Kindness i s measured in terms of the spirit which prompts the act, rather than by the importance of the act itself. Have respect for yourself as well as for the feelings and opinions of others; have respect for law, because law is the recorded attempts to preserve peace, tranquility, and order; have respect for God, who has omnipotent power. Never be cast down by misfortunes. If a spider breaks his web he will mend it over and over again. When the sun goes down, look up at the stars; if earth is dark, keep your eyes on heaven. With the presence and promise of God we can endure anything; we should press onward, and never falter or fear.

A Word From Coach At some time or other every subject and every department of a school or college is called upon to justify its existence as a part of that college or school. This is especially true of the so-called special objects. In the past,the objective of a college was the teaching of a certain amount of knowl- edge, or facts. Educators of the present have broadened this objective to include a large amount of social training; that is, training in honesty,aggressiveness,fair play,emotional control, the advantageous use of leisure time, and the other social characteristics of this kind. It is in this field that athletics and physical education play so large a part. In no other subject does the teacher find so many opportunities for social development of the student. The success of physical education and athletics in the school has been so great that they are considered a necessary part of every well balanced educational program. FOOTBALL, '32 At the opening of the current football season, thirty men answered the call of the new coach, J. W. Ault. Of this number only a few were experienced in college football. The number was later limited to two teams. The inexperience of the players and the extremely difficult schedule prevented the season from being a very successful one. The team was probably the lightest in weight that has ever been put on the field by any college. Beyond doubt, this was the contributing factor in the defeats of the team. Over half of the opposing teams were entirely out of our Page Forty-two
