THE LINCOLN LETTERS FRIDAY, JANUARY 11. 1929 Poor Honeyst Ale! His sweetheartss are ying energetically with one another. Ann Rutheridge got the center of the stage because she first won his heart and engraved it on the stump of some old oak tree. Then somebody felt that Mary, the wife of Linehoe, had been slighted. And now somebody else has a grudge, and we have Mary Owens. Dr. William E. B. Barton of Chicago minister and author, who is regarded as the foremost living authority on the study of Lincoln, in an interview last week was most enthusiastic about the recent letters from the former president to Mary Owens. The letters are reproduced in the Kansas City Star, but not new discoveries, were reprinted for the first time, and now Atlantic Monthly has something to scratch its back about! FIGURES DO NOT LIE Sometimes, it seems a good idea that Abe wrote his more youthful epistles on the back of a shirt. One can drag these out for us to see FIGURES DO NOT LEED. After succeeding in enebezzling $174,000 of the $211,000 of funds of a New Jersey bank for 35 years, Edward B. Reeve, former cashier, was finally indicted on sixty-three counts. Reeve insisted that for a period of ten years he had done nothing wrong at the bank. If this statement is true, he resumed his petitions with enthusiasm, for sixty-one of the true bills charge him with forgery of notes in 1927 and 1928. The shortage in funds was only discovered by accident during Reeve's illness in September, 1928. Revee is not the first bank cashier to embezzle money contended to him. He is not the first appropriator of other people's property who managed to conceal the irregularities. The fact that he is not the first, is the crux of the whole situation. Something must be wrong with the present system of bank examination when men can misappropriate thousands of dollars over a long period of years and, barring pure accidents, continue to abscond. Accounts are often juggled and when the shortages are discovered the books are hopelessly involved. No one would venture to suggest that bank examination be abolished, but it would seem that it is high time for inquiring minds to be turned upon the problem in an effort to remedy the evil. Figures do not lie—but the world is continually finding out that liars can figure. AMERICA-WORLD PHILANTHROPIST Criticism is often directed against the United States by the other nations of the world because they seem to feel that this country has more than its share of worldly goods. This stand is often justified when one considers the methods used by many of the moneyed interests in the exploitation of the natural resources in other countries. But no road has but one terminus and so it is here. It has fallen to the lot of America to give the world riches which far surpass anything that could be given money valuation. Today one of her sons is conducting an expedition in a realm farthest south. The men who make up this expedition have gone into this country where life is held at its lowest premium to endure the hardships its rigorous climate will impose on them. Their only object is to serve humanity by bringing back knowledge which can be put to practical use. America outposts the world in expeditions of this nature. Is it necessary to recall the group of doctors who gave their lives that a cure might be found for the dread malaria, a Peery who journeyed to the North Pole and made priceless contributions to our science and general knowledge, a Lindbergh, a Wilkinson, and now Commander Byrd who has given much in the past and continues in the work. America should be justly proud of these men whose courage and during have contributed no much to the world. SPARE THE ROD AND— Beneath, she claimed, she had to wear a placed around her neck which read: "I am not a good citizen," in school hours, a twelve year old Wisconsin school girl is bringing action for damages of $20,000 against her teacher. The child admits she has forced to wear the pinch because of misconduct. Are all means of disciplining the younger generation to be denied school teachers through the fears of possible law suits? Last year in Kuwait City a similar case occurred when a teacher was accused of reasonably mistreating one of her pupils. If teachers are to expect damage suits each time a correction for conduct is made in the classroom, the old fashioned school discipline will soon be a thing of the past. And with the disappearance of disciplinary measures from the home, the question arises as to just where children are to receive their training. Obviously, the idea of a $20,000 damage suit for so slight an offense originated in parental minds rather than in that of a twelve year old girl. Such an attitude toward school discipline in parents must be strongly condemned. Not only are they disg rupting the centre school system but they are doing immeasurable harm to their children. They are instilling in them an antagonistic attitude toward their whole education, He who passes the back is never re-remembered when they pass out the loc.

Today's Best Editorial 1. Once more, parliamentarianism fails. Jugoslavia joins Italy, Spain, Poland, Hungary and Turkey in establishing a dictatorship. But in this case the King has been made dictator instead of being a monarch, the strong government assumes power. EUROPE'S NEW DICTATOR King Alexander, ruler of the united kingdom of the Serbs, Croats and Slovakia, presented, proclaimed in 1921, has suspended this constitution. The Skipshina scene of endless fruitless despair and insultations, has been dissolved. the new Cabinet is responsible only for maintaining its members can be dismissed by him. The experience of the post-war period has proved that Croatia, Slovenia and Serbia have joined under parliamentary forms. At no time since the new kingdom was proclaimed have they participated in three sections of Jugoslavia been able to agree. The assassination last year of the members of the Racaunan faction during a session of the Skupnitzia, determined the Croatians to have been a member in Belgrade. They set up a rump Parliament in Zagreb, the Croatian capital, and demanded Jugoslavia has many foreign enemies. Mussolini has threatened several times to use force against them. Italy, Hungary and Bulgaria are not friendly. The change to dictatorship will be watched with hostile rather than friendly outbursts. Fortunately King Alexander is known as a modest, careful individual. Heill do his best to avoid foreign conflicts while engaged in fighting against dismantled kingdom toward some practical form of federalization. Brooklyn Daily Eagle Hourly Weather Reports Along Airways One of Needs of Civil Aeronautic New York, Jan. 11—Hourly reports of weather along the airways are one of the needs of civil nauticalism. In this the vayi the pilots may be immediately informed of any changes in weather conditions. Wills R. Gregg, of the U.S., Weather Toulouse told me that a recent storm event time the established airways cover some 14,000 miles, with about half this distance lived for night flying. A service weather service has been organized on all of these airways. This service includes air报讯 from about 50 stations in which balloons are used in measuring upper winds, and runway inspections on the airways themselves. In general the reports are timed to fit the flight schedules, although there are now in operation two experimental services—San Francisco to Los Angeles and New York to Cleveland—in which the reports are furnished at frequent, regular intervals; both day and night, but all飞着 on those airways. "Inside Stuff" --jaw forward. The receding jaw comes of saying, "I can't." Try it yourself." "How come," inquires some more boiled specimen of collegiate youth so often, "How come that the Korean gives us a much house to the Insider, too, has wondered how come; and his conclusion is that the campus actively recruits students simply because it is one of the most active organizations on the campus. Activity attracts attention, and admissions are based on news. Why here the school, Q. E. D. (Seienee Service) Our Contemporaries WHAT'S IN A NAME? Through a curious twist in our language, the University, in common with other schools of the country, has been forced to sense is illegitimate. Surprising as it may seem, this is none other than Mr. Sage's own sense of "dear peep" have a right to their name, "professors" are correctly entitled to them, but as for "students" This, however, is the fault of the child and not of the parents. Our word "student" we know, comes from the Latin verb, to be eager. It was a way to describe day when those who were attending schools were eager for knowledge and to these thirsty seekers was applied the derivative cognomen, "stay awake." This term indicates have changed, and what a change time has brought about. In place of the once serious school of the ancient Greeks, Jocel Colegatei in pursuit of a certain type of learning. And along the path that omitent and lofty women blamed for failure have come to knowledge, hobbles the coed. No person could rationally accuse all of the people attending the University as being eager for knowledge or teaching. The visitor, a visit to class rooms would result in speedy disillusionment. The fraternities are mating it obvious that students are not "students." Certainly, in the sense of being eager for knowledge, we can not properly redefine what it is true that those who are here are eager for something, but the most question be, is that something knowledge? Or is it something So, in an etymological scene, we might say that part at least of the student body is quite illegitimate. To be honest, this does not seem right. For instance, we "might suggest a name to which they are honorably entitled, and that would be "client." Were we to admit students who attended the University as its "clients," there could be no possible objection. We think that in justice to clients, it should be correct, and in that case the right category could claim its lawful of imprisonment or vice严er. Then the right attitudinality of the students must nate victims of paradoxical nomenclature and the clientele of a University could go happily along its way, warrants being satisfied, and finally entitled. — Minnesota Daily Our campus is to become a breeding place for big mosas.

Hugh Bentley EDUCATION AS A SIDELINE A college located in a city launched with pride that seven-eighty of its students are entirely self-supporting while attending college. It seems incredible that an institution which claims to maintain high standards of education has no active activity on the part of its students. Educators deploy that a college column is no longer a symbol of education. Many have taken newspapers off the presses of our big city dailies, played in the ballpark and at the game.

Colleges and universities should be generous in granting scholarships and assisting students by encouraging economical standards, but should not require them. A student can be obtained as a sideline. A student should make college his major business, and despite the pity a professor might feel for a man who is doing a day's work in addition to at least one semester or more it may not be lowered. When a college education can be obtained by merely sitting in a classroom chair and taking a few notes, the diploma at the end of the course must be accepted as an artistic wall decoration.
