You know, the same old routine: cram, cram, cram all the little facts in, making sure that none escape. Look at the exam questions and write, write, scribble . . . all the little facts come tumbling out. arranging themselves into a logical, reasonable pattern â€"â€" you hope! Now just a second, here. You students are beginning to sound a bit like machines. Yes, I've got it: one of those computers that live down at IBM: let‘s see, feed the information in here . . . slip in the question right here and . . . beep! . . . beep! . . . out comes the answer over there. My goodness that's neat. Very efficient, too (most 0f the time) and VERY modern. The computer is-also very. very inhuman. '7 . . . What? Oh . . . no. I’m sorry I'm not going to beef about exams this week. I’ll leave that argument to the rest of you this time. This week, I want to say or rather, write a few words about being human; being totally a part of the human race. (And with inhuman exams all around. the time seems very appropriate, don’t you think?) Of course, memory and thought. are part of being human. Man has very often been referred to as a “rational animal” meaning that. he alone of all other beings on the earth is capable of reas- oning. Man possesses the very important faculty of being able to think of the rightness or wrong- ness of something, the reasons for and against something; make a judgement. and come up with a logical conclusion. These powers are the abil- ities of the intellect, a very in1egral part of the human being. But an equally important part of the human being is emotion or deep inner feeling. Animals do possess emotions to some degree. but emotion is greatly intensified in man, simply because he does possess his intellect. However. intellect does not control emotion. Love. hate. fear and varying degrees of these emotions are very often not reasonable. Reac- tions to people or things. based on these emotions, are not mulled over or contemplated for days. hours or even minutes. They are immediate and spontaneous at one particular moment. In fact “e. e. cummings.” a modern American poet, went as far as to say “that you should ever thing", may God forbid / and (in His mercy) your true lover spare: / for that way knowledge lies. the foetal grave called progress.” Cummings is saying “don't an emotion is or isn’t; accept it you will destroy it.” This week is “Think Week" for you; the week in which you operate from the head and hope that your teachers have a heart. I hope that this week you will make the most of the opportunity to think and I wish you the best of luck. But next week and ever afterwards, remember: don’t always be ruled by your head: instead, let your heart often take the lead. Ward I Councillor Something for everybody seems to be the goal of the Richmond Hill and District YWCA’I program which includes classes in everything from oil painting to upholstering. Classes are open to both men and women and above. are seen (left) Mrs. Mary Cn'pps and (right) Peter Evans busy in the upholstery class While Instructor Mike Cummings, centre, offers advice. _ 1 i U.
