STUDENT OPINION
(Continued from Page 1)
more, my dear. We are now atoning
for our neglect of Sunday Chapel at
the A. and M. College by four hours
of walking a circle with an Army
Springfield Rifle adorning the shoul
der. We can never sufficiently real
ize what we owe to the hands of prog
ress.
At prestnt there is no neutral
ground on which students can meet
the authorities for a sane, logical,
non-antagonistic discussion of mat
ters that pertain to their welfare and
wishes. Things have reached the stage,
that rather than be laughed at as an
idalist, sneered at as presumptious or
rebuked as a meddler, that the aver
age student prefers to silence his
thoughts. But even more galling than
silence is that feeling of futility and
unfairness that exists under such
conditions.
How to gain recognition of our in
terest and desires without resorting
to drastic measures seems to be quite
a problem. Most studehts wish to
conform to the rules and regulations
of the College and if forced to dis
obey the Chapel rule to show their
disapproval of it, would defeat their
own, cause by outlawing themselves
and placing themselves liable to the
penalties of insubordination. In the
handling of such cases of insubordi
nation, the old slogan of Military Du
ty is uttered many times and the
causes that forced the infraction of
rules are ignorant or relegated to a
minor position while the heinous
charge of insubordination is being-
weighed and a lasting and heavy pen
alty is dealt out to the unfortunate
offender.
If you would have a man serve you
well, invest him with responsibility
and make him feel this responsibility.
Let him realize that certain things
are his work and his pride in him
self and his work will spur him on to
better efforts. Witness the example
of the present Senior Class. They
were allowfed the responsibility of
administering the affairs of their
commands, and by the President’s own
statement they have done exception
ally well. Preach honor, justice, and
virtue to a man for hours and you re
ceive a yawn for your trouble. Make
him feel that as an individual these
are qualities that concern him and his
welfare and he will practice those
virtues without further incentive.
Ten demerits was an exhorbitant
price to pay for missing Chapel, but
four additional hours on the bull-ring
is too much. Talk this over with your
room-mate and lets get some sensi
ble action on the matter. Decide
whether or not you are old enough and
sensible enough to decide for your
self when you need religious stimua-
tion, and if the time should come for
you to cast a vote be prepared and
do not fail to do so.
A popular vote on this question
would be an interesting experiment to
say the least and an experiment that
need involve no penalties or ill-feel
ing on the part of students or others
who are interested.
In conclusion, we can not help but
wonder if this article will be met with
the same frankness and sincerity in
which it has been offered or as in for
mer years, will be completely ignored.
Hi ik ❖
Some time near the beginning of
this term a very surprising artilce
appeared in the Daily Bulletin which
stated that all absentees from Drill
must be accounted for whether they
were excused absentees or otherwise;
however unexcused absentees must
spend two hours for one when they
report to make up their lost time.
We wonder what will happen to the
poor unfortunate who breaks a leg or
is handicapped in some other way on
drill day. We have some depart
ments here which require us to make
up all back work but very few re
quire two hours for one. If all our
departments did we would predict a
sudden increase in the number of in
structors on the Campus with the
addition of several new class rooms.
Many students left the campus
between terms with passes through
last drill day not knowing that such
an order would face them when they
returned to take up their work
again, but in this great military life
we receive no warning until we have
been trapped, which makes us believe
more and more in the old proverb
which says: “Be prepared,”—for the
worst.
Since I managed to get registered
before I left I have only to think of
how I am going to make up that
drill period I didn’t know I was
cutting, but why worry when the
