A MATTER OF FORM
When a Kentucky mountain chain decides to establish peace with warring neighbor households, its members gather together all available firearms and parade before the camps of the enemy hoping thereby to instill enough fear to prevent attacks in the future.
All of which may or may not have anything to do with Mr. Hoover's good-will tour of the states to the south. In the troubled waters bordering Nicaragua and Columbia the presence of an American warship bearing the presidential-elect in regal splendor and with military escorts seems to have had a quieting effect. No one would be so foolish as to claim for an instant that a single battlehike and a few soldiers would have an intimidating effect, but one battlehike might have the effect of reminding Colombia of other war vessels which one time called upon her regarding a certain dispute over the land needed for the Panama Canal.
WAR TIME OFFENDERS
Some fifteen hundred men and women, convicted under the war-time espionage act are still denied their rights to vote, hold public office and serve on juries, according to a recent survey.
Even though punishment may have been a necessity at the time, these persons should now have their standings as qualified citizens restored to them. A proclamation to this effect from the President has been sought in a petition recently presented to him. He has replied that no proclamation is necessary in this case; that restoration of their rights can be obtained through application of the individuals concerned.
It has been shown, however, that knowledge of this opportunity can hardly be carried through established channels to the men and women involved; and that of those who could be reached, many would hesitate as a matter of principle, to take advantage of it.
Since the government took the initiative in depriving them of the privilege of citizenship, it would seem clearly to be the duty of the government to restore them. The simplest way of accomplishing this is through a proclamation of the President.
VACATION LESSONS
Year after your students return from vacations without lessons; yet instructors still seem to hope that the situation will change. Professors continue to make vacation assignments, trusting that students can prepare at least one lesson—that is, one for each Monday class. The theory is reasonable, but the practice is unsound.
Review one vacation period: The first day school is out, and everyone rushes home on the first train or bus. There follows a series of family and company dinners, portions, late hours, and all sorts of exciting times. The student body returns to the campus as late as Sunday night or Monday morning as transportation facilities permit. The first glimpse of the study table brings the realization that Monday's lessons are unprepared. A few become conscience stricken because of the lessons which they have not
had time to prepare. The few who do manage to squeeze out a short time for preparation for lessons do them so hurriedly that the completed work is sally inferior.
Every vacation is the same, and has been the same as far back as college vacations have existed. Still some professors feel the need of assigning holiday lessons, optimistically believing that some Monday after vacation the millennium will come, and students will retrace with their lessons prepared.
THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
Even though the retiring President may feel that his message will have little weight with congreses, he follows the policies in his message which he has advocated during his terms of office. For a congress that has opposed as many of his measures as the last one has he recalls it a great deal of credit.
Mr. Cooley sticks to his policy on advocating a defense equal to the needs of the country. Although he favors the construction of more enriches for the navy, he is almost enthusiastic about the Kellogg Peace treaty. In only one place is there the least hint that he regrets it as little more than a serap of paper. This comes when he states that the treaty does not superseize our盟军 sovereign right and duty of national defense. He also infers that the treaty could be broken if necessary. In voicing this attitude the President has re-echoed the thoughts of many American citizens—that the part is like any other treatment except for the number of signers, or that it, like the others may be broken.
The President seems to feel that his hold on congress is slippery. But the father who no longer has control of his son, he advises it to bear of any great expense, and to proceed slowly in matters that involving great expenditures. The greatest bit of advice in his message is for this prosperous country not to allow prosperity run riot with it and "In addition to dealing justly, we can well afford to walk humely."
THE SOCIALISTS SCORE
Mr. Rooney's plan for a three-billion dollar "property insurance" construction reserve continues to draw favorable comment throughout the land. Whether it is ever put into effect or not, it may now fairly be said to have been adopted as a principle advocated by the Republican party.
A few years ago the idea were brought forth by a group of socialists. It bad line politicians greeted with horror. Business men gave it the usual classification of "rational" and predicted dire things for the country if such signatories were not suppressed. But Governor Brewer's New Orleans speech seems to have been without disastrous effect on the stock market. The government continues on a firm basis. The Socialists found in large numbers in university circles, have again put across a party platform plank without electing a candidate.

"SEE NEW ENGLAND AUTUMN"
AUTUMN"
But there are not enough persons who know that to be so. There are not enough to enable all the hotels should keep open. What New England wants is to prolong its tourist season from three months to five; and if the October business should also be more year-round places.
The fact is that New England in jacket is nearly, if not quite, the most beautiful place in the world. For it we are merely to屠猎, the period f the autumn foliage is by far the nest of the whole year and there is much that can be United States which can quite compete with as a beauty show.

World's Astronomers Are Preparing for Malaysian Eclipse in May, 1929
"Inside Stuff"
--or end of an eclipse. This gives important knowledge of the outer layer of the sun, the "embraque sphere," and so on. We observe the "Einstien effect." This is the deflection of the light of the stars as they pass the sun, and can only occur when the star is close to the sun. This is one of the experimental proofs of the Einstein theory of relativity, and though it was found to exist at early times in 1922, further evidence is desirable.

COLLEGIATE RALLYGO
For a long time the public has been exploited by those pretending to give it warrants that are in some indemnities or as official honors, at a theatre, or spirit. Shoes clobbers tend to promote women's trade by sailing them the Stevah eight button boot couded over the water at our leading backwash about college students and tutored collegiate dances given by an enrolled variety clubs but in reality attended about town exploring the student.
-Washington Evening Star
The result of this mispresentation is that people come to doubt the value of a college education and come to regard a university campus as a place where the idle rich come to drink in a philanderous life with the opposite sex.
There are on the market at present, several magazines purporting to give the very essence of college life through their stories and in their larger human sections. These public and private satire on, and the most false burlesque of college life, which are recognized as such by those for whom they were originally intended, the college students but which are accepted public as私用 and retrained as college students utilize their time.
The Mid-West College Comics Association meeting on the campus this week will probably examine its research and development, legally collegiate graduate. If it is found that these relations are conducive to a better understanding between colleges and the public conference, then it seems that the relationship is opposed to the heat interests of the colleges in general, or the humor magisterial position of a professor who is broken. The Mid-West Association is now old enough to stand on its own fact. The question of how to reach the desirable from a business or from any other standpoint is debatable. Nevertheless there is no reason why the exploitation of students by outwardly disgraced-Minnesota daily.

A French party will go to Cochin China. There will also be neighbors of their location is still unknown.
Cerros to Be Photographed
Perhaps the most important objection to be made will be the photographic exposure of the outer part of the sun, and though extending for as much as a million miles from the sun's surface, is or possibly invisible because of its faulty lens, it can still clearly discern the bright globe of the sun does the corona flash out. An ellipse of the sun cannot possibly last more than 7 minutes and 40 seconds. Most astronomers believe the sun be satisfactorily observed occurs on the average only once in several years, the astronomers make the most of their opportunities of observing this important part of the sun.
