!GIVE FOR THE HOSPITAL
CHILDREN I
Undoubtedly no campus charityI
drive is so obviously deserving of{
wholehearted and complete stud-
ent support as the Galens' annual
tag sale for funds to provide a
Christmas party for crippled
children at the University hos-
pital and to further their work in
handicraft throughout the rest of
the year.
This year )many reasons against
giving to charitable purposes pre-
sent themselves to the average
individual who feels that the de-
pression and economic instability
should count for something. But
in spite of this, the Galens, the
junior honorary medical society,
has kept their quota up to $1,500,
the amount they have asked
for, and got, for several years.
Obviously, however, the weight
of the "depression" argument
against giving freely and unstint-
ingly to this cause is hardly
worthy inasmuch as now, if never
before, should charity and the
spirit sometimes called Christian
be displayed,
The Daily is grateful for such
an aim as this, coming from any
student organization, that it may
give its entire support to the
cause. In the interests of this
charitable purpose, it should be
manifestly easy for every student
and faculty man on the campus
to contribute a dollar or a half-
dollar toward a Christmas party
and some little cheer for the un-
fortunate chaps at the hospital.
Let's back the Galens in their
two-day drive!
SCampus Opinion
C (ontr ibutor s are askedl to be brieif,
eonlirmiog thenIsel\es to less than 300
words if possible. Anonnmous coin-
mu nications will be dsregardedl. The

nanl s of communicants will, however,
ILbe regarded as confidOential, upon re-
arruest. Letters published should riot be J
construedl as expressing the editorial
opinion of The Daily.

This system ueadens those that
might be great, discourages the fewj
simzpletons that struggle along un-
complainingly, and turns its atten-
tion to pouring information into
open mouths that receive it in
gagging gulps to remain buried and
nestled deep in their ead:s where
neither they nor anyone else in the
*world ever benefits. Sterotypo, edu-
cation!
It will take a young man, sit himt
on a chair and when duly thirsty.
hold before him a glass of ice cold
orange juice. His dry lips open, his!
parched throat contracts, his sali-
vary glands secrete. The glass is
brought closer and closer to hime,
when on the point of touching his
lips-presto--the orange juice is!
exchanged for caster oil; his headj
is forced back and. his throat is'
greased with an incorrigabie slime,
a repulsing liquid, a n,,useating
nutritive. "You oug ht to like it,
because it's good for you, my boy,"
echoes the brainless owl from the
naked branches of a dead Xmas,
tree.
They stroke our silk heads, rock
us in our cradles, pick us up when
we fall and call us MEN and
WOMEN. What naive flatte ry !
The beginning week in college vwc
are for the first time free, the guid-
irng hand of the family is out of
reach, we have heard repeateIdly
from the advisors, from the dleans,
from the professors, sweet sugar-
coated kind words: "Men and
women, you are no longer high
school children, you have got to
face life from now onl and m~aks,
your own decisions." Decision num-
ber one. Found, a tremendous in-
terest in psychology, aMn e tremne
desire to know the ' foundations.
Interference. "No my boy, not 'till
your junior year." Decision number
two. A desire to attenld an interest-
ing conference on internationalism
in a far-away city. Interference,
"Is it all right with your parents?'
Decision number three. Sunday
night, an unusually stimulatingi
session at the Cosmopolitan club.
The young lady arrives home at 12
o'clock instead of 11. Interference.
"Disobeying the college rulcs! No
' date next week." The little child is
allowed to the basting stiches, but
the real sewing? Oh no, mother
must do that; daughter might prick~
her little finger. P. S., '84.
