In third grade you wil l find a variety of gifts including jingle cones, candles, w,11 p laques, candle holders and other table decor>tio ns.

Spirit of Yuletide Seen in Art Room

Anyone stopping at the Art De­pa rtment will find a constant buzz of activity, as students under the d irection of Miss Edna Ca rlsten p re­pare for Ch ristmas in a score of dif­fe rent ways. Besides working on de­corat ion s for the annual Christmas concert, many othe r p rojects are in the making. Art IO '\ is proceeding with stage decorations for the co n­ce rt. Large a luminum foil stars wi ll decorate a background of green, red, and black in a conventional pattern.

The freshman art class is working on a display in conjunct ion with a Wild Life Exhibit b)' the State Con­serv:1.tion dC'p,1rtment. It is spo nso red by the Chambe r of Commerce during the holid ,1ys for the children of Porlagc County. Large cardboa rd cutou ts of amusing animals will be used besides the (;lgcs of live ani ­m.ds.

Fellow Pointers, Our Col lege expe rience is w ritten

It is a gr:rnJ experience to be a li ve in thi s day when we c.rn contribute so much toward making t h is a bet­te- wo rl d. It's a great day in w hi ch to be t he molder of the character and personality of youth. \'1/e have the opportunity to combat the fa lse philosp)1ies which seek to dominate formal education.

G reetings, men .rnd women of Centra l State. You arc acquiri ng some unde rsta nd ing of lhings .ts they were, a well-rounded know ledge of things as they might be. Good luck to you in your school <lays and good heart to you in your li fe', wo rk.

By Jacqu eline Stauber, Editor in 1944 . (Miss Stauber is an instructo r in the Mondovi H ig h School. )

The celebratio n of th e fiftieth an­nivcrs:1.ry of the Pointer presents an opportun ity fo r members of CSTCs huge family of studen ts and a lum ni to reconsider with grat itude t he role which the Pointe r has played in schoo l affa irs. Too often, as citizens o f a democracy, we tend to take for grrnted th e many pri vil eges w hi ch a rc ou rs.

It is f itting for us now to pause to pay o ,ir res pect to the Poi nte r on its go ld en an ni versuy, to app reciate the Pointe r and those who have made and a re making its publication poss ible. Gratitude shou ld be ex-

By Florence Flugaur, Ed itor in 1945. (Miss Flugaur is an instructor in th e prima ry grades at New Lon­don .)

Pointer, in the past fifty yea rs, has served the co llege in an amaz ing number of ways. It has bee n the pu r­veyer :ind rec6gnizer of literary ta­lent, a common ground for the ex­change of student opinion , a cru­sader, and fi rst, last and always a recorder of the var ied e,·crits whi ch make up co llege li fe.

The fi ftieth birt hday of a news­paper like that of a co ll ege. means that it has outgrow n its babyhood and is enter ing into its prime of life. For the past fifty years, Pointer has been constant ly changing and now, as it ad<ls new yea rs to its recor<l, it w ill co ntinue to change, keeping ever·young and ,ever. mod e rn .
