8 CANAL CURRENTS It was a cloudburst, — the dark cloud, remember? Floods swept away people, homes, everything in its path. This wrecking of humanity we thought was terrible, dreadful. It was; but we cannot check it. It is an act of God. We thought of it and shuddered; still there was nothing we could do about it. Yesterday over Europe the sun was shining; the people, light-hearted; everything was rosy. The eagle of Commerce flew the air, the land was brightened with the glow of Peace and Contentment. Today over Europe the sun is covered with a dark cloud — possible war. If not checked it will wreck humanity beyond possible repair. Yesterday’s eagle of Commerce must be kept from darting in and out of the Darkness like lightning and put back in the sunshine of peace. We can check it. It is not an act of God! Oh, we often wish it were for we know it would not be so unmerciful, so destructive, as in the hands of grasping men. Anthony Tassinari, ’36. WHAT IS YOUR SCORE? Do we as students measure up to the standards of Citizen- ship? Here is a score card. Give yourself 10 points for each question to which you can truthfully answer “Yes.” 1. Trustworthiness — Do you keep your promises? 2. Self Control — Do you control your tongue and your . temper? 3. Loyalty — Are you loyal to home, your school, and your community? 4. Obedience — Do you obey your father, mother, and teachers promptly and cheerfully? 5. Sportsmanship — Can you win without bragging, and lose without offering excuses? 6. Courtesy — Are you considerate of others? 7. Health — Do you secure the proper amount of sleep, eat the right kind of food, and exercise sufficiently in open air? 8. Team work — Do you get along with other people? 9. Dependability — Can people count on you? 10. Self-reliance — Do you think for yourself? Reprint from “The Skipper” of Hyannis .
