MONDAY, APRIL 28, 1924 THE GRAND RUSH THE GRAND RUSH "Oh the wild charge they made ... All the world wondered." And now, ladies and gentlemen, we start into the last grand rush with five weeks to go and a clear road ahead. The brakes are off, and the typewriter is greased for the final thesis. Yea, many of them. The old 'bicerre glim gets its last cleaning for the grand finale. The last Easter egg is gulped down, while the May basket is full of gum and all ready to hang. We're hitting on six and there's not a cow on the track. Gentlemen, we're going like one of Milton's famous worlds. The finish looms before us. The four wheel brushes will soon be set with one glorious screen and the spairs will fly. With one tremendous bump we will land at the goal with a shock that will send some of us flying into the harvest field and the other half into three months of discard passing out the apple sauce in the village sewing circle. The spring poem blooms, the quiz book flourishes, and the sheep gently bass in pleasant anticipation of having his skin stretched for the dotted line. Spring is here, and the final is tearting down the gangway. The pice is killing, but we have got to keep six jumps ahead. It eighty degrees in the shade and there's one in the registrar's office. With nature against us, we have got to forge ahead. Time, title and the final wait for no man. We are whistling into the station on a full head of steam. To coast in will mean defeat. So it's up men and have at them, and curs' be he who first cries hold, enough. The gentle drops of mercy fall like collied stones on a bald mans' head around this University. The exhuberant cry is yet to be heard and is the cry, "We have met the enemy and they are ours." The Klan will aid in stopping pot parties in an Alabama town. Nothing short of the fire department would stop it here on the Hill. WOMEN—AWAKEN! **WOMEN—AWAKEN.** “Where are the women voters?” writes a writer in the Review of Reviews. “Women have been voting throughout the United States for four years. They have not fulfilled their prophecy that they would bring about a political milieu; neither have they fulfilled the prophecy that the would shatter the American home. "Having sowed, they are reaping a whirlwind of criticism just before their second national election." Where are the women voters? Only 49 per cent of the nation's qualified voters, men and women, went to the polls in 1920. Where are the women voters? It seems that they are at home where they always have been, and whence a needy nation must bring them, if it is to have the votes of any considerable proportion of its electorate when a President is chosen next November. Will the women vote? If the child labor bill becomes an amendment to the constitution, somebody will probably make a million bootlegging children into the factories. Honduras has three "preclaimed president" and three cabinets. Great investigation possibilities for the Honduran Congress. CLAMS, SPONGES AND CORALS All you need to break into Chicago society is a hatchet and a victim. When the average American hears about recognizing the Bolahevik government of Russia, repliquishing the Negro rights with us, or admitting the facts in theories of evolution, he draws inside his shell and says nothing, or perhaps makes a feeble defense of his beliefs, then closes his auditory and thought cells to any further information or truth. A few people, accept everything they boar, absorb it like a sponge. They expell it the next day, and take in a new draught. They are 'wisky-washy,' emotional, easily influenced, and have no minds of their own. They are too ready to change. But clams make excellent soap, if you like it, and their shells make fine pearl buttons. Sponges dry out on the bathroom shelf. Corals, however, take in their food which might be likened to information. Then they build up substance that is valuable. True, it sometimes wrecks ships, but the captains had not learned their charts, and determined where these coral reefs are. If there were more corals who were willing to open their mouths to pure information, digest it, and build up their body of knowledge anew, when they died channels of conduct would be established that would mean smoother and safer sailing for the next generation; if they followed the charts. BURNING BILLBOARDS Last night a group of angry Kansas Citizens burned down a billboard which a poster advertising company had just erected. The demonstration was but an incident in the campaign the city is making against glaring signs, raucous posters, screening billboards and cubist barbier-poles. It pays, and in more ways than one, to advertise; hence, advertising is a good thing. But it is characteristic of Americans not to realize that too much of a good thing is worse than nothing, until the nation becomes suddenly aware that things are being overdone, and in the frenzy of reform, chooses the opposite extreme, as a means of stabilization, rather than the temperate middle path. Witness any of our sudden sweeping reform movements—and their reactions. Witness also, the outraged beauty spots of America, our theaters, athletic fields, playgrounds, church programs, trottly cars, varant lot, city streets—almost any place one can cast in his eyes upon—covered with glaring, screeching advertisements. Conservative advertisements are to be encouraged as an economic factor. The advertiser, however, must learn one thing. A good thing can be overdone. THAT GREAT SOMETHING "I hate hate, its horrors, and mmauses, and I take it bar my har in profound pity before the graves of the men who have been its victims, regardless of nationalities." These were the words uttered by Karl Whitting, the German bicycle vider at the conclusion of a motor-paced race which he won recently in Paris. True to his sentiment, Whittig placed the bouquet given him at the foot of a monument to the French bicycle riders who perished in the var. And these very words will find an echo in the hearts of countless thousands who suffered as a result of the great conflict. Georges Carpenter is again coming to America to fight. This time Tom Gibbons will knock him out with one hand while he picks up a hundred thousand with the other mitt. There is a breath of a view, springing out of suffering which is wider than nationalism and larger than any so-called patriotic sentiments. Georges is the bird that dozed off to dream of the beaches of Deauville, while Dempsey hit him between the eyes with three hundred thousand tips for Monte Carlo.
