FOREWORD

The Student Government Association, based on powers
and laws granted by the President and Faculty, has control
of all matters pertaining to the conduct and social life of
the students. Each student should learn to appreciate that
the least disregard of the rules on her part means extra care
upon her fellow students, who, though conscientiously as-
suming office under the Association, have yet come to col-
lege to enjoy and make use of the advantages that La-
Grange College offers. The life and work of the college is
based on the Honor System, and this system applies not only
to the rules and regulations concerning conduct, but to
scholastic work as well.

To learn to live honorably and unselfishly in a communi-
ty and to share in the responsibility of the government is a
part of the broader education for which we come to college.
We ask of each student her hearty cooperation. We hope
our Student Government Association will succeed in helping
its students be intelligent citizens and thinking individuals.

HINTS TO FRESHMEN

Begin well. We're here to help you, and you to help
yourself.

Remember we do not know all you can do, so show us
by going out for all college activities.

The student Government is to help you, not catch you.

Remember that we have all been Freshmen ourselves,
and don't hesitate to call on us.

LaGrange has the honor system in Student Government.

If you don't know, ask. Curious Freshmen make wise
Sophomores.

The faculty is waiting to like you, so give them the op-
portunity.

The Dean's List is a place of honor.

Always introduce your guests to the Dean, of Women.

When leaving college "sign out" and when returning
"sign in." It pays.

This is the place to make friends, so don't go around
with one girl exclusively.

Remember that you reflect your home.

Remember that you are here to work. Each neglected
task makes the next one harder.

Honor is too dear to be compromised for popularity, or
for the fear of being unpleasant.

Remember that your health is important; take care of

it.

Don't come to school prejudiced; you'll like it.

A freshman who can smile will go further than one
who cannot.

You'll never like anything until you try it.

Pay on time all dues. You are not a full fledged mem-
ber of any organization unless you do.

23

Don't be afraid to make mistakes. You can be a Fresh-
man only once.

Remember to read the bulletin boards each day.
Every one needs a white dress.

Remember that appropriate street clothes should be
worn in town.

Begin well. Bad work the first semester may handicap
you through the whole year.

PLEASE REMEMBER

To see the Dean of Women during her office hours.
Not to leave the dining hall until excused by the hos-
tess of the table.

To aid in keeping the college and the grounds in order.
Class spirit is fine, but college spirit is better.
To clean your room each morning.

That absolute quiet and courteous attention is expect-
ed in chapel.

That your vote is an expression of your opinion and
should be cast with careful and consideration.

Not to talk from dormitory windows.

Dress formally for concerts and public recitals.

Do not appear on the campus in shorts, swim suits, or
house coats.

Carry Coca-Cola bottles to senior store.

Do not drink Coca-Cola's or eat in lobbies, on porches,
or in. the library.

Any library book checked out on your name for an-

up a fine for you. Let your friends check out books for
themselves.

ATTENTION NEW GIRLS!
WELCOME TO L. C.

First Things To Learn College Songs

L-a-G-r-a-n-g-e
RAH!

Oh, L. C. of '41,

To thee we pay homage true;

We are thy daughters loyal

In all that thou wouldst have us do.

We cast ourselves before thee;

We raise thy anthems to the sky,

L. C. of '41;

We spead thy glory far and wide.

Come lift your voices and sing to L. C.

La Grange, here's to you!
I'll praise her traditions and glory anew,

LaGrange, here's to you!

37

Here's to old L. C. and here's to her fame,
Here's to the women who honor her name,
Here's to the red and black always the same,
LaGrange, here's to you!

Oh, L. C. will shine tonight!

L. C. will shine!

Shine in her beauty bright

All down the line.

She's all dressed up tonight;

That's a good sign!

When ths sun goes down,

And the moon comes up

L. C. will shine!
But if you want my heart to burst wide open
Just mention L. C. days;

Just start me thinking of those girls down yonder

And those L. C. ways;

Where the girls all seem so happy

And they make everybody glad;

There's where I want to go

Because I love 'em so.

Fve been thinking of those good old days gone by.
Oh, how I'd like to be back
Down on L. C. Way.

I'd like to wander with you up that hillside

And there I'd like to stay;

I want to see all the girls

And hear the latest news;

But maybe you don't know

About those doggone L. C. blues

Oh, I've got 'em,

Say, I've got 'em,

I've got the L. C. blues.

38

ALMA MATER

Hail to thee, our Alma Mater;

Guardian of our days;
For thy spirit never failing

We would sing thy praise.
High aloft we hold thy banner,

Ever loyal, true;
Hail to thee our Alma Mater,

Hail to thee LaGrange.
In thy mighty grove of learning,

Wisdom's path weVe sought;
High upon thy lofty hilltop

Visions have we wrought.
From our hearts we sing the chorus.

Let the sound prolong!
Hail to thee, our Alma Mater,

Hail to thee, LaGrange.

L. C. ON THE HILL

Oh! It's L. C. on the Hill

That we love and always will,

Because she has our hearts and spirits too,

She spurs us on in all we do.

Oh, we respect her and her past.

May her glory ever last.

So here's to the red and black we cheer,

To LaGrange we're glad we're here.

Elizabeth Reed
