THURSDAY, MARCH 11, 1920. TORCH Congratulations are extended to the nine girls who have been secretly and steadily working for their University since last spring, and just yesterday were announced as Torches. Great respect and sincere admiration are due these women for having attained this, the highest honor. Everything that was for the good of the University, are the things for which they were selected. They are women who have been in the front rank of student activities—women who really "get out and do things" for the doing, and not for the honor. These nine women—Mary Samson, Iris Russell, Edna Burch, Rilia Hammat, Margaret Lodge, Helen Jackson, Lillian Cottrell, Eileen Van Sandt, and Nellie Reeves Evans—were elected last Spring by last years' Torches and society's faculty advisers. Scholarship perhaps had a little to do with their selection, but their activity in school affairs, and the manner in which they supported them. Only they themselves and their faculty advisers know of all the things they have materially aided in "putting across." Don't worry because you have no government bonds. The bank burglara seem to be getting away with them with increasing frequency. THE PLAYS THE THING The announcement that a play has been given by a Kansas City church shows how history moves in cycles. The ancient forbear of the drama was the miracle-play which was created to serve the church. The people had no books, and living pictures of the vital Bible stories taught them how to live and die. In process of time the church came to believe that the theater fostered all the powers of evil. Puritism locked the door upon nearly every form of artistic expression and threw away the key. It has taken the world a long time to learn that true religion is broad enough and deep enough to enlist all sorts of human interest in the interpretation of the truth. Modern life demands more and more the pictorial quality, and hence the flood of modern plays and the popularity of the movies. Sunday schools have followed the example of the day schools in presenting plays more or less entertaining and instructive. Under wise direction there has been a revival of old mystery and morality plays, pagery has been adopted for many prolific purposes, special plays are written So when St. John's Church in Kansas City announces that a play given in the auditorium theater has netted $2,000 towards the payment of a debt, it causes no astonishment. It is just the title of the play, "The Man She Loved" that produces rather a cheeked feeling. And not having read or seen the play judgment is prohibited. Doubts it depicted in some sense our human responsibility in our highest relations', and the good must triumph over evil even in the most sensational screen production. The question for the church is one of selecting the best things in order to do her work, and no individual should be content with anything lower. You can't lift yourself up by your boot-straps but if your soul and body are properly geared, you can wade right through your troubles. HOW IT WILL WORK Once adopted how will government function under the proposed new constitution to be voted on for adoption next Thursday? The judicial powers within the jurisdiction of the Associated Men of the University is vested in the Council and Advisory Assembly. The Council and Assembly are student organizations with the full power of legislation. But when these bodies are to determine upon their action in matters of student concern they are to have the assistance of a committee of three from the faculty. It shall advise and confer with the Council with regard to all matters affecting students. The committee is a check on any unwise action which may be contemplated. Provision has been made for the settlement of questions at issue between the faculty and students. A committee called the Joint Committee on Student Affairs composed of faculty members, members of the W. S. G. A. and the Student Council shall act as a clearing house in all such cases. When the joint interests of the men and women of the University are concerned they shall be considered through a committee of the Student Council acting with a similar committee from the W. S. G. A. as a joint Student Council. The judicial powers have been carefully provided for in order to insure absolute fairness in dealing out justice. USE YOUR OPPORTUNITY How are you voting? for special occasions, and the play to you first of all and make yourself once more seems to be the hand-madeen worthy of such forbears as the makers 'the church. fo your Constitution. This does not mean on what party are you voting or for what man are you voting. It simply means—are you voting blindly or are you voting with your eyes wide open and your ears alert for knowledge of the coming election? Some leniency may be used in judging the poor and thoughtless; voting of the ignorant classes of people. They either do not have or take the time to look into matters which are so vital to their country. For a university student to vote without knowing how or why he is doing so, is a disstraction to the educational institutions of the nation and the individuals who are just entering upon their most active duties as citizens. There is a class of individuals who get their learning from the other side of the mountain. They look over the great opportunities which lie almost under their noses and think they are doing their parts as American citizens by becoming literary geniuses or expert mathematicians. And meanwhile the theory of an ideal government rumbles about their feet. These are the people who expect to go out and teach the progeny of the United States, to teach them about rhythm and the isoceles trianglet and let them go to the polls for the first time to vote for Mr. Political Puppet just because this father was a member of the party for Perilous Policies. Utilize the possibility for your training as a citizen of the United States. Study your government and its needs harder than any other source of knowledge. The better your government grows the easier you will find to receive training in other lines. Let your duties as a citizen come home NECKTIES Consider well the necktie. Foremost of all the habilizm of civilization it stands, or rather is tied around, the compass of the entire gamut of life. Within its circlet passes the life of the race, for does not the esophagus carry all fuel to the fire of existence? Does not the throat carry all notes and sounds to man, and provide the heartstone and the sewage pipe for the fire of oxygen? We were the circumference of the scarf but half its present size, man could be but half his size, for the throat and esophagus could take in only half the amount of air and food used now. Neckties have ever been the symbol of civilization. Springing up only since the downfall of the Dark Ages and the feudal system, neck scarfs have been developing to a point where they are recognized as a necessary accessory to any human, of moderate decency, who purports to hold himself above the cave man and the aborize.
