REV. STEIN OF HORNELL SPEAKS BEFORE
ASSEMBLY
Students Listen to Excellent Talk On "Life's Rewards and Life's
Investments''—Mayor Davis Greets Students
The students and faculty were for- tunate last Wedsesday in having as their guests Rev. Burnside Stein of Hornell, accompanied by Mayor Davis of that city. Mayor Davis was one of the hardest workers who helped to put Hornell dry this year. After a few well chosen words by the Mayor, the students listened to a most worth while and interesting address by Rev.
Stein who is pastor of the Park Methodist Episcopal church in Hor- nel. The topic which Rev. Stein spoke on "Life Investments and Life's Rewards," which was a most appropri- ate subject for the college men and women. As Rev. Stein said, the prin- ciple governing "Lfie's Investments and Rewards" are wrapped up snug- ly in a little statement, made by Jesus: "Give and it shall be given unto you." We make the biggest in- vestment which can be made when we invest our accomplishments, oppor- tunities and desires into a life of ser- vice. Therewith if our convertment, its success, can be measured by the success of our life's work. "We are here to invest our lives in the world and not in ourselves," Rev Stein said.
We as college men and women made an investment when we came to col- lege. Whether or not it proves to lie a good investment can be decided only as we have done our work to the best of our ability. When we have finished our college course we must make another investment, the invest- ment of our life work. The suc- cess with which we have executed our work here will determine largely the kind of investment we will make after college. "The very biggest thing" Rev. Stein said, which we have to do," is the daily work which we are called upon to do. "If we don't find satisfaction in the work we are doing now, if we don't find our re- ligion in this, it won't be found at all."
As to life's Rewards, this too, is ex- plained in the statement "Give and it shall be given unto you." Your re- ward shall follow your investment.
A CORRECTION
In last week's Sun it was stated that Director Wright of the Agricultural School was one of fourteen men to represent this state, who Were to go into Canada for the summer and observe the way which that country has of using her crippled and wounded soldiers in farm work. We are very glad to make the correction that Di- rector Wright represents New York State; the remaining thirteen men represent different states in the Union.

DONALD HAGAR IS PRESIDENT OF NEW YEAR'S STUDENT
SENATE
At a joint meeting of the new and retiring Student Senates held recent- ly, Donald Hager '19 was elected president of next year's Senate. This position is one of the most honorable and responsible which any student may hold, and we think that the elec- tion of Don Hagar has been a wise one. Hager has been a prominent student during his three years in col- lege, both in scholarship, athletics and nearly every other phase of student activities. He has served on the Sen- ate this year, and he has filled his position honorably.
Frank Lobaugh '19 was elected by the Student body to the Senate last Wednesday, to fill the vacancy left by Adolph Meier.
CONSUMERS' LEAGUE ELECT NEW OFFICERS
A meeting of the Consumers' League was held last Wednesday morning after Assembly, when next year's officers were elected. The results of the election are as follows:
President—Florentine Hamilton '19 Vice President — Catherine Lang- worthy '20
Secretary—Iola Lanphere '20 Treasurer—Hazel Croxford '21.
Miss Mildred Place, who gradu- ates from the School of Ceramics this year, has been highly honored by Chicago University by being chosen as its teacher of Ceramics for its com- ing session of summer school. This is a very lucrative position, and friends extend congratulations to Miss Place.
MOVIES
Last Wednesday evening was the
! last movie show to be given in Alfred ' this year. The pictures were fine, ' and the Glee Club favored the audi- ' ence with several patriotic selections
| before the "big show" began. As last week was Rew Cross week, the
! entire proceeds from the movies were turned over to the Red Cross.
ASSEMBLY NEXT WEDNESDAY
The Assembly hour next Wednes- day will be given over to the Conser-\
! vation Course. Several members of the class are to give short talks on some phase of conservation, and the
1 hour is sure to be a most interesting
1
i.nd beneficial one.
FRESHMAN SIGMA ALPHA PRO- GRAM THE BEST OF THE
YEAR
On Tuesday evening, May 21, was held the last regular meeting of the
Sigma Alpha Gamma. The program was in charge of the Freshman girls, and a most delightful Irish play, "The Twig O'Thorn" was presented. Mar- garet Banghart, as a prologue, said that the "Twig O'Thorn" is an Irish folk lore play in two acts. The scene is county Galloway. The first act takes place on the first day of March, and the second on the first day of No- laid in the cottage of Nessa Leig, in vember of the same year. November was supposedly the month of spirit revels, of witches, goblins and fairies of all sorts. The thorn was a curse because of the part it played in the crucifiction. And on the plucking of a twig of thorn, and the mysteries of Irish superstitution, the plot of the play is based.
The caste is as follows:
Nessa Teig Winifred Green Mauria, her neighbor Betty Fassett Oonah, Nessa's granddaughter
Isabelle Mack Angus Aaran, Oonah's lover
Emma Dinsmore Aileel, the poet Ruth Stillman Father Ryan, the priest
Amy VanHorn Fairie Child Ada Walsh Kathleen, neighbor Amy VanHorn Sheemus, neighbor Doris Wilbur The play was a very great success, and the decision of the judges, that the program presented by the Fresh- men was the best of the year, re- ceived hearty accord*. As a result of the decision, the Freshmen will be entertained by the rest of the college girls at a party in the near future.
Word has been received from Wil- lard J. Sutton '17, that he has arrvied
safely in France.
MARION ROOS ELECTED PRESI- DENT OF THE JUNIOR CLASS
The Juniors held a class meeting last Wednesday morning, when offi- cers for the coming year were elected.
Miss Marion Roos was elected presi- dent of her class for next year. The other officers are as follows:
Vice President—Spicer Kenyon Treasurer—Elmer Mapes Secretary—Louis Ackerly

STUDENT RED CROSS DRIVE
On Saturday evesing at Firemens Hall, the members of the Student Red Cross presented two plays to aid the local Red Cross in their money campaign. The money taken in at the door, together with that from the sale of ice cream cones and pop corn, netted a total of about $35 for the organization. The final play given was called "The Thirteenth Star,"
and was of a patriotic nature.
The caste:
Carol Mason Wilifred Baxter Eleanor Ames Helen Redmondf Aunt Lucy Marie, the maid Maggie O'Flynn
Margaret Neuisinger Inez Huntley Margaret Banghart During the interval between the two plays Miss Phillips sang several delightful songs accompanied by Prof.
and Mrs. Remsen. The final number on the program was "The Twig O'Thorn," given by the Freshmen girls. The plays were very well pre- sented and heartily enjoyed.
Y. M. C. A.
The Y. M. C. A. last evening was led by A. L. Gaiss, his subject being
"Education." Al showed everything that changed an individual in any sense was education. It might be the roar of r. lion or the buzz of a bee, and a person could not become educated by hovering over the con- sents of a book.
The talk was followed by a lively
•liscussion in which everyone pres- ent took a part, giving his idea of education and what a college educa- tion really meant to a man.
Next Sunday will be the last meet- ing of the year, an excellent progra.m has been arranged. Everybody please try and come and help us make this a record meeting.

THE FIAT BOARD HOLD AN INFORMAL
BANQUET
Miss Marion Roos Is The Next Fiat Editor
Last night the last Fiat Board meet- ing of the year was held, and at this meeting the editor of the Fiat for 1918-19 was elected. Miss Marion Roos '20, was unanimously elected the next Fiat Editor. Miss Roos has been a most satisfactory member of the Fiat staff this year, and under her leadership we are assured of the success of next year's Fiat.
The scene of last night's board meeting was Peck's Restaurant, and the occasion was that of an informal banquet to the members of the Fiat staff and their Mends. An excellent supper was served by Peck's efficient force. The menu follows:
Veal Birds Mashed Potatoes Creamed Peas

dancing to the music of a victrola,, the meeting adjourned.
DOUBLE WEDDING
Last evening, at the home of Mix and Mrs.. Alfred Stillman occurred?
the marriage of their two daughters,, when Miss Marion Stillman was united in marriage to Sergeant Rob- ert Greene, and Miss Hazel Stillman became the bride of DeForest Tru- man. At six o'clock the ceremony took place under an arch of white flowers and evergreens. President Davis performed the ceremony, using the double ring service. The wed- ding march was played by Prof. Ray W. Wingate, and a vocal solo was;
charmingly rendered by Miss Rutht Phillips.
After the ceremony a light lunch-, eon was served. Only the immedi- ate relatives and friends of the two couples were present.
Mrs. Green graduated from Alfred's College in music in 1913, and at pres- ent is a teacher in the Alfred High- School. Mrs. Truman is a member of the class of 1919. Sergeant Green graduated in the '16 class. He is home for a few days' furlough, and expects to return to camp soon. Mr.
Truman is well known in Alfred. He leaves today for Hoboken, where he is to report, having enlisted as clerk in the Quarter Master's department..
The Fiat extends corigmtailations.
WOMENS' WAR WORK AT ALFf^ECE
At the present time we read wit interest of the war work which wo men in nearly every walk of life are>
doing, and the work of the college women is especially interesting to us.
We think that some of the work which the Alfred college women are- doing is well worthy of mention. Be-.
sides the girls who are filling posl<
1'ons which have heretofore been flil-.
sd by men, there are girls who- are- showing their patriotism in- other- ways. One of the Brick girls has; <fe

WOMEN'S WAR WORK AT ALFRED Continued from page one war garden, which, is being well tend- ed. Three of the Brick girls have for several months been conducting j a successful shoe shining parlor in their rooms. Shampoos may also be had in the same room, and the pro- ceeds are given over to the Red Cross.
Another girl has a manicuring parlor in her room and this money also goes to the Red Cross. Still another girl has for some weeks past, been con- ducting a basketry class. The class meets once a week. A small sum of money is charged for the privilege of taking the basketry lessons, and the money is turned over to the Red Cross. The real spirit was shown by three Freshmen girls last Wednesday, when they rendered their service in Peck's Cafe, spending nearly the whole day in real work. The money which they earned was given to the Red Cross. And so it is that in one way or another Alfred girls are doing their "bit."
In connection with war work, some of the members o£ the Conservation class are considering doing war work on a farm during the summer. No definite plans have yet been arranged for this work, but the work under consideration is on a fruit farm, so that girls without experiecne could do the work successfully.

As next week is the week of final examinations this will be the last issue of the Fiat before Commence- ment. It will be impossible to get the paper out until after the Com- mencement festivities, po the Fiat will appear on Thursday of Com- mencement week.
Last Wednesday the officers of the Consumer's League were elected for next year. The work of the Con- sumer's League here is young as yet.
It is only a few months ago that the League was organized. During this time the work which the League has been doing has not been all that we could wish for. The officers of the League have worked hard to arouse the interest of the students in the work which is so vital that the chaotic conditions which must needs be the
result of the new industrial order caused by the war will not destroy the fine work which the Consumer's League has ficcomplished in the past.
But again we say, that the Con- sumer's League here is a young or- ganization, and now that it has taken root, we can hope for its rapid and prosperous growth. The officers which will execute the work of the Con- sumer's League have been well chosen, and we commend and urge that every- thing possible be done to promote the growth of the Consumer's League here in the large space which it has to grow in.
The suggestion which we are about to make is one that has been made many times before. Nevertheless, it is one which we wish to call attention to again. A stranger who might hap- pen to be present at Assembly on any morning, when the "Star Spangled Banner" or "America" was sung, would be quite apt to gain quite a wrong impression of Alfred's real spirit and patriotism before the sing- ing ended. At first, the ready re- sponse and fine feeling with which our national hymns are sung would be most impresive. Then, as the end of the second, or possibly the third verse draws to an end, the sing- ing is not quite so loud. Still it might be worse. But alas! when we come to the fourth verse, the singing seems muffled. Many of us are at loss, and either stand gazing into empty space or else trying to bluff it with a few
false motions of the lips. It is al- most shameful that we know our 7ia- tional songs no better than we do.
Don't for a minute stretch your im- agination so far as to think that we judge a person's patriotism by his knowledge of the "Star Spangled Ban- ner" or by the kind of patriotic speech that he can make. We are prone to hold such camouflage patriotism in contempt. Nevertheless, it is a poor sort of an American who can't repeat the words of his national song.
Next week is the week of final ex- aminations, and the week will be one of trials and tribulation for everyone, except perhaps, for the few Seniors who are fortunate enough to be ex- empt from exams. The week will be one of trials, not only in regard to a test of your knowledge, but also as a test of your honor. It is a feeling of satisfaction to get a good mark in a final examination. It is a feeling that your efforts have been rewarded.
But is a feeling of even greater satis- faction to have taken an acid test of your honor, and to come out knowing that you have the strength and character to stand the test honorably.
In another column we are printing the Honor System, not merely because it is a provision of the Constitution that we do so, but as a reminder to each and every student of the laws of honor and integrity which he is bound to.
MAURE-LEACH
At the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Leach, at Pawling, N. Y., on May 18th, occurred the mar- riage of Irving Maure and Miss Helen May Leach. The ceremony took place under a bower of lilacs and greens, in the presence of 25 rela- tives and friends, the ceremony be- ing performed by the pastor of the bride, Rev. Cornell of the M. E.
church of Pawling. After the cere- mony a sumptuous wedding supper was served • and Mr. and Mrs. Maure left for a week in New York and vicinity amid showers of rice and confetti.
Mr. Maure is a graduate of the Al- fred School of Agriculture and his friends here extend congratulations.
LAWRENCE COLLEGE W I L L GIVE COURSE IN JOURNALISM
Lawrence College, Appleton, Wis., is to offer at least one new course in Journalism next year. There has been a good deal of discussion about more journalistic work in the col- lege, but until Dr. L. M. Spencer, head of the English Department, an- nounced his intention of offering a course next year, nothing definite has been done.
Under Dr. Spencer's influence there has been an increasing interest in Journalism at Lawrence. The hon- orary journalistic fraternity and sor- ociey have been established and the
"Lawrentian" has been raised to its present high standard, as being one of the best college weekly papers in the country.

BACK UP THE RED CROSS
"There is one thing I want especial- ly to impress on American women,"
says Dr. Esther Lovejoy who has just returned from France where she has been doing Red Cross work, "and that is that they should not go to France to do any work that they can do here. I mean that there are many things—knitted articles, bandages, supplies of all sorts, which can be made here better than they can there.
We have better facilities to work with and the living conditions are very much more comfortable. It is hard for us to realize that over there they must count the cost of food down to the last morsel. It is entirely pos- sible for a woman who could be of real value by doing the same work here to cast more than her work would be worth there. Money doesn't cut any figure there. It isn't as if the woman who longs to help could not do a great work here, because she can, and all that they have over there depends upon the work of American women. They must know that they have our backing and sympathy. An- other thing. Don't send over articles that are of no value—old clothes—old shoes. The cost and space taken up in transportation are too great to make it worth while to send anything that is not good enough so that it is a sacrifice to give it up."
"All these things must be consider- ed if our help is to be truly worth while. It isn't just what we would like to do, but what will help France most, that we should think about. And we are not only helping France, but ourselves. In fact, we are helping ourselves most, because the fight that is won in France will not have to be fought here."
Dr. Lovejoy went to France as a free lance. For the last three months or more she has been working under the direction of the Red Cross.
When asked, "What are the French women doing?" she answered:
"What are they doing? Everything that the men did before the war and everything they would be doing now, and their own work beside. Every- thing necessary that is; all the non- essential work has been cut out.

BACK UP THE RED CROSS Continued from page three
There is no time for anything but the things that count.
"And American women are doing all they can to relieve the French women and children and soldiers.
They are helping with canteens, they are nursing, they are doing a great deal in a financial way to hack up the organizations of the French people, especially for the care of French children. France realizes the value of the child and how much the survival of their nation depends upon saving the children. When you stop to think that for three years the "re- patries," most of whom are little chil- dren, many of them orphans, have been coming through Evian at the rate of a thousand a day, you begin to get a very small idea of what the work for children means. These are the children of the exicted French, and they are too young to be of ser- vice to the Germans. Sometimes their parents are dead, or lost, or worse. The father may be a prisoner of war, and the mother a slave work- ing under the slave-drivers in the rear of the German army. Besides these children there are the little folks whose fathers are at the front, and their mothers working—perhaps in munition factories. Their lot is not so pitiful, but it is sad enough and yet the way the French people are rising to the emergency, and look- ing after these youngsters is simply wonderful."
"As to what we can do—by which I suppose you mean, What can Ameri- can women do, I should say that the first, most obvious thing is to back up the work of the Red Cross, which is backing every other organization, fi- nancially and otherwise, that is doing relief work in France. It is really the foundation upon which most of them rest."

and the meeting was in charge of Julia Wahl and Laura Keegan. "The first bend in the road of life is col- lege," it was said, "although college is only a natural course to which we are helped by all exterior influences.

When you blow in your money foolishly, you help blow out some American soldier's brains—for it is the resources behind the troops that will win this war.
When you waste your substance for some silly, unessential thing, you are wasting more than your substance—you are wast- ing your country.
Think of your quarters and dollars in terms of the blood of your country's defenders—and then waste them if you dare I
A fool and his money are soon parted—from liberty. |
A country saved is a country earned—don't dribble away your country's resources.
It costs more to live in America than in some other coun- tries—but don't you think it is worth it? Help to save the country by saving its physical resources.

out for u s ; we think, we must make decisions, b u t really they a r e not very trying. However, after college the road bends, and t h e r e a r e many paths green to us. Some of us m a y end up on a cross road where we will never be found. It is b e t t e r to have a definite goal and to go ahead—bet- ter to choose what we think is right and then stick to it, cost what it may.
In a college course t h e r e a r e t h r e e curves—from t h e F r e s h m a n to the Sophomore, from t h e Sophomore to the Junior and from t h e Junior to t h e Senior years. Then there is t h e big
^nd. People traveling this road a r e much t h e same, fundamentally a t least. They have t h e same interests, religious ideas, morals. T h e road is not smooth; it is rough to all alike.
And t h e final message of t h e Seniro is—when you come to a stony place, though it seems hard and people fail j to help you, don't be discouraged. Let your obstacles by stepping stones to a stronger life.
The meeting was made even more helpful and inspiring by short talks by other Senior girls.

DO YOU NEED A NEW SUIT OR OVERCOAT?
OF COURSE YOU DO — Good clothes are a necessity—they are a sign of success.
If you don't believe that good dress- ing pays put on one of your old shabby suits and go out and try to do busi- ness with strangers.
You won't get a "look-in."
So look out for your looks.
