ROANOKE COLLEGE.

At the opening of the new session
September II Roanoke College, Salem,
Virginia, will place In operation a new
athletic plan that is intended to serve
the best physical interests OF every stu
dent. There will be a physical direc-
tor who will devote full time to the
task of making every student physically
Mt. His prime duty will be 10 see that
each man is in the best possible physi-
cal condition for his work as a student,
that his best permanent physical de-
velopment is accomplished. and that
healthy interest is, developed In clean
sportsmanlike play In order to attain
these results several medical examina-
lions will be made during the year.
The physical director will endeavor to
ascertain the branch OF athletics for
which the student has the greatest nat
ural ability and to discover the branch
of athletics that will best serve his
needs An effort will be made TO velop
an interest on the part of every stu
dent In voluntary athletics. and formal
gymnasium work at Roanoke will be
given less emphasis than in the past
The new plan OF Roanoke College should
not interfere in any way with major
college sports, although II is expected
to result In less concentration on a few
gifted athletes and wore attention to
the individual needs of the student
body. It is believed that It will nlti-
mately strengthen all athletic teams by
reason of the participation of all men
in some form Of athletics.

Educational Facilities

When we read scientific facts as to
how much fresh air Is consumed In
given time we know that wherever
humanity is huddled closely, as In
schools, theatres, &C., we must, except
where the ventilation is exceedingly gem
erous and distributed efficiently. breathe
over and over the air confined within
the walls holding US until 1t becomes
loathsome and highly injurious.
When we read of the vast sums for
this and that In the city annual budget
we sigh that education hasn't a hrmer
footing as to its needs In the minds OF
our officials.
We sigh and sigh--perhaps we ex-
change TOO bad" and What a pity
with our sympathetic friends-but what
do we do to show that we are alive to
the best interests of the rising genera
ton?
We simply sit back, as IL the inevi-
table has blockaded our pathway to
reformation. IT, like the club women
have cited, we set about changing con-
ditions for the better even politics
couldn't stop US.
We are somewhat like the horse held
to the post by a halter did he know his
strength no rope could hold him. So
with us Our unitedN effort could not
be stemmed nor withheld.
The rising generation have their rights
to even better educational facilities. 1t
belongs to them to be properly placed
for advantageous educational conditions.
We are bound to give them right teach
ing while housed in comfort. II We
deny to them. thinking to atone by
greater good to their successors our at
titude is criminal and we cannot escape
condemnation.
Let us then as members OF the great
human family arouse ourselves to in
dividual responsibility and act rather
than sigh and silently deprecate.
We are prone to think and reason
that our educational institutions are so
fine In system conduct and result that
, reform or even Improvement Is not to
command our attention but upon seri-
Gus reflection and conscientious investi-
CATION as well as the measuring up OF
, accomplishment we find many beckon-
ing hands toward possible reform.
The passing years have wrought mar
vellous changes in educational advan-
tages. and that fact gives Us hope by
analogy that coming years shall carry
| forward the great work of increasing
educational facilities.
Professors and teachers labor with
faithful assiduity. Could they be aided
by the personal interest and coopera-
ton OF the fathers and mothers OF their
charges how much lighter would be
their task and how much greater would
be the good accomplished.
Shall we continue our thoughtless
drifting. becoming 'driftwood" indeed?
Or shall we become valuable citizens,
dive to all interests of humanity. but
particularly alive TO that OF providing
our descendants with educational faclli-
ties that shall succeed each other In
practical worth?
We cannot set the matter aside. but
must each do our own part. Would
every one awake to responsibility the
problem would then be solved and our
young would receive every advantage
possible In educational facilities
Hasten that day Of millennium!

"HB attendance at the Academy Of
St. Joseph, Brentwood. N. Y. for
the last term was unusually large,
and the results at the close of the
scholastic year were more than ordlnar-
lily gratifying. OF the 2sb students on
register thirty received graduating hon.
ors, the largest finishing class registered
In st. Joseph's annals. Tho last closing
exercises were highly commended, not
only in references to the excellence OF
the programme but also on account Of
the attractive appearance Of tho whole
student body.
In 1918, FOR tho first time, the grad
yates donned tho white cap and gown.
The change proved effective. and not only
the members Of the class Of 1918 fol-
lowed the example Of their predecessors,
but n uniform for the entire school was
proposed and adopted. with the kind CO.
operation Of parents and guardians.
Besides the gold medal conferred on
a senior student for proficiency In Chris
ton doctrine, several pupils who reached
100 per cent. in other clauses received
special prizes for catechism. Bible and
church history.
In addition to the honors conferred by
the academy the following testimonials
of proficiency were also won In the re-
gents examinations: Sixteen academic
diplomas, twelve advanced, four classical
and three 10S counts.
The general excellence medal was won
by a pupil celebrating her thirteenth
commencement at st. Josephs. The
