Nero retaliated by ordering Seneca to be tortured to death. Present day students can not go quite that far, but they can make the torment almost as exercicating. Writing in Scribner's magazine, an anonymous professor tells of his tribulations while teaching at a large university. Obviously the man writes anonymously. He says some pungent things about American students, but his main criticism can be summed up in a sentence. The majority of college students are either too lazy or too much disinterested to care anything for learning; they are in school simply because it is the thing to do, the professor contends. The writer of the article has made out a good case. He quotes the students in alibis and complains which are strangely familiar to our cars. He cites an apathy in the classroom which one can daily corroborate. But one point in his brief against students appears slightly strained, when he describes the pain the student indifference gives him. Professors should have learned from some of their books a bit about the ways of the young. The fact that a few young men and women go to school for any other reason than to get an education should not weigh too heavily on the professor's mind. The best attitude for him to take would be to laugh at the dumb ones and take pride in the good ones. Why is it a student counts himself lucky when a professor's absence excuses him from a class he has paid for through tuition? A CHAMPION OF DUTCH-DATING Stating that college women usually have more money to spend than college men have, Miss Susan M. Guild, dean of women at Washburn College, has suggested that women students buy their own tickets for varsities and other entertainments. "Dutch dating" is always a subject for heated discussion on any campus. Although quite a few "independent" women are very much in favor of the idea, most of the "gentler" members of the student body declare that they would rather go without dates than pay their own way. A large percentage, too, of the men on the campus prefer to "stag" the variates and go by themselves to other entertainments if they cannot afford to pay for two admissions. Since the emancipation of women and their entrance into realms formerly sacred to man, it would seem that the traditionally weaker sex would take a step further along the road to equality and agree to abandon the old-fashioned idea of having a man always paying their bills. Old notions, however, are probably too deep ingrained to be changed in one generation. COLUMBUS LANDS AT SAN SALVADOR It was only 441 years ago that Christopher Columbus sailed across the western ocean, beyond the edge of the world, and landed at San Salvador. He was considered mad by his contemporaries. Even when he returned to Spain with visible proof of his discovery they laughed at him, and put him in chains. The great men of any age are seldom recognized by their contemporaries. We can not see the events of today in their proper perspective; therefore we laugh at great men and belittle discoveries which in a few years may be recognized as great. TWO YEARS OF FREEDOM More than a thousand children may taste new-found freedom in the United States as a result of accepted and pending industrial codes. For two years, children who have spun cotton or fed machinery, or who worked inside a mine, or in sawmills, or in stores, or, in fact, any who have been subjected to long hours or to hazardous labor, will find time to live, to play, and to develop as adolescent children should. But in two years—what then? The scene shifted. Machinery came in First the textile manufacturers sought cheap, agile labor. As competition grew the child was gradually caught in an industrial maelstrom, and held in capitalistic tentacles, untouchable by law or regulation. Two national child labor laws, passed in 1916 and in 1919, were declared unconstitutional because they interfered with rights reserved to the states. The states in turn were helpless, for any attempt at regulation and enforcement sent the industries scurrying across state lines to greener pastures where child labor and child life were cheap. The New Deal is freeing thousands of children. More may be freed. But this check is only temporary under the present set up. The depression has brought out the economic unsoundness of employing children while adults are idle; the depression is freeing the children. From a humanitarian point of view, however, there will be a need for child labor regulation long after the codes are worn thread bare and long after the depression has been forgotten. The child labor amendment was passed by Congress to give to that body the right to regulate this social problem. Nine states have sensed the need of this amendment and have ratified it this year, swelling the total number of states to fifteen. Whether or not the thousands of children freed this year will continue to enjoy advantages that the majority of us consider God-given rights will depend upon the success or failure of the states to guarantee the permanency of the industrial freedom now granted to its children. From the revealing questions asked by students while taking a test, the professor must be almost able to grade the papers before they are handed in. It is not at all uncommon to hear one's friends who have graduated from college make such errors in grammar as "he don't" or "the students they went." Quite often the homes of these graduates will lack all trace of culture and contain only a few risque novels and some "snappy" jazz numbers for the victrola. Any appreciation of knowledge or love of learning that they might have obtained at school seems to have been entirely lost. CULTURE OF THE EDUCATED Looking at the college student who has yet to procure his diploma, one sees some very sad cases. Many undergraduates do not even know how to read the OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN The German club will meet Monday, Oct. 16, in room 313 Fraser, at 4 o'clock Taize Puff, German exchange student, will talk.

Self-Supporting Student Asn. news in the newspapers, much less the editors or more serious articles found in weekly or monthly publications. A large number of these students have carried over from their childhood the belief that the newspaper contains little of interest but the cartoons. If the average undergraduate reads books at all for pleasure, they are the popular novels obtained at the lending libraries. Is it any wonder that some students are unable to appreciate culture after they graduate from the university when they do not even show a slight tendency toward becoming acquainted with it during their undergraduate years? WANDERINGS OR WONDERINGS? The whole atmosphere gives one a far-away feeling, a longing for something he knows not what. Football games help to relieve that feeling, as do pep meetings; yet there is still something lacking. It is not the call of one human being for another, or loneliness, but seems to be more of a call of nature—of the unexplained. Red and yellow are beginning to appear on the leaves. The vines, a brilliant scarlet, creep upward through boughs and branches to appear web-like against the background of the duller hues. The blackbirds are flocking. The air has a feeling of frost mingled with an unexplainable something which in the spring is usually thought of as romance. 1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789 Perhaps the best cure for it is a long walk in the woods; there to stop and bask in the warm sun and absorb the beauties of nature, marvel at the squirrels which are too busy laying in winter supplies to be molested by lazy persons, listen to the fluttering of the falling leaves, and rest in this new environment. QUIPS from other QUILLS 1234567890 If the textbooks on Economics are worth anything, the current wave of strikes should be accepted as a highly encouraging thing. Strikes, say the texts, are unfailing signs of better times—1.j.h. in Chanute Tribute.

"Let me see," mused the youth. "I've got to buy flowers, chocolates, theater tickets..." "Doing mental arithmetic?" asked his friend. "Sentimental arithmetic," sighed the young man—Hiwatha World. A visitor tried to crash the Chicago fair with a pass to the exposition of 1893. He must have taken up in a traffic jam—Indiana Daily Student. On Other Hills A plan has been devised at the Colorado Agricultural College whereby students may pay their fees by installments. This is chiefly for students who have to work during the semester, and find it difficult to accumulate the entire sum at one time at the first of the semester. The plan provides that no credit or grades be given until the student cannot enroll in the following semester's work is his fees are not paid in full by that time. According to a news item in an El Paso, Texas paper, the Texas college of mines has a club of woman-haters. The members of the club are supposed to devote a large part of their time hating the fair sex and are not to have any dates. Several members dropped out of the club last year, it is reported.
