FAR O'ER THE VALLEY A WEAPON FOR DEFENSE When books grow stale and friends see mtrying, turn your back upon them all and take yourself to the slope at the south side of the campus. Let your gaze drift over the valley from farmhouse to orchard and from Orchard to browning field until it loses itself in the blur of the rimming hills. Then ask yourself if the world is not good. Propaganda is a potent thinir. In the hands of the unscrupulous it becomes a terrible weapon; but like high explosives and powerful drugs its might can be turned into worthy channels; it can be used for the furherance of causes just and right. The liquor interests in this country are not dead. On the contrary, they are fighting now, as election time draws near, as they have never fought before, and their weapon is propaganda. But their instrument of atack has been turned against them; a few publications on the prohibition side of the fence have caught up the publicity fight with a vengeance. The propaganda of the liquor interests is of the most subtle sort—clever in the extreme. One sees it creeping into publications of questionable character and even into some of the better papers; perhaps the commonest form is the joke which attempts to point out the ineffectiveness of prohibition. Buried in a news item, one finds a word, a phrase, or a sentence which is not news, which is in no way essential to the story, but which casts an ugly light upon the institution of prohibition. Those are just a few of the methods employed by the liquor interests; there are countless others. Not long since, a religious newspaper of the East, a daily paper of great influence and nation-wide circulation, saw just what the rum manufacturers were trying to do and how they intended to accomplish their ends. That paper immediately began a publicity campaign so thorough and so dazzling that the propaganda of the "wets" is being overshadowed; hardly a move of the liquor interests escapes the merciless light of newspaper publication. Not only is this paper devoting its own news columns to the fight, but it is also purchasing advertising space in other publications throughout the country in order to tell America just what John Barley corn is trying to do. Now other papers are joining with this leader in the fight for the retention of the eighteenth amendment and for prohibition enforcement. We cannot all agree with every principle set forth in that religious newspaper of the East; we cannot all be of that denomination; but, certainly, we can join in admiration for the noble thing which that publication is doing—for the manner in which it has made propaganda a cogent force for good. Every dog has his day. At Hutchson they hauled a hound into court o identify his rightful owner. THE WORLD'S SERIOUS The mere commonplace things of this mundane sphere must step aside while Bambino Ruth steps up to the pan with the intent of butchering one if Jess Barnes' best. Just fancy pursuing the even tenes of your way when such men as Ruth and Meusel are clothing out extra base singles and snatching three-sackers out of the ozone! The very best authorities assure us that when Art Nethg gets his luchs wrapped around the apple it means some of the earnest young devotees are going to whiff". And so it goes, ad limitum. It is the most interesting argot of the diamond—an indication of a disease that grips grown men during three months o the year. It isn't supposed to be intelligible, but if you question its entertaining propenaties just watch some follower of the sport chuckle as he reads it. And there is still another element. A goodly share of the interest manifested is somewhat heightened by touches of green and silver here and there. For the world of aport a man's opinion is only respected when he, to use his own terms, "puts his money where his mouth is." Professors and seminars have their place in the order of things; of that there can be no doubt. Just where that place is or how much of the concrete whole it occupies is a matter open for some discussion. But when two of the nation's best baseball teams square away for a seven-game series surely it is high time for the youth of the land to lay aside their books for a very early morning paper, and devote their minds to matters of unquestioned import. THE MOVIE PEST We like the bird who reads the subtitles aloud and makes irrelevant comments as the story progresses on the screen. He makes the picture so much more understandable, you know, with his near-witticisms and merry "haw-aww" at the most dramatic episodes. We like him, if you will interp- "like" to mean a desire to grab him in the immediate vicinity of his egilgotis in a strangle-hold! Once in a while you will meet a per sonage who believe that his remarks are "funny," and that his spontaneous outbursts are a constant source of merriment to those people immediately about him, and often you come into close contact with him in a motion picture theatre. He is a hybrid, a cross between a snob and an ill-bred egotist. He likes attention; he covets the apilause of his fellows. And his weary attempts at humorous remarks are but an indication of the fact that he is trying to thrust himself into the limelight. His malady might well be termed "self-adoration." There is but one way to avoid such a nuisance. Change your seat! When he finds that he is playing to an empty house, he will drop the curtain on the entertainment. If you cannot restrain yourself, throttle him, with our blessing upon you! Her Master's Voice The latest thing is the vocal love letter. There was much excitement at a certain soriority house the other day when one of the sisters received instead of her daily letter, a package containing cash for the ITS IHF hardware. We'll wager the awain's words fell upon more ears than he had anticipated. Plain Tales From The Hill A certain professor, was talking to one of our recent British guests after the convoction. Referring to the "Rock Chalk" the Englishman said: "Yes, it is impressive. I could not make out the words, but I gathered it was some sort of Greek benediction, was it not?" More punch, B. W. C.

He says, however, that he would never advise a college student to take up the game as a professional and an instruction that would fit him to make a living in another way.
