Gillette, in another column on thin page contains a numi)e,' of good sug- gestions from whicb Mount Vernon could benefit. As one who has driven many uliles in other states, the writer has long thought that Mount Ver- non, Cornell college and local lulsi- nesses catering lo the tourist trade do not take full advantage of the advertising possibilities offered. Strangers on sight seeing tours like to know what they are seeing. Attractive signs at the city linlits could announce that Mount Ver- non was a fine residential town and that the ulotorist will pass the Col nell campus. In line with Mr. Gillette's sug- gestion of taking the slow moving traffic fronl the main highways we have long thought that tile should- ors on Iowa primary roads should lie wider. They should lie wide enough for horse drawn vehicles and wide enough for a motorist to safely change a tire. Rather than raid primary road funds we tllink primary road nloney could be well spent in ulaking the heaviest tra- veled primary roads safer. Hitler's last act in carving up (Tzeeho-Slovakia has ended the appeasement policies and has con- vinced the democracies, that they must decide where they will nlake their stand against the nlonster Business Mgr. - Margaret Siggins Senior Reviews - \Vallacc lAttell Special Features --Vivian Tonne. l'atri('ia Mitchell, Ardis Stinger, ('orncliu Brooks, Helen Culbert- 14on. l{eporters- Marian Fisher, Peggy Ilerriug, Marilyn Scarbrough, ~'Itlrlila .Jan(" }{ogors, Jeanne Slll- livan l,cona l,'liison, Merrill Pit- iik, Mary MaeGl'egur, I Sp(ll't~ Jiin I,]yrc, Arlo E'llison EDIIORIAL Rationalization is defined in psy- chology as the process of making actions or opinions appear reason- able which are not reasonable but dictated by emotion. By this means we invent reasons for doing what we want to do and for believing what we want to believe. This perhaps is one of the most common and universal bad habits of everyone. So much hinges on rationalization that everyone does, it and knows at the time he is do- ing it, but it is still difficult to curb such a habit it is so conven- ient. If we think back perhaps we can recall such a short time ago as yesterday or today that we ration- alized. Last night for instance there was studying to be done, but we brought the wrong book home or we forgot our pen; besides there was a good movie that really was very educational so we thought we might just as well attend that. We know in our mind that this was the wrong thing to do so we grope wildly around in our store of men- tal excuses for something to make our actions reasonable. Suddenly we think of the fact that we have a study hall tomorrow and that makes it all legitimate and off we go to the movies conscience dear for the moment. In the light of the new day, we realize that this was definitely time wasted to go to the movie or what- ever took up our time and we really should have studied in spite of our groundless excuses. We'll repeat this error again and again but the next time, why not curb that impulse? SENIOR REVIEW Howard Orms "Moosie" came to Mount Vernon in the fifth grade and has been an outstanding student since then. In athletics, "Moosie" has been outstanding in football, basketball, and track. Last year in track he took second place in the conference meet. second in the district, and sixth in the state mile run. His best time was 4:35:5 which is ex- ceptional. He has been a member of chorus for four years and has been in sev- eral operettas, having leading parts in two of them. He has also been a member of the student patrol. He is a member of the "M" Club and dramatics club, and has been in several plays, including the ju- nior class play last year. He has also been a stage hand and handy man on most of the crews for re- cent plays. He is a member of the Chalk Mark staff and vice president of the senior class. He coached the junior high foot- ball and basketball teams this year and hopes to become a coach some really go for the Ted Shawn danc- ers, especially the physiques. Noticed how all the senior girls anticipate Grex. Well Here's wish- ing you luck. Overheard a junior telling a sen- ior about her new Easter outfit. "Well dear. Mine's all complete except for a new suit, shoes, hat gloves, purse, and hose. But have the dearest new lace hank that I am building my outfit around." According to figures the faculty ought to play basketball more often. Incidentally, why aren't they play- ing the seniors?

SOLVING THE ITNLICENSFI) DOG PROBLEM We read with hearty approval the action of our Madison county supervisors to wage a war of ex- tinction on unlicensed dogs and to deny the benefits of the dmnestic animal fund to th})se who then]- selves harbor an unlicensed dog. We strongly suspect that the Madi- son county supervisors have set an example that will be widely follow- ed in Iowa. We have always been a dog lover. As a small boy we had something of a reputation as a dog trainer. But we have no use for the unlicensed dog. Also we have repeatedly seen sheep slain, man- gled and terrified by outlaw dogs, not one of which bore a collar an( license number. I~t's support the supervisors. Let's also support the dog tax col!ectO.r if one is appoint- ed.--Nd Smith' in Winterset Madi- son(an. LET'S SELL FRANCE THE AIRPLANES Well, we sell scrap iron to Japan to kill the Chinese; we sold Italy the oil with which she won the war with Ethiopia• So why not sell France all the airplanes she can pay for? Regardless of wheth- er the president said it or not, our frontier is the Rhine river, and all the obstacles we can pile up be- tween the Atlantic sea board and the Rhine is all the better for us. The stronger we make France and England, the less we have to fear from Germany and Italy.--Eagle Grove Eagle. THF GIIO%VTH OF I()%VA III:IiEAITCRAOV Ed M. Smith.

To learn more about the duties of the superintendent and principal in their own school, the first grade traveled to the high CLASS NEWS The physics class got quite "shock" while studying electricity Tuesday. They joined hands while electricity was run through the chain. Richard Dvorak and Phelps Man- ning should apply for jobs as guides. They both did very well in showing the first graders around the high school. If you see clowns, dolls, or old men and women running around the halls, don't be surprised as it is only the speech class working on "make-up." When a sophomore was asked how the Latin class was getting along she replied, "Oh, it's the same dry old stuff". Mr. Oakland has been helping prepare the string section of the orchestra for the contest. PINGY NEWS All school table tennis, or better known as ping pong, tournaments start this week. First there will be girls' singles, boys' singles, then' doubles and last mixed doubles. The faculty will have tournaments also, which will he of interest to every student. Let's all get out and get behind the ball! HAVE YOU NOTICED? The speed demons in school. (Typing, I mean.) The tie Dick wore to school. (The first this year.) The bronze pins given by Mr. Hawker for speed in typing. Connie S's long hair. The feather in Jeanne's hair. Arlo's jaunty walk. GOSSIP Miss Hughes was out until 2:50 a.m., the other night. (Taking her sister to the train.) Mark admits he simply couldn't miss eight questions on one simple history test. Are Martha Jane's eyes failing at such an early age? Marj. Joy got a lovely new com- pact for her birthday. Boys may scorn dancing but let it be known to them that girls school building for a sort of "tour a of learning". While they were vis- iting the high school, Phelps Man- ning and Richard Dvorak acted as guides, explaining the uses of the different rooms. On their return to the Ward School, the children wrote a story about their visit. They also made a list of the duties of Mr. Lindsley and Mr. Carl. and drew pictures of the things that they had seen. The second grade is deep in a study of Holland. Holland seems to be the favorite country of the second graders, and Miss Singer says that almost every year the children like it best. The second graders have already made a table filled with things typical of Hol- land. They have dressed dolls to be pulled by wooden dogs in wood- en carts of their own making. They have started a big scrap-book to which every child will contribute a page. They plan to make Holland plates by coloring and then shel- lacking paper plates. They will make wooden shoes from clay The main event from the third grade is the newspaper which the children are all working most en- ergetically on. When the third graders grow up to high school age they will really have a "Chalk Mark" if experience helps any. The fifth grade has been study- ing bees and to help them, a prac- tice teacher brought one that had been treated for them to draw from. They also looked at a honeycomb. The fourth and fifth grades have 'a new student teacher, Miss Martin SaraManda Hiller will teach in the sixth grade. The sixth graders miss Opal Paul who is in the hospital recovering from an appendicitis op- eration. All of the grades attended the afternoon production of the Opera, "Iolanthe" Tuesday afternoon.

[ have followed closely the r0eord of th0 nlany inlprove- ulents that have becu nladc in the last few years. l/uriug this tinle I have been in (,onil)lete accord with the policies of the newspaper, in gcncral. How- "ver, the last isstie ('March 9) in- dicates a viewpoint, ill connection iwilh two events, with which I dis- :agree. I wouhl like to bring to your attention a slightly different l)olicy which I I)elicve would, if curried Oil|, hnprove the reputation uf both the newspaper aud the lown as a whole. ]Cirst, nlay [ quote froul the ar- ticle beaded "Popuhtr Student Is Auto ('rash Victinl." "Mr. ()'(~on- nell is reported to have I)cen the owner of the n]anure spreader which ulight be said to have heen an indirect cause of thc accident." This seeuis to uie io I)e "tvoiding a very vital issue. "l'he causes of that "lecident were two in nutni)er: the slush on the paven/cnt, whic}l ('ouldn't tlave t)een avoided, and the I)resencc of tile nlanure spreader, whicli (~nihl have t)cen avoided. "Phe presence of sucil s]o*,v-l]loving vehicles is a growing menace to life, a ulenaco which "locording to u/any authorities is ahnost as great as tile excessive speeding which we llear SO Inueh about. These slow-moving wagons, trac- lors, and so forttl do have the right of access to the puh]ic highways, which nlakes the pl'ol)lel// compli- :'ated. I au/ not U. highway engin- eer, and so I anl not aide to say what shouhl be don(,. Howcver, onc possibility wouhl t)¢, the provision of wide, hard-su i'fa('ed shoulders on which these vehicles would tie required to travel. An active, vig- orous caulpaign for ttlc renloval of this hazard would be a fitting tri- !lute to the student who was taken t'ronl us, and the successful con- clusion of such a campaign would furnish a fitting nlemorialto a man wc all knew and loved. l would also like to raise objec- t(pus to statements nlade in the article about the new water tank in the same issue of the "Hawk- eye". As I remember it, every "hick" town between Mount Ver- non and ('linton has a water tank, and on each water tank is painted the nanle of the town in large let- ters. Mount Vernon on the other hand. is not "just another 'hick town." :Prom its hilltop rises a tall steeple, a symbol of the edu- cational and religious influence of an institution that has made Mount Vernon known around the world. Therefore we don't want to adver- tise it as "just another hick town," which would certainly lie the effect of painting the nanle on the water tank. Mount Vernon has gotten along better without StlCh adver- tising than the other towns have with it. l,et us advertiseMount Vernon rather as a town which )ossesses one of the best water tanks in the state, and also pos- sesses tile good taste not to plaster a sign :ill over it. There are several other ways in which Mount Vernon can also be made to stand out from the other towns along the IAncoln Highway. One of these ways is the improve- nlent of the Mount Vernon business district. The best looking and highest class shops in the larger cities are often small. There is no reason why the shops in Mount Vernon shouldn't be just as good all it requires is the nlodernizing of the facades, UlOSt of which were built sonic tinle in the '90's, and the installation of modern display nletliods. Increased patronage by students and townspeople as well as travellers on Lhe highway would more than pay for the expense of such improvements, in my opinion. Another way of advertising the town would be to remove or rood. ernize the eyesores in the residen- tial district along the highway. Im- provement of side streets would nlake the town a better place in which to live, and thus attract peo- ple who work in Cedar Rapids but prefer to live in smaller towns. Another thing which should be done is to persuade the highway de- partnlent to install more signs along the Lincoln hig'hway giving the distance to Mount Vernon; many people of my acquaintance have conlmented on the absence of t * 9 • ~ • BUSIHESS CARDS F.

BAN I) SUG(IE.~TIONS l)car Editor:- The time of band concert season is allout bere and with it the usual problenls as to director, expenses of l.:eeping up II }ctnd, etl'. Thore is a snbstantial suln of muney availablc each year from the ])tlll(] tax, totaliug about $6i)(i.00 of which, in the past, a considerable portion was expended for outside talent. A strong sentinlent is felt by most Mount Vernon citizens and tax-payers, to eliniinate outside tulent and use holne nlusicians. Tlle trend of thought is to con- sol(date UlUsical talent fron/ the High Scllool with the veteran tal- ent of Mount Yernon and engage a director who can not only direct a i)and, but also "Jan develop young Ill us(clans. As it is quite a burden for the schools to finance such a director, the eonsolidution wouhl not only keep our tax nlnney at home but would enablc onr school nnlsicians to develop and give competition to other schools in all school music activities. All of this can be done without' lowering thc standard of the Muni- cipal Hand, because to engage very g'ood nulsieians would cost nluch ! nlore than the band treasury can i offer "lnd to stay within the budget lneaus lliring nlusieians wtlo are not above par with the home nnlsicians. This matter was brought to nly • lttcntion with a request that I ex- press lny opinion and I reco,n]mend tbc above plan because it will not ohly keep our tax money in Mount Vernon, and develop our school ulusi.~'ians, but it also will greatly aid our schools to obtain and hold the services of a good instructor and director. The above opinion is based on nly .wide experience ill band work and organizing. A petition is being circulated for signatures of all Mount Vernon people, to tie presented to tbe City Council at their meeting Friday [ night of this week and I earnestly appeal to everyone to sign same to nlake it a presentable document.
