The women have had their balance. They had the thrill of arranging it, of cutting in, they fitted a long-coveded vest of choosing their "dates," of calling them up. They fooled the bills, they traded the dances. In short, they were accorded all the privileges that custom has always given the men; save one—that of calling for their secrets. And it was this that the men desired they should do more than all the rest. They wanted them to wait while they gave a last fond pat to their tie and one parting, vigorous stroke to their curly legs. They wanted them to walk in their room-house or fraternity living room a full fifteen minutes while they peeked through the stair rails to see what they looked like and how they were dressed. And revenge would have been sweet! We wonder. But it's all over. And even though the women have proved that they can get "date"s and take them to the Varsity in the approved manner, would they want to continue doing it? LIFE-SAVING RADIO In the near future plays are to be broadcast d by radio. Probably old Bill Shakespeare had this in mind when he wrote "All the world's a stage..." LIF S-5473 Within all absurd America has within the loss of two of her greatest men, Warren G. Harding and Woodrow Wilson. High in their ideals and feauses in the leadership of their respective parties, they have left behind them millions of friends to mourn their deaths. The passing of these two great leaders, coming at a time when their influence was vitally important in shaping the policies of the nation, is double regretable in view of the cause of the fatal illness in each case. President Harding, while touring the country on a speaking tour last summer, found the task too great for his strength. The best of medical care could not make up for his over-taxed physical condition—and he was gone. About four years previously, Woodrow Wilson, then president, attempted the same kind of a tour with the same result. Broken in health, reduced to the state of an invalid, Mr. Wilson finally succumbed to the inevitable, plunging the nation once more into mourning. In striking contrast to these two cases is that of President Coolidge. From a comparatively inconspicuous figurehead in politics, Coolidge suddenly became the head of the nation. Great issues were confronting him, and everyone wanted to know just where he stood. The new president was as anxious as his predecessors had been to place his platform before the people, and the result was his message to Congress broadcasted over the radio to all parts of the civilized world. For a few hours President Coolidge, from his headquarters in Washington, spoke to millions of persons whom Presidents Wilson and Harding had sacrificed their lives to reach. For its qualities of entertainment the radio has won a host of friends, but its value does not end there. Great things have been accomplished by the use of radio and it may become the life-saver of America's statesmen. --there will be a meeting, nittee at 3:20 Monday, Feb. 18, in the graduate office. E.

Every dancer is assured of one admirer of his dancing. Two, if his partner is learning to dance. MEASURING UP The total "mortality" statistics are not yet known, but the number who flunked out' last semester is already efficiently great to inspire serious thought. Flunking does not always mean cardlessness on laxiness on the part of the student, nor does it always means a complete failure to grasp the subjects taken. In some cases, it simply means that the student has been unable to measure up to the standards required by the University. Each year, it seems, these requirements grow more high. The result is a large number of failures among the students, but it is more than just that. It is a raising of the scholastic standing of the University of Yankee. The students' part in this program, is to get busy and conform to the requirements. They know from past experience what is expected of them. They must know that they must devote an increasing amount of their time to serious, conscientious study. And the time to begin this reformation is -right now. It might be believed that the real some professors are not affected y flatten is because they never get ny. THE GREAT AMERICAN SPEEDWAY Why does every orchestra leader strive to produce the last word in jazz? He puts a screecher on the rombone, mutes the cornet, and hirs a boy who can talk on a clarinet. All this would not be so bad, but the music is written so that every wail and groan is especially featured. It looks at a glance like the modern orchestral strives to keep up with a mob of dancing, thoughtless, manices, bent on tearing their way through life. But can all this be wondered at? The whole world is in the throes of wild, unmanageable turmoil and thought. Forbes vies with Fall in sinking the lowest in graft. Murder is the highest pastime in "Bloody Williamson," while booze causes the murder of an actress in New York. More with shotguns guard the modern streets, and prisoners fight for freedom with loss of life and honor. Crausted artists and writers attempt to force fanatical rubbish upon the public. Ultra-modernism, super-intellect, and free -thought makes a nadhose of anything. This is the true age of chaos as far as the United States is concerned, but there is no need of alarm. Beneath the surface of all is the leveling influence of sensibility which has always come to America's rescue. The modern song plays for the applause of the white lights. If the United States would take on an era of sorbness, the music and drama of the nation would follow suit in order to please. And smiled and coply hung her head, "And I was wrong and you were eight.

WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY: Friday, Feb. 22, is a holiday, and there will be no classes. E. H. LINDLEY. WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY; The performance last night was surprisingly well-balanced and smooth. From the leading roles down to the 'Milford, the carriage waits without" parts, the cast was almost uniformly good. The play concerns an American family and an English family both of whom despair the other's nation, the American despises England for its condescension, the Englishman for the American's brusqueness and forwardness. There are moments of satirical burlesque, some of straitliness, and a few of rather old tricks. But the bokum was used as a tool by Mrs. Colburn were quite capable, and Mrs. Colburn could play any other part may be doubtful, but he played Hiram Draper last night to practical perfection. His son, played by another well-known杰克莱维 parts which has been seen here this season. Mr. Morris started out in the approved matinee idol manner, but soon came awake and was liked by all the audience before the end of the play. Lumeden Harcourt the old Englishman was quite plausible as the Englishman, but his chaeter seemed to be overdrawn continually. which probably accounts for why London did not like the show, yet patronized it for over a year. The play may have played out in the English and their lives have always seemed more or less boring, after a short while. Fine all in all, the film was mighty fine and wholesome entertainment, On Other Hills **Reform** is not meeting with very much success on the campus of Minnesota.

He can't make him tone down his appearance at once. Many men confuse correct dress with extreme fashion. The two are as different as civility and servility. Correct dress is wearing a long, loose soft. Extreme fashion is anling for the admiration of others. Meiers, Lee and J. J.
