"I was very nervous," he said, "returning,回来, under the date of March 8, 1977, week and on Sunday morning by sturgeon in the second day of the second season of *East of Russia*, from the Press of the newspaper." FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1925 It has been reported that there was one Missouri valley football player who wasn't placed on anybody's all-valley team, or even given honorable mention. Down at Columbia, Mo., it seems that the black and gold Tiger has been staggering with a red nose upon unsteady paws. According to reports, liquor at the University of Missouri has been flowing quiet freely. THE MISSING DRINK But the Missouri Tigress has stamped her dainty pair and snarred her protest in the form of a W. S. G. A. Volvent act. If the Tiger wants to play with her, he must lay off the "wook" stuff and find a nice comfortable seat on the town water truck. It is a fact that there is entirely too much drinking of intoxicating liquors on the part of college students. This is said but true. This set of the University of Missouri women is deserving of much praise. But like the original Volunteet act, we wonder how well it will be enforced. A buried city, revealing an ancient civilization, has been unearthed in Missouri. We are glad that they were civilized over there at one time. THE PIPES OF PAN—DEMO NUM The blaring blast of the muted cornet and the treblebone and the wild erase meaning laughs of the bizarre saxophone will no longer accompany the tinkling ripple of the baby grand, the squeaky rick of the violin and the rat-a-tat-tat and booming thump-um-pump of the drums at the Kansas State Teacher's College. The saxophone no longer laughs, but woope and wipes its eyes as it sobsly tells the sulken horn what it thinks of the latest idea of the dean of women. Horns and axiophones must be eliminated at school dances. Not even a passport will get one through the doorway of the Terpsichorean halls at the Emporia teachers' college. No longer will they wicked instruments of Satan tempt the heels of the future teachers of our future children in the devilish heel kicks of the Resclubbian Charleston and Metaphlecobian Fimale Hop. Sport writers are getting grossly negligent as to details. None of them have recorded yet just what size shoes "Red" Grumwear wears, and whether his father uses a Ford truck or some other make to deliver loe. AFTER SIGNING, WHAT? The Locero security pact has been signed by leading statesmen of Europe. This "charter of peace" is a pledge whereby the dignitary powers have agreed not to make war against each other but to submit their differences to arbitration. The German representatives, showing the signs of the battle that they had waged in order to get the measure passed, were also present. Distinguished statesmen met in a unique ceremony, amid all the magnificent surroundings of the reception hall of the English foreign office. Certainly the signing of this treaty is a great step forward toward world peace, and with the important ma- tions of Europe agreeing to its terms, it should carry weight to the lesser nations of the world. Every nation in the world has had an over-abundance of war in the past ten years, and so each is groping blindly for some method of escape. European countries now realize that it would be impossible for them to carry on a war such as the last one, so they are earnestly seeking peace. May the lesson that they have just experienced last them throughout the history of the world. However, if some of them soon choose to regard the treaty as "a scrap of paper" as one member of the present signers once did, then all efforts for peace have been in vain as far as the present generation is concerned. The World Court affords the same principles, only on a larger scale and to a greater number of nations. Proposals for peace should be given an adequate length of time midst favorable circumstances, in order to prove their predictability before being discarded. We suppose along about Jan. 1, the Kansas City Star will be telling the children of ferocious grasshoppers in western Kansas devarring tough old jack rabbits, and predicting a big shortage in Easter eggs. IS THE UNITED STATES A DEMOCRACY? Will the vote of the Senate of the United States be the true expression of the American people when it takes the final action for or against the World Court? This is one of the most vital questions that has faced the youth of this country, and the students are working and showing a keen interest in this which must be felt by the senators. Is our nation, the wealthiest in the world, going to be excluded from this Court of Justice if she does not enter at this time? Are we as a country going to be allied with Turkey, Russia, and other minor countries on this plan? Will the foreign countries grow entirely independent of us and give us no regard? Such are the points that the students are thinking of, for this group will be carrying on the government 'of the country and the foreign relations of the nation in the near future, and they should have a hearing concerning the entrance of the United States into this World Court. Whether the vote be for the Hughes-Harding-Cooledge Plan or the Harmony Plan it will show that the United States is ready to take a share in this international work, and receive her place in the world. Missouri University has elected two captains for her next year's football team. Now how is that going to help them beat us? It is reported that two freshmen appeared on the campus Friday morning wearing freshman caps. School spirit is a common topic of conversation with the students. Everyone talks about it as if it were something physical, physical, something tangible like a building. Everyone takes it for granted as if it were a book that could be checked out at the library and used when occasion demanded. SCHOOL SPIRIT Occasionally one hears that the school "certainly has the old pen, the old spirit," or an individual has a "one school spirit"—but what is meant by school spirit? Every student talks of school spirit, but few there are who can talk what it really is. Each one will have a different answer, and each will probably be only partly correct. School spirit is not something that one can carry around, to have always at one's beck and call. It must be developed, and like all that endures, it must be built on bed-fock. It is shown by the actions of each individual throughout the year, not in regard to football and athletics, alone, but toward all school interests and activities. It is something not angi- We were at a loss to explain so many murders in Chicago until we learned that they have four broadcasting stations on the air in that town practically every night.

Plain Tales From the Hill A freshman was discussing a letter he had received from the principal of his high school after having sent home his mid-tencent student. "You don't have to worry about a whole page about how now was the time of the elimination of the weakest," said the student, and added with a sad grunt, "dog-gone if I don't feel weak in the knees." A geology professor had been trying to keep the class awake by explaining a new theory regarding the Earth's history, and may prove that this table is electricity, that this rock is electricity, and that we are electric," he said, then added with an owlish smile, "but I charge with it very highly charged this afternoon. A physics professor was discussing an obsolete thermometer, once used in brewers, "The other day," he said, "I saw one of these thermometers. I stood and looked at it for some time for its location and probable use was interesting. It was in a fraternity house." Old English LAVENDER WATER SWEET Lavender!
