GOD BLESS AMERICA . . —No dorm meeting at Men’s Hill is complete with oil t several songs. Notice the way LydiaH, Ingram and Bless- ing are putting their hearts into their singing. Living in a dorm is hall of one's college edu- cation, remarked a senior upon being graduated. After four years, one realizes that in addition to scholastic attainments one must learn to adjust him- self to society. Where personalities vary, problems arise. These problems are met and solved by the students themselves. Within the walls of a dorm, students understand one another. They learn to live as a unit. Divergent personalities are molded into a family-like relationship. Roommates soon become brothers or sisters; preceptresses, mothers. The halls echo a neighborly spirit.

 Where the handclasp's a little stronger, where the smile dwells a little longer . . —with all apologies to Arthur Chap- man. that is the Nebraska State Teachers College at Kearney. The school is a friendly one. An atmosphere of comradeship prevails. The fears of the timid freshman, who has forebod- ings of a life lonely and out of place in a bustling educational universe with inner sanctum doors barred, are dispelled the first day. Rather, he inds himself a part of it all. Aloofness, snobbishness, class distinctions and notions of superiority are nonexistant. From the first cheerful salutation to the time that the mortar board and gown are donned, students and proles- sors enioy the most congenial of social relations. Friendships formed—in class, at work, through leisure hour occupation— are undying. It is the College's intangible, but omnipresent, secret of happiness and harmonious association- its friendli- ness.
