more philisophical than a col-
lege student; the purpose of the
paper, unlike our college paper,
was not to give news. How-
ever there is much similarity m
the two. For one thing, The
Spectator Papers were success-
ful: so is our Teco Echo.
"One secret of a successful
journalist is the power to be
always alert, observant, and yet
tolerant and impersonal. Mr.
Spectator, in his preface, intro-
duced himself but omitted his
name and address. Today such
precaution is unnecessary but it
suggests to us a wise, impersonal
non-partisan use. The Spectator
was not a paper for one certain
society. It represented all orga-
nizations.
At a meeting of the Club, the
squire, the merchant, the lawyer,
the ladies' man, and the soldier
were all willing for the Specta-
tor to say anything he pleased
about any occupation except
their own. Each, one demanded
that nothing less than the most
complimentary be sa;d of his
own line of work The clergy-
man, realizing that the editor
would have no field left, saved
the situation by gently repri-
manding the gentlemen in a tol-
erant truthful manner.
We, as true journalists, at-
tempt to be alert, observant,
tolerant, and truthful. We try
to keep paper as it is now?rep

FROM THE DEPTHS OF OUR HEARTS
For the second time those who love East
Carolina Teachers College are celebrating
its birthday. Twenty-six years ago the Gen-
eral Assembly passed an act providing for
a state institution that would give to
young white men and women such educa-
tion and training as shall fit and qualify
them to teach in the public schools of
North Carolina That was March 8, 1907.
A great project was started, plans were
made, and work begun at once. In Octo-
tx r. 1909, the college was first opened.
Since that time, its growth has been almost
phonominal. Thousands of the State's
young people have come and worked here.
They have gone away to become citizens in
their chosen homes, and they have been bet-
ter able to face the problems of life because
of what they received. It is they who are
now molding the lives of the children of the
State, who are teaching them the joys of
living and serving.
It is fitting that all those who love her for
tion of sport-page readers the State over.
They have drawn large crowds to a series
of games which could be duplicated in fair-
ness, sportsmanship, and breath-taking
waiting in few, if any other, gymnasiums.
Games have been won and lost in the last
few seconds of play.
The "TEACHERS" are good sports. They
win or lose with a smile; they fight on when
the game is won or lost. Their attitude on
the field has been beyond reproach?it is
worthy of the highest words of praise. They
have won and lost for E. C. T. C. in the true
manner of a sport.
Among the team there are no far super-
ior players?each is all that could be asked.
On no one does an unduly heavy load rest.
The TEACHERS are all good!
Perhaps too little credit has been given
to him who has done most to model the
team. Coach Beatty. His plans and poli-
cies become those of his boys. He is their
friend, not their guard. He has the respect
of everyone of his team. To it he has given
the benefits of his br-oad experience; he
has given hours of coaching, of planning, of
encouragement, of advice. He has attacked
a big job, the breaking in and training of
men through hours of diligent work when
he knew there was no remuneration in it.
But has "Our Coach for he is coaching
"Our Team" for -Our School had no re-
muneration? In a monetary way, No. But
the spirit of the side line, of the Cheerios,
of the balcony, is an expression of thanks.
It is our way of saying "Coach, you have
done your best and your best is highly
pleasing to us His pay is not in money
but in the prevalent sentiment on our Cam-
pus that Coach and team are good sports,
the pride of East Carolina Teachers Col-

The world is waiting for a leader.

THE BASKETBALL TEAM
Boy's Athletics are firmly established at
East Carolina Teachers College. During
the next few days an outstanding program
in inter-collegiate athletics will come to an
end.
All the basketball games have not been
won but the percentage is so high that
even the most conservative realizes that
this team, a team in its infancy has made
for itself and the College for which it
stands a most enviable record. These boys,
many of them entering college for the first
time, have won a large percent of their
games in this second season of inter-colle-
giate activities. They have attracted for

S. G. A. ELECTIONS
Before the next publication of the Toco
Echo, a mass meeting will have been held
and nominees will have been named for of-
fices of the Student Government Associa-
tion.
It is time to begin considering the
qualities that are needed in those who will
hold the honor places. Honest, fair minded
girls are on the campus who will do their
best to uphold the standards built up here.
It will be their duty and their task to fur-
ther the fine feeling of fellowship that has
been steadily progressing this year. Not
since the present Seniors have been here
has the spirit of helpfulness, of considera-
tion for others been felt so strongly. An
attitude toward the higher ideals of honor
for honesty's sake is evidenced more and
more.
And it is for you to select those who
will carry on in this work. Do not act hur-
riedly, thoughtlessly, but carefully weigh
the qualities needed in each girl you see.
Let no personal prejudices warp your decis-
ions, and when Election Day comes, vote for
her who measures up best to the ideal Be
able to leave the polls with the conscious-
ness that you have voted for the best in the
college and for the college.

Some might say that to have
intercollegiate basketball for
girls would demoralize the girls.
We are proud to say that the
girls in the athletic association
have such a fine set of standards
to follow that this would have
no affect whatsoever on the girls
Has basketball had any bad ef-
fect on the boys here in this col-
lege? I think that no one can
truthfully say that it has.
Then again someone would say
that the girls would want to win
so badly that that would be the
aim of every game. We should
have a high ambition, and if
that is an ambition, why fuss
about it. But to win basketball
games would not be the chief
objective. To become better ac-
quainted with the standards in
the athletic associations of other
colleges: to become better
friends with the girls from other
colleges; and to develop among
the colleges a more friendlv
feehng-these would be the main
ideas. We have supported the
boys in their games, whether
they have won or lost: so I do
not see how anyone can say that

One of the most important
buildings on a college campus is
the library. The library is the
heart of the college. It is a
comfortable and convenient
place for the students to come to
study. The college library, in
addition to supplying reading
and studyroom facilities, has as
its primary purpose to make
possible the investigation of any
subject connected with the col-
lege curriculum. This is what
our library proposes to do, but
we must have cooperation from
the students. Cooperation is one
of the most essential elements in
a well organized library.
The librarians are glad and
willing to help the students at
all times. They are glad for
them to come to the library to
work, but each one must do his
or her part to make the library

I was once a pack of excellent
chewing gum: five whole de-
lightful pieces, wrapped in color-
ful paper lying in a box. Then
one day the unexpected happen-
ed, and I was bought by a lad,
and soon I belonged to five dif-
ferent people.
Taking a stick from the pack-
age, the young man transferred
it to his mouth, and walked
lazily down the hall to Science
class. The teacher, a young col-
lege graduate with no former
teaching experience immediately
recognized me as a stick of for-
eign matter; and the nice young
man who bought me was forced
to write "I must not chew gum
in school" five hundred times,
!but he was ably assisted by sev-
eral f his cronies, so perhaps
I his fate wasn't so pathetic.
My second stick went to a
young lady who evidently was
the choice companion of above
mentioned young man. She soon
tired of the gum and threw it
out on the lawn, and several
minutes later another charming

SELF-HELP EDITION
This issue of the Teco Echo
is dedicated to those students
of the college who are work-
ing here to help themselves.
Thinking of them makes one
think of the old adage. "God
helps them who help them-
selves and a survey of the
campus shows the boundless
truth therein.
Take, in the first place, the
scholastic standings of the
self-help students. Almost
all of ihem hold high records.
The majority of them are out-
standing in their class work,
arc much above average.
Another prominent feature
of the survey is this. Many
important offices are held by
these students. Until she
began Practice teaching this
term, the president of the
Student Government Associa-
tion was an assistant libra-
rian. The president of the
Y. W. C. A. helps the Director
of the English Department.
The president of the Wom-
en's Athletic Ass??ciation
works in the Y Store. The
editor of the Teco Echo is an
assistant librarian, the man-
aging editor is secretary of
the Publicity Department, and
two associates are helping in
the dining room. The presi-
dent of one of the societies,
and a number of the Student
Council arc holding self-help
places.
So to this group who are
seen in every phase of col
lege life is dedicated this is-
sue of the Teco Echo.

Gee, isn't it great to get away,
From the no;se and the strife of
every day life?
To leave behind all care and
woe,
That oft' oppresses every soul,
To leave behind the buildings
tall,
And to stand beneath some for-
est wall.
To dream new dreams that les-
sen our strife
And adds to our work new joy
and life.
We wonder if some of the co-
eds are sick all the time, or why
the Moore and Randolph flower
truck is such afrequent visitor
