TUESDAY, MARCH 18, 1924
Attorney General Daugherty says to his enemies "there isn't a charge that could be made to stick." But he himself has become a charge and he is sticking to his place too.
INTERESTING CONTEMPT
"It is all very well to have cor empt for the established forms, but contempt in such instances must be for all its bravado, interesting."
This excerpt from a criticism by George Jean Nathan in the American Mercury shows a tolerance and insight which does credit to that splendid monthly. It also embodies the vital criticism which may be made of youth today.
The inherent evil of college life is not that students drink, smoke, and pet, but they do these things self-consciously—affect them as a pose, not sincerely, and as Mr. Nathan phrases it, interestingly.
Contempt for the established order simply because it is the fashionable attitude to assume is not one whit better—or worse—than adherence to conventions simply because they are conventions.
Progress, is after all, not so much a matter of institutions as of scales of mind. Youth is, accomplishing nothing by being contemptuous if it cannot also be interesting.
There is a painting in the Brynwood collection entitled "Sunset at a Ford." Why not "in a Ford"—or "Under a Ford."
POLITICAL SCANDALS
POLITICAL SCANDALS Hill politics is not splattered with oil. Perhiza it would be better if it were. Hill officials have not been discovered squandering public funds on riotous parties, but if such an exposure were made it would at least dispel the dead apathy which characterizes student attitude toward student government.
Recent revelations of corruption in national government are alarming the thinking public, but they are doing more than that. They are arising it to reformatory action.
Shocking as are such discoveries as that of the oil scandal and the infamous misandling of funds by the Veterans' Bureau, they at least can not be viewable calmly. The national public which is supposed to govern is becoming conscious of its own misgovernment, as the smaller political community on Mount Orad seems unable to do.
Probably no shocking misgovernment is being perpetrated on the Hill. The most self-effort criticism which can be made is that there is more machinery of government than is needed—that the University is conscript-constitution-officials-mad — that it loses sight of the purpose of government in the more mechanics of political organization.
It might almost be better if a truth political scandal could be unearthed and flaunted in the astounded faces of student voters. They have been importomed spamatically and vainly, in posters, speeches and editorials, to manifest an active interest in self-government.
But still, while the posters grow dim and the speakers grow hoares and the editorials fall into the waste-hasket unread, the sturdy stagnail pool of Hill government remains un stirred.
AIR MAGELLANS
The names of Magellan, Drake, Columbus, and other daring explorers have long symbolized the age of romance in history and in the minds of the people. Stories of these brave men have sent many small boys into daydreams behind their histories of the adventures they would undertake when they "grew-up"...day dreams from which they were so often awakened by the insistent rapping of the teacher's ruler upon a desk, whose many scars showed that they were not the only boys to be awakened from such dreams.
There are no more contents, to be discovered, no unknown saills to sail, but in this modern age of invention these are no reason for small boys to cease dreaming of great explorations.
Lieut. Col. William E. Gillmore at the head of three world cruisers escorted by eighteen army and navy fliers has started on a flight around the world. What must have been these men's dreams as small boys that they should undertake the exploration of the uncharted air? Who can say that the days of romance and adventure are gone?
"Topeka, Jan. 15" reads a date line in Sunday's Kansas City Star. Shucks, that's nothing—the weather man thought so too.
A recent survey in Missouri ha-
revealed how little young people know
about the Bible. They'll be finding
out next how little we know about
our lessons.
Our Congressmen have been so busy with the oil scandal investigations that they haven't had time to send out the usual quantities of garden seed. How are we going to know for whom to vote in the coming elections?
AS THE ROMANS DO
AS THE ROMANS
When I was in Rome I tried so hard
To do as the Romans do;
A bit of a dance and a bit of a song With laughter sifting through.
A careless kiss serenely given
And a heart held fancy-free.
It was all very well for the Roman born.
But it was not good for me.
or I could not dance, and I never could sing.
And my laughter would not ring true;
And whenever I gave my lips away
My foolish heart went, too.
So now I'll sit by the Roman road
And watch the world go by;
When I see a lass that looks like me
"Do not go to Rome!" P哭 cly.

Campus Opinion
Business methods are seldom found in use at educational institutions. Practically, in even the little chin, is not the custom.
Not that the think they can be better instructors than those already on the job—although in some case they undoubtedly could—but it very irritating to have assistant management piled on and nec diversed.
Professors practice such slipspoken methods and wonder why they often incur the disdain of the students. They will be surprised at a university if the students are to respect the place and the faculty. Too often an instructor assigns a lesson and the next time the class gets touched upon. The same facties are repeated for a week—and sometimes more. The students become disgusted at this bobbing about it in the classroom, or get any benefit from such teaching.
Business
This is the day of higher pressure in collegiate circles but the times also call for more business-in methods of doing the work.

Don't give a cap "too much rope"
Just when you're hurrying the most — zipi and away goes that shaving cream cup. The new cap on Williams's mouth makes it tight. It hugs on and can't get lost.
In shaving, too, Williams has just as noticeable improvements: Williams lather is heavier and more closely woven. It holds the water *in against* the beard. Result: quicker softening. Williams lather lubricates the tating friction. Last, Williams is clearer to the skin. It keeps your hair out of no matter how thick or how tender your skin. There's no coloring matter in Williams—it is a natural white, absolutely pure. Say "Williams Hinge-Cap" youtouder,el.
