R. Taff <( ►♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦• • Education Department Trains Freshmen For Better Work The members of this year's freshman class should be better students than the members of previous freshman classes, says Neill Scott, instructor in the education department of Western Carolina Teachers college, who ha» been giving the students workouts on the tachisoscope this quar. ter. "They should be able to read more material with more understanding in less time," said Mr. Srott. "I think the tests that have been given them will bear this out." The tachistoscope, an overhead projector with an attachment for regulating the length of time for which slides are shown upon a screen, was used in the freshman education classes to train the eye to read in conjunction with vocabulary building exercises. The students have been working with the tachistoscope for six weeks, four periods a week, approximately 20 minutes a period. Some of them can read a seven digit number in one-one hundredth of a second. , Next quarter the Harvard Films may be used as a part of the freshman English course or group guidance course. With these films, a whole page of material is projected on the screen, but the eye follows a beam of light which can be regulated to move with varying degrees of speed. This year's freshman class is the first class to be given this valuable opportunity to use their eyes to better advantage. If the students apply this training in their college work, WCTC will have four years from now a graduating class of which it can be unusually proud. On A Woman's Eye Brow When I to Truth am oft wont tq approach And thoughts of Woman in her chaste disguise Come to my mind, I utter in re- ' proach A warning of a woman's teasing eyes. An eyebrow's arch spells Judas to the wise; Deceit has caused far better blood to broach Than that which flows behind such scheming eyes, The windows of the soul—they do encroach. Within the soul the truths of all things are, And thru the eyes the secrets of the mind Shine forth as brightly as old Haley's star. Truth seeks true light—without light truth is blind. Seek not the shallow. Truth Is buried deep. The things most dear true love will always keep. Herbert L. Hyde Candlelight Carol Service (Continued from Page 1) junior and youth choirs. The theme of the service will be Mankind . . . Yearning for the Light, God . . . Preparing to give the Light, Jesus Christ . . . the Light of the World, and The Lord God Reigneth. The choir will sing "Adoration: Lamb of God"; "Hark, the Herald Angels Sing", by Mendelssohn; "Joy to the World," by Handel; "The First Noel", and the "Hallelujah Chorus." Virginia Barnwell will be soloist in "How Beautiful Upon the Mountain", by Wilson; Maxine Barbour in "Night of Nights;" and Bronson Matney in "Gesu Bambino." Mrs. Zula M. Smith and Mr. Clayton Curtis will be the accompanists. Polka Dot Ties Will Give You Collegiate Look By Bill Easterling Who says the female is the fair- '.' It isn't so in the animal world, and the human beings are lotting away from the idea. Vanity goes along with beauty(?), and the males have it! The college man whose clothes are in style today has the "bold look," This look consists of pink shirts, huge polka dot ties, suspenders, and 'garters. The suits this year have lapels an Inch wider, with seams at the edge. All this is designed to make the male's masculinity show up more, and is accompanied by heavier shoes, bolder sox, and the cigar! Yes, the cigar is definitely "in" this season. (It's more masculine, you know.) To fall in line with the "new look" in men's clothes, some cigar manufacturers have designed a special "collegiate" cigar—smaller—for casual campus smoking! If you fellows want to be in style and out of the old look, get yourselves some pink shirts, polka dot lies, suits with matching hats, and, of course, a collegiate cigar (for "casual" campus smoking, that is).

I'm standing on the brink, And know not how to move, or why I should be worried now; I've written scores of themes, I guess, And still I don't know how. My trouble (or I've found it so) Lies not in motivation, But knowing how to write a theme Without an inspiration. If someone would but teach me how To write just anytime, I'd have a thousand words or more And not this silly rhyme. Oh I can write, I know that well, But what's its use to me, If lacking inspiration, I'm Completely lost at sea? My writing is no attribute, If when the themes fall due I spend a week in searching for Some topic I can do. The writer who will make mark In this, or any nation, Must seat himself, and start work Without an inspiration. A million words, or so, should come Forth like a shining fountain, Without the task of waiting for Mohammed -and the Mountain. My soul, why is it eyer so m When writing must bp done, I delve for ideas, but to find I've not a single one, If, as was said by Stevenson, There's two parts inspiration To every genius, while the rest Is only perspiration, Then why, oh why, with all my sweat Must I face condemnation While waiting for my two percent That's classed as inspiration? Yet I could ramble on and on And have no rhyme or reason, But what's the use of hunting thoughts When mine are out of season. his to clothing. The drive will last until the end of the quarter. Students are asked to contribute as generously as they possibly can.
