IDEAS
FROM
OTHER
EDITORS
From the Desert Journal,
Joshua Tree, California: Ever see
a collection of sea shells? Pretty,
unique, individual oddities, yes.
Utterly without value? A serious
collector of stamps, coins, snuff
boxes or match folders will tell
you differently. Pride of posses
sion is part of the spur of interest,
but the rarest gem of all to an
avid collector Is the goal of com
pletion he forever seeks. He is
constantly reaching out for new
items which bring him nearer that
goal.
Our success in living can rest
on our ability to collect rare gems
of human relationship. We may
attach no real value to these qual
ities until we consciously start to
add them to our collection. At first
these gems may seem mere words
tossed about by a hack writer of
a newspaper column. But the
value is there if a true under
standing of their meaning is
sought.
Lei’s take a few sample words
out of the collector’s file. Toler
ance, kindness, friendship, sympa
thy, generosity, wisdom. Preacher
stuff and food for do-gooders you
say. Pretty words, but bringing
no nourishment to a hungry stom
ach. But let’s look further.
Plenty more words of value are
lying around if we care to look
for them. As we collect more, we
find there are guide words which
may aid us, such as awareness,
alertness, open-mindedness and
un t ^standing. The more we col-
lec% the nearer we come to the
goal of completeness in living.
But we must learn to cherish
these things aa> a collector.
How to relate our coUection to
everyday living? That’s easy.
Every day we meet people. We
exchange ideas as a collector ex
changes one stamp for another he
desires. We live, or at least we
should, by an exchange of what
we possess. The more we possess
that is worth while as a medium
of interchange, the greater suc
cess we achieve.
A pauper is truly a man with
nothing to say, nothing to do and
without anything to contribute tc
his fellow men.
Where is our market of exchange
for trading these rare gems in
human relationship? To name a
few readily at hand-there is neigh
borhood life, our churches, clubs,
our boards of community service,
our chambers of commerce, even
the.next man we meet, friend or
stranger. All these offer an oppor
tunity for displaying our real
pride as collectors.
WASHINGTON AND
SMALL BUSINESS
By C. WILSON HARDER
Although the Congress reluc
tantly renewed foreign give
away spending for another
year, there are strong indica
tions that if the vote had been
delayed until now, the whole
sorry mess might have been
eliminated.
* * *
Probably
there have
been few
things that
liave hit Cong-
ressmen as
hard as the
action taken
in their re
cent Belgrade
meeting of
the 24 so- C. W. Harder
called “neutral” nations.
• • •
For they established without
a doubt that they are extreme
ly neutral against the United
States
* * *
With a callous disregard of
morality, Russia had started
resumption of nuclear testing
in the atmosphere. No one yet
knows what damage there can
be to human life resulting from
radioactive debris floating
around in the air. Scientists of
repute warn it could be quite
serious; in fact they are more
inclined to believe it represents
danger than not. And obviously,
the Russians don’t lack in sci
entific brains.
* * *
Yet despite this weight of in
formed opinion, the Russians,
like mad dogs, resumed ex
ploding in the atmosphere, and
it is a certainty that if such
pollution damages, it will not
distinguish between the peo
ples of the committed West,
and the peoples of the “neu
tral’’ nations.
fc) Nttlontl Kedentlon of Independent Business
But despite this fact, in their
Belgrade meeting the leaders
of these “neutral” nations were
very chary of saying anything
unkind about the Kremlin,
more than critical about the
United States.
* # *
To make their stand even
more startling, these nations in
the past few years have re
ceived over $6 billion from
American taxpayers in foreign
give away programs.
* * *
The two leaders of this “neu
tral” bloc, Tito’s communist
Yugoslavia, and India, have
almost evenly divided between
them $4 billion.
* • •
Voting through the National
Federation of Independent Bus
iness, the nation’s independent
business people have consis
tently opposed this scheme of
seeking to win friends by sub
mitting to blackmail.
* * *
The cumulative wisdom of
this viewpoint seems now well
established by course of events.
* * *
In fact, the recipient of some
of the American starry-eyed
give-away programs appear to
go far out of their way, and far
beyond logic, to be critical of
the United States.
* * *
When Russian actions forced
the U. S. to resume under
ground testing, which does not
pollute the atmosphere, the
head of the government of In
dia came up with a nifty.
* * *
He disregarded Russian pol
lution of the atmosphere, but
said the U. S. was doing worse
because it was “disturbing
Mother Earth.” This is what
$2 billion bought.

United States Naval Academy
One of the country’s leading educational institutions. The United
States Naval Academy is located on the banks of the Sevem*River
in Annapolis, Maryland, just 30 miles east of Washington, D. C.
The Naval Academy campus
comprises 365 acres, on which are
219 major buildings and extensive
drill and playing fields. Of all the
buildings, one stands out as the
center of midshipman activity.
This is Bancroft Hall, the largest
college dormitory in the world,
which houses the entire Brigade
of Midshipmen. Besides living
quarters for the midshipmen, this
hall houses tailor and barber
shops, post office, medical and
dental quarters, soda fountain,
bookstore, recreation rooms, a
tremendous galley, and a vast
mess hall. Bancroft Hall is named
after George Bancroft, who was
Secretary of the Navy when the
Academy was founded in 1845. His
diligent effort had much to do with
the establishment of the Naval
Academy. Other buildings on | Marine Corps
campus are named after various
naval heroes. TTie grave of John
Paul Jones is in a crypt beneath
the dome of the chapel.
The Brigade of Midshipmen
numbers about 3,600. These men
are subjected to rigorous aca
demic and physical testing be
fore admission to the academy.
After admission they are faced
with a curriculum which requires
the highest degree of effort and
intelligence. The academic, phys
ical, and military training at the
Academy are, to say the least,
exacting.
Upon completion of their fourth
year, midshipmen are awarded
Bachelor of Science degrees and
a commission as ensign in the
United States Navy or a commis
sion as second lieutenant in the

The University of Dayton, Ohio, traces its foundation to the year 1881
when a small band of missionaries from France, members of the
Society of Mary, founded an institution of learning on 180 acres of
“Dewberry Farm,” purchased from Mr. John Stuart
The institution was incorporated
in 1878, and in 1882, by an act of
the General Assembly of the State
of Ohio, was empowered to grant
degrees under the title of St
Mary’s Institute. After 1912, it
was known as St Mary’s College
and was so designated until 1920
when it was raised to the rank of
a University and assumed its
present title.
Today the University of Dayton,
with a combined enrollment of
more than 6,000 students, and a
total staff of 400 full-time faculty
members and part-time instruc
tors, is the second largest Inde
pendent institution of higher learn
ing in Ohio and the eleventh larg
est Catholic university in the
country.
It includes a College of Arts and
Sciences, a Graduate School of
Arts and Sciences, a School of
Business Administration, a School
of Education, a School of Engi
neering, and a Technical Institute
and awards 21 different
baccalaureate, and master’s de
grees.
Though under Catholic auspices,
the University has a student body
made up of men^and women of
many different faifhs. The under
graduate student body is the larg
est of any private college in the
State of Ohio.
Purely academic and scientifte
researchers well as commercial
ly and governmentally sponsored
research are carried on through
the University’s Research Insti
tute, which includes one of the;
country’s most extensive non
governmental computing centers-
In addition to its day classes,
the University also operates a
sizeable evening and summer ses
sion. Specialized programs are
conducted through the Communi
ty Service Center.

Texas Christian University ^
. Texas Christian University, now in its 88th year, is situated in a
beautiful residential district in the southwest section of Fort Worth, a
growing city of 375,000 population located “where the West begins”
in Texas. 6 v'
The school’s history begins in Thorp Spring, Tex., where in 1873
“AddRan Male and Female CoUege” was founded “out of a conse
crated desire to inculcate character training in the New South after
the Civil War.” Founding fathers were brothers Addison and Ran
dolph Clark and 13 students attended the first year.
In 1895, the school was moved
to Waco, and the name changed
to Texas Christian University in
1902. After a devastating fire and
upon invitation of a group of pub
lic-spirited citizens of Fort Worth,
TCU found its permanent home
on the present campus in 1810,
with an enrollment of 382, a facul
ty of 21, and 3 buildings.
Today, TCU has an enrollment
of some 8500 students, represent
ing all but two states and includ
ing over 50 foreign students from
24 countries. There are some 30
major buildings on campus, with
the physical plant alone estimated
at nearly $27,000,000 and endow
ment resources at $23,000,000.
Eight major divisions include:
AddRan College of Arts and Sci
ences, the School of Business, the
School of Education, Harri® Col
lege of Nursing, the School of
Fine Arts, the Graduate School,
Evening College and Brite School
of the Bible, the university’s grad
uate seminary. All have received
the highest academic accredita
tions.
They offer some 1,400 different
courses in 87 fields of study,
taught by more than 400 faculty
members. Students may worts
toward 20 different degrees and
there are more than 850 graduates
each year.
A privately-supported universi
ty, TCU is affiliated with the
Christian CUorch (Disciples of
Christ).
Dr. M. E. Sadler has been
TCU’s chief administrative officer
for the past 20 years, coming -.s
president in 1941 and being named
the university's first chancellor in
September 1959.
