Castle On
the Hill

Yes, there's not much action at
Central now. Except for the VIC
torious basketball games Of the
Minutemen, the past four weeks
have been uneventful.
1t is in these periods Of apparent
cessation Of activities that we may
focus on a purpose which demands
our constant attention. This pur-
pose is of course our education.
At the end of this month the
school year will be half over. This
is the proper way to phrase the
mid-point, half over not another
four and one half months to go.
At this time of the year the grad
uating seniors future Is told by
the means Of mid-year ranks.
Upon this rank the senior must
apply for admission to the various
colleges and universities. With
nothing but low marks to show,
a senior may find the door of
higher education slammed shut in
his face. For some this rank may
elevate their honor point standing.
Everyone wants to make the honor
roll, and high grades are the only
path leading to this honor.
I did not write this column to
warn the seniors. They know what
the under classmen should realize
This rank is only the climax Of
two or three years Of your high
school work.
I think this can be paralleled to
working at job. If you worked
your full forty hours, your pay
will be sufficient. The man who
decided he didn't feel like work.
ing for two days can expect the
payment Of a smaller sum. He
might find this small check ac-
companied by a note telling him
it will be his last check from that
company.
The same is true of a graduate.
A student who has worked hard
finds a great reward in the many
opportunities offered him, but the
less ambitious youngster finds the
check" or diploma his end Of OPP
portunities. If you have done your
best, continue to do so. If not, you
will have to work some "over-
time" to emerge with the proper
total. In examination we find, we
all need to put in some "over-
time"

During Letter Writing Week,
Postmaster General Summer
field suggested that, individ-
uals write at least two letters:
one to a friend or relative
from whom you have not heard
in a long time, and the second
as reply to a friend or rela-

you. He also urged corre-
spondence to people in other
countries as a means of pro-
noting greater understanding
among the people Of different
nations.
AS in previous years, Letter

governors and mayors. With
such a great variety of beauti-
full stationery now available in
department stores and other
retail outlets, Letter Writing

they stood in the registration line
but there were no incidents.
The university announced that
four Negroes had qualified to be
admitted to undergraduate classes

IN
ONE
AR
BY Maurice Duke

A man bought a farm long since
grown over with weeds. At the
end Of the first year, a clergyman
called and complimented the farm
er on how well he and the good
Lord had succeeded in identifying
the place; to which the farmer re-
piled, Thank you, Reverend, and
I'm glad you included me, because
it sure was a mess around here
when the Lord was running it by
himself"
Yes, God helps those who help
themselves" and it is written:
Whatsoever a man soweth, that
shall he also reap" Galatians,
Chapter 8, Verse y.
During this new year, it may be
helpful thus to recall these bits Of
ancient wisdom; for as nuclear as
we are, as far out as Wen ever be,
the reason for our existence re-
mains the same. We are here be-
cause of the irresistible urge to
reproduce.
Helplessly, we arrive in this
world, add what we can to the
general confusion, and then depart
with equal helplessness. The i'm
preston left behind by most of us
usually just about equals the hole
left in a bucket of water after a
clenched fist is withdrawn.
Man, in his incredible ego, has
figured out all sorts of fancy rea-
sons for being here, with paradise
cal goals to match. In his clever
ness, he has risen to dizzy material
heights. BY his own hand, he has
cut his workday down to a third.
He has freed his wife from the
drudgery of the kitchen. His lines
Of communication are complete
He has sixteen hours a day to
himself, and he Is a miserable,
tragic figure, and all because he
has cast aside many precious gems
Of ancient lore.
AS smart as we are, three-sco
and-ten Is still just about the limit.
An objectible glance at the mirror
still reveals one of the lesser beau
ties among Gods creatures. The
excuse for our existence Is still
the same as it ever was: to serve
our Creator by serving our kind
There isn't a soul alive who doesn't
know in his heart that the greatest
satisfaction always comes from
love for and service to others.
And yet, fools that we are, we
envy and hate and despise and de-
ceive. We pity when we should
love. We resent and begrude when
we should respect and admire. We
are sick In our heads, fascinated
by gossip and drool, generating
mediocrity, scorning truth and
light. A craftsman these days is a
weirdie. Integrity is for squares;
tradition, for the birds.
But, you know, to each Of US
there comes eventually a moment
of truth, by the brilliant light Of
which the answers to many ques-
tons become remarkably clear.
Long life is a privilege denied to
many; but life of any length Is
an opportunity to share in the
