WAL Suggests Revision of The Life and Activities of

BULL'S EYE

Out of a spontaneous discussion ] the

Women's

meeting last

League

board

Wednesday evening,

has come a suggestion f o r a new program of w a r work to be carried on chiefly by the women of the campus. Feeling the need for co-ed participation similar

in the programs,

Red Cross and yet

realizing

the difficulty of fitting such activities into a schedule already crowded with curricular and e x t r a - c u r r i cular functions, the idea was developed of correlating war

work

with the r e g u l a r sorority set-up. No definite plans have been formulated but the ideas as presented later to the Tan-Hellenic board and f r o m thence to the individual societies, contains the following s u g g e s t i o n s : That sororities hold their usual weekly meeting but with only one or two literary meetings per month on which considerable effort should be expended. On the other meeting nights, war work of some kind such as knitting, sewing, l e t t e r - w r i t i n g to boys in the service, attendance a t surgical dressing, first aid, and home nursing courses, or open discussions of the existing military, political and economic conditions, might be carried on. The suggestion, as put before the various sorority g r o u p s in their last week's meetings met, in most cases, with a very favorable response. A m a j o r i t y of the m e m b e r s felt t h a t though the plan involved some sacrifice and r e a d j u s t m e n t , it was something which could and should be done. The unity of the groups would still be kept, and the fellowship enjoyed in p r e p a r i n g and p r e s e n t i n g p r o g r a m s continued, though along slightly different lines. The cultural benefits of a sorority would still be received f r o m the monthly or semimonthly p r o g r a m s ; and the girls themselves would be meeting, to some e x t e n t at least, the d e m a n d s of the times.

All girls are invited and urged to come and join in the fun and g a m e s which Milly B u r g h a r d t is planning. Each girl is asked to bring a 10cent g i f t to help fill S a n t a ' s pack and to make some child happy. The temple building will be decorated in gay C h r i s t m a s fashion with a tree and all the t r i m m i n g s . Appetizing r e f r e s h m e n t s will be served to the f u n m a k e r s .

Biggest news of the vacation, of course, is t h a t stu prez Harrison h a s joined the r e g u l a r s and denuded his manly chest of a f r a t pin, said jewelry now adorning one J e t t s R y l a a r s d a m , s c h o o l t e a c h e r . . .

According to eyewitness Eek Klaaren, she was as calm as though she'd been married a hundred times before.

streets of late is, "I suppose 1 ought to go out and do some Christmas shopping but I,can't seem to get in the spirit this year." This is but an indication of a widespread feeling that the Christmas spirit of goodwill is incompatible with the hard, inescapable fact of world-wide war. Celebration of the birth of the Prince of Peace seems to many people arch-hypocrisy in a time when there is hardly an inhabited nook or corner on the lace of the earth where people a r e not engaged in the business of killing. These people, unknowingly, are s h i f t i n g the blame f o r this w a r f r o m man to God. But man, and man alone, is at fault in this chaos. Christ, through his teaching of sincere devotion to God, helpful love of man for his fellow man, and of complete unselfishness, showed the way through which a world at peace might be achieved. He demanded that his followers should bring their whole world, including theii personal, social, and political activity, to God through devotion to Himself and His teacmngs. When man fails to obey this command, war inevitably follows. Sometimes innocent nations are d r a w n into these struggles, j u s t as an innocent individual is often the victim of the failure of another individual to observe the Christian consideration for his neighbor. No m a t t e r how peacefully minded such nations may be or how actively they may be engaged in working in the interests of peace, they may be driven to fight for their ideals of justice and freedom.

Anniversary Sale ot Christmas Seals To Hit $8,000,000

' S t a m p out T u b e r c u l o s i s . ' " The editor t h o u g h t f o r a mom e n t ; looked a t the sheet of red and white seals, and visioned the f a r - r e a c h i n g crusade.

Today, December 9, m a r k s the 35th a n n i v e r s a r y of the " b i g g e s t ittle thing of our g e n e r a t i o n " — the tuberculosis C h r i s t m a s seal. It was in Wilmington, Delaware, t h a t America's first tuberculosis seal \vas launched. Miss Emily P. Bissell s t a r t e d the project in the hope of raising $300 to keep open a small shack for tuberculous sick. She had read about such a sale in Denmark. Why not t r y the idea h e r e ? She designed a simple seal, got two f r i e n d s to a g r e e to stand good for $20 each if the v e n t u r e failed, and America's first Christmas Seal went to the p r i n t e r s .

"Tell Miss Bissell the North American is hers f o r the holidays. Drop w h a t you're doing and give this your whole time. T a k e all the space you need. Ask her to send us fifty thousand by t o m o r r o w . " With all the make-it-known methods of a large newspaper, the North American spread the news. The C h r i s t m a s seal idea was launched and when C h r i s t m a s came there was $3,000 to show for the venture. The following year the tuberculosis seal was offered to the entire nation, and as it has grown in popularity, the public's u n d e r s t a n d ing of tuberculosis h a s also increased. For the tiny seals support some 1,700 tuberculosis associations whose consistent efforts teach the public t h a t tuberculosis is curable — or b e t t e r still, preventable.

On December 9 the seals were off the p r e s s and ready to sell. The first two days they went very well in the Wilmington post office, but not f a s t enough to reach the $300 goal.

Fun, food and frivolity held the high c a r d s in the I o r i a n s ' hands last T h u r s d a y when i ' r e d a Grote's home was the scene oi a hilarious pot luck. Food came first in the way of casseroles, chocolate milk, salads, and pies. All the girls ate heartily. Chief Cook, Mimi Moncada and her able a s s i s t a n t s , Miriam Sieberts, Betty W a r n e r and L o r e t t a Van Wieren, planned the s c r u m p t i o u s meal.

N e x t came a " r e c o r d i n g " of "Rose O ' D a y " by the illustrious Keatrice Bay, alias Adeline Sybersma. Dressed in a flouncy blue dress, with a flowered hat and swinging a small black purse, Adeline made a very imposing a p p e a r a n c e and her impersonation was thoroughly enjoyed by all. This " r e c o r d " was " s w i t c h e d " to one of Aunt Amelia's inspirational talks entitled "The Influence of Music on the N a t i o n " and Aunt Amelia a p p e a r e d to be none o t h e r than Dorothea Dixon in a costume of the period. Last but not least. "Beautiful D r e a m e r " with the celebrated J e n n y Lind as vocalist was heard. This " a r r a n g e m e n t " by Lena Hibma was praised by the listeners and it was agreed t h a t she was quite the '"belle" in her long black skirt and high-necked white blouse with her hair pinned back in the old-fashioned way.

Ltttcr From Joe Starts Us Thinking

This Busy Christmas Season

Yesterday when I came home f r o m lab, there was on my desk an envelope with my n a m e on it. " C u r s e s , " I moaned, as I greedily snatched it up and tore it open, " a n o t h e r letter to a n s w e r . " It was f r o m Joe. F o r almost two years Joe has been devoting himself, f o r a small consideration, to the task of building P 38'a. He is a vital clog in the wheels of industry. Today he is teaching women the difference between a rivet and an air hose— t r a i n i n g them to take the places of men who will shortly be in the army—himself included. Joe s t a r t s work at 7 a. m. Since he makes his own b r e a k f a s t and lunch and drives 18 miles to the factory, he must get up at 5:30. For a time he cheerfully arose at the ghastly hour of 3:30 in order to work 10 hours a day. He got used to early rising, did you s a y ? Ureathes there a man with soul so dead Who never to himself has said, As the a l a r m clock goes off near his head, "Ay-oo ubbledy-blub-blub—sold to A m e r i c a n ? " —Especially at 3:30 A. MI Recently Joe gave up his car. As he put it, "In this time of war, when rubber and gas are so scarce, t h a t thing takes too much cranking." True, he used it only f o r pleasure, but doesn't t h a t make the sacrifice even g r e a t e r ? How do we measure u p ? Compared to w h a t Joe is doing and giving up, are we doing enough to j u s t i f y our stay in college?

Few people ever stop to realize what an i m p o r t a n t p a r t r ubbe r plays in our daily lives. They have f o r g o t t e n t h a t shortly a f t e r we a r e born we are introduced to this neut r a l - t a s t i n g commodity in t h e f o r m of a lactic pipeline. They recall with nostalgia, if at all, t h a t o u r f o r m a t i v e years a r e involved with rubber boats, r ubbe r ducks t h a t squeak, sling-shots and football bladders. They have conveniently chosen to hide deep in the subconscious, t h a t horrible evening at the high school dance when the g a r t e r broke and the world went black. Ah-h-h, Rubber! At this particular time, rubber has t a ke n on a new importance. A m o n g the h o r r o r s of war, has e m e r g e d the t e r r i f y i n g f a c t that rubber, when we haven't got it, won't stretch. 'ihe f a m i l i a r stench of a toosuddenly braked tire, once dismissed with a sniff and a shrug, has become identified with criminal negligence, if not downright treason. Every under-inflated tire, every careless bump against the curbstone, every screeching turn gives us the feeling that we've sunk a rubber boat, torn a gas mask off a soldier, or sent a jeep into battle on its rims.
