THE HEARTS OF WOMEN

College men and women recognize elec
tricity as one of the principal aids to
progress in the factory, on the farm, and
in the home.
Guided by human intelligence,
electricity can do almost any
job a man can do. From stirring
to grinding, from lifting to
pulling, there is a G-E motor
specially adapted to any task.
If you have played with the hearts of
women,
Be they old or merely maids,
Be sure, my son, you’ll regret it
As certain as spades are spades.
You’ve laughed and joked with the
other boys,
At the way you’ve strung them along,
Never considering the pain you’ve
caused
Nor think you’ve done any wrong.
But wait, sometime you’ll really love,
And then you’ll begin to pay,
For the hearts you’ve broken will give
you no rest
In your dreams, your work or your
play.
You’ll see their faces as you talked
to them,
You’ll remember the look in their
eyes
As you spoke of love and other things,
God, but you’ll hate those lies.
For the day you find yourself in love,
With a girl so wonderous fair,
You’ll think of the hearts you’ve tri
fled with,
And you’ll begin to doubt she’s square.
That day it will all come back to you,
And the question you’ll ask will be,
“I’ve fooled and played with a dozen
girls,
Do you suppose she’s playing with
me ?”
When you kiss the lips of the girl you
love
As you leave her at the door,
You’ll wonder in spite of all you can
do,
If she has been kissed that way be
fore.
For the things she does with inno
cence
Will fill your heart with doubt,
And the moments you spend away
from her
Will tear your heart-strings out.
You’ll never think she’s doing right,
Though she does and tries her best,
You’ll be jealous of every man you
see
And think she is like the rest.
For you’ll think of the many girls
you’ve kissed,
And you’ll reason that this is true,
“The things I can do to the other
man’s girl,
The other man to my girl can do.”

THE VALUE OF SMALL COLLEGES
American parents will select small
colleges near their homes for their
children if they follow the advice of
Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, noted educator
and health authority.
The great universities with present-
day enrollments of 5,000 to 25,000 are
like factories, turning out graduates
supplied with specified facts on cer
tain subjects, but they lack the ad
vantage of intimate contacts between
teacher and students and the congen
ial community life which develops
character and fosters culture, he de
clares.
“There is also a social threat which
is more dangerous in huge crowds
than in small companies,” he says.
“It is the danger of bolshevism and
atheism. It is an easy matter in
these crowded educational centers to
couple up disbelief in God with disbe
lief in government.
“One dollar expended at Hanover,
a small college in Indiana, gives as
much culture as five at Harvard. As
a graduate of both institutions I can
truly make this statement.
“The real specific benefit of the
small college lies in the fact that
its students are individuals. They
know their professors. They are not
simply a number in a huge herd, with
out recognition or individuality.
“In a commencement in which from
one to two thousand graduates receive
their diplomas, as is the case in many
of our large universities, there is no
individuality. There may be a few
who have graduated with honors, but
most of them rise and, without even
answering to their names, are given
the degree of Bachelor of Arts, or
whatever degree they may receive.
* “The whole benefit of personal
contact with the professor, the advan
tage of his personal and sympathetic
attention and his interest in each in
dividual character as it is unfolded
before him during the years of the
association, are all lacking in this
mass instruction.
“The safety of the future, fhe purity
of learning and the efficiency of
teaching are all intimately bound up
with the small educational unit,” his
Good Housekeeping article concludes.

four ticket windows. The sides will
be of white stucco, while the roof
will be of red slate and the base red.
If possible, a bronze football player
will be placed on the peak of the roof,
but more likely there will be a bronze
football in the position ready for the
kick-off. The tile will be furnished
by the Athletic Department and all
other materials by the Senior class.
Since work is going to start im
mediately, it is hoped to have the
Memorial conpleted by the time of
the S. M. U. game, early in Novem

along with the new stadium Thanks

placed on the structure showing that
it was erected and dedicated by the
Seniors of ’28.
