LITEI A I Y THROUGHOUT the college year there appears on the features page of the Manitoban expres- sions of student thought and philosophy in the form of prose and poetry. On this page you can find various subjects dealt with by the eager and young student mind. Though some of it might appear nonsensical and foolish, a great part of it burns with deep emotion. All of it, we know, is sincere. So that in future years you may have the oppor- tunity to be again reminded of Manitoban student thought in 1941, we offer you on the following pages a few representative selections. Read them over once, or twice, then leave them for a while, read them over again and you will End that they have a new meaning for you. But, most of all, remember it is Manitoba, and you are part of it. Aubrey Green, the features page editor of the Manitoban has this to say: Sign offfze lima To find some common elements in the numer- ous and varied articles appearing on the features page is a difficult thing. For the articles are not written for a definite purpose or with a specific aim in end. The students, for the most part, have written the articles as a means of recreation and perhaps as a means of diversion. To inspire writ- ing with character, there must be a driving power and a visible end. But, in the articles and poems there are some reflections of our hectic life and materialistic out- look. We have noticed that even in the simplest poems there is some shadow of our youthful dejec- tion and cynical acceptance. In the very sim- plicity of the poetry we see the utter fear that one may be accused of escapism. The articles show that modern writings have greatly influenced the students. Sudden endings in short stories: surprise endings in articles and rough humor in satire all are evident. The poetry is devoid of l8th century padding. and has thrown off all shreds of illusive and hid- den meanings. The thoughts and feelings are clear, precise, simple and accurate. All in all, we have here a cross section of stu- dent Cand, consequently, modern youth? thought and emotional attitude. Taking the features page and the literary supplement, we can get a good View of this thought and attitude. There's a dan- gerous calm present. A calm acceptance of fate -sheer fatalisrn, which easily turns to negative response, Cynicism and disillusionment can be felt. The terrific impact of drastic events have Well left their mark . . .
