"Contagious Christianity" Aa we stand upon the threshold of our 1954 Religious Emphasis Week program, let ua stop ami consider our reason for conducting such services there is a reason, a logical one, a challenging one. For nine months we attend college to increase our Intellectual knowledge, we become more mature In social settings and launch ourselves toward* a professional career. We attend church on Sunday and prayer services in the evening, hut sometimes our attendance becomes only a habit. A full college program need.-, a period of religious emphasis where the entire student body can worship together and re-dedicate themselves to Christian ideals. We attend many
of the same classes, enjoy the same social functions, but Worshipping together can bring us even closer to each other. "Contagious Christianity" has been chosen for our theme thi^i year, one that should live not only during a week, but every day. If Religious Emphasis week is to be a success we must begin now to prepare for it. Remember that there are many who will fail to take part in the program unless you encourage their interest. Religion is everybody's job! The V. W. C. A. urges you to support the Religious Emphasis program as fully ;is possible. With the prayer and participation of everyone it is our hope that it will he the most effective week on campus this year. Your Y. W. C. A.
Again The Dining Hall Now that we have raided the dining hall problem, we cannot allow it to be avoided or dropped. However! the purpose of this editorial is not to present further complaints berating either the dining hall or the students. Wje feel that the unpieaslintness of the situation may be atttributed to both the dining hall and the students and that the Rotunda's presentation of those problems which we described in our last editorial is completely justifiable. During these two weeks we have received many favorable comments and a few dissenting remarks concerning our stand on both dining hall meals and student behavior. The problems have been considered time and again by Student Standards, the home department, and students, and suggestions have been made for their Improvement. Bo far, we Can see very little that has been done to institgate improvements either by dining hall or student body. It is. then, our purpose to present a few suggestions, ask some question!, and request tome answers. And, first of all, we urge that the dining hall stall and the college students be willing to work cooperatively. Complaints are caused by both,
one disagrees with the other, and so on. We'll have to forgel our own injuries for a while and try working together. Our first suggestions is thai the Rotunda Itself, classes, .Sororities, and other groups promote the discussion of the problem. Too often sonic constructive project

over the whole thing at your tables, present criticisms to the Rotunda, Ellen Porter and the dining hall committee, and take the job seriously. Sophomores, begin now to realize that this a junior-year task. As individuals, you and the rest of the student body, recognize the situation and approve our stand, but nothing will ever come of it, unless you—and all of us>—are willing to think and speak out. Of the dining hall staff, we ask "why?" The complaints we've made are certainly not new, and they are obviously true. Are they due to insufficient funds, inadequate equipment or disinterest? We don't know, That's why we sincerely ask that you present your side of the question. One commendation we should like to make right now. Our cheers to Alpha Kappa (JaJiima for their school spirit and interest shown by the purchase of a
good
public address system for the dining hall. Already many appreciative comments have been heard and so have the announcements. You made a big first step toward dining hall
improvement.
But of the rest of the student body, we also ask "why?" The unpleasant attitude, confusion, and griping are certainly apparent. Are they due to poor home training, lack of maturity or disinterest? Xow's your chance—the Rotunda's next issue is February 17 and letters of discussion (signed) will be welcomed for publication. It is up to you now.

01 Honor Examination time is a time of testing. Examination! are not designed to 'catch' unwiley student. Nor are they a contest of wits between the instructor and student. Rather they should be looked upon as an opportunity to pull together loose ends, to organise and to synthesize. The wise instructor provides the means for demonstrating smh mastery, and he is the final arbiter. At l.ongwood, examinations take on added EMI because they provide the occalon tor testing our vaunted Honor System. Each time the Honor Code survives this test, it emerges stronger than before.

Don't buy any extra food Scrounge off your next - door neighbor. After all. who could refuse a starving classmate? 3. For freshmen—if you want good, sound advice on how to study for exams, ask anyone but the upperclassmen. They're still trying to find out, too. 4. For freslunen and sophomores—for one week a year you have unlimited lights. Use them! Stay up all night, even if you don't have to study. »if you don't, this is no place for you'. You can play or write letters, anything, but stay up. That way you won't feel any pain during your exam ('cause you'll be sleeping.) For juniors and seniors—do just the opposite, go to bed early and let the frosh and sophs feel superior for just one week. 5. Don't stay in any exams more than one-half hour. If you do, you'll get muddled. (If you don't you'll flunk but you probably will anyway.) 6. If you think an exam is unfair, protest. Demand that the professor change the questions to suit you. He likes to make out new exams, especially since It only took him two weeks to make out the one for your course. 7. Always remember to thank the professor for the wonderful exam and let him know you really enjoyed it. After all, a little By PAT C.ANTRKU, "apple polishing" might get you a "D" instead of an "P".

You get the world's best tobaccos, selected by Chestt rfit-Id buyers with the help of our research chemists . . . and proven, by actual tobacco tests, to be highest in quality.
Before we buy tobaccos for Chesterfields, our laboratories take samples from all over the tobacco country and analyze them for low nicotine content. The extra care pays off! In recent "tobacco tests," the six leading brands of cigarettes were chemically analyzed. The findings: of them all, Chesterfield is highest in quality — low in nicotine.
A group of Chesterfield smokers have been examined by a doctor every two months for almost two years. 45% of them — on tin a v. rage — have In i n smoking Chestt ifii Id for well over 10 years. The doctor's examinations show ... no adverse effects to the nose, throat and sinuses from smoking Chesterfield. Consider Chesterfield's record with these smokers — with millions of other smokers throughout America.
