( Dear Editor: On several occasions President Wright has reminded us that we should not burn our lights while should stop! The bills run up whether anybody is using the lights or not, and electricity is expensive. We are more care- ful in our homes about using the ‘lights and since our college is our home while we are here we trations of heredity, environ- ment and training. She asked, “If a farmer was going to plant corn what would he look for?” Innocently the freshman replied “A pretty day.” Just suppose that our chemis- try experts on the campus would try what the students of the Uni- versity of California did. It has, been reported that home-made | tear bombs were thrown at a! student with radical leanings who was selling literature on a street on the campus at the uni- versity.

During the quarter of a cen- tury it has continued to be, what it’s name implies—a teacher's training school: Never changing from the teacher-training idea, it has continued to serve the state in that one purpose, Few of the students know anything about the history of the college; the organi- zations, classes and other activities. In or- der to familiarize the students with the his- tory, the Teco Echo is using the history of the college as the theme for this year. What the boys can do, the girls can do. It will be hard the first year, but with the backing of the student body and facul- ty, East Carolina Teachers College can show that intercollegiate basketball for girls is a desirable, and wholesome sport. FAIR PLAY What does that over-used expression mean? How can we apply it to our daily work and play? Although it is a trite expression it gives very vividly the attitudes we should have towards our college and our friends. Dr. Wright has asked that we play fair with the college authorities in such things as loafing, taking « long time to walk with co-eds from the library to the dormitory and a few other undesirable things that have been happening. The students can control it, and they should. Dr. Wright says that only by do- ing it for ourselves can we build character, which is one of the attributes we should all have. Let‘s play fair with the President of the college and the other authorities, so that they will not have to say to us “Turn About is Fair Play”. duce them by being more econo- mical. Dear Editor: When morning gilds the sky | and glorifies the beauty of the! earth, some students on East ; Carolina Teachers College cam-| pus feel the need of coming to- gether and worshipping the} Maker of this beauty.

Can it be that an extra fifteen minutes of | sleep are more important than | a fifteen minute worship pro- gram? Since our new dining| room rules have come into ef-| fect, there is more time left for cleaning up rooms, so this can- | not be why students do not at-|! tend Morning Watch. Is it that! pupils are not interested in this | form of Y. W. C.

By the way, it seems that Dr. Frank is getting absent-minded. I have always heard the profes- sors were absent-minded, but feature one here being so absent- minded that he forgot to go to class. I’ve heard that is what Dr. Frank did, but don’t quote me. Girls often have queer desires; and often times they are unex- plainable. It seems that one of the young ladies on our campus does have queer desires. The other day in one of his economic classes, Mr. Flanagan shot the question “Do you want a pig” at Nellie Grissom. Nellie in her calm manner said, “I could use one if I had one.” What was Nellie thinking about? Maybe it wouldn’t take a devottee of Sherlock Holmes to figure that GIRLS.
