BIG BROTHER
The upperclassman might seem to be better qualified to advise the freshman than faculty members. The question was discussed at the meeting of the National Student Federation of America, and some interesting information was brought out.
The senior has been in school and knows much about the different courses and instructors. He has taken courses in the various departments, while many professors know very little about any department but their own.
Of course there must be some facility supervision in selecting courses, but the senior is nearer to the freshman than the faculty member, has more in common with him, and can well advise him.
BEER TO MINORS?
One of the more serious aspects of the beer situation, that of selling the 3.2 per cent beverage to children of high school and junior high school age, is beginning to receive attention in Kansas City, Missouri. Yesterday a meeting of the Kansas City Council of Parents and Teachers drafted a resolution to city officials requesting that steps be taken to control the selling of beer near schools. Protests from various parts of the city have been registered against the dispensing of beer to miners, in spite of the fact that the Missouri law does not prohibit it.
There can be no question as to the moral issues involved in the question. No matter how great a boer 3.2 per cent beer may be to a thirsty public, and no matter how many legislative bodies may declare it non-intoxicating, no person of normal intelligence would claim that it should be sold with impunity to school children.
It is unfortunate that the failure of the Missouri law to prevent such action makes it necessary for the parents and teachers of Kansas City to take the matter into their own hands. As a matter of fact, it should not even be necessary to petition city officials who have the best interests of their communities uppermost in their minds. It is to be sincerely hoped, however, that the action resulting from the petitions that have been presented will remove from the future all possibility of being becoming a factor in the education of Kansas City's school children.
WHY TAKE IT?
What is the use of the student taking a course if he is not sufficiently interested in it to study it?
Many students say, "Well, I haven't my assignment in that class for today, but then I don't care anything about it anyhow."
If they don't care anything about it, why do they take it? There are other courses that they might have enrolled in. The best thing to do would be to withdraw from the class.
The student who has the don't-care attitude toward a class only makes more work for the instructor and pulls down the class average.
--supposed to be very popular with the more intelligent and aristocratic classes in "bally old England."
JIGSAWING
The private opinion you have been entertaining that all jigsaw enthusiasts are slightly moronic is wrong. They according to Professor Warner Browne of the department of psychology of the University of California, the successful completion of a jigsaw puzzle requires the efforts of an individual with a fairly high I.Q. In the first place, a mentally dull person cannot fit for the three or four hours needed to complete the puzzle, and in the second place he is quickly disturbed by the difficulty of the enterprise.
The ideal jigaw puzzle worker is the calm and collected individual who possesses infinite patience. That of course lets the average highly strung, overworked, temperamental college student out. The complexity of his intellectual pursuits makes him incapable of working a mere puzzle.
Professor Browne also informs us that the existence of fads in puzzles, as in other commodities, is superior in America not because of a difference in mental make-up, but rather of the efficiency of our markets. England, several jumps behind us, is just now revelling in the cross word puzzle, which is
During the first week of next month the annual election of the School of Business will be held. Or will it?
Can the officers elected by a limited group within a school be referred to as the officers of the school? Only the members of the Associated Students of the School of Business are allowed to vote in the election. Membership in the organization costs $1.50 per year. Many of the students in the School of Business do not belong to the association.
The cost of an election should no doubt be borne by the electorate. The actual cost of the School of Business election could not exceed five cents for each person voting.
The many smokers and the annual School of Business banquet are good for the school and its members from both scholastic and social viewpoints. But is it in keeping with the best principles of democracy to insist that the students must support them, financially, before casting a ballot?
The offices are unimportant ut we strive for perfection.
Chancellor Lindley spoke at the Honors convoction on the subject of "A Forgotten Man." "Who me?" said the bewildered freshman.

A Missouri Pacific railroad engineer lies critically burned in a St Louis hospital as a result of his gallant bravery in sticking to his post in a recent railroad accident. This engineer in particular, was bringing his fast train toward St Louis when he crashed into a gasoline truck at a railroad crossing near a small Missouri town. The engine at once became a mass of flames; the fireman jumped from the cab and was immediately killed, but the engineer, remembering his duty, brought his train to a stop, and then tropped over unconscious as a result of severe burns. By this heroic act the lives of the passengers were saved. Little do the majority of passengers realize the hardships, skill, and often times bravery the pilot of their train is evincing. The railroad engineer is a pickman, and his value cannot be measured in ordinary terms.

"In the Long run," remarked one of our contemporaries, "it doesn't pay a man to be a good poker player." And it might be added that it is even less profitable for a man to think he is a good poker player-Chanute Tribune.
Such a procedure does not guarantee Phi Beta keys but it at least insures a fair measure of acceptable scholastic marks for the student who is willing to engage in activities to a temperate degree. Both campus activities and formal class room work are important elements of any college course of participation in either produces in the one case social indigestion and in the other case intellectual indigestion.
Those who have made it their motto not to "let studies interfere with education" might be interested to learn that more than half of the students elected to Phta Biha are engaged in football to A.S.U.C. offices, jumping from football to A.S.U.C. offices.
That student can take part in the work of campus organizations and yet qualify for membership in a scholarship society seems unbelievable to many who are neck-deep in activities and struggling to keep up with academic requirements. It is unbelievable to them that students have been captured by that pseudo philosophy of college life which demands that studies play only a minor part in the process called education. Were the majority of these "unbelievers" to guide their participation in activities by an attitude of moderation, balancing extracurricular and curricular work more or less easily, they would find that the more involved they become, capable with engagement in non-academic pursuits.

A Western university announces the first edition of a free thought humor magazine on its campus. Probably the blurb refers to the fact that the university's most favored poet from other college美术 magazine—California Daily Bruin.
Former Mayor Walker, of New York, was married early this morning at Cannes, France, and, for some reason or other, we are strangely elated over the event, possibly because we like to watch it from a down.-Concordia Blade Empire.
Most of this year's Phi Beta Kappa students have met the problem by a well-balanced attitude toward studies and activities. That they have achieved scholastic honors does not mean that their way is difficult. It only emphasizes the importance of learning within the realm of possibility to find a reasonable equilibrium between the pursuit of scholarship and activities-California Daily Bruin.

Men students are being extra careful this year about "putting out their pins," the collegiate equivalent of bestowing an engagement ring. They realize that there is slight prospect of a job in the near future, and they're reluctant to enter the bonds of matrimony with such a discouraging prospect. That attitude is downright disconcerting to our young heroine who thinks the boy friend who has that "silly idea" shouldn't be so mean.

SYNOPSIS
CHAPTER I—"Tom" Belknap, bit timber operator, ordered by his physicians to take a complete rest, plans a day of maintenance of advancement he has made to his son John, just commencing in the business, are broken, for no apparent reason. He worked with Paul Gorbel, his partner, whom John and other business associates of Belknap cordially disillusioned, is a bone of contention. But this work with complete understanding.
CHAPTER II.—At Sheoostring, his train delayed by a wreck, John is ordered to leave the house and fight his attackers realize it is a case of mistaken identity. John learns his father is believed to be out to wreck the Rickie and he unbelieving, he seeks employment with that company. At the office he finds Gorbel bullying a young girl who recognizes him. The girl is Ellen Richards, owner of the company. A letter she carries gives him an apology when she is being dropped inadvertently, and John, knowing the feeling against his father, allows Ellen to believe that is
CHAPTER III—Ellen engages John as her foreman. A艾伦 is appointed to the Richard's operating of the Richards company culminates in the deliberate wrecking of a loco-motive.
CHAPTER IV. After heroic effort the accident, Emmeline Jenner's bravery under the conditions, begins to have a sentimental attachment for the girl, which
CHAPTER V. The Richards barns and stables burn in a night fire in the woods, but they out the dead body of a stranger. He realizes the fire was set, but remains silent as the man appears to such an attack. Steele and Sheriff Bridshaw arrange to work together on the fire.
CHAPTER VI. —John V. is satisfied that Mr. Beakman's work, sheltered by "Old Tom" Beakman's name and reputation. Gorbal discovers that "Stacle" is John Bekl.
His position had become untenable for John Beltakn. A man can't make love to a girl when he led her to love a boy. He couldn't about such a situation, under the circumstances, was something unean't. A man does not want to tell a girl he loves another girl. He wants to tell him he wants to tell it all, every sentence, word and syllable.
CHAPTER VII
He had written the sherrif at length the night after DeYoang, the Beklap & *G*'s olier, had told his story, not trussing a word of that to script but inviting a group of people to evolve it and outlining a program for the well-intentioned, likeable but slow thinking officer to follow. This afternoon Bradshaw had telephoned that certain investigations had been made in connection with efforts to determine what he had learned.
"Been waitin' for his," the sheriff said, scratching the head. "Sit, Kissle, I done what you told me but it didn't look straight as a string."
"So? Just what'd you find?"
"Well, I did just what you suggested," she said. "I went to Kampoak yesterday and made the point that the county didn't want to bury this lad and tried to locate it."
"Was careful to ask around in other places, and just as you figured, nobody could help. Then I want to Gorbel, like it was kind of a last resort, and apologized for trouble' on it and it didn't bother me. He heard! If he 'cooked his beef too smart for us. And maybe we're guessin' wrong all along the line."
"H-1, he told me everything! He
"What do you suppose he'd say to
he knew we had a witness to his
handling over a jug to his man?" And
the jacket was filled with gasoline? "The
jug was filled with gasoline?"
"Huh?" Bradshaw gauped. "Witness? You mean—"
John nodded, "Witness" he whispered sharply. "Ive got him, Naal!" You nodded. "No." Do Young told him and the sheer's eyes grew round with excitement.
"Now," John went on, "the next move is to upset Gorbel's own story. He told you again and again that he was drunk. DeKoung doesn't think so, but if that stomach hasn't grown back yet, his journey on his way towards being suspected of arson, and arson isn't a mild charge in this state. Nat!"
"I'll say! I'll说 it aint'! D-n-me. . . We'll have a debriary in a day or two now, and we we'll see what we'll see!"
They talked until late and John went to his bed with a message from the office. He would not have been so complacent, so certain that he was going in on easy and simple solution had he known what went on in the Bekkam and Gorbel offices that
Paul Gorbel had driven his team relentlessly into Kampfest that day, his dark eyes glittering. Fear and hate and leaksy rode with him.
When he entered his office, however, he was controlled, apparently by the staff. He then visited the Bank of Kumfest, gave orders to the cashier, visited n moment, and was in his car.
He stood in the doorway as the men streamed by and when Tucker approached he called out, "Hey, I have dressed in a fur coat, a different sort of figure than those you will see on the streets of a northern midtown. Gorbel broke down."
"Oh, Marie!" The girl turned,

"All right!" she said, went on and Gorbe turned again to Tucker. When he had finished the man nodded.

Gorbel had told the stenographer to return at eight. He, however, was in his office again before seven, seated at his desk, writing slowly.
The outer door opened and closed; his office knob turned and the girl, Marie, came in.
"Lo!" she said in a half whisper. He smiled and spoke without looking up.
She took off her coat, removed the sheath, felt turban, pulled off her gauze, put on a hat, wrapped long, low-necked, short-sleeved slip of a girl with eyes that might have been gentle, but were not, with a mouth that might have been tender, waist.

He slipped a sheet of paper over the penciled lines.
"What's the big idea?" she asked, hostility in the tone, drawing back. He caught her wrist crumpled and lanced as he drew her to his chair.
"hot-headed baby!" he breathed, and "kissed her arm. "It's a letter to another girl. But when you've read it, you might be surprised. And I'm wishing to let you read!"
He patted her back and the temper receded from her face slowly.
"Well, ever since I caught you writing to this Richards family, and found out you'd been going to see her naturally you've been going to it. I've naturally be suspicious."

"Good G—d, have we got to have that over again? Hasn't it been explained well enough to satisfy even your jealousy?"
"Well, it waits . . . once. But
"what you see?" he pleaded impatiently, "I want to walk in now! Let me get hold of this. Richard's property on my own, let me get things running here as she should be. That's all that I need, and all, that'll startle even the picture crowd in Hollywood!"
"And what I've got on now is just about the knock-out. I want you to read this and hold your temper until you get to the end. I want you to press an envelope, I'm going to mail it . . . Read, Marie, a bomb-shell."
"Well, for gosh sakes!" was her comment, blue eyes widening in amazement. "Is it a fact?"
He thrust the paper into her hands and watched her face as she read.
"Sure as you're born!" He slapped the desk. "See what it means? See what I'll do?" He talked rapidly, eyes narrowed in earnestness.
