DOC*« ITH all the talk of war, depression, and a return to barbar- m ism ringing in our ears, it is nice to have one day in the * 1 year set aside to thank God for what we do have. We are not at war now. That means we are at peace. And this is the time to enjoy it, to be thankful that we live in a peace ful nation. The “cold war” is not war; in fact, it would be consid ered genuine peace by millions of people throughout the world. There may be a depression just around the corner—who knows? But we do know that at present salaries are higher and products are bringing better prices than ever before. Although some complain of the cost of living, it may never be any better in our lifetime. Remember the ’30s, and be thankful for today’s prosperity. Do you think civilization is going out of style? Well, look at the array of new developments in machines, instruments, and med ical science. All these are made possible to us in the twentieth century, and man alone has the intellect, the curiosity, the initia tive, and the ingenuity to bring them about. Let us not have to lose what we have in order to be thankful for it. • / J o t o d d t h e Gamfu*d With L. B. LET GEORGE DO IT These words by Chancellor Selke m ight be taken as good advice. “An adm inistrator m u st be able to get other people to w ork, . . . (to do the things) he hasn’t tim e to do.” That, you w ill rem em b er, was the way the chancellor facetiously suggested th a t -he got fish to eat and wild m e at to put in his locker. A d m inistrators, from President of the United States to classroom teach er or officer in a cam p us organiza tion, should be able to relegate the chores and responsibilities to capa ble people. T h e re is not tim e for everything. T h e adm inistrator who tries to do everything, who hesitates to let oth ers take up a job after he has the plan rolling, w ill soon find himself in a staggering dilemma, watching im p o rtant duties falling into a state of neglect. T h is m a y bring on w o rry and ov erw o rk, w hich usually results in the loss of pleasant m a n n e rs and peace of m ind—two all-im p o rtant qualities of a good adm inistrator.

The gay pair w e n t to a movie (The M ighty Joe Young, to be exact) to celebrate the fam ily reunion. R e turning to the dorm, the dow ager was taken on a grand tour of inspection. People opened doors for her as if she w e re the chief of police or an epileptic. People not “in the know ” thought W estern was about to receive a leg acy, and some w e re ju s t getting up courage to ask for a personal loan when the lady w ith the furs and the elaborate sky-piece giggled—giggled as only Frances McGowan could.. One of the most stirring, tender, and appealing stories came into my hands, quite by accident, the other day. It concerns a young man w ith whom nearly everyone is well ac quainted. Knowing the gentlem an it is certain that at one tim e or another you have w ondered about his seemingly indifference regard ing the opposite sex. Here are the reasons! The young man, known to his friends as “Swede,” has undoubtably been very concerned about the miss ing pages of his diary. However, if he reads this column the m y stery w ill be solved, for here they are: “Septem b er 2, 1948: “Dear Diary: I shall never forget the night we met, Soggy Sal; you w ere standing before me, a vision of loveliness amid a haze of cigar ette smoke. You smiled at m e fond ly and threw a rose you held in your teeth. I nobly picked up the rose and then gave you back your teeth. “You w e re all I had ever wanted. Your teeth rem inded m e of spark ling w ater, one down and Seven-Up. Thjdre was som ething -fascinating about your left eye; the right eye kept looking at it. Those lovely ears you possessed! T h e re was a rem a rkable thing about them. They w ere both on the left side of your head. Ah! yes, I w o rshipped every hair on your wig. You w ere truly a poor m a n ’s Cass Daley. “As our friendship grew, we be came very fond of one another. We used to stroll through the city dumps and talk of our future. We m ade plans of a little sky-blue, pink, cottage by the local rendering plant w h ere we would raise a flock of little m o n sters. We were indeed a blissful couple. Our love was a symbol of sheer stupidity. “The bitter end came on a beauti ful day. We were swim m ing along the seashore, full of young spirit (the spirit being provided by a friendly bottle). We were enjoying the cool, clear w a ter w h en I no ticed a fishing boat bearing down upon us. I shouted a warning, but to no avail. Then it was over! “I searched for you for three days, but my quest w a s fruitless. A fter all these years I am still grieving over you. The blow that has been dealt has been a sad one for me to endure. The fishing com pany has given me a settlem ent, to ease the pain, but of w h a t use are a hundred barrels of pickled her ring?” CLASS VISITS STATE HOSPITAL The class in Modern Social Prob lems, conducted by Professor O. K. Moe, m ade a visit to the State Hos pital at W arm Springs on Friday. A clinic, showing the types of m ental illness, was conducted for the class. CLASS VISITS TRAINING SCHOOL The class in C h ildren’s L iterature, conducted by Miss M y rtle Savidge, made a visit to the training school, Nov. 15, in observance of Book Week. The class visited Miss O’Reil ly’s fourth grade and heard book r e ports given as a part of th e observ ance. North American Indian Exhibit in Library W a lter McGuire, librarian, and the library economy class put up an ex hibit which is b u ilt around the North Am erican Indian—a large collection of pictures, books, and diagram s w h ich describe Indians and Indian life. The purpose of this exhibit is to give references and ideas for stu dents at the training school who are preparing a unit on Indians. O ther students will also find this display very useful. M embers of the library econ class are Pat Goggins, Peggy Johnston, Rose Badovinatz, and W a rren El- wood. Many of the pictures used in the display are from Mrs. Jordan’s p e r sonal collection. O thers were ob tained from books and magazines in the library. The pictures w e re painted by Wi- nold Reiss who was sent to the Rocky M ountain region by the G reat N o rthern railw a y to paint these In dians in their natural poses. ALUMNI NOTES Bill Spahr, who is teaching in Butte, recently conducted a Drama Study m e eting in the M o n tana Power au ditorium there.
