MAY 25, 1930 MOTHERS IN FRANCE What must be the thoughts of the mothers who are visiting their boys' graves in France? How do they feel as they call up the memories of that moment when they learned the news that their sons were killed? Surely, here is one body of citizens who have given the futility of war. They have given their sons. They see the world still steeped in bigotry, animosity, and distrust. They know the world has not been made safe for democracy. But they have hopes. They know gains have been made. They know there will be wars in the future as there have been in the past, and that the young men will be the first to go. But they also hope that the wars of the future will be fewer and farther between. They know that ignorance is the chief cause of war. Understanding will settle all troubles. And such trips as these focus the eyes of the world on the futility of war. Coming as it does after the London conference, the tour of the American mothers who have lost sons in France should strengthen the popular demand that the treaty to limit naval armament should be ratified. Some wag has remarked that a college student is something that mother prays for and father pays for. SELF-CENTERED CAMEI Volstad. New York Central Park camel, is dead, presumably because the affections of Mrs. Volsted had been transferred to their 11-month-old daughter, Jeanette. When his wife spent her time doing over their offspring, he became peevish and refused to eat. He even scorned water; a thing which no good camel should do. Like human beings, when he failed to receive the attention that he believed was rightfully his, he pouted. We notice that a Kansas reporter, who has yet to learn to look for a tell-tale wink in a speaker's eye when he makes an astonishing statement, took Fred Trig serious when he faecially remarked that he had been working for the Kansas City Star for 60 years. We should like Mr. Trig to tell us what he did before he began to write Little Bennie's Notebook. VIEWED FROM ABOVE Capt. H. A. Ward, 95, and Capt. S. W. Bell, 89, are making a trans-continental airplane flight from Los Angeles to Newcastle, Penn., to attend the annual G.A.R. encampment. What must be their thoughts as the airplane motor drones through the cloudst Thriving cities and millions of acres of fertile farm land were passed over between Los Angeles and Kansas City. And this same country was practically virgin soil when the tenth Pennsylvania and the 77th Illinois Infantry regiments were mustered out after the Civil War. The wagon trains and the pony express live only on the silver screen. Railroads encompass the land the buffalo and antelope retreated. The wigwam has vanished. The continent has been conquered. Means of travel have speeded up more in their lifetime than it did from the time of Methuen lahul to the beginning of the Republican party. They remember the first automobiles the first telephones, the first radio the first telegraphs, the first electric lights, the first canned soup. The men who wore wigs and woman suffrage, or the model T. The were old men when Teddy embarked with his Rough Riders. They are living in a different work from that of their boyhood days. They do now things they never thought of then. They go to the movies, the talks, they see more daily papers. They still hear sermons about young people going to the dogs the same as they did when they were boys. They may have heard it enough to believe it by now. But when the plane lands at Newate these two old soldiers will live gain among their comrades as they id at Gettysburg, and Bull Run. They ill hear the drummer at Shiloh; they won't forget Barbara Fritchie at Fredrikaburg. Sophomore girls will hold a class meeting in the Bull Pen Monday night at 6:30 p.m. — Announcement in the Penn State Collegian. Shades of Manhattan! SCIENCE IS WONDERFUL. Psychologists are getting where they want to be able to know what people are thinking and where in their brain they are thinking it. Light rays and dogs' brains have produced some pretty good results. Students' brains will probably be the next examined. Science is wonderful. In the next generation teachers may have a board somewhat like the present telephone switchboard. Each student will be hooked up when he comes into class. An automatic typing machine will record every thought, and a motion picture camera of some sort will take all mental images. At the end of the class period the teacher will disconnect his students, and look over the motion pictures of mental images. In a few cases he may want to consult the sheet of typewritten ideas. A few industrious instructors may read all of them, but according to some professors on the Hill, this wouldn't take long. Grading would be simple. But think of the poor students. Are their thoughts always such as a professor should know? Some records might look pretty bad if the party won't disconnected when the whistle blew. Science may find something that will and everything yet; and it may find something to solve everything. Who knows? The Band will play for the baseball game Tuesday afternoon.

WOMENS RIFLE CLUB; Phone 32 But, after all, isn't time worth just as much to one person as to another? Doesn't an appointment at a certain time call for promptness? The University has a certain rule allowing students to leave if instructors do not reach the ten minutes after it is supposed to start. Such a rule allows college students and instructors alike, to be worthy of the name, should have a sense of social responsibility and keep their appointments. Along about this time of year when work is piled up and demands are exerting we begin to realize the lack of social responsibility on the part of some people in falling to the keep of their appointments. Nine o'clock may mean ten and it may mean three to them. Let the other fellow wait. His time doesn't amount to so much anyway. And some instructors seem to think such things are necessary in college and appear to encourage it. One of the worst things about college is having to depend on these people. As a rule these people can't get away with any congenial. All students of the type are number one apple pilfers. They know how to put it and make it stick. They are artists in their work. They have the perfect line. The teachers of the type are a pretty good lot, too. They can tell you the most wonderful stories and keep any bunch laughing at them. Who wouldn't laugh when a grade depends on it? They always have large classes. They are the good seats; they are the bricks.
