Life In Tke Log Cabin Should Prove Exciting By VIRGINIA RAINEY Li fe in the Log Cabin, which has been remodeled to meet the grow ing demands for housing dormitory students, should prove quite exciL ing. Miss Jenkins has twelve girls: Margie Thompson, Alpharetta; Ja mie Fitzpatrick, LaFayette; Lillian King. Meansville; Frances McWil liams, Trion; Mary Elizabeth Mea dows’ Cedartown; Mary Carolyh Doss, Grayson; Eloise Spence, Ho gansville; Nell Lane, Jackson; Mary Kathryn Fitts, Nelson; Grace Little, Bremen; Eva Cauthen, Tal lapoosa; and Floy Grant, Shiloh. Al though Miss Jenkins still reigns supreme in the attic, she is said to find her wards clinking about the rafters during the small hours of the night. The part of the cabin previous ly used for class rooms has been made into four bedrooms. This section of the building is heated with a large heatrola. Along with other equipment, they have a Hot Point water heater, which provides boiling water at all times, a Frigid aire, and prospects of new furni ture for the living room. After interviewing all of the girls, we find that the principle drawbacks are the sounds made in the night by large acorns dropping on the foof, the inconvenience in curred by not being able to hear the bells, and the fear and trem bling which necessarily results from watching Frances McWil liams visit all the rooms by simply clinking the partitions and drop ping over into the rooms. But taken by all at large, all the girls like it, for it provides all the elements of dorimtory life, along with the peaceful, woody atmosphere. University of Pennsylvania has begun its 197th year; 4,796 students get full-time and part time jobs including the .796 NYA’s.

By NORMAN TANT “A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell among thieves who beat him and robbed him of his garment and left him bleeding and well nigh dead. “A certain priest went that way and perceived him in that condi tion and lifted his garment and passed by on the other side. “A pharisee also went that way and saw his condition and he lifted his garment and passed by on the other side.” That is as far as we will go with that story. Here is another. A certain European country was experimenting in forms of government and fell among two fascist countries who furnished amunition to beat her and kill her people and burn her churches and loot the land. And certain countries who are neighbors to the bleeding country lifted the hem of their garments and passed by on the other side. Any well read person under stands the situation outlined above. They will further realize the peril to the youth of today. Shall we allow the antics of two mad dic tators eventually to turn you and me into mangled pieces of flesh? Only expert garment lifting on the part of our government can avert this. On the other side, can we always keep the hem of our garment clean by doging world problems and situ ations? We all realize that it is folly to speak of an isolationist policy. Just where do we as col lege students, fit into this mad whirl that we call world citizen ship? I hope that we won’t fit in to a Flanders Field! What is there to do about it all? From recent headlines we would picture the “dove of peace” to be like the few turtle doves that survive the hunt ting season; gunshy, most of the tail feathers gone and forever on the wing to distant refuges‘to gaze down with disillusionment on hu manity. But are we—as young people going to sink into apathy saying “It’s no use!” Wake up, youth of America! There is some use. Join the peace movement and save a billion lives! This does not mean that we won’t defend our shores from invasion; but it means that we won’t toler ate belligerent governmental poli cies and chip-on-the shoulder tactics.
