitions.
If veryone would only realize that
when this boom and war are over
there is going to be a great demand for
leaders that will be needed because of
an inevitable depression that is going
to follow. Men and women with a good
education will have a chance to sur-
vive this appalling situation.
I hope this will aquire a second
thought from you if you are one of the
countless youth that are—everyday—
quitting college for a job that can be
of little use when the brains are need-
ed.
So chin up college youth, some-
day in the not too distant future you
will be glad you stayed with it.
Against This Torrent—by Edward
Mead Earle
This is an unofficial reply to Anne
Lindbergh’s “The Wave of the Fu-
ture” which has been so widely read
as a best seller that it must be fa-
miliar to Club members everywhere.
The author does not hesitate to give
forceful expression to his views,
which he supports with sane and
straightforward arguments. It is de-
scribed by the publishers as “A
Source Book for Americanism”.
Well Folks, that long-awaited
event Homecoming, has come and
gone leaving many happy memories
and sad partings.
For instance:
The new diamond that Sarah Lil-
lian is wearing means congratula-
tions to Ralph Hall and S. L.
This Nelson-Allison case seems to
be in full swing.
Nelda was all smiles this week
end. Could it be that her last year’s
romance is still thriving. We surely
were glad to see Ervin.
For some reason our Homecoming
Host was neglected by our Hostess
when a certain ex from E. T. S. T.
C. arrived. That “flame” does still
burn doesn’t it, Cooper? Too bad,
Frank!
Homecoming meant something
extra to a freshman this year. Eve-
lyn McGraw’s visitor from Benja-
min created much excitement.

sey are seen together a lot lately.
