TUESDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1923 A wise man keeps his wisdom to himself; an unwise man does not have any wisdom so he tells everybody about it. "GOD OF THE OPEN AIR" Out in the open, seated on a grassy knoll overlooking the lake, University women heard today the reports from their national W. Y. C. A. summer conferences. It was a different sort of meeting, different with the cool breath of autumn and the tang of wood smoke in the air, a meeting which few women could fail to enjoy. Now and then women gather in close crowded rooms and find there inspiration for great deeds. But where can greater inspiration be found than in the colorful autumn world? FOR THOSE WHO SCOFF It's often possible for a fliver to pass a high powered car—if they're going in opposite directions. The statement that American colleges and universities not only are for enforcement of the Voldead Act to the letter but also realize the value of the measure as a means of raising America's moral standards supports in the recent publication of two student declarations in Eastern college organs. The 1924 Palaeocup, the senior student governing council of Dartmouth College. Hanover, N. H., said: Since it is apparent that the drinking of intoxicating liquors cannot but sally the good name of the college, Palaeopitus sets itself down as vigorously opposed to such drinking in Hanover and wherever the name of Dartmouth is concerned. This does not mean that Palaeopitus shall constitute itself a police force to parade Hanover streets in search of violators It does mean, however, that any persistent violation on the part of any individual or fraternity will bring immediate measures to protect the republic of the college. The Penn State Collegian, a semiweekly periodical, refutes the statement of the pessimistic who claim that the educational institutions of America connive at liquor drinking, and that the condition is becoming steadily worse. The wheels of progressive action should be set in motion for the extinction at this institution for all time of one of the most detrimental influences to the American college of today. Penn State cannot afford to her her name associated with the antics of a group of intolerated undergraduates or graduates, as the case may be. The fair name of the "institution is at stake when unthinking persons connected with the college lower their moral standards by using strong drink. Its editorial follows: Out-and-out expression of this kind is highly commendable. It means that, with the exception of the temperance societies, America's educational institutions are likely to pave the way toward better citizenship by tric observance of the nation's laws and by an insistence upon higher coral standards. Now when one hears of a millionaire in connection with watering stock, he could easily believe it to be the real farm kind. BROKEN BEADS Life in a university seems to be made up of little jokes, very similar to those received when a string of beads breaks and each bright bead goes bouncing, rolling, and tinkling into the most obscure corners. A freshman comes to the University with many hopes and ideals for what an educational institution and the people in it, in her estimation, should be. It does not take long for that string of beads to break—an idealized upperclassman shows that he is only human; the students are not super-beings; and many of the professors look like business man. Then the freshman seeks to retrieve those lost ideals and to painstakingly reconstruct them. To be sure, many of them are insignificant, but often it is the smallest bead that proves the most troubleome. She usually finds that a few are lost permanently—the others may be restring, but often it is impossible to form the old pattern. Sometimes the mending of a broken string of beads makes it much stronger than before, for the owner realizes the weakness of the old one and wisely seeks for something more substantial. Thus it is with ideals. The old give place to the new. And the new, made from the stuff of experience, are better able to withstand the strain which an everyday existence puts upon them. The attitude of many Americans toward the restriction of immigration is something like this, "You can slide down our cellar door but you can't pick our cat up by the tail." THE UNIVERSITIES AND PROHIBITION. The following editorial was run in the Topека Capital this morning. Chancellor Lindley comments upon it, or revises on another page of the Kanaan: In the compact between President Coolidge and the governors to combine for enforcement or prohibition, the President summoned the people of the United States to join in this co-operative effort to make law respectable and respected in the United States. In many cities where prohibition enforcement has been farcical, the newspapers have reported that it should be repealed, but have asserted that it should be enforced. In Chicago the only paper against enforcement is the Tribune. In Detroit, New York and Philadelphia as well as Chicago the stated papers in the main offices for enforcement of law. So far as schools are concerned, state universities at least should take their stand on this issue of government, and where they do not voluntarily do so legislatures should make this attitude compulsory. The Capitol building, the Chief Justice Taft's powerful plea to the alumni and students of Yale College to take an aggressive position for enforcement of the law, and President Angell notified the student body that drinking at Yale would now be a cause for summary expulsion. Several hundred Yale students reported to have joined in a pledge to cut liquor and obey the law. There should be no question about the attitude of the University of Kansas, in view of the outstanding record of this state, as to the 18th amendment. Our university should be out on the firing line for enforcement of the law, and if drinking is offended against us in disguise, it ought to be. This is not said in any critical spirit towards the student body, which we believe is exceptionally law-observing, nor the board of administration or faculty of the university, which are in full sympathy with law enforcement, but the standing of the university would be improved if it expressly went on record in some such way, and it would also be improved if the President and conference of governors to strengthen public sentiment. It is not necessary to wait for the meeting of the legislature before this stand is taken by the university or any and all of the higher education institutions. The legislature well might be the policy of the state, however, by making vi- Official Daily University Bulletin Copy received at the Chancellor's office until 11:00 a.m. Vol. III.
