LOCK HAVEN, PA., TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1942

This Way O u t
Every profession—every vocation, even—has it's cant.
We have found that constant association with anything,
even jargon, becomes tiresome. From these two premises
we would like to draw the conclusion that we're pretty sick
of some of the phrases that are thrown around by educators.
The one that comes to our mind is "out in the field." If we
had a pound of coffee for every time an instructor has said
soj^thing like this, "You'll find out differently when you
get out in the field," why, we could just sneer at Leon
Henderson. We can't remember, but at first it must have
semed picturesque. Now when ever a teacher mentions
"the field" we get an inane vision of a meadow with buttercups or daisies or some such wild flowers waving in the
breeze. The next time an instructor mentions "the field" I
hope he won't be too surprised to see us get up and leave the
class. Not anger, you understand, we're just wandering off
±0 look for "the field."
A little girl we know wandered into a roomful of adults
the other day. In one hand she clutched a tightly closed bag
of candy; in the other she held several pieces of aforementioned stuff. Silently she passed around the room doling out
a piece to each person. Then quietly she left the room. We
wondered if she was motivated by childish caution or if this
was just another evidence of the changes wrought by the
rationing system.

I stopped at the corner, an island
of silence in a sea of motion. Fifth

above me in the stars. The lights

The smell of unburned

that it is expert and artistic writing, deeply vivid.
