THE LAST STAND Planted on the dying roots of a pretty grove of campus trees, the new library is to be erected as a center piece to the industrial section of the University grounds. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 10. 1927 Our insilent halls will do their best to retain the dignified quiet common to places of study, even though surrounded by neighbors who shelter clicking lineotypes and grinding precess or notoseme dynamics and coal stokers or, still move distrubing, the whir, burs and clank of shop workers. Our front doors may stand the rebellious colors of the zoological laboratories, and its walls can be cleaned of the soot from the tall, neighborly smoke stack, but some wonder how the books will like their new resting place, which is to be encroached by a railroad track. THE MIDDLE AGES Yes, perhaps, the commonwealth of Shakespeare, Dante and Dryden might even want to vote on the matter. It may be possible that there is an individual volume which would tell the ideal of the spot for study—as to whether it shall be amid coal bankers or on a quiet hillide, say a little north of the Dyne Museum. With the frayed ends of tendons protruding from the bodies where the arms and legs had been torn off before death, the corpse of two victims of the wrath of a secret society were taken from the bottom of a lake in Louisiana. That is the sort of thing the Inquisition produced a few centuries ago. Time does not change human nature much. "AN EYE FOR—" France is preparing to exact her pound of flesh. Dispatches from Berlin, Essen, and London yesterday reported that French troops were preparing to occupy the Ruhr and that advance troops were within a few miles of Essen. France, insisting that as the Treaty of Versailles was a treaty of force and that thus the success of the treaty depended upon the ability of the allies to enforce it, is now going to occupy German territory in an effort to collect German reparations. The outcome may be any one of several things. Germany may go into bankruptcy and may have to be taken over and administered, or the French may collect their reparations and depart without harm. Then again the occupation may send flashing through Europe the spark of war. And with 4,500,000 men under arms in Europe—a greater number than in 1918—the situation is already grave. The occupation may be another Serajeve incident and Europe would be thrown into another war, made more terrible by the advance of civilization. It is about a five-to-one chance that the occupation will be completed with results favorable to France. Yet France, ever demanding full measure and her vision into the future always blurred by prejudices of the past—is taking the risk. What the result will be, time only will tell. But the move is typically French. Forever heedless of the warnings of history and circumstances, they advance where "angels fear to tread." They are going to exact their pound, down to the ounce—a French characteristic throughout history. MARRIAGE DISILLUSIONED The other day someone gave judge Ben Lindsey of the Denver juvenile court a bunch of divorce statistics. That learned gentleman looked them over, waved them in the air, and made the declaration that marriage was a failure. Statistics are a very feeble support for an opinion of any kind. There's something sinister and treacherous about them. There isn't a thing that can't be proven by statistics. America is still full of homes where wives love their husbands and husbands love their wives, in spite of statistics. Dads will still work, save, and plan for the welfare and the futures of their children. Golden weddings will still be celebrated. Sons will continue to think dad is a good fellow outside his financial possibilities. Daughters will love their mothers even though the mothers may not approve of the latest fashions. "Home, Sweet Home" has not yet its appeal. Statisticians, spare our homes! Divine Sarah says if she were to sat, she would die. If that were me, even the cat's nine lives wouldn't save the pool-hall loater. A STRIDE FORWARD The state supreme court of Nevada on January 6 unheld the constitutionality of the law passed three years ago providing for infiltration the death penalty by asphyxiation in a lethal gas chamber. By this method the condemned prisoner is painlessly and quietly put to sleep and is saved much of the arrows of mind that accompanies the property. At best the death penalty is a terrible thing, and the time must come when men will realize that killing the body does not reform the mind. That time is not yet, but Novach des- res a place of honor for this step forward in the cause of humanity. At Lansing they are fighting now over the Garden of Eden. The diplomats will soon be quarrelling over who stole the apple. Book Review "When winter comes to slain Street, in the warm homes behind the lighted window panes, people will be asking for something to read good to read." "When Winter Comes to Main Street," is the title of a clever and worth-while book by Grant Overer. He asks his readers to make Our Novels,"written to satisfy this need. As Mr. Overton says quite frankly, his book is an advertisement of Doran books and authors. The book is both interesting and instructive. Mr. Ovettron has a pleasant, informal way of talking about writers that makes them seem real and human. The reader is apt to forget that he is interested in Hugh Walpole was born in the Antipodes and was sent to England to be educated, spending his holidays as "a minute and pale-faced 'paying guest' in various houses where other children were of more importance than him." He later understood how Mr. Walpole came to write the sympathetic "Jerome" story And then for a chapter Mr. Overton talks interestingly on the "Half-Snails and gestures," that he says, "encourage the youthful writers of today." "These half-similes are, 'I take it,' says Mr. Royent, "youth's comment on the riddle of a continued existence, on the loss of well-lost illusions, on the loss of life," he writes. His chapter titles are intriguing. "Where the Plot Thickens" introduces the reader of a master of mystery stories, Frank L. Packard. "Andicious Mr. Bennett" speaks for itself, and Mr. Bennett concludes "ja-well, judge for yourself." “Of the making of books, there is no end!” but of the making of any single book, there must come an end,” says Grant Overton. “Yet what is the end of a book but the beginning of another?” And this is “When Winter Comes to Main Street” means to its readers—a host of new friends.
