THURSDAY, JANUARY 18, 1923 A day of fog in London is estimated to cost $8,625,000. Who pays it? A CRIMSON AND BLUE SKY A CRISMON AND BLUE SKY In the brief, flaming splendor of Tuesday evening's sunset sky appeared a phenomenon at once remarkable and beautiful. The gray wraaths of fog rising from the Wakarua valley against the brilliant crimson of the southwest sky produced an effect at least striking—perhaps portentous. Shortly before 6 o'clock the whole southwest from horizon to zenith was suffused with a perfect crimson. Three or four minutes passed, and the intense brightness was gone; in its place came the deep, rich red of dying embers. Then, almost instantly it seemed, streaks of fog rose across the sky, and were transformed into rugged bars of blue. The buildings of the University stood out as dark, irregular silhouettes against the crimson and blue bars of the heavens. American donghouses on the Rhine are marrying German girls. A popular novelist might term it: "the quenching of the fires of hate in a love as old as the ages." It is a current demonstration of the domination of the emotion, anger, by the sex-inimitet. BLACK We worm with black. It is the color of sadness and gloom. The mattress of Rome domed white robes in mourning. Why should the Christian people, whose belief is that the life beyond is not an empty black void, put on the garments of despair when death comes? Custom is an unreasonable mistrust at times. LIPPMANN AND TERMAN The New Republic for December 27 contains an article by Doctor Terman, apparently written in defense of the intelligence tests which Walter Lippmann has been picking to pieces in a series of articles just preceding the one by Doctor Terman. Terman, after three columns of scorching sarcasm, in which he answers none of Lippmann's arguments, nor even attempts to face the issues advanced by his critic, makes this statement: "Now it is evident that Mr. Lippmann has been seeing red; also that seeing red is not very conducive to seeing clearly. The impassioned tone of these six articles gives their case away." But, from a reading of Doctor Terman's three preceding columns this criticism of Mr. Lippmann was just what we were thinking of Doctor Terman, himself. In the remainder of his article Dr. Derman quotes "samples" of Mr. Lippmann's accusations, and holds them and Lippmann up to ridicule. His article as a whole leaves one with the feeling that he has dodged the issue by ridiculing his opponent when he should have squarely faced and answered the charges. "The Great Conspiracy," Doctor Terman violently named his article, "The Great Confusion," New Republic, January 4, is Lippmann's more temperate reply, in which he points out in the second paragraph that Terman has not answered his criticisms: "Certainly' I feel entitled to assume that Mr. Ternan's reply contains the most damaging criticism of my articles which he is able to make therefore, I shall take no space to restate any of my conclusions which Mr. Ternan has not challenged." The reader who enjoys a game of "you hit me—i clap you back," cannot but enjoy the word-thrust of Lippmann and Terman, but to one of hisrous of learning more about the widely discussed intelligence tests, these last two articles on the subject in the New Republic were a distinct disappointment. Any psychologist who can forget personal feelings and who can answer Lippmann with sound arguments has a task ahead. Now that they are sending power by radio, say some hundred thousands of volts, pity the poor fellow that "listens in" on the General Electric station. During the recent discussion of reparations, many readers of the daily papers have failed to note the exact location of the Ruhr valley. It is the territory located between the two mountains of German marks and French francs. ALL RABBITTS After submitting a questionnaire to twelve thousand foreign students, a promoter Y. M. C. A. worker finds that the charge of bootastiness is considered one of the greatest faults of our country. And the charge is true. We boast in ringing voices of the government for which we stand, with numerous hackeyed phrases of "land of liberty," and "God's country." If we are Republicans we boast of our President. If not, we boast of our Democratic principles. We boast of our educational systems, of our great cities, and of our far-famed buildings. We even take credit, sometimes, for the workings of nature, and boast of our sunsets. The man who boasts the loudest of his country's laws is the one who surpripidifiably buys moonshine from the degenerate bootleger down the street. The man who buots of our educational system is probably the one who fakes his income tax to avoid paying his money into the upkeep of those institutions. We are all Babbits, boasting constantly of our "Zeniths", anxious to impress our visitors, and taking the noisest way of doing it. Plain Tales From The Hill A member of the University Club was telling his accounting class of the sad death and burial of a little kitten. The minds of the students have vainly been trying to grasp the fundamentals of the course. They always try to make practical applications. "Debit fertilizer and credit cat." The scene was the chemical laboratory. A student was putting away his materials, moving slowly and methodically about. An exasperated student ran to the counter to situate for his turn. Finally he said: "Say, have you ever been to the "Well," responded the other, "you ought to go down there. You'd enjoy sitting down and watching the tortoises whiz past you." "Say, have you ever been to the zoo?" Opportunity rings at every man's door, but sometimes the electric battery isn't working. "No," answered the slow-moving one. "Why?" a new recruit for the R. O. T. C reported for drill. "Do you want me to keep time with my feet?" he asked the captain. Jayhawks Flown John A.
