Is Your Love
Like This?
Fair is my love, but not so fair as
fickle;
Mild as a dove, but neither true
nor trusty;
Brighter than glass, and yet, as
glass is, brittle;
Softer than wax, and yet, as iron,
rusty:
A lily pale, with damask die to
grace her,
None fairer, nor falser to deface
her.
f
Her lips to mine how often she
hath join’d,
Between each kiss her oaths of true
love swearing,
How many tales to please me hath
she coin’d-,
Dreading my love, the loss thereof
still fearing!
Yet in the midst of all her pure
protestings,
Her faith, her oaths, her tears, and
all were jestings.
She burn’d with love, as straw
with fire flameth,
She burn’d out love, as soon as
straw outburneth;
She fram’d the love, and yet she
foil’d the framing,
She bade love last, and yet she
fell a turning.
Was this a lover, or lecher wheth
er?
Bad in the best, though excellent
in neither.
—Shakespeare.

“The schools need strong leadership which should hold for
young people of today a challenge in public education on the
elementary and secondary levels,” said Mr. John P. Whit
taker, Atlanta University Registrar, when he delivered the
annual Crogman Day Lecture on Tuesday morning, May 5
in Davage Auditorium. The day is held in memory of Dr. W.
H. Crogman, Clark’s first Negro President.
Centering his address around ex
periences which have come to him,
and, from which young people to
day may benefit, the Atlanta Uni
versity registrar traced the devel
opment of Negro high schools in
Atlanta from the time they were
operated by the colleges, and cited
their rapid growth which consisted
of the tearing down of the one-room
schools in order to have one cen
tral school. The establishment of
the central school has brought about
a serious problem in thait. there
is a need for genuine personnel in
these schools, particularly the
principalship and other forms of
leadership, he pointed out.
In stressing the need for trained
personnel, the Director of Atlanta
University’s summer school, made
use of his work with the Commit
tee on College Accrediting. He
said that the Southern Association
believes that the best teachers are
the ones who have earned the Ph.
D. degree. This provides them witn
top-training, giving them the tools,
a vast amount of knowledge enabl
ing them to talk as one who knows
that he knows, he said.
In conclusion, he stated that
Within the next few years there
will be a change in our colleges—
they will be stronger and better;
but that we will be rationed some
time with the matter of person
nel.
The speaker was introduced by
Professor A. B. Wright, Head of
the Clark Business Adminstration
Department and former pupil of
Mr: Whittaker. Other principals on
the program included Reverend S,
M. Weeks, College Minister, and
Dean A. A. McPheeters.
In the spring, an instructor’s fan
cy turns HEAVILY toward thoughts
of term papers, research papers,
book reports, notebooks and exam
inations.
