Demonstrators
Come And Go
It’s too bad a recent occurence at Appalachian State
University in Boone, N. C., couldn’t have been given the
full-scale attention that most protest demonstrations re
ceive.
For this one just petered out and went away because it
was outprotested and outdemonstrated.
What happened was that a group of seven professors
against the war in Vietnam showed up on the Appalachian
campus from out of town and started to pass out literature
and conversation designed to show Appalachian students
the facts of life as the antis see them.
The students didn’t buy it. Between 300 and 400 of
them surrounded the antiwar group, tore up the literature
and suggested that the uninvited visitors get off the campus
and back where they came from, but fast.
Campus police officers were called to keep order. But
there was no real violence, no shooting or stabbing or rock
throwing, no injuries. There was just a loud, energetic,
clear-cut difference of opinion.
The anti group departed voluntarily through lines of stu
dents who sang “God Bless America” to speed the visitors
on their way.
This seems like such a simple, sensible way to handle
such situations that you wonder why it doesn’t happen
more often.
This way, visitors are free to come. Hosts are free to
urge them to go home. Visitors are free to go. There’s
freedom for everybody, and not nearly so much commo
tion and whoop-to-do as when demonstrators mug for the
camera and heads are busted.

12-Month School
Endorsement
ATHENS BANNER HERALD
AU Georgians should welcome the State Board of Edu
cation’s endorsement of a proposal to operate the state’s
public schools on a year-round basis.
The endorsement was given recently when the board
authorized the State Department of Education to cooper
ate in developing pilot projects in 12-month operation.
A $2 million budget request will be made by the State
Department to initiate pilot programs in at least eight
systems next year.
Clarke County is among the systems already interested
in the 12-month approach, and we are looking forward to
further developments here and elsewhere.
Students could be graduated sooner, get a wider variety
of courses, or have better “summer” job opportunities.
Both students and local businesses which might employ
them could benefit from a staggered vacation program
that would make students available for jobs throughout
the year.
Teachers could benefit from greater assurance of sum
mer employment and thereby larger annual salaries, or
they might achieve greater flexibility in their graduate
programs by being off some other quarter than in the
summer.
Taxpayers would, of course, benefit from the greater
usage of existing school facilities.
There are many problems involved in establishing such
an operation. That is why the pilot program approach is
being used. It will not solve all of your educational prob
lems.
But the idea does seem to have excellent potential, and
the State Board of Education’s endorsement and interest
is welcomed.
Let’s get on with the pilot programs.

A Scotsman, on a visit to Canada, noticed the mounted
head of a bull moose hanging in the hall of the house where
he was staying.
The Scotsman asked his host what sort of animal it was.
Host: “Oh, that’s a moose.”

Profanity
My husband Is quite a g o o d
man in many ways, but be is gi
ven to profanity. He can hardly
carry on a conversation without
using language that is shock
ing to most people. It is a sour
ce of embarrassment to me, but
how can I make him quit It?
M.H.
I have never known a deeply
spiritual man who was profane
in his speech, and I have never
known-a profane man who had
any spiritual perceptivity. He
may feign it while in church, but
his tongue gives him away at
other times.
Good language Is a mark of
good character, and bad langu
age is a sign of poor character.
In 1776, George Washington is
sued a general order which read:
“The General Is sorry to be in
formed that the foolish and wick
ed practice of cursing and sw
earing, a vice heretofore unkn
own in an American Army, is
becoming quite prevalent. He
hopes the officers will, by exam
ple as well as by influence en
deavor to check it, and that both
they and the men will reflect
that we can have little hope of
the blessing of Heaven upon our
arms if we insult it by our im
piety and folly. Besides this, it
is a vice so mean and low, with
out any temptation, that every
man of sense and character des
pises it.”
Even the godless Soviet gov
ernment discourages profanity,
for they say it is uncultural. But
the Bible says it is an offense to
Him whose name is profaned,
and violates the commandment,
“Thou shalt not take the name
of the Lord, thy God, in vain.”
How to stop your husband from
swearing? "A soft rebuke turn
eth away wrath”, says the Bi
ble.
