"The present generation." Dr. Birk- head said, "it is not as crazy as some other generations have been, but it is crazy enough." He called attention to the fact that people now live under more complicated conditions than other generations had to contend with in the past. He traced the meaning of the word "foolish" to the word "foilish," which means "foolish." He also explained how the word "sophomore" came into being, "Sophron" meaning "wise"-what the students thought they were and "moros" meaning "foilish"-what other students thought they were not, indicating the designation that class of students. biologists Initiated Term Psychologists initiated "the term. Dr Birkhead said, 'come on, you are a psychologist' in psychological first tried to classify, in into mental ages, and designated those people who quit growing at the mental age of about 10 or 12 as mornings. During the war it was frequently used in connection with soldiers. Dr Birkhead related an attachment of William Allen White in showing what many prominent people think of the intelligence of the American masses. He said that the Emperor editor won once asked what was wrong with the American, and he replied, "The morality." "A short Introduction to the History of Human Stupidity," recently written by Walter B. Pitkin, professor of journalist at Columbia university, was frequently referred to by the speaker during the course of his address. Ireland is classed as the most stupid of all nations by Professor Peter Wilk, with Spain considered as being inhabited by people comparable to us. But Ireland is the speaker. Stupidity is evidenced in Italy by ambitious men who have nothing to base their ambition on. The Irish economy, England never had any economic intelligence; and the American people are victims of astrologers, according to the book, Dr. Berkland-Albert. Ireland Called Most Stupid "I think that Professor Pikin's idea is well taken. But our stupidity is not true. I am not a fool, whatever you believe is responsible for our creation." Dr. Bicklead "No country has as many sharper and swimmers per hour, as the United States," he said. "It hasn't been said, 'The human being is the only animal that can be akined more than anybody.'" an answer to his own question, "Are we all morons?"

Dissatisfaction with the financial policies of the government plus continued unemployment and economic stagnation led to a wave of social unrest in Ecuador uprising in which rebels sergey warlords, fired on a Dutch passage vessel on which an ex-president was sentier, and tried to blockade it. Chile's economic and financial troubles were the worst in Chile's history. Citizens exchanged two million paper pigs for silver in a run on the Banco Central. A radial leader headed troops. Troops were ready for emergencies. The crisis was precipited by the government's effort to abandon the gold standard, by the stagnation in the copper and nitrate industries, soaring food prices, increasing unemployment, and a general scarcity to assuring control of the country.

DEPRESSION CAUSES $130 LOSS FOR MUSICAL COMEDY The annual musical comedy, "Scholastic Scandal," produced by the Women's Self Governing Association, stood a loss of approximately 15 percent on the nights of April 4, 5, and 6 in Frazer theater. Performances were attended by fair-sized audiences, but the total amount of receipts fell surprisingly during the season. The W. S. G. A. musical comedy has been an annual affair for 7 years and is one of the main sources of revenue augmented by half of the receipts of weekly sales. The audience enjoyed the production come the means of offering its traditional scholarship funds. Helen Heaton, president of W. S. G. A., accounts for the financial failure of the musical comedy. "Obviously," said Miss Heaton, "students are not going places and spending the money this year as they have previously. We know that we would be poor if Herrington was always well attended. The students could have no reason for dropping it this year except scarcity of money. The loss will cut in, to some extent, on our scholarship fund. But we will still be part, from our dance classes." To Discuss Liquor Control Ben H.

East Meets West in Trial Honolulu, April 8—(UP)—Four fatalities confronted the battle of Hawaii justice and watched East meet West in a jury which will decide their guilt for the killing. "Life," said Joe Kohahaw's death warrant, "is a mysterious and exciting affair," and the gray-haired woman with the lined face the youthful naval officer and the two salaried people plumb this thought to the depths. Darrow Defends Four Americans Acused of Hawaiian's Murder Granville Fortesque, Lieutenant Thomas Massie, Edward Lord, and Albert Jones on the ship, of killing Kahahaahu, all indicate a resignation to destiny. The first, coldly, the second stoically, the third, imparturbably, and the fourth, unimparturbably. Happy, black-eyed, alert Jones is a personable defendant. He has a question mark attached to his name. "What questions the quick-witted and ruthless John Kelley, public prosecutor, would ask if someone was guilty of does the fact that someone might feel disposed to take the law into his own hands as Jones has been accused of."
