PLEASE DON'T
"Don't", says the housemother;
"Dont" says the co-ed; "Dont" says the collegian; and "Dont" says the professor.
Now there is nothing wrong with the contraction of the two words "do not" into "don't." But when the speaker gets careful and subtitles erroneously the contraction "don't!" for the words "does not" it's a different matter.
Whether or not the common one of the grammatically incorrect "don't" will ever be accepted because of its wide usage is a debatable question, and one which it will take decades to answer. The tendency at present, a lamentable tendency at that, is to use the wrong word just because every one else does it.
The fact, of course, is that everyone does not use the word. The tendency which makes it difficult to correct such a mistake is that the people who make it do not realize it. To them everyone may use it for all they know. To the person to whom it is an actual blow to the combination, the use of the error seems to be spreading. For what professors use it—what hope?
We begin to think our father's days were the good old days. They were not taught home economics and child psychology.
COURTESY
A crowd of happy, carefree丝 dents filled the Hill street car, bound for town and its diversions. College youths, with jumally titted hats and violent spring neckwear, discured loudly on the probable nill-vailhasketball team and on "that keen oi t I had last night."
As the car progressed the seats filled rapidly until only standing room was left. Then two elderly women with gray hair entered and looked about for seats. No one observed them or made any move to give up his place; they were forced to stare for many long blocks until a vacant place finally gave them a chance to sit down and rest.
Courtney seems to be a lost art. Mere thoughtlessness, a timeworn excuse so often applied to modern youth, cannot serve in this case. The car was filled with college men, one of whom, at least, should have felt some compunction at retaining his seat.
Times change and we change with them; but such a thing as courtesy might still live.
According to the state law governing the doors of public buildings the inside of Watson library is outside.
COLLEGIATE SWELLED HEADS
The greatest danger which confronts graduates of universities is that they are likely to go out with the idea of their superiority over their fellow beings, thereby decreasing to a great extent the value of the "head start" they have obtained over others who have not the advantage of a college education.
"Upon you rests the responsibility," Charles E. Brinley, president of the American Pulley Co., said in a recent magazine article, "Remember her however that you have just begun. Attack your problem with due
modesty, with honesty, with imagination, and with a sense of humor.
For some reason, college students after four years on a campus, become imbued with the idea that during their five years training they have required some sort of superiority which certifies them to an inside truck to screen them to those who have not been at college and obtained a degree. This belief to a great extent detracts from the slight advantage college trained men and women hold. The truth of the matter is, at first college students are at a disadvantage. They are in a new world and environment. Everything is new to them, and they must adopt themselves to different conditions. Their advantage lies in the fact that they instigate themselves more readily, and one adapted they learn and advance more rapidly.
If college students leave their educational institutions with "sweeled beads," much of their advantages over those without a college education will be lost. They must feel their responsibility, or someone without these advantages will beat them in the race.
It has been several editions since we have read of "Red."
POLA AND RUDY
Budy has changed his abed. He is going to be married. That is, he thinks he is.
The chick has decided that he do not want tag home his recently divorced wife failed to make for him. He is being to marry Pola Negri, that is, if both feet have as they now do after a "four months" supreme test of love. Pola is going to Germany for four months while Ruby remains in Hollywood.
If absence makes their hands grow fonder. Rady and Pola will be married. Pola indulges that this love is the real thing. Rady is her superior man, her perfection. She should have by this time she has been short of bit herself.
The marriage will be a lasting link, life to beckon. P.O. acknowledges it is sometimes really serious she may in all difficulty. No one should dispute that he previews matrimonial ventures and adventures qualify her to make these statements.
Anyway, Rudy and Pola are to be married in four months—that is, they do not change their minds again. And this time it is forever.
Editorials From Other Hills
Under-Participation—Not Over Organization
(University of Washington Daily)
Two hundred thirty-eight organizations are on the campus, including the social fraternities and sororities. The majority of them are biosports, proximal fraternities and club camps.
Education is commonly thought of as class-room instruction, the kind you get from your textbook or course material. You can rumple your hair and sweat. That's one kind no doubt, but by no means the only kind. In fact it can probably truthfully be said that it isn't even necessary part of the University training.
This make of human relations demands constant contact between human beings. To be able to make the most of these contacts, to be able to get favorable reactions from the persons with whom you are dealing—that, The Daily believes, is one of the most important functions of education.
Over-organized? Now writ a moment before you say "yes."
Education includes something far broader than a pile of statistics stowed away in your brain. You aren't educated in the human sciences, but you are Archimedes or George Washington. Our present existence is based on the relations of human beings to each other. It is a cooperative world in which everyone is not alone. No person is totally self-efficient.
As *a* training laboratory for personal relationships—the kind of relationships on which society is based! The Daily can conceive of nothing more useful than these 228 organizations. Perhaps some of them serve no good purpose. Duds must be expected.
But what The Daily is most concerned about in the restructure*numbers belonging to these groups. A combination of this and the more misses back and look on.
The great danger is not over-organization. It is under-participation.
Plain Takes From the Hill
