By Clifford Nelson
The aim of a true education should
be four-fold: One must be fully devel-
oped mentally; one must be fully de-
veloped socially; one must specialize
in one line of work; and last one
must have a good moral character.
Having listed these necessities start-
ing with the second In importance
ilrsl and the most Important second
1 can now emphasize more the neces-
sity of one having both a good moral
chat acter and a fully developed mind.
When I say that one should be fully
developed mentally I do not mean
that" one would have to be a univer-
sity graduate. When wc attempt to
compute with people of higher educa-
tion we easily lecognlze the advan-
tage they hold over us. A person
with enough knowledge of facts prin-
ciples and rules to enable him to solve
any kind of problem that confronts
him can know that' he is fully devel-
oped mentally that he Is able to fol-

GENERAL CAMPUS SENTIMENT
Fellow Students and Faculty: The problems confronting
America today almost baffling in their complexity and duration
are testing as never before the intelligence of every individual in
this country ; in this world. The responsibility for their success-
ful solution depends solely upon the vision and wi-idom of trained
disciplined minds. In solving the problems no group of people
must bear a greater share of responsibility than the faculties and
students of our colleges. United the faculties and students should
strive to give their associates a dispassionate discriminating and
intelligent understanding of society's accumulated wisdom and
experience. The great need of todav is for m Inmr .-mil il.m re
spective derived from history and experience in order that we may
have a just appraisal of present values and be able to make intel-
ligent readjustments as may be necessary for further progress.
The fact is appreciated that faculties and students need each
other and that the nation needs both. But for the best results to
be obtained there must be FREEDOM OF SPEECH and FREE-
DOM OF THE COLLEGE PUBLICATION. Faculty members
MUST realize that they can be wrong and that the student can be
right though he does not think as they do. The college paper
should be a medium by which both faculty and student body can
exchange ideas in an open forum. Jt is unjust for an editor to
think that his readers only want to know what he thinks; would
like to read only the things that he might choose for them. What
we need is a faculty and a student body that COOPERATE !
Many of our exchanges have regular faculty contributors both
editorially and featurally. Why is it that the faculty takes so lit-
tle interest in our paper? We have invited contributions but have
had to dig for every article used. Faculty members have criticiz-
ed our efforts but they fail to take steps that are constructive.
We would like to know the views of faculty members on present-
day problems but it would be easier to try to blast the rock of
Gibraltar from its firm base with a pea-shooter than to extract
an eauonai irom a taculty member of Daniel Baker.

AN EDITOR'S CONCUSSIONS
Reasons Why I Never Learned to
Spell Leach: 1. After rending your
letter I feel that I did not waste my
time in not learning to spell. 2. 1 nev-
er did have a teacher that could out-
spell me so I did not think it ncces-
saiy to exuit myself. 3. I learned to
wilte on a typewiitcr before I did with
a pen and pencil if you have ever
learned to type you will know what I
mem whn I say that my flngeis are
responsible for spelling and not my
brain. (Not claiminir that I ever did
know how to spellthe first '!" 1 ever
made was In spelling- duo to a little
duress on the pait of a hickory and a
strong arm I made "A's" from then
on.) 4. I learned that the spelling of
the simple words was all foolishness
. . . teacher always asked the dllfi-
cult ones; I complied by learning only
those. In all my life I can never re-
member spelling separate "scperate"
(you will find this error on the indi-
vidual entollmcnt cards of Daniel Ba-
ker College - the present ones or
grammar "grnmmer" as you did in
your letter. I am not sure that you
spelled college "collage" but I am
positive that you should have had
penmanship while you were learning
to spell so proficiently. By the way
while on the subject' have you always
scribbled like that? If so I can easily
undci stand why you learned to spell.
Your teacher always gave you the
benefit of the doubt.
I'ecently one of our instructors gave
us an article for the naner. Thouirh
it contained less than ninety words
then; wcte five of them misspelled.
A moiu i ecenf incident: an insttttc-
toi gave us a four line joke to print.
It was hunlcdly wiltten and by the
professor nevettheless four words
wore inconectly spelled.
One of my English teacheis allowed
the class to spell through "thru" al-
though "altho" though "tho" night
"nite" thought' "thot" enough "enuf"
etc.
Shoithand and the little I have
learned about languages other than
the English have succeeded in making
me me illiterate I am today.
But I can say that I have m.v..r
been ashamed to openly criticise. I
wouiu iikc to meet you and discuss
tho matter further.
(Signed) (Not Afraid) Leach.

WHATLL BE THE I)IFF A HUNTERT YEARS IROM NOW?
Did you make the honor roll ? No ; well I do dare ! Hut what
does it matter? Who'll know the difference ten years from now
what's in a grade anyway ?
Yes there is chance that IT will mean a hardship the loss
of a scholarship or a recommendation or a job.
But again what will it matter in a year? "As soon as we
say it we repent. It may matter. It can lie made to. It may
mean stinging you to work to making your opportunities and then
taking them; it may mean letting you sink into morass of medio-
eruy. u an uepenu.s ot course on HOW YOU TAKE IT."
What is a 50 75 100 ; an A 15 C to the student that is get-
ting out of life a fullness that the honor rollee is probably miss-
ing? Is the constant "A" maker seen at the socials ; does ho take
active part in the "little things of life" or is his nose ever stuck
in a book ?
We are not advocating that ''Ignorance is Bliss" but that a
full fellowship receipt does not specify an honor student us a nec-
essary ingredient.
Be yourself and don't let those grades discourage you. The
persons that make the successes are seldom the honor students
but the ones that run in the average division.
When you start pining over those B's C's and D's recall the
many good books you have read the wonderful pictures you have
seen the perfectly swell time you have had at parties thut won-
derful bridge partner who helped you make that grand slam last
night; remember that lovely girl you held in your arms the other

of education.)
