But why hunt down the obviOUS! The question is not: Will increased enrollment benefit our school?, but rath er: How increase the enrollment?

The latest campa ign for more students bears the slogan ONE HUNDHED FHESHMEN IN SEPTEMBER. Ideal, indeed!

But how is it to be clone? Simple. Every friend of the College, especially every alumnus, is to demonstrate his friendship in a practical manner. E\·eryone who knows one or more boys who are to graduate from high school this June is to send in the name and address of the boys to the College so that they may be V!Slted U\' the canYassers this summer. And in addition, the alumnus or r;·iencl is to try to persuade th is boy to enter St. Viator College next September. A few good \lOrds of praise and commendation for a school coming from a friend \\'ho has been there himself are ,·erv efl'ecth·e in influencing prospective students to enter the Coliege. All that is necessary is that e,·eryone who is interested in the development of St. Viator College and who thinks well of I he old school should simply manifest his interest and give expression to his thought.

The alumni have received letters from the president of the College announcing the inauguration of the campaign for ONE H TDHED FHESHi\lEN IN SEPTEl\IBER. Alumni, friends, and ~ome students. no doubt. will read this editorial and will hear more of the campaign: it \Yill also be announced in other ways.

But a special appeal i~ made here to spread the word around more :mel more. to talk up the campaign amongst the friends of the College. and what is most important, to donate to St. Yiator College the few minutes ne~essary to send in the name and address or prospel'tin• students and tell them just \\'h~· they should be numl>el·ecl :1mong th~ ONE Ht.;~DRED FRESHi.\IEK IN SEPTEUlBER. ]Jli noiR.
