Almus Russell Publishes New Article Dr. J. Almus Russell, of the English Department, has recently had an article titled "Grindstone and Whitston e" published in the September issue of the CHRONICLE OF EARLY AMERICAN INDUSTRIES (Worcester , Mass.) Dr. Russell is very inrested in early home industries and ans to include this recent literary ^ achievement in his projected volume of "Forgotten Home Industries. " This article is concerned with the m e t h o d s of sharpening sickles, scythes, draw-shaves, and other implements used on the self-sufficient farms of New England during the last century. Some of the romantic atmosphere involved in keeping farm tools keen-edged and ready for immediate use is captured in the following paragraph from Dr. Russell's essay : "With all of this farm equipment , I always associate certain sounds : the rasping of the blades on the rough grindstone; the melancholy metallic tone of the whetstone as it struck against the steel; the sound of the scythe mowing down the tall thick blades of the meadow-grass; and the protesting click of the blr.de as it chanced to hit a stone in (he deep grass." Collonade To Replace Old College Landmark ; Pro j ect Well Underwa y Day Men 's Assoc. To Sponsor Barn Dan ce Another barn dance is in the offing on Friday night , November 11. The Day Men 's Association, the sponsor for this all - student shindig, promises that this soiree will prove to be one of the feature highspots of th e Fall season 's activities. Before squaring off for the "all men left and honor yore pardners," rounds , a gigantic pep rally and bonfire will be staged. This rustic-minded dance and moraleboosting pep - rally precedes the last football game of the season and everyon e is urged to be on hand to bring the gridiron season to a thumping big climax. As an incidental note , everything 's free. Freshmen Cheer End of Customs Frosh Heave Sigh of Relief As Dinks Vanish on Campus Now that Customs week has vanished into the hazy past , at least three things have been made clear to the Frosh and their "illustrious " upperclassmen. The first : everybody knows the hometown of everybody else; second: it is a proven fact that all Frosh have at least two pairs of shoes; and third: some girls look half human without make-up . Thanks to a month of customs, which might be called a month of "costumes, " many vital statistics of the new underclassmen are known. As we look back on the gruelling nights of lettering 4x6 name cards for Mr. Wyant and one Miss Dixon to destroy at the flick of a staring eye lash, we can al m ost smile, now that it's over. We all agreed that this was one of the more primitive types of torture , but one thing that should have always been in our minds was the fact that this was part of college lif e. This sport of "Who 's the Biggest Schm oo" is a nation-wide tradition , not merely a local fad. We are more fortunate than most Frosh , who at some institutions (not mental) must display half their anatomy to the city folk by wearing gym suits or paj amas in town, or walking barefoot. Whatever the traditions are that we must abide with, we can always point to Danville and say, "At least we didn 't need to wear straight j ackets." B.S.T.C.
