The philosophy of education followed by many stu

a progression in trends of learning over the past half

Throughout the remainder of registration students will
have the chance to make their AUF donation pledges for
" next year. Students too often find themselves maintaining
the attitude that this charitable donation is a bother an
that their dollars and dimes could be better spent else
where. Their money could be better spent on other items
if they consider such organizations as Community Chest,
World Student Service Fund, Red Cross, Infantile Paralysis
fund and other agencies a waste of time. But everyone1
knows now that the opposite is true, that every day thou
sands of works offer testimony to the vast services per
formed by these organiztaions. Any one who says his dimes
could be better spent elsewhere is merely trying to cover,
up the fact that his interests lie solely with himself. As
far as AUF's being a bother goes, students only need to
be reminded that the All University Fund was organized
to escape the constant solicitation from all these group.'
which provide for the welfare of needy persons. As stu
dents sign their pledges this week, they must keep in mine"
that this one donation will make up for five or six contri
butions which they would otherwise make during the year.
